Ghosts (The Marked Men Album)
''Ghosts'' is the fourth studio album by the Denton, Texas punk rock band The Marked Men, released January 27, 2009 by Dirtnap Records. Like their previous albums, the band recorded, produced, and mixed it themselves in a converted shed in their hometown of Denton. The album received positive reviews from critics, with most noting that its speed and the brevity of most of the songs necessitated repeat listens in order to notice its more intricate qualities. Bryne Yancey of Punknews.org remarked that "there's so much going on underneath the surface of these songs that once all the intricacies hit your ears, it might cause you to wonder aloud if anyone else who's not in the band notices them. Sure, anyone can ''listen'' to the Marked Men, but to ''hear'' them is a completely different experience." Luke Jackson of '' Alternative Press'' noted "To be perfectly honest, ''Ghosts'' won't grab you at first. Sure, they're a band playing loud, fast, and exceptionally tight, but the pop- ...

Drummer
A drummer is a percussionist who creates music using drums. Most contemporary western bands that play rock, pop, jazz, or R&B music include a drummer for purposes including timekeeping and embellishing the musical timbre. The drummer's equipment includes a drum kit (or "drum set" or "trap set"), which includes various drums, cymbals and an assortment of accessory hardware such as pedals, standing support mechanisms, and drum sticks. Particularly in the traditional music of many countries, drummers use individual drums of various sizes and designs rather than drum kits. Some use only their hands to strike the drums. In larger ensembles, the drummer may be part of a rhythm section with other percussionists playing. These musicians provide the timing and rhythmic foundation which allow the players of melodic instruments, including voices, to coordinate their musical performance. Some famous drummers include: Max Roach, Ringo Starr (The Beatles), John Bonham (Led Zepp ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
