Review: "Break Bell was developed by Jay Weinberg and features a straight cone shape on the cup part. The flanged edge also has a hammering like a stapler needle, which is said to be inspired by the sounds used in Eastern rituals and ceremonies. Its unique tone and quick response make it a testament to its prowess beyond heavy music.
Following the Blast Bell that appeared in 2022, a new bell has appeared. Since the Volcano Cup Zil-Bel, various shapes of bells have been introduced, but this one is also unique. It is thin for a bell-type cymbal and has a fantastic chime-like sound reminiscent of the East. Personally, I own what I think is a prototype of this bell, and I am attracted to the function brought about by the linear conical cup part. When layered on top of other cymbals, the cups do not stick to each other, so the sounds of both sides tend to blend well."
