Kimberly Dufrene Troia as much as I love Charles, the band had a way more focused sound when he departed and ended up created a masterpiece. I’d have to disagree. I’d say Charles had the least to do with the heart of what their sound ultimately became. He’s amazing at what he does, don’t get me wrong, but I don’t think what he wanted to do really fit with the sound the rest of the band was trying to achieve.
Charles wasnt on this album. Also their new song has parts that sound like the older 2 albums before this one. Charles is a technical guitar player and hes super good.
2:20 - you never see a "timbale" sound like that used. how creative, this quick moment really got my attention. not to mention his style is unique and aggressive as hell. look forward to seeing more from this dude.
Nicks jazz influence is what makes his drumming man! I was blessed with being in a band with this dude while we were in high school.... i got to watch him blossom into this beautiful drummer you see here. Hes come a long way from rock band drumming.... lol
FINALLY. There are no drum covers of anything from The Color Clear and I've been dying to see something! Proves no one out there can do it like Nick (;
+BenPurdyDrums Dude if i played my cymbals like that, id wreck the fuck out of them. Lol. Not saying he is terrible, i can just imagine him spending loads of money.
finally a drum play-through. the drums in the album honestly take the cake for me. recorded so dam well and sound so thick and tender. need playthroughs for the entire album
had some questions... 1st TAMA SUPERSTAR HYPER-DRIVE??? 2nd kick is 20'' or 18'' ?? 3rd From dw 9002 to Tama Speed Cobras why the change? 4th nick you're drumming feel and passion are awesome
so I went to your guys show in Minneapolis in I think it was november or December one of those two, anyways immediately during the last breakdown of this song I got punched so hard in my fucking nose that my glasses were thrown from my face and completely obliterated. My nose was broken, and I got a concussion. But I don't even give a fuck it was one hell of a show completely worth it 100%%%%
I know this is a drum playthrough but I want to know what kind of effect or pedal is on the guitar or bass that gives it that massively low crunch at 2:16. Because this is the first time I've heard it and it sent me into a spiraling rampage the moment it happened.
Definitely not fake and gay. Saw nick play the whole set live in houston. Totally Fukin murdered that shit. Go to a reflections show !! Good fukin vid nick.
damn this dude shits all over that kid that drummed for you last. glad you guys got someone who actually hits like a man without worrying about silly little stick tricks
John Smithers just how the camera makes it look. Same with the Cuntcrusher play through, using cheap cameras in the dark made that look sped up until you looked closer
Nick is totally no worse than Cam (former drummer who played on their first two albums), maybe even more interesting. This album is a great jam with an awesome experimental touch to it

Nick is what made this album so good in my personal opinion. His drumming really brought out a whole new element to this band.
also charles caswell

same man that really catch me, I noticed it first time I heard this song, this drummer really dig his stuff, and is really creative
+Matt Watson Word, it's such a quick small part but I think it adds a lot of character
igor cavalera from Sepultura used to use this in their songs. check the masterpiece SEPULTURA - TERRITORY

drums were recorded SOOOOOO WELL in this album. So thick and punchy and fun to listen to.
Mix
FINALLY. There are no drum covers of anything from The Color Clear and I've been dying to see something! Proves no one out there can do it like Nick (;
That's what I'm sayin
+ZiionTV I hope no one does it like him, he has poor technique.
+Gordo Smith If it works, it works! He really made this album what this album is with his drum work.
+Gordo Smith What are you talking about? His technique is flawless other than his back.
+BenPurdyDrums Dude if i played my cymbals like that, id wreck the fuck out of them. Lol. Not saying he is terrible, i can just imagine him spending loads of money.
new merch is available now

0:16 reminds me an awful lot about the spider scene from harry potter.
Any influences @Reflecionts? ;)
I thought I was the only one for all these years
That fill from 1:20 to 1:38 is incredible...so many fills, sounds, and blasting in between
SICK
I think 2:20 might be my favorite drum part on this song.
it just brings me back to 2004 grindcore days
Please have nick do Shadow Self! It's one of my favorites from this album
I'll watch this weekly for the rest of my life.
finally a drum play-through. the drums in the album honestly take the cake for me. recorded so dam well and sound so thick and tender. need playthroughs for the entire album
Best drum playthru ever done. Haha. The energy in this is still just so incredibly powerful
0:50 I have never heared such a satisfying Bass drum
This is brilliant.
Shit had me mean muggin and headbanging all the way through!! SPECTACULAR WORK!!!

Love your style. Been looking for a drummer with a sick style. So good 🤘🏻🔥
Very impressive! Want for some more playthrough's!
Music to my ears....
One of the most impressive play thoughts I've seen
The drums are definitely my favourite part of the album. This guy kills. Respect Nick Lona!
I will never understand how the lowest people will always have the upper hand
I have never seen a video so fucking dope in my life. Holy fuck.
Can't believe I missed this before.
It's a pretty wild question, but is there anyone who could tell me the sticking for that insane fill he does at 3:23? Goodness me.
Jazz haha. If you listen to the fills they have alot of jazz feel. Seems as that's close as I can come up with
Sweet baby Jesus, that dude hits hart! I like it!
Now that's drum innovativeness!
That snare drums hits to hard I can feel it.
had some questions... 1st TAMA SUPERSTAR HYPER-DRIVE??? 2nd kick is 20'' or 18'' ?? 3rd From dw 9002 to Tama Speed Cobras why the change? 4th nick you're drumming feel and passion are awesome
Any drums care to take the time to see 4 diffrent types of blast beats he does. And the multiple feet techniques he uses... so gooood...
so awesome
Dude that was fucking awesome!!! So heavy
Really impressive
You guys are paying the hospital bill for breaking my neck haha
Seriously though super solid and innovative playing! Would love to see more
amazing dude. You improve so quickly.

Pure brutality. Pure madness. + excellent drummer

Nick you're a beast
Now *THAT* is filthy! (2:12)
Man this guy loves his floor tom in every song.

Underrated af
This band is the combination of the faceless and rings of saturn and a bit of disfiguring the goddess. That fuckin tone and ambiance, holy shit.
aaaawesome

Probably a darkglass od on the bass mang
digitech whammy octave down
hits the drums like a fucking man. great playthrough man!
Great! Now you need another playthrough for the rest of The Color Clear
This album has some tasty as fuck drum parts, me likey.
if one hit of the bass drum was a step, this man would walk 500 miles and he would walk 500 more
Badass!

That's how you are supposed to write drums!
I will watch this video till I can play ever single part...
Fucking 3:32 dude holy shit that slams. Love this band.
I want that Aero crash badly .
Definitely not fake and gay. Saw nick play the whole set live in houston. Totally Fukin murdered that shit. Go to a reflections show !! Good fukin vid nick.
damn this dude shits all over that kid that drummed for you last. glad you guys got someone who actually hits like a man without worrying about silly little stick tricks
Nick is damn pretty good drummer
Sounds a little like some Aaron Chaparian jams my man🤘
god fucking damn.
is it just me or does it seem like the video is sped up at bit at times? Badass playthrough if it's all real, this dude moves so goddamned fast.
John Smithers just how the camera makes it look. Same with the Cuntcrusher play through, using cheap cameras in the dark made that look sped up until you looked closer
Can anyone tell what China he's using. All I know is that it's Zildjian lmao.
looks to me like a 16 or 18" oriental china
what hi hats
Fuck Yeah !!!
New fav drummer. I was hoping he'd do Limbo because that intro = boner. TCC is a top-notch album to
Nick is totally no worse than Cam (former drummer who played on their first two albums), maybe even more interesting. This album is a great jam with an awesome experimental touch to it
+Juliette Ringsrud Cam wasn't bad at all, but Nick seems way more creative imo.
+Erik Hansen yeah, I actually think the same.
+Juliette Toshinou they are both good drummers, i thought the last was extremely good
in my opinion nick is far more skilled then cam just my opinion though
its a fucking art to memorize all that shit imo. Fucking five outta fukcing five.
You don't play the drums... YOU BEAT THE FUCK OUT OF THEM! 王
but the perfomance is nice
Well fuck me sideways this is beautiful
most aggressive drummer lol
2:28 groove is still wild
