Travis from blink and dave grohl are great drummers but no one is better than Danny Carey from Tool. Just listen to #8(Ticks and Leeches) on Lateralus.

my favorites that havent been mentioned yet, in no particular order:

 

Matt Abts (Gov't Mule, formerly Dickey Betts band)

- the best power trio drummer EVER. heavy, heavy hitter. saw him spiderweb a bass drum head two songs into a set back in 99. Only drumer I know that can nail a drum solo 45 minutes into an encore after already playing a 3 hour show already.

 

Yonrico Scott (Derek Trucks Band)

- this guy has drummed for almost anyone who ever had a band, but has found his place here...on his first show back from a heart attack, he was still better than 90% of anyone who plays

 

John Molo (Bruce Hornsby, Phil Lesh & Friends)

- another monster.but then you have to be to play with Phil Lesh, Warren Haynes and Jimmy Herring on a permanent basis

 

Jaimoe (Allman Brothers Band)

- a nicer guy than Butch, and  better drummer to boot.

Nicko McBrain from Iron Maiden is also one hell of a drummer, if you have seen any Maiden footage its amazing stuff on what he does, and since I have pre-ordered my Rock in Rio DVD...muahahaha

Dee Plakas (L7)

Dave Lombardo (ex-Slayer) -- when I met Slayer at a record store signing 10 or so years ago, he was the only one whose autograph I chose to get (we were only allowed 1)

 

Mick Harris (ex-Napalm Death) -- not only did he do all kinds of cool shit on the drums, he also provided those screechy backup vocals on their older material.

Dave Grohl and the guy from Korn

Scott Travis from Judas Priest/Fight (and Racer x i think)

Jason Costa - Diecast

Scott Travis, currently of Judas Priest.

 

Listen to Painkiller. You'll see why

Nearl Peart of Rush is the hands down, no competition straight up best drummer, ever (lots of adjectives).

 

I don't like Rush but that fucker is GOOD.

 

Also:

Dave Grohl

Whoever the guy is playing for the Foo Fighters

Danney Carey

Lars Ulrich

Dave Grohl

 

i should add him as well.. got to meet him saturday evening at the killer queens of the stone age show

Guest Vern Gagne

Ringo Starr from the Beetles. Didn't to do much but was consistent and solid.

 

John Bonham is my favorite. Very agressive...Moby Dick is a great drum solo.

Posted
Lars Ulrich, don't deny the greatness.

Agreed, no-one beats Lars Ulrich!!!

 

Except possibly the late John Bonham, one of the finest drummers ever to exist if you ask me.

 

Metal up!

 

This has been the Taker Mark

Lars is an average drummer at best, and John Bonham is just a drunk.

 

Great Drummers:

 

Sean Reinert(Cynic, Death, Aghora)

Chris Penne(Dillinger Escape Plan)

Mike Portnoy(Dream Theater, LTE)

George Hurley(Minutemen)-a true pioneer that still gets no recoginition.

If ya don't listen to Death Metal than no point in reading my opinion, but on pure skills, I'd have to say the drummer from Morbid Angel is perhaps the best I have ever heard.

Guest O.J. Hart

Wow, can't believe no one's said Chad Smith(Red Hot Chilli Peppers). Also i like Ringo Starr, and Lars Ulrich.

Hell what do you expect back in the 70's. Pratically every one who was playing was drunk or stoned, but don't deny that John Bonham is a great drummer.

Matt cameron of soundgarden and brad wilk from rage haven't been mentioned yet. Well i'll be damned, now they have.

Guest redbaron51

no one also mentioned Clive Burr as well

Guest DrainYou42

Paul Cook

Dale Crover

Dave Grohl

Marky Ramone

Jimmy Chamberlin

Patrick Wilson

Mike Bordin

I have a hard time rating one drummer ahead of another. Pretty much any musician could play drums because they've already learned the rhythms. Adam Sandler played drums in Airheads(the actors actually did the performances) and he usually just does some guitar and singing on his albums.
