Dariusz “Daray” Brzozowski, a Polish heavy metal musician who is worldly renowned by his signature drumming for bands such as VADER,MASACHISTAZARATHNEOLITHICINSIDIOUS DISEASE,PYORRHOEAVESANIAHUNTER and BLACK RIVER, will embark on an Italian clinic tour at the end of January. More information is available on the poster below.

In a 2008 interview with Metal-Rules.comDIMMU BORGIR guitaristSilenoz was asked how he would rank Daray against all the other drummers the Norwegian black metal band has worked with over the years. “I would say that he is the most steady and consistent drummer I’ve ever played with, no matter what,” he replied. “He’s extremely reliable, hard-working, determined and he really, really pushes himself, you know? Even if he plays a really killer show and the rest of us have nothing to complain about, he still is not happy. It’s not good enough. That’s the attitude we need, you know? After all, the drummer is the engine in the band and you won’t get anywhere if you only have oil and gas…you need the engine to work too…so… he’s awesome.”
