I thought I knew how to count until I heard Nic’s drumming... now I trip over my own feet when I try to go for a run listening to Northlane.

[@Hugo_Lee]

Nah you're just not very musical

[@shellb9175]

Hugo Lee that’s true too. Just a fan 🤷‍♂️

[@stev5582]

Hugo Lee Dude, what the fuck are you saying? Nic plays in odd time signatures and patterns, you know that right??

[@911copcar]

@@Hugo_Lee I played drums for 10 years and still can't play something as complex as Nic's parts

[@Hugo_Lee]

@@stev5582 Seeing as Northlane plays in 4/4, just like the majority of other djent bands, I think you mean polyrythmns, not odd time signatures. Very different

[@RomanSwak]

I'm not a drummer, but what Nic taught me the most about drumming, is that what matters more is when you AREN'T drumming, than when you ARE. The space and vibe is entirely up to you to create, if you want it to be very crowded and claustrophobic, or open and ambient, something Northlane excels at. Truly one of the best drummers in the scene.

[@waketp420]

My choice for most influential and talented drummer in the genre. He's on an entirely different level.

[@brandonkain9231]

Hands down...something about the way he plays that I cant get enough of...seen em live last month and was the best show ive ever seen...the energy was like no other concert ive been too...

[@Yesiamerik]

him and Chris Turner are my top 2. both savages

[@juggernautproduktion]

Hmmm. I’d put Matt garstka above for influence. Animals as leaders drumming is way too forward thinking. And if we’re looking at singularity against joy of motion (animals first album with Matt’s drums), joy is far superior in terms of drumming. No offence Nic! We’d watch you all those years ago at yo-yo’s up at frenchs forest, and back then you were on your way. I’ll never discredit you as a drummer, you’re phenomenal!

[@HydraSperati]

"If you put your mind to it, nothing will stop you" *Chronic shoulder injuries has entered the room*

[@EmTheMusic]

He’s been such a massive influence on me in not only playing but in attitude, approach, and love for the craft. Love this.

[@karolkozak64]

that stage costume of his became the number 1 fashion accessory for the rest of the world :_)

[@nothingmore9291]

One of the best drummers in the world and my favorite

[@toasttoasted3492]

So glad we have Nic & Northlane

[@petemichalski487]

Doesn't know he has groove. Get stuffed. He is an absolute beast of groove. He knows it. Legendary drummer. Privileged to have seen him live. Still one of my favs

[@UMCmetal]

[@tygyrlylly8079]

[@CharlieViking95]

He's been a beast since day one. Super unique drummer.

[@jubankta1627]

Wow I love the fact that he’s sharing so much of the mental side of his journey and his approach how he works hard to get where he wants to go is a great way to get the point across!!Much respect for this interview

[@binzianer]

I was at that show! Was absolutely overwhelming (as always!)

[@tingkagol]

The angle on that snare is crazy

[@HoosierHacker]

Had to share this

[@jaket8643]
