Morgan Rose’s No-nonsense Hammer of Choice
Sevendust drummer Morgan Rose drives the thunder behind cuts such as “Angel’s Son,” “Enemy,” and “Praise.” His unapologetic, force-of-nature timekeeping powers the band’s signature blend of heavy groove and raw emotion. How does he consistently deliver that relentless, rhythmic raucousness that fuels Sevendust’s sound? With his Alien Freak drumsticks, of course! A signature pair designed in conjunction with Vater, Morgan’s Alien Freak drumsticks cut right to the destructive chase when it comes to their sonic profile. These dark hickory sticks give you an excellent foundational weight, measuring a balanced 16 inches in length with wider 0.610-inch diameters. But the biggest differentiator from the other 5Bs is that these sticks have zero taper or tip whatsoever, delivering an extremely powerful strike for high-volume percussing. Their incredibly solid feel is matched with an unlacquered sanded finish, cutting out the fancy touches and leaving you with a momentous pair that drummers around Sweetwater have found to provide extraordinary command. Stamped with Morgan’s electric green Alien scheme, these sticks are all set to transform the impact of your hard rock and metal rhythm section.

The irreplicable pulse of Morgan Rose
Atlanta-born Sevendust founding member Morgan Rose has delivered vigorous, metronomic mastery that has shaped the alt-metal scene with powerful, head-banging intensity since the band’s 1997 eponymous debut. However, Morgan’s rhythmic talents have led him beyond Sevendust's prominence, endeavoring into multiple collaborations and side projects with Call Me No One, The Infinite Staircase, and more — not to mention filling in at the throne behind heavy hitters such as Mötley Crüe and Korn. His critically acclaimed skillset has also won him the distinction of Modern Drummer magazine’s top metal drummer, among other accolades. Morgan has even established his own brand, Alien Freak Wear, which ventures into a multitude of territories from hoodies and merchandise to these delightfully destructive Alien Freak drumsticks!
