DISCLAIMER: If you are faint of heart, an Arab sympathizer, close minded, judgemental, bleediing heart liberal, "world peace" activist or anybody that takes offense to the expression of controversial things and views deemed "not politically correct," do not watch this video. It's because of idiots like you that the video got pulled off of Youtube a long time ago. This is free expression and contains no message of anti Arab sentiment or racism of any kind.
This video is a music video I was a part of with one of my former bands, "Suicide Nation." (formerly Acts of Aggression) The song is called "The Root of All Evil,"
Lyrically and visually, it is a grim look and expression/view at today's world and events, and how truly messed up they are, mainly in regards to the government and the Iraq war.
We made this video ourselves in fall of 2007.Appreciate the craft and effort put into making this video. Our guitarist, Ken, edited the footage and put it all together.
Suicide Nation was:
Tony Taylor : guitars/vocals
Ken Williams: guitars
Scott P. - bass
Myself: drums
Me performing with one of my former bands, Acts of Aggression, live at Harpos in 2006, when we opened for Sepultura. We went on right before Suicide Silence, who was also on the tour.
This was the last song in our set, called "Bound By Honor."
Video of me playing live at Harpos in 2007, with Acts of Aggression, one of my former bands.
Shot at Harpos in 2007, at the very first Motor City Metal Fest, which was an event organized and created by us (Acts of Aggression), Self Infliction, and Harpos. It remains an annual event to this day.

Guy Gravitt: lead vocals
Tony Taylor: guitars/vocals

AJ Green: guitars
Myself: drums
Me in the Ballz Deluxe studio, warming up on a jam with Chuck (Ballz Deluxe lead guitarist), during pre-production recording sessions for the upcoming new Ballz Deluxe CD.
That's my other drumkit that I'm playing on. (Pearl World Series, birch shells)
Drum solo, live at the Crofoot Ballroom in Pontiac, MI, performing with Ballz Deluxe.
This solo utilizes some of the elements from my other solos such as the crowd participation, and the same medley of excerpts that I do with my guitar player, which has been my routine for drum solos.
The excerpts are as follows, in order
"A New Level" - Pantera
"Tom Sawyer" - Rush
"One" - Metallica
"Raining Blood" - Slayer
Filmed live at the Crofoot Ballroom Dec. 5th, 2008
Just jammin in my room on part of an original tune of mine. Excuse the mistakes.
(Don't mind the bored look in the beginning. It's a long intro and there's supposed to be another overdubbed guitar part over the chugging. To hear the full, recorded versionof what I'm playing, go to www.myspace.com/therichterscale20 and listen to the track called "Instrumental")
Just a snippet of me and Chuck of Ballz Deluxe, doing a little jam/medley during my drum solo at our CD release party on June 7th 2008
Excerpts include "A New Level" by Pantera, "Tom Sawyer" by Rush, "One" by Metallica.
This is just some footage of me in the studio, recording a cd with one of my previous bands "Through The Ashes." back in 2005. What I am playing is an outro/ending of a song. This cd was never finished, nor saw the light of day.
I'm playing a 5 piece Tama Rockstar kit in this video.

This is an old video from 2006. Drum solo at Paychecks Lounge, when I was playing in Xtreme Terror with my dad. Excuse the fuckups, there's one point where I kinda lost it, but nonetheless, I still feel it's worthy enough for viewing.
Enjoy
There will be more to come!!
