"Poundcake" is the hard-hitting opening track from Van Halen's 1991 album For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge. Known for its blistering guitar riffs, pounding drums, and high-energy vocals, the song showcases Eddie Van Halen’s innovative guitar work—most notably the use of a power drill to create the iconic intro. Sammy Hagar's vocals bring a raw, gritty edge to the lyrics, which revolve around themes of desire, rock ‘n’ roll attitude, and sexual innuendo. With a blend of hard rock, arena rock, and classic Van Halen swagger, "Poundcake" became a fan favorite and a staple in the band's live performances. It reached No. 1 on the Billboard Album Rock Tracks chart and solidified Van Halen’s status as one of the defining rock bands of the early '90s.

The drum part in “Poundcake” by Van Halen, played by Alex Van Halen, is a powerful example of hard rock drumming that emphasizes groove, precision, and energy. The song opens with a signature kick drum-driven groove that locks tightly with the bass line, creating a solid rhythmic foundation. Alex uses crisp snare hits, tight hi-hat work, and strategic crash cymbal accents to drive the song forward. Throughout the track, he maintains a straight 4/4 time signature with a steady backbeat, but adds dynamic fills and syncopated rhythms to elevate transitions and maintain momentum. His use of double kick pedals is subtle but adds to the song’s punchy, aggressive feel, especially in the chorus and guitar solo sections. The overall performance demonstrates a perfect balance of power, restraint, and musicality, supporting the band’s heavy sound without overpowering it.
