@@lordsozehcp5362 Best means "my personal teste" and anyone has their own. If you mean better for speed Fils is one of the best around, maybe the best, the Usain Bolt of black metal, and it doesn't just have only that quality, obviously... I like Darkside, his groove and his uniqueness. Trym, who is very underrated imo, is a war machine. Frost, an icon of the genre . Horgh is brutal AF. There are so many, it's hard to find one.
Nils is master of the drums. Even if you don't enjoy this style of music, Nils ability and musicianship is unquestionable. The phrase "masterclass" is thrown around a lot now, but Nils' compositions truly are masterclass material.
Speeding ticket everyday 🥵🥵🥵 These are some inhuman blastbeats. And the sound of the drums is like Thunder just before the flood came to drown all the sinners!
this works perfect because with the headphones I thought dude was a troll and those were his ears for a minute. I was like dang troll really got the chops. he's killing it
I'm gonna just say this... Nils playing in DF was like a using a thoroughbred race horse in a kid's pony ride at the fair. I love DF, but he actually had to hold back on a lot of their songs live... just to play in tempo. Nils is on a different fuckin' level.
Hes doing double stroke rolls in his fills lol. That shit is so cool. This dude is on a completely different level. I wish he was still in Dark Funeral. Hes so accurate and militant with his style, yet can play a groove so well. Jalomah is good, but Ive seen some live videos of him playing soo sloppy. Everybody has bad days though I guess. I saw him live and he was good then. But still, Dominator all the way.
that is absolutely bonkers. a lot of drummers who play fast take little micro breaks in between their blasts, whether that's dropping to play some eighths on the cymbals with some intermittent 16ths or whatever. but the fact that you can sustain your blasts for long periods of time is what's truly impressive and an incredible demonstration of skill, and very rare.
This is why it’s so great. First off he plays with such confidence and conviction. Second, there are no missed notes. He’s carrying on the tradition of Pete Sandoval around the Formulas Fatal to the Flesh era in 1998. After every Crash it’s immediately back to the Ride or Hi-hats without missing the next 8th note. No micro breaks to recover. No two bars of blast beats then either a fill or start hitting accents on a China cymbal to give the non-snare hand a tiny bit of relief.
As Nils explained in stuff he did for Marthyn's DTA: He "rests" his hands while doing all those fills inbetween blast beat, so afterwards he can go again fresh.
Yeah I've seen, but regardless he still has incredible stamina and needs those rests way less often than most extreme metal drummers today @@AUM_-po9sc
Today's scene BEST drummer. I quit "following" BM bands years ago because of continual disappointment with todays scene. I "follow" musicians, more than bands. Nils is clearly a musician that i still keep an eye on what he do. Last Nordjevel wasnt as good as their previous effort, sadly, but Nils still Annihilate everything. That Horde of Hel album is alright. I like a few tracks, but again, i'm "all ears" to the drum works, and don't mind much whats going around Nils drumkit. Really hope you stay healthy and fit for many years to come, Brother! \m/
look at how the drumset shakes at a regular speed, like how a regular drumset shakes when a hard-hitting drummer but not as fast plays. evidence that this playthrough doesn't seem to be sped up. plus he plays like this live too so
Creo y pienso que es el mejor baterista de black metal de todos los tiempos 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻lo descubrí cuando tocaba con dark funeral, en el album de 2009. Luego con nordjevel
@@AFrames763 Epic dude, sounds like we have very similar influences! I have never seen anyone dominate tom fills like Nils, the only logical explanation is he is possessed by a drum demon.
Majestic as always, man. Went straight to Spotify to check the whole album out. Your drumming's REAL and Human, no machine can do this. Hails from Venezuela!
Wow! You always amaze me man. You're hands down my favorite drummer and inspiration for the craft itself. Wish I was able to take your classes one day hopefully. That'll be incredibly amazing.
Nils, can't be said enough, no words to express how perfect it is... I have a really hard time finding the words. Let's start with the fact that for a long time I had no idea why a black metal drummer fascinates me so much these days, after 20 years of listening to extreme metal and countless concerts... I really had no idea, I just felt that it was something intangible, something special, something too complex to understand at first. At first, of course, what I perceived from it was the surreal, unreal fast playing and fanatical radiance during playing. After that the complexity, variety and precision of the themes, totally overwhelmed, insane speed and a very unique, unusual, characterful style. It's a very unique, very creative drumming, as I can see becoming more and more deeply structured, developing and refined over time, becoming more and more insane and irrational. I didn't understand for a long time what makes it so interesting to me that not a day passes before I listen to one of the "Dominator masterpieces". I didn't understand why it was so unusual, even though I know and love the work of countless excellent drummers, somehow this is different for some reason. There is something strange about it, something exciting, out of place, but still fitting in perfectly. It fills me with an excitement that cannot be compared to anything else. I used to listen to a lot of electronic music, but it still took a long time to realize that yes, there are unusual but familiar things in it, and these electronic music influences in the drum themes makes extreme metal very interesting. When I saw that you share a lot of videos that you play dark electro and other electronic music, I realized that maybe this was so unusual until now, or at least this is one of those things. Very creative and unpredictable, one thing is for sure, no matter what you play, it's brilliant and addictive :) Absolutely out of this world. You deserve the deepest respect.
Not only he can play crazy fast blast beats at 280+ bpm, but he can also groove, and have awesome fills with great dynamics. What a beast. Nils rules.
I agree. And with quality strokes that are precise and powerful. Throws in some ghost notes on the snare within some of those fills. Incredible.
Totally agree. This guy is a fucking animal. One of the greatest BM drummer, period. His timing is perfect. Perfect.
Where were the dynamics? Was there a secret track?
@@ryansharp4691 the groovy part from 1:10 - al these ghost notes

I never get bored watching Nils play the drums
Same. I’ve watched this video like 5 times
His stick floating left and right on the snare is mesmerizing 😆
My bible caught fire while watching this video. 🔥 📕🔥
01:10 that was the sickest cymbal fill I’ve ever heard
Absolutely incredible drummer
Nils is master of the drums.
Even if you don't enjoy this style of music, Nils ability and musicianship is unquestionable.
The phrase "masterclass" is thrown around a lot now, but Nils' compositions truly are masterclass material.
Playing this fast and precise while incorporating dynamics and groove is really out of this world
The 5 stroke roll fill at 0:49 is some real good stuff
I was thinking the same thing but I wasn't sure what it was.🤟
Dude's blasts are unreal!!!!!🔥🔥💪🏾💪🏾
Nils, we need more of these videos!
Speeding ticket everyday 🥵🥵🥵 These are some inhuman blastbeats. And the sound of the drums is like Thunder just before the flood came to drown all the sinners!
Crazy dynamics on those fills on the halftime part!
Agreed man! The first thing I thought of besides the insanely tight megafast blastbeats again, man.. what a beast you are Nils! massive respect :-)
@@frozenrealm666 Yep, I'm "used" to the blast beats by now so things that throw me off are the clever fills/dynamics.
its him
The best extreme drummer of our time!!
Incredible speed, stamina, precision....just wow 👌
I can’t stop watching this
Right On!
😮You are the best Nils FJ, the most beautiful and fastest machine, follow him, greetings from Spain
Like OMG he is just the freaking best. Nils Rock On!!!
I think you just elevated from "Dominator" to "Annihilator". Bloody fuckin hell! That was INSANE!
Incredible 🤘🏴
Couldn’t say it better myself! 🤘😂🙌
The ear phones make him look like he has troll ears, like Mortiis
this works perfect because with the headphones I thought dude was a troll and those were his ears for a minute. I was like dang troll really got the chops. he's killing it
I must watch this every day
Pure Talent and Dicipline This Guy! Mad respect! 🔥
Man, this is insane! Shit like this is why I miss Nils in DF! As awesome of a drummer Jalomaah is, Nils just brings that exra flavor!
I'm gonna just say this... Nils playing in DF was like a using a thoroughbred race horse in a kid's pony ride at the fair. I love DF, but he actually had to hold back on a lot of their songs live... just to play in tempo. Nils is on a different fuckin' level.

@@endowednigerian
hard to imagine the energy you feel playing that and than immediatly stopping at the end
i feel aggressive watching this :D
The blast technique is so clean omfg
Fuuuuuucking hell. Did that snare spill your pint, or something?!
Just a "thank you" for taking the time to record and upload. Phenomenal drumming.
Ridiculously fast but still he manages to make it work and even sound musical
Just can’t fathom this drumming. Crazy how people can’t reach these ridiculous levels. Like top 10 athletes in traditional sports.
Känns som 280 bpm,, Helt sjukt,, Mycket bra spelat,, SVenska musiker håller hög klass

Nice relaxing summer beat ☀🎶
Out of all the drummers in the world out there and there is some bad badass drummers out there this guy is my favorite
The absolute king of metal❤
such a legend drummer
I'm going to be honest, I listened to it twice. It's extremely powerful!
Just twice?

It's apparent with younger bands. Every 4 bars there's a long fill to recover the legs and hands.
