The legendary drummer, as Alicia Warrington confirms in her introduction in the video, has influenced thousands of drummers and musicians worldwide for over almost 35 years now. To celebrate the 35th anniversary of the Rude and to commemorate the anniversary of Paiste collaborating with Dave Lombardo, they created the 22" Rude Power Ride Reign. The sound of it is based on the original cymbal which can be heard on the epic and pinnacle Slayer album 'Reign in Blood'.

Watch the first video to see and hear Dave Lombardo talking about Paiste, the Rude series and demo the new Rude Reign. The second one features Stewart Copeland playing it as well and giving you some great insights.

"This is definitely a milestone for me. I have been playing the Rudes about as long as the Rudes have been around. I found the original cymbal that I used on the recordings in 1986. I am very honored Paiste made this cymbal."
- Dave Lombardo

"That is a very good bell! The Rudes have always been great, because there is a lot of metal in the cymbal. That makes it cut through."
- Stewart Copeland

Paiste describes the cymbal as follows:

"This extremely heavy ride cymbal features a cutting, metallic ping, always clear even in extreme volume situations. Its vitality supports Lombardo’s preference for dynamic, agile playing. The large bell leaves nothing to be desired in terms of aggressiveness and fullness.

The raw look of the non-lathed 22" Rude Power Ride Reign is a classic and underlines the lusty, brute power of the cymbal. The groove on the bell provides a shot of extra depth.

Rudes are entirely made by hand in Switzerland from the original CuSn8 bronze using traditional methods that have remained unchanged in over half a century."
