Drummers - Nicholas Barker
Nicholas Howard Barker is an English drummer. He is the
former drummer of the British symphonic black metal band Cradle of
Filth, who went on to play with Norwegian black metal band Dimmu Borgir
as well as Brujeria, Old Man's Child and Lock Up. He excels at fast
double bass drum work and extremely accurate blast beats. One of his
skills that go unnoticed by many are his odd time signatured multi-tom
fills and his dynamic accuracy.
His influences are: Neil Peart (Rush), Gene Hoglan (Dark Angel, Death,
Strapping Young Lad), Clive Burr & Nicko McBrain (Iron Maiden), Dave
Lombardo (Slayer), Pete Sandoval (Morbid Angel).
He played the drums for the Dust album which will be released soon
(actual release date May) and the last Benediction album which will be
released in the summer.
He is currently with the American Thrash Metal band Testament working on
a new studio album.
