ABOUT THIS DRUM PART

How to play Entombed on drums

68 bars, 4:11, at 65 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.

67 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet.

The beat

The beat the song is built on is a 2-bar phrase, played through bars 5-8, 23-26 and 40-42, and 2 more places -- 32.6% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

What the course does

It cuts the song into 22 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.

  1. The grooves the song is built on -- B -- 1 exercise, about 15 minutes.
  2. The grooves the song is built on -- H -- 1 exercise, about 19 minutes.
  3. The grooves the song is built on -- M -- 4 exercises, about 27 minutes.

Questions

What BPM is Entombed?

65 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.

Is Entombed hard to play on drums?

67 out of 100: demanding, mostly on the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 54 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.

How long is the drum part?

68 bars, about 4:11 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 22 exercises over 8 sittings, about 23 minutes each.

What do I need on the kit?

crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.

How many fills are in Entombed?

5 fills to learn, played 9 times: bars 31, 47, 51, 57, 58, 59 and 3 more.
