07.13.11 | rush ftw | Parallels
07.13.11 | i feel a deja vu coming on.... | Trebor.
07.13.11 | Gabe Serbian so you win | twlight
07.13.11 | yeah slight deja vu, hopefully a little better than last time tho | wakeupdead
07.13.11 | i was reading the list slowly wondering where Neil Peart was lol decent list, Gavin Harrison is awesome | sportsboy
07.13.11 | how is blake richardson lower than moe carlson?
or keith moon not #1? | twlight
07.13.11 | can i get this featured | twlight
07.13.11 | yo its not ranked bro | MO
07.13.11 | Great list. But Matt Halpern isn't that good. | twlight
07.13.11 | again, it's not ranked.
tho i probably should have taken the time to rank it, oh well | flalafell
07.13.11 | keith moon>everything on this list | twlight
07.13.11 | yeah matt halpern was one of the only person who i hesitated to put on this list | Parallels
07.13.11 | dont be so absolute.
Only sith deal in absolutes. | twlight
07.13.11 | the jedi are selfless, they care only about others | TheFantasticDangler
07.13.11 | horrible list, Travis Barker should be 1st | twlight
07.13.11 | oh definitely man
its not ranked | Parallels
07.13.11 | idk, you look like you intentionally placed peart 1st and carey 2nd. lol | YetAnotherBrick
07.13.11 | where the fuck is john bonham | twlight
07.13.11 | sonic- haha this is true my friend
| AngelofDeath
07.13.11 | Not a bad list. Would've liked to seen Hellhammer, but eh.
"Travis Barker should be 1st"
If by first you mean not on here, then yeah.
| twlight
07.13.11 | yetanotherdick- #22 | eggsvonsatan
07.13.11 | Pretty good fucking list. You covered the grounds very well, although I'm not sure about your rankings. | twlight
07.13.11 | god dammit | eggsvonsatan
07.13.11 | Oh boy, how does "Aja" not have a review.
| FearThyEvil
07.13.11 | So because of getting bitched at your old list of drummers you make a new one to look good? | twlight
07.13.11 | i don't really care about how i "look" to you over a music database | FearThyEvil
07.13.11 | You must have if you made a "revised" list due to your old list getting shit. Strider did the same thing when his classic ratings where getting shit from other users. | FearThyEvil
07.13.11 | Also 24 that guy is awful. He can barely keep a beat to save his life, and is also one of the main reasons I can only like certain Pink Floyd albums. | twlight
07.13.11 | fearthyevil- yeah some of my old list got shit, some of it was given props. I realize that some of the people i chose for my last list were horrible so i just wanted to make a new one with drummers that actually belonged on it | YetAnotherBrick
07.13.11 | whoops, my bad, man. didn't see him there. | YetAnotherBrick
07.13.11 | no need for then name calling, though. | acorncheese
07.13.11 | FUCK yeah, mark heron | twlight
07.13.11 | yetanotherBRICK- all in good fun brotha | bab808
07.13.11 | good list. but the rankings... | Point1
07.13.11 | Buddy Rich and John Bonham are too low. | twlight
07.13.11 | do you guys ever read the descriptions for lists? | ShadowRemains
07.13.11 | lol vinnie paul | YetAnotherBrick
07.13.11 | hahaha no problem man :) | Dismantle
07.13.11 | rush | eatdogs
07.13.11 | i'd list josh freese and the guy from the berzerker... | Pigwise41
07.13.11 | Isis' drummers name is Aaron Harris, Michael plays guitar. | KILL
07.13.11 | isis are gay | Gmork89
07.13.11 | Good list, I would put Gene higher though. | Jethro42
07.13.11 | Ahhhhh So nice to see my all time fav drummer Jojo Mayer (THE modern Buddy Rich) into a top drummers list, finally. List still needs Dennis Chambers.
24? Not really.
| FilthyBorgir
07.13.11 | I was wondering were the guy from Tool why I scrolling thinking "wtf", then I was pleased where his spot was in the list. | zxlkho
07.13.11 | Gavin Harrison and Mike Heron should be waaaaaaaaaaaay higher. | MopHeadOvMetal
07.13.11 | Good list! Even 54 - underrated.
If anyone wants to check him out, listen to Tourniquet's Immunity Vector. | Jethro42
07.13.11 | 64, 62, 61, 60, 58, 57, 56, 53, 52, 51, 50, 49, 34, 23, 22, 14, 7 and 1 would all be in my list.
List is 10 times better than your 1st one but some are still questionable like 43 and 42 that are nothing too special. | clercqie
07.13.11 | Still needs Topper Headon and Charlie Watts | Emim
07.13.11 | Better list than your first. Good job. | Jethro42
07.13.11 | What about Mike Mangini - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9x6HnVLdNiI
| Emim
07.13.11 | Mangina | Jethro42
07.13.11 | Machina | Emim
07.13.11 | Cantina | Jethro42
07.13.11 | nah | twlight
07.14.11 | yay jethro approves! | WeepingBanana
07.14.11 | Gabe Serbian is out of this world | climactic
07.14.11 | much better list but some absurd picks ...
isis, protest, periphery, all shall perish, etc | Ovrot
07.14.11 | Chris Haikus and Inferno and Hellhammer are needed | coleba
07.14.11 | Needs Gospel drummer x 1,000,000. | twlight
07.14.11 | Drummer for All Shall Perish does some amazing work on The Price of Existence
Drummer for Protest the Hero deserves a spot for his work on Fortress (instrumental).
yeah periphery doesn't need to be on here, threw it in for giggles | wyankeif1337
07.14.11 | TOMAS FUCKING HAAKE | Ovrot
07.14.11 | Fredrik Andersson too | twlight
07.14.11 | wyankeif- yeah, what about him? | botb
07.14.11 | pretty good list.
those of you that think that matt halpern isn't that good need to seriously watch him/listen to him play more. dude's a straight up monster. | Butkuiss
07.14.11 | Fool. Gallagher is the guitarist for Isis. Aaron Harris is their drummer. Also, Herb Alexander recorded Frizzle Fry, not Jay Lane, if I'm not wrong.
Also, needs the drummer for Defeater. I don't really think Moe Carlson is all that impressive, to be honest.
@Climactic-How isn't Harris amazing!? | foreverendeared
07.14.11 | HOW THE FUCK ARE YOU GOING TO LEAVE OUT JOSH FREESE!! | liledman
07.14.11 | better than the other list, good to see gadd included for once, as well as steve macdonald, jack dejohnette, jimmy cobb and lenny white. still theres some here that just dont deserve it at all. | wyankeif1337
07.14.11 | tomas haake is a machine
no, actually. i'm pretty sure he said so in an interview, like a terminator prototype thing a-la-marcus flint. | syco722
07.16.11 | YUSSSSS MATT KUYKENDALL | PurpleDino
08.17.11 | why is brad wilk on this list? he's a shit drummer | xenocide.
10.29.11 | where the fuck is Jason Roeder??? | BoredtoDeath
10.30.11 | jimmy chamberlin | ITsHxCTOASTER
10.30.11 | This is missing Joey Jordison, he's obviously the best drummer of all-time | Emim
10.30.11 | For the life of me, I can't imagine why people think Barker is all that good. |
