Meinl Cymbals - Sebastian Lanser - Obscura “Anticosmic Overload“ 

Having the best version of this song, above legends like Grossman, Rudinger and Diepold is crazy... This version is beyond perfect, a combination of a profesional studio drummer on the timing and dynamics precision, and a profesional live drummer for the intensity, and the hard playing.

1:49 - 1:58 this double bass was just perfect!

Pff that footwork at 1:50 is insane. Caught me by surprise since it isn't in the original. Great touch! Makes the guitar riff feel really heavy and pop out.

There's something awesome, in a hard to explain kind of way, in the fact that there is no single best musician, drummer or otherwise. I have nothing but utmost respect for both Hannes and Sebastian, they absolutely slay behind the kit, but each in his respective manner. I'd say Hannes invested more skill points in straight up metal, for example his blasts are relentless, while Sebastian took the wacko-progressive approach, his work with Panzerballett is mindboggling. And one way or the other, this goes for any big name you can come up with. The way I see it, every musician contributes something entirely unique and impossible to duplicate. Yeah, sorry, just felt like pouring my heart out, inspired in part by this awesome performance by Sebastian.

An honour to witness Sebastian. Love David DIepold’s take on this track also. Both versions are stylistically different whilst managing to sound almost identical. Masters of their craft. Edit : I dig Rudi but he was handed his hat on this cover by Sebastian and David.

Sebastian is the man! I tried to cover a Panzerballett song once... didn't work out too well lol

1:05 - 1:12 perfect blast beat technique That left hand - perfectly stable, only using fingers...almost unnatural.

what a pleasure to watch someone show a skill this well. great drummer!

I really enjoy the heavy metal drummers you feature. Thank you!

amazing drumming and amazing person.good job Sebastian...thank you!

Oh man, thanks for this video. Made my week for sure. Cheers from Uruguay

Wow incredible masterclass ! elite human skills the power of dedication!

I’ve never found this style of music aesthetically pleasing, but I have a lot of respect for the amount of work it requires to play such a physically demanding part with such precision.

Amazing drummer, amazing work behind his playing!.

I always thought Alex´ rendition was perfect but i even found more nuances in here...amazing. I wonder who disliked this :/

A-m-a-z-i-n-g drumming !!! Those Classics Custom's sound really great :)

Ooof that fill at 3:40 literally melted my face

Sebastian is brilliant. That fill at 3:40 is so tasty.

Definitely he has his own style of playing and I love it..can watch this dude for hours.

Love the sound of that snare!

Sebastian is such an under-rated player. He's incredible!

Complete professional. Sebastian is incredible.

Sebastian is a phenomenal drummer - among the very best in the genre(s) he has played in!

One of the best, most diverse and technical drummers in the scene at the moment!

Incredible, amazing!

This is their 'easiest' song just so we're all aware

God DAMN that fill at 1:03 is TASTY

The world needs more Sebastian Lanser...

Cool Idea : Open 3 Windows, with RU-vid, search for hannes and Sebastian playthrough and Rudinger's cover, try to sync the 3 videos together, Enjoy !

The way he is playing these open hand blast beats is never going to fail to amaze me.

This guy is killer! Love how that Byzance Heavy Hammered Ride tracks.

Love you man. Spot on. I wish I was younger.

Excelente que bueno!! Saludos desde Costa Rica

Everybody here talking about the cover, I'm still 100% for Hannes. He's laid the path for so many to follow.

Genius!

One of the tightest modern metal drummers no doubt!

Wow, sounds good!

Lanser is my new favorite.

Amazing!!

Damn!, you are a brilliant drummer dude \m/

Madre mía. Me encanta como tocas...en febrero te veré en madrid(España)...

Amazing drummer!

i could watch sebastian play all day

Sebastian or Hannes... doesn't matter at all. Both are BEASTS. Guess 90% of us don't come close to this level of drumming. Just enjoy

He's got that huge stage to himself..And He's Owning it !!!

Very satisfying

Love this guy

Masterful!!!!!

Flawless.

I swear this dude has the best drum sound in extreme metal. And cymbals, of course 😉

Wow wow wow INSANE!!!!!

That is accuracy at its finest.

UnREAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😲👍🏼

Awesome

like we say in mexico, NO MAMES! those new fills are exquisite! outstading!

Excelente !!!!!

Despite of being a song recorded by Hannes Grossmann, Sebastian Lanser is a huge drummer!!!

This guys a machine

I have yet to see a Meinl video where they mess up the mix. Sounds awesome no matter which drummer or genre!

I only clicked on this video because I saw my dream China the classics custom. Now I am a heavy metal drummer.

my inspirations

like a supreme master

1:58 Da Ba Dee Eiffel 65

Insane

Bateria lindíssima!

classic song

Yeah 🤟💀👍

1:50 🤘🤘🤘

Top !Sebastian in Great

A machine! Would have liked to hear those splashes in the mix a bit higher

My favorite technical Death metal obscura

More songs from "Diluvium" please!!!

That was tight

He may be the best of this style

Freakin’ killer!

Máquina.

Unreasonably tight.

Regular drumming for this Hell Track by Obscura.

Been following Mr. Lanser's work since 2010, always being in awe. An amazing musician with top notch musicality and technique! P.s. Omg, that break in 3:40

Muy bueno

Damn!!!

When it comes to extreme metal drumming I find it hard to decide between Ken Bedene and this guy... Both are out of this world

How tall is this guy? Such technique...damn i wish i had grips like that

Amazing playing man! Somewhat off topic: I'll never understand why all these professionally produced YT drumming vids are rarely uploaded at 60fps! I wanna be able to actually see those blast beats being performed.

Cool solo♡ 3:39

Sebastián lanser, are you using tama star, or starclasssic?thank you.

Would love to see a comparison video of this track by Hannes, Sebastian and David!!! All three are great, but who does it best?

Waiting for the day I'll be able to master fills like this 01:50 - 01:57

alaaaaaniiiii

Wooow

Any idea about what snare he is using on this video?

Das ist gutt

1:50 - 1:59 😱

Nasty

does anyone know what kind of drum rack he has here?

MAMMA MIA!!!

Drummer ☠🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Miss you hannes

Ok ok guys pretty amazing, but all of you have to remember.. He does not do the 16ths on the hihat while doing 16th triplets on the bassdrum........................

No foot cam?
