      Derrick Plourde 👍👍, my brother's and I got to hang out with Him when we saw them for the Hoss tour. He showed my brother and I the secret to his playing. My brother and I were heavily inspired by Dan Panic of Screeching Weasel and Aaron Comet Bus of Crimpshrine before we started listening to Lagwagon so we didn't understand how he played that fast because we'd never seen any videos because this was before the internet.

    Dude has an absolutely beautiful voice too. I think the two songs he sings on that Lemonheads record are the best ones.

      Yes! I feel like he sings backups on a lot of the records he engineers as well

    You're right. That snare in between the accents are perfect in that song. I could imagine Henry Rollins pointing the mic at the crowd pretending their gun shots haha.

    Remember actively trying to put your mouth to a microphone that other people have had in and around their mouth? Best times. Can’t wait to inadvertently kiss everyone again.

    Amazing video, hardcore definitely has the most unsung drumming heroes of any genre imo. Some other ones I feel never get the credit is Nik Woj from Cold World, Grant Hart from Husker Du, Benny from Sunami, Chris Moore from Cokebust, and Max Ward namely from Spazz.

    What’s up with the audio track of My War that you’re playing along with? It sounds like it’s been run through a pitch shifter and everything has been effectively down tuned, but the tempo of the song hasn’t been affected. Weird! Either way though, I first heard this album in 1993/1994, around the time I first got into punk. I’ve never stopped listening to it, and I just turned 40 in January. Been listening to punk for the majority of my life... Bill Stevenson is one of the absolute best drummers from that era of punk, hands down. I remember his work with the Descendents and Black Flag really well for the most part, and he really adds a lot to whatever band he’s drumming for. Awesome drummer who’s been in some of the greatest classic punk bands, IMO at least.

    • @PrettyCoolDrumShow
      @PrettyCoolDrumShow  3 роки тому +2

      Yup! I tried to avoid the algorithm by shifting down the song so it wouldn’t get taken down, but I don’t think it worked haha
