yeah don't listen to the drums, folks.  they're not important.  lmao.  anyway, I'm not a musician so won't get into all the jargon that's being thrown around - but I stand by my opinion that Clandestine is one of the grooviest, catchiest and most downright ENJOYABLE death metal albums every recorded - which is more important to me than any pseudo-intellectual academic analysis of the musical theory underpinning the album.  and yes the drums are phenomenally good too - in that they end up being a prominent part of the listening experience.
