"If you could make a supergroup composed of members of Alexisonfire, cave in, and deftones what would the line up be?"
i love these lol
dallas (aof) - vocals / guitar
george (aof) - harsh vox
brodsky (cave in) - guitar only
nate newton (cave in) - bass
abe (deftones) - drums
pretty easy in that aof easily has the best vocals, cave in easily has the best guitars, and deftones easily has the best drums of the three bands

AoF and Deftones are pretty even for drummers imo, I'd be happy with either one

hmm while aof surely has competent drums i think abe's work is consistently much more interesting than anything i've heard in aof's music. honestly don't think about the drums much at all when i listen to aof whereas abe is like the star of the show when i listen to deftones these days
then again, i think deftones has more room for creative drum parts than aof does... so its kinda hard to judge in that regard.
i did do quite a bit of reading on abe at the height of my deftones fandom (and my playing days)... interestingly enough he very much grew up a reggae drummer and didn't start playing rock music until he joined deftones, and i think it very much comes through in his playing. something very stilted about it that i don't hear in many other rock drummers. as someone who was pretty adept to most intermediate rock/metal drumming principles by the time i got into deftones... abe's parts always felt extremely unnatural for me to play

You're probably right re deftones vs aof drumming
He started out playing reggae? Wild, but that definitely helps explain his unique playing style, especially on tracks like Digital Bath

can't seem to find anything online confirming that... but swear i read it in an issue of drum magazine from the white pony era. there was a whole drum transcription of knife party and everything

I don't dislike it, but I won't go out of my way to listen to it. I view it more as the bridge to connect We Are the Sound and We Are the End
