Very nice. Drums sound great. Reminds me of Queens of the Stone Age in a way...

Cool thanks, im thinking of purchasing a Saturn. Queens?? I personally think it sounds a lil bit like pearl jam

Decent drum sound snare must be heavily dampened?. The band reminds me of local school grunge bands i used to go see in the mid 90s. Not listened to grunge for like a decade. Wait until it becomes hip again and jump on the bandwagon, 80s metal was revived so shouldnt be too long.

80's Metal will never die! Long live the mighty metal!




...Sorry, I had to say that.

The drums sound great man. The only thing I think could be an improvement is the tone of the snare. It sounds a bit chocked, but it doesn't sound bad for the song, though. I've actually been thinking of trading in my DW's for a set of Saturns or Yamaha Maple Custom Absolute. It's a difficult choice!

The snare only had a evans hd genera dry on top and a clear ambassador on the bottom, they used a sm57 mic on top and bottom and i think it came out sounding great!

thanks for the compliments though on the drum sounds and songs!
