They're hilariously bad.

Indeed it was. I rock out to those songs any chance I remember I have the record. Good times.

I forgot to include Peter Gabriel 3 in my list of faves and someone's psot back there reminded me... I would most definitely like to add this aa a big time favorite eighties album, one which even played a pivotal role in shaping some of the elements of production values in the eighties, the gated reverb drum sound, in particular...

Yeah, apparently PG decided there would be no cymbals used on PG3, though I'm not sure if that sound was developed on this album, or on Face Value. I know Phil Collins was involved somewhere along the way.

Anyway, a tour de force of drumming on this album, particularly 'No Self Control'.

Listen to it again and I challenge you to find a cymbal or hi-hat...

This is a much debated point... but really its six of one and half a dozen of the other... It was Gabriel`s idea to ditch metallic sounds, he wanted the cymbal and hi hat free sound, but it was Collins who played the actual experiments with the sound... particularly during the drum track recordings for songs like Intruder...

I LOVE the sound of PG3 by the way... I love the sound of the drums and how well it works to have no cymbals. A truly original album.
