@MrPhillykat wait i'm not done with you. listen to the drum track on Not Now and tell me you could write that at 18. next time you're about to insult Travis hold your tongue and suck a dick
you can take Eric singer off that list. Travis is better than him. but your list is still good. i am not saying replace Eric with Travis, because both of them don't make top 5.
oh yeah, and Buddy Rich is better than Niel Peart. Buddy inspired Niel and that student is never better than the master.
Why do you say that? I think he's always been a generally shy guy when it comes to socializing and showing off... met him a few times.
Being in the popular eye is how he makes his money.
If you're talking about how he's asking for water and powder, he's in a studio with technicians working for him, time matters. So, I'm sure he has an assistant to make things go faster in those situations...
@powellskater11 He's sweating profusely, so he wanted powder for his hands and the AC on. That's not really pampering. If he insisted on having two Taiwanese women massaging his knuckles between takes while another fed him chocolate covered strawberries, then you'd have a point.
this guys look but he getting all the fame. Compare to him bucket drummers aka street drummers, in my opinion thats where the talent is but travis ftw
Street Drummers will never be able to touch guys like Mike Portnoy and Neil Peart because there's alot more to drumming than pounding shit....there's tuning, cymbals, off-time drumming, dexterity...the works...give a street drummer a kit and then we'll talk
There are so many drummers on youtube alone they eat this guys lunch. He is a basher and a good one but as far as technique..... Look up Gavis Harrison if you want groove with mad chops.
Playing with a click definitely shows commitment to your craft. A friend of mine is a personal trainer at the gym. He said that once a year he himself works out with one for a week so he can concentrate on his form. I know people who play to a click track live. Depends on what you're going for. It's music, and there's no wrong or rights.
He keeps count with a metro so he can be better live. Anyone with a brain would do that if they werent just trying to say "oh, but I can do it without a metro..." well Im sure he could. But he wants to progress...
OK, Travis barker. A good drummer? Yes, but if he was really good he could keep a beat without some shitty metronome. Also, every video of him drumming he stops and goes "hay !" and says somebody's name all cocky and shit. I guess he earned it but still. Fag.
Drummers need to keep time. No drummer can do that perfectly, it's those humane imperfections that make human's better musicians than computers. Every drummer can improve by playing to a metronome every once in a while, using a metronome doesn't mean they need one. It just means they want to improve.
k... YES he's an amazing drummer. NO he's not the best. who cares?! he kicks ass at drums and is an ispiration to many. thats all that matters, so stop dissing on him.
travis barker played for blink 182 and a couple rap songs--- infamous? ...no. There's the media going to all of your heads. Sure, he's talented. But not even close to being the best ever, period.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
you think that your are so men whit trough the bottle to eny ware hey bitch come on pick up and throuh to the trash you are a pigg you play liike a fucking monkey bye;)
sorry but are u dumb ? have u ever hear do f marco minneman ? hes way beter then travis and dont even put travis on the list of buddy rich and neil peart
well thats ok cuz i dont no who Travis Barer is. I do no that travis barker is a good, talented drummer. even tho ill admit he's over-hyped (too many ppl believe that hes the only best drummer, u kno?). however, this doesnt mean he sucks. if u can provide proof that he "sucks" then ew could actually have a good argument, but right now, ur mom can suck on the hairiest part of my balls :)
Well I sure as hell can't do that, I just started drumming not long ago. But from watching vids of Mike Portnoy and one other, I can't remember his name, this seems amatuer. Definetly not the "Best Drummer in the world PERIOD", Sweetvell.
Erm, as far as a creative punk drummer goes, he writes inventive beats and turns them around and loops quite well. I personally think Jordan Burns from Strungout shows more flair. However I dontthink either are the BEST? How can you rate the BEST on a handful of lucky stars? the BEST is probably livin in a bedsit somewhere and works as say a drum tech, or tutor or some shit.
The best drummer ever would be Derrick Plourde, but Travis is the second best drummer, i don't even like Boxcar Racer or Blink-182, I like him in the Transplants and he is still a good drummer in Blink-182 even though I don't like that band.
argh...all this joey vs travis nonsense... if you asked joey to play some samba or jazz, he'd probably look all confused and then try and distract you with double bass.. im no travis fan boy but i can at least appreciate that he has a huge back catalogue of styles he can fit in to.. he put jazz fusion pieces into punk songs, and its really really good...
dude travis is the best due to the beats he drums . its like guitar . man yea metal solo might be harder sometime . but its all crappy and sht . and so goes to the metal drums .
Travis Barker ranks about 500th place on the list of best drummers in the world, maybe you guys should look into Jazz, Rhythm+Blues, Metal, Death Metal, Jungle, or ANY other genre besides poprock. And for the love of all music ever created, stop saying that 'X' drummer or guitarist or bassist or vocalist is 'the best in the world omg!' You obviously have not seen what the world has to offer children. Go, explore!
Travis is not one of the most influential drummers today, unless you mean influential to young kids who wish they could play drums at all.
I'm sorry for crashing your little fan-party people, I'm just tired of all the slipknot/blink182/korn/etc. fans that just LOVE their band, so naturally the musicians in said band must be the best in the world.
sicklesickle: For your information, Travis is counted as one of the most influential and talented drummers today. His diveristy and high levels of performance in many different styles of music make him stand out as one of the greats.
In a room of amateur drummers Travis Barker would own, but in the real world of superb drummers he's middlin' level. Get a clue people, just because you enjoy Blink182 doesn't make their drummer the 'best in the world.'
ur an idiot. There are drummers out there who r good at recording for artist, or with their bands, and then there are drummers who r good at doing solo's. if u havnt notices, travis is amazing at both. on all the blink recordings travis goes off. and on solo's he goes off. he can play any style u throw at him.
amazing, for those of u who dont know, hes recording " HERES YOUR LETTER" off of the Slef Titled Blink cd. its the end of the last chorus and the outro..
