Built for players who want to hear the groove more clearly and get to practice without detours.

Slipknot - Custer (Audio)

About this version

Some drum parts make sense on paper and still feel odd under your hands. This version is for closing that gap a bit faster.

Useful for

working on groove and feel

Useful for

cleaning up fills and transitions

Useful for

repeating the section before the section that usually goes wrong

A simple way in

A version for hearing the groove, fills, and transitions more clearly while keeping the shape of the original song intact.

Start with the tricky section, not the whole song. A few good repetitions usually tell you more than one rushed pass from top to bottom.

Once it feels settled, go back to the full arrangement and check whether it still holds together. That is usually where the real answer is.

It’s strange; whenever I see a gun, I think about just how petty you are And it blows my fucking mind- it blows my fucking mind These days, I never seem to get enough. I’m tired of this shit- I want to go home Don’t waste my fucking time- don’t waste my fucking time Because anything exceptional gets crushed by common people With jealousy and ignorance and all their common evils This planet isn’t special- collections made of clay I’m waiting for the punishment I know is on my way So cut/cut/cut me up and fuck/fuck/fuck me up CUT/CUT/CUT ME UP AND FUCK/FUCK/FUCK ME UP Irreverence is my disease- it’s second hand but you know me The Son of a Bitch is on his knees- the Last Man Standing gets no pity Somewhere on a toilet wall, I read the words ‘You FORM A LINE to FORMALIZE the FORMER LIES’ and I finally saw the truth Something so profound and it was sitting there, surrounded by The garbage and the stains- another victim of the refuse Now I’ve been saying this for years but you don’t comprehend it I fight hell and I fight fear because I understand it Androgyny and insults- you try so hard to be difficult You want to win the war? Know what you’re fighting for. Cut/cut/cut me up and fuck/fuck/fuck me up CUT/CUT/CUT ME UP AND FUCK/FUCK/FUCK ME UP Irreverence is my disease- it’s second hand but you know me The Son of a Bitch is on his knees- the Last Man Standing gets no pity With Angel eyes and Demon seeds- you’re missing what you really need When all is said and done, you see- the Last Man Standing gets no pity Cut/cut/cut me up and fuck/fuck/fuck me up CUT/CUT/CUT ME UP AND FUCK/FUCK/FUCK ME UP
