Helmet
Tomahawk
Battles

Looks like a Marine and plays like one.

Not crap, zero WF. A joy listen to/watch. Every note played with total commitment.

Last night at Battles he played the last song so hard he had to stop playing because he look like he was going to throw-up.

Part I or II?

Anyone else here got the Betty B-Sides? John's drumming on Pariah is fucking mind blowing. I'll upload onto EAforums.

Fine drummer, and a homeboy to boot. Not Crap.

Great drummer. I find his drumming a little stiff and his beats too sparse sometimes, but he's WAY far from crap.

On the money! Although all the other guys are very talented and as a unit they are a great band, Stanier's playing style really nails it all together.

The gig last night was so fun to watch.

i wish helmet had recorded more with steve.

"in the meantime" is one of the great metal performances in my mind. on that track stainer sounds like he's playing the drums with bigger, louder drums.

"in the meantime" the only track I think... the worst part is Andy Wallace fucking remixed it. Anyone got an Albini mix version of that song? If so please up load onto the EAforums gmail.

Yours etc.
