I was skeptical anyone could fill Dirk's shoes when he departed the band, but you have definitely measured up to the role. Keep up the good work, man! I envy your precision and creativity on the kit. Soilwork fans are loving the new music!
I have been following this band for nearly 20 years since I first discovered them. As a lifelong Dirk fan, who only dreams of obtaining even a shred of his talent on drums, I adore Bastian for keeping up and keeping their sound alive. They only get better as the years ago by. My next tat will be the Hammerman on my chest. Thank you Bastian
Bastian is a beast dude, as soon as I heard Dirk was leaving my heart was broken, but as soon as they said Bastian Thusgaard was taking his place... I knew it was all gonna be ok!
Your fills are some of the cleanest out there - I even slowed them down to confirm your mic situation (no triggers, just clean and smooth)! Thank god for Spotify throwing yall my way!
Those ghost notes and ride rudiments had no business hitting that hard at 2:53. This is one of those drum tracks that melt your face off for sure. really hoping to see vultures.
Holding this groove so effortlessly and flawlessly. Doesn't make me forget about Dirk, but definitely makes his departure a lot less painful (oof, this sounds like the man died, sorry for that awful wording). Keep it up Bastian.
I'd say the basic of the verse pattern is kind of a ride-driven variation of the "right hand lead" and goes like: RllRllrRLRllRllr | RllRllrRLRllRllr | ... R (hard) /r (soft) = right on the ride L (hard) /l (soft) = left on the snare + Rides more or less accompanied by the basedrum. This song is really a further development for the Soilwork sound and makes me excited for the album. Bastian does flawless work here.
Rest in Peace David Andersson. Thanks for the great guitar playing and thanks to Bastian to backing his playing so well

Happy that music as tight as this still gets released, and afterwards watch the playthrough directly from the maker

This song is World of Warcraft to me. I must have played this album at least 15 times through Lich King 2.0
Dude! Your playing is the absolute tits every time! Those verse patterns are fantastic. How are the copyto’s?
I'd say the basic of the verse pattern is kind of a ride-driven variation of the "right hand lead" and goes like:
RllRllrRLRllRllr | RllRllrRLRllRllr | ...
R (hard) /r (soft) = right on the ride

Thanks very much. The Czarcie Kopyto's are GREAT! Super responsive and powerful :-)
@@BastianThusgaard I really wanna try some as I hear nothing but great things about them from the drummers I know that have them.
