'''Review:''' The Black Alpha Metal Ride has an icy, loud sound. The Colorsound coating dries out the sound quite a bit, leaving only a little bit of wash audible. The bell on this is larger than usual, so easy to hit. It produces a piercing "ding" that cuts easily through music. Fast sticking results in clarity between the notes, due to its dry nature. This cymbal doesn't crash well at all, producing a sound that is gong-like, and discordant. <br>

Review: The Black Alpha Metal Ride has an icy, loud sound. The Colorsound coating dries out the sound quite a bit, leaving only a little bit of wash audible. The bell on this is larger than usual, so easy to hit. It produces a piercing "ding" that cuts easily through music. Fast sticking results in clarity between the notes, due to its dry nature. This cymbal doesn't crash well at all, producing a sound that is gong-like, and discordant.
