I'm so glad I can share this vision with all of you! Just get your hands on the finished monolith on the seventh of March and witness it all yourself!
I know that many True Metal Drummers will argue with me on this one, but...
Cursed be the wicked mind which invented a torturing machine called the double bassdrum-pedal! At one point for instance, the rubber beater of one of the pedals heated so much due to the insane speed I was forcing it to whip, that it started to melt on to the kickpad attached to the bassdrum skin. How's that for massive grinding? At many points I really felt like being bitten in the ankle by Iron Cobras! But in the end of the day I kind of enjoyed their hideous venom in my veins. So maybe I'll still use them again...
All in all...my hands have never felt llke this. Swollen and truly beaten into submission (cheers to Samuli from Profane Omen & End Begins) with a couple of nasty blisters on my fingers (yeah, I know it's just my crappy technique), this moment is without a doubt one of the most all-encompassing drum-related experiences I've ever had.
All the more it makes me think of those millions of people who are forced to work daily in inhuman circumstances, as slaves of the corrupted, or just to get their daily bread...there is something so twisted in the way that wealth is spread on our planet that it makes me sick. I am grateful from cell to spirit of every day I can live in freedom. That is, freedom of choice.
In hoping that someday each and every one of you will be able to rcognize your Inner Being and embrace the personal Truth revealed in this union, I leave ye all in the gentle hands of my Dark Master.
From Unity, through confusion and bitter suffering, towards letting go of struggling and finding balance in harmony between opposites united.
Your humble servant, The Reverend Miguliz Von Zaire
