This is my entry to the SWOLA 218 Challenge. I did add a prohibited intro, and repeated the first drum part at the end as it was pretty cool.
For those who don't know about the SWOLA challenges: It goes like Ola provides with the basic drums on his YouTube Channel and then you'll need to create your riffs and record and post them in a few days. Hope you like it.
