    What are your favorite custom songs to play? Most fun, most technical, most challenging, whatever….

    #464669

    Converge – All We Love We Leave Behind

    BTBAM – Swim to the Moon

    Mastodon – Quintessence and Capillarian Crest

    King Crimson – 21st Century Schizoid Man

    Camel – Nimrodel/Procession/The White Rider

    Genesis – Firth of Fifth

    Alexisonfire – No Transitory

     

    Off the top of my head. Mostly prog stuff.

    Dream Theater – Panic Attack & Pull Me Under ( anything from DT will always be a challenge on drums )

    Rush – All of 2112 & then some !! Neil Peart ( one of the best in the biz still rocking today )

    Led Zeppelin – Moby Dick ( anything with Jon Bonham.) Some would say best rock drummer ever ? I agree :rock:

    Judas Priest – Painkiller ( A good warm up song gets the blood pumping :haw: )

    King Crimson – 21st Century Schizoid Man ( Always a favorite of mine )

    Metallica – Any song. ( Lars is great and on the difficult side to follow at times at least for me )

     

    Anything with a good beat is ok with me. I like all kinds of music !! <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” />

    I was just thinking of Peart the other day and how he is hailed as one of the greats. I admit I had no Rush, but I just grabbed a bunch! I am more of a Travis Barker fan myself. I stick mostly to Pop Punk and New Wave/Post-Hardcore/Screamo type stuff, but I am wanting to expand my collection with some fun and challenging stuff. I do have all the Metallica songs and I grabbed Moby Dick, sounds sick!

     

    I love Swim to the Moon, but couldn’t find it. Maybe I am not searching well enough?

    Mastodon – Last Baron. This song is insanely fun to play. Mastodon songs are always my favorites, but this is my favorite Mastodon song, ergo, all-time favorite to play. =P

    Neil Peart ( one of the best in the biz still rocking today )

     

     

    Neil Peart retired late last year.

    Right here, man. It probably isn’t in the database since this was released before the database was created, and the author has been inactive for some time.

      He didn’t. He said touring is too much.

      Oh wow, I didn’t realize there were releases here that weren’t in the database. Now to spend hours sifting through them all. Thanks! :-P

      Although not a custom, move along by the All-American Rejects is super fun, I would definitely recommend picking that song up from the music store. They throw in disco beats, paradiddles, and unique drum beats that is ridiculously fun.

      I play on the Wii, so the amount of stuff I have access to is pretty limited. I think I have that AAR song though. I will give it another shot.

        They throw in paradiddles because the chart is plain wrong, it’s been driving me mad since its release. <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif”> The entire song is played with a simple alternating sticking on a drumset, while in game it becomes this nonsensical technical exercise that doesn’t remotely resemble the original part.

         

        Ranting over, you can all move along now. <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_biggrin.gif”>

        I actually didn’t know that. I always thought it seemed uncharacteristically technical for a band like that.
