  1. Review by Juan Carrizo

    I´ve been working with Ziad for several years now, both in studio and live. He is a brutal drummer both technical and musically speaking. Can´t recommend him enough specially if you are going for some extreme metal stuff \m/

    Ziad and I have worked on multiple studio projects (including full albums), compositions, hired his talent for recording music videos and even as a live session musician. His professional attitude, artistic talent and drums setup is topnotch and absolutely recommended!
