I’ve talked about my electronic cowbell before, but plain cowbells work just as well in those “hit the mic” sections of Rock Band vocals. They’re a fun accessory to equip your fake plastic band with — as long as you hold the cowbell directly in front of the microphone, anyway.

If you’re going to kick it old school with a non-electric cowbell, you can’t go wrong with the Pearl Anarchy Cowbell.

Is there anything more anarchic than a cowbell? Don’t bother answering, it was a rhetorical question. I mean, just look at this thing. It makes me want to start a riot! An angry, cowbell-led riot!

I bought one of these last year (along with a small cowbell beater), and I love it. I scanned in the packaging it comes with, which is every bit as awesome as the cowbell itself. As you can plainly see, this isn’t just any old cowbell. No sir. This is a NO RULES HEAVY METAL COWBELL with a BRUTAL CUTTING TONE.

Those dudes are intense!

If you’re looking for a cowbell that will intimidate the rest of your band, accept no substitutes! Pearl Anarchy Cowbell all the way, baby!
