So I just performed a search for this guy, and found he didn't have his own thread, which I thought was kind of odd considering he has a drummerworld bio page, so i've decided to start one.
The guy's superb! I bought a CD by David Lee Roth recently (The DLR band) and I loved the drums. Really funky and jazzy, but played with a rock edge. It encouraged me to look into his stuff, and I bought a jazz fusion album he played on called the Hideous Sun Demons, and his double kick technique is sublime! Shame he joined Korn, but I guess it pays pretty well.
What do you guys think?

Yup, big fan of his. A little one-sided at times, but he uses what he does very well.

Also, I'm in love with his new Korn kit:

Ray is my fav right now. Not a huge Korn fan but Ray has proven you can hit pretty hard and still play GOOD. I just like his style.

Whoah, that's one hell of a rack! I've noticed he always has a china in that position, is that just his preference or is it a technique?

Well, according to himself, he used to have one china on each side, but broke one of them. Since his style relied on both hands having a china available, he moved the one that wasn't broken to right in front of him.

Yup.

Mind you, this happened when he was a teen, but he's kept the one china set up every since.

Ah, well when I searched his name using the search function that thread didn't come up.

Doesn't matter, it never got more than a few posts, so let's just use this one :-)
