When you lose an arm and your drumming doesn't sound any different afterwards. He had an arm for Pyromania, right? Well, the Hysteria album's got that same "quantized" feel to it. Maybe it's me.
And maybe we could gate that snare a little more so you can't tell if it's hitting on the 2 or the 3.

Thats a very good point! I always found that the tone sounded pretty much the same in hysteria as it did do in the past, although he was doing more interesting stuff, which comes from using feet rather then hands i guess.

So what you say is that with two arms he did a job that could have been done with one arm as well?
That means the drumming on the first album wasn't all that impressive.

Actually, about all I can listen to is High and Dry, but after that I'm out. Now if we WERE talking about those first two albums, then ok. They're a good band, I just think that the batterie department is the weak spot.

My Lovely Man is amazing drumming. I wouldn't say he quite does five things at once (unless he has a stick in his mouth too)! It's just simple rolling of the hi-hat with clever snare and bass pedal. You should check his Red Hot Rhymths DVD with Flea, absolute class - you can view some of it on YouTube actually...
