Drum heads you use

Okay, I'm starting a poll for the drum heads that all of you people use. I think that Evans is going to win this, but we'll see.

Evans will win? You must be crazy. How can you beat Remo? How?

(Evans EC2 clears do sound good though, hahah).

I use Evans G2 coated heads. They are great in my opinion for the style of music I play.

I tried evens years ago and had nothing but probloms with them and I was in Iceland at the time and finding remo was a chore so I had to start buying them in the US and having them shipped to me because of all the problems I had with the evens, and I tryed almost every head that they had in there line and they all lasted less than a month, but with the remo they lasted for at least 4-5 months and kept a good sound quality to them.
So I dont think I will ever use evens again if it can be helped.

I think that hey are good heads, I have a few on my kit now and I am really impressed with them.
I had bought some back in the day and they broke almost the same week that I got them and I never bought one after that but a few months ago the guy at the music shop talked me into getting them and they are lasting longer than my remo pinstripes so I might just stick with them and see where they go.

If you talk about Aquarian heads and you have any defective ones in hands from now on, then just call or email Aquarian telling them the problem and I'm sure they will manage to find a solution to the problem (mostly replacing the defective one free of charge).

Thats really neat I didnt know that they would do that. Do any of the other companys have the same polices I wonder?

I know when I was in marching band we used the K-falam kevlar heads and we were pulling them constanty. but when you got a really good one it was wild what you could do with them.

we had a really old beat to death marching snare that was almost dead so we decided to finish it off with one of those heads and we kept cranking down on it till it imploded. it was really cool and I dont thnk I have ever seen a drum do that since then.
