Bat Country Drum Track

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

The most amazing thing about this isn’t just the technicality, but the fact you can practically hear the entire song from just the drums alone. His drum composition skills were off the charts.

[nirmalpaul]

them ghost notes. This guy was a beast.

[csomera]

If you listen to this with head phones at full volume, the bass is absolutely AMAZING! foREVer

[inuyashanick]

the first time i heard this song, years ago, i thought he was playing a solo the whole song. now that i have heard the drum track, im sure.

[metalmoshingmad]

The Rev really new how to be creative with drum fills. He was an insanely talented drummer that will be missed...

[MartinBellamyMBDrums]

This drum track will never get old. Such an inspiration. So many unique fills and grooves

[JonnyRottenn__]

I feel like the bell/china pattern in the solo is so overlooked. It’s one of my favorite beats to play. And the simple fill in the outro too. In a song loaded with difficult fills, that one at 4:52 is so tasteful.

[TheCypherSpeed]

The Rev is god of the drums. Epic drum track

[Kurtastrophy]

A song doesn't necessarily have to have vocals to be good enough for a song. As much as I enjoy Shadow's singing, im perfectly entertained with just the drum track. Personal preference though. Regardless, I see the point your trying to make

[rafaelmatoso]

The Rev, Deus da bateria. A linha é uma melodia em si, coisa que pouquíssimos conseguiram alcançar em suas músicas.

[mixxypixxie]

I wasn't even looking at the name of the song when I walked back into my room and I instantly knew it was Bat Country and started to sing along!

[tt]

Tracks like this that made the rev a legend .

[mattg]

One of the grooviest metal drummers. What a shame he had to catch a new gig.

[andrewhassell]

02:49 Off all the covers I’ve seen nobody seems to get this fill right.

[MrArska]

HELL YEAH!! I wish that I can play drums like The Rev!! Amazing!!

[BlackMaria]

2:03 ohh no here comes the St. Anger snare

[invisible.]

He who makes a beast out of himself
Gets rid of the pain of being a man

Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay
I tried to drive all through the night
The heat stroke ridden weather, the barren empty sights
No oasis here to see, the sand is singing deathless words to me

Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
Too many doses, and I'm starting to get an attraction
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
No one can save me, and you know I don't want the attention

As I adjust to my new sights
The rarely tired lights will take me to new heights
My hand is on the trigger, I'm ready to ignite
Tomorrow might not make i, t but everything's all right
Mental fiction, follow me, show me what it's like to be set free

Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
Too many doses, and I'm starting to get an attraction
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
No one can save me, and you know I don't want the attention

So sorry you're not here
I've been chained too long, my vision's so unclear
Now take a trip with me
But don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem

Caught here in a fiery blaze, won't lose my will to stay
These eyes won't see the same after I flip today

Sometimes I don't know why we'd rather live than die
We look up towards the sky for answers to our lives
We may get some solutions, but most just pass us by
Don't want your absolution 'cause I can't make it right
I'll make a beast out of myself, yeah
Gets rid of all the pain of being a man

Can't you help me as I'm startin' to burn (all alone)
Too many doses, and I'm starting to get an attraction
My confidence is leaving me on my own (all alone)
No one can save me, and you know I don't want the attention

So sorry you're not here
I've been sane too long, my vision's so unclear
Now take a trip with me
But don't be surprised when things aren't what they seem

I've known it from the start
All these good ideas will tear your brain apart

Scared, but you can follow me
I'm too weird to live, but much too rare to die

[johnnybigmac]

I finally learned how to play this in its entirety, but I don't think I'll ever get it perfect because of those ghost notes. Dude was a god behind the kit! Wish he was still here. foREVer

[RevSullivan]

this drum track already enough to make it a good song :D

[syngates]

its the rev man lol, practice makes perfect
