Favourite Drummer

[Mort Divine]

Tomas Corn from Lykathea Aflame is pretty high up there for me, his work on Elvenefris is just so "varied" and interesting compared to alot of death metal drumming. It is almost as if the band told him "Okay, you're going to sit here and play a drum solo while we record the rest of the song."

Johan Langell (ex-Pain of Salvation) is another favorite, he may not be the most flashy all of the time, but he is very effective in movin' the songs right along and when the time is right he does shine, particularly in songs like Her Voices, Nihil Morari, and The Perfect Element.

Sorry to go off topic, but speaking of Summoning, does anyone know where I can find some live videos of them? I'd really like to see their stage act.

I'm pretty sure they don't play live.

I'm pretty sure they don't play live.

I'm pretty sure they don't play live.

I hate this about black metal. Most of my favorite bands will never appear on stage for my viewing pleasure.

Dude, the Agalloch drummer is John Haughm.

Dude, the Agalloch drummer is John Haughm.

John has recorded drums on all of Agalloch's albums so i'm not sure what that person is talking about it either.

Ben Koller is great yeah, but what's wrong with Lombardo?

 

[Mort Divine]

John has recorded drums on all of Agalloch's albums so i'm not sure what that person is talking about it either.

Chris Greene is their live drummer iirc, he also did the two ambient tracks on AATG, and I think most of Scars of the Shattered Sky.

 

[Reaping Clarity]

Oh sorry my mistake, I was going from the information from Metal-Archives, none-the-less it's some fucking kick ass drumming

Lombardo is one of the tightest drummers of all time so get off of planet screamo-slop and open your ears. Converge has to be the worst band of all time. Thats the truth.

Leave him alone. He's clearly the spokesperson for Converge.

Lombardo is very good at improvising, he is a natural drummer, not a technical one.

 

[Vossyrus]

I read that Dark Funeral kicked out drummer Modin who was an excellent drummer, and then bragged about the new guy they brought in. I was skeptical at first, but then I saw a video of the new guy and he is insanely good

Question: Am I the only one around here that listens to Fear Factory?
