best drummers in metal

markshark said:
just another one of these stupid threads....here are my favorites in order though:

1. kyle morgan - misery signals
2.brann dailor - mastodon
3. justin foley - killswitch engage
4. sean reinert - cynic (dont know if theyre still around)

others include mike portnoy and danney carey but i didnt really consider them metal but they are among the greatest. how about u guys?

i agree with dailor. hes a fucking MONSTER.

i dont know their names cuz i enver look up band member names, but the dude from nile and the dude from fucking cryptopsy are fucking SICK. also the dude from all shall perish (new drummer on the 2nd album). lololol iron maiden. ya ok.
 
Nile has had a shitload of drummers because Karl Sanders is a dick. If you're talking about the last album, meet George Kollias.

Flo Mounier is the popular choice for cool metal drummer dude, and he's solid when it comes to playing death metal. I've never heard him outside of Cryptopsy, so can't say much about him.

And All Shall Perish is...what's a nice thing I can say about them...better than most deathcore bands? Can't stand 'em personally. I think we've talked about this.

Brann Dailor could be better if he like learned to play a standard beat, and not snare fills for an entire 7 minute track.

Drummers like Foley are a dime a dozen in metalcore.

I'll you who's awesome. Kevin Talley. I don't know who he's with at the moment, but he's done duties for The Red Chord and The Black Dahlia Murder. Dude is sick. I hate (HATE) the Red Chord, but my jaw was on the floor watching his drumming when I saw them.

Best drummer in mainstream metal: Jason Bittner or Chris Adler (Shadows Fall and Lamb of God, respectively).

This really is an objective (subjective? One of those) opinion kinda question. I guess it all depends on your taste, so I won't knock your choices. Unless you choose like Korn's drummer or something. Then you're a retard. Whatever you think sounds the best to you, so don't take my above first two statements to heart. Just my opinions. But Talley is indeed retardedly talented.

I'm sure I could name any number of black and death metal drummers, especially those who play progressive music, and they'd top lists as well, but names escape me at the moment.

bittners real good. mainly i wanted to refer to foley in redtide or even blood has been shed pre-killswitch but now hes in kse so thats all i could say.
 
Mike Terrana
Flo Mounier
Tony Lauriano
Max Duhamel
Martin Maurais
All the dudes from Running Wild (lol)
 
Hmm, well, drums can pretty much make or break a great metal riff... My favortie drummer is The Rev, from A7x. I think his drums go great with the guitar.

Anyone who says Lars Ulrich is a moron. :)

Edit: Shadows Fall has a pretty phat drummer as well, i just bought thier 3 latest cds, they kick ass
