    I love how you don't over fill. You play what sounds good, not what's technical or this or that. I like the style.

      +Adam Troutman spot on. doesn't over drum. slickest style.

    • @paucceri
      @paucceri Před 9 lety +12

      i love how his fills and embellishments are kind of linear - not too fast and gives the song a strange pulsating vibe. v nice

      +Adam Troutman his parts on discoveries had a fuck ton of fills, watch the corruption play through

    He plays to the song so well that its hard to even notice how bad ass he is when listening to the album. These drums videos are awesome

      @jefflang767 Před 2 lety +3

      Wish he would post one of these for every Northlane song. This is my favorite of his playthroughs and he one of my favs ever. I watch this very regularly haha. The crack of his snare in this does something to me lol

    This drum mix is a lot better than the drum mix on the actual song

    • @RandomlnternetGuy
      @RandomlnternetGuy Před 9 lety +13

      I was about to comment the exact same thing. Drums on the track sound so flat and quiet, kick is inconsistent and the cymbals are inaudible over the bass and vocals.

    Time in constant motion
    Like the shifting desert sands
    Slipping through my hands
    Chasing down the minutes
    That turn into days
    Seconds get shorter
    As years fall away
    Chasing down my dreams
    Under borrowed light
    A mirage in the distance
    Escaping my sight
    Driven to live or driven apart
    What's inside us when we depart
    Driven to live outside of regret
    Time is finite, the clocks are set
    Driven to live or driven apart
    I realize my flame is burning away
    Starward searching I will find my way
    The power of the mind ready to combust
    I will show you fear in a handful of dust
    Combust
    My flame is fleeting
    But I will live and learn
    Rise and burn, Tick and Turn
    Rise and burn
    Time in constant motion
    Like the shifting desert sands
    Slipping through my hands
    Driven to live or driven apart
    What's inside us when we depart
    Driven to live outside of regret
    Time is finite, the clocks are set
    Driven to live or driven apart
    Combust

    Phew, love the cymbal work and how you make all the accents fit so perfectly. Busy drumming doesn’t have to distract from the song’s atmosphere. Big props, my guy! Glad I stumbled here!

  • @ashwamuralidharan7435

    So technically advanced. The amount of control you have over the kit is amazing!

  • @kyleadams2781

    I take creativity over Eric Moore chops any day. A lot of people can drum like Moore, but nobody can drum like Nic. His detail is unmatched.

  • @kyleadams2781

    When you can’t play a drummers writing, because you can’t simply duplicate their parts creativity, you know they the GOAT. seriously.

    nic is one of my favorite drummers, and this, along with his other videos, is an example why. he just makes it seem so easy and plays so clean. keep it up man.

  • @nicodias6685

    2:24 was so confusing, I expected you to swing way faster on the first hit of the time change. I admire your style, it really makes me feel the song. You're a musical genius, and a top inspiration to other drummers👍

    • @whipsy
      @whipsy Před 8 lety

      I got the digital instrumental of the album with the Node VIP tour package, but they reckon each one has been coded somehow as to be able to trace who owns it if it ever leaks

    • @FearTheReaPeRr
      @FearTheReaPeRr Před 8 lety

      Yep.
      The audio equivalent of single pixel tracking.
      Put any track off the instrumental album through their specifically designed software and it'll instantly tell them the email address that specific file was sent too.

    I think that people forget that sometimes simple is better.
    Northlane was going for something different this album and I'm so pleased with the new sound to compliment the new Vocals/Vocalist.
    Everyone's a critic, but can't play a simple measure in this song alone.
    Brilliant.

    Everything on his set sounds amazing. Nic is just amazing. He's pretty much my favorite. I just wasn't as blown away by his stuff on the new album as I was from their previous music. I wonder if it's because they decided to record the drums last...hmmm

    nice playing, dude. I don't play music for a living, but a quick tip in ergonomics... I'd lower those crashes a bit so your hand isn't above your heart. I did that myself and it relieved a lot of pain and unnecessary stress behind the kit.
