The Drum Wars book and included digital download components takes the drum solos of Carmine and Vinny Appice, and breaks them down into easily digestible sections.

By viewing the included video footage of the solos at 100%, 75% and 50% of their normal speed, students can see, hear, and thoroughly understand each section. With the addition of the enhanced MP3 files, each solo is presented to the student with the clearest sound, even at slower speeds.

In the book, each section of the solos is notated and explained, and also comes with foundational patterns that will help students learn the recorded solo patterns slowly. A complete transcription of each solo is also included for students and drum instructors.

REALISTIC DOUBLE FEET can be performed on a double bass drum set or a regular drum set with foot one playing the bass
drum and foot two playing the hi-hat.
The book is grouped into twelve parts; each covering a specific rhythmic concept. At the end of each part there is an eight or twelve
bar solo study. These studies combine all of the rhythms learned in the exercises and will give you the feel of playing the rhythms side
by side.
