Here ya go chubbers. The next episode of showcasing all ya'lls sexy work: Stay tuned for the next forger!
Nothing about AC/DC drumming changes any game, not even back then. "The Who" had some game changing drumming for there time and Rush had game changing drumming. Not AC/DC. You don't have to have boring drums to let guitars shine through.
I agree that you don't need boring drumming to allow the guitar to shine, but in the end, every instrument should serve the song. It all depends on what kind of music you're playing. This is a good video that sums up my view.
Sure - however, given the style of music that AC/DC focused on, it works incredibly well. As far as The Who is concerned, their songwriting is almost the same for every song - Quadrophenia in particular has what amounts to one 35-minute long (with mild variation on the) 1 - 4 - 5 - 4 / 1 - minor 6 format. Even Tommy (the album I listened to over and over again while finishing Halo 2 and 3) suffers from this, but they both work really well because they were gong for concept and opera albums, respectively. Same for AC/DC, because their brand of rock n roll is just a straight ahead, humming V8 motor with chrome detailing, fins, and a hood ornament (Angus), and their hits are representative of this - they do try and experiment every once in a while, but they famously had to stop playing one song at live shows because it was too slow. Not to mention how stale their most recent album was - not enough gas in the engine to rev enough and switch gears. *edit* The gamechanger spam was meant mostly in jest because the drum fill adds one single beat to the whole song - that would be like chirping 2nd gear in the car analogy.
I wouldn't say that Quadrophenia "suffers" from its tendencies, I would say the album is actually all the better for it. It's one of the most profound pieces of music I've ever listened to, and I still listen to songs individually with similar effect. Looking at music like this from a theoretical perspective has its uses, but in the end, it's an all too objective way to go about judging a completely subjective topic.
It wasn't just The Who's records, but the live performances. Neil Peart though, he was ahead of his time. His drumming sounds like it belongs in our current era but it was written 30-40 years ago.
Yeah agreed, that was more word choice based on the apparent qualms regarding repetitive musical elements - that's more or less what I cleared up in saying that it works because it's a concept album. Exactly, because both of them were 'playing for the music' - The Who is basically just 4 guys riffing on very similar skiffle-rock song structures, which require a bit of differentiation, and Rush was going for a space-age complexity and a pushing of the rock medium. Very simplified explanation, but you get the picture.
Oh God I'm far too much of a ***** to actually mean anything hurtful haha, just trying to be a big boy
all of you faggots better play the destiny 2 beta today and then get doom and play that the rest of the weekend faggots

Btw Angus Young lives pretty close to me. He build a mansion with his Dutch wife in a kinda rural village not far away.

Dropped Destiny immediately after House of Wolves but within 2 minutes the aiming feels better than H5.
