[Hellnezuela]

[slazinger]

Is that an axe fx?

[cataclysmichael]

@slazinger

Yes it is.

[slazinger]

@cataclysmichael wow that's a bit expensive but It sounds just awesome as far as I can hear in this video

[DjoleObr]

Tune?

[0Erazoender0]

How the shittitballs did you get fucking KRIMH to drum for this O_O I literally watched the first few seconds like 20 times to make sure it was indeed him...

[cataclysmichael]

@0Erazoender0

I just asked. Nothing fancy, haha.

[hernandezurbina]

AWESOME!!!

[DimmuB1]

Everytime i want to ear Cataclysm children, i just play your video.

Awesome job guys !!! keep up with the good work !



[cataclysmichael]

@DimmuB1

[mingamlehummer]

@95TurboSol Krimh from decapitated

[orriz]

Good job!

[supersawneekfan]

Amazing!!

[cataclysmichael]

@Tristan666ful

Thank you!

[slim0221]

Will you guys be doing another duo cover anytime soon? you should

[cataclysmichael]

@slim0221

As krimh (drummer) have become a rockstar now, I can't see that happening, haha.

[slim0221]

@cataclysmichael did he ask you to make a duo cover or did you ask him? and do you guys know each other in real life?

[cataclysmichael]

@slim0221

I think it was I that asked him. We have never met before, hehe.

[slim0221]

@cataclysmichael Why don't you do some covers with Uge he is a great drummer, you should ask him

[cataclysmichael]

@slim0221

We talked about that a while ago actually. I just have to work out a couple of things in my life first.

[slim0221]

@cataclysmichael Cool, i think you guys would get loads of views, go for it!

[00ABUTRE00]

Dudes, this is the most epic cover I've ever seen. I've seen it countless times, and I still keep coming back for more.

[cataclysmichael]

@00ABUTRE00

Thanks a lot :)

[00ABUTRE00]

Epic fckin cover you guys.

[magnusrecords]

WATCHING THIS MAKES ME WISH I DIDN'T HAVE A DAY JOB! I WOULD LOVE TO DO THIS ALL DAY, SUPER CLEAN ON EVERYTHING TO!

[cataclysmichael]

@magnusrecords

Me too. Sucks to waste such huge amount of time just working.

I just play the lottery and wish :P

[ThePace96]

@magnusrecords damn dude..buy a guitar.. :D

[urmomismexican]

[ced69]

well done mate!

[cataclysmichael]

@ced69

Thanks. I used a sony hdr sr-11.

[TheHeadcrusher789456]

WOAHHHHHHH

[friend1990]

fucking epic.

[queenmcsleaze]

this is actually fantastic

[ixb1oodwolfxi]

mad mad props, that was fuckin sick, nice editing and i nice drumset

[Boya4all]

it´s 4 o´clock in the morning , cming from a party :D ... just wanted to listen to a fucking badass Cover. I think after this one , i will sleep very well , thanks for that :D

[cataclysmichael]

@Boya4all

Lol. Should've waken you up :P

[Boya4all]

@cataclysmichael Ok :D ... i watch it again to wake up x)

[AcTNBumpChannel]

I WANT THAT DRUM KIT

[LastDayInSin]

Drums are just a tad off in parts, but overall a very high quality cover, kudos fellas :)

[angrepspanser]

Awesome work, metalheads! Respect!

[Unintelligenda]

Wow dude, you guys are fucking sick. I would have liked to have seen a bit more lighting around the drummers left foot, just to to be able to see that awesomeness a bit easier. Aside from that side note everything else was absolutely fucking brutal.

[derikk123]

You guys kick some fucking ass! Death to all but metal!!!!!!!

[smoak666]

oh well thanks bro

[mephisto121]

nice, very nice, 5/5

[TheSoyuken]

hey your covers are fantastic man! really great job there.. just a question.. the poweramp is vht/fryette 2/90/2 or 2/50/2? keep it up all the way,cheers!

[cataclysmichael]

@TheSoyuken

Hey, thanks! It's a vht 2502 :)

[smoak666]

hey what kind of video editing software did you use for this? is it free? lol

[cataclysmichael]

@smoak666

Final cut. No, it´s not free. And it´s only for mac. I´ve also used sony vegas for pc. Aso not free :P

[Frightenedfear]

This awesome guys. I really like it, keep up the good stuff!

You've got my respect

Keep it loud

[dud666]

To be honest, I like it more than the original. Sounds good when all the keybord stuff remains at the background. Wish Dimmu made an album without the whole orchestra shit. Nevertheless - great job.

[93omair]

4 jealous faggots dont like this mindblowing cover

[gildrummer1]

@93omair hahahaha LOL!!!

[mixerlo]

fuckin sick, 5*

[enrhoads]

you guys are fucking amazing. keep rocking.

[enrhoads]

you guys are fucking amazing. keep rocking.

[helpcurecatholicism]

Simply awesome

[cyrius666]

Do you have a tab for this? The one I have compared to this seems wrong as hell

[cataclysmichael]

@cyrius666

Nope. Use your ears ;)

[morbidouswrath]

this is great work guys ! keep it more dark nd brutal

[LeeandSteven1235]

why do you have Krihm in the video?

[cataclysmichael]

@LeeandSteven1235

Because he's awesome! Duh.

[LeeandSteven1235]

@cataclysmichael i know lol i subscribed to him like 3 years ago xD

[XXXGravenHeavenXXX]

Fuckin' hell that is brilliant.

[cataclysmichael]

@XXXGravenHeavenXXX

Thanks for subscribing :)

[Cizevun]

Okay that was so fucking awesome I can't even put it in words! \m/

[cataclysmichael]

@Cizevun

Thanks man! :)

[Dzejk16]

Hi Michael. What option do you recommend me ( i play jazz, but from time to time i like to play heavy music ), Mesa Boogie Mark V / Road Kin II with Ultra or Fryette 2/50/2 with Ultra ? Fryette with Ultra can sound exactly like tube amp ?

[cataclysmichael]

@Dzejk16

I wouldn't replace my 2502 and ultra with anything, so I guess I'll recommend that :)

You can make the ultra sound like anything you want pretty much :P

[austrianmetalfan]

@cataclysmichael thats really great dimmu is the best blackmetalband in hell

[drummer92101356380]

que chimba de video

vestial

[YancyAdan]

Nice, 100% accurate like the CD, if you guys are looking for a piano/synthesizer player, Im available, just call me at my house (915) 849-0602 Yancy

[cataclysmichael]

@YancyAdan

We're not a band or anything. We just did this video for fun :P

[wlambert32]

hey what do you record your guitar with man i have a powerball an it runs amazing through a mesa cab

[cataclysmichael]

@wlambert32

It's the axe-fx.

[thediscipline02]

this performance is damn near flawless good stuff fellas. a note on the production though, when you put a limiter on the track you squashed it a little too hard, i can hear everything getting quieter every time there's a big kick drum hit. its called pumping. overall nicely done though!

[cataclysmichael]

@thediscipline02

Just kind of a parody on the dimmu albums :P

[xXTHEDOUCHEBAGXx]

What tuning is this in?

[sadfkdf]

cara voce  toca muito voce e foda

eu só do brazil parabéns

[psychostew911]

Holy shit, you guys rule ! You must be freakin' rich Mike ! :P 5/5

[cataclysmichael]

@psychostew911

Thanks. Yeah, I wish! Still have a lot of loan to pay back :P

[yofajah]

ya dudes well done. drumming and guitar both sic!

[CodyMac1234]

Fuck, that was devestating. Good shit on behalf of both of you.

[EuphoricDeathMetal]

WTFFFF !! WTFFF !! WTFFFFFFFF!! holy shit very nice :D omg i want to play like you :D *****

[cataclysmichael]

@EuphoricDeathMetal

Who's stopping you? :P

[EuphoricDeathMetal]

@cataclysmichael i think its very difficult :D how long did you train this song ?

[cataclysmichael]

@EuphoricDeathMetal

I didn't really practice on this one technically, just played through it to memorize what to play you know..

[sidedead92]

Unholy fuck....

5/5 and sub !

My one of my fav drummers and guitarists on youtube in one video :)

[cataclysmichael]

@sidedead92

Thanks for subscribing man :)

[mad00002]

Really nice work guys! You can really see the effort put into making this video.

It looks like your pinky is allergic to the fretboard when you play the last lead parts. ;)

[cataclysmichael]

@mad00002

Hahaha. I know... It looks like a claw of a little crab or something... disgusting! :P

[Skywalkerfamily]

What are your thoughts on the Axe-fx metal sounds ? Especially compared to he high end tube amps you own/have owned. I might consider buying one of those to get an inspiring sound even on headphones cause POD's kinda hurt my ears :) Thx !

[cataclysmichael]

@Skywalkerfamily

Well, I sold my ENGL Invader, so that explains a lot, hehe. I seriously don´t think I will get another amp again. The axe is just perfect for me! :)

[Drummerdrok666]

Really dont like the song, but the playing was SICK... 5/5

[cataclysmichael]

@Drummerdrok666

Thanks!

[Tardy13]

Holy crap this is sick

5/5

[cataclysmichael]

@Tardy13

Thanks for rating :)

[Drummerstefen]

Great job man!!! 5 stars

How did u get the match up video with pro tools ? What did u use? And how did u get the split screeen????

Thxs man

[cataclysmichael]

@Drummerstefen

Recorded the sound and video separately and got the same thing from Krimh and then edited it together in final cut afterwards where I also fixed the split screen.

[95TurboSol]

2:50 The best drum rythem ever! Back when I had a drum set I used to play that part over and over utill peopl were annoyed lol.

[nmbr1kornfan]

fucking outstanding. dimmu borgir4ever

[ChrisEpperson90]

wat an honor it is for you to collaborate with Decapitated's drummer. this is outstanding, you're truly a great guitarist

[cataclysmichael]

@ChrisEpperson90

Sure was! He wasn´t their drummer at the time, but I knew it was only a question of time until he would join a band like that :)

[nailsarecruel]

I love how you bring all the individual parts together in the windows. Clean quality and well lit also.

Quality playing, the both of you.

[arheru]

This is just so impressive - niiiice! =)

[waynegacy666]

IMHO the drums are overcompressed (being the snare the most compressed), if you notice in the verse the Snare adds compression to all the mix

[cataclysmichael]

I know, haha. But have you heard the dimmu records? Pretty damn compressed! Now I´m a noob at compressing so it sounds way more cheesy, but it was fun to bloodcompress the thing :P

[waynegacy666]

If you want to know about compression:

1st: You must know the use of each parameter (Threshold, ratio, attack, release, knee...)

2st: You must know what makes the compression and how to obtain that sound.

Most people don't care about Attack and Release, but I think the Release is one of the most important factors. A high release on Cymbals make them bounce, it sounds like off time but it rules

[cataclysmichael]

The only thing I know is that it takes years to truly master the compression stuff.

[damnationofsociety]

@cataclysmichael that it does! You still did a pretty good job. Its still a great cover, plus you got one of the sweetest drummers on youtube to help out. Krimh is a fuckin beast. Not sure if thats how his names spelt. lol

[chokolate999]

man u guys rocked this killer tune good job :D!

[sednonsatania]

esta bien fino su video good work

[pokerstaaars]

dimmu has a very unique sound... i love the guitar, galder rules.. your not too bad either dude!

[tadigrat]

[shehanster]

[cataclysmichael]

[DetBlirSkitBra]

[willxiam22]

[MurderSoul216]

You live in Norway, yet you cover a pseudo-black metal band? Pathetic.

[cataclysmichael]

Ok. Explain.

[MurderSoul216]

I can't help you unless you know the difference.

[cataclysmichael]

Difference of what?

[MurderSoul216]

Real black metal, vs the fake.

[cataclysmichael]

Fake metal, lol. Grow up kid, it´s only music.

[MurderSoul216]

That's where you are wrong, "kid".

[cataclysmichael]

Whatever.

[ph0b0rz]

lol.

[we55y88o]

I searched YouTube for this song and thought that I would see a decent cover of it. But now, I'm amazed. You just covered my fav. song by this bandwith style! 5 stars from me.

[cataclysmichael]

Thanks for subscribing man :)

[jamiepoultonadult]

not used to seeing you with a six string ahah

[cataclysmichael]

Hehe, most of my videos is with 6-strings though :P I´ve just moved more and more over to 7 and 8 lately. Haven´t forgot about the 6 though!

[Hawkallica]

great cover! I would like the hear the song without the original track though! If you have it handy you should upload it! Great job guys!

[cataclysmichael]

Thanks. I don´t have the project files anymore, so I can´t remove the original track. Just guitar and drums is a bit boring though :P

[jackmenot]

The drummer (Krimh) is the new drummer of Decapitated.

[cataclysmichael]

Really? That´s awesome if it´s true!

[victordf1979]

[cataclysmichael]

Axe-fx yes. I connect it to my soundcard and record into pro tools. That´s it. Simple :P

[Modrogh]

Man. You're certainly the best youtube player of all! I LOVE YOU! I just can't understand your skills :o

[cataclysmichael]

Thanks. I´m certainty not the best youtube player when it comes to skills. I do put more time in editing and stuff then most other youtube players I think though..

[Modrogh]

I've seen tens, maybe hundreds and you are certainly the best!

[cataclysmichael]

Haha, there´s a lot of shit out there too :P Thanks anyway :)
