Drumhead : Information for the Modern Drum Enthusiast

I've been picking up DRUMHEAD on the newsstands for over a year now, and I can tell you there's no finer mag out there for the serious or aspiring drummer. The usual articles are present on technique, but this one goes beyond all of that. How about regular health and fitness articles? It's here. Equipment reviews? They've got it and not just the major brands, but all the boutique percussion shops get press as well.

Everyone gets big players and does some kind of interview. These folks actually ask the right questions. Nothing about hair, or some off-stage gossip. The interviews are focused, informative and simply some of the best I've ever seen in this type of magazine.

If this is all you got, it would be plenty. But they include a CD(!) with every issue, with lessons, play-alongs and demos. Not some once-a-year trick to boost sales, every disc in each issue is useful.

DRUMHEAD has done such a good job, I'm hoping someone will take the hint in other instrument fields, or that a sister publication for guitar or keyboards will sprout. In any case, if you want to live and breath drums, this won't get you signed yeah right but it is a fine resource for drummers in all styles and at all levels. Check it out, see if you agree.

I subscribe to three American Drum Magazines, and purchase a British publication at a newstand. DRUMHEAD is by far the best of the four, which are all terrific magazines.

I have not found this magazine very interesting. The writing is poor and the content is relatively unenlightening. I've received two copies and both came through the mail ripped to shreds. If you are a jazz drummer, this magazine is not much use. I'm canceling my subscription.
