First Fragment is legit. Out of all the albums I’ve listened to last year, their album Gloire Éternelle was my most played.

Seriously such a great LP. Some of the shredding sooometimes feels a touch same-y due to how near constant the soloing is, but goddamn, such a beautiful and well written and produced album. Also one of my favorites from last year. Phil Tougas is such a talented dude it's almost unfair, haha. Phil's work in Equipoise and Chthe'ilist is also top notch.

I think I listened just to Gloire Eternelle and Solus for three weeks straight before I even touched the rest. :-D

the bassist come from another band called "Beyond creation" i love it

You should be glad you don't have to teach this stuff. I have a 16 year old student who has decided she is going to join the titans of metal drumming and now I have to spend 2-3 hours every day on cardio alone just to have the energy to demonstrate all the things she wants to learn.

viel glück dabei lol

there's a new First Fragment drum video released today (literally 4 hours ago) by their current drummer of a song off their newest album, skill looks amazing. Hopefully will see a reaction pop up on this channel eventually :) It's why I am here rewatching this reaction again.

Can't tell you how many times I've watched this particular playthrough...Samuel Santiago is a real beast. First Fragment is absolutely for real...and even though the vocals are all in French, they are legitimately one of my favorite tech death bands 🤘

The song is great. One of my favourites. But... Their newest album is completely mindblowing. It is a masterpiece. 19 solos (including bass guitar) in one song? No problem, First Fragment has you covered. These guys are outstanding.

I listen to tons of tech death and First Fragment is absolutely top tier. They are super fast and technical but as melodic as possible.

For me I find it funny being an extreme music drummer myself I tend to watch videos of the bassist Dominic and his ridiculous fretless when I wanna listen to this band

I feel this in my soul. That man alone made the band stand out to me and is by far my favorite bass player right now. I'm a drummer as well and know nothing about bass other than Forest makes it look and sound like magic.

Can't believe I missed this one, he's such a beast of a drummer !!🤘🏻

Yes Jamie!

An experienced racing driver's brain gets used to going fast and develops the ability to slow everything down, so 150mph feels more like 50mph. I can only assume something similar is going on with these extreme speed drummers - it probably feels a lot slower than it is to him. He's incredibly relaxed, too. At one point he cocks his head to side like 'yeah, I'm just going to do this for a bit'.

Another band that I need to add to the list. Very cool and chops for days. Thanks!

Fantastic! Bravo.

and yet he still looks relaxed.

First Fragment is absolutely amazing

Holy sardines in the oven this very good🤘🏾🥁

Amazing skills. That surfer dude clip though, i always laugh way too long at it lol.

Do you have a time ceiling for requests and recommendations?

Inascoltabile! Mi sembra che ora mai siano tutti tecnici, chitarristi, batteristi, bassisti ecc ecc tutti mostri ma senza core!

PSA: Matt Garstka just put out a video breaking down the composition of the most technically complicated song on AAL's newest album

Anyone does blasts that start with the hands?! They often feel backwards to me.

Although not a drummer I love your content. I've been wanting to mention this drummer for awhile so now that I'm thinking about it. Phil Ehart from Kansas. IMO one of the best progressive rock drummers out there and very unsung. Really no iso videos of him but this is a pretty good one and one of Kansas' greatest songs kzread.info/dash/bejne/oH1ptMend7e5pdI.html

Camera angles kinda suck on this video

Horrible editing on that one. Half of the best parts weren't even watchable.
