From Neil Peart to Zach Hill to the guy from Can, list the best drummers weve ever been graced with. Both technically and just style wise.
Des Kensel, drummer for High on Fire is pretty great
>the guy
>>61804553
Bill Bruford is the best I've heard, but I love 2/3 of the ones you listed
>>61804829
Second Bruford.
>>61804553
Stephen Morris
Bonham, Cream's drummer. Neil Peart's solo on the 30 anniversary of Rush was insane

>the guy from Can
Jaki Leibeziet, yeah he's pretty great.
Dale Crover is my personal pick though.

Both style and technically I would say Bernard Purdie, there's a reason he's on a million records.
Chris Coleman, Derek Roddy, Nathan Sletner, Lyndon Rochelle, and Lenny White are some of my favorites.
I really hate these types of threads, usually devolves into a "nuh uh he's better" kinda thing. Good looking thread so far, but it's better to specify instead of having the vague technicality and style thing. All drummers posted ITT can play almost any style and play it technically. Guess that's why they're the best!

Fuckin make a thread on your own then dood. just wanna see others opinions
Ari Hoenig is GOAT
>>61805449
The one thing I like about Britt sos much is how expressive his drumming is without being too over the top about it
Jon Theodore is the man and I've seen these guys a handful of times with a handful of drummers - but I saw them on the Bedlam in Goliath tour with Thomas Pridgen and that fucker blew everyone away. The halftime swing change in they do on the live version of Goliath is fucking insane and I wish it was on the record so bad.

I actually really liked this performance, although it was sloppy.
Panda actually breaks his cymbal during the part @ 3:45 you mentioned.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGwQmKJaYao <- All the performances are god-tier, and taking it all in is one hell of a facemelter....but if you must, skip to 9:48 for the drum-off between Tony Austin (blue shirt) and Ronald Bruner Jr. (far-right in the black shirt)
Ron's the older brother of bass virtuoso Stephen Bruner (Thundercat), wouldn'tcha know!

That's why I mentioned it. It's pretty funny, he knocks it off a second time later in the video
Brandon Carlisle.
If you ever seen this man perform, he was one of the fastest, most dialed in drummers in punk rock. Rest in power, man. Gonna fuckin miss going to your shows.

Bad technique, you idiot high schooler death grips fan
the guy from lightning bolt rules
>>61806433
The thing I like most about him is he plays in all these agressive bands but has a very minimal kit. He's not some jerkoff with 4 rack toms and 3 different splashes he never touches. He's also got pretty much perfect technique and time. He's not overly flashy, just really fucking solid.

Brian chippendale.
https://youtu.be/_rT_mqPKVvA
In terms of technique Thomas Lang is pretty hard to beat
Brian Chippendale
also kicks the piss outta zach hill
>>61811341
Zach Hill can be way more technical but overall Brian Chippendale works best as a "frenzy drummer"
>>61805349
Jon's the man
>>61805785
and he's gotten exponentially better since then
if Deerhoof were bigger he would commonly be considered the greatest rock drummer of all time
>>61807864
why the fuck are you on /mu/
>>61811373
Zach Hill is more technically trained (Chippendale's technique is quite frankly awful) but he can't do jack shit with it, he's a boring drummer. Chippendale is the fastest I've ever seen and while he's not highly trained or some shit he's amazingly creative and does shit guys like Hill couldn't even dream of.
The Chippendale x Saunier improv thing from last year is amazing
Jose Pasillas. Incredibly underrated.

>>61811581
That was kinda my point, altough I disagree on Zach Hill being boring because he has some cool tricks on Hella.
Mind you there are a few jazz players faster than Chippendale. Then again they tend to use wrist a lot (Chippendale pretty much works like a piston, uses the entire arm on pretty much everything except a few softer ride beats)
peter erskine
>>61804553
I wouldn't consider her the best or even close, but I really love Sara Lund's drumming in Unwound.
>no mention of sara lund
>>61811720
>>61811721
holy shit
The drummer from petend
John Stanier from Battles
Also the drummer from Phoenix is always energetic during live shows
>>61811638
Chippendale is p much pure momentum, he has a ride that's essentially dedicated to keeping his arm going once he's wound up. His whole body goes into his playing. also if you haven't, check out Black Pus. For watching him drum, I prefer seeing him solo to Lightning Bolt and he gets a lot weirder.
I feel like Hill has cool ideas with some of his weird mathy angular shit, but he never really reaches the full potential of those ideas and often just ends up slamming on the snare endlessly.

Neil peart gets my vote, Bruford on a close second
