Some of his part are composed a little like Mark Zonder of Fates Warning.
http://www.markzonder.comThe vocalist sounded like some major heaving was about to take place...
forget the lyrical warning..."Lead vocalist might puke on this track"
He went from death metal to American Idol in a few measures.
His kit is very minimal which would be an interesting conversation.
Similar to Virg's playing, I hear a lot of practice patterns...I am hearing
Chafee & Magini influences heavily.
The blunder @ 1:30 off the 2nd vid from original post was hilarious.
The man's got skills...hit every beat with precision and confidence.
His BD sound is HUGE
