Review: "Zildjian's Oriental Trash Splashes have some personality. They possess that short splash sound, but with a hint of dirt in there. Apparently it takes additional hammering to create these instruments, and they are very thin. They're even odd-sized: 9" and 11".The 9" actually has a slight tone to it that is very reminiscent of Chinese opera gongs—that wavering pitch effect. The 11", while being just as exotic-sounding as the 9", has a bit more body and presence.

If you're looking to introduce a splash to your setup but want a sound that's just a bit different, or you want to add a splash that will stand out from other splashes on your kit, the Oriental Trash Splash is the answer."
