Wrong forum.

There was a thread very similar to this a while ago, and several people were saying Deliverance (the album).

Wrong forum.

Still, the song or cd you're asking for is Opeth related. Oh well...

Wreath is a good example, Ghost of Perdition has some great drumming moments.

Really, I'd just stay away from My Arms, Your Hearse...that features his drumming at its most standard.

Id say go with anything from Deliverence or Ghost Reveries. The older albums are more straight up metal drumming but the newer ones had alot more complex and original ideas.

 

[FRUGiHOYi]

I would say the song Harlequin Forest.

I like the drumming in Windowpane.

what the fuck are you guys talking about....

MAYH has some of Opeth's most creative and diverse drumming....sure, he doesn't sound as "tight" as on Deliverance, but it's way more crushing and challenging to play

i'm a drummer, and that's just my two cents...
deliverance has lots of fast double bass and a few polyrhythms...woooo

 

[Talking Meat]

I like flashy drumming, so the Deliverance album takes the cake.

 

[Slayer101]

yeah, his best is shown in deliverance imo

ftw

Ghost Reveries or Damnation, some parts of Deliverance (album). The reason I don't say all of Deliverance is because it has too much double bass and often lacks creativity. As a drummer myself, I'd rather listen to a more inventive style than "fast" rhythms. I'm sick of listening to the same, "difficult" rhythms that everyone and their second cousin plays. Skill is definately a good and important thing to have but if one lacks creativity, that skill is wasted.

This all just my humble opinion, though. I may disagree with some people, but I am certainly not saying they are wrong. Have a nice day!

Pretty much anything from Still Life. I'd say that's where his Latino-jazz drumming stands out the most.

Delivernce, for double bass....................Ghost reveries, for complex and technical beats.
