cherry bomb is a sick snare, but :tdown: to blast beats. I find them to be one of the most boring techniques you can play.

I saw one for like 450 and wish I had the cash to pull the trigger. Like I said it is a sick snare, but I would not use it to the extent that I should for paying that much for a snare.

The concept of blast beats is relatively easy, but getting the correct technique and being able to do them for extended periods of time is not.

George Kollias is probably the greatest death/extreme metal drummer ever IMO.
