    well, i think hard songs are song that deals basically with off counting. Songs like wind of the naruto cartoon and so on. if u wanna learn it, just try to figure out the basic because for every off counting beat, there ius still the basics.

    i think that led zeppilen songs are semi hard but easy, hard songs that i find hard would be a couple of the slipknot songs maybe a few avenged sevenfold but the hardest ones i've encounterd so far would be the band LAMB OF GOD and Shadows Fall. they have INSANE!! double bass lines , fills , and cymbal work. check'em out, each of their singers suck but then again, i never liked singers

    actually all Chris Addler really has going for him is his insane speed...Chris and Niles drummer ...Derek something...are insanely fast but mainly thats all it is....not saying they suck or anything cause their like 4x the drummer i am...but all their stuff sounds the same...especially L.O.G.s Ashes of the wake cd......shadows fall...i dunno i havent really heard them and dragonforce the only thing i heard by them was their cover of "the emerald"
    sorry if this offends ya but several of their songs are hard because of the speed involed

    another hard song is " the glass prison" by Dream theater

    The songs pretty easy
    the intro is simply flams(I think) on every beat, then bass on the "E's" and the "A's"and sloshy hats on the "and's". soooo, ka boom sis boom ka boom sis boom ka boom sis boom ka boom sis boom LOL, or for 4 measures.the ka's are snare, sis are hats, and booms are bass.

    Beyond that i cannot explain through words, or maybe i could, but im too lazy!!

    I can play Under A Glass Moon....close enough? lol.....I can do a lot of the Neil Peart stuff ( a band i was in a few years ago used to do Limelight, Red Barchetta..i can play YYZ, but i cant find a bass player who can do it)....and i can do some of the Dream Theater stuff...but the hardest I find to play, personally, is Tool. Danny Carey is....what can i say......brilliant.

    Damn good songs, damn hard to play.

    Smells Like A Teen Spirit is a relatively easy song to play, it's your standard "house" beat (snares on 2, a, e, 4) with quarter notes on the hats. The hardest part about the beat is the two bass drum beats between the e and 4 snares.

    Keep practicing though, you'll get it eventually,

    smells like teen spirit isn't a hard song but if ur having trouble with it just divide it up. just do the hi-hat and bass for a while, then do bass and snare, then snare and hi-hat. or just slow it down a lot. once u get it'll you'll be a decently better drummer. learning how to do a beat with just quarters on hi-hat and doin snare on 2,a,e , and 4 AND then doing all the bass on it is tough for a beginner. it took me pry 2 hours to get that song when i started a few years ago. just sit around and play it till u get it

    the hardest songs i no r pry System of a Down stuff

    I just listened to a couple of Godsmack songs then, and they seem achievable with a single pedal. I only listened to Awake and Speak though, depends on which song you want to learn I suppose.

    Good stuff.

    Straight out of line could be learnt without a double kicker as well, the part at the start is all toms with a 4 on the floor bass drum beat. Just watch the anticipated snare beats.

    I don't think Godsmack uses a Double Bass Pedal.I was looking at his Setup on Sabian,And it shows if he plays a Double Pedal,And he doesn't....
