Paul Mazurkiewicz (Cannibal Corpse) - drumtalk [episode 28] 

Paul is def. underrated so is Alex Webster. both are top notch, and so technically sound and creative its not even funny. u would be hard pressed to find a better bass guitar player and drummer, Donald Tardy, etc./ maybe Chris Adler, or Dave Lombardo , the bass player from Suffocation is only dude close to Alex W. as far as rock/ metal bass guitar .homie from Suffocation is very underrated, & writes really cool bass lines.I still think Alex Webster is best bass guitarist in rock/ or metal /whatever,etc. He's like Steve Harris on HGH, heavier, faster, more complex. N i love maiden. Checkout youtube video of A. Webster and Victor Wooten jamming is cool as fuhhhhk!

@@danielcharles8442 lmao man thinks Chris Adler is an elite level metal drummer

Im not even sure if hes being humble. I think I know what hes talking about. I feel the same way about the bands ive played in. I just loved the music so much that I wanted to be a part of it. I never considered myself a musician. I just did it. When people ask me what do i enjoy doing, playing music always comes next to last or last in my mind. Its not that I dont hold it on high, its just not what comes to mind. Almost ever. I feel he ran away with music as I did. I really understand him. Hell I had people come to me and say " I didnt know you where in a band " or " You play guitar/ Bass? " How they find out is never from me, but others who know me better. its flattering and stupid at the same time. I think hes speaking out of sear honesty. No modesty in it at all.

So does my wife, but that's another story...

I've been sick of seeing that hand sign crap for years now!!! its the thumbs up for me! saying I was there!!!!!!

I tapped knuckles with him backstage before they went on stage years back, it must’ve really grown on him... he’s not the fastest or most technical but cannibal has a lot weird time changes and he gets the job done, I can’t stand all that over triggered crap

and really fast!!!!!!!?????

I'm friends with him on Facebook. Very nice guy about everything. Except if the Sabres aren't playing good lol

I saw them live a couple weeks ago and he beats the ever living Fucking shit out of the snare. I thought he was going to break his whole drum kit. Whole band was on fire.

Yeah he is. He's a phenomenal drummer.

I love his style

Ok bud. He’s not crazy technical like he’s saying. That doesn’t mean he is bad

@your mom how is it that bad ?

Yea he's great. So is Alex Webster. Both are hella underrated

Like CC says, sounds like a train bout to jump track...... Then land it last minute

Agreed bro I'm a guitar player myself and Pat O Brien is one of my biggest influences on guitar. And there would be no cannibal without Paul or Alex. And I met all of them at a meet and greet. And they are the nicest and most humble dudes. I hate how people say paul is sloppy. And pat isn't a good guitar player. Paul is super tight and pat is a incredible guotar player.

Well said dude

same if cannibal had a different bassist, and at this point different vocalist.

@@tylerdees4850 They're all incredible musicians. I fail to see how anyone can call them "sloppy"!

@@tenhundredkills you’d be surprised how many people say they can’t play. Probably because they are fucking idiots. Or they aren’t musicians. And just complete trolls that hate everything lol.

Yep. Him and Alex Webster are the best 2 dudes ever!

Logan Wilder , your either joking around.....or your one of those young lads that grew up thinking born of osiris was what death is......yeah , punch recorded track sessions with triggers is the fucking justin bieber of duch metal

molochz exactly. Paul himself would admit his playing is very basic. Doesn't make it bad, his style is iconic. He's the lars ulrich of death metal, not the best player, but essential for their respective bands.

Erik Walthar whist you're right, modern death, and metal in general, is way over produced with every hit snapped to a grid. However, are people still complaining about triggers? It's not cheating, it's about sound.

revivedfears -Agree about the triggers. I didn't bother saying anything about them because people seem to have no idea how they work. Also I'd say 90% of metals use triggers in some capacity live and in the studio. They usually use a mix of trigger and natural sound. Mos of the time you'd never even know.

molochz definitely. Its definitely rarer to hear drums on a metal record without triggers and samples these days. Modern metal is more 'produced' than most pop today, especially with the way the drums are recorded.

Actually, DM sounds WAY more brutal at 190 that above 250. CC sounds like a freight train when the fastest bands sounds like bumblebees.

@@Lycanthony1 i agree..i definitely give props to the guys who play in the 250 and up range but it does sound a bit like morse code after a while

@@Lycanthony1 For me, it really depends. Playing at speeds like 250 bpm can be brutal, but there's a time and a place for it. Listening to an entire album at that speed can be tiring. There needs to be some dynamics!

There are just some musicians you click with. Chemistry usually takes time. You are correct you can't replace chemistry.

Rock78 Rock78 i mean they popularized a genre

Co-created really.

They definitely did not create death metal, but they definitely helped make it popular

@@maxdurk4624 I think they did. First with blast beats, odd timings, cookie-monster vocals....

@@MrRick693 I mean, they were an early band, but they so did not create it. Death, Morbid Angel, Possessed, etc were all first

calvometal or richard cristy from control denied i love raw drummers savage brann dailor too mastadon bad af

thanks buddy! there are still a few influences of mine missing but the majority is only one click away ;-) I must say back in the day I never thought that there would be a time for me to meet and talk to all of those incredible important guys. I keep it up as long as I can

I agree! Still my favorite from them. That album seems to be a slightly different style from all the albums that followed. It has so much groove to it that is missing from the others. Plus I liked Barnes' raspier vocals on that album. Same with Broken Hope "Swamped in Gore"...full of groove. Wish they'd remix/master that album. It's a bit thin.

Brian Harris Drummer yeah it seems to be more thrashy, especially compared to tomb of the mutilated

people always seem to forget that Lars used to be a good "primal" drummer back in the day

Every drummer is better than Lars

@@leon0210 you've clearly never been to a Guitar Center on a weekend

thank you so much man! building an archive of portraits available for everyone is what I want to do with this channel. trying to get across who these people really are (some of them might have an "interview persona"...but not in the deleted scenes in the beginning...)

BEER PORN & MORE You hit the nail on the head. Extreme metal is a great outlet for negative emotions- it's a form of catharsis. It's a similar situation for people like Stephen King.

Yeah it was during recording encased in concrete. He pinched a really nasty nerve and it makes your whole back feel like your suffocating. That's every day of my life lol!

Cannibal Corpse is 10 times better with Corpsegrinder

Insane drummer

bmentlow Yes he hurt himself that way over time and his playing deteriorated.

...I think he said it best when he said he only learned drums to play in a death metal band. Didn't we all tho.
