>band has no drummer, he was replaced by a drum machine

>two door cinema club

It almost always sounds like shit because they don't have an actual electronic music producer so they just make shitty basic drum patterns. Am i right, or am i not? am i?

having experienced the struggle of trying to find a functional drummer, i feel for these bands
good drummers are probably as rare as good bassists

the name's the same but Andrew switched up the drum machine numerous times throughout the years.

>>73271121
Band is just one guy screaming into a microphone through a sound system that's feeding back while he has a drum machine playing blast beats at the fastest possible setting at a ridiculous volume making the speakers distort.

>>73271845
that depends on the band entirely. I've heard cases of what you said but you really need to listen to Godflesh, Big Black, Sisters of Mercy, and certain Ministry / NIN material.

>>73276183
the inhuman relentlessness of a drum machine is great for atmosphere you pleb.

>drums are actually programmed but use samples of personally recorded drum sounds from different acoustic spaces

>>73273160
true

>>73276221
I didn't mean that I thought drum machines were always inherently bad. I was just arguing against the point that drum machines are inherently better than drummers because of their precision. Both have their pros and cons and fit certain types of music differently. but one is not generally inherently better than the other because the level of precision.

>>73276258
this is a surprisingly common technique and produces some good interesting results

>>73276221
>Godflesh
Broadrick IS a producer though

>band uses percussion

>>73276277
That'll be true for probably 20 more years maybe? Music programming is becoming more and more realistic and drums will probably be the first thing to go.

>>73276309
iirc his only electronic project before Godflesh was a noise project as a teenager. He's just good at programming because he was really into hip hop.

>organist leaves band

>>73276393
he only played drums, and the only electronic elements on the album he played on were some very sparse samples that I don't think were his doing.

>>73276316
Sounds kinda boring desu. Computers have a near limitless capability to create any sound imaginable. I don't think simulating other instruments is really using the technology to its full potential. Like, you can use technology to make any sound imaginable, and you're just gonna use it to imitate a guitar or something? lame.

k-guys are we doing this?

>>73278259
is this essential drum machine core? Replace Nail with Thaw. Add Godflesh Streetcleaner and Ministry Land of Rape and Honey. Are we going purely drum machine or can the album be mostly drum programmed?

>>73278259
add Pure Guava by Ween

>>73278478
Mostly drum-machine
That's why i'm not adding The Fall's Bend Sinister for example

Don't wanna fill the chart with EBM and Hip-Hop though

>>73278626
also I addded Deathconciousness

>>73278626
oh yeah Jesus Lizard's debut EP Pure is entirely drum programmed. Earth's initial output was entirely drum machine as well so I'd add A Bureaucratic Desire for Extra-Capsular Extraction. Marilyn Manson's Antichrist Superstar is mostly drum programmed as is his debut but add at your own risk since he's so polarizing. Also is Rembrandt Pussyhorse really drum programmed? That album had two drummers.

With that the chart would be finished
I thought Rembrant was mostly drum programmed due to many of them using drum machines (American Woman, Waiting for Jimmy to Kick In)

>>73278833
Well that album is sample/tape heavy it's possible the drums on American Woman are just tape loops or some other production trickery. I would also mention Scorn Colossus and Nailbomb's Point Blank but I see your chart is already full now.
