Review: The name is very appropriate with this model. Not only is it pleasantly smooth, but it is dark, so much so that it outperformed a K Zildjian 18" Dark Crash Thin in this department. (See the video above for a comparison of these two.) I use this 18" a lot in my setup with great success, along with a couple of Fast Crashes. These two models go extremely well with each other, both in complimentary pitches, blending in with the music, providing a soothing sound perfect for the light rock that I currently play live.
