From Seattle with attitude

In the early 1990s, a guitar-heavy new musical category set out to conquer the hearts and ears of the audience. A new generation of artists would unleash distorted guitars, angry drums, and bucketloads of attitude onto an audience that was suddenly keen to rock out again. Influenced by classic rock of the 1960s and ‘70s, and in opposition to the synthetic aesthetics of the prior decade, bands like Rage Against The Machine, Nirvana, Soundgarden, or Alice in Chains popularized the next incarnation of Rock music. Its playbook is still today the go-to for guitar-heavy hard rocking styles.

Punchy, crisp character

What makes BRUTE special? First and foremost it has been designed, recorded and processed to do one thing really well: Compete with layered walls of distorted guitars while maintaining character and detail. This was a tricky challenge… The solution was to record with three different sets of microphones that emphasize different aspects of the drum sound.

Kit Rock

The five drum kits in BRUTE have been composed with specific styles in mind.

• Dark - The Stoner: Fat, wide, lower tuning. Slow-roll with this!

• Dirty - The Punk: short and punchy for aggressive double-time fun.

• Tight - The Crossover: More expression and detail, using e.g. a high-tuned piccolo snare.

• Noble - The Radio Rocker: Full-bodied, refined and punchy, for alternative anthems.

• Prime - The Mainstreamer: Superb and well balanced for sold-out stadiums and rock royalty.
