Musician/band
Drums!!!: tGENE HOGLAN BIO It’s no small feat for a metal drummer to acquire the nickname The Atomic Clock. Then again, Gene Hoglan is no small drummer. First, he’s huge in stature (albeit rapidly shrinking, as his recent 160 lb. weight loss will attest) – a hulking beast able to split snare heads with a single stroke. Far more significantly, he’s a giant in his field, an innovator known for playing with precision, groove and flair, but who’s just as capable of manipulating the kit with grace and finesse, as well as power and might. Black Sabbath drummer Bill Ward called him, “The new John Bonham, the leading light of a new generation.” Rock and jazz legend Dennis Chambers also praised Hoglan for his creativity and eagerness to play outside of previously established parameters. While Hoglan has always found playing to be its own reward, lately he has enjoyed some major mainstream metal success. He played drums on the latest Testament album, Dark Roots of Earth, which debuted at number 12 on the Billboard albuGene Hoglan Management Reversed Records Rob Shallcross rob@reversedrecords.com Press Contact: www.reversedrecords.com ...view more
