His brothers, Chad Wackerman, and John Wackerman, are also drummers.

He left the band to join Bad Religion in 2001.

In 2001, he became the drummer for Bad Religion by replacing Bobby Schayer, who left the band due to a shoulder injury.

2006

In 2006, for The Pick of Destiny tour, Wackerman was selected to feature as the drummer for Tenacious D due to his previous work on the Vandals' Look What I Almost Stepped In... album, which both Jack Black and Kyle Gass cameo on.

A full-length self-titled album was released in 2007, and another album in 2012, entitled Hold Your Fire, is available for digital download.

Brooks also played drums for Avril Lavigne.

2012

in 2012, Wackerman played with Tenacious D again on their Rize of the Fenix tour where he got the nickname "Thunderskin" from Jack Black for comical remark, making appearances on the Late Show with David Letterman, Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.

Wackerman was replaced by Jamie Miller.

On November 4, 2015, it was revealed that Wackerman was the new drummer for Avenged Sevenfold.

Brooks was working with the band one year prior to the official announcement because the band wanted to "fit in" with the new drummer.

2016

His first album with Avenged Sevenfold was The Stage (2016).

His first full-length album with the band was their October 2016 release The Stage, which showcased his progressive metal style of drumming, often using fast double kicks and blast beats.

Alongside Terry Bozzio, Wackerman contributed drums and percussion for Korn's untitled album.

Wackerman is also the drummer for the Innocent, a thrash metal band featuring bassist Ryan Sinn (formerly of Angels & Airwaves and the Distillers), vocalist Brandan Schieppati (Bleeding Through), and guitarist Dave Nassie (No Use for a Name).
