I just listened to all of "Drumgasm" and I highly highly recommend it. It is a 40 minute recording of Janet Weiss banging on the drums with Zach Hill (Hella/Death Grips) and Matt Cameron (Pearl Jam) and it is just awesome.
I love how this is really representative of their respective drumming styles. Like, Sara has never been about proper drum 'fills', just seriously cool off-beat rhythms.
Oh my god I've been listening to unwound and you can imagine my shock when I found out the drummer was female (I'm a female myself) Wow. You don't come across many awesome female drummers which is unfortunate but when you do it's amazing!
I'm sorry I wasn't clear enough for you. I meant to state, if they were both in a band together it would be sick. There are bands with two drummers and it's pretty awesome. Since you're so keen on research, I'll leave you to it. I love Unwound & I did look up Janet Weiss after watching this video, which lead to my discovery of Sleater Kinney. Have a nice day dude. ;)
I know it's been eleven years but I was introduced to this because I heard a joke in an archer episode, looked it up and found a reddit thread. Then I read through that and found a link to the bobs burgers sleater-kinny video etc etc. Anyways she's a badass fucking drummer and I just thought it was weird how two people from completely different times could come across the same video from completely opposite places.
Man, I think they should have made this more like a rap battle where each drummer goes one at a time so you can actually hear the differences between them, but hey, that's just me. Anyway, I really like Janet's drumming, but wish she played for a band with more nuanced music than Sleater and Wild.
Janet woulda been a great replacement for Jimmy Chaimberlain when he left Smashing Pumpkins. Maybe she would have made the music not suck so much as it does now.
I think they both lost this drum battle...This has got to be one of the saddest “drum battles” I’ve literally ever heard. I know double amputees who can play drums better that these two. This was just two chicks banging senselessly on drums...
One of my all-time favorite videos ever. Sometimes I just drop in on UA-cam because this makes me feel so happy.

YES! It's a meeting of 3 brilliant drummers. So good!
will check it out. Cheers

Also emphasises just how powerful Janet is lol she fuckin' slams that shit
HOW COOL. I've known Sara since she was less than 12 years old living in Bloomington, IN.
Sara took lessons from Kenny Arnoff, who started off with John Cougar's band and has played with a lot of great bands since.
I’d love to see Janet have a drum battle against Animal from the Muppets!
i love how they come together and vibe

Facts!!!
Please the world needs more female drummers keep going
there's tons of them, they just aren't talked about enough
I'm a fan of Janet's fan-it enhances the wild storminess of her percussive prowess.
I love Sara's cow bell part. Reminds me of a M'Boom song.
This is beautiful
oh my how tired u two mustve been- this is stamina defined- thank you both for killing it!

my immediate thought was that they should start a two-drummer band together

These are a couple of the raddest Ladies of Drum
Janet, hands down.
Sara!
Janet has more fills but Sara is playing cleaner and has better technique. Better efficiency of movement and a softer touch. Both amazing.
A drummer from Unwound meets another drummer from Sleater-Kinney
If this is a real battle Janet won.
nothing cute about that that's just awesome
Sexy tho.
Goddesses. 💛☀️🖖🏼
unwound
Awesome!
Ever happen to notice a video in the list of suggestions and think '...hell YES I would like to see that'?
unwound.
Unwound.
that time change .magnificent
If they were both drummers for a band that would be sick.
you know they were both in bands right? legendary alt bands
'Tis a fine drum duet...but sure 'tis no drum battle. Arrrrrrrr....
Janet !!!
Janet is Queeeeeeeen
4:09 I hear some All Souls Day there
What is it about female drummers that is so awesome? I want more of them.
Least it looks like their having fun!
Sure :)
these 2 seem to be mimicking each other.neither is really challenging the other with the skills they have.
Man, I think they should have made this more like a rap battle where each drummer goes one at a time so you can actually hear the differences between them, but hey, that's just me. Anyway, I really like Janet's drumming, but wish she played for a band with more nuanced music than Sleater and Wild.
anyghost She played on some awesome Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks records, and Quasi are incredible live.
Quasi rule
she played on one of The Go Betweens later records, nothing like Sleater-Kinney
José Medeles !
both girls played drums for corin tucker in two different bands.
know who?
Yep. Sarah in Corin Tucker Band and Janet in Sleater Kinney :)
+miked4309 Maybe Corin was like BATTLE FOR MY AMUSEMENT!
at about the six-minute mark they just handling it
Janet woulda been a great replacement for Jimmy Chaimberlain when he left Smashing Pumpkins. Maybe she would have made the music not suck so much as it does now.
anyghost YESSSSSS!!!!!
Right on.
I'm all about Swans ;)
And she's going to play with Zach Hill?
janet w and sara l... how disrespectful...
"MORE COWBELL"
Her jiggling is almost hypnotic...
I no that what I am about to say is wrong, it reminds me of the buddy rich vs gean Krupa drum battle
Janet was with Sleater Kinney, Quasi, and Wild Flag.
Sara drums for Unwound.
Do some research before you post dumb comments, pal.
A click bait best 50 drummer list brought me here. Zzzz.
C'mon Sara, let loose a little...
Christopher Walken wouldn't approve!
+mishel1005 Not enough cowbell!
cumshotfeminist22 haha not even remotely enough!
LOVE IT!!! SEXY DRUM SOLOS AND BOUNCING CLEAVAGE YEAH! ROCK ON!!!
I think they both lost this drum battle...This has got to be one of the saddest “drum battles” I’ve literally ever heard. I know double amputees who can play drums better that these two. This was just two chicks banging senselessly on drums...
Says the drum guy with 6 subscribers. Okay dude.
You don't know nothing.
