Jay Weinberg<\/a> shared his first solo song “Sandstone” with Deafheaven<\/a> vocalist George Clarke<\/a>.<\/p>\n The former Slipknot <\/a>and current\u00a0Suicidal Tendencies<\/a> drummer first teased the song earlier this month and then officially shared it yesterday (Nov. 19). Not only does Weinberg play drums on “Sandstone,” but the rest of the instruments as well.<\/p>\n He revealed in an interview with Australia’s Wall of Sound<\/a> that he’s been working on this particular song for at least six years.<\/p>\n “Guitar is actually the instrument that I started with. I started playing drums when I was 14, but I started playing guitar when I was nine and that’s always been my primary writing instrument. Whenever I sit down to write stuff, it’s typically with a guitar first,” Weinberg told the publication.<\/p>\n Therefore, “Sandstone” is the first of a series of collaborative songs where he primarily handles all of the instrumentation and has a guest vocalist come in to flesh out the rest.<\/p>\n “I’ve always wanted to collaborate with mainly vocalists and just create a very low pressure, like, ‘Hey, here’s a song, why don’t we…’ instead of, ‘Oh we got to start a side project.'”<\/p>\n READ MORE:\u00a010 Amazing Solo Projects by Members of Beloved ’90s Bands<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n He felt that Clarke’s voice was perfect for “Sandstone” and said it “was an absolute dream” working with him.<\/p>\n Weinberg doesn’t have any concrete details regarding the release of the EP, but he’s hoping it’ll be out sometime in early 2026.<\/p>\n Check out “Sandstone” below and follow along with its lyrics underneath.<\/p>\n I squirmed through sandstone statues<\/em> The faded moon fixed outside<\/em> Endangered genius in a circle of fire<\/em> Oh,<\/em> Wait for the danger of the flood<\/em><\/p>\n We\u2019ve clubbed the horses legs<\/em> Wash clean the iron cranes<\/em> All these reasons<\/em> [Lyrics via YouTube]<\/p>\n Click through the gallery to see our picks for the 66 greatest hard rock and metal drummers of all time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Gallery Credit: Loudwire Staff<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nJay Weinberg, ‘Sandstone’ (featuring George Clarke)<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Jay Weinberg, ‘Sandstone’ Lyrics<\/strong><\/h3>\n
Saw deeply miners in iron-rust cages<\/em>
Their lamps as beacons through<\/em>
Gret mornings collapsing<\/em>
Fellows stare absent<\/em><\/p>\n
Faint pianos ring ghastly<\/em>
With these dreams never quenching<\/em>
Our chords of appetite<\/em><\/p>\n
Ashes in the air speckle our garden<\/em><\/p>\n
The faded moon fixed outside<\/em>
Faint pianos ring ghastly<\/em>
With these dreams never quenching<\/em>
Our chords of appetite<\/em><\/p>\n
Drilled into the ground<\/em>
Of our mother<\/em>
In the water<\/em><\/p>\n
Of our elders<\/em>
Shine light through landscapes<\/em>
Of catastrophe,<\/em>
Smoking and aching<\/em>
Smoke stacks are silos<\/em>
For our saviors<\/em>
Witnessing<\/em>
Intimidation on the borderline<\/em>
Praying for lightness to cure the blind<\/em><\/p>\n
Are now forgotten<\/em>
All of these choices<\/em>
We gave to the world,<\/em>
We laid in the tomb<\/em><\/p>\n66 Best Hard Rock + Metal Drummers of All Time<\/h2>\n
