    I can also attest to Aric being one of the friendliest musicians I've ever met. I got to see Night Verses at a small venue and was chatting drum stuff with him after the show. He ended up signing and giving me one of his broken sticks from the performance. I'm glad you got to witness his absolute crazy genius!

    I cant remember how I found your channel, but when I did, you had just over a thousand subs at the time. Now you’re up over 40k, and you totally deserve that and more. There’s something very endearing about your videos. A lot of “reactions” by more popular channels really just ham it up as much as possible. Where as you’re completely genuine. You’ll see their kit and make comments about what you’d like to see, what you think they’re going to do, etc. They’ll do something and you’ll be like a kid in a candy store, literally asking for it to happen again. Something will amaze you and instead of just leaving it at “that was dope!” You’ll add to it. Why it’s dope, why you like it rather than just liking it. You’re actually engrossed in what you’re watching, and it’s just really refreshing and entertaining. One of my favorites for sure. Keep up the solid work, my guy.

  • @thelast1uthinkof

    It's always interesting to hear people talk about metal technique from a different perspective with an open mind.
    I once had a teacher (an acoustic artist) in a Bachelors of Songwring and Composition that refused to even acknowledge math metal and honestly it put me off the whole course. Your videos are the opposite of that and I love it. Please impart the jazz knowledge to us metal folk.
    That being said, Id love to hear your thoughts on Clay Aeschliman and Polyphia. I recommend the OD playthrough.

The other one i would recommend to check out is Tobias Schuler from Der Weg Einer Freiheit, in Zeichen OR Ewigkeit (Drumcam live at Summer Breeze 2017), he has incredible stamina, and he does blastbeats like it's the easiest thing in the world.
