Drummer Influences
My new list. Yay! |
| 1 | | Danny Carey
Tool
I still believe in Danny as a drum god. Although his speed and techniquality isn't as good as other drummers, this guy's drum patterns are awesome. Original, yet it fuses good with the song, and he uses every single part of his drum. |
| 2 | | Dino Campanella
Dredg
He is like the new Danny Carey. He has simple yet addictive drum beats that again fuses very well with the songs. |
| 3 |  | Dave McClain
Machine Head
This guy is great at switching between hands and feet, creating awesome drum fills. |
| 4 | | Martin Lopez
Ex-Opeth
AAAH!! Why did you leave oh Lopez. You with the great jazz influences and perfect feeling. You redefined death metal with the more jazzy drum beats instead of those countless blast beats. |
| 5 | | Derek Roddy
Ex-Nile
An awesome blast beat drummer. His feet are also sick as it can be, I've never heard a faster double base. |
| 6 | | Matt McDonough
Mudvayne
This guy does an excellent job at keeping the songs interesting (especially the later releases). His technique is great, and manages to give every song a different beat. |
| 7 | | Brann Dailor
Mastodon
This guy relies more on fills than other bands. He barely sticks to a simple beat, yet the feeling is complete. Again it's an awesome drummer. |
| 8 | | Bill Bruford
I don't know, but he started with King Crimson
A revolution to the drummers at the early years. While most of the drummers just sticked to the rhythm, holding the beat. This guy just ignored all that stuff, and created some really confusing fills and like that. |
| 9 | | Thomas Haake
Meshuggah
This guy's stamina is unbelievable. His drumming style is also different to the other drummers, mcuh like Meshuggah itself. I love this drummer. |
| 10 | | Virgil Donati
Solo drummer
This guy is like $%&FDMSJOASDF$%. That stands for being the best drummer in the world. This guy is incredible fast, techniqual and has a good jazzy feeling. |
| 11 | | Jason Bittner
Shadows Fall
This drummer is very accurate, which is needed for a steady song. For the rest, he is decent, nothing really sticks out. He is awesome anyways. |
| 12 | | Nicholas Barker
Ex-Dimmu Borgir
Very fast, yet quite techniqual. He has some of the best black metal fills I've ever heard, and also some awesome blast beats. |
| 13 | | Flo Mournier
Cryptopsy
Many people will probably hate if I didn't add this drummer. But I agree with this drummer being incredible fast. If he'd somewhat less sloppy at times... |
| 14 |  | Abe Cunningham
Deftones
This guy has a great feeling and always sets down a cool beat. Nothing more, but also nothing less. |
| 15 |  | Joey Jordison
Slipknot
Mainly because I look like him (without his maks of course) |
