[@NinjaSkittlez]

Regardless of reality, my head canon says that Alex is behind the camera moving it in and out making funny faces, So he put the mask on to see less of it to focus. The angry faces and threats of murder are real, and Alex has his eyes crossed going full tongue-in-cheek. Real? Probably not. But it certainly makes watching this video a trip.

[@deathdestroyer726]

Yep pretty sure he does the same on demolisher drum playthrough to ;D

[@MetalHunter-ct3rm]

Yea, its pretty epic ain't it. He does that because of the difference i tone that it makes from the other end, and it also allows him to hit the drums harder with less risk of breaking the stick, which also contributes to the tone change, making it snappier, and more aggressive

[@mikeox_is_small]

pretty sure in a 'reading comments' video Alex mentioned that he's prone to breaking his drumsticks if he uses them regularly (the tip toward the front).

[@TomPhotoix]

Vinnie Paul from Pantera famously did that for most of his career. It gives a beefier tome and allows more power.

One thing I really admire about this band is that despite how disgusting Evgeny is, he doesn't wear out his style by doing insane stuff constantly. Same thing with Alex. Let's be real here, this band is all about drums and vocals lol. But both of them excel above most in their abilities but don't abuse the powers. They've really dialed in a much more mature sound since the first albums where it was just constant chaos which was cool but I always found it kind of difficult to dial in a feeling listening to some of the older stuff. They really tapped into their sound with agony, yaga and demolisher. I'm excited to see what the future holds for these guys because they are really bringing this genre to a new level.

@@xboxlegend1242 He plays double strokes with his feet so his legs move at half the speed of whatever he plays since his foot is playing 2 notes for each leg movement. It's energy efficient, but it makes it so that he needs to trigger the bass drum in order to get a good, powerful sound since you simply can't make double strokes loud enough, or make the 2 notes of the double stroke sound similar enough in volume at high tempos, for death metal naturally. It's just the nature of the technique. Less tiresome, less volume.
