Born in 1992, Niek has been drumming since he was young. What started in the family band, later grew into performances in various rock cover bands during his high school years. During that period, he further perfected his skills by taking drum lessons.
Since 2012, Niek has been the permanent drummer of the thrash metal band Deathisfaction. Despite a three-year break (2016-2019), the band has grown into an increasingly prominent name within the Dutch metal scene. On the two EPs and their most recent album “Blackened Reign”, Niek shows a tight, no-nonsense drumming style.
He prefers to stay out of the spotlight and let his drumsticks do the talking.
Niek, thank you for setting up the website of the Drumstick Hall of Fame.
