Trans-Siberian Symphony
Oblivion Sacrifice
???? Tim Klee – Drummer
Joined: 2022
Born: March 8, 1986 — Jacksonville, Florida, USA
Tim grew up in a coastal Florida town surrounded by boats, storms, and hurricane seasons — giving him a real-world connection to nautical imagery long before he realized pirate metal existed.
He started drumming at age 9, influenced by his father’s collection of classic metal and 80s hard rock. By high school he was known locally for playing unbelievably fast double-kick patterns. After moving through various American metal bands and touring small venues, he ended up in Japan after following a death-metal vocalist he was working with at the time.
Tim’s influences include:
Chris Adler (precision and aggression)
Gene Hoglan (speed + stamina)
Mike Portnoy (creative fills)
Caribbean steel-drum rhythms (from his Florida environment)
He joined Oblivion Sacrifice in 2022, bringing enormous power, endurance, and a battle-ready stage presence. He’s the band’s loudest personality — both on and off the drums — and often hypes the crowd like a second frontman.
