"Jazz definetly isn't structerless, alot of its improvised, but the term Jazz covers a wide range of music. Say all of it is structurless and acting like you know about it means you obviously dont know about it. I grew up listening to jazz and Ive only been listening to metal for 5-6 years, and the bottom line is, most of the drumming on the jazz albums Ive heard is more difficult then the drumming Ive heard on metal albums. Sure there are some exceptions, Im pretty sure overall George Kolias who I mentioned earlier is better than some jazz drummers, But the bottom line is Jazz is a more difficult artform in the realm of drums than Metal. You mentioned Dennis Chambers, he could kick most metal drummers asses."
Thanks for proving my point yet again. You only look at drumming on it's "technical" aspects. Music (at least I think) shouldn't be a contest on who can play the fastest and most technical. Maybe metal has an advantage cause it makes sense. I think music should be based on feeling and cohesion. Jazz sounds like a confusing mess that i'd rather not bother with. Too bad so many of those guys play within that style, cause their all really talented. But anyway, that's cool I guess, I mean you can interpret music any way you'd like. For me, i'd rather look at it in different perspectives.
