  • Another Opeth cover from the album Blackwater Park. This song is called Bleak and was played by Martin Lopez on drums. There are many things I love about this song. It has a lot of chill parts where you can just close your eyes and vibe with the song. I had them closed for almost the entirety of the song :') Also there's Steven Wilson singing in this track and that's wonderful. I love his music. And that ending is simply crushing I love it.
    The main difficulty with this song is as always the 10 minutes factor, the dynamic range required to play an Opeth song and so many small details to remember. I completely forgot a fill at some point but didn't really care. As long as I was still in the song and vibing that's the most important for me. This was my very first take. I was really stressed about this one so when I got it on the first take I had to let the emotions out. As always with Opeth hahahah
    These are some of my favorite covers to make. I'm very happy to have some time to dedicate to my youtube channel these days. Hope you all like the content.
    Thanks for your support ! Take care !

      Then they aren’t actual metal fans. I know that’s absolutist but frankly you’d have to be brain dead to not see the clear genius that is Opeth.

    Holy fucking smokes, this is your best Opeth cover yet, and one of the best drum covers I’ve ever seen, no lie. Dude, you even nailed the kickass reverb on the snare! What kind of sorcery was that?!?!? Lol, every time I get the urge to listen to this song I’ll just come back to this video, hearing you nail the drum parts so much more clearly than they were mixed on the album really made watching this video like discovering Bleak for the first time, it was such a fresh listen to one of my favorites from Opeth, your playing added so much to the dynamics of the song, and you absolutely nailed the ending! Incredible job Dylan, one of your bests to date!

So, I made the comment after The Leper Affinity how I was just waiting for it to go straight into Bleak...well as Bleak finished I could almost hear Harvest about to kick in ;) ...Dylan, I love the way you play, the passion you put into it and the clear enjoyment. Thank you for covering Bleak.
