      It's all about the feels. Being a drummer myself I draw alot of inspiration from the melodies in a song as the song is developing and being created. You just learn to have fun with it and you play around with different things and sometimes its something you compose before hand and usually, at lest for me, I have more fun just being creative and jamming it out and seeing what we can come up with. I'm self taught and this guys style is very similar to how I play. I wonder if he is self taught as well. hard to describe but something about his technique that is telling, not in a bad way, just familiar.

    I’m a drummer too and some heavy metal music drumming is hard for me to follow, but this is by far the most sophisticated and recognizable for me as I play Gospel music, and if you listen to some gospel drummers (Marvin Sapp ‘s drummer as an example) the drums sound almost similar in melodically function. They aren’t just a percussive sound in this song, they are the melody of the song as well which is what makes Sleep Token’s chemistry between instruments so prolific.
    Beautiful drumming, pocketed and complicated at the same time.

    Sleep Token is one of the very few bands that has songs with the technicality and rhythm of the way they perform that has touched my soul to the point I start to cry🤷🏽‍♂️ Gods honest truth. I love Sleep Token so very much.

      He’s more than the glue. He’s a defining force and imo genuinely a full half of what makes sleep token so exceptional. They’d be great with an average drummer bc Vessel is so talented, but with ii behind the kit, this band is exceptional and in an untouchable league of their own creation.

    He is phenomenal, I love this guy or whoever “Two” is, this drum offering gets to my musical emotions, is a symphony of rhythms that breaths and resonates, leaving you wanting more, it’s the best melodic drummer after Neil Peart RIP, and he was a Drum God.
