Guest Billov Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 They're missing the monster/radiator growl noise.... but otherwise pretty awesome. I've always liked steel drums, but I'd probably hate to play them... they'd sound irritating on their own.

baph Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 It's pretty great. Could be perfected by scooting one of those drums a short distance across that nice hardwood, periodically.

Guest Masonic Boom Posted June 25, 2010 Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 It is actually surprisingly good - the steel drum suits that kind of muted sound really well.

Guest PWSTEAL Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 This look like a high-school band, or early college. I bet you these kids don't even know who AFX is, maybe one does...

Hautlle Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 This kind of stuff makes me sad that my band directors in high school were so shitty.... I was in the drum line and did percussion ensemble stuff like this, but we almost never got to pick what we played (we might have been given a choice from 2 or 3 pre-selected works) We did a fucking Saturday Night Fever show once... Do you have any idea how boring that is for a marching band drum-line?
