That's what I like to see! A big carpet over the bass drum!

I think it's to keep the Bass drum still and not move about.

My guest would be something else : let's say that the bass drum could sounds like a "duh" instead of a "too" because it's isolated in a better way.

Yeah, the carpet is obviously there for better sound.

I looked at the picture again and your absolutly right, I was talking about the wrong carpet xD, I never even noticed that one

[Bobbyjames]

[Emil]

Not necessarily better...but maybe just different?

I think covering the bass drum like that ensures that the mic only picks up the sound of the bass drum and not the cymbals and snare aswell. It provides a clearer bass drum sound, I'm guessing. If that's correct and they're doing more stuff like this, then the album will probably be their best sounding album yet. And that makes me excited.
