Wage War - Low - Drum Cover

First of all do i want to say THANK YOU GUYS for the great response on my cover of Hell, the day after when i woke up and saw that so many had already seen it and that a lot of you guys liked it made me very happy!
This time did i went a bit softer, i’ve heard this track the same day it came out and really liked it, i used to listen a lot on Metalcore before but it kind of faded away as soon i started to play more deathmetal.. But i kind of want to do more covers from this genre in the future.. We will see!
Hope you guys will like this one, i really enjoyed recording it!
As always is this a one-take recording and mixed by Douglas Hammarstam. Hook him up on Facebook if you want some a great mix for you’re project.
If you wonder something just comment it down bellow! I try to answer all the comments i get!
