[Belgdor]

Ghost notes <3

[PillarsInTheSky]

Holy shit play drums for me

[Dennespt]

really tight man, really awesome, keep it up the PURE AWESOMENESS

[toxendon]

Teach me. Teach me EVERYTHING.

[zknix20]

This video and song combo is fucking mesmerizing.

[snubbflipper08]

Hell yeah man !

[gnarwhale11]

the human metronome!

[RumDrum15]

Incredible drumming dude. Mad props!



[DirtyPoopers]

holy balls...i feel like i should be paying for this

[schwaschwadrums]

this is nasty



[keithpwns]

Good fucking God. That breakdown at 1:35 ish is fucking amazing.

[SuperMina5]

Bro I just want to ask about you demon drive pedals? what can you say about the DD pedals?

[SCORPIOXDRAGON]

Also, I want you to title the album "a drummer's music for fucking".

[SCORPIOXDRAGON]

BTW, I would TOTALLY buy this, so you need to make this into a full length album cause I NEED to have this in my car . .....no vocals please.

[SCORPIOXDRAGON]

I'm only really gonna say this once and I think everyone will agree.

SCREW DOING COVERS!

This project you're working on is fucking AMAZING!!!!

The shit you're writing is so... "deliberate" (it's a compliment I've gotten in the studio, best way I know how to put it), it's like you're psychic. Like you sat down and was like "I think people will think it's awesome if I play........ THIS... to.... THIS guitar part." Like you just KNOW it's gonna be sick as all hell.

[TallestFiddle]

That's such a cool method for making the guitar parts, and it sounds awesome. Its like the opposite of a guitarist using superior drummer for their solo songs. Its really cool to hear a solo song made from the mind of a good drummer.

[PaulAJCMoreau]

fucking hell this sounds so brutal, love it!

[ryanpavlovic]

You have such a clean playing style man. You killed it!

[BADBOY131]

Personally I love the sample-based guitars in the songs you create it's unique,The riffs are pretty simple and it adds to the already amazing grooves the drums bring out.

[drummernezzy]

tight-tastey-tremendous

[TheFaetfiada]

awesome! \m/



[denistunguz]

Oh my...!!! You're awesome man! Tasty drumming and killer music!

[LegionsPrevail]

Haha this is sick, I can totally hear vocals to this!-Mikey

[zekeLindgren]

your single bass trots are superb brother.

[jajajah86]

These programmed guitars mute rapidly like an overpowered noise gate. Is it possibel to do the same live somehow?

[asdrummer2008]

@jajajah86 Hey man! Good question... hahaha, Im sure you could get close, but a lot of the effect is caused from editing.

[tg10cards]

@jajajah86 long sustain with a killswitch maybe?

[redefn199]

@jajajah86 Using a killswitch that cuts the audio post-amp would have pretty much the same effect (but needs you to manually operate it), or playing along to a midi track that does the muting for you (but will require extremely precise timing). These are the best ways I can come up with.

[mikey2276]

I watch this video everyday now. :\

[wormsweater]

altso, this kid makes ill beetz you shood checkem out

[newgroove15]

hey man, i think you should play and post you covering totla mad by peripery, it's an awesome song and i think it would be cool to see you cover it!

[GodInSomething]

Wtf....I mean srsly...this is just...too epic holy shit (y)

[Drumtome]

Your left crash has a beautiful sustain.

[mikey2276]

Anup! You are one of the few reasons I come to Youtube. All of your stuff is awesomely fantastic! Keep it up, bro! xD

[Strakeflames]

I made a post about your stuff on Heavy Blog is Heavy!

[asdrummer2008]

@Strakeflames Wow man! Thanks a lot for the kind words! I really do appreciate that a lot!!!

[gosu1234]

Anup, my Friend. My Bandmates are really impressed by your Writing skills. Keep going! You sample the guitar right?

[asdrummer2008]

@gosu1234 Thanks a lot man! Much appreciated!

[Steveninja1]

how tight is your snare tuned. i fucking love the sound of it

[asdrummer2008]

@Steveninja1 Hey man! Its tuned fairly tight I would say. Its not absolutely cranked on there, but its pretty tight!

[XxStrongDrums1996xX]

@asdrummer2008 I'm assuming you play with a rimshot to get a fat crack out of it?

[asdrummer2008]

@XxStrongDrums1996xX Yessir!!! Also, I have always usually done rim shots, just out of habit more than anything...

[XxStrongDrums1996xX]

@asdrummer2008 Well, that's not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, it's actually a good thing. When you use rim shots, you make your playing MUCH more diverse. I use rim shots as well, and I find that it makes ghost notes flow a little bit more and stand out a little bit better. Also, it's the proper way to get such a crack out of the drum!

[Steveninja1]

@asdrummer2008 thank you for the insight I'll definately try out that snare cause it sounds like sex

[npdrumming]

do you prefer those heads for all your toms live aswell? or is that more of a recording purpose?

[Sumerian314]

innovation at its finest

[Fortune1]

Programmed guitar has blown my mind.. I play guitar and drums and this like changes the paradigm.. You're doing things that are impossible to play on guitar, But it sounds so fucken sweeeet.

[imdarrellkthx]

shock and AWWWWWWWW YEAH

[larsleion]

These are so good. Great job! :)

[VicenteKidd]

So fcking amazing. U need to be hude in the drum world

[VicenteKidd]

You don't have a ride?

[SCWolf]

You're a musical genius.

[ibanezRG93]

yo dude get a band get on Sumarian records and be famous

[Strakeflames]

These are awesome, but you REALLY need to start putting mp3s up.

[XDMikeyThePikeyXD]

Love your style man, this shits dope!!

[Niallphillips]

duuude, I wana be in your band, every song is so solid...great, original ideas executed perfectly on a consistant basis... I honestly think you'll go places if you keep this up

[hibye671]

YOUR FUCKING BEAST.

[paddeification]

Seriously dude, THAT'S SOME GROOVY SHIT! Keep up the wonderfull work :)

[zekeLindgren]

once again, god damn brilliant. brilliant. this is genuinely great. you are not another youtube musician where its like "hey this guy writes some pretty catchy stuff" this needs to go somewhere, it already sounds powerful and heavy with sampled guitar, the sampled tone is actually kinda cool with its choppy cut outs and entries. but if this were to have the production quality along the lines of sumerian metal bands this would really be shit i listen to often. keep it instrumental please :D

[DrumsZackDrums]

Dude! Anup, I am so impressed with your drumming skills and Im blown away with your composition skills man..  Everything about this is amazing.. \\m//

[asdrummer2008]

@DrumsZackDrums Hey Zach!!! Thanks a lot for the kind words!

[DrumsZackDrums]

@asdrummer2008 I bet your right foot is cooking 2:00 - 2:25

[asdrummer2008]

@DrumsZackDrums hahaha! Actually, thats pretty comfortable to do single footed, and it would probably feel more difficult to alternate between two feet!

[DrumsZackDrums]

@asdrummer2008 I know the feeling ;)

[Maitzeth]

Hey anup!! fucking amazing!! really! >,<

[doushimon]

sweeeeet, freaking sick man

[HellScream1231]

Hey Anup, How do you sample the guitars?

Great job! :)

[zulegmat]

Sampling the guitars is a really cool concept and it's sounds fucking tight, something different you know, i fucking dig it!

[CoreyZer0]

my god, all three of your originals are amazing dude, i can't wait to hear the rest of the album

[OndskapensHersker]

awesome stuff dude.

[adioskaterdude999]

words cannot explain how much i love your music man. do you know if anyone is planning on getting some footage of the intervals show on frak the gods tour? that would be killer!

[7xmetalcullen95]

awesome drumming man! and sweet song.

[Ceruleusband]

you never cease to amaze me bro! great job!

[asdrummer2008]

@foderem I like it a lot! Its helped me shape my tone for my snare a lot in my recordings! I'm sure there are several other heads that would sound just as good, but I am really happy with the Black X right now!

[Drummerkid74]

Each time I see your originals, I think "Dang, it can't get any better than this." Each time I see them, I get proved wrong xP

[asdrummer2008]

@Drummerkid74 Hey man! Thanks a lot for the kind words! Its much appreciated!

[Splinter8451]

RED SHIRT BLACK PANTS HERPORBINDERP.

[smurfhunterguy]

Is a red shirt and black pants the only clothes you own?

[TheGP8]

@smurfhunterguy He spends all his money on the kit xD

[loudnessdrummer13]

@smurfhunterguy hes probably trying to match his kit..



[asdrummer2008]

@smurfhunterguy hahaha! Yea... at least for drumming! I don't enjoy sweating in my other shirts and pants...

[smurfhunterguy]

@asdrummer2008 I know exactly how you feel. I bring 3 shirts to gigs. One for set up, on for playing, on for after. BIG DRUMMERS UNITE!

[shawnguess]

can you detail your recording setup? mics, pres, overhead mic position -- any special processing? you get a great sound.

[officerpoopnard]

the technicality and heaviness of your songs gives me the fuckin chills!!!

i love everything about this song

[HereticNub]

fukin epic.

[shawnguess]

badass man
