I am very grateful for the invitation and opportunity to join the Death Metal band "Carnification" and to record the drums for their first studio album in 2012. The band had a very good reputation on the Azorean metal underground, previously releasing a demo called "Embracing Solitude" in cassette format with very good reviews (It couldn't get more "true metal" and underground than that haha!). The songs were very good and powerful and they inspired me to write kick-ass drum parts. The band had a really cool studio and it was a smooth and easy recording process. I moved over to England in the following year, so there weren't many opportunities to play live, but we still managed to play a gig together. The band continued for a while but due to unfortunate events, the album was never released and the band had to end its activity. We all had good times together and the band is still well regarded by the Azorean metal community to this day. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6R08ktynsJI
Amigos, tomai e comei. Aki está um pequeno excerto do que está para vir.
Os Torn Fabriks são uma banda Portuguesa de Thrash metal constituida por mim, pelo Jorge Matos e pelo Ricardo Santos.
É música pesada, old school, feita por pessoal da velha guarda. Caralho, ponto final. Partindo a loiça desde a guerra de 14. Pim catapim (ninguém lê esta merda anyway).
Torn Fabriks marks the union of three old school metalheads, Jorge Matos (Earth Syndicate) from Almada - Portugal, Ricardo Santos (Morbid Death) from São Miguel - Azores, and Gualter Couto (Flight of Eden, Morbid Death) from S. Miguel, Azores.
My Drum kit is a Pearl Session Studio Classic equipped with Jobeky drum triggers and e-cymbals.
My drum module is a Roland TD-27.

That was something special playing at the Azores Monte Verde Festival!
Thank you to everyone who came to see us at 4AM in the morning, you kept us going by giving such a massive support and lots of energy!
After a 24 hour flight delay, lost (then found!) luggage and 4 hours sleep we have made it to the beautiful São Miguel Island in the Azores!
It was a truly special night and we're still processing the response we had from you all in the crowd.
The amount of energy from a full tent is not something we will ever forget.
We want to say a special thank you to Intercut Vídeo Edit for putting this production together and being with us for the whole day.
See you next year? ;)
Thank you so much!

"Mystery of a Blood Red Rose" is a song from the German power metal project Avantasia.
I had my brother Antonio and Dalila visiting the studio. We were messing around and experimenting with mic, camera and light positioning.I am very happy with the audio and video quality we achieved on this one.
Tell me what you think in the comments bellow.
Thanks for watching,
Gualter.

Hailing from the dark streets of Southeast London, Stellify are stamped their presence on the alternative rock scene with their unstoppable, Blues fulled Fuzzy Rocknroll.
Stellify was formed in early 2012 by frontman, James Howlett and guitarist Richard Costello. They called upon the dirty, fuzzy overtones of bassist, Carlos Dittborn, and the thunderously dexterous skills of drummer Gualter Couto to complete the line up. Their obvious connection and musicianship has attracted a loyal following the world-over. There are whole chain of influences making up the Stellify sound from Muddy Waters, Cream and The Rolling Stones to Queens Of the Stone Age, Band Of Skulls and The Black Keys.

This song is phenomenal, an epic masterpiece.

Hello friends! Metallica was one of my favorite bands alongside Iron Maiden in my early teens.
I started learning to play the drums from watching Lars Ulrich, he was my hero when growing up.
Metallica is an American heavy metal band formed in 1981 in Los Angeles by vocalist/guitarist James Hetfield and drummer Lars Ulrich.
Enter Sandman is a song from Metallica's self-titled fifth album, commonly referred to as "The Black Album," which was a massive commercial success and a cultural phenomenon.
This is my tribute to the band.
Recorded at my home studio in Reading, UK.
I want to thank my brother António Pedro for his help in making this cover possible.

This video shows footage from our recording sessions for the "Metamorphic Reaction" EP on the TNT studios in S.Miguel Island.
The recording was done by the recording engineers Zé Preto and Carlins both from the awesome band Hattin Weeler
Morbid Death is a heavy metal band from the Azores formed in 1990.
I had the pleasure of being part of the band between 2008 and 2012.
During those years, we recorded an EP (Metamorphic Reaction) and toured mainland Portugal, playing in venues such as Santiago Alquimista (Lisbon), Metal Point (Porto), and the Steel Warriors Rebellion Metal Fest (Barroselas). We also played concerts regularly and attended various cultural events in the Azores region.
The band members during that period:
Ricardo Santos - Bass and Vocals
Paulo Bettencourt- Guitars
Ruizim - Guitars
Antonio Couto - Samples and additional guitars
Gualter Couto - Drums
I left the band in 2012 with a bag full of great experiences and good memories.
The band achieved cult status in the national underground and it's regarded as one of the greatest bands to ever come from the Azores.
