The absence of Berry, who left as the result of a brain aneurysm during the Monster Tour, translates itself into an exotic mixture of spacey beats on several tracks. Screaming Trees drummer Barret Martin and Beck's Joey Waronker add occasional human drumming, but in reality, the drumming doesn't play too major a role in the guitar and vocal-driven group...
