Drums and percussion instruments keep the beat. A metronome keeps the beat but is not played by anyone and is not considered an instrument.
To keep the beat
In pipe bands, the main types of drums are the bass drum, snare drums, and tenor drums. The bass drum provides the foundational beat, while snare drums produce sharp, crisp sounds for rhythm. Tenor drums add melodic and rhythmic variation, often played with mallets and incorporating visual flourishes. Together, these drums create a cohesive sound that complements the bagpipes.
In "Beat! Beat! Drums!" by Walt Whitman, the drums and bugles call to action the youth and the general populace, urging them to respond to the call of war. The poem evokes a sense of urgency and inevitability, as the sounds of the instruments disrupt daily life, compelling people to abandon their routines and join the fight. The call is both a summons to arms and a representation of the profound impact of war on society.
Paul McCartney played drums as Ringo had walked out on the band on the Beatles recording, on Siouxsie and the Banshees the drums where played by Budgie (Peter Edward Clarke).
They are played in beat to a song's tempo.
An example of personification in "Beat! Beat! Drums!" by Walt Whitman is when the drums are described as "continuing to beat" in the poem. This personification gives human-like qualities to the drums, as if they have a will of their own.
