Now, you're just straight pick-tipping.
Fixed, thanks! I went over that twice in my mind too. I thought Asnito took him, but that was Brian Baker.

Hey @JojoTheWhale get the f*** up and dance.
Yes, they will be a 4-piece mcnug. Anything more will just be too much with these 4 monsters of sound.So are you finished with the band?
"Noice."
That was my response to @GKJ when he took Sebastien Grainger of Death From Above 1979 a couple days ago. I would have offered some additional praise in my response if not for the fact that I WAS TOO BUSY CLEANING THE SHIT OUT OF MY PANTS. You see, DFA1979 consists of only 2 members; one of which is the massively necessary final piece of the Sexpos' 2nd Supergroup puzzle. So you can imagine my shock and awe when I was scrolling this thread and saw a couple DFA1979 album covers pop up via YouTube links. Suddenly the seat of my pants was wet and heavy.
Lucky for us, he took the wrong guy. At least from our perspective. So long story short, I shit myself for no reason, but it was all worth it to make our fourth and final selection to round out the 2nd Supergroup of the Sexpos.
This gentleman has taken his melodic post-hardcore and dance-punk aesthetic and honed a sound recognizable as entirely his own. Many have tried to copy this sound, but they all fall short. It is entirely unique, and it's all created using only a bass guitar. Just listen to these delicious riffs and tell me they won't fit in perfectly with what Ty, Liz, and Matt will be pumping out. And yes, that sound really is coming from a bass.

@Captain Dave Poulin So ends my band. As much as I would like to make one specific other selection, any more for this particular approach and the sound is going to get weird.
@Asnito Two Minutemen being taken makes me very, very happy. Great job, my friend.

@Asnito Two Minutemen being taken makes me very, very happy. Great job, my friend. Now pick someone else before Cap yells at me.
I didn't realize he was just 27 when he died. Another one. Shit.
@Captain Dave Poulin our 2nd Supergroup will henceforth be known as Decent Indecencies.
To round out my still nameless band, I'm proud to select my favorite drummer today: LUKE HOLLAND
Now Luke primarily drums "loudly". His main vein places him into the hard rock sphere, but he is capable of it all. He incorporates the tastiest fills I've ever heard and settles into some of the most creatively tight grooves you'll ever have the pleasure to hear. Plus his kick is the stuff of legends
Most importantly, for my band, he is EXCELLENT polyrhythmically and as a "percussionist". He regularly incorporates proficient use of stacks, chinas, and other "sound effects" percussion. His clean hi hat work coupled with all of this will assimilate him perfectly into the instrumental nature of this band; he is one of the rare drummers who uses his drums as a musical instrument instead of a metronome.
Click around the related videos for some of his other works, but I'll link this to illustrate what I mean in the paragraph above. If you don't have 5 mins to spare, just skip to the middle 8 at the 2:30 mark and list to the next minute:
@landsbergfan
And this just to demonstrate his entire skillset of creativity and technicality:

Don't blame you. He doesn't even session drum. I know he toured with someone a few years ago and recently drummed for Starset on their most recent record. That's all I know other than 1 song credited to him on streaming platforms and YouTubeI’ve never heard of him, but holy shit.
