Legend has it Alex Grind is unable to stand up straight he is in that permanent position as his spine is set to blast beat
🖤😤😤
Dude,that's serious fucking damage. It's orchestrated chaos 🤘🤘
Alex is one of the greatest metal drummers of all time. His technique is unique, captivating, inspiring, and his arrangements are incredibly musical (no small feat in this genre). What an incredible musician!
It's like his drumkit is trying to get away from him
LOL
Kevin Mojica ahahahahahahhahahahahhahaha
Маленький !!но очень хорош сука🤣
HAHAHAH oh holy
😤😤😤😤😤😤😤
Why does this man look like he can throw down on a grill
Shit has me laughing on that question!!
He’s got dad face
You've nailed it.
LOL!!!!! That's funny shit.
FUCK XDDDDDD
1:42 "finally a slow part, I can catch my breath !"
1:46 "nope" DRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
This is what happens when a dude who is already better than you can even imagine takes some time off to re-evaluate his entire way of playing and comes back even sicker than before
Just go ahead and *grind* that salt into the wound...
Idk that technique and posture is pretty questionable.
@@timsullivan2141 neither of those matter. If it works it works.
@@timsullivan2141 push pull is not a questionable technique at all, its just extremely difficult to perfect, which he clearly has.
His heel blocks are so big so he can gravity blast with his feet. Since he sits pretty high up the heels of his feet must be able to reach past the bottom of the pedal a little bit to get the motion just right to perform heel toe(RRLL).
Wise words by the drumming god himself, everyone
Literally coming to say this...the most positive brutal human known to man!🤘🏼 hails from Indiana!
@@joryjames3889 facts my guy
he just needs bigger boots lol and his kit suddenly simplifies ha ha ha John Longstreth demonstrates the value of the big sole. th-cam.com/video/kzn93KsJW24/w-d-xo.html
"c'mon bois we gon R U N N O F T" *car barrels through the barn, which is on fire*
@@russellzauner haha. DO NOT SEEK THE TREASURE
Little known fact: Alex Grind is a T800, sent back to grind us all.
No those are his triggers
@@matyassveceny7573 Listen Ivan, I'm sure you could do better, but I don't see any videos on your channel showing your elite skills.
@@matyassveceny7573 your channel doesn't have any content
@@B1tterAndThenSome no I couldn't do better bcs I'm not that into that fast playing, i'm not saying he is bad.
Fyi i'm earning some money for recording stuff, sum videos will ve soon, i hope.
@@SomethingBlack yaye not sh*t sherlock
One of the most if not the best metal deathcore drummer 😳😳
He has just such an authentic drumming style that is so distinguishable, unconventional, and just straight up rad. Will be always be a fan of this dude 💪👊
This is why Despised Icon was always so much better than most similar bands
There isn't really any band that sounds too similar to them really. Well decent ones anyway.
They are the pioneers of the deathcore genre. They were doing it years before it was a thing.
@@sneer0101 they're one of the pioneers, actual first pioneer was darkside nyc
@Paranoid Drummer then u need to do a deep research of how "damaged" and "Darkside NYC" pioneered the genre back in 90's
@Mezzy Mez you forgot Animosity
@Mezzy Mez Absolutely. The first ones i heard was All Shall Perish and Job For A Cowboy. Remember discovering them in 2008 and loved it. There was nothing like it.
I saw Despised in Toronto back in 2010 on their farewell tour with Oceano and Beneath The Massacre, such a sick show. I talked to Alex after the show and asked him about his technique, and he straight up told me he doesn't worry about technique and that he just learned to muscle it haha. Super chill and friendly dude, and incredible to watch him play live. He's an absolute unit too.
You know what's hilarious? I remember listening to Mortician alot. Hacked Up for Barbeque and 1997s EP Zombie Apocalypse and specifically saying to myself no one could play these drum machine tracks live! Their too fast! Fast forward 20 years and look at the shit these drummers are doing now.
pushing the boundaries of human ability
i always think about that... like 25 years ago i was used to see a band with drum machine... and now the same guys keep playing wwith a blast beast drummer thats sick
Cryptopsy had real drums FASTER than Mortician's drum machine at that time.
Dude, I literally thought the EXACT same thing when that Mortician album came out😂
@@6.thedollar415they were bursts though and that's not the same as continuous double-bass and blasts because if you want to go that route suffocations effigy Of The forgotten had some extremely rapid bursts and that was about 10 years before that!
Amazing as usual...
Triggers, gotta love em
@Chris E. exactly, he's still physically doing something that's pretty fucking difficult, not to mention that hand control.
I'm triggered
As a drummer, the way he plays makes me uncomfortable. How is he so good playing so weird. Even his grip on the sticks is not that good but he still slays
same, technique looks so weird, but he plays 10 times as well as me doing it so... can't tell him it's wrong.
He is using a lot of push and pulls, so his grip is according to his fulcrum.
But i can imagine he has a lot of shoulder and back pain haha
Watch Keith Carlock. He kills it but looks awkward while doing it. Both these guys are great at what they do. Cheers!
Cause this guy and other musicians alike that come from realm of music typically teach themselves how to play. These dudes are not classically trained and taught "proper" technique by like a jazz teacher or something like that. These dudes learned by listening, and used whatever means necessary to eventually be able to play stuff like this, and alot of the time it's not "correct".
Feelin' Uncomfort Watching His Drum Position, Grip Stick, or Snare Position?
Then Go Watch
- Nils Dominator
- Paul Mazurkiewicz
- Inferno
I've seen this before, the grip technique I think it's called the Push Pull (Open/Close) Moeller which I saw from an old Jim Chapin video. Whilst his foot technique is called Double Stroke, that I also seen from Wanja Nechtan and the drummer of Origin John Longstreth. The leaning part makes the the foot technique stronger and faster that even without triggers, you can still be able to hear it. This is total genius, and I believe he's self taught. Figured it out all by himself.
Strangest thing I've seen in a while but dude kills. A real fun video to watch. Entertaining as hell
I love how he is one of those guys who pulls their socks up so high that the heel pocket is bagging out over the back of the shoe. He is so rad. I just love Despised Icon so much!
This is some INSANE drumming holy smokes
Man his push-pull technique on the blasts and his double strokes on the bass are nuts.
Is this guy a human??? This guy is an amazing musician man, he doesn’t only play fast and intricate, but he plays it clean and in time. Keep up the good work Alex!!! 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
He always looks really tense and stiff armed I've noticed.
This man has to be self taught....and look how good he is all you fundamentally obsessive drum teachers
BuT hIS GrIp and PoStUrE as he dominates every aspect of that song to the point where no one is going to match it... and yes he sounds like this live. Absolute deathcore LEGEND
He probably has one of the most unorthodox techniques out there but he is a great drummer so why should he change his way of playing🤷🏼♂️
Exactly! I know alot of drummers that watch this are saying his doing it wrong but he's doing what works best for him. Everybody's body mechanics are different. Something I learned from play drums for 18 years.
Only if he's causing himself damage or limiting himself somehow. Otherwise, absolutely not.
What's unorthodox about a french grip or leaning into the kit?
@@djguydan I think it's just more that he looks very awkward in comparison to other extreme metal drummers.
@@TheWitchOvAgnesi Yet he's still one of the best
This band has always pushed the limits. This is so fucking sick that its unreal.
The muscle memory of GRIND is impeccable ❗️❗️❗️❗️😤
I Loved that very awesome drumming cheers for sharing.
I've always been amazed how Alex gets that much power in his strokes when playing so fast. When you listen to some drummers there's a huge difference in the snare strokes when they play blast beats compared to when they're not (which is understandable/logical). My theory is that Alex is actually a cyborg. There's no other logical explanation to this.
Those air blast on the snare are perfect. I really don't see anyone else do it that much.
This guy is a machine! Great playing. 🤘😉🤘
I was not ready for this. He a beast
Is like having an extra set of tendons in your wrists, hands, legs and Feet, Bloody Awesome work mate🤯👍👍👍❤🔥
The grooves are strong
What can I say other than Alex is fucking badass!! Love how he leans in for the blast beats!! Wow!!
You are so good man, nice job, awsome, inspiration for me
Dude a powerhouse 🤟love despised icon
those cymbal angles make my drum sticks cry
Brutal Alex 🤘🏼🥁🔥🖤
Perhaps the drummer has the hardest job. You see how all his limbs are involved, all his muscles, it's awesome.
And then he has to breakdown his kit after every show ☠ well we know he has ppl do it for him but still lol
9mfg this is beyond tckn brutal those bomb blast made my toes twitch ive definetly never seen anyone play like this im kinda sppechless fck yeah bro you slayed this
Hands down my most absolute favorite drummer of my time.
If drumming was an Olympic sport this man might be champion
Just discovered these guys! I like. :)
Alex is the first metal drummer I've seen who uses jazz technique to speed up his one-handed blasts. Watch his slight wrist roll and his slight circular forearm motion. It takes serious power *and* finesse to pull that off in a metal context.
Best drummer in the scene, always nailed it slayed it slaughtered it
HOW is it possible to play the drums like THIS ? Amazing 👌🤘🫡
0:39 That thumb & wrist-based blast is fire
This man is a great drumer
imagine being this good at anything
I LOVE THIS
I can’t stop watching this! 😃
The way he's set up his kit and the way he's sitting looks so alien
This is really 300 bpm and he looks so casual and relaxed during a lot of it. Insane.
Triggers
@@SammyMakepeace Hello bro, excuse my ignorance G, but what are "Triggers"?, Thanks.
@@Mxdxfxckxr they are for drums to make them one big, solid hit even when they are baby hits. For example, if someone was a tapper when blasting, triggers would make it sound very loud
@@SammyMakepeace yeah man Alex grind sucks. Triggers. He should play 300 bpm 16th notes louder than the actual bass drum trigger itself. He’s just a scrub. I hate it. He’s totally triggering his hi hats and cymbal stands too. DONT even get me started on the Oreo pedals
@@25stealthshooter I can't even tell if this is sarcasm or not lol
God of drums! More such videos.
Only getting better with age !!! I’ve always thought he was the one of the most innovative drummers !
Wooooow. Great, Mr Pelletier!
Such a great drummer.
Unbeliviable!
Grind forever!🤘
This is badass my dude
Bro makes my day everytime I watch this
This is chaotic and awsome at same time
Hands down 1 of the best in the industry!
He may have what seems to others an odd style or way to grip his sticks but this is what is comfortable to him. If it works for you then go for it. Doesn't matter how it looks , its how it sounds and this sounds epic.
Very nice looking drum kit
Need to buy their Unplugged album.
I stopped playing like this in my early 20's. Partially because I realized I was never going to stack up to those who could do it with air-tight precision, partially because it bored me and gave me little pleasure. I am a nobody and this is incredible.
This mans play style is as unique as a two-horned unicorn
Iconic breakdown.
So happy to see Papa Grind back at it. Ugh. So fucking good.
Kickass dude \M/\M/ I love the style \M/\M/
AMAZING!!!! RESPECT!!!
He just gets better and better
TRIGGERS always help you play drums so chill
This guy deserves a Emmy for that
Awesome!
fuck he was already insanely sick like 10 years ago for the 'final' DI show, then comes back even sicker with doubles and moeller down to a science. unreal!
He’s he doing one handed doubles on the ride bell at .41? Wow crazy 😳
was, is, and will be the boss!
Glad metal drummers do play throughs . Now you can see that Alex has been one of the best for a long time unlike all the sickdrummer shit with bad quality. It wasn’t always like this . Glad metal drummers are getting noticed a lot more outside of the metal scene !!!
Tight! 🤘🤘🤘
Holy shit. I have my super bass headphones on and I think I just blew my eardrums out!!
Nice groovy shit man!
When he leans forward like he is about to throw up beast mode is activated
WoOOOoooow!! 👏👏👏
"triggers triggers wah" this dude is the most untriggered dude in the scene. What the fuck, listen to that gorgeous snare
GUYS EVEN AT 1.75x PLAYBACK SPEED . HE NEVER MISSSED ANY NOTE. THIS GUY IS A LEGEND
Real sick af
On today's episode of Technique Gone Wild, Alex is going to show us how proper extreme metal drumming techniques can change your sound into cocaine-fueled demon drummer. I've seen him practice, its intense. Christ!
Why am i seeing this on my feed now? 2 years late. Homeboy is so short he needs pedal boosters. Lol The most unique custom enhancements ive seen on pedals ever.
Never clicked on drum video so fast. Then I'm like, shit where's my headphones. I really need to HEAR this! Big fucking grin on me the whole way through. Alex fucking grind. Nailed it to the floor. Awesome. Now let's watch it again 😈
BRUTAL 🔥🔥🔥
You are a fucking machine...slayed them drums like a boss.
Insane
that push pull blast, very nice ♥
Them doubles man Sic af !
I love reading the comments and how his playing style is unorthodox. ..
Wrf this is not drumming, this is CrossFit xD. With all seriousness, amazing.
Czarcie Kopyto!!! Alex is fucking beast, love his style, unique fills, patterns. This push pull technique is sick
next level blast skill, for real, im still learning about that.
👏👏👏👏
Cómo haces sonar esa batería.!!!!
🥁🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
