Tbh i dont listen much to extreme metal anymore. Getting older and more mellowed out i guess. But i still keep an eye on the scene, just cause of dudes like this. Every now and then one of these freaks of nature pops up, and move the boundary for what is possible. Nils is a master of what he does. The speed, attack, precision and stamina is just ridicolous. He has worked hard to get to this level, and he deserves all the praise he gets.
I watched this again and my face melted. The only explanation is that he really really needed to catch the next bus so he had to play very very fast so he doesn't miss it
You can just hear the evil and chaos in his playing. Considering how one dimensional black metal drumming can be, this type of endurance, power, and speed is truly next level shit. I'm still just in awe at how vicious he sounds. That ride cuts like a chainsaw!
I mean to be fair, this playing is fairly one dimensional, but at such an immense intensity and with such endurance that it passes into a league of its own, this is the guy you can tell every other blast fiend wishes they could be
Right On Dude. Sextreme percussion porn. Skin Bashin, Head Bustin, Wood Steamin Sextraordinare. Bang the heads slowly, 🤨 not in our man here's case. 💣 Sexplosive!
3:23 And the fact that he just casually adds a powerful as fuck roll on the snare followed by all the toms at 280 bpm like it's no big thing as well, with each stroke being perfectly defined having played at this speed non-stop for three minutes... Most other drummers would just do some simple boring alternating pattern between their hands and feet to save energy or flop about on the snare a bit when trying to to fills at these speeds. For most drummers, that's even true at lower speeds as well... All aspects of his drumming are leagues beyond everyone else.
Yes, Barker is better, more complex. Dominator is fast and sloppy, he overplays and it gets fucking annoying. Too bad that you lost a friend for having a small criteria.
You should hear Barker in Old Mans Child my friend. Speed isn't everything but I cannot deny that Dominator is beyond most drummers skill set.Nick Barker is the best fyi 😆
@@danieltovar2538 lmao where was nils sloppy at any point of this playthrough and would you please show a video where travis pulls out this kind of stuff
Nils needs to be featured on the "People are awesome/insane - fastest workers in the world" RU-vid series. He truly one of the fastest and most dedicated to his profession than most.

It sounds like he’s doing all this with no triggers... just perfectly consistent hits and strokes, fuck what anybody says, I just found my new favorite drummer
Coming from a black metal drummer... With enough practice you don't even really get winded anymore until you get up there in the speed like this. Playing like this probably hardly fatigues him now. Lol after years and years of practicing his songs at that speed. Muscle memory places a big part with overall fatigue.
So I found out that Nils challenged Satan to a rock off challenge. He completely dominated the devil and was personally bestowed the title "Dominator" from the depths of hell along with the immortality of blast beats.
Dominator does justice to his Name! For sure the fastest Drummer in Black Metal. Every single Beat seems to be flawless, that's next to Impossible but he just did it!
With every video of Nils I go "okay, this song is even faster than the previous one, surely this is his limit" And then on the next video I shit my pants again...
What a fucking machine!! He is so accurate through and through. Seems like he never loses any steam. Would love to know his warm up routine and how he goes on stage with such limber limbs, because that is imperative for this kind of extreme drumming. And it's obvious that he is warm and loose from the start.
Too funny watching the vid thinking Marco has to comment on this then i found it. Sounds like your hannal drumming i can see the influence he's just not blindfolded lol
Its not just that its fast its so god damn powerful too, ive heard many fast drummers, probably faster but not even close with this precision and power...de svänger ju Holy hell this was good
What the hell, at this speed I thought he might have resorted to triggers as many drummers do, but there's microphones and all. Yeah, we don't know if they're "on", but why have them if you're not using them? Anyways, that song is a killer and he's playing like beast incarnate.
