@LuminaireDivided fuck thats a good comment motherfucker.

@Theblob516 well i agree that when they're "loose" you can judge but that would only be live. and on the records you'd definitely notice differences in style (drummers of different styles tend to be louder, softer, more syncopated, maybe the types to put an accent where it doesnt really go) but probably not much difference in technical skill. i think the only times we can really judge them is live and in different bands, but it shouldnt even matter as long as volta albums kick ass

@canthinkverywell Omar writes the stuff yes, but the sound of the drummer is so much more influenced by the drummer's personal style (much more than a guitarist). And plus the band is soo loose that at times they're free to play whatever. You can definitely tell the differences between Jon and Thomas even though they don't necessarily "write" any of it.

@elcispunkyoxo does any1 here realize it doesnt matter because omar composes everything? except i think on deloused. and yes, they're both amazing drummers because they're able to play the crazy shit that's written, but we can't tell which one's better from tmv recordings because its too controlled by omar. live maybe when they improv we can judge a little. and in other bands they've been in where they compose their own shit, then we know.

First I heard was Frances the Mute.
But I prefer De-Loused and Amputechture.

Bedlam Is The Best By Far But after That Frances The Mute Kicks Ass Also
-
No. Omar fired him because he "wasn't happy playing live" and he was bringing the rest of the bands mood down.
He's still a good drummer. One Day As a Lion was pretty cool.



Can't you just be happy that there are bands out there who have the courage and vision to release such contrversial and excellent material? Its not your job to judge, just fucking listen you ingnorant ass. [if you agree with me, that wasn't meant for you]

i agree but i think his drumming on this album is amazing for this sound they were going for. what sound that is idk but jon did do an AMAZING job on Frances which is a totally different sound from TBIG
