    I went to high school with Alex, had an art class with him, and wrote a school article on him my sophomore year. His hair was down to his ass back then. He's one of the kindest people. His talent always far surpassed everyone else in my town.I'm really happy he's so successful, it is well deserved.

      Tate Anderson It's true Alex can fill the spot and play Lyle's parts perfectly (sometimes even better). But, to me, Lyle is a much more creative drummer than Alex, and his ideas and aproach are more interesting and "out of the box". Just compare his work with the Faceless and Abhorrent with Alex on Conquering Dystopia, Ordinance and Good Tiger. The fact his Alex popularity came first from playing parts of other drummers, like in this video, and the HAARP Machine ones, where he plays the parts written by Craig Reynolds (who also is extremelly creative).

  • @BrandonBarnwell

    Interesting to have such a symmetrical kit, 2 toms, 2 floor toms, 2 rides, 2 hi hats, 2 splashes (ones a stack, but whatever), 2 crashes & 2 chinas. Must be really cool to play once you get used to it, and must improve your ability a lot to be ambidextrous & play open handed.
    I think if i were to have a kit like that, id want to put two bell chimes on top of the crashes, & a cowbell on each hi-hat stand

    Love the symmetrical setup. Trying to do something similar, but I have my only hi hat directly in front on my snare (a remote hi hat)
    Would like to get a rack Tom on the right side, and place my kick front and center as well. Perhaps I can Jerry rig a remote kick pedal, using a double kick pedal, but sawing down the drive shaft to reduce its length? (Standard drive shaft is too long to place kick drum front and center, I’d need one about half the length)
