Don't get mad. Get odd. If you're a drummer who's spent a lot of time getting 'even' by playing in 4 or 6, you can take your playing to the next level by opening yourself up to odd time signatures. As the longtime drummer of progressive metal act "The Devin Townsend Project", Ryan Van Poederooyen has been tasked with playing some seriously complicated drum parts. Take Devinā€™s 2011 record ā€œDeconstructionā€ for example. There are some intricate - not to mention long, songs on there. And to help him

If you like progressive metal drumming - or even prog rock and odd time playing -

Looking for a new and fun way to apply some of the worldā€™s most popular drumming exercises on the kit? šŸ¤Ø Stick Control by George Lawrence Stone is one of the most legendary drum books out there. If youā€™ve ever had a drum teacher, theyā€™ve either mentioned it or inadvertently shown you exercises from it. Millions (probably) of teachers and students have flipped through its pages since it was first published in 1935. Itā€™s the book that gets handed down from generation to generation. If you havenā€™t
