Unmixed indie/emo drum tracks. OPINIONS!

[xtjdx]

Alright, here's the deal. I recorded a band today. For what I'm working with, I think the drum sound is amazing. This is unmixed (aside from a master compressor I used to bring the volume up a bit) and the guitar track is a scratch. Feedback appreciated!

Sounds like triggers/samples were involved.

Surprisingly, none at all.
I just took more than 5 minutes this time to mic it.
D112 on the kick, SM57 on the snare about 6 inches away.

SM57 6-8 inches away facing a little off center. Of course, he had a big goofy snare (the barrel shaped inside) and it sounded very good in the first place.
