Bear in mind he didn't even recorded drum parts for the "Vobiscum Satanas" record, and still made this song very much his own, pure speed and technicality, sick drummer.
He use techniques that doesnt take so much energy and he's not so big which means he can use his energy longer than a bigger dude. Watch he's face, he breathes through he's mouth, most drummers forget to breathe deep through their mouth, some hold their breathes and after a time they breathe heavily like a fat guy in sahara.
Fuck I missed this man. Been on tour with him 6 weeks and every night he put his all into it. Great dude to hang out with too, such a brother and an achor!
Sorry, but it is NOT accurate. It is so fast that it may seem that way. Don't get me wrong, the speed is amazing and sounds clean to a very high degree, but it's pretty much all he's got. As soon as he slows down you hear he can't play slow. But in its genre, pretty damn impressive!
@@flabbergastmau Not true in the case of Nils, he plays traditional slower heavy metal songs just fine & with the required groove. This guy is not all about speed. There are clips where he plays more traditional rock/metal covers too with some cover band.
Still listen to this daily. My coworker were blown away. Told them to look up dark funeral 😂😂😂😂 they think im crazy. Been a dark funeral fan since 1997.
His nickname matches his style perfectly. His drumming is not as tasteful and sophisticated as Darkside’s, but it’s just pure domination and sonic holocaust. He’s an excellent musician
I like to think like you say, but I also like to think that "dominator" means that he dominates all the other drummers, in a sense he is, he's amazing... an atom bomb.
Finally one drummer who uses whole kit. Been dark funeral fan since 94-95 and i know that he aint in DF anymore. Respects from Finland. This is bm machine.
Since I discovered this video, I watch at least a portion of it almost daily. I'm not even into this genre or familiar with this band aside from these Dominator drum-cams, but he's truly satisfying to watch.
@Gary White Yup, based on what I’ve heard. I’ve followed Dark Funeral since Caligula left the group. When Nils became the drummer for the group, comments circulated saying that Nils is actually righty playing a left-handed set-up. At first, I wasn’t sure if I believed it. But after years of playing myself, I can imagine a man with 20+ years of playing experience could develop that ability. After all, Dave Lombardo is a lefty who plays a right-handed set-up.
I was in a festival, in 2007, where this band performed. I didn't know them, and I'm not much into black metal. But they started playing and I went just by the closest point to the drummer and my jaw dropped for an hour.
This definitely sets the standard for future drum cams, holy shit! One of the best! (I mean audio wise, the mix is just brutal!) The skill of the drummer is of course absolutely epic!
latuman its a really creative and super quick fill (as its called in drumming), and yet so precisely executed. previous dark funeral drummers were fast but less creative imho
fucking insane. contrary to some other black metal bands...this guy is finding a way to put creativity and originality in his drumming. The patterns between the ride and Crashed is phenomenal. Not just fast and nonsense like a lot of drummers out there. Amazing
His technical skills are astounding, no question about it. The other astounding thing is how many fantastic musicians have come from Scandinavia period.
When I listen this guy playing, I can't stop thinking about all those videos on the youtube with titles like "The best extreme drummer of the world", "The fastest drummer of the world" bla bla bla.... and, after that I remember all the guys that put videos of themselves with lots os cameras e great sound quality on the youtube just to show how good they are HAHAHA. This guy plays faster, better, with lots more imagination and with a superhuman precision... and he don't give a fuck about all that show off shit. You see "extreme METAL drummer's"? This is how all of you should behave...
Check out Wanja Gröger of Keep of Kalessin. Is push-pull technique allows him to play incredibly loud blast beats. I think there's only 1 video of him playing live with them, song is called The Divine Land.
2:52 wow😮😮 que bestialidad lo que toca!! Dios mío, cuando no pensaba que podía sorprenderme más de lo que ya me sorprendió, agarra y mete ese remate...
Yes ! without him I would not be exposed to this amazing talent. I just can't believe how seeing him for 4 mins made me instantly believe he is better than any drummer i know
I see quite a few of you drooling over 1:54... and it is quite good. But let's be honest here, the drum part that starts @ 1:30 that is followed by the more intense drumming after is one of the best transitions ever.
Whenever I see people post drummer vids talking about how good someone is and that nobody can touch said drummer I show em Nils and they are at a loss of words. PRECISION at its finest. Super tight. One of the best no doubt
He’s fast, but you’re stretching it a little bit. Thomas from Meshuggah and his polyrhythms laugh at this shit. Plus in all honesty, this kit sounds like the beginners test kit at guitar center, and his triggered bass pedals are TOO noticeable.
If you guys watch his fills at half speed you can actually hear his precision is insane and to imagine he plays it at lightning speed... Truly no words
finally some kickass metal drumming. thanks to youtubes brilliant loops ive been watching jazz and gospel drummers for ever. dont get me wrong they're really good, but oh man i loves me some sweet metal
I think it deserves more attention, it is an absolute beast, very fast, precise and bestial. I hope his passion leads him to be among the best in the future as he is showing it. Hails Nils, You are one of the best!!
I JUST HEARD THIS FOR THE FOR TIME AND IT HAS SO MUCH POWER TO IT THE DRUMMER IS TALENTED AND HIT ME WITH GREAT MUSICAL POWER AND THE ARTIST'S WHO CONTRIBUTED!!!
If you put this guy anywhere,and I mean anywhere,with his drum set,I guarantee you he will amaze,there's probably less than 100 people on earth who can do what what he just did.
He is burning an immense amount of energy in just that one song, I can only imagine his calorie burn over an entire concert. It's like running a marathon - amazing!
HOLY FUCK! I've seen this videos several times.. every time I watch it again, I get more amazed by this execution. Sometimes he becomes an unrecoginzable human. I mean, I've seen some GREAT players, Alex Rudinger, Roumain Goulon, Spencer Prewett, but THIS is something completely else. Hope you guys understand what I mean. I'd love to see this guy playing with guys as talented as he is. Hundred percent amazed here.
I like how the camera glitches and flickers right after he looks straight into it, as if his power is just too much for the puny electronic device to handle.
After this performance, the drums needed a cigarette
They needed a coffin, those toms & cymbals we're DONE ;)
@usa girl Well that's what makes this performance even more impressive, that fucking uncomfortable armor he's wearin', and combat boots ;)
@usa girl the only crap is your comment..
After this performance he, as an honest man, has to marry them.
HAHAHA
He's level 100 in light armor, which increases attack speed once mastered.
Explains everything.
Dont forget Critical hits :)

Watch he's face, he breathes through he's mouth, most drummers forget to breathe deep through their mouth, some hold their breathes and after a time they breathe heavily like a fat guy in sahara.
I think he uses a lot of power especially on fills so it has to take much energy imo. Maybe blasts not that much :O
Mikael Karlsson the fuck kind of bullshit acience is that dude stop.
Whenever Dominator plays, a Bible somewhere bursts into flames.
soulless And the koran
Burn the Bible and Koran and Torah
Shut the fuck up and bay your pills.

@Gary White It’s funny you say that. Because like Nils, Dave Lombardo plays a set-up opposite his dominant hand.

Doatello1991 Even a beast like nil still cant get down the lombardo lick. Its ok 99 percent of drummers cant. Its how good Dave was in his prime.
Around 3 min he do one with hi-hat senare and Toms sooo great
Jesus christ he hits his toms so hard, fast, and accurate
Hes holding the stick on the back end which gives an extra bit of leverage. His speed is incredible considering hes holding the stick like that.
No he's not holding the stick backwards. U can see the tips on his sticks..

The power of Baal compels him

I’ve probably commented a few times on this video, but I can’t stop saying Dominator is legitimately a contender for best drummer in BM. Ever.

Nils has his 3 hour gym work out done in 4:24 minutes.

If it wasn’t for the rest of the band visibly up front I would say the video was sped up. Incredible...
Love that he is left handed. I am too, but he puts me to shame. Can't deny his speed and how precise he is.
I had to go take a nap after watching this...
So fast and so clean! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
This is the most fucking amazing piece of drumming footage around.

1:47 he successfully breaks the space time continuum with that fill and begins to Astral project in the video.
Amazing skills. Super fast and super tight 🤯
Watching Nils drum to this never gets old. I also love his drum cam for Celestial Deconstruction by 1349
Great job, amazing.
And when he's not drumming, he's the cook up at Candlehearth Hall.. 😉⚔️
