Drummers have found
that adding a cowbell
to their kit is probably the easiest way to get out
of the boring "drums and cymbals" rut. By mounting just
one cowbell on your drumkit, you have added enormous
texture and color possiblities to your sounds.
However, one question still remains - which
cowbell to pick, and where to put it? LP offers a
wide selection of cowbells, from the classic Black
Beauty Cowbell used by Peter
Erskine, to the Ridge Rider Cowbell used by Bobby
Rock. The possibilities are endless.
Below is a guide to cowbell use based on musical style.
This guide is only a list of possibilities, as each
drummer will want to customize their drumkit according
to which cowbells sound best with their style of music.
In the end, it is your musical taste which will dictate
which cowbell is right for you.
