DJ Spooky & Dave Lombardo - Drums of Death

"Check it like this: the drum is universal - it doesn't matter if it's hip-hop, drum n bass or thrash metal - it's all about that beat."
-DJ Spooky That Subliminal Kid

Drums of Death is the brainchild of DJ Spooky That Subliminal Kid and Dave Lombardo from Slayer, both heavyweights in their own right. Two years in the making, the music on Drums of Death is what transpired when these two incredible musicians decided to see what one of the world's best DJs could do with beats supplied by the best thrash metal drummer of all time. They also tapped some of their other talented friends, including Chuck D from Public Enemy and legendary Living Colour guitarist Vernon Reid, along with Jack Danger/Meat Beat Manifesto on co-production duties with DJ Spooky.

"Me and Dave Lombardo flip beats to a different drummer - that's what this project is about: rhythm dialog, building bridges between scenes and styles. Flippin' the script always means there's new vocabularies to be explored, and we're just making up a new language as we go...Slayer was one of the only rock bands on early Def Jam, and they influenced my style. Dave's drumming wasmad rugged, and he was the rhythm unit. Like the illest live band in hip-hop, The Roots, has Q?est-love as their rhythm section, Slayer has Dave. Think of this as a dialog about that kind of cultural collision"
-DJ Spooky That Subliminal Kid
