  • Hey good people! Here's a "one chance" playthrough I did of the song Illuminate after a full day of recording some session material. A song based on a drum groove I came up with - always fun to play! Let me know your thoughts.
    Recorded in Urban Sound Studios by Thomas Wang.

      Imagine if they actually played something from Bilateral live... Stellar drummer but people forgot Tobias who is also a god-tier drummer. Also, for those of you that don't know, check out In Vain's "Currents" because Baard drums on it and only then will you get why he is truly among the modern greats.

    holy s**t! this is one of the most amazing drumming arrangements I have ever seen in about 30 years of metal, prog and whatever I have been listening so far in my life. I see something inspired by Gavin Harrison, something else by Mario Duplantier...and so on...but with a sort of added value, very impressive and unique style!

Most of the time, the audience can't see anything of the beauty of your so specific and thrilling way of torturing drums !!! Been on several LEPROUS 2018 concerts and each time, same punishment : you are out of range of light, way behind in the dark. Frustrating, that's for sure. It's a shame cos' it's so fascinating to watch... catchy, hypnotic and always surprising. This one is absolute mind blowing. !!!!
