In anticipation of Periphery's album release in March, I've revisited their first album. While listening, I went to their Facebook page and read that their drummer, Matt Halpern, was announced to be in the Meinl Drum Festival in Germany! I hope they video tape some of the festival, because I would love to learn some of the techniques Halpern uses and how he gets such a resonating crack sound out of his snare drum. I also noticed that Hannes Grossmann, of the progressive metal band Obscura, is doing one of the master class instructive demonstrations on progressive metal drumming techniques. If only this Festival was in Philadelphia!
