Drumming album

[Jimmy... Dead.]

I'm not looking for a great album or anything(although, it would be nice ) but a Drummer's performance You think stands out.

Something complex. I love blasting and double bass speed, but quick and creative hands is really what I am looking for.

 

[Skepticism]

Lykathea Aflame-Elvenfris

 

[General Zaroff]

Theres the obvious Nile, Cryptopsy, Hate Eternal, and Behemoth.

Looking for Technical? Meshuggah and PsyOpus.

PsyOpus rejected Derek Roddy because he wasn't tech enough.

1349, Frost's blasts are fucking insane.

Death, Cynic, The Faceless.

eh?

Is that the drummer from Mastodon? bran daylor?

 

[Solipsist]

Morpheus Descends- Chronicles of the Shadowed Ones

Most dynamic drumming performance I've heard on an old-school death metal album. Too bad nothing else is all that exciting on the album however.

bran daylor?

Great drummer.

Anyway, you probably know about Mike Portnoy and all that he entails

Well I never really liked Dream Theater, ALTHOUGH I have much respect for them.

Just a bit too cheesy.

I watched a concert on MHD a couple of day ago of DT and they are amazing musicians. The drummer was tight.

yessir

not metal really but any older Rush or especially Tool's Lateralus album has just awe-inspiring drumming.

What older Rush albums would you recommend?

2112
Moving Pictures
A Farewell To Kings

most pre-Moving Pictures

....get Exit Stage Left...one of, if not the, greatest live albums EVER. Amazing drum solo on that album. There's a great solo on there Rush In Rio live CD too. Neil Peart is a drummer's God.

Watchtower´s album "Control And Resistance" comes to my mind.

Not metal, but an impressive live solo:

Neither metal nor complex, but very creative is (IMO) the Norwegian drummer/percussionist Terje Isungset. (At least I don´t know any other drummer/percussionist who has played on a drum/percussion-set made of ice.)

np: Parissa & Ensemble Dastan - "Moghaddameh, saz-o avaz; Daramad"
