Tom Frost (Sacramento, Ca, 1978) is not to be mistaken with Kjetil Haraldstad, the Norwegian metal drummer who names himself Frost as well, or with German drummer Uli Frost. This drummer is from the US.



Tom Frost started playing drums at age eleven. He received lessons from Mat Marucci and Tony Dey. Tom Frost joined Sacramento's alternative metallers Luxt in 2001. In November 2003 he departed. Soon after Frost showed up in Deconstruction, replacing initial drummer Darren Minter. Other past bands Frost played in include The Scott Allen Project, Plex and Seven Years.



His jobs for studios and subs include Code Blue, Marty Cresci, Pro Media Studios, Uljahn, Split Self. He worked as a drum tech for Johnny Rabb, Marco Minneman, Curt Buisquera, Pus Cavern studios and the Velvet Tone studios. Tom Frost:

"I love Steve Vai and all the band members he plays with. I also love Scott Churilla of the Reverend Horton Heat. Any drummer who played with Zappa, Alex Van Halen, Tommy Aldridge, Scott Travis and Josh Freese are sources of musical inspiration as well."

Currently Frost is involved in Deconstruct first and foremost. A DVD is released early in 2005. Frost: "I want to go out on the road with Deconstruct and take over the world." He is also currently working on tracks for Marty Cresci. Music-wise Frost learned a lot in 2003:

"I learn to be a more solid player every year. Its experience and it can’t really be summed up into words. You get it by going out and being a player not by studying."
