GoneShootin

for that unbeatable GROOVENESS, its Phil Rudd

for a human drum machine, pick Chrise Slade. i duno how he moves those hands so fast !

Karl Hungus

Maybe I should just write a list for every time one of the threads come up?

Jan Axel Von Blomberg.
Best drummer, living or dead.

Buddy rich

metalish

Dave Ghrol when he was with Nirvana and Lars Ulrich-

mike65

Keith Moon...proberly...

Mike.

Brautigan

Nick Mason, especially during the seventies and in particular his drumming on the Pink Floyd - Live at Pompeii video.

Failing that, Ride's Loz Colbert was good. Kyuss's Brant Bjork was awesome, The Cult's Mark Brzezicki was savage in his day (before he died anyway) and Lars Ulrich couldn't drum his way out of a paper bag. The c unt should be hung up...

You don't really know alot about drumming do you?
Lars Ulrich was a great drummer, he can't hack it anymore though.
Dave Abruzzesse
Buddy Rich
Phil Collins
All great drummers... IMO

Not forgetting Adrian Belew

stable music

Not forgetting the great Bill Ward of Black Sabbath.

The man hit them like a caveman. Plus he lived through a couple of heart attacks, cocaine addiction, alcohol (well, brandy) addiction, living rough on the streets for a couple of years, ozzy's tempers, growing his fingernails, depression, schizophrenia and more and yet he still managed to make a comeback with the Sabbath when they reformed last year, or the year before, whenever it was. It's only a pity they're not doing Ozzfest this year...

Bill, we salute you!

Topper Headon.
There can only be one. The term "human drum machine" was invented for the great man.
And while we're at it, Reni of the Stone Roses was under-rated, a supremely talented musician who played drums frm a very young age ni his parents' pub. And John Squire was indeed the Roses' guitarist, and one of the best of his generation. Whoever said he was a drummer needs to educate themselves.

I'm shocked to discover most of you jackasses don't have a fcuking clue when it comes to their favorite bands. Dickheads the lot of you.

Brautigan

Take it wasy Francie... we don't want you killing anyone and hiding their heads in the turnips now...

Gah, you're right, of course. I can't remember who it is I'm thinking of... will post if I do though.

francie brady

Are you thinking of Ansley Dunbar. He pulled drums with Zappa and Bowie. And he is indeed a excellent drummer, Zappa wouldn't have anything else.

NeRb666

Trym, Hellhammer, Fenriz, Gene Holgan, Dave Lombardo, Adrian Erlansson, Nick Barker, Pete Sandoval...

Okie

John Bonham surely wins this argument. Proof needed? Check out "Bonzo's Montreaux" or "Moby Dick" Both classics. John Bonham?...best drummer ever?...I'd kinda like to think so!!

Ruaidhri

Flo Mounier
he is a GOD on the drums(from cryptopsy)
there is not better
and human drum machine is the drummer from Nile.

Brautigan

This may sound utterly out of place seeing as how music has, er, moved on in the last few decades but (cough!) Status Quo's original drummer John Coughlan was a damn good hit-man. That is before The Quo turned into a mindless parody of themselves - After the Quo Live (at the Apollo, Glasgow) 77 album I recall, around the time they decided to record "Rockin All Over The World"...

Slayer's Dave Lombardo gets my vote now that I'm feeling guilty for recalling the pre-77 halcyon days of the Coughlan/Lancaster/Parfitt/Rossi Quo.

trent_derby

It has to b jimmy chamberlin of the pumkins, technical and fast. maybe slayers drummer but who knows?????

Ah, but you're missing out Richard Christy.
His work with Iced Earth??? Classic.

And what about Pete Hammoura?

Edit: And HORGH!!!

FreaK_BrutheR

In percussion terms I'd have to go with Airto (Brazilian Jazz Guru type character).

Ruaidhri

of course we are forgetting Danny Carey!
