Best Drummer

Did I ever tell you the story about this one guy who said that Danny Carey was a horrible drummer and that he actually has midgets hiding behind his drum kit doing all the work?
 
I'd be happy to. You see, what I did was, I took the definition of overrated to mean someone who gets a lot more recognition than they deserve right? Then I applied this to Mr. Carey. And I came to this conclusion because nothing he does impresses me at all and for some reason everywhere I look people are hailing him to be one of the greatest ever modern drummers. It disgusts me.
 
have to go with neil peart

i propose that next time we divy up the survey, into

Progession

Chops

and OVERALL BADASSNESS
 
Right now, for me, it's Danny Carey. Then I'd say Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater, and Mario Duplantier of Gojira. Des Kensel of High On Fire is another great drummer, as is Brann Dailor of Mastodon.


Of course all time drummers have to include Buddy Rich, John Bonham, Neil Peart, Keith Moon, Ginger Baker, and Art Blakey. I don't want to forget Gene Krupa, either.
 
The White Stripes are the sum of all their parts.
Meg being 50% of that sum. Her minimalistic style contributes to 50% of what the sum total of The White Stripes are...SHIT HOT!!!
