Hi there.

I'm very interested in trying out the "separate" Queens of the stone age drum tracking technique in my forthcoming recording as I really dig the drum sound on Songs for the deaf.

Anyone got any ideas on how to pull this off the best way?

Two scenarios come to mind:

1) track everything but hi-hat and cymbals first - overdub later
2) track only kick + snare first - overdub toms + cymbals later

What do you think - what have you tried - what works out?

Cheers, Lasso.
