Being a drummer, this reinforces something a lot of us forget. You don't need to bash your kit to get volume or power from it. Look at how casually he strokes his way through the entire piece. And he makes it all look so smooth and easy! I wish I were this finessed.
The sickest wrists in prog-metal drumming. Stef is the real deal. A fully-realized musician. His play-throughs are immensely satisfying to watch. Textures, as a band, is also levels above the rest. Deep compositional sense, not just a group of show-offs. Miss the band immensely, but their incredible output will have to suffice, for now......
In my opinion,Steff will always be one of the best drummers in the world.. I've been following him for many years now and he is well oil machine,who plays with such perfection and passion !! He definitely plays the right way!!
-I'm a fan of both Textures and Stef, but this video needs to be taken down and the A/V sync needs to be fixed. Whoever produced this video did a piss-poor job on quality control.- EDIT: I apologize to Textures, Nuclear Blast, and whomever made this video. My phone needed to be rebooted. I mistakenly used other videos as proof my phone wasn't misbehaving, which it showed with correct A/V sync. Put your pitchforks away people, I like the video!
+Mirza Cengic I've reloaded this 3 times on my phone, and I'll check again at home to be 100% sure. Just listen to the snare at the beginning, it's a good 100ms or more ahead of the video.
+sinborn41214 are you fucking kidding? Ahh this doesn't sound like good quality on my phone :S. What kind of phone do you have? It sounds and looks great on my pc with a shit logitech Z4 sound system.Of course it doesnt look and sound good on your shit mobile phone ;S what kind of internet connection do you have? There are a lot more variables in there than just the video is shit. What country do you live in? Maybe the youtube servers have a shit connection there...
+Unearthlywhales I'm going to assume you must have some reading deficiency. I said the audio/video was not synced up on my phone. Rebooting my phone fixed it. I assumed it was the video because other videos I loaded didn't suffer the desync this one did.

But maybe I want to see a power and aggressiveness through it, bashing the cymbals
There's something for everyone. That being said, in a playthrough setting there is usually more of a focus on the parts than showmanship.
Well, you still can. :)

Glad that the world has Textures again.

i just watched the whole vide with my mouth pretty much wide open - so awesome.
I just found a new cool band to listen to. I love this stuff. This song, New Horizons and Shaping a Single Grain of Sand are all masterpieces.
Met Stef in 2008 at Camden, amazing and really nice guy.
