My old band opened up for Origin years ago, and I remember when talking to John for a bit, and he was telling me about the double stroke bass drum pedal technique that he was learning. To me, he was the first drummer to develop that technique. Thanks from all of us death metal drummers who now use that technique to enhance our playing brother. It's awesome to see you have gotten to be a superior force in this genre. 🤘😌

@bultronlagore4932 8 ай бұрын

This is not the peak of metal drumming and to say so shows your ignorance. John is a phenomenal musician and one of my favorite drummers but there are numerous other drummers who are also just as good as John who continue to push the boundaries out further and further in technical drumming/music which means the peak has not been hit yet. Just a few names of drummers that are in the upper echelons of extreme metal drumming along with John are: -Anthony Barone -Lord Marco -Dave McGraw -Stocki from Cytotoxin -The Icelandic Drumming Destroyer from Ophidian I -Chase Westmoreland

comment will be lost, but sharing anyway. Back in 2013, my 3rd son was born. He wasn't a good sleeper and always wake up around 1h30ish and I had to wake up at 4h30 for work. I used to take him with me in my ''pc'' room in the basement, all cuddled in a soft blanket. Sat in my chair with him in my lap, powered up the computer, load up youtube and listen to Saliga while my legs inadvertently rock to that groove from hell. And that put him to sleep in a second. Fun fact, I wasn't a fan of Origin back then but that's when it all click in!

Really, as a progressive metal drummer who has seen tons of crazy sht but rarely anything like this - I'm left speechless, too. I can only speak for myself, a self taught drummer, but I understand the things I play more like a coreography, like a dance around the kit. I usually don't write my parts in advance but they develop from trying stuff with my band mates or drumless demos they recorded. At some point after enough practice, it's just a sequence of things you do, muscle memory kicks in. If you think "Oh yeah, in two bars I need to do that thing", you're not there yet. Sometimes in rehearsal, it's tricky to start in the middle of a part because I don't have the cues from the part before, but other than that, the whole song from front to back is a sequence my body just knows to reproduce. Most of the time at least... And most fckn certainly not on this level.
