LOL - We used to call that lick 'The Heavy Metal March!' Comes up alot in early metal music. I learned it in the 80's. Three groups of four stroke figures going into triplets. The whole thing is just broken-up triplets. You can play it hand to hand on the snare, or both hands playing the same thing/simultaneously between the snare and floor tom, you hammer out the 1/4 notes on the bass drum. It's a heavy 'walking' rhythm that can really drive the music if you keep it powerful and tight.John
Thank you Purdie Shuffle
The version of Child In Time from Made In Japan is way heavier than the one in the video. Really makes that triplet march sound huge.
Thanks Drumguy, I liked seeing the video.
The ending rideout on Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath uses it too.The riff itself probably comes from classical music or maybe traditional Spanish music.
Thanks for the input eamesuser!
And the "Big O" loved it..... I have always known that Syncopation as Bolero..Cheers
Ha ha, perfect guys! Thank you!
It was a great question for a thread! I knew it was used a lot in metal music, but seeing these videos, now I realize it was used way more often than I thought!
March out! :D
