i think this friendly (lets keep it friendly people!) debate between Brow-Tim and Mr. Arrow is one that can't be answered. By either side. Debating the "Difficulty" of any two things, especially when relating to something like music, where the goals are all person opinion, is not possible. All drummers are going to want different things out of their playing, and will have totally different priorities, so what's difficult for one, because he's trying to reach objective A, will be simple for someone else, because he doesn't care about objective A, he cares about objective B.

I could argue either side, because i understand both sides. But they're not really comparable, they're different mediums of art. So everyone please, before you state that using triggers is this, or playing acoustic is that, remember, it's an art form, and it's different for everyone.

right jimbo. using triggers is a means to an end to make your patterns audible and MAKE BOARCORPSE SOUND BETTER, which is different than covering up a bad drum sound or a bad drummer by slapping triggers on it. i think we can all agree with this.

Trigger story: at Maryland Death Fest 2009, Mayhem played. As far as I can tell, Hellhammer uses a DM5 sampler for his entire kit, which is huge. During their setup, he would hit the drum samples, and they sounded fucking awful. I almost left because I knew it would bother me for their whole set. So they start playing, and soon I became entranced with what they were doing on stage. They sounded phenomenal for one thing, but the show experience was unreal. One of the greatest sets I've ever seen. So, would it have been better if Hellhammer used his REAL drum sound? Not for me to say, but as regular old compressed black metal band, the drum trigger application was more than adequate for them.
