Good grief. I agree on Chad and Brad. But I'd throw in Dave Grohl, Jimmy
Chamberlain (Smashing Pumpkins) and Taylor Hawkins (Foo Fighters). hmm,
I'm not sure. There are probably loads more, too. Dave and Jimmy,
though. They are defiantly my favourite ever drummers. yup.

Brain cells. . .(only joking, the temptation was too much for me. Hehehe.
Sorry).

>it's either neil pert of rush or the dude from tool,

See. . . .Gawd, I absolutely cannot belive that there are still people out
there that utter the name *Neil Pert* Yeah, he was (or is, whatever) a
great drummer. . .technically, but the guy had absolutely no style. He is a
prime example of changing music from an art form into a science. And what
is with having a 500 peice drum set? He needed a friggin' helicopter to
lower him down into it.

>And if you question such a rash statement, please read any drummer magazine

Any guitar mag would state that Steve Vai or Eddy Van Halen is the best
gutar player, but their music. . .well, if I even have to say, then you
wouldn't understand. Therefore, the definition of "Best" is a bit allusive.

>or ask any drummer that can play anymore than a 4/4 beat on his kit.

Well, any drummer that can only play a 4/4 beat cannot really call himself a
drummer now, can he?

>Can
>the guy from blur even play sixteenth notes?

Depends on the tempo. Hehehe Of course, Dave has one of the best drum
sounds you can hear. I think what makes a drummer good is what he
contributes to the band and to songs as a whole, not being able to
generically plud along at 300 rpm's and doing 20 minute drum solos. That is
plain WANK. Although I hardly think he is the best. The best is. . .Reni
(of course). . .or Animal from the muppet show.

As a drummer myself, i would have to say either Jimmy Chamberlain from The
Smashing Pumpkins, or Danny Carey from Tool. Some honorable mentions, Dave
Grohl, Taylor Hawkins (Foo Fighters), the drummer for Our Lady Peace, Alan
White (Oasis).

I don't think Kenny Aronoff is too great... on the Adore tour, he
totally butchered some of the Pumpkins' songs... To Sheila anyone?

I think that once you reach a certain level of ability, the word "best" is pretty
useless - they've got enough ability to be the master of their particular style,
etc. For my money, some of these people are:
Jimmy Chamberlin
Chad Smith
Dave Grohl
Larry Clayton Jr (i'm going to look stupid if it's Adam from U2 that plays the
drummer, i've forgotten which is which)

You're kind of right. Larry Mullen Jr. is the drummer. Adam Clayton is the
bass player. Sorry.

now, when looking at Selway and Haskins, one may think that they aren't the
fastest drummers, etc...but the point of being a good drummer (or a good
musician, basically) is the effectiveness with which you use your instrument.

Sean Moore (Manics) and Ginger Fish (Manson) are personal faves. Dave

larry's good these days, but prior to achtung baby he wasn't much to speak
of. he went on a drumming course after that in new york, and yeah, he's
pretty great now.

IMHO, Phil is a GREAT drummer... maybe not the best tecnically (ie, not the
fastest or loudest) but he is extremely "musical". I could not imagine any
other drummer taking over Phil's spot, there's no way anyone else could get
the same sound.
Examples of "musical" drum tracks:
Exit Music
Talk Show Host
Electioneering
Just
Airbag (I know its sampled, but still...)

I can't believe that as of this posting, there were only two others who
brought up Carter Beauford. Alright, I know the frat boys like 'em, but you
think they really know how good this guy is? Even if you're not a fan, you
can't deny that Carter is up there in the top five, if not #1!

the songs.

Funny, I though Carter had a drum machine.

I suppose it was probably quite a talented drum machine though.

since that, I fell in love with Stephen Malkmus on Saturday night!!)

Alan White? Are you mental? I would have given you the benefit of the doubt if

Alan White can't lace his brother's boots.

PS Oh, and John Stanier (ex-Helmet).

Cozy Powell from Rainbow and Keith Moon from The Who. Both long gone
now, but the best along with John Bonham.

The Best Drummer: would have to go to Mike Bordin
formerly of FNM now part of Ozzy's touring band

listen to the drums on 'Jizzlobber' (Angel Dust - FNM)
and the entire 'King For A Day.."(FNM) album

and see that this man is truly the best drummer ever
