06.04.13 | I was waiting to see Travis Barker in there. And a lot of times it's hard to tell if people are trolling or being serious when they name him.
Also, good list. |

06.04.13 | Huge props for 7 dude. |

06.04.13 | adler is overrated, lopez rapes axe and bruford> |
Artuma
06.04.13 | Huge props for 7 dude. [2]
also for 6, Duplantier is a beast. 1 is my fav too
inb4 "where's Neil Peart?" |
Mongi123
06.04.13 | Finally a list where neil peart isn't number one. Neil Peart is amazing too but he's always at the
top. Danny Carey is amazing. |
tempest--
06.04.13 | Lopez >
adler rocks he's always got a constant groove and his footwork is impeccable |

06.04.13 | 7 hard. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Axenrot's performance on Heritage > anything Lopez has done. |
MO
06.04.13 | good list but missing a lot of the greats
Oh and dailor sucks |
mandan
06.04.13 | Danny Carey is a one-trick pony imo. |
YoYoMancuso
06.04.13 | dailor doesn't suck he just has restless arm syndrome |
mandan
06.04.13 | Dailor rules. |

lol Neil |
mandan
06.04.13 | Why hasn't anybody mentioned Carl Palmer? Best rock drummer who ever lived imo. |
Dodecahedron
06.04.13 | Martin Axenrot better than Martin Lopez? |
DamnVanne
06.04.13 | List is pretty great imo tbh. Has probably 6 drummers in common with my own top 10. Since that is the case, listmaker, you should check out the drummers from Russian Circles and Porcupine Tree |
oltnabrick
06.04.13 | lol pt |
Artuma
06.04.13 | "Martin Axenrot better than Martin Lopez?"
not by far but yes. Gavin Harrison from PT is an amazing drummer too yeah |
oltnabrick
06.04.13 | he is in kc too u know |
Dodecahedron
06.04.13 | Lopez is a beast, no way is Axenrot better |
oltnabrick
06.04.13 | Axenrot is better [2] |
JamieTwort
06.04.13 | oltna knows. |

06.04.13 | "Axenrot's performance on Heritage > anything Lopez has done."

BigPleb
06.04.13 | Axenrot is better [3] |

06.04.13 | Lopez is a beast, no way is Axenrot better [2] |

06.04.13 | Portnoy is overrated imo. Though I think it's quite known how I feel about DT. |
Artuma
06.04.13 | Portnoy may be a douchebag but he is still one of the best drummers out there |
mandan
06.04.13 | Portnoy does the technical stuff, but lacks flow imo. I prefer flowing improvisation over repetitive fills. |
Ire
06.04.13 | no |
Derptopher
06.05.13 | needs more portnoy imo |
SgtShock
06.05.13 | Oh shit forgot to but Gavin Harrison on here. Damn. Yeah and the guy from Russian circles is sick. Saw him live and realized he only had a single pedal. Blew my mind. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.13 | Lopez>Axe imo, Aaron Harris isn't that good, Gavin should be here as should Billy Rymer/Chris Pennie and Jason Roeder |
Yuli
06.05.13 | Portnoy and Peart can play fast, but don't do anything new or interesting (besides the fact that Peart plays things that make weird noises! Whoa, nifty!)
Chris Pennie
Billy Rymer
Thomas Pridgen
Joe from A Lot Like Birds is really impressive too. I wouldn't say he's one of the best, but he definitely has a unique perspective on drumming. |
JamieTwort
06.05.13 | Billy fucking Cobham. |
UnnamedOcean
06.05.13 | I can't speak enough praise about Mark Heron. His playing has pretty much defined my own drumming style. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.13 | Oh damn, how could I forget to mention Mark Heron. Legend. |
UnnamedOcean
06.05.13 | So many drummers get praise for technical ability alone, but Mark has such a unique and inventive style, that's what makes him great. |
SgtShock
06.05.13 | Rymer is sick. Anyone who can play that awesome while someone is maniacally deconstructing your kit and abusing it is amazing in my book. |
JohnnyoftheWell
06.05.13 | So many drummers get praise for technical ability alone, but Mark has such a unique and inventive style, that's what makes him great.
Agreed, and his chops are incredible anyway... |
KrishVeerns
07.09.13 | A best drummers' list excluding Gene Hoglan ,Shannon Lucas (ex-Black Dahlia Murder,ex-All that Remains),Jordan Mancino(As I Lay Dying)(Listen to the album An Ocean Between Us),Mikko Siren(Apocalyptica)(Listen to the song fisheye-IMO the song which showcases his talent best) and of course Dave Lombardo (Give Testament's The Gathering a listen ,you'll know what am talking about,IMO among the best drumming albums ever) ,is hereby considered invalid. |
Ire
07.09.13 | wrong |
KILL
07.09.13 | krish likes metal :D |
SgtShock
07.31.13 | Yeah, Krish I guess is just into different kinds of stuff. I like prog and post-metal more, so those kinds of drummers really inspire me. Looking back on this list, I would probably switch Dailor out with Gavin Harrison. |
conesmoke
07.31.13 | Cool list, I'd add Jason Roeder from Neurosis, Dale Crover from Melvins, and of course Billy Cobham from lots of things. |
conesmoke
07.31.13 | also, LOL at the cats in your profile pic |
SgtShock
08.03.13 | Roeder has that awesome taste for subtlety that I respect so much from drummers in that genre. Plus, almost all ride cymbals for your kit (even the hi hats)? That's sick xD |
