He was definitely a good drummer. However I'd kill to have Abaddon back in the band. Who knows we might even have a full-on reunion happen with Mantas too, I reckon in todays market for metal they'd do quite well.

Oz -- I'd kill to have Abaddon back too, but I don't foresee that happening any time soon.
