Most people don' know who the best drummers are as they work in music fields most people don't give a shit about.

Exactly. You want to know today's bests: Gerald Cleaver, Hamid Drake, Paal Nilssen-Love, Jim Black. Just a few of them. One of the few great metal drummers is Dave Lombardo (I'm not talking about the classic drummers like John Bonham for example who could really play music).

... Dave Weckl, Vinnie Colaiuta, Steve Gadd, Dennis Chambers ... Buddy Fucking Rich!

Lars ain't even a great rock drummer. The f'n muppet's better than Lars.

Nope. The guy from Rush takes the cake. No one can compare to that guy.

That guy has the same deranged demeanor and look that our very own Howard has when present at state pageant shows for young teenage girls..

Great rock drummer, no doubt. FAR from the best, though.

thread over, i'd love to plop my balls on one of the cymbals and have her take a few whacks.

It's no overly technical....or anything like that. She plays with great emotion, and is clearly a talented drummer.

Fucking hot.

Buddy Rich tribute. Many great drummers there and Peart was, by far, the worst. Not saying Peart is a bad drummer, he's a great drummer in fact. But at the Buddy Rich tribute he was definitely outclassed.

Buddy Rich was just sick...look up some of his solos on drumworld or youtube. 4 piece drum set and he is all over it. His hand speed was amazing. MORTALCOIL hit the best ones I can think of off hand.

Some metal drummers are very good too...not the best but good. Each style has its best drumers. Jazz/Rock fusion drummers tend to be my favorite and arguably the most talented.

Neil Peart.. End of Thread!

Jazz fusion drummer Virgil Donati is about a decade ahead of everyone.

Fast metal drumming is impressive, but those guys can't handle the crazy time signatures of high level jazz drumming.
