Wow that was fucking sick… it wasnt even a drum beat it was a drum song equipped with a chord progression via little symbols or whatever.

I wish there was Youtube when I was 12 and started playing drums. Well, and Youporn.

Gene Hogland is one that I forgot. Brann Dailor is good, but being able to just play a lot of well placed drum fills doesn’t make you a great drummer.
Tony Laureano is one I’d never have considered, but that dude can fucking rip, I’ll concede this also.

Tim Yeung from Divine Heresy / World Under Blood is a contender too!
Guy is sick!
I highly recommend you check out the world under blood stuff.
Got three songs up on their myspace.

Marco Minnemann owns. The way he’s so fluid and natural when playing, and also that he has fun playing (I remember watching him smile and laugh a lot while he was playing with Necrophagist during Summer Slaughter 2007; that drum solo was phenomenal) makes him one of the best metal drummers.

As for the others listed above: I find Marco Pitruzzella extremely overrated. The dude can blast extremely fast, that’s much it. I agree with Flo Mournier, Sean Reinert, Gene Hoglan, and Brann Dailor. Then, I’d like to add Dave Lombardo, Derek Roddy, Tony Laureano, George Kollias, and Steve Flynn.

Shanetera: Those are some excellent drummers, no doubt about it, but in my view these three:
Sean Reinert (Cynic, Death
Gene Hoglan (Dark Angel, Death, Devin Townsend, Strapping Young Lad, 1000 other bands…)
Brann Dailor (Mastodon)

take the crown.

PS: Marco Minneman is amazing. That last minute or so was insane.

The other best drummers in metal are:
Flo Mournier (Cryptopsy)
Marco Pitruzzella (Brain Drill)
Justin Rousselle (Beneath the Massacre)

Prove me wrong.

Because every time I’ve tried to secretly sit behind my drummer’s kit and play ANYthing, only to sound like I belong on the Special Olympics drum corps, all half-way decent drumming sound amazing to me. So yes, this looks/sounds spectacular to me.
