If you don't get the point to this cymbal then you are obviously very new to drumming and music in general. This may be useless to many people, but for others it may be exactly the sound they need for the style of music they play. You can get some VERY unique sounds out of a spiral cymbal if you know how to use them. Watch "Spiral Trash" posted by ZildjianCompany for a video that is awesome and does the cymbal justice.
one day a zildjian guy was bored so he said "hey im going to cut a cymbal into a spiral" and another zildjian guy says "ok lets sell it for a lot of money" and thats how this cymbal came to be. ask anyone :)
Although this may have come to be due to a mistake in the system... who cares?? don't most drummers try and look for weird sounding percussive instruments or even none instrumental things to bang on... so what difference is this? I guess the price for this is stupid but meh... Its just another kind of cymbal... like Rides/Crashes/Splashes/China's...
Dude, there was just a batch of Zildjian cymbals that got cut/torn in the machine and their cheap asses are trying to sell them... Idk why someone would buy this for more than a quiter alternative to porch windchimes.
i bet some guy just fucked up when cutting the cymbals out of the mold and instead of telling his boss that he fucked it up just said its "an innovation!!"
i actually saw these on chad sexton's kit at 311 day 2006 and 2008, he only used them once or twice but it was in tasteful application. until he actually started hitting them i just assumed it was part of the pneumatics for the drum riser, haha.
Would be kewl to make cracked cymbals into this type of sound effect.... I like the trashy sound..... Glenn Kotche uses one of these in his solo setup.......
not much my style,but these would go good with like some drum n bass kinda music,or if youre looking for some nice trashy overtones,i like the way he hit the sides of the cymbal to make sortof a bell sound,sounds very glassy very nice. thumbs up zildjian this is definitely a keeper =D
wuhuahuwhuahu che merda di piatto. Originale ok... ma dai.... siamo seri, se prendi delle reti metalliche in campagna e le strofini ottieni di questi suoni... xd
this guy is playin it like a fucking retard. If you just crash it once on the top it acctually has a pretty cool sound. if you wail on it like this jackass it sounds like dogshit
they're not made to beat the fuck out of.... it's an accent to a percussion set up or gives variety to any kind of drum set in fills., not like a china on a heavy metal breakdown
they look good, but i bet they hard to play and to put ur foot on and off it would be shit- took that guy about 5 attempts to do it when he wasnt even playing a kit- rip off i wouldnt buy one :\
it actually sounds pretty good, but i'd say it is more for orchestras, because using your fingers and mallets it sounds freaking awesome, like a small build up on a chinese.
wow.... seriously zildjian.....
