Best Drummer

My favourite drummers are Brandon Barnes and Joey Jordison, but they are definently not the greatest. Can't really say who I think is the greatest, I know a fair few who aren't in banRAB and are absolutely awesome. So yeah.
 
^ I love Bonham, and Moby **** on How the West Was Won is out of this f-in world. However, i haven't had the pleasure of seeing him do it live. I have heard stories of Moon, however, and his drumming on the LeeRAB album is unbelieveable. It was a tough decision for me, but in the end i went with Moon.

(p.s. love your sig Kashmir - two excellent songs)
 
Yeah, Danny Carey is amazing. Truly amazing. But I guess that's what you get when you have a jazz trained drummer in a metal band (I consider Tool metal). I like how he mixes other fielRAB with drumming (i.e. using a Fibonnaci sequence to drum in Lateralus).
 
I don't think you can compare those two. Danny Carey is an excelent jazz drummer, but if you put Cobham behind Carey's drumset there's no way he could create what Danny does. Even the best of jazz drummers just can't keep up with the guys on my list. Carey, Bozzio, Peart don't stop in the genre of jazz drumming, thats what makes them great. They are geniuses on all kinRAB of drumming. So a jazz drummer that can't also go ballistic on a 25 piece set won'tget my vote for greatest. For me, comparing jazz to metal or prog is tricky
 
Hey boo boo, do you like wanna stop this pointless ghey fighting now?

You probably haven't heard all the drummers I listed, do you wanna download "Bulletbeast" by Soilwork if you haven't heard it yet? It's probably my favourite display of drumming I've heard in rock. It's the God: Henry Ranta.
 
Danny Carey (tool) hanRAB down. Portnoy and Pert are machines and that kind of takes away from the enjoyment if that makes any sense. Carey has this ability to make his drums an extension of his person. Its almost as if the drums have become personified.
 
Eh, I don't like Portnoy and his never-met-a-fill-I-didn't-like style. And he looks like a pirate. :laughing:

Myung is the only person in that band that I can take seriously... even if I dislike DT, he is a great bassist.
