As Performed on Master of Puppets
 
Listen to the song to get an idea of timing and when to do the rolls
This song is pretty complex because the beat is rarely exactly the same.
There are alot of random cymbal hits and such.
 
The beginning has a little open hi-hat here and there, listen to the song for that part.
 
Hit the cymbal and bass at the end of the first riff
 
CC -X-X-X-X-    This is played before the 
SD -o-o-o-o-    drum beat begins
 
HH -x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-  This is the beat for the
SD ---------o-------------o---------o---  beginning
BD -o-----o-----o-o-----o-----o---o---o-
 
When its getting close to the end of the guitar riff do this
 
CC ---X---X--------------------------- 
ST ----------------o-o--ooo-----------
LT --------------------------o-o------
FT -------------------------------ooo-
SD -----------o-----------------------
BD -o---o---o---o---------------------
 
The harmony riff begins after the 1st time this roll is done
Do the beat shown above during the harmony riff
 
After this roll The verse begins:
 
CC ---X---X-----------------------------------
ST ------------------------o-o--ooo-----------
LT ----------------------------------o-o------
FT ---------------------------------------ooo-
SD -----------o---o-o-ooo---------------------
BD -o---o---o---o-----------------------------

CC ---------------------X-X-
HH -x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-----
SD ---------o---------------
BD -o-----o-----o-----o-o-o-
 
CC ---------X----------X----    "They see it right, They see it well"
BD -o-----o---o-o-----o-----
 
CC ---------------X-    "Natives getting restless now"
SD -------o---------
BD -o---o---o---o---
 
CC ------X-----X-  Main beat for last solo of song
SD ---o-----o----  there are some variations like 
BD -oo-oo-oo-oo--  more cymbals or a double snare hit and stuff like that
 
CC -X-X--X-X---X--    This is the part in the middle of the solo
