As a big 90's Cradle and Barker fan, I really appreciate all the attention to detail you've paid in these covers. Barker had such a masterfully slick and creative approach to percussion....although the bands latest drummer is definitely capable, its a bummer to see him alter such perfect drum fills. Great work my friend
Couldn't have said it better. His art is by far the band's best. Do you know what he went on to do afterwards? If he had went into another band or did some solo work?
YES!!!!! Man I remember when this came out! Reading Metal Maniacs every month... jamming all sorts of new stuff that was great. Its just not the same anymore :(
Same those were the best days, I could tell just by an article or interview if I’d like something or not. I found so many great bands when they were first coming out.
Metal Maniacs wasnt Mainstream.... Metal Edge was, and now Decibel and Revolver are like todays counterparts to the Metal Maniacs/Edge days. But there was nothing Mainstream about Maniacs. It had underground demo reviews that my band was in 3 different times and they always covered the best of the best bands. That was the only way to find out about bands so you had no choice as there was no internet like it is today.
I know right??? I have every edition from 94-2007 or whatever year they stopped. I still have them all in 2 huge boxes...not sure what IM to do with them, but Id like to maybe one day sell them to some sort of Metal shop or something that would take care of them and display them
It's good to hear this song with drums that don't sound terrible! The playing on the album is phenomenal but the drum sound is terrible. Your cover is flawless!
arsssis yeah I cannot wait! They are using the original tapes from 20 years ago and taking back to the studio. Check out Dani filth on Instagram he mentions it a couple of times recently think it's nearly completed
Man, so impressive that you keep things stable when Dani rushes the vocals, he did that alot on the earlier albums trying to spit out all those lyrics.
It's so great that I found this version again. I heard it a long time ago and couldn't find it. Thanks, Alexander! The difference on versions is the "drums only" and the "drum cover"
I have no words to say how beautifull and powerfull cover of one of best song's of Cradle Of Filth! What a perfection! I would like to see you in "Queen Of Winter, Throned" Drum Cover, the song is really long, but it was a pleasure if you do a cover of the song. I would like so much to see how good you do it. :)
Great job dude, I love that album, reminds me of the mad cold winter of 1996 with me working outside listening to this. Great kit as well, everything looks really well positioned.
Mate, CONGRATULATIONS for this video!! It's one of the most impressive videos I have seen on RUclips ever since. I'm going to watch it again. Thanks for sharing such quality.
I've been listening to 1994-2000 CoF albums for many years and I've been waiting all this time to see at least one drum cover... Finally, this is it! Great job, man.
nice right on and man you toms sound extremely good!!! most people it sounds like " Browoworoworou" all distorted but your has a good harmony and sound clean! good job on the tuning and microphone!
I've been watching your covers for a couple years now and I just have to say that you are one of the cleanest, most precise drummers I've heard. They should call you The Atomic Clock 'cause you're so accurate. 😂
Hey Alexander,you're the man!! Great cover and sound,simply amazing!! You capture Nicholas Bastard fills pretty good! The forest wispers my name vempire style. Cheers man
Wow, very well done! That song has a lot of changes. You totally nailed it all. Great kit and cymbal set up. I might have to subscribe but only after a few more of your videos first. Killer Job!
As always really really nice job! Good to see Barker getting some coverage by someone talented. How about Black Seeds on Virgin Soil or Nocturnal Supremacy?
Congratulations again Alexander, this is another song that sounds easy at first but it´s really hard to pull on this perfection, this is a great rendition of Barker's drumming
Nick Barker watched this and shed a proud tear!
Michael Michaels is that true?
@@lukeskywalkerjediknight2125 no!
@@balsagoth0077 ok
Shed a proud pound lol
@@Comeswoopfam lol
Perfectly executed. Barker would be proud.

@@Tatenak you mean Nick Barker? He went to play for Dimmu Borgir for some time, then some other bands and lately Brujeria and Lockup.
Damn that was epic! One of the best metal songs of all time
Thank you very much Harald Badlr!
Harald Baldr The riff at 01:38 is brilliant!
Hello Norwegian 😁
The last great COF album.
Brutal song.
It's not easy copying Mr.Barker. Well played sir
Thank you JSMCalder!
dude single-handedly revived my love for CoF. That snare sound so dirtyy
Nailed each and every note and single detail. "Impressive" is an understatement! Well done Sir, well done!

Even when the internet came out Metal Maniacs was still invaluable imo... I was really bummed out when they disappeared.

4:47 te rifaste bro... el mejor drum cover que he visto de esta hermosa rola!
That was amazing! finally someone who covers Mr. Barker in the Golden era of CoF
One of the best black metal songs ever
Nice job bro. Watching these really helps gain a better appreciation for the talent needed to jam this type of music. Barker is a badass.
You really are an excellent drummer my friend.
Thanks a lot Richard Aaron!
Great cover, mate! You were really accurate, that's what I love to hear in a cover, accuracy...
El mejor cover de batería del Cradle en mi corazón, perfecto para acompañar con un fino licor, saludos cordiales desde Zacatecas México 😎🌵🚂🚃🚋🇲🇽🇲🇽
Brutal el brother, ojalá se tirara todo el Cruelty and the beast completo!!
It's good to hear this song with drums that don't sound terrible! The playing on the album is phenomenal but the drum sound is terrible. Your cover is flawless!
Billock Thirteen hoping they sort this with the new release/remaster coming out this year!
Was just about to comment the exact same thing. Really happy to see Alex covering this.
Dan A had no idea about this. That's amazing news as long as long as it's a remaster and not rerecord
arsssis yeah I cannot wait! They are using the original tapes from 20 years ago and taking back to the studio. Check out Dani filth on Instagram he mentions it a couple of times recently think it's nearly completed
Wow! I didn't hear about this until just now! Thanks for sharing!
Great kick pedal skills mate!! another good one covering Nicholas Barker
Thank you Josuë Montherr!
Man, so impressive that you keep things stable when Dani rushes the vocals, he did that alot on the earlier albums trying to spit out all those lyrics.
It's so great that I found this version again. I heard it a long time ago and couldn't find it. Thanks, Alexander! The difference on versions is the "drums only" and the "drum cover"
Damn this was some tight drumming. Nick would be proud
I hope nicholas barker watch the video of Alexander!!! Great video, precise, clean and brutal cover!!!!
One of the best Cof songs!
I have no words to say how beautifull and powerfull cover of one of best song's of Cradle Of Filth! What a perfection! I would like to see you in "Queen Of Winter, Throned" Drum Cover, the song is really long, but it was a pleasure if you do a cover of the song. I would like so much to see how good you do it. :)
Amazing tribute to Nicholas Barker's amazing drumming ! Cheers from France !
My favorite song from "Cruelty." Can't thank you enough for covering this. 💀💀💀
Damn that's amazing. Watched this like 20 times at least now.
Great job dude, I love that album, reminds me of the mad cold winter of 1996 with me working outside listening to this. Great kit as well, everything looks really well positioned.
Again, completely flawless! Looking forward to the next one!
Thank you Tom Owen!
Nice to hear this song with properly recorded drums.
Mate, CONGRATULATIONS for this video!! It's one of the most impressive videos I have seen on RUclips ever since. I'm going to watch it again. Thanks for sharing such quality.

HELL YEAH!!!! Great job!! Love Cradle!!!! Dani can tear it up, never gets old!!! Your stellar dude!!! Like to hear you cover Summer dying fast!!
I've been listening to 1994-2000 CoF albums for many years and I've been waiting all this time to see at least one drum cover... Finally, this is it! Great job, man.
