Designed in conjunction with Matt Garstka of Animals as Leaders fame, the Matt Garstka Signature Temporal Stack is another stunning addition to Meinl’s Artist Concept Model Series. Designed to, in Matt’s own words, provide a “dry, trashy, staccato response”, the Temporal Stack excels within the complex and progressive sound that Animals as Leaders have used to revolutionize the metal landscape. Matt Garstka is renowned for his drumming versatility, so it’s fitting that these cymbals aren’t strictly for technical metal patterns - Sweetwater drummers find the Temporal Stacks to sound just as great when playing styles ranging from complicated groove patterns to humble timekeeping duties. Whether you’re looking to capture some of Matt Garstka’s drumming magic or simply inject a unique new sound into your set, the Matt Garstka Signature Temporal Stack series delivers world-class Meinl tone in spades!
