When I started seeing this a few years ago, I thought it was some sort of joke.
@The Truth of the Matter indeed. I appreciate his speed. But I'm not a huge fan of his ideas. I'm really into Ken bedene. Speed, form, and rediculous skill.
Do Tomas Haake.
@The Truth of the Matter oh yeah yeah 😁
Awesome video. Can you do a YT legend? Please review Scott Ellis (for example th-cam.com/video/xpM6iHpRTxg/w-d-xo.html)
I just love the fact that, even if you detect some flaws in someone‘s playing, you never voice it in a disrespectful manner. The heart of a true pro. Cheers
thank you!
Its his accent and tone. Lucky bastard can say anything :)
This is a gold comment 🌟
Cause he cant play it
i hope you realize this man can't teach Aaron absolutely anything.
4:00 when you want to headbang but you have to maintain your prestige as a drum teacher 😁😁
I just wanted to be the first reply, jolly good comment.
Did you really just stop the video right before the gravity blast?
A true blue ball moment
Donavan Cargin I wanted comments on those blasts. Oh well!!
That's what I was waiting - bam - skipped it
@@ericsilsby9364 exactly. No idea why kids like this dude.
lmao dude he's literally dissecting the video part by part. if you wanna hear it uninterrupted go watch the playthrough
Finally, the analysis I've been waiting for! 😄
😁
Key word being "anal." Jesus that kid is a machine. But yeah great explanation man.
Using a practice pad as mousepad... :D
Haha you've seen it 😀
I do it
Lol i use my mousepad as a practice pad
I use a mouse pad as a practice pad
I use my pad as a practice mouse
I love how calmly you're talking about this.
First of all congratulations for the fair and sincere analysis! Thought I would only hear “he’s using trigger...”, “so fake...” and so on, but ended up seeing and hearing lots of interesting facts! Keep it up! Always nice to see these kind of videos and learn new stuff about drumming!
Thx alot bro..that was my main goal with this video!
@@TheWitchOvAgnesi thank you....you just made my day :-)
Agreed 100%! He took a topic that triggers (no pun intended, lol) a lot of folks and handled it gracefully and with honesty. Very well done, @Marthyn Jovanovic!
@@StephenChapman thank you
It would be one thing if it was triggers, the audio in the beginning 100% is superior drummer. It’s programmed. The cymbals are a dead giveaway, that main crash he rides on is without a doubt the superior drummer avatar kit
Please react to Marthyn Jovanovic, the former drummer of Belphegor.
Tomas Haake from Meshuggah?
Much requested :)
Clockworks play through is a good vid or yes the live bleed drum cam.
Yesss
Still waiting for gene hoglan
True American hate live great video of gene live and he drops a drum stick, bonus blooper

Thaddeus Cousins and Testament
“Gene is God. End of review”
@Thaddeus Cousins and Death!
Please react to Archspire's Spencer Prewett drumming!
I second this
Exactly THIS!!!!
I 3rd, 4th and 29th this
The playthrough of Lucid Collective somnambulation
His video playing rapid elemental dissolve pls
Aaron for sure seems to be able to play this stuff. its really impressive. in the live video he is struggling to play because all he's playing to is the song played on a speaker next to him so he cant really hear the song that well while playing. He's a crazy drummer for sure!
true that
Wanted to comment the same, really really poor aaron
@@BareStrength true that
Hugely important to point out that playing to a speaker is extremely unpleasant
@@thejeremymcpherson I have that same problem with guitar. Vocals, no problem.
I am seeing too many people saying what do they want to hear,and too little people commenting your video.It is really awesome that you can explain things so that even if someone is not a drummer he/she still can understand what are you saying,so thank you for that,and thank you for reacting to Aaron,he is a very good drummer.Keep up the good work man :)
thank you
Think this might be the first video you've done where you were critical of the drummer in question. Perfectly fair critique. Was interesting for sure.
True that..to be honest- it was not easy to say something negative but in this case I had to..
im a huge fan of IA and i don't think you were negative you gave a very honest and fair point of view and it was fun to watch cheers sir
@@bencousins9369 thank you
huh?
He's critical of every drummer he does a video on.
He's doing critiques on them...
He went to hull east riding music college, good guy. Its insane being in the same room when he's playing. So much noise from one kit. He's extremely fast.
Awesome ! Maybe Mario Duplantier from Gojira next ?
should be a good one :P
Yes please
@Bean's Butter Review Wagon I was also sure he'd already done it, but I can't find it? Withdrawn?
Awesome vid as always Marthyn. Still hoping to see you tackle Spencer Prewett from Archspire!
Thank you..its gonna happen at one point
Yep, had the same idea! If we're talking about speed, don't forget Spencer.
th-cam.com/video/rhxWIkiecOA/w-d-xo.html
+Mani Cash I ve already posted a video for Spencer☺
Check out Matt Gartska, drummer of Animals as leaders! Please do an analysis of his techniques, he is a great drummer! Thanks!
Navene koperweis
Luca Matt gartska is terribl.....bly amazing live
Ectogenesis would be a great one
C.A.F.O would be phenomenal
Ian Mills you had me in the first half I’m not gon lie
Yes I’ve been waiting for this spiritual moment
Enjoy
Amazing technical breakdown by someone who clearly has the experience and knowledge to bakc it up. Great work
This is the second time you've pointed out a higher sitting position as it pertains to the ease and speed of a technique. I really appreciate this and have decided to change my approach from level seating to something higher. I appreciate your videos more than any other analysis tuber. Thanks bruh! Wish me luck cause this is gonna feel like relearning double pedal use.
How did this go?
@@beau5296 speed and and fluidity. It's a whole new position though, so it takes time to almost relearn/tweak some techniques.
I have to say in all of the years I have seen Aron playing he has been mind blowing I have seen him onstage in his first bands & in the rehearsal room he is an incredible drummer for sure & such a nice guy too
Great video, he clearly understands that it’s programmed drums but also respects that Aaron is also a great fast drummer. Talking about what it takes to play these parts and his playing technique, only hoped he’d talk a bit about the gravity blast sections if only to see him play them 😁
I too was hoping he would let cuntcrusher play up until the gravity blast and I believe it's only 2 minutes in but for whatever reason he stopped the video just short of it. Booooo
I'm legit blown away by the live version. That was pretty damn close to the edited/quantized stuff we hear a lot of in metal these days.
Best Trolling drummer out there. He knows what he’s doing and he’s laughing hard at all the haters. Good times.
The best drum review I have ever seen. Nice
There is also another live video of Aaron, where he plays a cover of Thy Art is Murder. Because he couldn't hear the original song well, he messed up a bit while a blastbeat part. What is interesting here is that he played those blast beats faster than the original, I mesured that he nailed it with 300 bpm and every snare stroke was still well audible even when he was playing with left hand, so that's crazy. Also a really interesting thing about him is that he is playing extremely tight. When he is playing traditional blastbeats, the snare sounds are exactly in between kick sounds with equal periods of time and you can hear it on that live video where he plays cuntcrusher. Usually when drummers play traditional blastbeats, though the snare sound is in between kick sounds, it is a bit closer to the former kick sound than to the later.
Thx. Pls post the yt url of that video...thx
Yes! that was one of my requests, thank you very much! :D
you're welcome...enjoy
Me too
Can you react to the cowards deathbed drum playthrough by signs of the swarm?
Your positivity is so refreshing.
Pete sandoval from Morbid angel?
Yeah good call😀
I like his beats in terrorizer, fear of napalm is crushing
ABSOLUTELY THIS. His work on Covenant was decades ahead of its time.
Good call!
But why?
Thank you Marthyn for linking the article! \,,/
The master of editing/quantization
What's funny is that, I was gonna ask to do him in the next video
done :-)
GREAT analysis. Love the video
Seeing death metal played on an electric drum kit is messing with my head
Should see Richard Christy's twitter account. he uses a mix between regular and electric drums its really quite something.
They're death core aren't they? Not death metal
This video was great. I have seen your other vids, and you are very fair at all times. Very enjoyable to watch! Huge respect to you my man!
Heh, good to know I'm not the only drummer out there who does their level best to avoid using their shin muscles.
Edit: By the way, ever thought about doing one of these videos on Alan Cassidy from TBDM? Dude is a *machine.*
He's awesome in Infant Annihilator & Black Tounge. Love this video! You're good for pointers and easy to follow.
Thank you
3:43. Probably the most effective metal drumming technique you can have.
Been a percussionist almost my entire life and just stumbled across your videos. Just wanna say keep it up man, and the way you analyze without being rude or judgmental makes you a true class act. I never sub to stuff on youtube...but you just got a new sub
Jamie Saint Merat of Ulcerate please!
PLEEEEEEAASSSEEEEEE
PLLLEEEEAAAAASSSSSEEE
PLLEEEEEEAAAAAASEEEEE
Thanks Marthyn
, love your work and videos.
wow love your analysis and technical breakdown. Subbed, glad I found this channel!
Thank you very much!
@@drumtechniqueacademy, do you cover other genres besides metal?
@@christmas6666 I cover those vids that most ppl ask for...so it's not limited to metal drummers...
It’s finally here thank you man!!!!!!!!!
Thx alot for watching my videos
Make a video of Darkside from Mgła
yes this please
Holy hell, yes! I'd say he should analyze him in two parts. Once for Mgla, and once for Kriegsmachine where he really gets to shine.
th-cam.com/video/LLOvk0LwuGk/w-d-xo.html
Yes! I've been asking this for ages hahaha!
He's my absolute favorite drummer.
I love watching this guy I will be a lilfe time subscriber for life
This dude seems absolutely unimpressed by one of the most amazing drum playthroughs in the history of the earth.
One of the most amazing drum playthroughs?XD
Fake playing is amazing now?
It's fake
Thank you for such a detailed review. Was very interesting.
He’s actually the drummer from Black Tongue and the drum programmmmmmmer from Infant Annihilator.
He is only programming Drums he can actually play okay
I keep getting pulled into these video of yours. Interesting drummers you have looked into with great depth. Keep up the great work. Cheers from Toronto, Canada.
One day you'll get around to reacting to Matt Garstka. Looking forward to that :)
Really appreciate your response! Cheers!
The kit isn't miced up lol
And he has admitted to programming the drums. He is also credited for programming the drums on the album. He is a meme in the community, a self-aware one for that
alx NXS i think you are just jealous cause is a god at drumming
Musica Masonica ok then
@@someone.2070 The band is literally a meme made with the intention of being ridiculous and fake. He's good, yes, but not THAT good. Not many people are.
@Musica Masonica yeah lmao but the band is good lmao
@@Kain_R_Heinlein some also realize the drums are fake and don't really care
Oh yes!! I also wanted this. Thank you, very cool 👍
can you please do a video about eugene ryabchenko
Yes
Yes
Oh crap!
And a drum talk epidode with him! Haha
Eugene Ryabchenko its u
FINALLY! Thanks for doing this!
Please react to Eugene ryabchenko covering fleshgod apocalypse
Yes!
this break down was so good. loved it
could you do a reaction/analysis of Zach Hill? The guy's an absolute monster behind the kit. would love to hear your take.
Instruction is always so good coming from a Austrian . Love your videos, mate. Great balanced critique
:-) thank you
I am convinced Aaron can play that fast.
Marthyn, i think you have the most comprehensive explanation's of any drummer i've ever come across. in saying that, it
would be awesome if you could do a video on Trym, and explaining his technique. this is a guy who's style seems to stand
alone and is unlike other drummers. Trym is a phenomenon that needs to be unraveled.....thanks buddy. thumbs up!
Think of doing any Kevin Talley? Dying fetus or misery index era?
Hell yea I've been waiting for this
hi marthyn
you can analyse one of your video , can you? :))
Only if more ppl start to ask for it...
Marthyn Jovanovic I'm more ppl lol
@@drumtechniqueacademy I'm more people, too!
Márcio Chiabotto i'm even more people
@@drumtechniqueacademy I would love to see that video!!
Awesome seeing this. Love your analysis videos \m/
Would love to hear you talk about Nic Pettersen from Northlane and there's quite a few high quality playthrough videos from him to pick ! To me it's something else than just double bass speed, the dude actually grooves ... Cheers
My fav😍
I second this
Im a beginner in drumming, and i love watching you break these down
Thank you very much
New to your channel and love it. 🤘🏼 💀💀☠️
Probably will have a hard time finding something clear enough to see, but a reaction to Matte Modin would be excellent. Dude played some unreal licks while he was with Dark Funeral. I know he’s played in other bands but his chops on Attera Totus Sanctus are unreal.
I love infant annihilator \m/
Another great video dude,that guy is insane!!
Keep the great videos coming!!
I was the one who suggested this like a month a half ago. I suggested Aaron and Jimmy Pino. Thanks for doing Aaron you gotta check out jimmy Pino of Signs of the Swarm
Thanks for your analysis. This was a drummer i requested. I always wondered how he played such fast double bass, editing makes sense though i never thought of it. Cheers.
I’ll settle this “slowed down” controversy with facts... Watch the Cunt Crusher behind the scenes video. He _does_ splice together different cuts for his playthrough videos, but he plays along to a track that is going at 100% speed playing out of a boombox or something. So no, it isn’t slowed down, but also no, he can’t play these songs 100% accurately in one go. But most musicians can’t play songs 100% in one go, much less *_tech death_* songs, so I don’t knock him for splicing cuts together to show how the drums are played.
my understanding is that IA has told the recordings have machine and triggers in use to make the actual recording easier, but Aaron can play the songs. you might also take a look at Kai Hahto. hes one hell of a talented beast
You HAVE to review 66Samus! 🤘💀🤘
The same way HE reviewed Marthyn hahahaha
that would be awesommme lol xD@@magrildz
ohhhhhh yeahhhhh
Damnit how'd I miss this? Thanks sir!
BILLY RYMER PLEASE! Preferably "when i lost my bet"
I was one of the ones recommending this guy, thank you :).
I'm fine with triggers and replacement. Like it's the song that matters. Many of us love bands like Emperor, Dimmu Borgir, or Nightwish who have big orchestral parts. We don't say "oh but that was them playing a sampler not the actual instruments."
I don't care. It's the result that matters.
Man, I love this channel. This channel is so legit and this is what a reaction video should look like. Thank you for redefining the tag "REACT" or else I always skip those so-called react videos.
Absolutely this. Just came from a video where they played one of AI's videos, then one minute of "silly video, I didn't like it". Nothing added, nothing learned.
Flo Mounier from Cryptopsy!!!
yes pls
im gonna learn playing drums so this helps me! thank you for posting this
React to Jimmy “The Rev” Sullivan. There’s a drum cam video on TH-cam of him playing “Beast and the Harlot” live. He was legendary in the metal/drum scene. RIP.
Great analysis! Best “drum teacher reacts”!
The thing about IA is that they're purposely extreme like this on more of a joke basis.
Fuck yes. I’ve been waiting for this one. Great video once again
Good job on using recorded video. I don't think you NEED to use live video, and I actually think it hurts the quality of these videos (the despised Icon video). Using recorded videos with jump cuts is fine because the bonus of having good lighting and clean audio helps us see the details. Your videos are awesome, and I love watching them. do a swag ass vid on NICK PIERCE!
thx alot
Got a suggestion for the next reactions! Spencer Prewett from Archspire and 66Samus from Decrepit Birth (he has a youtube channel too).
I am learning a lot of things about drumming with your videos! Thank you!
your knowledge about drumming is fucking amazing.
Hi long time fan, just wanted to say I love your stuff. Also I'd love to see you do something in a line of reacting to some of the best historical drummers, to give us insight on them even if it were to be new series. Id love to see you react to Todd Sucherman or Phil Collins!
yes- both would be interesting... can you pls post the yt url of the videos you would like to see?
@@drumtechniqueacademy Id really love to hear your insight on this piece th-cam.com/video/1AdXd4gU6gs/w-d-xo.html !
@@drumtechniqueacademy Buddy Rich!
The second video was a joke video, the kick cam was sped up and the same cymbal made three different sounds. However, you still really nicely analyzed it.
For people saying that the drums are programmed, this is only true for their newest album 'The Battle Of Yaldabaoth' because Aaron Kitcher was depressed and not in the state to play the drums. However, the drums are programmed within his abilities.
For their older two albums, the songs are recorded in segments for all instruments, then later fit together. The only time Aaron fully drummed songs was for playthroughs like the Cuntcrusher one.
edit: Damn i just realized this video was uploaded 3 years ago lol
finally someone that ACTUALLY UNDERSTANDS
@@thelilpeanutdotgov I'm a huge IA fan and drum nerd myself, couldnt help but speak my bit about it haha
@@Verulyrus hey i’m glad there’s someone actually defending this guy and not just yapping about stuff they have no clue about, i try defending him but there’s so many people that hate him 😭😭
@@thelilpeanutdotgov haters gonna hate, their sorry asses just jealous they dont have that skill
Is this a dream?
Haha wake up 😀
Excelente apreciación maestro
