Yeah I think the tinniness was Paul’s deal…
Liked the drumming more on Animositisomina than Dark Side of the Spoon though.
But yeah…a bit too much treble…the cymbol crashes really drown everything out at some points and are a bit painful.
On a side note, I heard this wierd banging sound coming from the basement of a building in my college today. I followed it, thinking it was some awesome mechanical noise occuring via a generator or something that I could sample for a song.
Instead it was a Korean percussion group…kind of like a drumline but more “tribal” sounding and with tinny wierd metal shit being banged and a gong. It was really cool stuff and made me think of some of the more percussive Einsturzende Nuebauten and early Laibach stuff.
I miss the sound of tribal/ethnic drumlines in industrial compositions. It seems to work well in a wierd way when it’s done properly…
