While classical composers were already writing with odd time signatures in the early 20th century, pop\/rock and jazz musicians began incorporating them into their music beginning in the mid-to-late 1950s. Since then, many legendary recordings in odd times have been released and have become household names in the drumming world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This article will cover 21 Legendary Odd-Time Grooves that every drummer should know. The grooves on this list span nearly five decades and cover styles ranging from alternative rock and soundtrack music to jazz, grunge, and progressive metal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This list was created by surveying the Drumeo community and other social media communities, and then narrowed down by several pro drummers. See if your favorite grooves made the list as we count down from number 21!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>21. \u201cParanoid Android\u201d \u2013 Radiohead<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This groove is played by Philip Selway on the song \u201cParanoid Android\u201d, which was released on Radiohead\u2019s <em>OK Computer<\/em> record in 1997. While there is another 7\/4 hi-hat groove that Selway plays following the second chorus of the song, this particular ride cymbal groove is featured near the end of the third verse, right before the guitar solo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.musora.com\/musora-cdn\/image\/quality=85\/https:\/\/drumeoblog.s3.amazonaws.com\/beat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/03185239\/21-Legendary-Odd-Time-Grooves-1.png\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>20. \u201cTimes Like These\u201d \u2013 Foo Fighters<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Taylor Hawkins played this 7\/4 groove during the intro of \u201cTimes Like These\u201d which was released on the 2002 Foo Fighters record <em>One By One<\/em>.
