And for any of you drum nerds out there - I am indeed doing doubles with my feet for all the 16th note double bass between 3:37 and 3:47. I do however still consider myself a 'singles' player, and I invest far more time into my singles. I haven't been able to develop much power with the doubles acoustically which is why I primarily stick to singles. But the doubles do trigger quite well. I only use them when necessary, usually for longer 16th note runs above 245 BPM. On a 'good day' I can hit this with singles, but for consistency in live performance, and in general, the doubles comes in handy. That's why I learned how to do it in the first place. So for anyone claiming that it's 'not legit' or that it's 'fake', bring on the hate! :)
