Dylan Watson
Gojira - Planned Obsolescence - drum cover
updated
What can I say ? It's one of the greatest songs ever created... I've been listening to this album since I was 12 or 13 years old. It was recommended to me by a French teacher in school if I recall correctly. Loved the album the second I started listening to it and my love only grew with years.
As you know I'm a huge fan of Opeth, especially Blackwater Park, Ghost Reveries and Watershed. Those are the albums I listened the most. The more I listen to them the more I realize how genius they are. Also absolutely love the production of this album. It's authentic, unique and organic. If you listen closely to the beginning of this song, every snare hit is different. It just feels so real. Also worth to mention that even though I didn't cover anything from him directly I'm a huge fan of Steven Wilson. And I can really feel his contribution in this album which makes it even better.
And of course nothing but respect to Martin Lopez. He played drums on some of the best songs of all time, with touch, finesse and power. He has been and continues to be a huge inspiration for me as a drummer and I can't wait to cover more of his stuff. He is a brilliant musician.
As often with these Opeth drum covers, a little tear drops at the end. I honestly don't know what it is that I feel at the end of those covers. But playing songs like that is too intense and the emotion has to come out one way or another and it's often tears. This music feels pretty overwhelming to me and when I play those songs it just comes out like that.
I changed a couple things with the sound of my drums and I think this is by far my best sounding one. I'm very very happy with how it sounds. I hope you'll notice it and like it. As always thank you all for watching. I love doing those covers and your support always means a lot to me !

Been listening to From Mars to Sirius for years now and I know a lot of the songs pretty much by heart. I decided to cover this one and I'm so happy I did. The energy this song has is unmatched. I just love how crushing it is. I think its' title reflects the song perfectly. It's really insanely heavy.
As always Mario Duplantier is one of my biggest inspiration. His energy and creativity is forever inspiring to me. I hope you'll like my interpretation of this song. As you can see I broke a stick at the end but had no time to take another one. That's the kind of stuff you have to deal with when you play drums I guess !
I have of playlist of Gojira drum covers already on Youtube but I'd love to know if there's any song that I didn't do yet that you'd like to see. Let me know in the comments !

This is just a video of me practicing the song but the actual multi angle full drum cover will be out this Friday :D
This is my 7th Opeth cover on Youtube and 4th from this album. I know a lot of people follow me because of my covers from that band so I hope you'll all like this one as well. I think this is one of my best covers on here. The sound and video is getting better in my opinion and I hope it shows. I'm also a bit more composed and not moving and goofing around as much as I'm trying to focus more on my sound and making sure every hit has its' place. Still having loads of fun though. Thank you for watching !

First song from the masterpiece album "The fathomless mastery" by Bloodbath. The drums were played by Martin Axenrot who is a massive influence for me as a drummer. This album is just straight up death metal in your face and I love every second of it. I started playing that song a while ago just for fun but decided to take things further and actually cover it. It was a huge challenge because of the speed and constant drumming. It required a lot of endurance despite the song being pretty short. I hope you'll like this cover as much as I enjoyed playing it.

I felt like I was stuck as a drummer. I didn't feel much progress lately. I haven't been practicing the way I used to and I felt like I didn't progress at all.
This solo made me realize that despite this feeling I still grew as a musician. I feel more musical, more confident and I can create with a lot more flow than I used to. I practiced a lot of rudiments and a lot of patterns and I still improvised a lot every time I got behind the kit. I actually feel pretty happy about this solo and that is pretty new for me.
I think the Mario Duplantier influence is pretty clear here :')
I hope you'll enjoy this one as much as I loved playing it.

Decided to do another cover from this album. Absolutely love every track. Craig Reynolds is a beast but also a great song writer. His drum parts are fantastic. I use those covers mainly to practice my linear drumming. I'm pretty terrible at this so there is definitely a need to practice.
Always lots of fun playing Stray from the path. Love this band. Hope you enjoy this cover as much as I did. By the way I used the Moses app to remove the drums from the track. Makes everything clearer in the mix. Hope it doesn't sound too weird !

Bleed from within are back with a new absolute banger of a song. This is one of the toughest covers I've done so far. Very happy I still decided to go the distance with this one. A lot of work, sweat and frustration went into this. Still a very fun song to play once the parts are figured out. There are still a couple things I couldn't comprehend but I managed to improvise a bit here and there to not actually go completely mad.
I had the chance to meet the whole band a couple weeks ago. I played with my band Kassogtha right before their set in a festival called Gränichen. The whole band is incredible on stage and off stage. Had a great time meeting them and chatting with the incredible Ali Richardson who has been a huge inspiration for years now. Fantastic people and fantastic show. Hope I'll get some other chances to share the stage with them !

The album "The Way of All Flesh" is one of the most inspiring album to me when it comes to drumming. Discovered it when I was like 14 or 15 years and it was the first one I've heard from Gojira after seeing the youtube "Live at vieilles charrues".
As most of you know Mario Duplantier is one of my biggest inspiration ever. His creativity, power and play style never ceases to amaze me. He is truly one of the greatest Metal drummers of all time.
I loved to just jam this song and the other day I tried to figure out all the fills at the end just for fun. Turns out there are a lot of very cool linear drum fills in this song. I suck at linear drumming so this was great practice. I'm still pretty bad at it but still wanted to post it as this is the first and only take I did for this song.
If you're new here there are plenty of other Gojira drum covers on my channel.
Hope you'll enjoy this one ! Have a fantastic day !

I hope I'm not the only one here who thinks Megadeth is the best band of the big four but I'll say it anyways :')
I decided also to do a completely new drum mix and I changed a couple things on the video aspect as well and I'm super happy with the result. Still a couple things to change with the snare drum especially but I'm happy with the overall result. I hope you can see some improvements here compared to my previous videos.

I'm a huge Metalocalypse / Dethklok fan. I used to watch Adult Swim so much when I was younger and was so happy there was a death metal show on there. Always lots of fun watching this. Then I started really diving deep into their actual music and I still listen to the band a lot. I'm a big fan of Dethalbum III so I'm really excited about Dethalbum IV.
The drummer of the band is Gene Hoglan who is an absolute legend among Metal drummers. His patterns have inspired me for years and years and this song doesn't disappoint. I learned it and filmed it the same day. It was a tough challenge. Quite a long hard working week end for me between the new Cannibal Corpse and this one. But super happy and super proud I did it. I'm really happy with this performance I have to say. My hands hurt, I'm tired and dehydrated but overall super happy. Hope you'll like this one !

As you can see there's only one camera angle today. I am still trying to blame the camera for not recording but I'm actually pretty sure I just forgot to press the button cause I'm a bit dumb... But that's ok. My whole philosophy with Cannibal Corpse drum covers is to keep it simple and raw.
I had a difficult time making this cover to be honest. Paul's drumming is very very hard to recreate and to cover. I missed plenty of details and there's a lot of small changes I made to make it easier for me. Hope you'll still enjoy this cover despite everything I mentioned. I'm a bit hungover and super tired and been here since 11 am to set up my drums and it's currently 8pm. Long day learning this song but I had a lot of fun !
I got a couple other Cannibal Corpse drum covers on my channel by the way. Hope you all have a good time watching this ! Take care !

I don't know how many versions of this playthrough I made over this year but it's definitely not the first one. I kept postponing the release of this video until eventually I was too unsatisfied with my mix or video. Now that I did it again I really want to release it finally ! Actually very happy with the result.
I had the chance to work for Saor as a session drummer. Recorded their album in 2021 and now I'm also doing some live session drumming for them on certain dates. Very honored to be working with such a well established awesome band and with all the great people involved. It's quite a wonderful adventure :D

Did the learning and filming the same day. Currently practicing all the songs that I have to play live the next couple of months. Very happy and honored to be doing session work for the mighty Saor !
This song is taken from the album Forgotten Paths. Can't wait to play this one live !
My approach with songs like these is different from most of my covers. I'm trying to make everything flow nicely while keeping some improvisation in there. Most of the drum fills are improvised.

#Saor #drumcover
As some of you might know we toured Europe with Avatar and Veil of Maya in March. It was one of the greatest experiences in my life. Everybody on that tour was incredible !
We used to set up my drums while Veil of Maya were soundchecking. You can't imagine how inspiring it was for us to see these amazing musicians perform everyday. Sam is not only a killer drummer but a super nice and humble guy as well. He taught me so much during this tour. It was amazing to learn from him during these 3 weeks.
The band was playing that song everyday during the soundcheck and I started to learn a bit of the accents and structure of the song during the tour. When we got back home I started listening to it on repeat. I decided to try it and almost got the full song in an hour. Only problem was that riff at 1:52. That took me way longer.
I'm actually really happy with this cover. I think it looks and sounds better than anything I did before. As always no edits or whatsoever so definitely kept a couple mistakes and imprecisions here and there. But happy with the overall result. I did this one in one take only !

Hey everyone ! I recorded this video a while ago before going on tour but completely forgot to release it :')
This is the song we used to play at the end of our shows before the release of Devoured by the Oak. An awesome song to end the set. This is from our album "The Last Rain" released in 2019. The ending of the song was a real challenge to play back in the day and recording this playthrough I realized it still is. Hope you'll enjoy this one ! I'd like to do more playthroughs when I find the time. I'm back from touring so expect a couple more videos than the past few weeks.
Also I just reached 1'000'000 total views on my channel. I can't thank you enough. Started recording videos back in 2014. I didn't expect to see this number one day !

Arrived at my studio the other day with this playing on repeat and I just knew my energy for the night had to go into this. Learned it in half an hour and recorded it. Absolutely loved working on this one. Had so much fun. This album is so sick !
This is my second Cannibal Corpse cover. I started listening to the band only recently but I'm loving it so much ! If there are any Cannibal Corpse fans let me know in the comments what songs I should pay closer attention to and maybe one day cover !

SHUT THE F*CK UP
What is there not to like about this song ? After listening to their latest album and discovering the band I found the live video from this song. Once again I was absolutely hooked. I've been listening to it a lot lately. I had no plans of recording a drum cover yesterday but I was listening to this song when I arrived at my practice place and I just went for it. I had so much fun learning this song. It took me about an hour to learn the song. Some parts were really tricky but really clever and fun to play. Also that breakdown at the end drives me nuts and I cracked another cymbal again :'(
I'm so happy about the result of this video. I know a lot of the recent subscribers are here after Craig's reaction to my guillotine cover. I hope this video doesn't disappoint. Also planning to do some other songs from the latest album. So you should expect more Stray From The Path covers :D

Taken from "Dethalbum III"
I've been listening and playing some Dethklok songs since my teenage years. Absolutely love Adult Swim in general and Metalocalypse is amazing. I discovered them through the show but when you look more closely into the line up you realize how sick this band really is. Absolutely fantastic musicians. Dethalbum III is by far my favorite album from the band. This song has a very powerful atmosphere. I played it a couple times for fun and decided to go with a full cover. Honestly there isn't much to learn this song's structure is really easy. But the atmosphere is insane and the double bass is absolutely great. The tom parts are mostly improvised. I couldn't figure out precisely what was going on but just let my stick flow with some kind of flam rudiments and dynamics. I hope you'll like it !
Also thanks to everyone for the amazing response to my last cover !

Taken from the album "The Great Mass". I've been listening to that album since I was a teenager. Septicflesh is one of the few bands of my teenage years that I still listen to very frequently. I think they managed to stay relevant through the years and always provide excellent albums.
I saw them a long time ago in my hometown and twice more after that. Last time was very recent and I finally met one of my drum heroes Krimh. It was incredible to meet him as he is super humble and kind. I told him I would attempt one of the songs on the new album which I'm still planning to do but didn't have time yet to learn one. So I decided to go with this one that I used to play years ago. Had so much fun doing this cover. It was very spontaneous. Just practiced a couple minutes to remember all the parts and learn a couple details and just did one take. I'm very happy with the result. This whole album and band in general is killer. Hope you'll enjoy it :D

Hey everyone ! I finally managed to record a full playthrough of this song. I wanted to do some Devoured By The Oak playthroughs for such a long time but never really took the time to do them. I'm happy I waited as my sound and video improved since the release of the album. I'm very happy with the result.
I kept the video editing and camera angles change as simple as possible. No need for anything fancy on this one. I hope you'll still find the video enjoyable and dynamic in its own way.
I can't express how thankful we are with the overwhelming response this album has received. I hope some of you will discover the band through this playthrough !
Also we just released a new album with my band Kassogtha and I'm very very proud of the result. For all Death and Prog Metal fans out there this is for you !

And of course a link to my band Cân Bardd's bandcamp :

I'm planning on doing more of these for both bands and will also try to get some of the Saor album I recorded last year. I'm gonna be really busy and I hope I'll manage to upload a bit more often !

The song is called Complacency and my band is called Kassogtha. Be sure to check it out !
This tour was a dream and I'm greatful for this beautiful experience ❤️
The venue is called the dome. In London
I used to hate Cannibal Corpse when I was younger. But after discovering the album "Torture" everything changed. I started being obsessed with this band after one listen to that album. I started watching documentaries about them, watched the studio videos they released and I now have nothing but respect and admiration for these musicians.
Cannibal Corpse are extremely talented and their impact on the genre is huge. I now understand why people love them so much. They are absolutely incredible. I highly recommend checking this album. Every song is sick !
The performance on this cover is a bit weird. I didn't really learn the song correctly. I learned it in about 20 minutes and decided to set up my cameras and go for it. Don't get me wrong I listened to the song I don't know how many times before learning it on the drums so that made the process easier and quicker. But I wanted to keep a very natural approach for this cover and play it by feel rather than learning every detail. So you'll definitely hear some mistakes and all but I hope you'll enjoy this one. I had tons of fun playing this !

Been listening to this song so much since I discovered it. I didn't really know Stray from the path before this and I'm blown away by this band. The whole album is absolutely incredible ! Absolutely love Craig Reynolds' content ! If you guys don't know this band and drummer definitely go check them out. The energy is outstanding.
Hope you'll enjoy this one ! I had so much fun doing this. I started learning the intro as a challenge and practiced it a bit these past few days. I found the strength after a long day of drumming to learn the rest of the song. I didn't think at all I'd be filming and recording today but I'm so happy I did. It's 2am as I'm writing this description and have been working since 11:30 on a Sunday, dehydrated and sleep deprived but it was all worth it. I think it's one of my favorite cover I ever did. So much raw energy in this song. It's not perfect but I'm very happy with the overall energy I put into this !

So happy to finally playing this song. I was always quite intimidated by this one because it's long and difficult. There were so many things to learn but I enjoyed every second of it. I'm very happy with the result despite my terrible hair on this video. :') I'll keep them tied up from now on.
I almost covered the entire album Watershed and I'm asking myself if I should do the whole thing. I think I will cover all the remaining tracks. This album is a huge inspiration for me.
Hope you'll like this video. I still need to fix a couple of things in the mixing process but I'm pretty happy right now ! Learning a lot these days !

Hey everyone I'm finally back with a new drum cover. I have to say I'm ultra excited about this one for many reasons. First of all because of the song itself. The Gift of Guilt is an absolutely wonderful song from one of the greatest album of all time in my opinion. The drums alway felt like an unreachable challenge. The drum fills by Mario Duplantier on this one are crazy. Took quite a lot of practice to get there but very happy with how it turned out.
Second of all I changed completely the look and sound of this video. I wanted to do this for a long time but felt quite shy to do it. I started playing around with the lights I had and found this disposition way better. It's a bit less harsh than before, a bit easier on the eyes I would say.
Also I started doing the mixing from scratch and got a lot of help from my friend and bandmate Mortimer Baud. He knows way more about mixing than I do so I'm hoping to learn from him as much as possible and constantly improve the sound of my videos ! Be sure to check out our band Kassogtha linked below. We're very inspired by Gojira so if you like them you should definitely give a listen to our band.
I hope you'll like the new look and sound. I'll try my best to always improve the quality of my content. I'd love to know what you all think so let me know in the comment section ! Take care :D

I had the incredible opportunity to record this album last year. An incredible mix of synthwave and black Metal. The whole album has a high energy intense vibe to it that I absolutely love. This track is no exception.
The part between 0:32 and 1:06 wasn't recorded on drums in the studio. It's programmed electronic drums. I just added this part here to keep the video entertaining.
This was the second single released. An absolute blast to play this. Fast stuff, tons of tom grooves. This is really the kind of fun stuff I love playing.
