Making the most of a small room

I was mucking around today playing along with a track from the Antelope Zen demo stems from Sweetwater.

I liked the room they originally recorded in and the original drummer was amazing.

My room is 15 by 30 but has a low ceiling about 6 ft 3 I've made my room dead as the original surfaces are Cinderblocks and concrete. As a result it can sound boxy.

How to build my new acoustic room ?

Hy everyone,
I recently bought Owens Corning oc703 acoustical panels (18 panels).
And i dont know how to make the panels (with wood frame or without), to cut them in half and put in the corners or just put them without cutting in the middle, where exactly to put them etc...
And also i bought burlap fabric which i heard is good for this type of panels.

Need input on room simulation

Hi all..

I'm doing a rocker for this next song on the album I'm engineering...

This is definitely not a "clean / studio" sound I'm after here. I'm looking for a sort of "trashy" vibe to it, particularly on drums, but... I'd rather use just one reverb on everything to emulate the vibe of a band playing all at once in the same space.
