Just what cymbal is Phil Selway's right hand beating like it owes him money?

Are you asking about his ride? I know he used the 18" Remix Breakbeat ride around this same time period.

Looks like it's the same cymbal.

Excellent! Many thanks. Ironically it's an 18, the size I limit myself to . . . BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Aren't those discontinued now? Replaced by another similar cymbal called the Uptown. I'd love to have one if the price ever comes down.
BTW, I love the front man and his depiction of someone who just grabbed hold of a 220 volt power line.

Discontinued is fine by me as I haven’t purchased a new cymbal since 2015.

edit - looks like the breakbeat is about 170ish used and the uptown around 270 new.

I had an 18" flat ride as my primary for many years - now I have a 23" non-flat ride....it's like riding a wave as opposite to skating on ice like the 18" flat ride was.

That's actually a really nice sounding cymbal.

I think it's supposed to fill those shoes....if I remember right - the remix was a whole line with hats and a small crash too for replicating electronics. I could have sworn I remember an ad with Zach Danziger like in front of a computer - but that was a long time ago.

I bet the whole set sounded awesome.

Ahhhh - I found a super small version.

1998 - wow they were really far ahead of their time - I bet this set would fly off the shelves now paired one of those smaller martini kits.

I remember this ad. The thing that stuck out to me the most at the time was 12" hats. I just couldn't imagine playing hats that small. My imagination has grown since then.
