"Let’s talk about your drum sound, Let’s go back to, say, De Misteriis and Constellation and those recordings. Now, that snare is my favorite snare ever. It’s such a deep, pounding, it’s just the most full snare. Every time you hit it, you feel it in your heart, you feel it in your chest and you can totally tell it’s such a good, thick snare. And I remember we talked about that... " HH: The one that I used on Mysteriis... was an 8" Pearl stainless steel snare. It was tuned...well, it wasn’t that high, but it wasn’t that low, either. The snare I used on Constellation was also a Pearl 8" snare, but it was a brass free-floating snare. That was tuned pretty high, cranked up...indeed, it was very good (drum), but now I prefer the piccolo stuff for, you know...Mayhem’s new stuff is kind of hyper-fast. When I play slower stuff, it’s cool to have a snare drum with some body and some depth, but playing this extremely fast stuff, you need a piccolo to really cut through.... I've placed this full interview on my site. www.dysperium.com/hellhammer.htm

I'm positive he means depth not head size. Especially listening to those albums he talks about using it on.

Very interesting, I think I read that a long long time ago, heh, not sure though. The interviewer is somewhat of a geek though...talks too much...anyway, I found this quite interesting, alligns with my views quite well: "suddenly black metal started to be kind of "happy" dark metal, with female vocals and lots of keyboards. Beautiful harmonies, almost like a pop tune. (Laughs) I don’t feel that they have the right to call themselves black metal, but they do that because black metal is a trend now, and they did sell more albums. I don’t know, maybe they believe it’s black metal, but for me, it’s not. "

Oh man, what a text, read almost the whole thing, but that's just ALOT!
Anyway, good statements on Hellhammer's part, I like the way he praises rudiments and stuff...
*goes of to practice his rudiments*

" I agree and I just haveto quote Mayhem on a resent interview on norvegian tv about dimmu borgir: melodies that you can sing/hum to! What the hell is that! ....on the same program they interviewed Fenriz of darkthrone and he made the statement: some bands make cake, we make bread! And that's ok if you like Cake, but you need bread to make cake! you see? lol
