Daniel Ness Agreed on that, it was killer. But the Drama between maniac and blasphemer was in all the talks. And maniac getting worse and worse during live shows. But great album. I love TELOCH and CHARLES but sometimes wish BLASPHEMER was still about

@@danielness2847 Underrated by people who are unable to understand that a good band will never record the same stuff twice.

Traditional percussionist. Hellhammer has style and charisma. Technical drumming using simplicity. This is where the real skills shine. Anyone can blast now adays. Its in proper technique, skill and command. Jan has full mastery of his field. Period.

What a great drummer Hellhammer is, used the whole kit ,great cymbal work.

This makes you think how complex Mayhems music is compared to other bands of the same genre. Atleast in the drums department.

Too bad black metal isn't about complexity but the atmosphere. That's also why their, for example "De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas" is thousand miles ahead of anything they've released afterwards.

+Christian Black metal was about innovation, not necessarily atmosphere. they were tired of trendy death metal. Mayhem kept inventing. Esoteric Warfare is an impressive album, it's easy to enjoy that album next to deathcrush. They're both unique.

Anyone who should ever question the validity, importance, influence or creativity of this man's drumming would most certainly be silenced and rendered slack-jawed watching this awesome display.

He plays with a finesse like he's painting the notes on the drum set

I never get tired of watching this *_*

What I admire the most about Jan Axel is the understanding of simplicity that he has.The most difficult simplicity which is hidden in jazz.He has projected it into his fills and improvisational skills,and then he energize it up to something which fits in any genre of progressive metal/trash metal/death/black metal.So inspiring!Thanks,hilsen en fan.

@@6sic666666 Frost is very different though, much more straight forward and physical. Nick Barker on the other hand is very similar to HH. Both love to follow the riffs and the music, adding all those super cool fills with great use of the cymbals.

To me, he is the best technical Drummer of all Time! He unites speed with precision in very complex patterns! He is just awesome!

necrojazz

Truly a legend. I mostly admire his work on Arcturus and Covenant, but all of his stuff is awesome AF

A complete drummer,must be fun to have such freedom behind the kit.Inspiring,not demotivating:)

Never heard anything like this,this is a New Breed of drumming,Unbelievable technique

It's amazing to see how he developed his drummimg style, from a traditional way (being one of the pioneers of Black Metal drums) to a more avant-gardish style that for sure influenced modern Black Metal.

He has such a light precise touch. Totally relaxed. I can't stand the the way he uses trigger samples so often but he's one of the best metal drummers out there.

Wow, he's such a pro that he even looks bored as he's playin, what a talent. I sure hope he stays with mayhem & that he doesn't venture off & decide to commit to other projects etc because if mayhem lost him they'd never be the same, ever.

Actually he's still involved in a lot of different projects, many great bands and not black metal, and these days even a bit less than he used to. But make no mistake about it, no Hellhammer no Mayhem, the band wouldn't exist without him at this point.

fucking hellhammer best black metal drummer EVER. FUCKING PERIOD

MayheM's sound is the best in bringing hell to earth

So much accuracy in his playing! Damn!

One of the absolute masters

The best guys make it look easy..

What A Masterpiece Ov Drums!!!

This is some fabulous stuff.. I'm always like: "Oh man".. Necro-Jazzing that shit at the ultimate level

Hellhammer has been 1 of the best (if not the best) drummers since 1997.

He's simply the best

Is he doing this with combat boots on?? Good lord

Probably the only trommer who uses everything 🤟🏿

WHOA!!!!! Beautiful drum section!!!!!

He has one of the weirdest drum set ups i have ever seen and boy does he know how to play the shit out of it!

I can do that. Hold my beer.

So much to play with like a drummer in a candy store 😜🤘🏻🤘🏻🥁

The reverse fill at 2:41 is absolutely insane

still the best metal drummer out there, his timing is spot on!

absolute great master

Perfection

bro this dude is cleaner than heaven's toilet

Greathammer!

he has some really interesting fills !

You can tell he wants to take off it’s hard when you have a slow song and then a fast song your body is all wound up you have to slow down your heartbeat and take a breath!!!!! JAN RULES!!!!!

Best drummer ever Hail The Trve Mayhem!

It's like a wall between him and the audience.

+Tim Brown Actually once you got used to them, boots help you a lot stabilizing your ankle and adding some power to the strokes which is very helpful when you play a direct drive foot pedal like the axis. But also with chain driven pedals it's useful to have a shoe that supports your ankle one way or another.

I've been playing Axis for close to 30 years. I was the first guy on the East coast to get the Longboards when they were released. I have a hard enough time finding tennis shoes (I wear a size 15.) I saw HH on this last tour and I was surprised that he wasn't triggering.
