 * I will get this page going by talking about one of the music industries most skilled Metal drummers of today. Chris Adler, known for playing drums in Lamb of God, is by any standard very skilled at what he does, i recommend for any drummer, whether they are into Metal or not to take time to listen to some of the bands songs and hear how he adds his own unique touch to each song, but doing it in such a way that it is recodnised as complex and of a very high standard, yet not recodnised as a form of showing off, because this is definately not the case. One thing that Chris Adler likes to add into Lamb of Gods songs, as with many other Metal drummers, is a complex double bass pedal technique. He has devoleped his own double pedal technique, using long board pedals and a "whipping" motion with his foot (as shown in the video below), which was not created by Chirs Adler, but developed for his own needs. His double pedal work is rarely just straight semiquavers, he likes to use any kind of rhythm in the bass that will compliment what work he is doing with the rest of the kit. However, his playing is not only about his double pedal work, he has an incredible rhythmic sense, as you will probably notice in the videos. At the end of the tuition video Chris Adler shows us how he plays the fairly complex drum fill in one of Lamb of Gods songs "Ruin". The songs itself contains unusual time signatures and a couple of time changes. Ive put the video for the song Ruin underneath the tuition video but I recommend that you download this song, or go out and buy it if you want to take a better listen to his drumming in the song. Enjoy.**
