Review:

Review: "All of the Epochs are distinguished by their medium to medium-heavy weights. This bulk, combined with the amount of hammering and lathing present produces stunningly complex cymbals that also deliver a potent kick.

The hi-hats are bright and cutting yet at the same time warm and full-bodied. Received wisdom might suggest that such characteristics would cancel one another out, but these hats defy such conventions. Instead they produce a delicious blend of deep, earthy tones beneath the sizzling attack. Stepping gives a fat 'chick' while laying into them with a relaxed pedal foot leaves them fizzing with enthusiasm."
