		Brooks Wackerman (born Tuesday, February 15, 1977) is the newest drummer for Bad Religion and the younger brother of Chad Wackerman (a session drummer who once played with Frank Zappa).
		This later led to becoming the drummer for Suicidal Tendencies from circa 1994 to 2002.
		He is the first-choice substitute for Vandals drummer Josh Freese, due to Freese's committments with groups such as A Perfect Circle and Devo, to name a few.

	Greg's Religion- Brooks Wackerman (drums: 2001-)
		Brooks has been drumming in professional gigging and recording bands since he was literally abut 10 years old.
		Before joining BR, Brooks spent some years in "Suicidal Tendencies"; and built a very solid rep. When Bobby was unexpectedly forced to leave, the sessions BR had booked for the new album turned into auditions for new drummers.
		From hearing Brooks on TPOB and even more so for those of us who've seen him live, I'm sure you'll agree with me that he is one of the most incredible drummers of our time and an awesome churner of fast, solid beats, Punk drumming at it's greatest!

	Bad Religion News - Brooks playing drums for Avril (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Brooks is a very good drummer, and if he likes Avril's music and wants to be a part of it, than that's fine.
		Sure Brooks is still the new guy in BR, and maybe we all haven't gotten used to him, but face it, he's the best drummer BR has had yet, and all around he's probably one of the best drummers I've ever heard.
		Brooks is still pretty young and hasn't been with BR for that long so he's probably not making tons of money.

		The key here is drummer Brooks Wackerman, who plays a painfully simple punk beat but laces it with quick fills and impressive work around the toms to make it fresh and exciting.
		Wackerman once again works around a simple beat and makes it more interesting with his quick fills around the kit, and is backed by Jay Bentley's quick and intricate basslines.
		Brooks Wackerman's drumming is once again excellent, as he kicks in some simple but awesome fills that bridge the gaps between Graffin's vocals.

	Brooks Wackerman: Artist Update: Modern Drummer Magazine 04/02/2006
		On Empire Strikes First, Brooks Wackerman’s second album with LA punk legends Bad Religion, the drummer says he finally had the chance to throw his band “some curve balls.” According to Wackerman, “For Process Of Belief, my first Bad Religion record, they’d already written the material, and most of the ideas were blueprinted.
		What also distinguishes Bad Religion’s sound is Wackerman’s insane double bass drumming—highlighted by 32nd notes that continue for sixteen bars on the album’s opener, “Sinister Rouge.” Frankly, that style of drumming has more to do with speed metal than modern punk rock.
		Brooks is also the first drummer to use a double pedal on a Bad Religion album.

	DRUMMERWORLD OFFICIAL DISCUSSION FORUM - Brooks Wackerman
		Ever heard of Brooks Wackerman drummer in Bad Religion and brother to Chad Wackerman.
		I saw Brooks play with Bad Religion a few years ago, right when they released Process of Belief after their old drummer had to leave because of a rotator cuff problem.
		Brooks is definitely a sick drummer, he's brought some really cool stuff to to punk drumming recently.

		Originally slated for a fall 2001 release, the band received bad news earlier in the year when drummer Bobby Schayer developed shoulder problems that forced him to retire from playing drums professionally.
		Brooks is able to play the fastest drum beats, but he's incredibly meticulous as well.
		In Bad Religion, we've always had a history of having song structures that were more sophisticated than the average punk band--that's what we wanted to do--but we had been frustrated at different times in our career, because we weren't really able to elaborate on song structures and embellish them with a nice rhythm section.

		Still we are pleasantly surprised by seeing Brooks Wackerman there and finding out he will be playing that nights show for The Vandals and Josh Freese is taking over tomorrow.
		Brooks is a really cool guy and an amazing drummer (many of you know him as Bad Religion's drummer), most bands are lucky if they find one great drummer, The Vandals have two amazing ones.

	PROGRESSIVEWORLD.NET: REVIEWS BY STEPHANIE SOLLOW
		Oh, there are drums solos to be sure -- the comp's closer "Pull Up My Sleeve" is nothing but drums and percussion - two sets of them in fact, mastered by Stephen Perkins and Brooks Wackerman (a truly amazing study of what can be done with drums and imagination) -- but...
		Most of the pieces tend toward jazzier, fusiony realms; Bozzio's contribution "A Glimpse Into A Deeply Disturbed Mind" and Tim Alexander and Brain's "Shut Up And Play Your Drums" are not so easily definable.
		Stanton Moore's "Sprung Monkey" is a brassy piece featuring Ben Ellman on baritone sax and the Lil Rascals Brass Band Horns - Dewan Scott on trumpet, Jeffery Hills on tuba, Glen David Andrews on trombone, Corey Henry on trombone, Mervin Campbell on trumpet and Vincent Broussard on saxophone.

		A vehicle for the precocious talents of Irish guitar protege Thomas McRocklin, BAD 4 GOOD also comprised of 16 year old vocalist Danny Cooksey, 14 year old bassist Zack Young and 15 year old drummer Brooks Wackerman.
		Having first emerged around the time of the Monsters Of Rock festival at Donington in 1988 McRocklin was taken under the wing of his hero STEVE VAI, at the time ensconced in DAVID LEE ROTH's band, who wound up guiding the band and produced the debut album.
		Brooks Wackerman turned to session work and played on JUDAS PRIEST guitarist GLENN TIPTON's 'Baptism Of Fire' solo album.

	Drum Nation
		Terry Bozzio gives you some insight into his deeply disturbed mind while you get your fair share of punk influence as well from Josh Freese of The Vandals and Brooks Wackerman from Bad Religion fame.
		Another great thing about this CD is that a lot of the tracks which aren’t strictly solo workouts for the drummers feature a lot of great musicians as well such as Rod Morgenstein’s track “Faceless Pastiche” which features some great keyboard work from Jordan Rudess of Dream Theater.
		By the time things wrap up with Stephen Perkins and Wackerman’s intense “Pull Up My Sleeve” you’ve probably realized that you weren’t just air drumming after all but have in fact broken a few things around the house.

	Transcending the Mundane (TTM): Listen / Buy / Read Review of The Empire Strikes First by Bad Religion
		The relatively slow “Boot Stamping on a Human Face Forever” will probably get my vote as catchy pop song of the year (admittedly, I don’t like a lot of catchy pop songs, but this is as good as they get).
		What helps the band considerably on this album is the fast, aggressive drumming by relatively young, new guy Brooks Wackerman, giving this band a propulsion that they lacked during their brief downslide period.
		For those who think this band has nothing to do with metal, Wackerman actually plays a few seconds of double bass on “Sinister Rouge”.
