[TheLevelerABR]

@noeee33 That would be called style dumbshit every drummer has his own

[noeee33]

@TheLevelerABR Shit gets old. Personally.

[longliveMUIR]

Please for the love of God someone tell me what kind of snare he is using!!!

[ohhaiitsjude]

@longliveMUIR Its just a Truth 8x14 brass snare. Evans Hybrid marching head on top too.

[Mydearestassassin]

This album is way better better than Messengers. They stepped out of the constant fast part, breakdown, fast part breakdown kinda stuff. :sigh: I dig it.

[gaikwadakshay]

Watching this video without audio, I'd be convinced it was playing in fast forward.

[mtsdrummer]

@gaikwadakshay that is so trippy! haha, it fully looks like he's in ff

[ottawadrummer]

That's pretty fn' heavy, what you guys are talking about? And I don't think people listen to ABR strictly for the heaviness, there's plenty of bands that are more brootal...ABR are great song writers and amazing at building-up before the breakdowns.Most bands these days don't understand that a breakdown is a climax point, same with the blast beat for the matter, and song writing always beats brutality. Good song writing is timeless, heaviness is forgettable.

[717Ryan717]

@ottawadrummer Dude your exactly right

[Skatehero9700]

Dude that's so fucking awesome!

[NoWAYJoosee]

One word.....amazing....

[xXGhostReaverXx]

He looks like a robot. He is so friggin good!

[TheAnti1337]

He's progressed so much since messengers. When you look back on messengers, it's really not incredibly complicated.

[omgnowayjustin]

it's a double-edge sword when it comes to bands making new records. On one hand you have people who say "Omg they sound terrible" because they simply have progressed in musical prowess and composition therefore sounding more technical and less breakdown. As for the other side if they choose not to record their progressions and continue making the same repetitive breakdowns with minor variations you get people who say they make the same music with different words. ABR rules, so agree or gtfo plx

[feuerfrei71]

it may be different than their last couple records, but thats called progression. they are maturing. its still intense and is even better live

[XthrownX]

Abr sounds so different now. I dont like it.

[XxAnubis360xX]

Such a beast

[RaverWhiteLight]

k adf adjf adfjeiqwe

Sorry, had to type with my face while I re-attached my arms from trying to air drum this.

[letmeatem3]

NO BEARD?!?!?!? :(

[snackeye12]

dude this is nuts. i dont know why the fuck i dont have this album yet. its different, but deffinatly a better change. this is one of the better times when a band changes their style up a little bit

[leviathan382]

Who says Leveler isn't heavy? Listen to the SONG Leveler and tell me that shit isn't heavy.

[KlRKhammet]

@leviathan382 their previous albums are better. Leveler only has one song that is good, or at least comparable.

"Poor Millionaire"

[ScorpionLP]

@KlRKhammet lol.. you have no clue.. whats with leveler, internal cannon, cutting the ties, salt and lights (!!!!!!!!). .. ?! .. this album is the best album they ever made, dude!

[xJoshiee]

Just saw and met abr at warped tour 2011 and they are so cool! and Matts just soooo beast and an awesome person!!

[ChrisPER15H]

This guy is fucking cool

[PsychoactiveHypnotic]

What's written on his snare? O.o

[JuzziBurnsRed]

@PsychoactiveHypnotic

It's a Bible verse: Matthew 6:33.

[ironsword111]

nothing like messengers was im not really diggin the new sound

[wakefan111]

@ironsword111 thats called being afraid of progression and band maturing. Sure its not as heavy, but just as good? definitely

[15johnramsey15]

@wakefan111 everyone's been saying this album sucks because its not as heavy as like messengers was, but to me, this song is one of the heaviest songs i've ever heard from them, and also one of the most powerful and emotional. as long as the rest of the album is as powerful as this song, i'll be just as satisfied as i was when i first heard their songs like back burner.

[reaperontherun716]

@15johnramsey15 my 1st song was The Seventh Trumpet...and it's all thanks to this member of the band that i fell in love with it...plus it sounded awesome and really heavy

[guitarandblackops]

@wakefan111 you are damn right

[TheRevProdigy777]

@ironsword111 messengers was two albums ago... constellations was different too

[XShad0wF1ashX]

@ironsword111 if bands stayed with the same type of music all the time it would get really old. progression is what makes bands like ABR great!

[JoshuaGrin]

Best ever

[Pablations]

I Knew someone would do this :)

[DominicBoshell]
