Travis is more than likely gonna win this. But I'm still curious.

Travis for sure. I'd really like to see what he's do on some more complex rock music though. It could be spectacular or terrible.

My vote is for Travis just as an influence to myself. Im sure most of the people on this site are musicians in one way or another so I'm sure we all can agree that what Travis does is truly mind blowing.
All of the above though are amazing drummers don't get me wrong!

Travis, but if MCS is considered pop punk, then their drummer gets close second.

If this poll was made a couple weeks ago, Travis Barker would not be included.

Travis, but Andy was a close second for me.

Of course it's Trav hands down but Andy and Cyrus are both great. They just don't have much of a chance when going up against a fucking animal haha.

Travis tears it up as a showman.

Andy is very good at what he does. I'm not sure he'll ever be widely hailed as outstanding, but he delivers the tasty chops every time.

Cyrus is a hell of a musician as well.

I can't say much about Steve though.

Travis by far is the best on this list.

Not true. He would have been there anyways.

Travis Barker
I've been listening to him since i was like 11.

it's a given.

Travis, but Andy and Cyrus are great too.

02/14/09, 03:18 PM
Tre Cool should have been added to this list! He's not as good as Barker but sure gives Steve-O and Cyrus a run for their money. FOB's drumming has never impressed me, nor has their music in general.

I'm saying Andy but just because he plays in a pop-punk band and is into hardcore. It's hard to find musicians like that.

TreyForest
02/14/09, 08:53 PM
Barkers the best out of them
hes really good but not a god or anything
live he rushes his beat which makes them play extremely fast

im no big AVA fan but i think atom willard is better then barker, he hits it hard man, rocket from the crypt hes got some good shit
same wit some of the ava songs,
for what kinds of beats and style i like when im jamming id prefer atom playing

Travis, but Andy and Cyrus are great too.

I'm surprised with all the love for Trace Cyrus. I didn't think many people on AP liked him and his musical abilities.

Except for all of the dudes in NFG. Chad used to sing for Shai Halud and the band started from the hardcore scene in Florida

Travis is fucking awesome, but some times I think he parts are a little too crazy. Like the verse to Adam's Song is amazing, but for some reason I don't like it in that part. Don't really know why, but thats just my opinion.

I really enjoy playing NFG songs on drums though, so I went with them.

02/15/09, 04:27 PM
They're all awesome, but I think it's impossible to vote against Travis. He's the drumming high standard if you ask me, at least in pop-punk.

Anthony Imro- I mean, Travis.

Longineau Parsons (LP) - Yellowcard. He freakin kills,

02/15/09, 07:40 PM
Travis Barker (though he hasn't been doing the pop-punk thing for a LONG time) followed VERY, VERY CLOSELY by Cyrus Bolooki. I mean, it's neck and neck.

02/15/09, 10:32 PM

i still picked travis.

Travis, but Cyrus is very underrated. That dude does some pretty rad stuff, especially live.

Really...if you don't think travis is then. wow.

It's definitely a fact he is. The other guys are good, but NONE of them can stack up.

mrnegativezero
02/18/09, 07:22 PM
There's a key difference between "favorite" and "best"....that being said I vote for other because my favorite pop punk drummer would be Zac Farro of Paramore. I see a lot of potential in him and love what he comes up with. Especially with the live intro's and outro's. But of course, Travis Barker is probably the best.

Travis - not just because I like Blink the best, but because he's the best.

travis is one of the greatest drummers of all time regardless of genre. every time i've seen him live my jaw drops in awe.

Travis. all of these guys are great though.

Cody Nelson
02/23/09, 04:52 PM
I'm surprised you don't have LP on here, who is, to me, more talented than all four. However, my favorite, is definitely Barker.

02/23/09, 05:17 PM
tb hands down. you forgot to mention he was in the aquabats!

mxpxjf
02/24/09, 12:25 PM
The headline said "favorite" and the question here in the forum says "best", so I must distinguish between the two. Barker is definitely the best, but my favorite is the dude that drums for All Time Low. I don't know his name, I just love the way he drums.

listen to the fury of the aquabats!...its a great cd and its travis barker playing some impossibly hard drums to really fast ska

I've always been curious about them, but I've never checked them out since I don't like very much ska.

02/25/09, 05:58 PM
Barker and then Tre Cool

Why are there a Bunch of Landslide polls on this site? Actually make it a close one please, We all know everyone loves Blink-182. We all know Travis is the best drummer on this list. STOP MAKING STUPID POLLS
