I think Eric has secretly more love for drums then for guitar playing. You can hear it in his productions, you can hear it how he talks about the drummers he has worked with. This guy has an eye and an ear for drummers. A damn good guitar player but a drummer at heart.
I kinda have that too. And i am not that good of a guitar player but the first thing i tend to listen to is the drums in a song. And then i air drum them. I love playing guitar but drums... Awesome... :p
@TheApplepie131 If rutan played in my schools jazz band, he would be directing it and probably make all the guitar players(including me) look like shit while teaching.
What an awesome dude. I love how he mutes the cymbals at the end like he's all embarrassed. Rutan writes the most dissonant, sinister sounding guitar riffs as well. Finish writing!
Erik looks so interested on blastbeats and really wants to learn

the thing with guitarists is that they can play the drums (not blasting) but they just can't jam, at least majority of the guitarists.

Id say its the other way around, drummers can play guitar. and then most of them just choose to major guitar
