Nice Drumming

Thomas Haake will melt your brain....some mentalist stuff going on there. Especially on Chaosphere and Nothing.

Vinnie Paul had some great rhythms going on, he really drove the song along but it always had a groove going (e.g. Psycho Holiday, Five Minutes Alone) and the drumming on Primal Concrete Sledge is absolutely brillerrific.)

Jon Theodore, from the mars volta.
he has roots in a sort of classic jon bonham style, but he took it to a new, jazzy, salsa, progressive level. i reckon you'd like him!

Agreed, incredible drummer. The band ain't too shabby either.

Dave Grohl for me.

Stephen Perkins from Janes Addiction and Porno for Pyroes would kick anyones ass at drumming.

It wasn't me!

No he wouldn't.

I also think John Dolmayan of SOAD is an excellent drummer.

ah c'mon, does he really need all those cymbals too be good?!
and also, double kick pedals aren't the ultimate drumming ability....

god i swear these boards are turning me more and more away from metal every day!


cheers rahim for the backup, i still think he's the best on this list..

It wasn't me!

No, being creative and interesting is, but speed is nice, as is good double-bass work, and creative use of cymbals, no matter how many he has.

Some savage drummers posted here. I would urge you all to check out Jose Pasillas from Incubus even if you don't like the band or their songs. He's feckin amazing and completely self taught. I would recommend the songs Pistola, Echo and Sick Sad Little World.

If you want just plain fast, dragonforce or wintersun

I dont see bonham anywhere!!! Man he was good. Some seriously sic rhythms and grooves. Raw power with a feather touch if needed. Moby dick!!! Pure class.
Chad smith form the chilli's. Doesnt do it obviously but his ghosts notes, shear energy and that funk style really does it for me!!! ever see him jamming or at clinics?? Brilliant.

BobTheBeat

Have to say, Bobby Jarzombek's playing is very very impressive. His technique and interpretation is real smile inducing stuff.

I think the old "Does he need that many cymbals" (or toms for that matter) question is a bit long in the tooth. Sure enough, when you see peter Kriss play on his obnoxiously large kit, that query can be begged, but this definitely does not carry through to the players of today. If they have big kits, that means they need big kits!
Ok, the cymbals to the back and extreme sides are unnecessary, but hey, its more about flair and performance in this case.
He's just an excellent drummer to watch and learn from, if nothing else!
