Decrepit Birth’s newest album “Diminishing Between Worlds” was a whirlwind of progressive death metal technicality. Hell, these guys play Cynic riffs while warming up for shows. So how can you pass up guitar or drum lessons from Decrepit Birth drummer and Odious Mortem drummer/guitarist K.C. Howard?

Howard teaches out of Santa Cruz, CA, and besides being a sick technical death metal drummer, he has pretty impressive credentials - he’s been teaching music professionally for over 6 years, has a music degree from San Jose State, and charges a pretty reasonable price for lessons. You can contact him through the Community Music School of Santa Cruz.
