Yeah and also the only drummer that has what, 2 videos of him playing his own songs in their entirety? 1 video that doesn't have a bunch of edits and cuts. Dude isn't as good as it sounds/looks. He can do shit in parts but not in its entirety. Pretty sad you have to be fake to be recognized.
Coincidentally, you look really similar to the band’s vocalist dickie allen, also, just in case you can’t get a clear explanation of the speed because people would rather argue whether it’s real or not and just jump to a conclusion. In short, it’s real, sort of. Aaron has done playthroughs of these songs but obviously he burns out quick, the speed is crazy. So while he begins with 100% accuracy, he starts falling off. How Infant recorded their first two albums is a little different from their most recent. Both TPLOP and TEGG began with recording the instrumental only, no lyrics until the entire album was done instrument-wise, the guitarist and drummer record their bits in sections playing for real and then piece it together. They take this process super serious and the instrument sections took the majority of the both albums, Eddi is a really underrated guitarist and is the least recognized in this band despite being super talented, he usually records 2 completely different guitar sections and layers them, simple on paper, but his instrumentals are complex and there is actually an impossible note section on guitar during this song. Aaron triggers his drums, that’s it though, no programming, just triggers, he records his drums in pieces and puts them all together, creating actually really impressive transition sections that make each piece link together flawlessly, it’s an effective and really cool way of creating a fast drum track. So he does play this fast, but with triggers and segmentation. So while he’s definitely a great drummer, he isn’t really THIS fast (he’s in a more serious metal band with Eddi called black tongue, much slower without the triggers and stuff, this is where his real skill lies) their most recent album was different, they didn’t have the time to do what they usually do, so to maintain the crazy speed and satisfy their base, the drums on Battle of Yaldabaoth are 100% programmed Edit: this track is from the first album TPLOP Edit 2: a great example of the double guitar layering eddi does can be heard from 1:58 - 2:05 (in the original, not this reaction), if you have headphones, try listening to this part with only one speaker in either or your ears, you’ll only hear one of the two guitars during this part. The time stamp for the same part in this reaction video begins at 3:23
@@vitunpelle602 if he does, it’s for outlier songs he couldn’t record fast enough for, like behold the kingdom, blasphemian, etc. which is what he admitted to. Any song over 6 minutes is likely to be sprinkled with programming, and Eddi has given the same reason I have about the double bass, Aaron can do it, but only when it’s segmented, while he did do it at that festival thing and went through the first part with maybe 90% accuracy, Im convinced he’d of gotten it had he started with that part
@@goutbreak Dude, theres absolutely no proof that he can actually play as fast as it seems. And its not that theres programming sprinkled in there, The Elysian Grandeval Galeriarch for example is all programmed.
Legal Ki En is RoS best album BECAUSE of Aaron’s work and even more so because it’s not mixed and mastered like fucking garbage like the rest of their albums are.
Aaron is extremely talented. All of his work from The PLOP, The EGG and The BOY is great, it is done with an electric kit AFAIK but he doesn't write anything he can't play.
its not sped up but its definitely cheesed if you watch on 0.5 speed theres countless missed notes and snare hits he's not playing rip, Craig Reynolds has a good video on it
"New Archspire song (drums only) 350 bpm" is a video you MUST check out man. Spencer is an incredible drummer with top notch speed, especially with his kicks.
I just ran into your channel and I must say my reactions were just as hilarious as yours. I kept showing my partner, holy shit listen to this madness, and her reactions were also great. She was like what the fuck, he can battle Dominator. I gave her the look of death, due to the fact that Nils Dominator is me favorite drummer of all time!!! Great stuff man, I'm subbing for sure KEEP IT FUCKING METAL🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
This band is insane. How ever he did say he programs his drums some times to save time. Coz there band infant annihilator is a side project the 3 members do when they ain't doing things for there actual bands they are in. But he said he would never program something he couldn't play. So basically when you think about it. Hes playing what he programs
He probably lies. He's definitely programmed everything. I doubt he can play some of the segments of certain songs. Deathcore and its ignorant fans are notorious for quantizing, etc
@@Kain_R_Heinlein the funny thing is he can play the drums. He can't play a full set due to how fast he plays. Also he played cuntcrusher on a acoustic drum kit and fucking broke it so he Definitely can play. People have also done drum covers so yea.
There's are so many cuts and it's the album track. IA will never play live because Aaron wouldn't be able to play one song live. He's still a great drummer but everything with IA is recorded in bits. Black Tongue is more his real skills. Check out dudes that actually play live. Spencer Prewitt, John Longstreth, George Kollias, Chason Westmoreland, Mike Caputo, Bryce Butler,etc
I played with Black Tongue and was there to see Aaron sound check and even solo a little. Didn't come close. He's a GOOD drummer, but he's nowhere near this level. I can't believe how many people are fooled by this.
Those are programmed and like some1 stated below "There is not ONE legit video of him playing ANY of their songs from start to finish, one take, where you hear the actual audio from the drums" Its not like watching Dominator,Trym,Alex Rudinger,George Kolias...etc - some of the most insane drummers you can actually Hear and See plaing their stuff live :)
This guy plays drums like rabbits breed. I thought for a second the video was sped up. The sound is a bit too mechanical for me but it is amazing to see how sharp this guy is, and his groove drumming is really good.
You need to hear the drum play through for .......-henker- slave of my art - Extermination dismemberment- Bulldozer massacre - worm shepherd- river ov knives
Hey Boris, if you go to infant annihilators drum covers on their RU-vid Channel, Aaron talked to people in comments about his techniques many years ago. It doesn’t really exist outside on the internet
HOW AARON DO IT ITS LEGIT:he uses HEEL TOE TECHNIQUE and NOT LIFITNG IT UP and HE PUTS THE BEATERS CLOSE TO THE BASS DRUMS SO ITS LEGIT some says its FAKE BUT ITS JUST TECHNIQUE
Its so funny because the reason I could never delve deeper into Death Metal subgenres (even like Grindcore type stuff) is because of the drums but something about the way deathcore or blackened deathcore makes it sound, makes it so appealing to me and now this is all I can listen to these days but I do need to expand my taste for Death Metal.
As a drummer I can only talk for myself but weed set my hands litterally free. Since than it's just a matter of practicing with different speed. 250 BPM is my comfy limit.
So I love metal, but couldn’t play any instrument to save my life. I couldn’t even scream metal in the face of of fear as it would come out pure opera, so I have a quick technical question for you…… you mentioned his hands can’t keep up with his feet, is that because his feet are so ridiculously fast, or his hands don’t play as fast as they should (comparatively)?
Crazy thing is that theyve even said aaron plays everything like they make him get it down or something like that cause some of his parts just sound fake as fuck but nah he is the real deal
