These definitely different cymbals were inspired by the revolution of punk and metal during the late 1970s. RUDE continues to be the leading choice of sound for raw, merciless and powerful musical energy in Rock, Metal, and Punk.
Sound Character: Medium bright, raw, full, energetic. Fairly wide range, complex mix. Fairly heavy feel, metallic ping over dirty, full supporting wash. Great for full, loud ride playing and incredibly strong, full crashes.
