What's most incredible is Nick Barker actually recorded every song on this album in one take! I remember reading that somewhere when this CD came out. Yea, it's not just Nick's ability or his pioneering style that is most impressive, it's his compositional choices! He really elevated the role of the metal drummer with this CD. Unsatisfied with just keeping time, he enhanced the sound of every other instrument being played while adding tension, dynamics, and accents in all the right places. It changes the music from 2D to 3D.

Excellent cover man! Even with stellar technique this song demands endurance. This album was the soundtrack to my friends and I growing up in high school around 2000-2004. Nick plays a full set, usually without a metronome, and seems unphased by the physical and musical demands. I remember reading that most of the songs he recorded with Dimmu Borgir were done in a single take. Like, what the actual fuck? He's a real living legend and the most important unknown drummer in the world today. I purchased a drum kit and learned to play around 2001 mostly because of Nick Barker and Danny Carey. After a couple years I was pretty good on the skins and I could play some Tool songs. But I could never play any Dimmu songs! Just learning to play a single verse requires practice, patience, and technique that simply isn't available to humans until you unlock your ultimate at the bottom of your skill tree. Nick has inspired so many musicians that today's metal wouldn't be the same without him. Thanks for learning this song and performing it for us! 🤘🎶 The rock n roll hall of fame is patiently waiting to be inducted into the Nick Barker.

Thank you for this cover, It was pure pleasure to watch and listen. My dreamsong is "Dusk and her embrace", which is also played by Nicholas, as you know. Now, after 12 years of learning, playing in different styles with completely different musiciants and bands (even big band), I'm working so hard to be able to play this song, because heavy music was the reason why I began to play drums. Still fighting with my double bass skills and pedal settings, because at one day I can play Nick's fast and short outburst, at other day I barely can move footboard without lag (feels like beater is so heavy, spring is slow and etc.). Also my stamina is below average on this heavy stuff, maybe it's just suboptimal tecnique and bad breath habits, unstable posture.
