History of Blast Beats in Extreme music from 1982 to 1989

Definition of Blast Beats “the blast-beat generally comprises a repeated, sixteenth-note figure played at a very fast tempo, and divided uniformly among the bass drum, snare, and ride, crash, or hi-hat cymbal.“ This is a compilation of some of the earliest usage of blast beats in extreme music ( metal and punk ) from 1982 to 1989 . I choose to stop at 89’ cause blast beats started to grow in popularity in the 90’s and beyond.
