I'd have to agree with Goetia up there. This was something most extreme to hit my ears this morning. I looked up "Hella" on Youtube not too far off ago, and had a chance to watch Zach Hill on drums there. I have to say that Hella really isn't my thing and as I watched the videos I wondered why that guitarist was even there with the calamity of the drums. It was cluttered noise to my ears. I couldn't stop watching Zach tear those damn drums up though, and thinking "Yeah, put this guy with Omar, and you can have some really good results."
I honestly hope that Thomas Pridgeon remains in the Volta though, I still don't think Zach Hill compares to him. He's fast, sure, but that's never what it was all about to me. Pridgeon goes fast with great groove.

Thomas will remain in the Volta... This was recorded almost three years ago, before Thomas joined.
