      @101327 it seems like DTP basically disbanded, and RVP also has his own band he's been putting together and focusing on. I love Ryan, hes awesome and I've been listening to him and Devin play together since 2006. But after so many years I'm happy to see a fresh change for Devin's music and the musicians he works with. If it's just for studio work that's cool, but a new touring line up would be fun to see in my opinion.

      Isn't Decrepit Birth's current drummer Gabe Seeber though?

      @@MadnessOpus There could be 2 bands called Decrepit Birth? Not entirely sure. Last I knew of Samus was Decrepit Birth's drummer

      Pretty sure Samus does drums in studio whereas Gabe plays live.

    I would shit myself if I met Morgen Agren. When Thomas Haake calls someone a great and influential drummer, that carries some weight. Long live Sol Niger Within. Still one of the sickest and most influential metal albums of all time.

    Do you have the whole video of Morgan playing along with The Black Page? I'd love to see that! He's playing it so subtle, but with great precision.

    At first I was just thinking, are you kidding me?! Devin's already finished drums on a new project?! How are there enough hours in a day to accommodate the amount of work this man puts out? Once the shock wore off, the glorious anticipation set in, the kind I only get with artists like Devin, when I know I can expect the unexpected and that the music will meet or, more than likely, exceed my expectations. And then...I...I couldn't believe my eyes... I thought... this is impossible....this is the last thing i expected....it can't be real...have I died and actually gone to heaven?...is that...Is that Mike Keneally? The MIKE KENEALLY?!? In the studio with DEVIN?!? Two of the greatest, quirkiest, most creatively brilliant musical minds in all of North America...together...in a studio?!? That might be the best idea I've ever heard. Whoever came up with it and made it happen is a genius, or at least very smart. I'm assuming this is Devin's baby and I know it'll be different and amazing, but the thought of what Keneally could do with a vocalist with Devin's power, range and emotive scope is just...it's too much to bear. I'm not even sure it would be legal in most countries.
