Own A Piece Of "Black Metal History"; Drum Legend NICK BARKER's First Ever Axis 'A' Shortboard Drum Pedals Up For Auction
February 20, 2008, 16 years ago
Legendary metal drummer Nick Barker (ex-CRADLE OF FILTH, DIMMU BORGIR, TESTAMENT) is auctioning off his first ever (1997) pair of Axis "Classic" 'A' shortboard drum pedals.
Says Barker, "These pedals are not only in great shape for their age, not to mention the amount of airmiles they've clocked up over the years(USED BUT DEFINATELY NOT ABUSED), but also have a GREAT DEAL of sentimental value too. I'm letting them go to a good home as I am now the proud endorser of Trick Drums' Pro1-V pedals (www.trickdrums.com) and have no need for them anymore.
Here is your chance to not only own a pair of killer (genre defining) pedals, but also own a piece of BLACK METAL HISTORY (kind of)!!!!!!!!
I recorded the following albums with these bad boys and of course did all of the subsequent world touring that followed:
CRADLE OF FILTH - Cruelty And The Beast, Pandaemonium (DVD)
DIMMU BORGIR - Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia, Alive In Torment, Live Misanthropy, World Misanthropy (DVD), Death Cult Armageddon
LOCK UP - Pleasures Pave Sewers, Hate Breeds Suffering, Play Fast Or Die (Live In Japan)
OLD MANS CHILD - In Defiance Of Existence
The pedals come with Axis' own "Sonic Hammer" beaters and can be easily converted to accomodate the Axis Longboards as well as the Axis E-kit trigger system with no problems. For more info please visit www.axispercussion.com ."
