Who do you guys think is the best drummer?

I think that Derek Roddy is up at the top of the list. He is truly amazing.
I listen to a lot of metal so that is probably why i think he is very good.


I also think Neil Peart from Rush is really good.

    Yep, these two. Arguably the two best drummers living drummers. Neil Peart and John Bonham deserve a mention as rock drummers. There's some pretty amazing jazz drummers too - Buddy Rich, Billy Cobham etc.

    Anyone who plays drums will say BUDDY RICH and then the threads end right there. I play drums, and I can tell you Buddy Rich can never be touched.

    ... and I don't even like jazz.

    ^ Haha agreed.

    Not saying he's the best but I"ve always enjoyed Jimmy Chamberlin from the Smashing Pumpkins.. He's dope.

    Love the Neil Peart tribute with the bells

    I agree with Icee Weiner with Mike Portnoy. The man's a genius.



    Others I think are good are Gene Hoglan, to name one.

    I third Mike Portney, although his little run with A7X is a bit shocking.

    This is the best drummer who ever lived... even better than Peart... and that's saying a lot. 64th notes on one hand, plays the bass drum with a stick, hits cymbals underhanded as well as overhand, 70 years old and still playing like a fucking madman. Nobody can replicate this guy... NOBODY.


    Damn!....That's fuckin sik!:eek:

    You all realize youre wrong right? Travis Barker is the best drummer. And Flea is the greatest bass player of all time! Of all time!
