Check out the exclusive drum-cam video premier below of their new song "Finish It". The "Third Revelation" single featuring Joseph Duplantier of Gojira (appearing courtesy of Roadrunner Records) is available now on iTunes

 

An update from Elliot Hoffman of Car bomb: This Last Minute Gojira/Car Bomb tour arose as a result of Randy from L.O.G's incarceration and the cancellation of the Dethlok/LOG/Gojira tour. Gojira Booked small club dates between their existing festival dates in Canada and KnotFest in WI. We were Honored to share the stage with them again on this short run! Check out the list below of my new live setup for these shows.
 
I also have started Micing and mixing my own drums live. This is my first time doing it with great results! I was sending the FOH one stereo feed of all toms and cymbals and a separate mono DI for the kik trigger. This allowed me to have a consistent mix at all the shows and create my own in-ear mix. I also started using a Pearl Buttkicker on the throne to make up for the lack of a drum monitor.

Peter Wildoer and Darkane Present "Clip of The Week #1"
Tuesday, 21 August 2012 10:35

Over the coming months Peter Wildoer and Darkane will release a 'Clip of The Week' each Friday covering whatever comes to their mind. This will lead up to a video diary from the recording of the sixth album that will be available prior to the album release in early-mid 2013.

 
'Clip of the Week #1' released last Friday, features Peter Wildoer setting the levels for his monitoring and just fooling around at the kit as he is preparing to start tracking drums for the album. Two of Peter's favorite things are drumming and eating and this video shows him doing just that.
 

 
Exclusive Video - Casey Hansen and Gaza - This We Celebrate
Tuesday, 14 August 2012 13:36

Gaza's third full-length album, No Absolutes in Human Suffering (Black Market Activities/Deathwish), will be in-stores on August 28th and is available digitally now. You can stream it here. They will be touring extensively with announcements soon to come. 

 
From drummer Casey Hansen: "Music is about so much more than chops, notes on a sheet, or how elaborate your gear is. They are tools, a means to an end. There are a lot of musicians out there that lose sight of what it's all supposed to ultimately be about: FEELING. 
 
My approach (and Gaza's) is to use whatever means necessary to achieve that end. I am an arm to an entity, and luckily for me, I am given a lot to work with. 
 
 
Casey's Gear:
 
  • DW Finish Ply bass drum 20" x 24" and toms 10" x 13" and 16" x16"
  • Ludwig Black Magic snare 6.5" x 14" live and God City Instruments Titanium snare 7" x 13" in the studio
  • Sabian HHX 14" hi-hats (stage bottom, Evolution top), 19" and 20" crashes (usually Sabian AAXplosions, sometimes a Zildjian A Custom in the mix), Zildjian Z Custom Mega Bell Ride (21", 2nd generation)
  • Pearl Eliminator double pedal
  • Evans ST snare head, coated G2's for toms, and EQ3 bass drum head (generally)
  • 2B drumsticks
 
Pardon my brevity, but I hope the music I help create says more than words can. It's also not often I'm provided a pedestal like this. My thanks to Sick Drummer for that."
