I meet Hellhammer last week. We talked about the new mayhem album that is coming out this year, cant wait. realy cool guy and deffinently Norways best drummer. keep up the good work!

One of my favorite drummers of all time.

My fave mayhem track from a really underrated album. Crystallized Pain In Deconstruction from Grand Declaration of War

best drummer ever!

Makes it look so easy.. hellhammer is a beast 🤘👍

what I love tho most, that his style is so unique...

Jan Axel, you are the coolest nighbor i have! I have been to one rehearsal with mayhem, i can say that his drumkit is awsome and realy good to play on! And he's new cymbals are like the dream! Nice that Hellhammer(jan Axel) my nighbor make some videos!

It's hard to imagine that the worlds best drummer wound up playing in mayhem

Not even the best drummer in metal.

damn, those old school drummers keeping it real

When drum solo gains a new meaning...

I´m a drummer myself, starting out early and playing fast black metal when I was about 13 or 14 at 1991.I thought I was extremely fast, and more skilled compared to Hellhammer back then (mysteriis dom satanas lp,of course, concidering to the songs featured).But now....21 years later, who the hell could out play him?! I just love that guy! Check out his left hand work.Also look at Frost with Gorgoroth and Fenriz during 1991 (Goatlord-era).Since then he has been an disappointment...

How great is this! Finally I have the opportunity to view Hellhammers magnificent drumming raw, alive (dead ;) and kicking (on his bassdrums). What a grand declaration. Cheers from the Netherlands

Hellhammer isn't just a good a drummer anymore... he's a fucking legend. Great Respects. Damn.... how I wish I could Drum like that....

A beast thatswhat he is insane drumming

the best drummer in the world, no more coments needed...!!!!!

His been my neighbour for 25 years, Jan axel rocks.

Love you, JAN!!!!!! AWESOME!!!!!

Awesomeeeeeee , Hellhammer is one of the best on earth

Made in Norway!!! Hellhammer es Maravillosooooo!!! \m/ 👹

Master Blomberg

i think he uses lots of great techniques to play fast without wasting to much energy(open/close, doubles on the feet etc...)

I’d like to know why Jan prefers sitting so far from his kit. Personal preference, but, damn, he likes to reach! Mad skills....madder respect!

Mostly due to his grip.

For anyone wishing to know the song, its Mayhem - Crystallized pain in deconstruction.

Endelig video av Jan Axel !!!!

Majestically Awesome...headbanging to all....RESPECT!

This seems to be the first video ever of Hellhammer playing fast stuff, and finally one can see his conflicting technique. In one way it's old school but on the other it's very economical. On fast stuff he uses push/pull -technique for the hands and constant release (heel-toe) technique on the feet. But then again much of the power comes from the shoulders when playing slower stuff, one can really see that he doesn't have much power on wrists when playing the toms and cymbals - interesting...

thank you so much!!!!

simply THE BEST

3:07 his blasting technique is insane!

love that ride cymbal!!!

For mayhem and extreme music paiste rude are perfect imo

thx!

Fuck, he's good.Whatever anyone thinks of him for any reason (personally I think he seems like a cool guy),you can't say that he doesn't know his way around a drum kit.That's for fuckin' sure!🤘

Probably the first mayhem rehersal i´ve ever seen except the old ones with dead on vocals. Great material!

It's a 22" custom rude power ride, Coated with the coloursound coating twice for an extra dry sound.

Met hellhammer in Dublin Ireland an he was sound dude.

Damn those drum fills!!

Awesome!!!!

best hellhammer video out there

The Buddy Rich of extreme metal! : ]

2:28 Hellhammer used the camera as a cymbal !

Jazz Metal🤘

Listen to "Slaughter of dreams".He is a god on that one

@MrAlucard222 Ah, thanks! Im always mixing albums.. :P Agree he's one of the best!

its Crystalized Pain In Deconstruction... from Mayhem album Grand Declaration of War

@MrAlucard222 thank you! To me, Nick is the best. We all have different tastes! But yes! You spitted truth! Cheers!

its soo cool!!! the best \m/

Mayhem - Crystallized pain in deconstruction

gotta love that his setup is mostly metal if you know what i mean not black but steel :)

Endelig fant jeg noe hellhammer på nett! (som er i bra filmkvalitet!)

Fab!

great master

it´s Crystalized Pain In Deconstruction

awsome drumming

oh my......

2:26 BETTER WATCH OUT!

@hellscan from the album Grand declaration of war...

More from HellHammer !

3:17 push pull hand technique!!! cool!!!

I think it was a prototype of his signature ride. Two layers of paint to try to make it as close to his old Sabian leopard ride as possible. He now uses this on the left side of his kit. On the right he has the Sabian leopard with a Paiste sticker on it :P

it's a practice session with his band, mayhem.

@hkboxer Crystalized in pain and deconstruction, from the Wolf Lairs Abyss album \m/ Kick ass drumming!

trust me man, take away the triggering and Hellhammer is still an awesome drummer!...the overtriggering is just there because it sounds good in the music. Hellhammer can play any fucking extreme metal drumming technigues... With or Without triggering!!

Yeh good point actually

@vickern93 thanks

yes

@LHondrums Looks awesome. :D

He has the most fucked up setup I've ever seen. It's like the drums are just thrown around randomly. I love it.

I managed to catch one of his drumsticks at a show in Australia and it has some of his hair stuck to it....still keep it in plastic wrap to this day

3:13 excellent expose of the push pull technique,,

Hellhammer forever.....

@VersalamBand you mean..greatest song...EVER \m/

@MrAlucard222 Constant-release, heel-toe, whatev. you want to call it. When heel-toe developes further, the heel doesn't touch the ground at all. The technique is the same though.

The fucking drummer God...

crystallised pain in deconstruction!!!

What is this small China on the left/behind the HiHat? Sounds amazing!

Arcturus SHipwrecked in Oslo DVD,HH Rules!

nice drumset !

AVE HELLHAMMER EFFIN WOW!!!!!!

its also possible to adjust the sensitivity of them,and i THINK that's what hellhammer does.

idol/inspiration for life >.<

so much groove for how fucking evil it is!!

actually, The Kovenant are pretty fucking awesome... i love both kovenant + mayhem!

OLD SCHOOL BLACK METAL 1994-1995 !!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

@queenmcsleaze Yeah lmao I didnt mean to be rude. Hellhammers kit looks amazing after all these years! I wonder how MUCH it really Costs! You saw Nick's Kit is up for sale? Amazing 8>

@TotalNekro But De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas (Masterpiece) is from '94, so how could they have been better back then?

The white one? I think it looks great!
