I’m looking for suggestions for my drum jam-along playlist, so any song you love that has a good beat I’m open to. Whatcha got?
Edit: for clarification my plan is to add all these to a playlist and tomorrow my practice session is gonna just be jamming to that playlist. Load me up!
- Kashmir - Led Zeppelin. Really anything from Physical Graffiti or by John Bonham.
- Caravan - Buddy Rich
- The Blues Walk - Max Roach & Clifford Brown
- Tom Sawyer - Rush. Or really anything else with Neil Peart.
- John the Fisherman - Primus. They won’t be the same since Tim “Herb” Alexander left the band, but I’m sure he has his reasons.(also: Hamburger Train, Over the Electric Grapevine, Tommy the Cat, Mr. Knowitall, Harold of the Rocks)
- Discipline - King Crimson (also: Thela Hun Ginjeet and most of the rest of the album, which seems to mostly treat the guitar as a percussion instrument more than most.)
Sorry if these are cliche.
I love watching the studio video of Tom Sawyer. The intensity of all of them when they record that, especially Peart.
Thanks, I hadn’t seen that before, that was fun
For a drum jam-along? Here’s my suggestions for some fairly drum-focused songs.
Shobaleader One - Squarepusher Theme
Primus - Wynona’s Big Brown Beaver
Brian Eno - Here Come the Warm Jets (drums kick in at about 2 mins)
Flamingosis - Brunch at the Bodega
Local H - “Cha” Said the Kitty
You have good taste
Avatar - Smells Like a Freakshow
This one flew under my radar until a couple days ago - little more repetitive than I usually like, but the beat do be killer.
Edit - actually now that I think of it, Avatar has pretty aggressive beats across the board - might want to dig through their other stuff too.
Lemon Demon - My Trains [Youtube]
(I don’t know much about drums but this song just sounds really good)
it’s where I got my username
keep this benzine ring around your finger, and think of me when everything you wanted starts to end
- Enough by Disturbed
- Seven Nation Army by the White Stripes.
- Take Me Out by Franz Ferdinand
- Hootsforce by Gloryhammer
- Mine Mine Mine by Wind Rose
- Four To Six by Math The Band
“Driving with the top down” Tony Stark’s first flight with the Mark 2. I found a metal cover on Youtube.
Idk, I’ve been listening to reggae, ska, ska punk
DatA - Skywriter, for sure
Sounds like a melody by A life divided
Hows about Feuerhake - Tic Tac

Basically anything by Run the Jewels.
