With chops for days and a keen sense of musicality, he&#8217;s able to put forth extremely technical but complementary playing, which makes him a force to be reckoned with, inside and outside of the studio. His huge experience in the world of metal music has landed him gigs with bands such as Aborted, Trigger the Bloodshed, The Soulless, The Order of Apollyon, and Heaven Shall Burn &#8211; and he&#8217;s currently the drummer for Carcass, often regarded as pioneers of the goregrind genre.<\/p>\n<p><iframe class=\"email-form-include-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/weeklyemail\" frameborder=\"none\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dan Wilding discovered that there are five key components in his drumming that he needed to focus on in order to play extreme metal at a proficient level.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":118,"featured_media":52125,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4019,4038],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12389","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-drummers","category-full-lessons"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12389","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/118"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12389"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12389\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":36057,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12389\/revisions\/36057"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52125"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12389"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12389"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.drumeo.com\/beat\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12389"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
