You can create entire song drums using the loops included. You can also feel free to edit them as they show on the piano roll as standard midi info. The trick to doing good programming from scratch is to think like a drummer(and be aware of things a drummer CAN'T or DON'T do, like hit the hat, snare and tom all at once).
+1. Absolutely everything Albee1952 says I agree with.

EZdrummer is very cool.
