stated another way: it's a good drummer with a lot of simple, and sometimes boring, riffs. there's nothing happening in the middle or the top of the mix.
but he's actually a bassist, right?
when something like lightning bolt did this, they made sure to fill up the whole spectrum. that's what they're missing here...
now, you could argue "but, they have singer!", as though this guy's guttural caveman yelping is any substitute, right?
i think they recently had a guitarist. they need to get another one.
