    Both Clay's deserve crazy recognition. Everyone in that band is second to none. It's tough to watch. Scottie is slowly getting his due. Maybe the Clay's are next up. They are both unbelievably unique, technical wizards and no one plays like either of them.

      they need to join another band. tim henson is insufferable and his gimmicky technical playing is getting tired imo. i think all 3 of them would flourish creatively without him

      @@kwaddamage8286 Maybe a side project. This last album Scottie seemed to have a lot more influence. Gober had a lot of input. Clay A dropped ego and let Luke Holland play on half of the tracks and they co-wrote together. I think it'll shake out as they continue to grow. It's been a lot about Tim. But I don't think he's unwilling to release the reigns. I get your point though. People will eventually get tired of Tim's approach, so they'll have to keep evolving as they are.

    god damn the hybrid picking sounds so fucking good on the bass and his sense of rhythm and where he can get away with the hybrid triplets makes everything sound 10x better. Homie had to make his own style on the instrument just so he doesn't get buried in the mix and it works really fucking well without sounding like hes overplaying.
