They were never the same without Nick or Lanegan. They were at their best when it was the three of them - Nick, Mark, and Josh. Watch an old live clip of In the Fade when Nick was still there - never got much better in my mind.
Every album by this band is gold, regardless of who's in the lineup. If Red Elvis is at the helm, it's a top-notch work of art. Them Crooked Vultures is proof of that. Nick, with all due respect - he was still around when the seminal stuff was being made, I haven't seen any really good projects, he still seems to have not grown up, along with his weird fans.
No, not every album from the band is gold. The first 3 albums were bar none the best they've ever produced and it's been a slow and obvious decline since. Them Crooked Vulture was a super group with 3 equally talented musicians. Hardly an apt comparison. With all due respect, Nick was that spark that transformed the band into a juggernaut. He brought the edge that Homme inherently lacks. Kind of like yourself. @@sskiba_paradiso
to this day I´m trying to figure out what tama drums Dave played back on that time. I know Taylor used to use the Starclassics. I never find the drums dave uses around thats gigs
These are starclassic performers, but dave also used superstars around this time as well. Really any '95-'02 birch shell dave could backline form tama, he'd use (from what i can tell).
