who created a very unique combination.
Switching back and forth from a seated kit and a stand up kit, they came up with a unique rhythm section for a very heavy and dark edged band
Anthony left after their 1st album and was replaced by Kyle Thomas.
Kyle did not work out very well, do he was replaced by Michael Jerome.
Over the years I have had the pleasure of seeing many C.O.E. shows
(I even broke my collarbone at one!) including their very last show.
They were always very friendly and accomadating and I got to see some incredible performances.
Watching the two drummers playing in tandem pounding out tribal/industrial beats that drove a sound that I would describe as miassive and expansive.
Their recordings were as incredible as their live shows and I will miss seeing them.
