Chris Turner Tracks Heir to the Throne by I Am Abomination

[@TheWitness369]

The closer his ear gets to his shoulder, the better he gets lmao

[@tategraham4196]

He always look really stiff when playing the drums haha

[@mcbassinfaas7285]

Just intense and focused

[@panicproductions2181]

yeah but plays it flawless.

[@Inferamusic]

I think its cause so many bands now use DAW drums, he needs to play every part as loud and crisp as possible, for that sweet sound.

[@Spenjira]

@@tategraham4196 drummers are always products of their woodshedded influences. This guy is a product of the Superior drummer age. Probably had a huge come up when djent was invented and created his own style as a result. Not an insult but also not complement. Buddy rich used to rag on people like him but I think this is one instance that, although he may not be able to play the style or feel that buddy has, he stands alone his own island as well and buddy probably could not manage to play what he plays. THIS is what I am happy about. The metal community finding their drummer paragons in places other than speed and creativity-starved complexity.

Why are there not statues of this man in every drum store in the world? He is, and I MEAN THIS, the greatest drummer to ever live. And to double down, no one will ever surpass him. In 1000 years the world won't produce a more talented drummer. Gonna take some space exploration to match this man.

[@carcher4525]

Spencer from archspire could play this easily and so could David diepold. Chris is a beast but saying greatest to ever live is a far reach

[@MonsieurKonthaar]

Yeah that's a big reach. Chris is a beast, he's up there, sure. But the best? No.

[@skeletalfate333]

I’m sorry to say but that title goes to someone like Vinnie Paul or Joey Jordison. This dude is great don’t get me wrong but I don’t think he’s the greatest drummer to ever live. He’s not doing anything that’s changing the game of drumming or anything. I think he is very underrated but he’s not the greatest drummer to ever live.

[@CantonMasterDrummer]

With the way Chris sits so high, and his cymbals sit down low....huge ups to the engineers dealing with that bleed that has to be completely evident in every mic used. Lol.

​​​@@asztalosmate7395 I play drum too. And in my point of view if I'm using his set up (especially the cymbal) It is hard to crush it because of the narrowness. Other than that I can't see inneficiency of his set-up placement.

[@odious5317]

adrieldrums with the power and speed he is using he has to stay stiff in a lot of the song so he can keep his body steady for control and accuracy. Try playing with your hip flexors and hitting hard to get a certain sound from the kit. It’s difficult.

[@anthonymcguire7979]

not only that didn't he like really hurt his back I'm not sure but I think he did maybe that's why he's so stiff
