Neil Peart

Rush · Precision and orchestration — every fill composed, every part earning its place

Peart treats the kit as an orchestra: huge tom movements, deliberate cymbal choices, ride bell patterns and snare-to-tom phrasing, all written with the same care as the riffs and lyrics around them.

  • Composed fills that repeat exactly the same way every time
  • Cymbal orchestration — choosing the right cymbal for each accent
  • Odd meters played with total rock-steady precision

The song is the boss. Everything I play has to serve it.
