[@Maniacman2030]

@@jacextreme6432 Legit question, who do you think is the better Vocalist, ZP or Marc? They both have different strengths and I don't think either can sing the songs that don't have their original vocals. Like Marc couldn't do Valley of the Damned through Ultra Beatdown as effectively as ZP, but ZP couldn't do The Power Within onward as well as Marc. ZP has more Power, Marc has more Harmony. Just my opinion on it.

What's the refresh rate of your keyboard? Most gaming mice will raise the refresh rate to 1000Hz, but because some old BIOSes don't understand any keyboards that go beyond the bare minimum standards a lot of keyboards default to 125Hz. If you have a gaming or "enthusiast" keyboard there may be either a physical switch or a software option you can toggle to raise it up to 1000.

In theory the trombone could be a fantastic instrument for metal, except just for slower and more drone-y subgenres. What Author and Punisher realized is being able to go between notes is really important to a heavy sound, so his MIDI controllers work on levers and sliders and spinning knobs instead of buttons, like a trombone. And if I remember right, I saw a Sunn O))) concert online where one of the guys was playing a trombone! Just at like, you know, 10 BPM of course

I'd say the longest pause in this song is about 1.2 seconds max, and that's being really generous. When your mind and body is under the pressure of a large audience like that and getting what I assume to be tons of practice beforehand, I can only imagine the unconscious biological mechanisms activating during this song. Not only is there definitely a level of flight or fight, but the stress hormones being released has to be insane. Every second, every little action can make or break this song. It's at this point that those scarce moments of slightly longer breath are crucial in pulling off what is demonstratively a superhuman feat. The on screen scoring is disengenuous in my opinion, you can only take in so much by watching the pros do their work, but I could simply never put myself in this man's shoes, I can literally see the pain in his eyes. Absolutely amazing performance.
