I'D HAVE TO SAY THAT MY FAVORITE DRUMMER CURRENTLY IS FLO FROM CRYPTOPSY.

HOWEVER: DOC FROM VADER, PAUL BOSTAPH, DAVE LOMBARDO, VINNIE PAUL, JOEY JORDISON, THE DUDE THAT WENT FROM ORIGIN TO SKINLESS, AND NAPALM'S DRUMMER ARE ALL AWESOME!!!!!!

Alex Hernandez

my vote would be bias...

John Bonham all the way. and maybe the guy from Rush

i dont have a favorite just alot of guys i like including:

dave lambardo, igor cavalera, john bonham, flo from cryptopsy, whoever drums in hate eternal, and bill ward of black sabbath.

- John Bonham
- Dave Lombardo
- Vinnie Paul
- Joey Jordison (I don´t like the new sound, but this guy rules!)
- Mike Portnoy
- Terry Bozzio (I saw a video...unbelievable!!!)

EDIT:
I´ve forgotten
- Paul Mazurkiewicz

Derek Roddy!!!! from Hate Eternal, Coucil Of The Fallen plus In cold Blood (Malevolent) and some songs on Black Seeds Of Vengeance (Nile)

Shame on all of you for not mentioning Keith Moon, Bill Bruford, Terry Bozzio, or Phil Collins.

Carmine Appice is cool too. he is in Vanilla Fudge

I remember your favorite band, but not your favorite drummer. Is the drummer in that band you are afraid to name ?

not afraid...just afraid i'll start to get hate mail

just say it!! whats so bad about it?

HATE MAIL... THAT'S NOT COOL

why would she get hate mail for naming her favorite drummer?

I don't think she'd get any hate mail, but we'd all get a good laugh if she told who her favorite band is. ( Sorry vidix, I don't mean to make fun...) Not that its really funny, but I'll just say its the last band you'd expect a member of a Cannibal Corpse website to name as their favorite band.

who?? im shaking with anticipation!!

You wouldn't believe me if I told you. I still wonder if she wasn't pulling my leg.

You'll have to ask vidix.

ok ok ok ok....my favorite band is stryper, so my favorite drummer is robert sweet. even if you hate them, you have to have enough brains to admit they are musically talented. i can tell you that cannibal agrees with me on that.

they weren't a run of the mill 80's no talent "hair band".

go ahead..give it to me.

ok its fine that you like them but lets just say they are definently not one of my favorite bands.

Well that was a nice response

is that sarcasm?

no..i was basically saying thanks...notice the happy face

hmm, i didnt notice it the first time around.....well ok then your welcome

You know I never thought about that before, but you're right... they do look kind of like a videogame don't they? I always thought it was more like professional wrestling or bees or something with the stripes.

Which one is the drummer ?

The blonde on the right side. his brother michael is the singer in the middle, tim gaines is the bassist on the left, and oz fox is the bottom middle..guitar. in case that was a quiz too to see if i was screwing with you

i got pics with them...i can show you

No its not a quiz, I believe you. I just couldn't remember. I haven't listened to them since 1986.

Thats ok.

So is he really a very talented drummer ? What I mean is, is he your favorite drummer because he's a really great drummer, or is he your favorite because because he's in Stryper and you like them ?

What song(s) of theirs have the most impressive drumming ?

from what ive heard stryper sound like they came out of a church or something.

i don't know shit about drumming so i can't tell you which is the most impressive but i know he is good.there are just those people you see and you know they kick ass. i would say listen to something off to hell with the devil..yellow and black attack..agaist the law. really hard to pick off the top of my head..sorry

Well "To Hell With The Devil" and "Yellow and Black Attack" are the only ones I have, but I can't go listen to it since I only have it on LP ( remember those ? ) I don't have a record player anymore

Did I mention Neil Peirt ? He deserves to be mentioned in a favorite drummer's topic. I like his drumming a lot, especially how he doesn't play the same patterns more than a few measures in a row. A lot of drummers just play the same simple patterns over and over and throw a few fills in, but with Rush Neil is going off all over the place on those drums. Live he is amazing.

I have never heard any of their music but I can just imagine ...... whoa guys slow down on the makeup a bit

AHHH.. BUT TO EACH HIS OWN I GUESS

Fredrik Anderson is my personal favorite.

Tony Laureno (Nile) and also Pete H.
Pete Sandoval (You better know)
Derek Roddy (Hate Eternal)
Flo (Cryptopsy)

Thrash: I would pick Igor Cavalera (You should know)

Black Metal: Trym (Emperor)
Ole Öhman and Tobias Kellgren (Dissection)

good choices

Flo Mounier owns all the drummers out there/ he kicks ass.

maybe not longstreth, or the dude from yattering, you really need to hear some yattering, sir. esp. murder's concept

didn't he also play lead guitar and bass on the new one? i'm pretty sure i'm right

and write the lyrics

yah he does basically everything, the other guy i think just does rythm guitar, and glenn benton just sings the lyrics they write.

well, then dave's pretty fuckin' badass

hell yah!! a chinese metal god.

Kevin Talley , with out a doubt is amongst the best, not the very best, but he's still fuckin amazing!

Richard Christy (Death, Control Denied, Iced Earth)
Nicholas Barker (Dimmu Borgir)
Nicko McBrain (Iron Maiden)
Martin Lopez (Opeth)
Lars Ulrich (Metallica...before Load/Reload)
Gene Holgan (Death)
Paul (Cannibal Corpse)

Martin Lopez and Danny Carey. Not only are they good, they aren't cocky with their talent. At least not to my knowledge.

DANNY CAREY RULES!

Flo: Cryptopsy. God.

...simple as that.

Dave Lombardo, Igor Cavalera

flo from cryptopsy

AMEN TO THAT.

flo fucking kicks ass

hell yes

all hail Flo

HAIL!!!!

Frost from Satyricon

Richard Christy, without a doubt (Death (He ruled so much in Death)/Control Denied/Burning Inside/Iced Earth).

Frost from Satyricon is quite fast live!! And Armagedda from Immortal, Doc from Vader and the guy from Decapitated was great also live.

Igor Cavalera is my favorite, but other honorable mentions:

Paul Mazurkiewicz (Cannibal Corpse)
Raymond Herrera (Fear Factory, Brujeria)
Jimmy Chamberlain (Smashing Pumpkins)
Richard Christy (Iced Earth)
Mark (?) Prator (ex-Iced Earth)
Vinnie Paul (Pantera, David Allen Coe)
Dave Lombardo (Slayer, Testament)

NEIL PEART ALSO THE BEST LYRIC/SONG WRITER IN THE WORLD
PETE SANDAVOL
PHIL COLLINS
BILL WARD
PAUL BOSTOPH
THE DRUMMER FROM FEAR FACTORY SIMPLY FUCKING AWSOME LIVE
THE DRUMMER FROM NILE
CARMINE APPICE FOR BEING COOL TO ME WHEN I MET HIM WHEN I WAS A KID AT A DRUM CON IN DALLAS
AND THE OFTEN OVER LOOKED ALEX VAN HALEN

Now Playing: A STEALTH BOMBER FLYING OVER MY HOUSE

I HATE TO SAY THIS, BUT I CAN'T STAND NEIL PEART, LOL. HIS BAND SUCKS.......BLEH.....

Now Playing: STAIND: PRESSURE

Damn, Buzzworm put Phil Collins on there...that's old school right there my friend. He plays Michael Jackson's theme song... 'He seems to have an invisible touch, yeah...'

Other drummers I forgot to mention...

Steve Asheim (Deicide)
Flo (Cryptopsy)
Max Weinberg (Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band)
Phil Collins (Genesis)
Roger Taylor (Queen)

Did we mention Igor Cavalera ? Damn he is good.

he sure is. his drumming on Beneath the Remains i especially like, its insane.

I did, he's my favorite. I wanted to get a Sepultura T-Shirt that just had his face on the front and him jamming to Kaiowas on the back.

I'm a drummer so heres mine. Theres sooo many awesome drummers out there, from jazz to world music. I just happen to be a metal head.

Lars Ulrich
Paul Bostaph
Dave Lombardo
Paul Mazurkiewicz
Doc
Pete Sandoval
Steve Asheim
Flo Mounier
Kevin Talley
Gene Hougland
Sean Reinhert
Richard Christy
Derek Roddy
Dave Culross

I say it would have to be a tie between Pete Sandoval of Morbid Angel and Flo Mounier of Cryptopsy.

Now Playing: Morbid Angel-"Stricken Arise"

WHAT??????????????????
THATS FUCKING BLASPHMEY JOEY AND YOU KNOW IT.
IF YOUVE SEEN THE RYTHM METHOD PLAYED LIVE IN THE ROTATING DRUM SET YOU WOULD HAVE A MUCH DIFFERNT OPINION.

LOL....DUDE, HIS BAND SUCKS, IN MY OPINION. I HATE RUSH, ALWAYS HAVE....NOW, HIS DRUMMING ABILITIES ARE NOT WHAT MAKE IT SUCK.......I THINK HE'S A GOOD DRUMMER. IT'S GEDDY LEE'S VOCALS THAT JUST KILL ME, AND THE GUITAR PLAYING IS NOTHING SPECTACULAR EITHER. BBUT LIKE I SAID, THAT'S JUST MY OPINION.

GEDDY

GEDDY LEE JUST REMINDS ME OF A MOUSE ON CRACK THAT SUCKED A WHOLE BALLOON OF HELIUM AND HIS VOICE NEVER WENT BACK TO NORMAL......BUT ANYWAYS.....THAT'S FOR THE "WORST VOCALIST" THREAD.

Now Playing: NAPALM DEATH-DESPERATE MEASURES

Dave Culross

???

Malevolent Creation...Suffocation...Incantation ring a bell? Drummed for each of those bands.

Oh OK. I never really thought the drumming stood out, but I'll pay more attention to it next time I listen to Malevolent Creation or Suffocation. Don't have any Incantation though.

Ok well get this album...'envenomed' by Malevolent...You won't need to listen closley to notice his drumming threre...It doesn't stand out in suffocation as it is not as demanding as MC's...GET THE ALBUM NOW!

EN-FUCKING-VENOMED! Culross is awesome on that album!

Pete Sandoval

Pete totaly. I just herd Drum Check off of Heretic. I GOTTA get that now.

Now Playing: Mortician-Final Bloodbath

can you play it yet? my favorite drummer is steve from Deicide. i just learned parts of gorerotted mutilated in minutes
