Review: "Zildjian has also added two special-effects cymbals to the line: 6" and 9 1/2" Zil-Bels. These are essentially industrial-weight cymbal bells that verge on sounding like anvils. Besides their obvious suitability for aggressive, cutting, Latin-type bell patterns, the Zil-Bels can also be struck on their edges, producing sustained church-bell or chime-like tones. (You'll have to decide for yourself how applicable that is for your particular requirements.) These are more "metallic percussion instruments" than "cymbals," but they could certainly add some color to a drumkit setup."
