Does anyone know of any rock songs that have used samples and whether or not using samples in rock music is normal and have any examples of rock songs that use samples will be most appreciated
i cant remember that i heard once a rock song that was sample based, mostly when they use material from other artists they do a cover song (interpolation). but its worth a try why not creativity should not have barriers.good luck in finding your sound.
"Rock" is a very very broad genre. Drum samples and sequenced drums can be heard quite often. In indie rock, alternative rock, electro rock and whatever you can hear quite alot of samples.
Bittersweet Symphony by The Verve used a sample from The Last Time by the Rolling Stones. Lots of legal issue ensued. You can hear the sample in it's original and sampled contexts here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitter_Sweet_Symphony
