Up the Irons! Nicko Mc Brain's (drums only) tracks on Youtube!

All these drum tracks really makes me want to re-think my future mixes. I have always been an 80's metal guy, the amount of reverb on those drums is crazy, never realized they used that much!

He´s 60 years old Wow...this motivates me so much improving my drum skills more and more! It´s never too late having fun on stage and his charisma is evidence of fun and humor. ALTHOUGH Maiden really became a gigantic business.

It´s weird. I think, it´s not as good sounding as his performance on "Powerslave". It´s even sloppy like hell (1:48) WOW and nevertheless it´s working fine in the mix and as one of the most famous singles in Heavy Metal in general.

Yeah that 1:48 spot is indeed very sloppy, but it's barely noticeable in the mix... You should hear Lombardo's kicks in Reign in Blood...

Was actually not as bad as I remembered (although the tempo is very fluctuating and the kicks are not very tight), but with today's levels of productions, it would undoubtedly be edited to shit.

You talkin' to me?
Ahahah! It´s not noticeable in the mix because you cant hear well what kick is doing. I know that because when I programmed the drum track for this cover I could not hear the kick very well in a lot of places. The modern kick it´s all over the place and it´s not dynamic.
This reminds me of that great drum performances of the guy who played on our 2 minutes to midnight cover. What´s his name? Generally I think, this is an awesome mix, Nuno!
Also the bass sound is outstanding!
