Ben Frost - By The Throat. Bleak and desolate, yet chilling and intense ambient music. Very Nordic and very cool. Music for headphones and a winter night.
18" hi-hats! A drummer playing oversized hi-hats is like a footballer wearing white cleats in the '90s: if you're going to pull that kind of nonsense, you'd damn well better be good enough to back it up.
