Because it's 420 my local rock station played Tom Petty you don't know how it feels this morning. I don't think I've noticed how simple this drum track was before.

A very simple one is "Clocks" by Coldplay. It's literally just mirroring the piano line.

I like the drums in "Who Will Save Your Soul", they're so bare except for that one big buh-dum-tish near the beginning.

I really enjoy when someone plays an acoustic song and just taps on the side of their guitar. :arrow:

It's too bad I'm out of the country when you're here. I'd invite you over. Make you banana pancakes, pretend like it's the weekend now.

Modern Girl - Sleater Kinney, has to be one of the most simple things Janet Weiss has ever played.

That band had a lot of songs with simple drum tracks, didn't they?

That one's got some tricky hi-hat / snare stuff going on coming out of the chorus.

Im a huge fan of a quick "boom chuck". Simple yet effective. Sleek yet vigilante.
