Review: "The 18" heavy crash was, in a word, "unforgiving." Its ear-stinging performance literally made me wince. The crash was so loud, in fact, that it seemed to drown out the ride and the hi-hat that I was playing. That effect was intensified by its seemingly endless decay. I can't imagine using this cymbal night after night without my hearing being affected. Truth be told, my ears were still ringing after one jam session in which I used the 18" and the 19" together. Their pervasive, sympathetic and harmonious ringing shot straight through my skull like metal spikes.
At times the focused ringing accumulated into a sonic wash worthy of any heavy metal band. It was obvious that these cymbals are designed for drummers who look for that constant cymbal "fuzz". Subtlety simply doesn't enter into the equation."
