I always thought of it really close to something tribal. Drums of War in the background dancing around a fire the night before a huge battle. Floor Tom half time breakdown/2 step sections are the best
@@joeymadara7266I was just about say this. It just has such a primal energy to it! It also just works really well at building tension before a main riff drop or breakdown.
Hey dude really love your lessons. I’ve been playing drums for 30 years but my son has just stated learning and has learnt a lot from your videos. Good on you mate for taking time out of your daily life to teach people your skills. I wish I had more time to teach my son. But with your videos one can watch then replay again. Keep up the good work
Please keep making these kinds of videos dude. You are literally the only person on TH-cam that teaches this genre of music. And the way you break down each drum beat makes it easier for me to learn it. Please keep doing the LEARN 5 HARDCORE/PUNK beats. Maybe if you could, do some slower break-down type beats. That'd be cool. Anyways, keep on keeping on ✊ ive burned through all your videos like 5 times a piece so we need more stuff lol
Thank you! I am planning on making more videos, just been too busy touring/working so when I get some more free time I’m gonna bust some out for sure!! 🤠
Man, this is a really good video. Was trying to explain a beat at band practise, very badly, but I found it here. It's great you got the different tempos. (It was the 'reverse fast beat' I was looking for!)
im not a drummer i just do some midi drum maps by watching i can take points out of this so that my drums plays like a human being not a computer :P but finally someone made a video about hardcore/punk beats! dat big kiss goodnight album cover is sick!
I just found this channel on accident. And your video is golden. Everything warms my heart right here. Hardcore how I love it. Subscribed. I just started out on drums and have no clue where to start. I think the standard rock beats needs to be the one for now.
@@PrettyCoolDrumShow Yeah, they're a death metal/grindcore band that includes Pete Sandoval from Morbid Angel on drums. (If you're joking I'm sorry if it went over my head.)
I played drums for Sick Pleasure and Code of Honor back in the 80s, and I remember trying to talk Al from MDC out of playing so fast. The same songs would just get faster and faster until they went by in a blur, and Al's beats were turning back on themselves and losing all tension and dynamics. Speed Rules OK? I don't know. Anyway, I really admire your drumming and you remind me a bit of Chuck Biscuits. Which is a compliment!
That rules!! Thanks for the kind words! I love those Danzig records so I definitely take that as a compliment! Funny that sometimes playing things too fast can really take away the groove! But I have that problem too when my adrenaline kicks in playing live, I tend to play everything way too fast haha
Thank you Mr. Drummer Guy, this was so useful. Designed for people like me who just need the basics. I finally know what blast beats are, despite playing a version of them for 15 years. Several horns up.
This is a great video. The fast beats you play are proper. Most hardcore bands can’t play this properly (alot of tough guy hc) and it just sounds very underwhelming. You did it right and this is what makes or breaks or hood hc band imo
Thank you so much! I've finally found a bit more time to practice and your videos have helped me so much. I especially like part 2 punk/hardcore beats. I am looking to learn a drum beat similar to IDLES "White Privilege" or "Well Done". Any chance you could help? :) :) Thanks again!
Who are you? Are you in a band? You should if you're not, but you missed very important punk beats that I've been playing since 1980, and my friend Erik Sandin displays what I'm referring to very well in his body of work. Those early beats are different than what you're playing here. Those lightening double kick snare patterns were taught to me by Erik. We used to jam out in his basement in 1983-1984. Also research the D-Beat under my pals Channel, Spike T. Smith to reference the D-Beat you've left out here that are is bit more important falling in the timeline of punks beats that are all mainly rock beats sped up, and the ones you've chosen here are basic/standard punk beats that also bleed over into metal crossover '85-'86, otherwise very well done Tommy. 👏🏻😃👋🏻🥁 Time to make a top 10 list! Lol!
Hey Brian! Already beat you to it (hehehe) as I just posted a d-beat lesson video a couple days ago, you should watch it and let me know if I’m doing it any justice! Also, notice how the title of the video is called “5 punk beats” not “all of the punk beats” so naturally there will be some beats missing from the video since there’s more than 5 beats used in punk and hardcore. I plan on making more videos every week so I’ll eventually have them all covered, I hope. Anyway, I appreciate the support! I grew up listening to NOFX, and Erik’s drumming definitely influenced me when I was starting out especially the double kick pattern you referenced. Thanks again!
Way late on the answer but i've always heard the floor tom mosh beat called war drums in the context of metalcore/hardcore, no idea if there's a better name out there but that's what I think of when I hear it!
thank you so much, it's really helpful, can you show us how to play stick to your guns -what choice did you give us, defeater- red white and blue, bastards, and maybe from the story so far - nerve!!
Good lessons ! But i guess hihats in those tempos were 8th, not 16th notes :| And the tom "triplets" were not real 8-triplets(where a bar divided by 3 Equal parts) but a groups of 3 16th notes :)
Yeah I'm a noob on the drums so I wanted to clarify this too. The hihats are eighth notes right? Just playing on the 1 and, 2 and, 3and, 4 and. I think it's physically impossible to play 16th on high hats? Either way, awesome video here

His hands are not playing 16th notes 🙃. If notation is gonna put up in the vid, the counts should be referenced accurately. Other than that, I totally support this man, long live punk rock drums 👊🏼
No I’m not being that asshole commenter on TH-cam but those aren’t triplets in the Tom breakdown part, they are hits on the last 16 note before the following beat in between the 8 th notes..great job as well
Nice vid! Your right hand is doing quarter notes not sixteenth notes though! Just so you’re aware for future. And when you’re playing those spicy tom parts you’re adding sixteenth note additions not triplets. 👌👍
Nice, thanks for posting. Does anyone know who or when the heel toe beat started? I first heard it from NOFX and then all the Fat Wreck Chords bands seemed to do it. We called it the skip beat, not sure why. I was in several punk and hardcore bands in the 90s (bassist) and almost none of the drummers I played with could pull it off.
The floor tom mosh beat NEVER fails to get people moving at shows lol.
The enter sandman intro drum beat
SIDE TO FUCKING SIDE
2-STEP MF’ERS!!!

Am I crazy/wrong or is the Fast Beat and the Heel Toe Fast Beat the same? I can't tell the difference. They both sound the same to me.
@@bulletprooftiger1879the heel toe fast beat has one extra kick drum note
The irony of someone called "Cantwell" teaching skills
Joking, great video
Love the Coke Bust poster.
Beat 4 is my favorite. Especially when the toms just keep cycling after each snare hit. So good.
Hey dude really love your lessons. I’ve been playing drums for 30 years but my son has just stated learning and has learnt a lot from your videos.

These are great !!
That floor tom groove is what gets people Two steppin
There's just something mad satisfying about pattern 3 whether reversed or with the bass drum on the downbeat instead of the snare
Haha a drummer called tom.
There's a local politician near me named Tom Drum and his logo is literally 🥁
I'm a drummer called fill

The first bet he played on the intro was welcome to paradise. Excellent taste, my man
That mosh part is called a two step! Mainly cuz the snare is on the 2 and the 4, lotta modern hardcore punk is in on the 2 step like Gag
I knew I recognized you from somewhere!! Your work with Gouge Away is sick!
Thanks so much!!
oh shit nice catch GA fuckin rules
Thx for this video! I watched multiple times in the last few years and it help me so much understanding punk drums
Thank you! Also that Coke Bust poster is awesome!
Thanks! Coke Bust rules! Their drummer is amazing too
very nice.. im gonna teach this to our band drummer
This video is exactly what I needed- thanks so much for making it!
Awesome! Glad I could help!

Man they all just sound so good at 180bpm 🥹
Bro doesn’t even need a double peddle Whata wizard 😂 thank u bro
Brooks Wackerman is the GOAT of punk beat ! ;)
Oh yeah he’s great! Definitely a favorite of mine, especially his playing with bad religion
Go 200 bpm on 1-3 to go full on “Terrorizer”.
Is Terrorizer a band?
@@PrettyCoolDrumShow Yeah, they're a death metal/grindcore band that includes Pete Sandoval from Morbid Angel on drums. (If you're joking I'm sorry if it went over my head.)
Haha thanks! Morbid Angel is awesome so I’ll have to check them out
I enjoyed this very much.... Thank you
"Beat number 3 is what I call a reverse fast ." Holds 4 fingers up lmfao 😂. Love it!

Class video mate!
You know he be playing those grooves with passion if his whole face is just as pink as the pink sheet that is next to him.
that first beat at 180 bpm is my all time favorite beat..
yeH many great punk bands had songs with that particular beat.
Very excellent video
Appreciate it!
Love it ! Ill stick around 🤟🏻
I always enjoyed the F.Y.P. drum beat. Especially from Dance my Dunce.
I love the coke bust poster in the back bruh
Love it! Great clip! You are officially the least annoying TH-cam drummer!
Hahaha thank you!
good presentation and good chops!!!

the reverse fast beat seems simple but it sure as hell gets the adrenaline going at 180bpm

Hello Tommy i use your drumming to my guitar...i Hope doesnt bothers you...i thank you for your perfect play. Maybe we can make some shorts together?
#5 is what automatically comes to mind when I think of Punk drumming! those up beats. I am not a drummer, but to me this sounds really difficult
THanks man helpful video
Thanks for watching!
darn...I was hoping to see if it were even possible to do that last one at 180bpm! :)

Def should’ve included that! I’ll have to make another video I guess lol
1st one is a D beat.
The dbeat is really similar to beat 1. The kick and snare are the same but the hi hat follows the kick instead of doing steady 8th notes

oh shit it's the drummer of gouge away just being my favorite again
Aren't they mostly 4ths with the right hand? The first 2 videos.
Jup
At the pace it's at, reverse beat 3, and it's pretty much a goregrind drum beat lol.
Which K’s are you using here? I really like those crashes!
Hola lo podrías explicar más lento muchas gracias son muy buenas tus enseñanzas
I always called them. “2-step parts.” Lol
Beat 3 is called a "tu-pa beat" or a "pogo beat" if you're an old man.
Cool! Never heard the term tu-pa beat until now but I like it!
