Blind Guardian's new drummer

[Katana Overlord]

His name is Frederik Ehmke. Anyone know who he is? Or is he new?

He is from the band Schattentantz, a German (what a surprise) folk metal band.

They have some samples of their music here, maybe that will give you an idea of his style.

Wow that sounds pretty good. Wish I understood it though.
