Comparing Dolmayan to Danny Carey is just ridiculously stupid. Dolmayan definitely carry's their rhythm sections quite well and overall, even though he doesn't do anything outside the box, he's still a solid drummer.

i never thought the drummer in soad was anything special

Album Rating: 4.5

he is a very good drummer IMO, although not really comparable to Carrey, who is pretty much a drum god

The comparison is retarded.

You all miss the point, John was stated as being one of the best in Alt metal. I simply pointed out that he was not, and gave a few that are. I will say that he is an average drummer, not terrible nor amazingly good, just average.

Album Rating: 4.0

SOAD songs are always fun as hell to drum to tbh.



If this album didn't have so much filler it would be a borderline 5. I love the opening one-two punch of "Prison Song" and "Needles."

I'll agree with you on that, but I have a crappy electric kit that makes it hard to play heavier stuff. I changed the voice of the hi hat pedal to another kick sound, but since the resistance between the two is off, its hard to get a consistent sound.

when i don't listen to music like this at all for about 10 years now and i go listen to this album again and get sucked right back in....that's a classic for me. I was young but i listened to this album almost everyday the year it came out. it's all the right notes in my mind.
