I'll agree with Jacob. Yes, they are skillful, but that's not really what I enjoy.. sadly

The drumming is way too sloppy. If you're going to try and be technical you better make sure you're tight as hell.

This statement includes why I never got the praise for everything Zach Hill is involved. He's good, but I prefer TIGHT drumming over this any time.

indeed. i do enjoy some of the stuff zach is involved in, but he has such a distinct style, which makes him more interesting i guess.
