Songs where the drums punch you in the chest

Vanilla Fudge - "You Keep Me Hanging On" (Carmine..)
The Who - "Bargain" (Keith Moon.)
Led Zeppelin - "No Quarter" / "Achilles Last Stand" / "Good Times, Bad Times" (every Led Zeppelin song.)
Kiss - "Creatures of the Night" (Any Eric Carr, really...Ludwig Drums.)
Rush - "Natural Science" / "Anthem"
Guns N' Roses - "Think About You"

I could go on forever......

 

Tom Petty - "You Don't Know How It Feels"
Slayer - The entire "Reign in Blood" album
Celtic Frost - "Necromantical Screams"
Yes - "The Calling"

 

​

"Mystery To Me" is my all time favorite Fleetwood Mac album, I listen to it often![/quote]
I think so, and was glad to read in a recent interview that Christine McVie agrees with the two of us

 

As always going with the familiar for me,
one playing right now.

Dave Brubeck Quartet's "Take Five".

 

CCR-Sweet Hitchhiker(mono)

 

Fleetwood Mac - World Turning

 

If you want whole albums then Physical Graffiti takes the biscuit.

 

Beat Box - Art Of Noise

 

Imo best drum sound is to be found on Rumours, SH/KG mastering at 45,
Little Feat Waiting for Columbas especially opening tracks and Spainish Moon,
Genesis Seconds Out and John Bonham full stop especially on the Classic 45s.

Also Simple Minds Don't forget About me and Alive and Kicking. Mel Gaynor was one hell of a drummer.

 

Yes Little Feat were good, love the bass guitar as well. Don't find Rumours that special but maybe because I only have the original LP/cd.

 

Slayer-Angel of Death

 

Yeah, that track is so cool! Drums sound wonderful there. I think Andy Partridge has even said he believes 'Nonsuch' is their best-engineered album.

A guilty pleasure of mine is 'Adult Education' by Hall & Oates. First part of the song is drum programming, but right after the bridge some massive gated compressed drums come pounding out of the speakers. Mixed by Bob Clearmountain...it's epic 80s at its best.

Can also mention Band On The Run by Paul McCartney & Wings. Heavy bass guitar and kick drum.

 

THE LOSER IN THE END by QUEEN

 

Walk Like A Man - The Four Seasons

 

I just found his 1st one on vinyl, and it kicks. I've got in spinning now and I was just thinking how good the drums sound. The kick hits you right in the chest. Great album.

 

Sandy Nelson's 1961's "Let There Be Drums"! Punch in the gut drumming!

 

XTC, Making Plans for Nigel

 

Ozzy Osbourne-'No More Tears' album.

 

Especially when your speakers have 15" woofers like the ones I have.

 

The End -The Doors DCC Gold
Gets me every time

 

Edgar Winter Group - Frankenstein

My favorite drum test track.

 

Lust For Life - Iggy Pop

 

good choice could also add do you love me
