    wow. i was going to be pretty rude about this, but ill just assume youre a really young girl that doesnt really know much about music yet.

    lemme educate you:

    drums are the rhythm of a band, it's like their heartbeat, it keeps the timing down. if the drummer is off timing, the whole band will be. they hit "drums" which are basically some cylinder shaped instruments which produce a thud, cracking, or clashing sound.

    bass is the low end of the sound. it can be a bass drum, which produces a thud noise, or a bass guitar, which produces a really low tone. not many people pay attention to bass guitar, but it's necessary when making music.

    drummer - the rev

    Drum and bass is a type of electronica which utilizes fast breakbeats and heavy sub bass lines. Wikipedia has extensive information on it and sound clips - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drum_and_bass

    well, drum is a terrible drug that you should never attempt and the bass is just a breed of dog that originates from russia
