KRIMH, INSTRU-METALIST SAVANT
Thursday, October 15th, 2009 at 11:30am by Vince NeilsteinI’ve had this YouTube vid up in my browser for days because it’s simply awesome. This kid who goes by the name “Krimh” plays drums, bass and guitar himself on this track, filmed himself playing each part and cut it all together in this nifty video. The playing is top-notch and the composition is excellent — reminds me of an instrumental Textures. It’s kind of got a Sumeriancore feel to it but there’s also an element of black/grimness that pops up here and there. I also really dig the organic drum tones as opposed to the heavily sound-replaced tones that usually dominate this kind of music.
This guy is pretty much what I strived to be when I was in high school, a multi-instrumentalist composer — only I didn’t have a drumkit (or the space for one) and my crappy little Roland 8-track (which did service me quite well) wouldn’t have been capable of properly recording it even if I did. Today’s kids are lucky to have excellent recording software available at their fingertips so cheaply, I tells ya.
Check Krimh out on MySpace if you want more.

this guy is sick.
Dude has some talent. It could have been a couple of minutes shorter but at least there were no horrible vocals to ruin the song.
He’s the new drummer for decapitated!
yeah! I figured they would have mentioned that, tisk tisk.
This dude is really, really good. In before someone says they play better than him and that this stuff is generic.
If he’s not the new drummer for Decapitated, he fucking should be!
He cover of Invisible Control is AWESOME!

He IS the new Decapitated drummer.
Wow, that’s truly impressive.
Holy Shit.
I can’t wait to hear new Decapitated! FUCK YES!
Yes this dude is excellent…and yes he is the new Decapitated drummer….
All hail….
Yeah man he’s got a lot of great covers and original songs too. I think he’s going to release this one and some more originals he did to download for free. It’s some bad ass instrumental shit man.
The Day 69 shit is fuckin beast.
Damn impressive! But more impressive than that is, to this point, no one has yet said how he isn’t talented or they could do that when they’d been playing for 5 months or any other negative bullshit.
How does MetalSucks not know this is the new drummer for Decapitated?
You guys seriously fail.
i’m pretty sure axl post about it when the news broke……
Because it’s on decapitateds website. LilalCFH, you epic fail.
He is definitely one of most metal beings on this planet
It could have been shorter but was still really good.
Holy shit balls, if his cover of Invisible Control wasnt an affirmation enough that he was going to rule in Decapitated, this is a tasty icing on the cake. Very awesome song and structure!
Bad-ass!
Another awesome one man band is bloodsoaked. The guy is killer and hung out on a lot of metal tablature sites when he was still putting his demo together. He’s since gotten signed and even has a video out.

props to Decapitated for getting this guy on drums, but its such a waste of guitar skills too. he should definitely think about joining another band as a guitarist. he also seems rather creative with his music…producing might be a good idea. did he sell his soul or just REALLY REALLY work his ass off?lol
I’m guessing a bit of both. He’s young and he’s from Austria. Chances are instead of playing Xbox or PS all day he played music all day.
