    All hail the Dirk! His contributions to Devin Townsend Project's Deconstruction is pure insanity!

    Seen him and soilwork live a few times in new orleans. In summer 2005 I traveled abroad for a 10 day trip in Europe and I brought Stabbing the Drama on CD. This was the first Soilwork album featuring Dirk on drums. Their previous drummer was nothing short of incredible, so it took a few listenings for me to appreciate the new sound Dirk and Soilwork came up with. I must have listened to that CD 500 times on that trip. Looking back I can say that's not just in my top 3 soilwork albums, but in my all time metal upper tier list. Amazing production. When I returned home after that trip Hurrican Katrina hit a few weeks later, completely upending my life and setting me on an entirely different course. It was Stabbing the Drama and In Flames' Come Clarity that helped me and many of my friends through that tough rebuilding phase for years after that storm. Music meant more to me then. It feels like in the last 10 years I haven't wanted to listen to music I might enjoy because I'm never doing anything that makes me happy enough to want to bind music to it. I can't even listen to the awesome music I used to listen to for fear of disassociating the memories I have when that music was mine and so many of my friends' soundtrack.

    The “Dirk blast” is named after this guy…
    Also, their replacement after Dirk left is a Danish guy Bastian Thusgaard. He got loads of drum playthrough videos to watch too. A great guy as well!

    Soilwork is probably my favorite metal band and the era with Dirk is their strongest material, imo. I was sad for Soilwork/me when he joined Megadeth, but he's for sure getting paid well in that group so I'm happy for him.

    If anyone on here has not listened to the work that he did with Jeff Loomis guitar player put on a really good set of headphones and listen to it and you will be amazed he's the most progressive drummer and sick beyond explanation when you listen to that you compare him to Dean Casanova back in the day but times 10 do it listen to it reevaluated and then post a comment on it. Thanks enjoy the listing experience you won't regret it

    Really recommend Scarve - Irradiant if you are a Devin Townsend, Soilwork and Meshuggah fan (one of the song has even a solo from F. Thordendal himself :) )

Maybe all I'm getting at is most bands haven't played any shows/tours in almost 2 years you've gotta be in one of the top tier bands (Metallica, Megadeth, Slipknot etc) to realistically have that much time off and not need some extra source of income.

    That's not how they do it. You used your vocal cords. For guttural vocals you use everything in your throat except vocal chords. It's more like the American "R" but much more powerful. It's basically just muscle training. It needs many years to do this correctly without damaging you vocal cords
