[sirgraig]

[dustyowl99]

wow sick track

[ANEaenima]

Nice stuff, gotta love the album! And you are pro, obviously ;)

[stanbicknell]

@Skraepig I haven't transcribed any of my parts as I yet. But it's not a bad idea, if i get some time I may, cheers

[Skraepig]

@stanbicknell Sweet, let me know if you do!

[stanbicknell]

@DaneboJones I've got some more vids on the way soon. I may put an exercise vid together too, cheers

[stanbicknell]

@UKdrum1 Thanks

[Skraepig]

Hey Stan, you wouldn't happen to have this trancsribed would ya? Would really like to learn this stuff.

[DaneboJones]

Any chance you will be doing a video with some of your favorite exercises?

[UKdrum1]

Fantastic. Very groovy, technical, and you have great feel. Keep up the good work!

[stanbicknell]

@Skraepig Thanks man, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

[stanbicknell]

@samiam8959 Thanks mate, I've got vids on the X-ray next! Can't wait...

[Skraepig]

This is amazing! I really like your approach to all the different parts, very creative.

[samiam8959]

Stan really cool! I really like your style of playing, very precise and musical with nice coloring of UFIP cymbals. The Sonor S Classix drums sound great!! I like the multiple camera angles too!

Keep it up!!

[Kat44444]

Awesome stick flip at 3:42...

[stanbicknell]

@adioskaterdude999 Hey mate, cheers. Im glad you enjoy lotus, and thankyou for holding in such high regard as the other bands you mentioned. I will be doing more drum vids from lotus in te next coming weeks, including Celestial Satelites. Keep an eye out. Cheers

[adioskaterdude999]

@stanbicknell, thanks so much for sharing Lotus, I've been jamming it nonstop as of late, probably up there with Corelia and Animals as Leaders newest releases as my favorites of the last few months... Any chance of seeing any other playthroughs? Celestial Satellites or Atom Plants the Psychedelic would be wonderful! Big fan of your playing by the way man, love your strong sense of pocket and "beefy" grooves haha.

[stanbicknell]

@stanbicknell *'kind words'

[stanbicknell]

[underscoreisnotvalid]

[powaowa1]

@underscoreisnotvalid Read the description, and yea P.M him for the link to the FULL ALBUM, I have been listening to it for almost a month now and its one of the greatest albums I have heard in a long time!

[DaneboJones]

@powaowa1 Completely agree, they made an amazing album.

[adioskaterdude999]

@powaowa1 total agreement. As incredible as this song is, multiply it times ten to understand the beauty of "celestial satellites" and "atom plants the psychedelic" haha.
