You should alternate the single hits on the bass drum with double hits - that sounds a lot cooler and heavier, and that's what Dave Lombardo and Lars Ulrich (the first two masters of the thrash metal beat) usually did. Doing only single hits makes it sound more like a fast country or polka beat and not nearly as metal.
You can phrase it that way, there's no wrong way to achieve the same sound per se. If you're playing with just one foot you can always practice dynamics to achieve a similar sound. Definitely not wrong by saying that :) Thanks for the comment, man!
@@CameronFleury I just think it sounds more powerful and flows better going 1-1, 2-1, 1-1, 2-1 on the bass and snare rather than just 1-1, 1-1, 1-1 - that's always sounded weaker and kind of goofy to me.
"Over from Europe to the Western culture... the Americas." FYI... Western Europe (as opposed to Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East) is precisely what is meant by Western culture. America is part of Western culture because of Western European colonisation, and that's it. It's by no means the root of Western culture.
Sanking is originally Lwhat skinheads danced to ska in the 60s. Nothing to do with punks or moshing. Moshing was a term coined by Agnostic Front guitarist vinne stigma and has more in common with slam dancing. Where do you get your info from???!!!
so having growed up in the 80s on a steady died of Thrash Metal I must disagree this is a blast beat maybe not to 2020 speed metal standards but it's a blast beat, when I saw the Thrash Metal beat I just had to visit and see this video, a Thrash metal beat is the simple Base Snare Base Base Snare and repeat a million times, sure some songs implement the Polka as well but listen to the early Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, you know the Big Four and you hear the Bass Snare Bass Bass Snare in every song
A blast beat is kick and cymbal together followed by snare alone played at an extremely fast tempo. It's what you hear in Napalm Death songs, they were the band that invented the term "blast beat"
You should make a poll to see how many drummers are here to learn how to play vs guitarists needing to make a drum beat on their pc/phone to play along to lol
Mate. I am a lead singer and a guitarist from London, England. I am 24 years old. Maybe if you ever come to London, call me on my number 07443549946 and we'll arrange to jam together.
Cool lesson. As a guitar and key player, I've been wanting to learn to play drums for metal music to record my own drum tracks.
hows it coming along man? you start learning?
This needs more views
David Cannon thanks man. Wish it did too!
Definitely be tuning back into this later this evening. Keep it up dude!
Whelan Drums thanks man! That’s the plan 🤓🤘
Drums are really great. :)

@@hinjurock That would be called a gallop.
@@ConeTheBoss559
That's just a standard fast hardcore punk/thrash metal beat, dude.
@@hinjurock I might have mistaken this for a gallop actually, do you mean that boot camp booty camp? Instead of just boot camp boot camp boot camp?
thx dude, im really need it. thx , & what about the Obituary Beats ?
Cool lesson!! Keep on Skanking!! oh wait that might mean something else😂😂 keep on rocking I really like your videos!!
Hope to have new lessons up in the near future. Thanks for the support and kind words!
Oh. I thought it was called the skank beat because it was easy and anyone could play it.
That’s amazing. 😂
still the best drum beat ever at 200 bpm
Lmfao!!!! Fucking Classic!!!! 🤣 🤣 🤣

This is a channel about drums, bro.

I searched-polka drum beat and this was like the 5th video in order
It's pretty well a fast polka!
...and then there's traditional blast
cause that's what it is, the name keeps changing but there is no simpler beat than this 2 beat measure over and over again
Just asking, if i got into drumming starting fresh, how many months do i have to practice to be able to make skank beats at like 150 to 250 bpm?
So if you play quarter notes on the cymbal you get a blast beat?
If you quit the cimbal of the snare and you play it very fast you have a blast

I thought blast beats had snare and cymbal hitting at same time?

What type of snare are you using here? Your snare sound is really tight!

SKANKS!
Not what you're thinking :p
Judas Priest, Megadeth, Machine Head, Bullet For My Valentine and Metallica also play thrash metal mate.
Of course! Those were just a few examples! Those are all great bands too by the way! 🤘
