Barclay James Harvest - Summer Soldier (studio version)
 
If memory serves there's some "military drumming" ...or something similar on the Campo di Marte album and maybe on the Osage Tribe one ("Arrowhead), but I would have to check and make sure...

Well, that ooby-scooby thing is meant as a parody, of course...

I stand behind my Explosions recommendation, Chris Hrasky sounds very millitary to me.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

EROC ( Grobschnitt ) does a lot of military-like drumming.

I thought of Test Dept (very, very far from Prog-Rock) whose some pieces were driven by loud percussions on a military-like beat.
I also remember of a song from experimental punk-rock band The Ex, "Lied der steinklopfer" (on their anthology "Singles. Period")

Maybe the march in 7/8 at the beginning of Genesis' The Battle of Epping Forest or the militaristic groove in Apocolypse in 9/8 from Genesis' Supper's Ready.

I'm going to take a shot in the dark here on precisely what you mean and suggest "Abaddon's Bolero" by ELP.

Hi

I don’t write here very often but now I need your help. I have weakness for military-like drumming and I adore a few songs I already collected which are:

“Magdalene (My Regal Zonophone)” Procol Harum

“Mr. Street Fair” Machiavel

“A Man for All Reasons”Argent

“Drummer Boy of Shiloh” The Fairfield Parlour

“Back Door” Kansas

“Guillotine” Deep Feeling

    Only short samples here but still...

“Harvest of Souls” IQ

“La Marche des Hommes” Morse Code

All of them are great compositions and I would like to hear more prog songs with such drums - one good thing army gave us Wink

I apologize if I am using wrong musical terms, I hope you’ll understand what I mean - if not, listen to “Magdalene” Smile
