    Im guessing Stilll around?

    People like Dennis Chambers, Tony Royster Jr, Terry Bozzio, Neil Peart are some of the best

    immy Chamberlin or Matt Cameron are also verry good

    Its hard to tell as most arn't in their prime anymore

    Saw Matt Chamberlain play with Tori Amos the other night and he was amazing, as was she. There are many great drummers out there, however.. Matt Cameron is no doubt at the top heap.

    I was going to point that out too. I believe he means Neil Peart.

    And Matt Cameron, yes is a very good drummer, is not the best in the world.

    It feels like this topic comes up again every couple of months.

    Check out Gene Lake. He's a pretty badass drummer, and I personally think he's better than Matt.

    This changes alot for me. Just the other day all those little fills that Neil Peart does in Tom Sawyer were kickin my ass. There has gotta be 100 essential drum licks in that song.

    I meant Neil HAHAHAH

    geez, as if this forum didn't have enough drummer debates between dave, jack, and matt. now were asking whos the best drummer period? this is the type of question that is a never ending debate. if you want the person with the fastest hands just type up "buddy rich" on youtube. you will be in complete amazement. i thought the dude fastforwarded the tape, yes his hands are THAT fast.

    maybe Chad Smith...he entered the guiness book...he played on 308 pieces...
    but Matt Cameron is much better...but Phill Collins isn't far behind...

    I'm not a musician. I don't know the dynamics of drumming but I really wanted to say that Jimmy Chamberlain is my favourite drummer of all time.
  • boroff89boroff89 Posts: 786
    Jon Theodore, formerly of The Mars Volta, is the best I have ever seen, and by a wide margin. I'd throw in Jose Pasillas from Incubus and Glen Kotche from Wilco too.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.

    Glad to see Phil Collins getting some respect...the man is a very talented musician...I agree also with Neil Peart, Matt Cameron, Danny Carey...I did not see the Police on tour, but I've always really liked Stewart Copeland...I appreciate drummers that are distinctive and easily identifiable...

    btw, have any of you guys seen Buddy Rich play? Check out some of his stuff on youtube, it's pretty awesome...

    I've always loved Sean Kinney as a drummer too.

    Phil Selway Radiohead
    Trent Reznor/his live drummer (that takes a lot of work) Nine Inch Nails
    Jose Pasillas Incubus
    Jeremiah Green Modest Mouse
    Ágúst Ævar Gunnarsson Sigur Rós

    But to be honest... they're not even close to a "best" drummer... so

    Neil Peart.
    If I could, think I would give in.

    These topics are so pointless for music......EVERYONE HAS DIFFERENT STYLES.

    There is no greatest now or ever.

    My favorite though is Barrett (Screaming Tree's) and Danny Carey (Tool).

    Joey Castillo is up there with many of the previously mentioned.
