One of the best drummers on the face of this planet. But this makes sense because we all know Holland isnt actually on planet earth.
You know the consequences of this comment right? All the Dutch people are gonna mosh on chvrch bvrner wearing klompen and thereafter block your amplifier ports with pindakaas next time you perform in Amsterdam
matt is in shambles
Broks >>>>>>>> Hollwhat?
Halpern > Broks
Haake > Halpern
Chambers >>>>>>>> Haake
I only just realized that this is actually periphery commenting lol so awesome. Love you guys ❤️
Unparalleled wrists. Insane maturity. Incredible musicality. Stef is among the greatest, if not THE greatest prog-metal drummers of all time.
And my old teacher at the metal school. Learned cool stuff from him. He is a very kind and creative guy
you gotta love how fluid his style is. he is simply amazing. PROPS.
He was my drum teaacher! Great memories man!
NL.carspotterabel does he still teach?
@@cx777o he does at the metalfactory in eindhhoven
He plays with so much finesse and his choice of what he hits is so musical
ok so the role he does starting at 5:09 is fucking amazing props to this dude!!!! metal!!!
Man, i watched this video back then when it came out, but know, watching it a few years later again, after knowing the song a lot better, it actually even kicks more ass!
Damn, Stef is such an awesome Drummer!
I have met him when they performed in Israel, the concert was FUCKING MAD and Stef is a serious bro. He stepped outside to speak to his fans. After we all came back inside, Textures gave us an incredible show, they're insane
I love how he's keeping time with the hihat pretty much all the time. This is brilliant
love the way he plays it !!! his wrists :O
There is so much rhythm in just his drum line!
Damn...the break at 5.09 minutes...
His way of playing is so clever. He easily reach the perfection.
Unreal! can't wait for the new CD!!!
I love this dudes flow. the ending of the song is perfect and I like that "FUCK YEA.. ooowho"
wow this guys really pushing the envelope, both musically and individually in terms of his technicality and style. stef's finding his own niche and IM FUCKIN LOVING THE RIDE MAN
6:09 the kick pattern with the 4/4 beat over the top is sick! where the snare falls in relation to the kicks is epic!
Mind = blown. This was amazing! Plus he seems like a really nice guy.
One of the greatest drummer i always look up to,glad that you guys are back..❤❤❤
By far the best track on their new album, and one of my favourite drummers ever! Sick!
Amazing drummer and amazing band, love them
This band is incredible and the drummer is just........ no words.
This is awesome. He obviously has a high amount of musical finesse and knowledge as well as chops. I loved the 5lets in the beginning.
Great drummer and awesome album!
Im pretty sure all came here like "woo new extreme blastbeats!" and when they heard stefs polyrythms in the beginning their heads exploded. Such a talented guy, deserves more fame for sure!
Can tell he feels great at the end. awsome
that's pure joy man \m/
Stef Broks is a machine!
Love the switching up of the patterns during the part at 4:45 ...i wish these videos existed for some Exivious songs!!!
Great sickdrummer, thanks for uploading this! Stef is one of the most interesting metal drummers I know, his playing is really sophisticated yet still groovy. I met him after a show and he's a great guy, too. Thumbs up :)
love that they used amogh symphony for the intro.
I met him outside before a show here in Albuquerque, coolest man EVER.
this freaking song its incredible, just to make a point. And im not talking about technicality, its about the music!!! CHEERS!!!
Awesome, keep those videos coming!
Great grooves !
It's amazing how some musicians brains work coming up with some of these parts that suit so well to a song.to have a drummer who can keep the time,groove,technical ability and just to keep things interesting while having so much fun doing it.
cant believe those are quintuples in the beginning. this is like the first song with it in it.
They aren't quintuplets, it's just 5/8.
luxypenguin stef is my teacher at rock city, and he said it is al 4/4 but he just do quintuples
dude if my fucking teacher STEF BROKS says it is quintuples, than why the fuck are you s stuborn,
dude you think that stef broks don't know how to play his own song, get the fuck out of here man,
Sikth - Bland Street Bloom has quintuplets \m/
BrownBear96 First song with quintuplets? No way. Not even the first Textures song with quintuplets. Check out 'To Erase a Lifetime' from their 2008 album Silhouettes. Quintuplets all over that intro!
One of a kind drummer
Definitely my new favorite drummer. His weaving in and out of intricate time signatures while laying down a head bobbing groove is amazing!
When i run out of ideas on drums,there's so much to pick up from this inspiring "watch n learn" drummer..
simply amazing!!
loving every single detail!!!!
Damn those guys just make that crazy shit look so effortless. Damn them!!! (-:
that was superb! i just recently discovered this band. i was pretty much hooked the first time i heard them. Stef's drum work blew me away. all that being said, the "fuck yeah!" at the end of this video just sealed the deal for me! Textures = my new addiction
I believe I enjoyed this video very much!
this guy's favorite number must be 5.
took me a few seconds to get the joke, just 5 seconds
Related videos sent me. Waiting for the new album, Silhouettes was great. It had the perfect blend of ambient sound scapes with melody and heavy rhythms.
i'm glad that CZcams recommended this video for me.... i love it !!!
@EvasiveCasey Thank you kind sir. You are full of win.
just found out today that we only have a few more months to see Textures...ever! ACK. considering a ticket to europe...
Loved this!
I love this theme :D
Such tastefull cymbal work.. real musician.
Stef Broks, one of our dutch metal-drummer prides :) Super talented! Together with Dirk Verbeuren (Belgium) one of my favourite Benelux and actually, all modern drummer-related drummer!
I'm appalled by how many people didn't know Textures and Stef Brok.
So awesome.
drawing circles is really good too. its what got me into them. and then silhouettes, damn.
Nice snare sound!
we need more videos of stef broks!
This is pretty phenomenal.
YES! Finally a video that doesn't consist of nothing but blast beats. I'd rather wait a week or 2 for a video of an interesting drummer than have my subscription box full of blast beat shit everyday.
love his style
2024 e eu estou de volta!! essa musica é absurda!!
Excellent performance.
How can a human being dislike this?
He makes it seem so easy!! Im going to go in the corner of my closet in the dark and think of what my eyes and ears have just experienced.
soooo goood!!! can't wait for the new album!
every hit he does is jummy. the hihat stuff ist just stunning. professional but honest, i love it
he is decentat drums! he doesnt us his pedal to much(as i thought), but he ued more of his drums. and that made it more interesting. awesome vid man!
To bad that most of the dutch people think that Cesar Zuiderwijk ( Golden Earring) is the best drummer in The Netherlands . Stef Broks rules The Netherlands .
Intro song : Amogh Symphony - Osiris 1
I finally found the name of this band again!!! THANK YOU!!!
@5:09 that fill was sick!
Just a monster on the drums, so amazing!
This is what I love about Textures, the drumming is always so tasteful and I prefer it to pretty much any other band in the genre. Stef is definitely one of the best drummers in metal today.
Great stuff. Cheers for the vid!
Jup....and thats my drum teacher "two tumbs up"
He's mine too, he just doesn't know it.;)
+Silrian777 He is a teacher in the Netherlands, no joke.
It was this track and Black Horses Stampede that really caught my attention to listen to them more, really excited to see what the next album holds
+CareyPortnoyBeauford They are finishing the new album!
+xBaphometHx WOOHOO I CAN'T WAIT!!! Thanks ~
+CareyPortnoyBeauford WHAT A NAME MAN! 3 GREATS!
Brad Navarro Hell yeah brother!
It's so nice that he's left- handed, cause till this moment I though I was freak playing drums the other way round :) BTW, drumming of Stef is just so good I can't express it using any word...
AHAHAH, F-yeah is right. That was heavy man. Great job and thank you for existing and sharing your art!
@sickdrummerdotcom Oh god thank you guys that will be amazing !
Such a dope song, such a dope band, such a dope drummer, and the new album with the singer from Cilice. CANT FUCKING WAIT! Although, i love the singer from Silhouettes.
This man's work reminds me why I'm still playing the drums.
@DarkPhantomSky awesome! finally my country produces something good!
been waiting a while to see Stef in action! definitely a fan of his work, so creative, such great flow. Would love to see him doing a whole Exivious track... :)
checking this band out right now.
that bell work is something else.
This music. Speaks to me man.
Wow, he's fantastic.
The kick mic is definitely too quiet but I think many drummers will agree when I say that I've been waiting a LONG time to see this!
Yoo!! so fucking melodic so fucking inspiration! Respect bro !!
Stef Broks is a genius!
amazing
@m0eDr3adzz Textures is a new-ish band and even despite their innovativeness and full-on awesomeness they have yet to gain the "legendary" status, I think. If they'll not totally screw up their relations with their fans, they will certainly be considered legends in any context.
Having said that, I wish to note that I'm very happy to have found such a great band.
loving the polyrhythyms.. this guy has fucking talent thank you sickdrummer for introducing me to yet another great band
WOW, WAS THAT ALL ONE TAKE??? Remarkable. Always loved Textures :)
really sick!!!!!
Awesome. He looks heaps zen, like the music is just flowin' through him. And the beat's thick and punchy. Mmmmm yes, very nice.
Menudo máquina. Estupendo. Great!
Excellent
It makes me so happy to see a left handed metal drummer! there arent a lot of us!
same here \m/
ion dissonance. one of the baddest drummers Ive seen in my days
Left handed drummer here thrash metal haha 🤘🏻🤘🏻
STILL the sickest thing I’ve ever fucking seen on drums
i only really like the second half of the song but the drumming was perfect. you'll be an inspiration for me when i will finally play drum haha
