Holy hell, PT LE and alot of patience. Apparently, thats all you need.

damn...
It's a shame i think, Flo is a drummer who can make his kit sound really good without all the triggering..

Yeah, but then he wouldn't cause enough suffering for his recording staff. Now, come up with a way to use your assistant's face as a beater pad...

I think the production on "the unspoken king" was really average, especially the drums sound. Sounded like poor preproduction to me, while "The Whisper Supremacy" and "And then you'll beg" sounded AWESOME.

After tracking down the new album, I agree with Djabthrash. It seems to me like they spent too much time perfectly replacing drum hits and not enough time processing the samples and actually crafting the overall sound.

I really like The Whisper Supremacy as well.
