    It's ridiculous how every member of this band has so much talent. Think of all the writing, the creative ideas, the strength, the endurance, the practice, etc. that goes into these songs. The instrumentals and vocals are so complex, yet so beautiful. It's hard for me to believe that humans can do this. Definitely my favorite band.

      The endurance alone is decades and decades of conditioning one’s body to just be physically capable of executing this. I love that you included that observation as I’m doubtful of the fact that most people even recognize the physical exertion one must be capable of to play this, and do so with such force and extended movements like he is in this video. The talent of having such complex conceptual ideation and transforming them into the amazing artistic creation like this is alone mind boggling. But that alone isn’t enough - the physical shape one must be in to take that idea and bring it into reality is insane.

      @@Itskahuny well put. One thing I’ve always appreciated about ABR composition is that it’s technically insane (and hard to play), but yet it still sounds amazing. I think a lot of bands get caught up in either one camp or the other; being technical and impressive, or making simplistic music that is listenable. I think ABR balances those aspects of music production perfectly.

I was holding him up near the back of the venue so he could see the band that was currently playing when Matt rounded the corner, greeted him with the most excited smile, and then high fived him just before disappearing into the crowd to get ready for their set. Such an amazingly humble group of guys.

    Ever since I stumbled over these guys almost... almost 20.....20 years ago? Well... Matt became one of my favorite drummers, and no matter how many *goated* drummers I discovered in those years, he still remains there.

    Such a classic without a doubt. This song was my introduction to this band when I first started listening to them and till this day I still very much enjoy this band, his drumming simply everything as a whole.
    Also Matt sure has a way on how to handle China 😂😂 (Lame joke for sure)
    Keep it up ABR!

    This IS the song that changed my taste in my music, and that OPENED my world to a new style of drumming when I was 14 years old. That was almost 14 years ago and this song still gives me chills. Secondly, constellations will forever hold a special place in my soul for all eternity. My kids will be watching me go nuts to this music when I'm pushing 70 LOL. Thank you ABR !

    As a drummer their is always someone in the beginning that always stands out, who you look up too, Some in my generation it was Travis barker, one of my favorites, but it’s always been Matt Greiner that’s been my favorite. August Burns Red was one of my first concerts live and they are one band I always try to see when they are in Utah.
