Barking Spiders Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) ..I sure damn do. Dunno why but for me many songs are made by the cowbell. Here's some fine cowbell by the very great Clutch. BTW, if any of you peeps are yet to be initiated into the church of Clutch prepare for baptism... please post your fave cowbell moments. and lots of them!

Woodinblack Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I try and avoid cowbells. Litterally - our singer often goes for a cowbell session and when he has finished he just throws the cowbell down. It hurts if it hits you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caitlin Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 (edited) I'm generally suspicious of vocalists who suddenly want to be percussionists, but yer clutch man has some nice muting going on there. The correct location for a cowbell is here: \/ Edited October 10, 2019 by caitlin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuzzie Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 The best cowbell song hands down or if you see how quick they go live, probably cocaine fuelled https://youtu.be/5R-voFL4ZL8 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heathy Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 There was some serious cowbell abuse going on when I saw them do this live a couple of years back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh, they seem to be 'consumables' in so far as they can bend. You've not explored 'microphones' with this drummist have you? I mean they're a revolution in 'being heard without breaking your stuff' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
