Or shit even the drums from Macbeth, that song has the perfect sound.
I'm not even a big production stickler, it's just Schizophrenia for some reason gets to me.
I don't mean to put words into Steve's mouth, but I believe I read somewhere that even he doesn't care much for the drums on Sister, like he wished he had been more vocal during post or something. Could be talking out of my ass, but it sounds familiar.
No discredit to the album though, the playing is absolutely tops, I love all the parts. And actually I'll amend my statement a bit, I was just listening to Pipeline/Killtime and I'd forgotten about that little jagged five second breakdown he does, I absolutely love the way that sounds.

My opinion is totally opposite. I have at first a little problem with the drumsounds in EVOL, but now I think they are part of that record. And maybe itīs good they are so different as in Sister, because those records have lot in common, so those drumsounds make them a little different records. But I think it would have been horrible if Evol drumsounds had been in Sister. And Macbeth sounds would have been even horrible (they fit very fine in Macbeth).
