I wish that song was longer.

[ThePinkofCondition]

1:12-1:45 Apocalypso

2:55- 3:21 Why Are You Looking Grave

Two of their best songs! I had no clue he records drums and cymbals separately.

Silas is amazing!

[Schlitzcat]

Silas is an underrated drummer. I think he's quite amazing and inventive.

[audarocka]

Beautiful how Silas says beautiful.

Great One, I like it. Keep rocking Silas. : ) 

[MereyToy]

me too. maybe they record them separately because the snare drum needs special sound effects....

[neelshiv]

Can anybody ID the snares? The big boy up top is a Sonor snare, perhaps a Horst Link Ferromanganese (hilarious name, I know). The one on the left looks almost like it has ludwig lugs, but most of their snare shells are beaded, so I'm not sure what it is. I'm not sure what else he has. The resolution is pretty poor.

I want to make love to Silas' drumming.

would someone be so kind as to make that possible please?

[Aljeos]

He's amazing!!! It's like a game for him... I like his style

[neelshiv]

Louise Louisa, Apocalypso, Saviours of Jazz Ballet, Circuitry of the Wolf, Why Are You Looking Grave, Small Ambulence

@lovo356 I believe it was done that way to really capture the cymbals and the drums serperately so that everything together would blend nicely. I've never recorded like this personally but it seems like an interesting idea and from how Mew's ATGHK's sounds, one that works well in their case!
