Dimmu Borgir - Gateways - Drum Cover

***Please listen to this cover with headphones or high quality speakers if at all possible. You will be able to hear everything on my kit much better.*** This is easily the most technically demanding song I have ever covered, with crazy fast double kick, blast beats, and nifty little double ride licks. I definitely had a blast playing this song. I've always loved heavy metal that fuses in some symphonic elements to give a really "epic" sound, and Dimmu Borgir is one of the best. The drumming on all of their songs is incredible, and I definitely plan to cover more songs by them in the future. This video also has several firsts for me. I used a much nicer camera, and the new visual quality really speaks for itself. I adjusted the EQ settings on my mixer to get a nicer kick and snare sound, and added two new cymbals to my kit: A 19'' Sabian Paragon China and a 20'' Sabian AAX Metal Ride. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy! ***Please listen to this cover with headphones or high quality speakers if at all possible.
