Fleshgod Apocalypse are a Italian Technical Symphonic Death Metal band, the original drummer of this song and the one who wrote it was Francesco Paoli (highly recommend checking him out, crazy good drummer) who now is the lead singer and guitarist of the band. if i remember correctly he was maybe playing drums for like 2-3 years when he wrote this song.

I am not a "metal head" because i am not a fan boy. Boy i have enjoyed metal and its evolution since the 90's. Metal was not part of my life the last 15 years. I am coming back to it with Fleshgod Apocalypse. I think i'm becoming a fanboy. Lol
His acivity wristband probally said "Daily Goal Achieved" before one minute into the song.

So are hideous divinity
I know good Eugene, he is from my hometown Uzhgorod (Transcarpathian region, Ukraine), but now live in Austria. Very good guy and perspective drummer.
The combination of double strokes and the swivel technique in one song is insane
If I remember correctly, the original drummer on this song was Franceso (currently the signer/guitarist and also the main songwriter for the band). The story, as I understand it is that Francesco was having a hard time finding a drummer he was happy with so he just started doing it himself after a few months of learning how to play drums. Believe it or not, he was drumming for ~3 years, per the story, when he wrote and recorded this song, which Eugene plays faithfully here. Francesco is also an insanely talented guitarist. He's one of those guys like Jaco Pastorius who seems to be able to pick up an instrument and master it almost immediately. I am very jealous of that talent as a hack drummer, mediocre bassist and pedestrian guitar player myself.

I have been following Francesco for a long time and recall when he started Fleshgod as a side project. They had a drummer while developing their first demo and he had some personal issues to resolve and had to leave the band. He just said fuck it and did the drums himself and progressed to this level so quickly, it was mindblowing. I was hooked since their split demo with the original cut of Embodied Deception.

Eugene is the man hes worked so hard for what we all get to hear and or watch and such a funny friendly fellow as well ive never met him myself but have been following his career path hes doing things right
This is always one of the best songs to watch a drummer play there’s so much technique in just one song it’s insane. You won’t find many drum playthrus With this much speed precision and complexity. If you enjoy the variety of the music in one song check Between The Burried and Me they are the Rush of metal

However many times I watch either Paoli or this guy, it never ceases to boggle my mind how fast & precise they are. It shouldn't be possible. I wish tendinitis wasn't a thing though.

Yeah I'm stunned what these freaks can do physically
Andrew, what you spotted at 5:03 is what i was amazed at watching this. It's the snare hand only on blast beats. He doesn't use much wrist, and he doesn't use all his fingers, it looks like he alternates between the fingers using one after another, so one hit will be middle finger then ring then pinky and then repeating. Amazing to watch. I don't know if he specifically learnt that or it was a natural habit he has but to get a relatively consistent force on each hit with different fingers pushing on slightly different areas of the stick, that's incredible.

Oh NICE!! I was commenting for you to check out this guy, and being new to your channel I didn't realize you had done a reaction to them. This guy is a beast for sure!
haha nice eugene made it to your channel, have run into him couple of times while on tour in europe ;) good guy
Eugene is a legend!
They are from Italy. Also check out a Greek band SepticFlesh and a track Dark Art or Prometheus. Or what ever actually. 😉 They are one of the first bands in the symphonic death metal genre. Their guitarist is also an orchestral composer and his brother vocalist/bassist is an artist/painter
So happy I got to see and hear Francesco play this song live years ago when he was behind the kit!!!
wow!!!!! just WOW!!!!!! i had no idea about the "k", "j" and "l" keys
K to pause. 15 years on KZread and I learned something new haha. Such a little detail you appreciate sometimes
The control and the ability to change hands is mind blowing.
That double bass though!?!?!? Sick! Great vids man. Still gotta see Billy Rymer , prancer.
They're awesome to see live \m/ what a show it was! Wintersun headlined with Fleshgod Apocalypse/ Arsis and Starkill.
That's heel toe technique at its finest. Another good drummer is the drummer from Aversions Crown. Cant remember his name but hes crazy on drums. Played perfect live
How can this amazing artist create a perfect timed, rhythmically beautiful hyperspeed slow motion train wreck??
I've been hooked since the violation. Dope band.masters of their craft
Luke Holland - Tendinitis, pretty epic. Enjoying watching a fellow Kiwi 👊
I've listened quite a bit to these guys, and I'm constantly laughing just because it's so crazy but at the same time bombastic and mixed with so much classical music references and atmospheres. Not sure if that's the case with this track in particular, but I'd recommend you check them out on Spotify, because they're something else. :)

Yes, they are symphonic death metal. This song isn't very symphonic at all when compared to some of their newer albums. In their last few albums it's been a lot more symphonic AND they added an opera singer (Veronica).

Yep...thats the same reaction I have every time he puts out a video LOL. He is seriously a cool guy and even does user submission reviews.

Dude flexing his pinkies what's making blast beat... Does it with left and right hand this dude's amazing
What you need to do is go to one of these shows and see this live (when the Earth gets back to normal, if it ever does...) The first time I saw a death metal band live was in the late 90s. I liked metal but I hated "those vocals". Once I saw the insane performance that these bands put on live..... it all fell into place. I'm a huge fan of that style now. Bands like Fleshgod will make your jaw drop in a live setting. Seeing it on video is one thing, experiencing it in person is a whole other world.
Eugene definitely one of the best in the game!
You just taught me something with the J and L keys but it gets even better (This could be a PC thing) but the arrows do the same thing but they go 5 secs.. Space bar works as a pause too.. III know

I would love to know what technique he is using for blast snare beats. Any url links? thx
Another great Fleshgod Apocalypse song worth your time would be David Diepolds play through of kingborn. It’s masterful.
Big Mercyful Fate vibes with those vocals
You did this one, now do his play through of the violation please!!!
Dude, check out any video by Aaron Stechauner from Rings of Saturn drum playthrough. This will blow you away how a simply drum set can make a killer sound. They now have Mike Caputo which is have same insane skill of drumming. Also, go check Eloy Casagrande from Sepultura too. Both three are my fav drummer.
Techniques used in this video-Heel toe technique(double strokes) and swivel technique(fast single strokes).
Please check out Mario Duplantier. One of two brothers in the French band Gojira. I think he was awarded with some drummer of the year award from a magazine or something... He is skilled!

If you enjoy the plink-plonks, you need to hear Mgwa - Exercises in Futility V. Played live.
such a simple catchy guitar riff and the drumming can be the front instrument in the song
for more extreme metal with violins etc and insane drumming you must check septicflesh
Holy crap 😮😮😮
Fleshgod Apocalypse is amazing, just a total monster of a band. Check out Elliot Hoffman from Car Bomb. Absolutely wild, think you'd find something to appreciate in his style.
