I get the sense a lot of what's on zeitgeist was written around the drum parts. As far as detached drums go on sp records, this record takes the cake. And I'd be willing to concentrate on all the other other musical things going on here if the Drums weren't so fucking high in the mix. If you've got a shit drummer, bury him in th mix! But fuck smashing pumpkins and shit drummer should not be uttered in the same sentence.. Yet here we are.

I'm assuming that this was an error in ripping the stream itself.

Whomever ripped it, try it again.

and yeah, rush is my favorite band

so obviously i've heard good drumming

byrne is a C+ drummer

deal with it

many good albums have bad musicians playing on them

like iha playing on mellon collie

The drumming on Zeitgeist was the only good thing about that album. I'd love to hear what this album could have been like it if had a capable drummer.

What's up with the lack of drums on Pinwheels.

'Oceania' sounds slightly better on the album than live. That's good.

I'm listening right now...and the songs do have more genuine depth/dynamic to them than pretty much anything since SP2. They're not bad and of course I prefer the harder rocking ones. But TURN UP THE GODDAMNED GUITAR. There are some pretty cool chord/riff progressions buried in there. Also - what everyone else has been saying - what the fuck is up with the vocals?! It shouldn't sound like I'm listening to the rest of the album being played outside the recording booth while I'm listening to you record the vocals while inside the booth with you.

What would be awesome is if this album were downloadable from Rock Band (does anyone still play that?). Or maybe have a NIN-style remix Oceania contest. Then we could get the separate tracks and mute Mike. I'll bet someone in the community could even go so far as to record their own, superior, drums (1111phil1111, are you out there?)

Hey Mike, OD already, dude.

Mliw would have been pretty excellent up towards the end with a better moving drum part. Christ he either over plays or under plays.. Never hits the right spot.

Blah blah blah fuck the drums blah blah blah.

One Diamond, One Heart and Pinwheels are both really fucking awful. Even worse than anything from Machina. They almost ruin the album. Quasar and Panopticon are amazing. The intro and guitar solo towards the end of Quasar is too good to be true. Violet Rays and and My Love Is Winter are solid tracks.

what's a real shame here is people seem to not realize a good/horrible, headache inducing drummer when they hear one. hope Jimmy isnt forgotten for being in this band.

To Mikes credit we are all used to a premier fucking kick ass drummer... But thats what made SP special... Having that dynamic lost does take away from a lot of the charm... Which is why billy should have changed the name... But different topic for a different thread/discussed to death etc.
