The campaign carries the tagline, Genuine You, which hopes to evoke a rejuvenated love for the brand. One ad features August Burns Red drummer Matt Greiner and a second ad features the cymbal itself.

Of the campaign, a&g Chief Creative Officer Garry Greenberg said, “We started with the basics about Zildjian: it’s an authentic cymbal company that has the breadth and quality of cymbals that can unlock the sounds in drummer’s heads.”
