  • New Roland V-Drums

    Sweet! Roland has introduced a new series, the TD-9, to fill out its venerable line of V-Drums. Those of you lucky enough to be attending NAMM (our badges, alas, appear to be lost in the mail) will be able to try a kit out. No word on pricing yet, but the series is mid-level. $2,000?


  • More Mapex Gear for the New Year

    Yeah, we just couldn’t resist posting some more Mapex pics. The company has the best drum porn in the industry.

    • Pro M kit in a Boston Pewter finish

  • Win a Kabuto Snare From Yamaha

    It’s red, it’s steel, it’s 14″x 5.5″, and you can win it from Yamaha here. Last day to submit an entry is February 29, 2008.


  • New Mapex Gear for the New Year

    Damn you, Mapex. Resolution primarius this year was to not spend cash I don’t have. And now you’ve gone and introduced cool shit I must own.

    New Mapex stuff in random order of cool-shitness:

    1. Thick Flamed maple snare.
    2. “Krushed” glass finishes.
    3. Limited-edition Orion kit with a Chocolate Burl veneer.
