Hey Mark!we have used samples on all our records, and are responsible for the snare drum you have heard on most of colins records after he did impossibility...
What do you mean by this? Can you explain a bit?
I agree that, although I only heard a few short clips, the sound of this records kicks ass (god those guitars...) and is the best you ever had (though I only have "The Impossibility of Reason" and "Chimaira"). But hey, how could it be elseway with Andy behind the desk...
