Over the years, Clint explored a variety of genres, playing in multiple bands that ranged from punk and metalcore to hardcore. His formal education in music production brought him to study under renowned drummers Helge Zumdick, Christin Neddens and Uwe Breunig, focusing on his main instrument, the drums. Since 2022, Clint has been a substitute drummer for the German punk band ZSK, while also staying active with his own hardcore punk band, Snakes in the Pit.
