Best Drummer!

[DearLoveTDWP]

In your opinion, who is the best drummer in the last 25 years?

I vote for the drummer from Saosin, or the drummer from August Burns Red.

[wewascontenders]

the guy from tdwp

[thesafeword]

Seconded.

[Dr. Acula]

Ringo.

[Jepha]

The Rev.
Or Phil Colins.

[putup or shutup]

Neil Peart

[Jepha]

Dave Grohl is great, too.

[Dr. Acula]

The Rev.

NO. And even if he was, he seriously gos by the name The Rev.

[Getup and Dance]

Chris Pennie
Thomas Pridgen

[AussieBoy]

Will Ferrells scrote in Step Brothers

[c_rob2700]

i won't be the first to mention a certain ex-blink drummer and be scolded
not scott raynor

[xtheaudition]

[TotalCollapse]

Drummer from All That Remains (Shannon Lucas)

[downtotheriver]

Thomas Pridgen is amazing.

I do agree with the OP the August Burns Red dude is really good.
Obviously not one of the best in 20 years, but still talented.
Like them or not, you can't deny his talent.

[downtotheriver]

Also - dude from BTBAM is really good.

[viva la cymche!]

Meg White > Everyone

[xtheaudition]

haha meg white sucks, im a better drummer than her.

this girl shredds the kit better than meg haha

[kanyewong]

Travis Barker. Nuff' Said

[xtheaudition]

t barkers the man, he was the shit playing with just one hand!!

http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c144/matthewloucks/travis-barker-400a052107.jpg

i saw him with +44 playing one handed, he was still just as good!

[steveo142]

Carter Beauford is amazing.

[AussieBoy]

Danny Carey from Tool is amazing, im convinced he plays with his penis as well, sound like 3 hands going at once

[AussieBoy]

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/da/Danny_Carey_Kit.jpg

how is his set up!!! insane!

[Klatzke]

I'm gonna go with Neil Pert as well.

I'm not well versed in drummers though. I must say, the ABR guy can shred it.

[micahistheballs]

Jon Theodore
Thomas Pridgen
Obligatory Neil Peart shout out.

[ShimmerAndSpill]

I don't think you can categorize one person as the best drummer, but these guys are good.

Chris Pennie (Coheed, Ex-Dillinger Escape Plan)
Gil Sharone (Dillinger Escape Plan)
Erin Tate (Minus the Bear)
Blake Richardson (BTBAM)
Branden Morgan (Misery Signals)
Cyrus Bolooki (NFG)

Those are my favorite anyways. The drummer from the number 12 looks like you is pretty good too, I don't even really listen to them, but I've seen videos of him do some pretty spectacular stuff.

[downtotheriver]

I'm gonna go with Neil Pert as well.

truth

haha meg white sucks, im a better drummer than her.

Meg White is a good drummer you jackass. It does not take immediately loud, fast skill to be a good drummer. It takes innovation, and use of the bare essentials. Meg White gets long great, with what, 4 a bass, snare, and cymbal? Just because she isn't desperate enough to make videos of herself playing doesn't mean she sucks. She is great at keeping the song down to level.

No. Not really. She's painfully average at best. Jackass. Also, if keeping time makes a good drummer then let's just name every drummer alive in this thread.

it doesnt matter what you use she still isnt good at all, and the white stripes are horriable. bob ferrari (ex pink spiders) uses the same as hers, and hes good and makes it sound intresting, the white stripes are boring as hell.

I did not say that keeping time is the only thing that matters. What matters is keeping time, keeping the attention balanced between the musicians, and not having to show off and make the whole song seem mediocre and awkward. How she is "painfully average at best" is beyond me. Like I said, just because she doesn't make videos of herself and make a point to show the extent of her skill does not make her "painfully average at best".

How can you say she is the best if she never shows her skill? part of being the best is showing it. not going, "hey IF i played as good as i could i would be good!"

Haha the Pink Spiders are so fucking shitty it's unbelievable. You listen almost exclusively to pop-punk. I would not expect someone who only appreciates immediately accessible music to listen to the White Stripes (or good music at all, for that matter).

[A Love American]

How can you say she is the best if she never shows her skill? part of being the best is showing it. not going, "hey IF i played as good as i could i would be good!"
When did I say she was the best ever? Jesus christ, I was just defending her from accusations stating that she "sucks". And yes, it sort of is. It is knowing when to show skill and when not. What the fuck is this? When you read books, do you make up things that people said and change the story so you can think of something smart and clever to say about it? Nevermind, I just read your profile and your favorite book is the bible; you aren't used to having support for what is said.

[DearLoveTDWP]

how can you joke on my musical tastes, you dont see my joking on modest mouse or radiohead. this is a thread on the BEST DRUMMER EVER and the drummer from TDWP is twice as good as Meg.

[xtheaudition]

Haha the Pink Spiders are so fucking shitty it's unbelievable. You listen almost exclusively to pop-punk. I would not expect someone who only appreciates immediately accessible music to listen to the White Stripes (or good music at all, for that matter).
i never said i listened to the pink spiders, did i? no.

i listen to everything from underoath, to new found glory, to no doubt, to 80s stuff like real mccoy, ace of base, and i enjoy stuff like anberlin, reggie and the full effect, senses fail, eleventyseven, metallica, and unearth =D

but yah i exclusively listen to ONLY pop punk.

you have to realize some people dont understand how you can listen to the rocket summer and opeth together. kudos to you for have broad musical tastes, like myself.

[A Love American]

Haha that's because there is no reason to insult Radiohead or Modest Mouse. And TDWP's drummer is a complete run-of-the-mill shitty 12 year old metalcore drummer. On par with the drummer with Paramore, if even.

[DearLoveTDWP]

Every single band you listed sucks, except No Doubt and very few Metallica.

underoath has more talent that all the bands on your lists combined. Aaron gillespie could play every instrument better than the people from modest mouse. and new found glory are innovators. dont rag on other peoples music just because you cant come to realize that timothy mctague from UO writes guitar riffs like he is God. You should respect that.

[DilesMavis]

I saw Opeth last night. A+ song list they played. Especially with Deliverance and Hope Leaves. Great show, just thought I'd say that. :P

[A Love American]

I understand that. My profile lists both Nick Drake and Give Up The Ghost... not alike at all. Again, you're an idiot.

Run of the mill?, dude you were just backing the White chick. It takes skill to be able to play the style of TDWP (which is not usual metalcore), they are very original if you truly dive into their music. have you ever listened to all of their stuff?

[dbrodriguez]

Easily Questlove from the Roots in my opinion. He has played with tons of people as a guest and can do just about any genre!

[Nickohtine]

I dont like Slipknot that much, but Id say Joey Jordison by far.

Do not say stuff like the bolded part unless you can say it is beyond any possible comprehension that anybody can be better. Which I can assure you that you can't.

Danny Carey is the drummer from Tool btw. Amazing drummer, but I wouldn't presume I know enough about drumming to comment on the best ever.

Neil Peart or Dave Grohl. I also gotta give props to Zac Farro. He's amazing for his age.

Oh, and to contribute something of value to this thread, I'll say Jimmy Chamberlin.

Meg White.

Not really. I know plenty of drummers his age that aren't even in bands that are far better than him. Just scour youtube and you'll find them!

Your musical tastes are anything but broad.

Listen to what you will, but don't claim to have more knowledge of music than what's been bestowed upon you by FUSE and your metalcore fuckbuddies.

Oh, and Jesus was a man.



PS: I vote Aaron Gillepsie. ;-)

[underthetalking]

Brian Chippendale is very very very very good.

[Hey Kevin]

haha someone said the Drummer from Paramore
that dude can keep up but when they played some live Mtv thing he plays his drums way to hard so they really hurt the music. dude doesnt know shit

[Hey Kevin]

no one fucks with Z. Hill and B. Chippendale

and the old drummer from BTBAM who played on Silent Circus was really good. the new guy is ok but just not as creative

[SamLantagne]

Definitely Ryan Long from The Johnstones.. he's seriously super rad. Take a look at this: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=XLPJ9AofJ70&feature=related

The Johnstones have a great sound, totally different from some other ska bands, so much energy, and are just a load of fun! http://www.johnstonessex.com

You just have a total hard-on for this band, don't you?

Sure, if you say so. I'm just helping promote them.. you don't have to listen to them, I'm just suggesting them because they're wicked good and they work really hard... I'm not forcing anyone to like them;)

[humanafterall]

While I am not a fan of Rush by any means, Neil Peart is the greatest drummer of all time.

I'm not a huge fan of the band, but The #12 Look Like You's drummer is excellent too

[quicksilv001]

Your musical tastes are anything but broad.

Listen to what you will, but don't claim to have more knowledge of music than what's been bestowed upon you by FUSE and your metalcore fuckbuddies.

Mine are broad... I think.

Best drummer? The guy from Russian Circles is the first one to come to mind.

[iloveblink182]

this ones good for some laughs

Sal Abruscato (Life Of Agony and former member of Type O Negative)

This guy is a beast on the drums!

I heard that Paramore's drummer Zac Farro got a mention.
He's drumming's future.

[miketheauthor]

the guy from tdwp

I hope your joking...

[iSasquatchh]

Leche from As Blood Runs Black. So talented.

[wewascontenders]

I hope your joking...

i hope you have a mental defect.

[the daniel]

Mr. Circa Survive
Mr. Misery Signals
Mr. The Number Twelve Looks Like You
Mr. Ex-Dilllinger Sherone
Mr. August Burns Red
Mr. Between the Buried and Me

They're all already listed (I think)

[the daniel]

Leche from As Blood Runs Black. So talented.
Hes okay I saw them live, most of the shit recorded in the album are edited on with programs. He doesn't do half the stuff he does live.

[honestykills]

not saying he's the best drummer, or even one of the best drummers... but one of my favorites is Alex Rodriguez from Saosin. Voices era, definitely not the new album. he's held back so much on In Search of Solid Ground.

[11:11]

Darren King (MuteMath) is one of the best drummers out there currently.

[mattmatumbo]

underoath has more talent that all the bands on your lists combined. Aaron gillespie could play every instrument better than the people from modest mouse. and new found glory are innovators. dont rag on other peoples music just because you cant come to realize that timothy mctague from UO writes guitar riffs like he is God. You should respect that.

Wow, wtf? You must have some stellar weed.
