  • Your kit looks extremely Mike Portnoy influenced, am I right? :P Octoban full set, set of granite blocks, Sabian cymbals... bet you have Tama drums. ^_<

  • Nice version! I play this one from Live After Death - Nicko McBrain style. Check it out when you have time - I spent some time mixing it right, I think it sounds decent :) I like the wind chimes you've got there, adds a nice touch.

  • your kits too small... haha

  • Awesome! I just posted my drum cover of Hallowed be thy Name. I hope you check it out and let me know what you think.

  • NICE TRY!! KEEP GOIN DUDE..UP THE IRONS..

  • I suuuuuuure hope some of you critics out there can do it better yourself! Otherwise you're just another 250lb man tellin your buddies you'd never sleep with the 140lb chick at the end of the bar cuz she's to fat! haha Nice cover Mike! Good timing and speed!

  • MUY BUENA BATERIA.....

  • MUY BUENA BATERIA.....

  • good cover, but HOW DARE U PLAY A FAKE! U HAS DECEIVED IRON MAIDEN, AND EDDIE, SO EDDIE SHALL KILL U TONIGHT!  jk, but ur a good drummer

  • @989jer

    isnt eddie getting all of us? ;)

  • \m/ \m/ Fuckin nice cover dude.

  • in band class i have the woodblock cymbal thing all the way to the left hahahalololol

  • this man showed us at youtube how you can screw up this great song...i mean you can drum,but i saw a lot better covers than this...by example maxxmcbrain...

  • @marcosmitsrotterdam Dude I uploaded this two years ago...If I were to play it now, I'd play it a lot different. I would also play it to the Iron Maiden version. I had been considering redoing the cover to do the song justice and to make the drums sound better. But I've been busy with original stuff and haven't gotten around to it.

  • you definitely know how to play the drums, but you definitely do not play the "Hallowed br thy Name" drumming.

    You improvise and have too much of drum solo within the song. Crucial part is 5:45 - 6:23. You miss the magic pause at 6:12.

    It's not about having as many hits as possible. If that would be it then Nicko would have used each of his hands by the 3 times speed comp. to you.

  • Very good, please listen my drum cover!

  • from the Netherlands

    \m/ ' ' \m/

    Holland

  • what's your tom on the left of the high tom

  • @drummerguy4321 those are octobans, look it up. They're pretty much normal toms but they get their tone by depth instead of width like regular toms.

  • I saw that setup somewhere...oh yeah, Portnoy.

  • although i love nicko and his godly skills behind that wall of drums, i feel that you added so much fucking pzazz to an already pzazzy song!

  • good cover ! i don't like one thing,the sound of your snare drum.the rest of the set sounds good though.good job!

  • It's always strange to listen Iron Maiden songs without the Paiste sound...

    Great playing, anyway..

  • okay, Clive Burr, who made this song originally had some pretty impressive skill :)

    But we all know Nicko Playing this song makes it better.

    Awesome cover btw, didn't know that Iced Earth covered it, but like how you made it your own version 5* awesome!

    Keep it up :D nice kit too :)

  • i like your cover except for a one thing

    Nicko McBrain plays it the way that he does for one reason, he better than most drummers alive understands the value between notes is more valuable than the notes them selves.

    I like that you added a bit of fire to it, but i feel it takes away from the rest of the song, your playing too fast for this song, and it sounds messy because of it. (not that your messy)

    Other than over doing it (in my opinion) it was very well done.

  • Sick cover

  • this is a song from a cover band not really iron maiden

  • Has anyone noticed the vocalist (Matt Barlow?) kinda sounds like Jack Black, lol.

  • Such a nice fucking kit.

  • killer job man, your kit gave me a boner...

  • ur to good mike

  • aint those wind chimes in a perfect spot

  • can i have your drum kit lol

  • WHAT TOMS DO YOU HAVE, WHAT HEADSD ???? how do you make sound like that

  • cradle of filth aint true metal, no offence to cradle fans but it isnt, its screamo shit and its nt gona change, but i still rspect them forwhat they do.

  • Dude this is an Iced Earth cover of an Iron Maiden song...I don't know where Cradle of Filth comes in...lol.

  • Cos the Cradle cover of Hallowed is probably the more famous one out of the bunch. I prefer the Dream Theater version more. How much did you pay for that kit?

  • @Nexusdrummer88@ cradle of filth have done a version of hallowed be thy name and i think its shit cus it isent their stile no offense but i dont like cradle of filth

  • @Nexusdrummer88 They covered it, but messed up big time.

  • @HamburgerDuck by screamo i hope you mean black metal

  • @HamburgerDuck hahahaha ur fuckin stupid.

  • @HamburgerDuck and we see you aint real metalhead becouse you think this classic song is cradle of filths... damn

  • @HamburgerDuck lmao the original hallowed be thy name covered by cradle of filth belongs to iron maiden. And that 'screamo shit' happens to be black metal (in the first albums) and some sort of weird extreme gothic metal in the last albums. Hate the last albums anyway they ruined the whole idea, just like dimmu borgir on their last album.

    Anyway really cool cover. Got me inspired on some fills.

  • i prefer the way nicko plays now, im not real fan of burr, he looked kinda arrogant. He was good, but nicko rules

  • Executed nicely good job! :)

  • man why havent i got u kit GIMME ME XD

    gr8 cover but would have been better if u had layed in the maaster piece instead of a cover

  • I want your kit badly.. lol

  • i agree with leonjordison play cradle of filth's cover btw nice kit and good drumming

  • good drumming, up the irons and 14-88

  • Matt Barlow is a god but this def isnt his best.

    anyway its a cover people made for bruce Dickinson to sing not Barlow.

    Nice job anyway dude.

  • horrible version of hallowed (Iced Earth's), but good drumming anyway lol

  • Ronaldo

  • WOW this sucked. Just as Iced Earth. You're great but what the fuck? Playing a useless cover of the masterpiece instead of the masterpiece itself?

  • I hate this guy's voice. I am not saying that he can't sing, I just hate the voice.

  • I get what you're saying. No one can sing for Iron Maiden like Bruce does.

  • @Azuredrum

    Same, fucked up cover of Maiden is fucked.

  • I don't like your style at all! sorry

  • Nice drummin', keep it rockin'

  • The Cover of the Cover = bad combination.... nice try tho...

  • Everything is good except one main thing.... live Nicko uses the ride a lot and it sounds a lot better.... if u used the ride, it would be perfect

  • this drumset is like mike portnoy's drumset!!very nice cover too!!and Matt cannot singing like Bruce,as Bruce cannot sing like Matt...is it clear?

  • thats wicked mike u gotta play that for me next time i come over

  • nice set buddy

  • this guy cant sing

  • and you know nothing about singing

  • And u suck dude if u said that!

  • cool sound, u are great man, i like the way you play drum

  • very creative!

  • Its Barlow from Iced Earth. Hes no Bruce but Bruce is no Barlow. Different vocalists...both amazing.

  • wow who sings the song ?? this is no bruce

  • One of my favorites,never get tired of playing it...NICE JOB!

  • good sound quality brah, like that left handed china part, sumthing only picked up on when watching the drummer. iced earth nice, cool drum kit, portnoy sticks nice,
