Decrepit Birth drummer, YouTuber, and all around sick-as-eff musician Samus Paulicelli (AKA 66Samus) has been making insane drum covers and hilarious videos for a few years now. The dude has covered songs from bands like All That Remains, Slayer, and even Blink 182, all without ever missing a beat. His latest endeavour is a cover of the popular Metallica song “Sad But True”,which is sweet and all, but there’s a catch: it’s twice as fast.
For reference, here’s the original version, released back in 1992 off The Black Album.
Now, any moderate metal fan is probably familiar with this song, but when Samus kicks it into high-gear, it’s difficult to expect what comes next. Either way, the dude kicks some serious ass and the song definitely holds up to being played at 2x speed. Faster and thrashier is usually never a bad thing.
