    I love how you don't over fill. You play what sounds good, not what's technical or this or that. I like the style.

      i love how his fills and embellishments are kind of linear - not too fast and gives the song a strange pulsating vibe. v nice

    I think that people forget that sometimes simple is better.
    Northlane was going for something different this album and I'm so pleased with the new sound to compliment the new Vocals/Vocalist.
    Everyone's a critic, but can't play a simple measure in this song alone.
    Brilliant.

    Everything on his set sounds amazing. Nic is just amazing. He's pretty much my favorite. I just wasn't as blown away by his stuff on the new album as I was from their previous music. I wonder if it's because they decided to record the drums last...hmmm

    • @NiallCallumGrant
      @NiallCallumGrant 9 років тому

      Charlie's Drum Corner From what I can tell, he's just using heel-toe on the hi-hat pedal. 5 minutes on your kit and you should have it down!

    Time in constant motion
    Like the shifting desert sands
    Slipping through my hands
    Chasing down the minutes
    That turn into days
    Seconds get shorter
    As years fall away
    Chasing down my dreams
    Under borrowed light
    A mirage in the distance
    Escaping my sight
    Driven to live or driven apart
    What's inside us when we depart
    Driven to live outside of regret
    Time is finite, the clocks are set
    Driven to live or driven apart
    I realize my flame is burning away
    Starward searching I will find my way
    The power of the mind ready to combust
    I will show you fear in a handful of dust
    Combust
    My flame is fleeting
    But I will live and learn
    Rise and burn, Tick and Turn
    Rise and burn
    Time in constant motion
    Like the shifting desert sands
    Slipping through my hands
    Driven to live or driven apart
    What's inside us when we depart
    Driven to live outside of regret
    Time is finite, the clocks are set
    Driven to live or driven apart
    Combust

    I like these videos much more than with vocals. I do not enjoy the new singer and he is awful live, i miss the voice and feel of the original. The music itself though did not diminish whatsoever. I looked at a lot of Northlane vocal covers and auditions bu there was hardly anything to choose from, so I understand why they went with who they did, but he just doesn't do it for me. No negativity towards him but if the album was instrumental I would love it so much more. Texas in July broke up right when they got a new singer...maybe you should hit him up he's good as fuck.
