Album Rating: 3.5 | Sound Off

"We're asking them not to release the album with a real drummer, because who cares if he's just playing the programmed parts anyway."



This I agree with. I just believe that it's not what Dino and Mike Heller have in mind. I'm under the impression that using programmed drums made them write slightly less inspired drumming parts. I could be totally wrong but I'm curious to see what they would do with live drums.

But yeah, if they just re-record the exact same drumming but live, it will be pointless, I can't hear any difference when it comes to the sound itself.

It's just that I have the feeling that Dino would try to make the initiative worth it and I like The Industrialist and think it's an album that could easily have been much better, it feels rushed in my opinion. So any improvement could make it feel more "finished."
