Trop fort en criss !!!! cest hallucinant. Un des meilleurs drummeurs au QUébec qu'on a dans le métal !!!! AVec Patrice Hamelin, Étienne Gallo, Flo Mounier et Yanick Bercier....
its really funny because he looks hilarious when he plays but nobody can make fun of him because all he has to say is "lets see YOU do better" and thats pretty much checkmate for everyone
How does he look hilarious? Like for real. He's beating the shit out of those drums at ridiculous speeds while looking way too composed for what the fuck he's doing. Drunmere that look hilarious are the ones that try to play this while having a full blown retard meltdown in the process. And by the looks of things "drummin4dickintheshadows" that's definitely your group
@TATdrummerJP And the fact that every single beat is so perfectly on time triggers could expose no flaws in his playing. When I hear hiss bass drums, it's not the tone that gets me, it's the unimaginable speed and complexity played with absolute precision that gets me.
Je viens d'argentine pour mes études et c'est dommage que ils DI est désarmé. C'est une de mes favorites bandes... j'ai eu beaucoup d'envies de les voir!!! :(
@sickdrummerdotcom 8 years... 2002-2010... and it was because they "needed to spend more time with family..." :S but fair enough, family should come first... R.I.P DI! we miss you
@TheIceTitan 6 guys one stage 10-12 years...sometimes shit just happens. Alex will be back and even has a new style that allows him to play faster...lol go figure
@drkmonkey7 he's using the roland spd-s, it's very common these days, I'm using it to play skits live, trigger my drums and do bass drops live.. but these things come very expensive, but it sure is worth it
@sickdrummerdotcom Ehh good point. Who's Alex playing with now? And his technique has always astounded me, he seems so tense at times, but he's perfectly comfortable playing that way. Lol I dunno, it'd be interesting to hear him talk about everything with his drumming someday.
That's not why, some of them were having babies and buying houses, and pursuing other careers at the time and it's just that they wanted to focus on that stuff more, it's not because they were fighting or having any differences in music. I seen the post from them on Facebook at the time when they announced the splitting of the band. They posted a link to a blog on MySpace stating this.
I think they should still be at the back but on a podium above the rest of the band, that way we can still see everything he's doing without compromising the view of the guitarists or singers.
This dude is better than a lot of drummers today. He is ahead of his time man. Started jamming to them since 2013
the best drummer above all the extreme scene anywhere scince anytime.. really
And he is also really cute. :3
Check Morgan Sansous.
this is an example of superior drumming in every sense of the word.
One of the few drummers I've seen with splashes above crashes. Baddass
I don't play in obey the brave, it's Alex the singer hehehe
he has the perfect body for an accurate depiction of wolverine. short but jacked to the fuckin bone and he's canadian

Very excited about the reunion tour!! Sure hope you can make it to Denver. I will be there for sure!

amazing drummer
the Messiah has returned...
Sick fast! love the blast beat combined with the splash's. How kick ass! Killer track!
Best Canadian drummer in metal genre, for your eyes.

@BloodyHawk39 ya the cymblas tell the tale. Alex is just crazy fast
Crazy sick!
He is machine!
I'm not really a big Despised Icon fan, but Alex is just... wow.
It's amazing how fast he is....
Je viens d'argentine pour mes études et c'est dommage que ils DI est désarmé. C'est une de mes favorites bandes... j'ai eu beaucoup d'envies de les voir!!! :(
@BloodyHawk39
It may look speed up because is either the framerate or the motion-blur that makes it look weird, but ofcourse, it's all good :)
@sickdrummerdotcom 8 years... 2002-2010...
and it was because they "needed to spend more time with family..." :S but fair enough, family should come first... R.I.P DI! we miss you
best drummer for me, if we're talking about blast, speed and insanity...
My arms hurt just watching him play.
@TheIceTitan It was mainly cause they were starting what they call new chapters in their lives, like new jobs, starting families etc.
@TheIceTitan 6 guys one stage 10-12 years...sometimes shit just happens. Alex will be back and even has a new style that allows him to play faster...lol go figure

Alex goes so hard, damn this rules

Who needs a gym when playing drums like this?
Sometimes, his arms seem sped-up, but the cymbals react normally. So I guess this drummer is pure genius then!
That was awesome,a punch in the face for all the elitists who say deathcore musicians suck ass.
BRIGIDO!

Legends say that Alex can blast at 300bpm with his sideburns
im down with all of his pieces of his set just moving around and swaying and shit.
I got a fever, and the prescription is more blast beats.
you're a monster Alex!!!
@nonhasthisusername they played there last show on december 11 2010
R.I.P DI
@sickdrummerdotcom last time alex used pure arm and wrist. now i notice he uses it as well as some fingers
check ' Obey The Brave' , his new band
I swear to god this man is a robot, or some kind of drum god.
Shame to see such an amazing band end the way it did =(
How can he play that faster with those huge drumsticks omg
do you guys have any information about any new projects or anything alex is doing?
I think they should still be at the back but on a podium above the rest of the band, that way we can still see everything he's doing without compromising the view of the guitarists or singers.
@BloodyHawk39 i think they play every song live with 300 bpm... i know it of MVP and this song
@SinisterSkip lol maybe the fact that theres strobe lights and its pretty obvious strobes fuck cameras up
@HereticsGen fucking true the drum is the FUCKING show
@cultyrath or air ?
Where is he playing now?
0:51 Ride or Tom?
Fucking beast
farewell tour, are they splitting up?
who does he play for now?
is he playing in any band nowadays???
if it is the same, but still I do not think it came out the 2nd time
Why did Despised con break up anyways?
Alex owns
drum machine......
Dude has unreal speed. It looks sped up!@! :) Lolz
***** omg get defensive about it why dont you.
Faster? Is that even possible?
I would give my right arm to be this fast..
Hes gotta be a robot!
