    Any old fart that complains about the lack of good new musicians, clearly isn't looking hard enough or hasn't heard these guys yet. The drumming is fucking phenomenal, Alex is my favorite drummer right now.

      awesome, I'm glad all generations of metalheads can appreciate this band, I think its the best thing in metal to come around for a while. I'm not saying there's nothing else that's come out recently that's good, but its the combination of the members in this band that I've been following for years, Jeff in Nevermore, Alex Webster from Cannibal Corpse, and recently Keith because of his tone and riffing, and Alex Rudinger's drumming is possibly the best of this generation. Put all that together, you get Conquering Dystopia. I'm on the fence whether I'd like to hear vocals or not, only if its the right person with a very dynamic range of vocals.

    • @Pawsey66
      @Pawsey66 10 лет назад +29

      Apples to oranges man. Though they're my two favourite players, it would be an awkward comparison, in my opinion.

    • @Sickdrummermagazine
      @Sickdrummermagazine 10 лет назад +10

      Taylor Pawsey It would be fun as hell to see though!

    • @ThatCheapDrummer
      @ThatCheapDrummer 10 лет назад +4

      Taylor Pawsey As far as the styles they play and come from, I completely agree. However, the actual playing style of being extremely and overly technical definitely shines through in both Rudinger and Garstka.

    • @kyler7590
      @kyler7590 2 года назад

      Is it a cover if he is the drummer from the band though?

  • @BenMc1981
    @BenMc1981 10 лет назад +4

    honestly. this guy is so skilled. people who dislike this are just jealous as hell. Ive been drumming for about 15 years now and i know ill probably never be this good. Evnthough im not really into this genre (more wintersun, ensiferum etc) this is real difficult and you gotta be very creative with the chops and rudiments here. Kudos to you Alex, keep it up brother.

    This song is so gut wrenching and I don't mean in a bad way. It feels like there's some kind of apocalypse going on and humanity literally has no hope and you're just forced to watch every second in agony, and you're disgusted with every second of it. Aside from the brutal scenario, nice song! hah
