I think this is a good post.
But first of all, I am shocked that no one mentioned Sean Reinert. He was the first drummer that came to mind. To relate this post to my own, I think Reinert is one of the few drummers who has mastered both the, "fast, agressive" style of metal drumming, and the, "cerebral, well-rounded, technical" style of jazz.
One listen to Death's Human, then the mix of both on Cynic's Focus, and the full-fledged jazz-fusion drumming of the Gordian Knot albums proves the above.
