- Quick Shameless Plug - THE FAIRVIEW KIT !
www.RSDrums.co...
RS Drums is Anup Sastry & I's business, & we just released The Fairview Kit - a new virtual drum instrument. We're incredibly stoked on it, & we think you will be too. So please check it out!
ANYWAYZ(!):
Here's another cover on my continual quest to learn / record my favorites from the early 2000's (😂) - "Conquer All" from 'Demigod' by #BEHEMOTH ! Like many of these random covers I've done in the last couple of years, I was able to get the album stems for this song b/c of a rad dude in my Patreon (thanks brotha!). However, the stems did not come with an accurate tempo map... & if you can't tell, there're a whole lotta tempo changes goin' on (😂🤣). Moreover, this song (& I assume the whole album) wasn't tracked to a click. So... I had to MAKE a tempo map!
I've done this before - tempo mapped a song that wasn't originally tracked to a click. But I can honestly say that this was the hardest one I've had to do (so far, at least!). Not only is the tempo fluctuating pretty much the entire time, but there're also some fairly large tempo jumps that last only a few notes / bars sometimes. Eventually, I was able to map it (thanks to a lot of time/patience, & also a bit of elastic audio usage), but then came learning it...! Originally, I wanted to try to do all the blast beats as rimshot-blasts for this song... but lemme tell ya'll. Just trying to play tight with this fluctuating click/track proved to be plenty tough enough. Lol! All that said - while this song was surprisingly difficult, I've gotta say... I think the end result is pretty rad! Learning a song like this - trying to emulate the original drummer & his feel - is a really interesting (& fun) challenge. I've always quite enjoyed that. I did have to change a few things (broke up the crazy fast single stroke fills a bit towards the end 🤣... few other little things like that), but overall, I tried my best to stick to the original! I hope you enjoy it!

Big ol' thanks to Declan White for the slammin' mix, too! Declan's mixed most of my stuff in recent years, & he absolutely kills it. TBH, half the time, I can't even believe how much life he pulls out of everything. It rules (& so does he!). Thanks D00DE!

Holy double bass, Batman!
how he keeps it going for that long i have no fuckin idea (i do, it’s practice, but still) it’s fuckin insane
@@ericlucci2829 honestly, BPM is not that fast in this song. and after playing in The Faceless where it goes over 250 almost all of the time, this song sounds more like an acoustic interlude
@@teacherfromthejungles6671Word exactly this isn't even the most fast or technical he's done before.. Like riding a bike for him.. I think most of us have seen his Xenochrist playthrough.. Insane how clean and controlled he is.
This was my introduction to Behemoth and I’m still blown away by this record!!
Saw them In Las Vegas for the album tour. It was unfortunately terrible. I suspect they bought-in to the "... stays in Vegas" recreation lol
Ov Fire and Void if my favorite song from them! Possibly in the all time favorites category even to this day!
@@Lupine.i cant tell if your being sarcastic or serious because behemoth seems insane live, i cant wait to see them
same here, zos kia kultus was also really nice
@@Lupine. saw them live in 2006 in switzerland, they were pretty good!
Inferno's style is so recognizable. For me it's his hand work. Dude can probably rip apart NYC phone books.
@cog7795 LOL ok 🤡
Inferno is the second drummer next to Mike Smith from blast Suffocation to make me want to blast with raw power instead of trigs.
@cog7795 Oh Cmon not everyone technically can be like Jamie St Merat or Kevin Paradis...
This guy did A LOT for this genre and his drum arrangements are interesting AF!! Covering is easier than inventing it..
Still the greatest Behemoth album ever released, nothing will compare to this era.
Nah I'd give that up to the Apostasy for sure
That snare sound like a cannon!!!!! Bad ass Drummer🔥🔥
its a dream come true tbh wow!!
god damn that is a hell of a snare
The endurance is just ridiculous.🤘Alex never disappoints.
Man, you're hitting that snare with some SERIOUS authority, haha.
I never expected you to cover Behemoth. This is sick!!
The delivery he’s given of this song is fucking insane.
Perect timing on every fill and even adding his own little rudi twists to the fills,
Fucking perfection as always alex.👌
A lot of Anthrax "Be All, End All" in that riff. Great drumming!
Dooode. My thoughts exactly!!!
💯
Said the same thing 🤣
The computer generating the music is pretty generic. It's outta ideas so you know the earth is at its end
YEA! I find that comment!
@ShawnJonesHellion What a lovely tin hat you have, sir.
Inferno is an insane drummer! You did a really good job with this. That one crash one the right sounds AMAZING! Bro, this whole kit sounds gnarly!!!
This genre of metal fits your hard hitting style the best.
Un metrónomo con un groove desquiciado. Se ve en tu cara el sacrificio y la satisfacción de estar al nivel de los grandes en el mundo de la batería técnica del Metal Extremo mundial.
¡Enhorabuena, Alex! ¡Sos un monstruo, pa!
That Snare cuts like butter. One of the best sounding tones ever. So clear and crisp and versatile.
This is not what I expected to wake up to. What a treat
2:50 - ah, finally a few seconds to put your feet in a bowl of warm water 😆 The power in your strokes is just awesome. Applause!!
I loved your Nile cover and now you're treating us to a Behemoth cover. Amazing 👏
That snare tone is loud and I f*ckin love it!!!!
Absolutely monumental snare tone, holy fuck.
Promiński had a great platform for his creativity on Demigod, Apostasy and Evangelion. Although I do not listen to this band anymore, there is a great sentiment and your choice of track to cover hits the spot for me. Alex one more thing: your work on The Cull will always be one of the most precious pieces of musicianship I've seen and heard. Best wishes for you man. Pozdro666
Why is that? I stopped after Evangelion as well and they even used to be my favorite band when I was 18-19. I can't remember why but I can't stand the newer stuff
that snare literally sounds like a gunshot, awesome
hitting that snare so hard your mouth opens oddly each time haha killer cover
His left leg gets out of the way too, haha.
One of their absolute best songs. Dude, you nailed it in my humbled opinion. Had the pleasure of watching Inferno many times & this is perfect. Just no biker boots!!👀👀👊🥁🤘🤣
That snare ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was 14, subscribed to Guitar World magazine. This music video shows up in a DVD included with that month's issue. Shit slapped so fuckin hard. I'd never seen anything like it
some of these metal songs... the drummer runs a full marathon every set
this song has such a sonic identity
Sick cover and thx for the background info in the description. 🤟
WOOOOOOOWWWW...ENDURACE 💪😡🤘
Ugh love the sound of those toms.
Best cover of this track ever!
Even if I'm not a drummer myself I really enjoy your covers and your work. Keep making these..
Tight Alex🤘🏻
That setup is a monster, love it 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Stay killing it!
This is the most machinelike playing I've ever seen and I mean that in a good way. The consistency in velocity is nuts
Wow.
Some parts were perfected 👏
He is not a drummer ,he’s a weapon
Man to me your one of best drummers in world. Stellar playing as always 🔥🔥🔥
This is random af,and i love it.
Greetings from country of Behemoth 🤘 🇵🇱
That's fking tight man! Snare sounds good.
we can all agree...We saw the music video 4 this back in the early 2000s on headbangers ball...it was our introduction to behemoth lol then we discovered the track XUL
Amazing drum video, Master!
Greetings from Mexico City.
Nice work! The bass drum was like “nope, we’re gonna ride this one ALL the way through”. 😂 🤘🏻🤘🏻
That was SICK!!! Every but as good as Inferno. 🔥
Holy Jalupas now that’s what I call solid & decent double pedal playing 🤘🏻🤘🏻😎🥁
Man I love this album. What a great cover!
Unreal.
Magnifico.👑👑👑👑👑👑
Fuck dude, awesome drumming... calves for days with that track!

Hellyeah!!! Awesome cover dude, that was clean!!! 🤘
мой,ты золотой,любимая песня с альбома)
Hell yeah Rudi! 🥁🔥
What a Behemoth drummer
Holy shit! Sounds awesome🔥🔥🔥
Incredible
your drumming sounds so clean. hot daymn dood.
Love the fills in this one. Always amazed at how quick ad relaxed you play tom fills, particularly when using the left floor tom.
I just realized that a good number of the songs he covers are on Rock Band... which makes it very easy to get the tracks without vocals.
The stamina and timing are other worldly on this one.
We need more Behemoth covers from you. Fucking AMAZING job! 🤘
The song that got me into Behemoth!
I did not expect this cover but oh it is welcome!!
Your kid sounds amazing!
Nice Anthrax vibe to the riff!
like a machine!
DAMN! I need to listen to more Behemoth! That was SICK!!!! 🤜🤛🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
STRAIGHT BONED UP RN BRO
G.O.A.T! Fu*king great!
Holy fuck man, that was epic!!! 👏🏻
Holy cow man! Talk about fast double bass control 👍🏾👍🏾
I wish I could give more than one like for this. Perfect!
Hell yeah 🤘🏼
*Inferno* is Amazing 🔥
F YEAH MAN! 🔥🤘💀🤘🔥
Absolute unit of a song
Poor feets 😮
So good and solid work 💪
This song is soo brutal and what got me into behemoth.
This album is a masterpiece.
Dude. Yes.

[29 original guitar instrumentals]
Bull Pen (B-E-A-D-G-C-C#)
czcams.com/video/xLlioq880Bk/video.html
6 musical keys manifest: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 [used in reference to the following two (2) items: 1). The # of BLACK keys struck when using a piano keyboard to play each scale, and 2). The frequency parameter/range used in defining the scale.
In addition to the 6 scales I play "at 12 O'CLOCK" (my slang) for the last minute or so - This is otherwise known as the C# (sharp) Major scale [The C-sharp major is a major scale based on C♯, consisting of the pitches C♯, D♯, E♯, F♯, G♯, A♯, and B♯. It is enharmonically equivalent to D-flat major. Its key signature has seven sharps. The C-sharp major scale]: With all notes being # (or all just "black keys" on a piano keyboard), the C# major scale is not possible to be played using piano; on the guitar however, voila ~TIME TRAVEL (!!!!).
A guitar fretboard, and the scientific application of frequency manipulation for Time Travel:
TIME TRAVEL-
czcams.com/video/KFqNmE6SFy8/video.html
Guitar playing = Time Travel: scientifically, the proof is simplified on my napkin (and explained in the Video):
The guitar's fretboard enable's removal of all "written" representation of said "music" - including the "measure" portion of written music. 4/4; 5/4 etc.. or the beat. When the TIME SIGNATURE is removed, BOOM - time travel. Voila.
The guitar: On each string the following occurs along the fretboard [Whole tone = 2 spaces on the fretboard. Half tone = a single space on the fretboard]: Whole tone - Whole tone - Half tone - Whole tone - Whole tone - Whole tone - Half tone (repeat) = THE MAJOR SCALE.
Guitar is all together the coolest thing.
-The
He 100% nailed this in every way and that snare tone is about as perfect as it gets 👌 The only other metal drummer that has a snare tone that sounds this good right now is Nic Pettersen from Northlane.
I hear you, I gotta check out Nic Pettersen, but what about the goat, Thomas Haake, that snare is the be all end all for me!
Sounds sick man!!!!
That snare is ridiculous
Perfecto!
Nothing wrong with that! Amazing job!
a monster!!!
Awesome job. Was my first Behemoth song. Still my favorites. 🤘🖤
God DAMN, dude!
Seeing Alex blast always makes me happy.
HELL YEAH DUDE I FUCKING LOVE THIS SONG
Always blown away. Love it 🤩
Ale wklepane;) pozdro z Polski!
Beast 🔥
Very extreme difficult final song. Amazing Alex!
This was peak Behemoth.
2:27 was the first time i experienced the meaning of "groove" in extreme metal drumming back then when i started playing drums myself. Inferno really is one of the most influential drummers in this scene. Rüdi too of course :)
yea that ride seems a bit polyrhythmic , its a nice touch
Brutal cover broh 🤟
