Top 5 drummers

[Glaucoma]

Who do you think they are? I'll narrow mine to active rock drummers, but feel free to mention anybody you'd like.

1- Tim Alexander (Primus)
1- Matt Cameron (Soundgarden/Pearl Jam)
1- Chad Smith (RHCP)
1- Reed Mullin (Corrosion of Conformity, and so totally underrated!)
1- Lars Ulrich (Metallica)

I expect Neil Peart from Rush to be on everyone's list. We will just make him a free space. =)

poor drummers, kind of sad that you have to list the band they're from since no one knows, unless they're a drummer too, lolz.

What did the drummer say right before he got fired?
'Hey guys..check out the new song I wrote'

I know, right? The average listener rarely appreciates the drummer.

Matt Cameron is the perfect exception. One of my most favorite Soundgarden tunes is one he wrote, Fresh Tendrils.

Pearl jam fan here but Matt Cameron is in your top 5 all time? And bonham isnt? I'm stunned. Matt's with the band for the most part because he can play 3 hour shows 20 times a year for long tours year after year but he's about as creative as a rock. He's a machine, yes, but don't expect anything interesting from him. All his tempo is 4/4 and the rhythm never changes.

I think everyone gave free passes to peart moon and bonham or they would be on most lists

Wow what a list , not a single mention of the most technically proficient drummers ever .

1 Terry Bozzio, most couldnt even play his kit.

2 Chad Wackermam .

3 Billy Cobham .

4 Lenny White .

5 Chester Thompson .

Keith Moon & John Bonahm were both jokes & werent fit to wipe Buddy Rich or Gene Krupas asses .

Fancy showmenship yes , technically proficient drumming no .
