Quite literally any other drummer.
the guy who had one leg only idk his name
Incoming a bunch of posts of people who know absolutely nothing about percussion, but will chime in on a subject they know nothing about as if they are experts. Most of the post will be either the drummer of their favorite band, since your average btard thinks that their personal musical preferences are a valid judgement on quality, or a token Neil Peart response, because they "heard" he was awesome.
>>702536241
They are the most replaceable behind the bass player. They are often in the shadows doing thankless work bc it really is the easiest and least interesting part of the band... Dave Grohl wouldn't have survived the end of nirvana but he moved to the front and put a guitar in his hands... well of course he would have played for a different band but he wouldn't be dave grohl as we know him had he not changed instruments and went lead vocal
>>702535692

That attitude is the problem. Like Jimmy Chamberlin said "no one will remember the guy who could play like Bonham or Peart".
Basically you have to be original, which she isn't, and she's shit at covering other people.
Quite possibly the worst "metal" drummer in history. They don't even play Dyer's Eve live ever, because he can't physically do it, which is sad since it's pretty slow and unimpressive for a metal song.

This. Just this.
I know, I'll get slammed, but I used to love listening to Toto just for Jeff Porcaro's percussion. Other than that I always list Ginger Baker, John Bonham, Mitch Mitchell as my favs. Although, my wife drug me to a Dave Mathews band concert once, and I gotta say, was fascinated by Carter Beaufort. I know he is all fills, but it struck me as working well.
Drummer like Lars Ulrich and Joey Jordinson who just do fast and loud, I wouldn't call percussionists in the least.
>>702535692

I've been a Metallica fan all my life, and Lars is definitely better than he gets credit for. But he's far from the best.
For hard rock, I'd pick Bonham. Neil Peart is really fucking good but I don't like Rush's music as much.
But the really amazing stuff is in jazz. Buddy Rich was the best of all time, no question. Gene Krupa was a close second.

LAD
Semi-pro musician here who makes a living performing music from Jazz to Latin to Classical to Country to Hip-Hop.
I've played with at least 20 drummers that make Neil Peart look like an old dude playing drums at your local Guitar Center.
Jazz/Fusion/Latin drummers played circles around Peart before he even touched drumsticks.
Saying Peart is a "god" or anywhere above an average level of playing in the prog world is a huge flag on the top of your head that says "I listened to a few Rush songs where Peart did a WICKED fill, like YYZ or La Villa Strangiato. RUSH4LYFE"

Lol drum clinics
Like any of you niggers can hold a candle to the tr808. Your flesh is weak.

It's old man. Just like dads. Music today though, it'll never get old, and always be new.
Anyway, I always thought shit like Zeppelin, Sabbath, Alice Cooper, etc. were dad rock, because that's what my dad was into. I actually always liked it though, so I didn't need to call it something like dad rock, to let people know that I thought I was too cool for it.
SHUT UP Joey Jordison was, is and will be the best drummer ever
Lars is such a bad drummer nowadays that they couldn't even make the drumming sound good on Hardwired.

Yes! I hate the kind of drummer who just sort of sits there while his arms wave around. I want to see a whirlwind of insanity back there at all times.

Joey has transverse myelitis. He's done.
i never pic a favorite musician based on a solo. I've seen too many musicians run through a battery of skill drills in a mind blowing solo then release an album full of basic 1-2 beats or three chord garbage lvl music.
In my opinion the best drummers do more than keep time with a flashy fill at the end of the measure. I think a drummer that adds to a song to lift it to another level is the top tier of percussionist.
This is why Sean Reinert has been my favorite drummer for a long time. His basic beats are more complexed than most drummers fills. He understands when less is more and when ripping it up will make the song.
