Vader - Xeper

[Tyme2Die]

What pedal are you using?

[Nihoggr]

@Tyme2Die

Axis AL-2, Classic Black edition. At the time of this video I was using Sonic Hammers, but lately I've been using Iron Cobra Felt hammers and sometimes Danmar 205 Hardwood Beaters.

I used to play with some pedals of an unknown series from Millenium. I still have them, I use them on my electronic kit. They have lasted with me over 8 years.

[MyLizardLOVER]

You did make a few mistakes but that double bass peddle was spot on! Keep it up!

[Nihoggr]

@MyLizardLOVER

Thank you for the honest feedback :)

[Vogeybear]

What kit are you using?

[Nihoggr]

@Vogeybear

The drums I am using here are Yamaha Stage Custom. The toms are 10", 12" and 14" but I don't use the 10" tom here. Bass drum is 20 inches. The snare is a Club Custom and 14".

You can find more info of my drum kit in a separate video I made years ago about it.

fuckin SICK!!!

i'd give it 5/5, but since YouTube changed the layout, i dont know how to do that ! lol

anyways, thumbz up man!

[Nihoggr]

@neil17z

Hahhahhah, sounds like a lot like myself!

I dislike the new layout and I also really dislike the new Facebook. I even had a hard time trying to find the "log out" button :D

Thanks for your comment and your good- willed rating :)

[whyduck78]

Tough one, huh? ;D Can't sleep and i thought i'll swim a bit in tube, Vader sprang to my mind and here i am again ;) You got to love Vader! I was lucky enough to see them few times, class!!! Have you heard Sothis? If you have problems getting their music, give me a shout, i've got all albums ;D Well, i think i do...

[Nihoggr]

@whyduck78

Hah, yes this is. In my early drummer years I wanted to play this song so much but I didn't understand how it was possible to do double bass for this long :D

I haven't seen Vader live, but one time I came really close but couldn't make to the gig.

Yeah I've heard of Sothis :)

[SuperMetalero666]

good job bro keep drumming =P u do it good ..btw HAIL VADER ! \m/

[Nihoggr]

@SuperMetalero666

Hail Lord Vader!

Wait, what?

Hah, anyways. Thanks for your comment!

[ASHBYHAYNES]

Even though I haven't started playing the drums....yet.....I think that this would be the hardest song by Vader to be played on the drums.....follwed by Wings and then by Lead Us!!!

That's just my predictions though....

GREAT JOB DUDE!!!

5*

[Nihoggr]

I think it is purely up to personal preferences as almost all Vader songs are HARD AS HELL :D

But I decided to cover this 'cause this song and Wings really got me into Vader (and Wings is way too difficult for me to cover, so...).

Thanks for the comment and rating, I appreciate the feedback :)

[18agess]

Great job man!

[Nihoggr]

Thanks, had fun trying to play Vader and I'm glad you liked it also!

[123Rovin666]

great drumming

[Nihoggr]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

[69RulezD00d]

You freakin rock dude...! this song does too i know how to play it (almost) on drums lol. But my feet get tired lol.

[Nihoggr]

Yeah, my feet used to get way too tired also! But in time I learned to play the double pedal slightly better and lighter.

Try changing the position of your drummer's throne, heh. It helps me to sit high and a bit back away from my set.

[69RulezD00d]

Okay thanks man.

[Nihoggr]

No problem!

[earthmother]

you got skill Man! after going a long time doesn't your shins hurt after a while? Keep on shredding!

[Nihoggr]

It used to hurt years back but not nowadays. It helps when you learn the right position for your throne and pedals, getting your legs in the right angle for yourself.

Thanks for watching and asking :)

[mongoloeyd]

this song is so fucking heavy, good playing to

[Nihoggr]

Yeah it's one bad ass song! Thanks for commenting.

[fukinblade]

yeah keep rockin like that \m/ and stay metal!!

[Nihoggr]

Thanks, man! I will :)

[fukinblade]

[Nihoggr]

Thank you, the song is awesome :) Quite simple in structure but it kicks ass like hell!

[PogoDude]

[Nihoggr]

Aye! :)

[velstritek]

good timing bro ;D

[Nihoggr]

I haven't forgotten ;) Still need to buy the record. Last time I checked my favorite record store they had ran out of it. I remember seeing a copy of the album in their shelves earlier.

[KORNBG]

real GJ!!!!!!! ttl respect !\m/

[Nihoggr]

Thanks a lot man, really nice to hear so positive comment :)

[BlackTeradrix]

Well, I was impressed if that makes you feel better.

[Nihoggr]

Yup, I'm a bit more happy about my work when someone says that they liked it.

[t0ko]

good stuff dude, cant wait to see how your vids come out on the new e-kit. my double kicks sound alot better now that i got 2 seperate bass drums:) look out fear factory, here i come!

[Nihoggr]

Yeah, we were already planning some video game covers with my band mate when I get the DTXplorer kit in about month or so :D

So the bass drum strokes are more cleaner now?

Hahhah yeah, Herrera is going to have to step aside now :P

[PogoDude]

dude...THX A LOT..... you got the time-ing perfect ... been a long time sice i wanted to see a drum cover of xeper :D THX again

[Nihoggr]

Sure, no problem. There were some issues with tempo but I don't think there were that many. Could help if I would be able to hear the music a bit more louder but my mp3 player doesn't play anything loud, hahhah.

[RKnickerbocker]

Dude!!! That was Freaken Killer! You are Hell on the double bass pedal.5/5....NO! 10/10

Reguardless of the messed up mp3!

[Nihoggr]

Thanks a lot man, very cool that you liked it so much. High praises and all, I'm thankful :)

I'm also glad that you saw through the mp3- issue!
