Description
News
Coated Emperors have become the industry standard for harder hitting applications. Their sound is best described by an open, warm, resonant tone with a warmer attack. Artists who swear by Coated Emperors include Kenny Aronoff, JR Robinson, John Tempesta, Virgil Donati, Tom Brechtlein use Coated Emperor.
Emperor
Emperor heads are the darkest sounding and most durable of the classic WeatherKing series. These heads use 2 free-floating plys of 7 mil film, which gives them their consistent open tones and accounts for their popularity among many of today's top drummers.
Remo's never-ending innovation has brought these (and all of Remo's other two-ply heads including Pinstripe, Suede, and Renaissance) heads to new levels. They offer the sustain, roundness, and clarity of single ply drumheads with two ply durability, making them the industry standard of what two ply heads should be.

Remo Coated Emperor Drumhead Reviews
4 out of 10
"New Coating Process Inferior!"
Overall:
I have used emperors for over 20 years. Now they change the coating process to a consistency of trace paper, "I could read the box it came in through the head." I put it on my snare as usual, but this time the coating came off in a cloud of tiny little dust flakes every time I hit, and I don't hit that hard for blues. Not only that, coating around the edge flaked off where the tip "rubs" during a cross shot. The brushes grab during the swirl. No pitting, and it still sounds great, but I'm going back to Evans dry.
