Bass'n Drum 2006 - Adrian Erlandsson

[ProfessorBastard]

I hate cradle of filth, but this guy is excellent.

[Marcus666Sund]

Kerry King said that Adrian hits the drum like a fag, but at the same time, he thinks that Corey Taylor is the best singer after Tom Araya. He is so fucked up!

[JewfroTheDrummer]

@Marcus666Sund Kerry King is a asshole, the only reason why I ever liked slayer was because of Dave Lombardo.

[TheOnlyHorizon]

is there any hq version of swansong of a raven without vocals???

[95Rippo]

The HHX china on the right is amazing!!

[JewfroTheDrummer]

Why is adrian such a beast!!!!!!

[haimstelken]

his drumming is very "organic"..compared to more "robotic" metal drummers such as nick barker...Nymphetamine is a great example of simple passionate drumming..!!

[9705CHRIS]

Daniel

[robbymadore]

very solid, he's dope. cradle of filth is the shit.

[THEGATHERING20]

Just watched AT THE GATES 2008 reunion dvd and fuck me Adrian defo stole the show, what a monster, his footwork is amazing and hand speed in godly.

[Vangolas]

Daniel Win [Vote Here]

[rty2ful]

@Vangolas boooooooooo

[svartmetall48]

I preferred the stuff that Adrian did with At The Gates - that truly showcased his talent if you ask me. If you doubt it, I suggest that you look up some of the drumming on "With Fear I Kiss the Burning Darkness" by At The Gates - that CD is chock full of amazing drumming.

[Forgotten1333]

woow, like his brother D.

Greetz from the Netherlands

[LukeHeavyshield]

Adrian And Daniel Erlandsson.... Best Combo out there Since Mario & Luigi. lol

[KHfan4ever23]

hes really good! not as good as his brother imo

[RaggedGrim]

just listen to godspeed on the devils thunder

[balerinauzicka]

kerry said that he hits drums like fag.

[labigithastaetmeadam]

@balerinauzicka kerry is a fag, ,adrian is the man.

[balerinauzicka]

@labigithastaetmeadam whatever....

[MICHAEL71475]

@balerinauzicka that's the entire reason i came here just to see if he did but he looks normal

[LHondrums]

daniel and adrian.. man the two bros play in badass bands. overall i'd say that adrians drumsound and style is a bit more raw than daniels. but just as good.

[ShygunS]

This guy is better than Joey

[moralnipatuljak1]

Bass'n Drum 2006 - Adrian Erlandsson

Where is the bass? X)

[bounty2444]

hes alright...hes probably just a little higher than joey jordison

[Khazanah]

Fag or not, I guess his beat is kinda groovy. ;)

[danieljordison0793]

anyone know what kind of china is that i know its an hhx but its not the regular one

[the5thcolum]

@danieljordison0793 looks like the 14" HHX Evolution China

[vinsanimo]

@the5thcolum i was thinking the same thing, but it looks way bigger then 14".

SABIAN HELP US OUT DOOD!!!!

[necrosatanico]

"He hits like a fag"

Kerry King.

[PureMetalDrummer15]

@necrosatanico Hahaha I just read that on wikipedia.

[kozer1000hehe]

@PureMetalDrummer15

Hah me 2 and wanted to check it out

[xIcarus227]

@necrosatanico Kerry King is the apex of gayness in heavy metal so him saying that is a bit awkward xD

[6sic666666]

Whats with the bitching?! He played promise of fever people! Come on!

[RiffsandBridges]

He has some skills I see....But Bill Ward try to listnin' to Bill Ward and you'll see some magic on drums.

[TheMoondrum]

He should be on cradle of filth !

Not noob marthus

[shuiichiro]

@TheMoondrum

he was. hehe.

[passionoflovers]

@TheMoondrum hahah Marthus kicks this dudes ass so many times

[morganix007]

@passionoflovers U got that right! Marthus is a fucking machine dude!

[Aheadstix85]

@morganix007 Im sorry, but adrian is average compared to Marthus, Marthus like Kollias is just a freak!.

[morganix007]

@Aheadstix85 Did I just say something like Adrian is better that Marthus??? Never in my live!!! Marthus is SUPREME!!!

[Tylerthemetalking]

@Aheadstix85 Don't compare marthus to george, george would crush him hands down.

[widgetmcblibber]

@TheMoondrum agreed

Adrian was by far Cradles best drummer

[thispagesux]

@widgetmcblibber lol, nick barker was the best cradle drummer by a mile.

[thoseyesdissapear]

@thispagesux yes nick barker was the best =)

[morganix007]

@widgetmcblibber You are really really blind dude!

[drumdemon3]

whats with all the dissing on this vid? hes playing a song for god sake,its not a solo or him trying to show how good he is,hes playing a damn song

[409Bullet4life3RYAN3]

@drumdemon3 I know, cause if you listen carefully, you can hear it in the background.

[BoomHaaften]

He can do better

[Linklogin]

this is Sweason for a raven !!! Suck's

[danieljordison0793]

@Linklogin its swansong moron

[ZqazwashoshosZyiyi]

this is not good at all...

[shunsky115]

WEAK AS HELL!!!!!!

[misdrummer]

@shunsky115

bullshit.

[ShygunS]

this man IS cradle of filth

[NerfLad]

I wish he was still in the band :(

[shunsky115]

weak as hell

[crayonitred]

i love adrian, but i gotta agree for this particular vid

[crazyweirdo125]

@shunsky115 like hell that was and he can also kick you arse look how big he is

[jjdrummer108]

the audio quality sucks but i still know that fucking china. i hate it with a passion. I love the ride though :)

[furnaze]

BRILLIANT!

[Krig666]

average? you're out of your goddamn mind. just because he doesn't get to fancy with it doesn't mean he can't. he chooses to play somewhat simplistic for an overall better song. i've seen adrian shred on the drums and it's more than your "average" little brain can comprehend.

[REDTEARS667]

shut up dude. he's an average drummer. im not saying he's bad, dont get me wrong. but he's not fantastic is he?

[morganix007]

@REDTEARS667 well u got to listen to the Cradle Of Filth songs that he recorded, although their new drummer is way better. But u have to give Adrian some credit.

[eisernteufel]

have you listened to the drums in early at the gates?

[sgklaeb]

Adrian shreds!!!!! totally agree

[MrANEASIERQUESTION]

@Krig666 yeah i see what you mean!!! he is very solid! he sorta had a bit of a crack on Damnation and a day at cutting loose!! im not saying he is bad drummer! but he can be very stock and uninteresting considering how crazy other bands drummers are! I like how the new drummer puts some Rick Flair in at some choice moments!!!

[SaludaUser]

@Krig666 he is averaged compared to the range that say todd sucherman has.

[Justs99171]

@Krig666 This guy is average? Average for what? Who said that? What is average? That's some pretty stupid shit to say. The scope of drumming is much to broad to even begin defining what is 'average.' Some people obviously suck, but the guy in this video isn't one of them.

[COBHC279]

Hes a decent drummer but this is average at best!

[cnnre2005]

My favourite Drumer and favourite Band.

This song is called Swansong for a Raven.

[Devil2Metal]

wow right when i read this the piano part came on and i knew what it was

[darkdeath480]

@cnnre2005 cradle of filth

[doublekick777]

check the double kick fill at 1.00 min how even is that not to mention the speed and execution!(no triggers needed) sweet.

[venpresath]

>.> adrian suited cradle of filth better.. in appearance lol.

marthus is fucking AMAZING though

[SuperColossal33]

he suited at the gates the best!

[Seek1Destroy1]

I love the sound he gets from this solo. Certainly not as complex as some of the stuff Marthus or Hellhammer come out with, but I'll give Adrian this:

He's got the vibes, man!!!

}:={D-

[artdrumming]

This is not a solo performance.He plays a song but you can't really hear the other instruments.

[alexthedrummer666]

well come on, who can compare with "the chosen legacy?"

its not adrian's style, from what ive noticed, he's not trying to go 290+ (though im sure he's capable of it), he's just matching up with the guitars, which is the way drums are meant to be played

[Serillian666]

Adrian and Daniel are kinda different, Adrian is ALOT more gallopy with his playing, Daniel has more of death metal approach.

[mrbateman00]

It's like watching people argue over which is a better turd sandwhiches. No this ones better. WTF?

[annamolly41]

I think Adrian is just like Joey Jordison. He sounds like a machine. Not always like Jordison, but most of the times. THATS WHY I THINK DANIEL IS BETTER. Daniel is the KING.

[lossofthoughts6]

Dude, don't EVER compare Adrian Erlandsson the joey again. That is a fucking disgrace.

[Thehardyzfan]

Pretty Sure Adrian is much better

[jossy2112]

either way....at the gates is 110 times better than Arch Enemy..regardless of whose the best drummer. And Adrian was one of the biggest contribution in At The Gates

[Linklogin]

Swansong for a Raven. very good song

[venpresath]

o.O to me it sounds like foetus of a new days kicking..

but i know you're right lol

[thepactissealed]

boring

[BleedzForYou]

Swansong for a raven <3

[JoshMetalHead]

daniel (his brother) is better

[smilerrules]

adrian its the best drummer for my

[Roftle]

cool, he's playing Swansong for a Raven...

would sound better though if you heard the music to ^^

[biggt96]

badd ass drummer but such an easy rhythm to play on the drums just repetitive

[Aheadstix85]

personally i prefur daniels style more.

[shlempnar]

daniel who?

i like this guy he has such a beefy style and he plays like he is performing with a band.

[T3ke0ut]

daniel erlandsson. adrian's younger brother. il admit that adrian has a very gud drumming style but for me, i prefer daniels more.

[CoBiMoH]

I agree with u :)

but both are really good

they fuckin rock :D

[zznarcolepsy]

It's as if he was demonstrating a list of the most over-used beats in metal since the 80's. Very Predictable and uninspired.

[slowvision]

Sounds pretty nice to me... How it remains RElaxed ,at the same time so Very quick.. and it has flow ..minute 1,14 Im thinking : Oh, wait a minute, gotto repeat it " and then I like the maybe indian-like drumming from 1,35 on.. for some seconds, and another roll.. yep its metal .its very pushing forward, i wouldnt wanna call it agressive. .and it's not boring ! I repeat Not boring : )

[krokikrisi]

he looks like angry or something... quite agressive with that crash...

[makkan2]

boring

[Linklogin]

adrian better daniel

[steinderll10]

very good drummer, but it's best daniel

[somos999]

Shame how people compare 2 brothers who do the exact same thing...

[SICMAGGOTGR]

Damn those sabian cymbals sounds so sweet.

And remember Adrian teached Daniel,both brothers kick ass

[777drummerofdeath777]

great drumming, constructed and very fun to watch!

[Metaliiik]

this is a song from Cradle of Filth Swansong for a Raven that?And by the way great work:-D

[flaze15]

it's GABRIELLE

[waterintoblood]

i felt sorry for the china crash

[tteomann]

yea, i agree to you. What a kind of china..

[Linklogin]

Swansong For A Raven

[DarkDrummer65]

The better between Daniel and Adrien is Daniel sure !

[fromustocolombia]

heck no just that this song is freaken easy but you should see how adrian cuts his tempo and his double bass speed is amazing

[DarkDrummer65]

Each of these tastes but I prefer Daniel for her speed when he played on the toms

[kciskciskcisremmurd]

have you heard his adrians stuff from at the gates?

[behemoth65]

Brief, the Erlandsson brothers are the better drummers !

[chelopatrick]

basic

[metalmindz]

men you are refering to at the gates drummer

[kacrothjmwb]

this guys good but i still think daniels a whole lot better =]

[Mikkysixx]

Poor cymbals! Good thing he is endorsed :)

I don't like the way he can't keep the right bpm. He's slowing down...But still a very good metal-drummer though.

[Kyle242426]

This guy is a GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chinkilla666]

that being a CoF song would explain why the drumming sucked

[Deflectioneer]

What snare drum is that?

[QuikCopper]

daniel is better to me. idk. i'm just saying. he isn't using double bass, is he?

[xixu4xaldin]

he is, dont you see his feet moving?

[QuikCopper]

oh wait. yeah. he is. i mean he wasn't using double pedal.

[BTeeper]

he is using the double bass

[deathrealms]

is that china a hhx? looks like it......really light sound.....

[ArchEnemyBand]

fucking awesome!

[LukeHeavyshield]

daniel is better

[OdinsSpeer]

the to brother are beasts !!!!

[WhoRainZone666]

OMFG he is dawn good

[SICMAGGOTGR]

Adrian is better than Daniel.

And this is not solo this is a song which is Swansong For A Raven

[maserati1990]

douschebags...adrian got daniel into drumming and daniel admits that if it wasn't for adrian he may never have started to play drums...

this is also the drums for the cradle of filth song swansong 4 a ravn.

sicmaggot is right leave him alone you ignorant dumbasses

[triplextoto]

Adrian Teach daniel :)!..

[QuikCopper]

Adrian inspired Daniel to play drums. Both of them learned together.

[acidangelster]

i know they re brothers......but the younger one kicks more ass in my opinion

[21sabiandrummer67]

An example of some over the better metal drumming in the music industry

[usnavy102902]

A solo, ya know maybe some improvisation would be nice, instead of just playing along to a song... he's solid, but doesn't show anything overly impressive

[vivioilin]

daniel is still better in my opinion

[stealingchairs]

Adrian pwns daniel

[BahamutXXV]

Cant we all just get along or something? =/

[vivioilin]

jsut in my opinion. Sorry if you disagree

[BahamutXXV]

Nah, its totally cool. The comment was intended for the inflammatory people that can't get over the fact that people, in fact, can feel differently on a subject.

I just wish they could deal with those differences.

And as much as I like Adrian, I will say Daniel seems a lot more creative and tasteful with his playing.

Adrian has a lot of accuracy and power.

[vivioilin]

cool

im just glad i got over joey jordison.

i guess i needed to realise that speed isnt everything.

[BahamutXXV]

Good to know you've come around =)

[vivioilin]

haha definately

[SuperChuck3]

now that you've turned, check out guys like Jojo Mayer, Dave Weckl, or Stewart Copeland for starts :D

[maggotisme]

he shouldnt of left cradle, its not the same

[EternalSolstice]

I completely agree, I hate that bold guy

[magikarpp]

looks like he's having fun lol

that hhx china sounds awesome

[sanchetti75]

I miss adrian in the band :(

[dracone1]

welcome to paradise lost

[jta4207]

this is swansong for a raven

[Mysticyautja]

oooh lol, my bad

[vinsanimo]

wat china is that? hhx???

[ScAtMaN888]

sabian hhx

[vinsanimo]

18" or 20"?

[LastEternalBreath]

i think 20"

[Mysticyautja]

what a boring fucking drummer. goddamn

[XTXcalVinXTX]

if you cant tell, he is playing a cradle of filth song =/

[pjfitz111]

yh pheotus of a new day at the start innit?

[milanpaloyannidis]

this guy is quite boring

[metalliman14]

Adrians the man i definitely agree that kerry king is only living out life on past glories cause his not that great a guitarist. Long live adrian whatever he may be doing now...

[Avatarcheese]

I have the name of the song on my tongue. Swansong for a Raven?

[loekigkille]

Yes

[carcassgrindcorpsesc]

he makes the same things his brother does, they look like each other so much even on the things they do when they are playing :p

[Nautamies]

Yes and the only difference between them is their kit/cymbals and name :P

[AnguusYoung]

Cara e fodaaa !!

[drugculture]

boring slow thrash drumming.

utterly uninspired.

plus ATG suck balls.

Zach Hill. Lord Marco. Buddy Rich.

not this cunt.

[carcassgrindcorpsesc]

lord marco is the sloopiest drummer out there, are you serious?

[milanpaloyannidis]

dam right

[MorbidCorpse92]

Kerry King has sucked balls for so long, he thinks he's a hard guy with his big build, bald head and tats, so people fear and respect him, but really he's the fag. Adrian erlandsson is actually a talented individual and doesn't ride upon the reputation of the history of his band like kerry king does.

[Sentient7Seven]

amen.

[xfernydrummerX]

i agrees...kerry is notjing bu posses and looks, he's not even that great, but he thinks he's a BA witha ll of those tats

[Dimmuborgir6969]

kerry king shouldnt even be makig comments because hes a lousy ass guitarist...honestly theres alot better out now

[rhythmtandemplayer]

bass and drum at RHYTHMTANDEM.

[longlivepantera]

Remember when dave left slayer & they needed a replacement drummer? he was criticizing drummers, he said adrian hits like a fag, raymond hererra has no hands & joe nunez's mother wouldnt let him join slayer. He seemed to favor kevin talley though. He was the one who reccomended kevin talley to chimaira when andols left them.

Kerry queen lol...is a jerk, how in the world could he talk like that about these talented drummers, he's an idiot.
