Literally one of the tightest sounding drum mixes I’ve ever heard, that was CRISPY
-
In light of Vessel’s outstanding vocals, it can be easy to dismiss the rest of the band. They’re all phenomenally gifted musicians, and I’m glad to be alive at a time when I can hear this music.
-
It's kinda crazy that there's a drummer THIS good...and we have no idea who he is. This guy is incredible.
-
It's unbelievable how his moves are so soft and coordinated and yet the sound is so strong, he seems as if he was directing an orchestra, as if he was just telling the drums to do what he wants
-
Everytime I listen to Sleep Token i'm more and more impressed with how insanely well this man can play. His fill choices are so unique.
-
I want an “offering” from all of the members. Would be cool to see a vocal performance isolated for all their songs on the newer album
-
this is one of the greatest drummers i have ever heard and one of the most flawless mixes. they're on another level. and at this point i want them to keep their anonymity. as long as possible.
-
I've listened to every bit of what this band has to offer. Every track from every album, and all the standouts. Every instrumental release. Every vocal performance from vessel. As many live performances as I can view here. Yet I still can't explain how or why this band effects me on such a spiritual level. Not that I'm complaining. This is, without a doubt, my favorite band. I knew within the first day of listening to their work that they would be. Worship.
-
This dude. It’s almost unfair how good he is.
-
I just love this band. People said "can't wait for alkaline playthrough" and they did it. Probably already recorded it, but still kinda cool.
-
Watching for the 3700th time. Still crispy. Amazing. II - you are a beast. Thank you for sharing with us. It was an honour to see you in Montreal.
-
We need more offerings from II from the new album
-
I laughed out loud like 4 different times, this guy is just something else man
-
Il never understand how drummers can write stuff this complex. This was so sick
-
I seldom comment on anything but this band has me enamored and I'm only 4 days into discovery. Should I say it? I'm gonna say it: Worship 🙏
-
Alkaline is the song that got me into this band. Best AD in my life. Worship.
-
His drumsticks fly like skipping stones across water and ice. Before you realize there has been one impact, it's already fluttered across three other pools.
-
he doesn't have to go so hard, but he does it for us
-
Yup. That fill at 2:08 put me right on my ass. This is absolutely incredible!
-
I love watching a drummer with such an unorthodox style play so effortlessly. Worship 🙌
