I hope you stay with benighted forever. If they get a new drummer (again, pls dont leave lol) , he's gonna have a hard time getting the drums right on all songs from Dogs Always Bite Harder than their Masters. Needless to say, you are a beast.

[@tdogg1281]

One of the bests drummers right here!!! Kevin is amazing.

[@groobey3387]

[@richardaaron4454]

Amazing job, you look incredibly relaxed and in the zone. Great playing, your style and grooves kept it very interesting and not boring or repetitive at all.

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

Thank you very much !!

[@-Miroslav]

What was the reason you can't bring your timbales?? 🤘🤘🤘

[@kobbskyy]

Awesome !

[@cazzdorak2502]

🔥🔥FIRE🔥🔥HELL YEA ....GO BOY!!!!

[@gavindont]

Greetings from Australia. Saw you guys at OEF '18 and you tore me a new fucking arsehole. Bravo chaps!

[@TheWitchOvAgnesi]

0:01 Yep, struggling with the tangle of IEM. Been there. And I don't even have to contend with a beard like you do.

[@yoyoz333]

whoa, Kevin are you using chain drives on your Trick pedals?

[@serbanlucian419]

When I can see you in Roumania?Maybe at Extrem Metal Fest Râșnov...

[@2goldplz]

Hello Kevin! I must say that your drumming is really inspiring. Every video is a killer. I am really curious about your pedal settings, and bass drum tightness. On both studio and live vids your footwork is always tight as hell. Before i was on max spring tension on my pedals and loose drum head, but now i am slowly going on medium to tight pedal settings and a tight head and i see increase in speed, control and endurance. Thanks in advance and keep destroying!!

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

Hey ! I don't really about the drumhead, it shouldn't be a part of a setting for double bass, it is a setting for the sound first. Sometime I play without trigger for Heavy Metal or Rock Music, so I need my bass drum to sound great. About the spring, it is tight at maximum.

[@2goldplz]

@@kevinparadisdrummer Thanks! It is the same reason why i kept my head loose for years... but tightening it up did help me a bit so i experimented. Thanks again tho!

[@luthfifuadi143drums2]

Man your vlog is beautiful. A vlog and a full video of you playing a set on tour, I love iiiit. And in the end of the video, is that tunak tunak tun by daler mehndi? Oh shit 😂

[@BozKiller]

excellente cette video!!!!!

[@LaCokaSoldierPL]

this tom's setting is the best

[@mauricewanink1452]

Awsome vlog Kevin!!

[@lightningman212xd6]

14:50 is just eargasm

[@Woobuz]

Wow, Reptilian played in ~280BPM with one foot blasts. That's sick! What is the bpm in original? 260?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

270 bpm !

[@Woobuz]

Still that's very hard to do 280bpm blasts with one foot. Extremely good job, Kévin!

[@rhythmlessgod7589]

You shouldn't have put everytime you mess up! I usually have to rewind and see what you are saying. This is a spectacular performance and I enjoy your videos!

[@Demonstealer]

Ok why the fuck was the PA blasting Punjabi dance music at the end. That's hilarious!!! HAHHA WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK!

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

Yep Tuant Tunak is the outro !

[@Corvus7159]

Was that fucking Tunak Tunak Tun playing after the set? Lmao. That was amazing Kevin, hope to see you in the US at some point!

[@5BILLIONplus]

Good job, my man.

[@gabrielthibaud3361]

Non mais tunak tunak à la fin c'est génial.

[@thegreatmolator9161]

Absolut Great

[@WildySouza]

Massive DRUMMING!! I saw some tape underneath your crash cymbals, Why? is there only on your crashes or also in other cymbals like ride..

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

After a couple of gigs I decided to put tape under all cymbals to lower a bit the volume and the sustain. When there are 2 backlines on a stage, if you use the second one, your drums is in front. These 3 meters seem ike nothing, but they really change how loud the cymbals are for the audience, especially for the 10 front raws. So to help our sound guy and give better sound to the audience, the tape was necessary.

[@warrenoids]

Don't tape it! Just use moongels!

[@OHSSVOH-xm8nv]

20:50 the moment I lose my shit in the pit 🤯

[@thepitoulife]

Merci pour tes vidéos c'est top ! (putain mais cette RIDE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

La meilleure que j'ai joué, et de loin franchement !

[@InfinityBassCannon]

What in ears are you using? I'm really impressed that you play as well even without the setup you're used to

[@pugmonzzz]

Just phenomenal playing. Do you have any plans on touring Canada in the near future?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

No, unfortunately...

[@pugmonzzz]

@@kevinparadisdrummer ahh, ok. If you ever are I'll be sure to be there. Also which zoom did you use to record the audio for this? It sounds pretty good!

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

It is a H4n @@pugmonzzz

[@marciochiabotto590]

Do you lose your abilities if you shave your beard?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

I hope not !

[@Ironsvillage]

He will lose his balance, it's like cat whiskers

[@TheWitchOvAgnesi]

@@Ironsvillage LOL

[@DutchMarko]

Awesome video and great meeting you in Eindhoven. Did you play with a click track?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

Like I said in the video, no

[@jna3341]

Is playing without glasses hard?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

Not really, for me it doesn't change anything

[@Demonstealer]

Damn!!! What planet are you from? That's some incredible drumming! And this coming from the guy who recorded 2 songs with you :P

[@ZemantiX]

And 2 killer songs that is! Your whole album is abso-fucking-lutely incredible!!!

[@Demonstealer]

@@ZemantiX thank you so much bro!

[@Noktivagore]

Hey Kevin, any North American tour?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

That would be awesome if someone can book this...but still, for a EU band, it is hard to go to the US, very expensive !

[@the6ig6adwolf]

How come you don't have a click running through your in ears along with the guitars and drums?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

A clic with the guitars and drums too while I'm playing drums too ? Come on, when you are a drummer, you are supposed to be able to give a tempo to everyone ;) Clic is needed if you have to synchronize sample to the music, but otherwise, if you have train with one, it is possible to play live without. The great about this is that you can adapt the tempo to how the audience react, to how the venue sound etc...

[@the6ig6adwolf]

@@kevinparadisdrummer fair enough. I've heard of some guys doing it before and was curious why you choose not too 🤘

[@warrenoids]

Weird question, but why is Julien barefooted?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

It is his signature, he is alway (with benighted) barefoot. He likes to feel the vibration of the stage. Maybe he is deaf in fact, he ask crazy monitor level sometime hahaha

[@warrenoids]

Haha, always write "always" with s please.

[@warrenoids]

Also what adidas are those?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

Dunno !@@warrenoids

[@warrenoids]

What was he saying to you in the beginning?

[@kevinparadisdrummer]

At the beginning, our sound guy is asking through the monitor to our guitar player Fabien if his monitor is okay for his guitar, and to check his microphone, then he ask me if I have enough of Fabien guitar, then he ask our second guitar player, before to ask me to play trigger, snare etc...

[@adizocker06yt53]

What Name have the Band

[@aditwani6562]

Benighted
