Is it possible to make a crust/hardcore/street punk band with out drums?

Freak · 26 augusti 2023

Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to do that, because I'm trying to make a band, but I don't know any person who plays drums, so I would like to know if it's possible to make a band without them

I don't think so. Post a request for band members on your local relevant website or something like that.

Yeah I Would Keep Looking For A Drummer. Find A Scene, Walk The Streets, Ask Around,
Check Posted Billings. And Yes You May Find Your Drummer Performing right On The
Street live For You. I'll Never Forget Visiting New Orleans, Walking Down Bourban Street,
And Heard A Number Of Kids Pounding On Make-Shift Drum Kits. Some Of Them Were
REALLY GOOD. Point Being, Check All Possibilities. aint ashamed

anything is possible... i assume you're not talking about using beat boxing, samples, or a drum machine? so try jamming with guitar, bass, and vocals and see what comes out. maybe use the bass grooves and rhythm guitar to set the tempo. a lot of screamed vocals are very rhythmic anyway too, so there will be some percussive sounds happening, altho this is a pretty "experimental" approach, especially for a genre like "street punk," but stranger things have happened. n ecessity is the mother of invention.

but a lot of bands have also started out by just asking somebody with no experience whatsoever to bang on pots, pans, boxes, trash cans, whatever, until they were able to find/afford drums... just saying.

I think you can do a punk band without drums, I think the music genre heavily uses bass and guitar and it really hides the drums if their even there
