Video: J Mascis Demonstrates Classic Punk Drum Beats

As you may have already heard, J Mascis of Dinosaur Jr. is set to launch a new reverb shop tomorrow that's stocked with all sorts of awesome guitars, pedals, amps, and drums.

When we had J by to give us the skinny on all the gear he's parting with, he took some time to take his sparkle purple C&C kit out for one last spin, treating us to a review of some of his favorite drum beats.

Most Dinosaur fans will recall that J actually started as a drummer in his '80s hardcore days, and the fundamentals of the punk beat canon very much remain part of his arsenal. Take a look at the video above for a quick drum lesson from J, and stay tuned for the launch of his official Reverb shop tomorrow.
