WAR PIGS - Black Sabbath - (Drum Cover) Adam Johnston
Музыка
War Pigs has been on my list to cover for a while. Bill Ward was a jazz drummer that found his place in a Heavy metal band. He had such a great approach to so many Sabbath songs but this one is my favorite.
What I did on this one was remove the original drum track and did my own interpretation of the song. This was a blast to do. Enjoy.
And thanks to my wife for her help with filming.
This was recorded (In the basement of my mothers house. jk) with Sennheiser mics, a 421 on the floor tom and RODE M3 on the Hi Hat. Mixed live through a 16 ch Mackie Mixer with a stereo output to a sound devices. Mastered and compressed with original track in Protools and edited in IMovie.

Very well done...Damn I love your snare sound...Wish I could tune mine that way.
Great song and flawlessly performed. First song I ever learned on guitar 🎸.
Great performance! I really enjoyed watching and listening to you play that song. Your fills, especially the tight rolls and triplets were awesome. Tough song to play perfect and you did!! Looks like you had fun playing it as well. Great job Adam!

Thanks so much Stephen. I did have fun playing this one. I got to do my own thing on many of the drum solo parts.
Awesome job Adam! Great work on this amazing song!
One of the first songs I learned to play... and not as well as I would like to play it. You rock!

Thanks so much Trey! This song has been on my list for a while now. I had a blast doing my own thing in some areas. I used Moises phone app to remove the drum track. What do you use to remove the drum track?

Thanks Jona! This was a fun one.
I noticed that on some of black sabbath songs the drums are heavy on the 1. it's almost like the whole band is heavy on the 1. I thought some parts of there songs were a bit funky. Like James Brown funky. I could be wrong. at about 2:13 they are slamming on the 1. Drummers, music teachers, cause it sounds too funky and I love it. Please someone let me know

Yes true. The one is very heavy with a big foot bass drum kick. It really sets the tone for the song.
Os covers são excelentes!!! Muito bem executados, gostei também dos improvisos.
Amazing! Truly amazing!

Thanks Graham! I made the drum less track through an app called Moises. It works pretty good but not great.
