    I am laying in bed in the dark, and I have my settings on auto play. This song came on and I have my eyes closed. I thought immediately, "Jesus Christ, I never realized the drums were mixed so crisply and prominently on this track!" 🙄 Dur.
    But still... I find this... more pleasing... than the original...

    This hits such a sweet spot between intensity and groove (fast strokes, yet tasteful pauses), and technicality and emotion (complex without being dry). Rare to see. It's just... art.

    this album is such a masterpiece! it made my life so much better, i remember i was in a car trying to sleep and I listened your album for the first time and then I woke up in the final song and I was WOW.. I MUST BUY THIS. And it was what I did! Now I have your cd blowing up in my car everyday, everytime, such great music to trip everywhere :D And to finish, I must say you're an incredible drummer, your style is so important for your band sounding what it sounds, definitely, for me, you're one of the best drummer in the scene! Please keep up the amazing work and keep inspiring people like me, your music has changed my view of music for life and I play guitar for about 10 years, the only bands that made me think that was Tool and Northlane. Wish you all the best and hope I get a chance to you guys on stage, it would be a total eargasm for me. CHEERS FROM PORTUGAL!

    • @EarthsideBand
      @EarthsideBand  8 років тому +47

      Wow, I'm humbled, Hugo. It's awesome to hear that anything I've done musically has hit someone on such a deep level. That was kind of how I felt when I got into Tool :) Danny Carey is still one of my biggest inspirations behind the kit. Thanks so much for taking the time to engage with our music and connect with us. Hope to play Portugal in the near future!

    That was incredible. I am not a drummer, but an older dude who appreciates the groove you show in your music. This playthrough was fun to watch both from a, "how did he do that?" sense, but also from a passion for your craft angle. You seamlessly blend the sound and style of two of my favorite drummers (Daniel Liljekvist formerly of Katatonia, and Gavin Harrison). I hope that sounds like a compliment because I certainly mean it so. I am so glad that I found you guys here at the end of 2015. I will be a paying customer, fan, and follower of your band for a hopefully long and successful career. Cheers!

    • @EarthsideBand

      Hey Jeff! Sorry for the incredibly slow reply . . . It's awesome that you could pick out some Daniel Liljekvist and Gavin in my playing - Fear of a Blank Planet and Night Is The New Day were huge albums for me particularly as drummer. Compliment accepted :P
      Hope to be playing in front of you shortly!

    Awesome job with the album, guys. I stumbled upon it randomly two days ago. Got one of my mates hooked on the album yesterday, and bought it on iTunes today. Whole album is really solid, and coming from someone who typically doesn't pay much attention to the drums... Ben did a fantastic job adding some special magic to the tracks. Looking forward to seeing what comes next from you.
