Underrated drummers

[FockerTheLopper]

Well I figured that I haven't seen a thread about drummers in a while so I figured why not make the next one good.

Just post drummers who think are underrated. Really underrated almost unknown but great. I'd say number one on my list would be Stanton Moore(Galactic, Sprung Monkey), hes amazing yet I don't see anything about him.
Another one would be Glen Sobel, he plays for Impellitteri, check out some of they're music, alot of double bass stuff and good ideas.

Discuss underrated drummers.

Marshall ***hope That guy is pretty damn good.

*Hands him flamesuit* Good luck

[Chubbs724]

nah man I used the sarcastic smiley I think I'll be cool :)

but seriously

Recently i got the sky is crying by stevie ray vaughan and the drummer on that CD, Chris Layton is quite good, and I never have heard anything about him.

[dumbassdrummer]

John Panazzo, the origional drummer for Styx.

[DuckinFutch8]

well, I mean, you're kind right about Joey, people beat up on him so much, yet he's not the worst drummer in the world or anything.

*runs and hides*

nah man I used the sarcastic smiley I think I'll be cool :)

Anyone wondering... Simply pick up the live "Bursting out" album by jethro tull, some of the best playing you will ever hear.

Also phil collins, his stuff with early genesis and brand X is unreal!

[rohbit]

I'm gonna say Pat Wilson from Weezer. Guy's got great groove and if you listen carefully, he throws some interesting stuff into some really simplistic songs.

[beaker_747]

I've been listening to alot of Hendrix lately. Mitch Mitchell is a really tasteful drummer. I love it when jazz-reared drummers take up the throne in rock bands. like Matt Cameron and Jimmy Chamberlin. The jazz really helps the rock sound to groove.

Oh, and Stewart Copeland doesn't seem to me getting much rep these days

[RushHourSoul]

I'm gonna say Pat Wilson from Weezer. Guy's got great groove and if you listen carefully, he throws some interesting stuff into some really simplistic songs.

definatly agree with that. Pat's a good drummer.

I would say Matt Johnson from Jeff Buckley's band. I love the stuff he came up with for jeff's album.

[ian1988]

Longineu Parsons III.......Sucks how he's in a punk band......He would do soo much better off in a metal or a jazz enviroment. If it wasnt for him, Yellowcard would be nowhere

Well Jimmy Chamberlin is god on drums :)

John Otto is extremlly underrated, well all of Limp Bizkit are.

Brian Viglione as well, he is a powerfull drummer.

[breakster]

i like josh eppard from coheed and cambria - not sure how underated he is though. hes just damn good

[alexmonty12]

I quite like Phil Selways stuff from Radiohead, i never any mentions about him, but maybe i'm just listening to them too much atm :-/

[keeferz]

Mitch Mitchell. (played with Hendrix) Seriously underrated and talented drummer.

[ToneDef™]

Abe Cunningham of the Deftones. Hands down my favourite drummer in one of the most pioneering bands in a certain genre, yet he's not even on drummerworld.

[Kosmos Tree]

Gavin Harrison, awesome drummer

[jversluis88]

My dad has the "Unorthodox Behaviour" (I think it's called) record by Brand X on vinyl, Phil Collins is amazing.

I agree with some of the posts up there also. Abe Cunningham, and Josh Eppard are incredible.

[Blank]

Jerome Brailey.
He played on Bucketheads "Bucketheadland" CD. Very good drummer.

[Sharkey Boy]

Janet Weiss - Sleater Kinney

her melodic drumming is brilliant

[FL3P]

Tucker Rule from Thursday.....really cool style!

[bonzo jnr]

Brian Downey Of Thin Lizzy Has To Be The MOst Underrated drummer. i think hes unbelivable

[Bonham#1!]

Also phil collins, his stuff with early genesis and brand X is unreal!


Phil was only good with Genesis when he wasnt the singer

[Bonham#1!]

Meg White!!!!!!!!

[Killjoy]

^^^^hahaha

Tim Alexander homies :D

[falda loves pearl xx]

I think the most under rated drummer that ive heard of is Matt mcdonough because he is pretty much unknown and same with his band! Every one should get some mudvayne songs and really listen to them you will not be dissapointed!Matt mc donough is an amazing drummer it was because of him that i started to play drums!
yea and whats up the guys sayin joey jordson is a gd drummer he is apaulling and he pisses himself before a gig lol

[rohbit]

Mitch Mitchell. (played with Hendrix) Seriously underrated and talented drummer.

123 on that. His playing is phenomenal.

[Futuro]

Gavin Harrison, awesome drummer
Im not sure if he is under rated. People love him, he has a book and a DVD out.

But either way, great drummer :p

[LaZaRuZ]

Gavin Harrison, awesome drummer

You beat me to it. He is by far my favorite drummer. When I tell people this, most people say "who?". I've seen him play with Porcupine Tree live twice and each time was outstanding.

[dairyairman]

i'm a big fan of matt macdonough too. he's an inspiration for sure. i also think jon theodore of the mars volta is underrated, or at least not all that well known. he's a good example of a drummer who can do a lot with a small kit.

[Berk]

Andy Granelli form The Distillers and Derek Bloom from FFTl.

[Iscariot]

Also phil collins, his stuff with early genesis and brand X is unreal!

I was just watching some Phil Collins videos on drummerworld. :cool:

Bob Burns is another good, underrated drummer.

[HeLLmO]

as mentioned before, phil collins is sick, really sick. i also think-
Danny Adair(sp?) from 3 doors down, and now in nickelback is really good.

i don't think Mike Wengren from disturbed gets enough credit, i really like him.

i definatly agree that Spug is underrated, i really like his stuff(and yes, i'm still calling him spug).

i also don't think brad wilk gets too much mention, he is an amazing drummer in my opinion.

i also haven't seen will calhoun mentioned on MX too much, i really dig him, Middle Man by Living Colour just blows my mind, and

Joey Kramer from Aerosmith

[Bonham#1!]

Leevon Helm anyone?

[rhcp pman]

You beat me to it. He is by far my favorite drummer. When I tell people this, most people say "who?". I've seen him play with Porcupine Tree live twice and each time was outstanding.
Yeah, I was just listening to some PT. He's pretty good.

And I say, Stewart Copeland of Sting. HE'S AWESOME!!! It's really sad that he's rarely mentioned in a drummer's sections. I'm not even a drummer and I know how good he is. I think he was a big influence on Portnoy as well.

[Double Bass Jim]

Phil was only good with Genesis when he wasnt the singer
Gabriel era genesis = the best
