Lars Ulrich

Fuck yes.

And Def Leppard's drummer. I don't know his name, nor do I like Def Leppard in any way. But dude, he only has one arm! If that doesn't make you an awesome drummer then I don't know what does.

 

[~Neurotica]

nothing really to laugh about... Maybe Ulrich isnt awesome technically, but as a composer hes great. And I can say that a half of latest metal bands (drumming) are influenced by his school.

When it comes to threads like this, WN, please, don't even bother responding anymore because we already know your answer and it has been noted countless times. We'll just assume your answer is Gorguts and move on.

Ken Owen (he isnt the most technical, but his drum patterns are some of the most memorable)

Nikke Andersson (mostly for his grin raising performance on Daemons "7 Deadly Sins" - the drum solo in "pride" is both shambolic yet awesome)

Brian Dixon - (Cathedral have been so great since his addition)

Mikkey Dee - (One of the most criminally under rated drummers of all time)

Bill Ward - (No reason needed)

 

[Saparmurat_Niyazov]

Mikkey Dee - (One of the most criminally under rated drummers of all time)

Exactly the reason he's on my list as well.

If I hear one more person mentioning Mike Portnoy, Im going to find them and kick all their windows out.

[Zephyrus]

The drums on St Anger remind me of the sound made when i wash the dishes !

the snare alone single-handedly sealed the coffin on that album.

 

[Teh Grimace]

anyone who doesnt like st. anger because of the production is a lame ass.

i like the production. i wish more albums sounded like that.

it's the music/lyrics that are weak.

 

[Killbot]

Leon Macey.... why did he decide to concentrate on the guitar? that mother fucker.
