"Zen" as one way to tru to describe it. Going into that zone is the best

It's called the "Zone".

Straight up one of the best drum cams

great is great is great

I think this qualifies as a legendary drum cam by now.

11 years later I feel the same

Still insane in 2022

Na you know you're a good musician when you look like you're climaxing while playing.

or if you know that You can controll your Seizures to perfection peole start thinking you must be a musician and hopefully they buy you a lekker Drumkit :-D Reeespect to Lyle ! and to a good quality drumcamvideo ! thanks ;-)

I came I saw you in 2 piece's

Lol I remember that being in a documentary. Hilarious

Mathijs Tieken yo I remember seeing that video where can I find it

Agree my friend

@@Quake18 Heroin didn't break another good writer. He has been clean for years.

fuckin agree!!!

@@brandonharris9160 He has not been clean for 'years', but yeah he's sober now. Just have to wonder if the opium burned the bridges permanently or not.

autotheism for me.

I mean, it's just standard death metal drumming tbh. Still good though

​@@Existomaluswhatever you say kid...

@@W4rriorOfLight I'm more than likely older than you son. Calm down lol

@@Existomaluswell he’s doing something that no one else is. Say it’s standard but it comes off extraterrestrial if you ask me. Heard a lot of drummers in the years. Joey Jordison, Lech (as blood runs black) are two are my favorites. But I feel like this man is just on another level of technical

@@Existomalus people aren’t brutal enough to understand your comment. I’m here with you pal. And this is coming from someone who is a huggggggge fan of the faceless and Lyle Cooper

Limits? Transdimensional beings have no limits

you should watch the sky is red drum playthrough by leprous

It's like he's using the moeller technique with his entire body.

@@PearlDrummerFTW that's a good description

@@PearlDrummerFTW mad eme spit my coffee out hahaha

@FERMLEE GRASSPIT Can confirm

Its because he’s playing double strokes.

Make the faceless great again. Their new vocalist is weak af. And they hAve been touring without a bassist. Planetary duality without bAss is whack.

Cooper Cannabis541 I agree about having no bass but Julian Kersey, the current vocalist is absolutely amazing and you will never rid me of that opinion. I saw him perform all of PD on the final date of the ten year anniversary and he performed it flawlessly. Dudes a fucking beast and there’s no disputing it

@@coplord2762 he was complete garbage when I saw them this past summer. Cupping the mic, seemed to not know the lyrics, etc. Just bad

@@coplord2762 "there's no disputing it" Here you go. Easy to dispute. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d95opMum39KWn6s.html

Do they even have any other members anymore

Thanks! I probably have like 50 or 60 recordings like this, and I think I mixed like 6 or 7 hundred Faceless shows over the years- :)

TWANSONFOH what are you wating to upload some more brah!

TWANSONFOH whaaatttt upload it now !! Legion of serpent especially :)

+Alex Z yeah that whole cd sounds off now that you mention it, the synth they used in some of the songs you can barely hear it, just sounds like emptyness where something should be.

agree.

Cody Schubert me too man

I am not a watch but I drummer this all the time.

Me too. It's literally a peak musical performance. He is such a master the movements come completely natural and he can focus on 100% on timing and rhythm. It's like watching a master pianist and they're whole body contorts because they ARE the music.

Same

Same here bro I love drum cams with this amount of pure skill and killer sound

***** Ehh... I think Lyle Cooper is better. To each his own though..

+Lennart Bellemann oh really. That bad, huh?

Coming from a drummer, i'll say why Rudinger is better(Lyle is talented, don't get me wrong, but not near Alex's level). The thing with Lyle is, he kinda sloppy, he also throws way too many cymbals into the mix of things. Alex is clean, plays what is meant to be played and has a ridiculous adrenaline. This guy has a so/so adrenaline, he is weak with speed and cleanliness. There were some drum tracks that Alex wrote for The Faceless and Lyle learned them, but he was adding stuff that threw off the groove and feel of the song. Alex has also played multiple genres and incorporated those genres into his playing. The guy has more creativity and all around better playing.

+Kevin Young Alex Rudinger took no part in writing any of the Faceless's music according to the credits on the album. Alex Rudinger had a very short lived career with the faceless and I believe he composed absolutely no original music with The Faceless. Alex learned LYLE's parts. I don't know where you come up with this stuff but it's rather ridiculous.

Lyle Cooper is "weak with cleanliness"?! Are we watching the same video? Are we talking about the same Lyle Cooper? I saw The Faceless live with the Planetary Duality lineup, and it was the cleanest set by any metal band I've ever seen (and I've been to hundreds of shows). Even the members of other bands standing on the side were clearly blown away. Lyle plays the songs damn near perfectly. Also, you say he "adds too many cymbals"... this is a way of embellishing the song, not taking away from the song. Lyle almost plays progressive metal with a jazzy feel, which gives him the edge over the overly-robotic playing of Rudinger in my book.

indeed... it's like every single part of his body have it's own brain... stunning

fury55001337 well that would explain how he could sleep through most of the set.

fury55001337 except his eyes..which seem not to work at all...poor guy

He's good but check Jamie st merat for real alien like octopus drum extremity muscle memory!!!

Sweat in the eyes silly human

It's awesome eh. I watch it at least once a year

@@Benjamin-om3ih I’m once a month lmao! Lyles insane!

Live they are amazing bro no lie.

Yeah I was blown away at how amazing the vocalist is in this video. Seriously talented

Maybe if he was deeper but his highs need to be more accented so he's heard more. That way it hasore impact imop

Or if there was more pronounced words in some parts he would be better.like I'm his cleans or louder idk

Demon Carcass is a monster

hahaha

I think it's his forearms burning

@@monsta2311 I’m with you tbh consistent blasts

Truth

Especially the vocals

@@filasophies4423 Ehhh thats one I gotta disagree with.

@@WoeIsLee Guitar and drumns though...

Live is king.

lol!

Lol I'm just imagining some rick and morty type shit now

Gabe Johnson YOOOO SAME

He fuckin IS the music!! Feelin' it!

The Neowolf literally dude. One of my top favorites. I kinda link this album to Rings of Saturns Lugal Ki En album. They’re pretty different but this song would make such a good origin

@@pazu2934 this is better than lugal ki en, tbh. Maybe not in speed, but in musicianship and technicality, it is, imo. Technicality as in the technical timing, btw.

Fucking right dude almost 7 minutes of pure muscle memory. Only time he opens his eyes is to make angry face 😂

they practice always to stay this tight. the whole band is amazing.

I agree!

Meshuggah stuff

lmfao

+Rylan Schorsch hahahaha nice

Hahahaha hahahaha awebo

definatly one of my top fav. drummers for sure

this is still hilarious three years later haha

This was written by aliens and computers, bro. What do you mean

Ernest Gurule

I agree. Lyle reminds me of the good reasons I listen to the albums still.

Alex is agressive, looks he hit those drums at power lvl 9000 lol

Not really. Alex is more of power and heavy hitter. Lyle is a pure speed drummer so he has to stay relaxed to keep the phase. It is like you are comparing two total different elements. And theres no one better here, Lyle has the style you prefer, basically, Lyle is just your preference that is why.

@@ralpholivemusic6272 you are 100 percent correct

​@@ralpholivemusic6272Except that Lyle is the one who actually wrote, and recorded the drums on this album. He will always play it better. Also, you speak as if Lyle is a light hitter, but that can't be further from the truth. Both _are_ incredible drummers though.

Best comment ever. All the way back to Marcus Pitruzella

Dude is the definition of a sick drummer...

Christians aren't too keen on concentrating on anything is the problem.

AbortedSouls They're busy salivating over the thought of lounging in a gold-plated, jewel-studded paradise while listening to the screams of agony coming from the lake of fire. You know, love-your-neighbor stuff.

i like that! \m/

nah bro its 2024

@@zandiskoulwe out here

At least once a month

Weekly. My favorite faceless album, my favorite tracks.

Lyle still sleeping

+MrTomkat030 but after watching Alex Rudinger... i say the same thing about lyle.

+MrTomkat030 He is probably concentrating

@Justin Rios I wish I was hypotenuse

He's probably tired, jet lagged, no rest and trying to conserve energy for the set

John Arnold he actually has stage fright/anxiety

One of the best comments I’ve read in a while

@@lily13337 ty😂

Possession is as fake as your "God". Your argument is invalid.

Samuel Evans You were so stuck on burning this dude for being christian that you didn't even bother to read his comment.. You are the definition of stupid.

No, I'm the definition of "troll".

***** I was totally like that in 7th grade haha

I'm a christian andmokcbblahblahbgsrehmzofoe

This is old but I came back to this vid today because it's sooooo good. Anyway, you might already know them but the drummers for Fallujah and Ulcerate also slay on another level. Like ascendant plane drumming.

@@chickenslips ulcerate 💪😉

Lyle Cooper

Hard agree probably the sickest riff I’ve heard. So sinisterly good
