Rolf "Rolle" Pilve!

A very good drummer, I've had the pleasure of knowing him for some years and even recorded him a couple of times*.

Hell-fuckin-yeah! He's the dude that played on the Solution .45 album, isn't he?

this kid looks like he's 15!

Good for him. Have pretty much lost interest in Strato anymore ... last few albums were pretty "meh" although that song "Deep Unknown" was really really good. Too bad the rest didn't quite stay on par with it. Maybe if they get fired up again with this new dude playing they might be able to crank out another "Episode" or "Infinity"
