so sick. love how much he gets into it. nothing better than a drummer who physically shows how passionate they are. nothing worse than a guy sitting there looking like they would rather not even play. ew
Seems like almost all killer extreme metal drummers in europe come from either germany or poland (few exceptions ofc Kollias etc.) why? Germany discipline. Polish Power That's how they do!!!
@Frodamn Daimonos is the Latinised spelling of the Greek word for demons in ancient Greek religion. He also alludes to Greek mythology with his references to Chaldean Priests, with Chaldea being the Hellenistic Greek word for an area in Babylon that is today Southern Iraq. I've actually learned a lot of cool historical facts from Behemoth. Amon Amarth is good for that, too!
out of curiosity are there a specific kind of sticks that make doing that snare technique easier. im sure its mostly conditioning but still ill do anything to be able to hit the snare like that
Just set a metronome at a good starting BPM, and increase it over time. Make sure you're perfectly on time all the way up. Maybe you can get 270 BPM one day.
Devin Taylor I've been practicing french grip for 4 months now and am already able to blast at 230 bpm for 10 seconds, 25 seconds ar 225 and 2 bars at 270. So its not so hard to do
@EthanGray11 i think the snare is a 14x6 or 14x5.5 with the batter tuned very tight and the resonant is between medium tight, the heads i think are aquarian, hope this helps
THIS GUY is one of the best drummers i've seen. But damn, he missed some parts. Still, the drumming still sounds unique and badass! Keep up the good work, Jan!
well, probably you are the only one who can play Behemoth's songs properly. Big hails from Gdansk (poland), Das Is god my friend :) Take care!!!! And more blast beasts, POETRY!
music = knowledge, not style or other boring borderlines. Death Metal is extreme music and any good musician would appreciate it. hellllll f****ing yeah!.
@luciferincestus i completely agree... Jan is a definately in the best drummers out there... along with kollias, brutal dave, roddy, hell hammer, nick barker, tony laureno, romain goulon... many more.... love this video... thanx Jan!!!
Ive never seen anyone ever drum like this with a wardrobe like that haha. You do not look like a death metal drummer at all, but hell, Mohammed Suicmez doesnt look like a death metal guitarist haha. Awsome job man. U hit the nail on the head with this one. U score a 15 out of 10.
I'm not saying I can play it perfectly, or even as good as this guy, but I'd call that an 8 out of 10. I'm pretty sure ALL the blast parts have the crazy triplet double bass.
Wikipedia tells me that this guy is not the drummer for Behemoth. Is he just a studio guy? Did he record this for Behemoth or is this just a drum cover?
The only man who can make polo shirts metal as fuck
nope. didnt happen
Um yes it did
i counted how many times he hit the snare. It's at least 14 times.
That finger control though, bet the ladies love that
Jan really does make this look effortless. His feet and hands look like there barely moving. Simply amazing on his part this is insane
I quit. No more drums for me.
good thing i like playing sludge
Keaton Williams lol!
so sick. love how much he gets into it. nothing better than a drummer who physically shows how passionate they are. nothing worse than a guy sitting there looking like they would rather not even play. ew
Watching this makes me realize how great Inferno is to come up witht that impossible shit! And this dude kills it all! Great job man!
amazing natural drum tone and talent. mad respect
Jan Benkwitz which planet r u from? this is just unbelievable!
Holy shit..this is metal viagra. Brilliant job, man...
One of the greatest Drum Tracks by far
I can do this slower
I bet I can do it slower than you
im the best at doing this slow. i do it so slow i havent even hit the first note yet
Bitch please, I'm playing it slower than all ov you with my mind, I don't even need to move.
Seems like almost all killer extreme metal drummers in europe come from either germany or poland (few exceptions ofc Kollias etc.) why?
Germany discipline.
Polish Power
That's how they do!!!
Because they learned from all the American death metal drummers who created the art and improved upon it.
True but ruclips.net/video/ldFk6_0AdgI/видео.html
Nils is Norwegian I guess... :)
Haha from the first minute you can see Jan's really feeling the song, awesome man
That's an awesome sounding kit
ive never seen anyone play this wow so intense!!!
fucking astonishing
Love that snare sound
Sick foot technique dude
Total finger control. FEEL THE POWER!!!
Freaking killer job on the blasts man, great overal control tightness and stamina. Excellent :)
You gotta give him credit, he`s a beast. Don`t be jealous.
Amazing.
this video is all kinds of awesome
You simply fly over those drums man, you kick so much ass!!!
Really Extreme drumming.... no words to describe this....

that was themost epic intro ever!!! thumbs up if you agree
Flawless cover! amazing....
this is incredible
@hyrael2 - Jan has full access to our youtube account and uploads his own videos here... as do many others.
@EthanGray11 i think the snare is a 14x6 or 14x5.5 with the batter tuned very tight and the resonant is between medium tight, the heads i think are aquarian, hope this helps
Tight, tight, tight!!!
@DRAG0NSIN7 It's an Evans Black Hydraulic snare head. The Snare is some Yamaha Steel Snare that's 14x6.5.
But yes, the head is tuned quite tight.
this vid should have a million view...
Bow to YAN in adoration!
FOCKING BEST I EVER SAW !!!!
Respekt! Einfach Wahnsinn!
Those are Vic-Firth SIH 1 headphones, they can be picked up almost anywhere. Very popular and nice headphones :)
Impressive, really nice playing
THIS GUY is one of the best drummers i've seen. But damn, he missed some parts. Still, the drumming still sounds unique and badass! Keep up the good work, Jan!
amazing
hats off Jan... this is just pure awesome .... (Y) feeling short of words to express it... great (Y)
he's a machine!
What type of beater do you use on these axis ? and do you use toe-spacers ?
BEHEMOTH IS BY FAR THE MOST IN YOUR FACE MONSTROUS SOUND DEATH/BLACK METAL BAND EVER
Also he is an UE artist. THE MAN
@Kentsuruki 1:31 - 1:34 is a bomb blast, it's a blast beat where you play twice as fast with your feet as with your hand that is hitting the snare.
Great song, great band, great cover. Insane finger technique and great sounding. That only shows how great drummer Inferno is!
Yes!
DUDE... you killed that man... 5 stars for you!!!
Guy has great foot control...some of the best ive seen in a whle.
well, probably you are the only one who can play Behemoth's songs properly. Big hails from Gdansk (poland),
Das Is god my friend :)
Take care!!!! And more blast beasts,
POETRY!
music = knowledge, not style or other boring borderlines. Death Metal is extreme music and any good musician would appreciate it.
hellllll f****ing yeah!.
This is the best fucking drum cover of Daimonos on youtube.
OUTSTANDING JOB!!!!!!!
i like how everythig is orange it looks cool
AWesome. Great drumming. Behemoth rules.
@luciferincestus i completely agree... Jan is a definately in the best drummers out there... along with kollias, brutal dave, roddy, hell hammer, nick barker, tony laureno, romain goulon... many more.... love this video... thanx Jan!!!
Bad ass man!!!
Ive never seen anyone ever drum like this with a wardrobe like that haha. You do not look like a death metal drummer at all, but hell, Mohammed Suicmez doesnt look like a death metal guitarist haha. Awsome job man. U hit the nail on the head with this one. U score a 15 out of 10.
That's insane!
@mikethorson YYZ is pretty hard to play, but the four-way independence in this song just smothers it skill wise.
Wahnsinn!
Impressive!
this is sick man, congrats!!!
Sick song and drumming. Rulz!!!
soooooo goood
Job Well Done!
Anyone know what the head on the snare is, ive never seen a black evans head and i know its an evans
The sound of that snare is AMAZING.... What snare is it?
Sick!
I'm not saying I can play it perfectly, or even as good as this guy, but I'd call that an 8 out of 10. I'm pretty sure ALL the blast parts have the crazy triplet double bass.
Incredibly incredible
Woo, 666 likes! This is amazing, it's almost impossible to follow Inferno's drumming, but he played this as if it were easy. Good job!
awesome blasts men
Axis longboard or pearl eliminator demon drive ?
you're PERFECT !!! FAST and TALENTED ... AMAZING JOB
what drum head do you have on your bass drum
really good
awesome
It'd still be impossible to replace Inferno, unless this guy can think of a insane drumtrack like this.
If they need to replace Inferno, this guy would fit perfectly.
Very talented
Holy crap, he's good!
just... SICK DRUMMER
Awesome :D
What happened to the 720p version!?
Level: God.
the path of the left hand blast. Dude, this blast awesomeness. What have you done to your left hand?
wich tipes of stick do you use?
very nice.
how long you played that you can play such fast ? :)
Awesome technique.
twin with Inferno hahaha! Great work Jan \m/.
why has this guy never been in the MD festival?!! he needs to get his name out there!
Jesus tap dancing Christ. Wow.
great cover! love your set!
Wikipedia tells me that this guy is not the drummer for Behemoth. Is he just a studio guy? Did he record this for Behemoth or is this just a drum cover?
Der Mann ist eine verdammte MASCHINE! Genialer Drummer.
That was very impressive!
What snare is?
