Keith LeBlanc

American hi-tech drummer / producer. Founder of Tackhead, . LeBlanc's fist solo album Major Malfunction is considered to be the first Tackhead recording, and was very influential in the industrial scene.

LeBlanc's drumming is unique for his bassdrum approach, which consisted of very precise 16th notes. His hi-hat approach was also unique, in that he rarely played straight 8th's or 16th's, but rather syncopated patterns which were considered modern at the time. LeBlanc also drummed on songs for Living Colour, Ministry, Nine Inch Nails, REM, Peter Gabriel, Tina Turner and Little Axe. LeBlanc also went into drum programming and sampling, e.g. on Malcolm X - No Sell Out (Tommy Boy 1984).
