[@entheosOFFICIAL]

Craig, thank you so much for the kind words! Sending our love.

[@Artunen]

he was an absolute beast in Animosity and Animals as Leaders. Entheos slaps as well. very creative with weird ideas. I dig it

[@flamesvvilson1450]

+1 Fleshwrought

[@FedericoSala]

don't forget he got drum tracks down for the valley for Whitechapel....absolute talented man

[@into_the_void]

He also played drums on The Minerva Conduct.. its a completely instrumental project, lot of the members based out of Mumbai India.. check it out

[@caseyjazz7256]

I know Garstka is goated but Navene isn't a fuckin slouch and I would put him up against any of the heavy hitters. He chose to leave AAL bc he wanted to write his own shit, so he is on another level musically. Love the vids Craig

[@o-redbeard-o1036]

Both are amazing but Navene grooves way harder IMO

[@gapplebees]

Garstka doesn't write his own parts for AAL on the latest albums?

[@caseyjazz7256]

@@gapplebees ?? of course he does lol Navene writes the music ie. the instruments That was my point.

[@karolkozak64]

thanks for mentioning that. I bet he was not allowed to write as much of his own stuff in AAL since that job is taken :D

[@ArborGeist]

I saw Entheos on tour with Intronaut. It made me feel like a pleeb being in the presence of such rippers like Navene and Danny Walker.

[@XanderVapulaBuehrer]

Navene did a session for The Faceless for the song "Horizon's of Chaos Pt. 1" way back on Akeldama and that holds up to this day as some top class drumming.

[@mattbeauchamp5180]

I can’t tell what it is, but there’s something special about a Navene blast beat.

[@jacksonwhittier3646]

I think its because his snare is tuned higher and he hits a bit harder, but you're right he's got a better blast beat than most metal drummers.

[@i.r.drummer]

The videos of his misses singing for this are amazing. Great voice and she is fucking intense.

[@TheeFinchLynch]

Dark Future is just one of those front-to-back albums. Cant wait for the new stuff.

[@t3hgir]

One of the best shows I ever saw was Entheos live in Worcester MA at the Palladium (upstairs stage) with Evan Brewer. They melted everyone's faces.

[@StuFX]

Would love Navene on the podcast, I saw him with AAL in 2011 in a teeny tiny pub here in the UK and he melted my face it was insane, the fact he plays all this shit with such varying setups as well is amazing.

[@zombiesateourchannel]

Navene is that rare combination of skills, dynamics, feel, pocket, and sheer butchering.

[@tonybruce]

You know english food is shit when you love the food in america 😂

[@DuftCloudly]

10/10 can confirm he’s been this good since the animosity days. Played a few shows/seen a few shows with them back then. Been smashing consistently since forever

[@DuftCloudly]

Also had the pleasure of doing sound for this band at Chain. One of the easiest to work with ever. Ever.

[@Morroh]

Been sleeping on this band, Navene is a savage and this was great.

[@SaltyDogPerformance]

Your reaction videos have introduced me to a lot of bands I have never heard of! Top shelf as usual!

[@OutrunTheSunlight]

Entheos on Audiotree was amazing

[@geeso12771]

Im glad u mentioned u were srill on tour bc i saw u post this and i just saw u live tues night ! I thought to myself how is this guy back home already !?!? Guillotine absolutely crushed live btw, best song of the set. Next time tell the board guy cut some of that reverb off the snare jk! U guys killed it ! Cheers !

[@sicboi80]

Navene is an absolute monster, and Entheos is an incredible band. Highly recommend checking out their catalogue.

[@nickspencer9018]

I'm from norcal and used to love going to animosity shows in the bay back in the day! So fuckin good!

[@tyomkaf]

If I'm not mistaken, he expressed frustration about playing AAL stuff on tour, especially older tracks that had programmed drums made with little to no regard to how a human being could play all the parts. Honestly, I can understand why it can suck even for a pro, I'm sure he had a technical ability to play those songs, but if it doesn't vibe with you, it will eventually start grinding your gears. Also, the absence of a bassist in such context makes everything even worse. I'm glad he's made a positive change for himself and continued making great music, his solo electronic stuff with Generation X cymbal setup was awesome too.

[@seeafish]

It’s insane that despite the programmed drums, he absolutely NAILED Cafo. That is not an easy song to play.

[@tyomkaf]

@@seeafish to me Wave of Babies and Song of Solomon always were even crazier than Cafo. but I guess all of their stuff is not a walk in a park either

[@t3hgir]

@@tyomkaf Wave of Babies is Navene's best Animals performance IMO.

[@Scotty515]

Navene is the fucking GOAT. Huge inspiration for me as a guitarist and a drummer. He also recorded drums on Whitechapel's "The Valley" as well as the latest Machinehead stuff. His electronic music is awesome too.

[@charleschi843]

Navene is just one of those musical prodigies. It is rare to find a musical prodigy where their dominant instrument is the drums though.

[@jbasti227]

Has Stray ever toured with Entheos? If not you guys definitely should someday!

[@oquinnionated852]

I feel like it often goes unappreciated that Navene did Fleshwrought. IMO the best thing he's ever done. Wrote all the guitar and music and had Rudi play the drums. And Jon Davy do vocals. Insane.

[@ChordxClient]

Rüdinger was only going to play the drums “if” they had toured. Navene played on the album.

[@muaddib4329]

the band sounds a lot like animosity because it started out as an animosity reunion of sorts with guitar, bass, and drums and then his wife Chaney on vocals. Now after some member changes its down to just Navene and Chaney.

[@o-redbeard-o1036]

Yup but Navene has always been the primary songwriter in Entheos.

[@krokodilejaw5431]

Navene is a beast. His work in Fleshwrought is insane as well

[@djyeah-nah9781]

I have a suspicion you activated windows years ago and it's a stream overlay Navene slays for days

[@respectfulremastersbymetal8336]

1440p? Freakin' heathen...

[@andrewlareau6075]

Animosity rips

[@nn-NeuralNetwork]

BRO LOOK UP BAARD KOLSTAD

[@13spiders]

Navene is god tier

[@ChaosPootato]

Did you activate Windows?

[@anthonystone1023]

Rastifari puxsy'ole fam

[@a40989d1]

Cymbals aren't very loud

[@JoeDrums1]

I gotta get you to react to my latest drum cover. How can I do this? I think it would be cool if you had submissions from your viewers.

[@lastditch727]

I've met him a few times now. Can't say he's a people person lol. 🤷

[@crunchysnipes4994]

So aren’t a lot of other people lol

[@t3hgir]

I saw him on the street at a venue very early before an Entheos show ~2017, I had a Meshuggah Nothing shirt on. He saw my shirt, we nodded at each other in approval and he gave me the metal horns. I think he was eating a piece of fruit or something. The drum nerd in me thought "let me go and ask him for some cool drum licks/tips" but it passed quickly and I let him enjoy his peace before the show, which they absolutely shredded.
