Nice work with the hands, but I'm always disappointed with one-footed blasting. At about 2:15 your blast is pretty quiet.

But good stuff anyway man, keep it metal.

Cool man.

One suggestion, regarding technique, is that you should watch out for your right hand, because your fingers aren't fully wrapped around the stick which can lead to a lack of control. You should take a look at your left hand as well if the same situation is happening there.

I'm aware of my right and hand and I do lose it sometimes. Its basically thumb and forefinger when Im blasting like that. No probs with the left though.

Out of the 20+ years I've been playing drums, I just got into blasting death/grind about 7 or 8 months ago. Its new grounds for me. I like.

@2:15 its more of a slayer style punk beat, the blast is @2:22

Its probably a combination of me getting tired and the fact that the high frequencies from my ride cymbal totally frap out the mic on my camera.


thanks!

Yeah man sorry, that's what I meant. It's sick drumming all the same.

I will give you all my star wars stickers if you one foot your blasts...

Haha, your on.

I can do it with my right but my left foot is still trying to pick it up. Ach well, one day.
