[@pfg_pedals]

"He looks like a jazz drummer." Most drummers playing extreme metal genres are extremely versatile and well versed in jazz. They often look at playing death an progressive drumming as a technical challenge to push their limits and build their chops. After you have played music like this anything else just flows very effortlessly, especially by working to develop a light touch with a highly finessed style of relaxed playing. The better metal drummers very seldom play with the heavy handed style of decades past. However, check out even Bill Ward of Black Sabbath who was definitely inspired by the likes of Buddy Rich and Bernard Purdy.

[@FK-we1dp]

The mispronunciation of necrophagist is something I never thought I'd hear 😂 Nice vid

[@Fourthirteen82]

I can't even figure out how he decided that was the pronunciation... Very weird

[@SiGhast]

His mispronunciation of it follows the rhythmic pattern of "necropolis" (as a closely-related example). It's wrong, but it _does_ make sense from an English language perspective.

[@Fourthirteen82]

@@SiGhast good point, I hadn't thought of necropolis. I was focusing on how the part "necro," is pronounced in other words like necrophilia/necrophile, necrophobia/necrophobic/necrophobe, etc. and could only compare it that way, so necrophagia, necrophagist, and also because of the "ph" cluster after "necro." So I just incorrectly assumed people would see the same connection and pronounce it "neh-kroh-FAY-jihst." But yeah, I hadn't thought of necropolis.

[@draganov]

Yep, from now on I will pronounce it like him, it's so good. :D

[@SiGhast]

​@@beefquirky7986 I'm not entirely sure "necrophagist" is an actual English word ("necrophage" seems to be the word for it). That however led me to the adjective form necrophagous ("that eats dead or decaying animal flesh", e.g. "a necrophagous animal") -- which aligns with Garrett's pronunciation as well. I checked out an old interview with frontman Muhammed, and he pronounces it "Necro-fahg-ist," arguing its Ancient Latin/Greek roots, but goes on to say that since it's a dead language anyway, any pronunciation is legitimate in his view. Also, Beef Quirky is an _excellent_ name.

Nowadays...we have real technician musicians playing metal. They grew up listening to the old thrash and speed gods, wanting to do what they do. So they bought drums and guitars, and took music classes, many of them went to college and got music degrees. They can not only play fast and loud, they can read music and write songs, not just jam out riffs. They know how music works, not just how it should sound. It's a beautiful time to be listening to metal.
