DAN MOORE DRUMS

Conqueror Worm winds through several different odd time signatures, starting with a repeating 19/4 section followed by a measure of 17/8 and a measure of 15/8 that I play as a cadence on my second snare.  That shifts into a repeating phrase of five measures of 3/4 time that I play with a triplet-type feel, yet with a quarter note pulse played with my right hand through it all.  The song eventually gets to a tribal sounding, up-tempo driving 6/4 section for which I release the snares and play a skin-heavy pattern on the snare drum, winding up at a unique outro that closes the song.

Valkyrlok represents a much groovier version of Kilgore Trout's repertorie. The song follows a fairly straightforward bass line played over two measures of 5/8 while I play more of a 5/4 feel over the top.  Structured horn and guitar harmonies are present throughout with featured solos for trumpet and guitar.  Ironically, Valkyrlok was one of our most danceable songs despite it being in an odd time signature.
