5)travis barker (blink 182)

[jessedale1992]

@davidofchinkov41 travis barker is not that great, hes is good dont get me wrong but not top 5 at all, chris adler def deserves a shot in the top 5, dude is one of the most creative and smart drummers there is today, and tre cool, really??

[davidofchinkov41]

@jessedale1992 Dude, I'm just saying my opinion man o_o no need to get cynical. That may be your opinion but mines different . I just think metal drummers who know how to play fast blast beats are too overrated, whereas drummers like Travis Smith or Tre Cool tend to play in a unique way than typical styles from most metal/drummers are accustomed to.

We all have different taste to music+drummers.

All drummers are different. Some are geniuses+some are intelligent and all have different styles.

[Hauss67]

You should check out danny carrey of tool

[twofacedpenguin92]

[HyphyG123]

[merdosodasdusias]

1. The Rev

2. Mike Portnoy

3. Sean Lang

4. Joey Jordinson

5.Travis Barker

[supertoby1997]

I like it how everybody's sayin that travis is the only good one on the list,, when in actual fact they don't even know how hard it is to play drums :L Joey Jordison is a deserving winner in my opinion, they only say travis should have won because they like blink 182

[supertoby1997]

5. Tre Cool

4. Travis Barker

3. Taylor Hawkins

2. Dave Grohl

1. Joey Jordison

[draugsvoll01]

This list sucks.

It should be like this:

5: Dave Lombardo

4. Chris Adler

3. Mike Mangini

2. Mike Portnoy

1. Neil Peart

[rpsmith014]

@draugsvoll01 Neil Peart is an emotionless technique robot.

Daniel Patrick Adair from Nickelback is pretty good too

[cptjackdrummer1]

@DWdrummer1995 i love you because your so right. (no homo)

[timekiller1991]

travis barker is the only good one on here mancino is ok and jordison isnt good at all. check out phil collins, john bonham, mike portnoy, dylan elise, daniel adair, arthur kam, and jacob armen to name a few. Just listing these so you can get a taste of what real drummers are like.

[0666godisdead0666]

@timekiller1991 if you dont think jordison is good you are dumb you should see what he has done in and out of slipknot and the awards he has won

[wolfsrain484]

[theishjort]

[king000546]

the only drummer that stands out and is the best out of these 5 is chris adler which is one of my favorite drummers the rest are average and way too overrated yes they are good but damn if these are your favorite all time drummers then you haven't really seen what heavy metal and rock n roll has to offer but overall we all have are own opinions im just telling you mine for exampe check out the drummer for animals as leaders

[wiseguymarc]

[silverdark43]

[dakki12345]

[proLFCfan]

[LittleLefty26]

[mertokay619]

Travish Barker and Joey Jordison <3

[champ1114]

fuckin double bass bullshit omg

[border4ev]

You think it would be Joey, Travis, Lars, Jordan, Chris. But this is what he thinks so im not gonna bash

[1698990]

R.I.P Paul Gray

[Calbenmike]

5.) Lance Garvin--Living Sacrifice

4.) Adam Gray--Texas in July

3.) Jordan Mancino--As I Lay Dying

2.) Devin Chaulk--Haste the Day

#1. Matt Greiner--August Burns Red

[Byobrulez]

All of your choices are on spot but.. Joey Jordison? Number 1? Really?

And where's the dude from August Burns Red?

[Rustedhook]

Guys. That drummer from As I Lay Dying is OK, just not very technical. As for all of the others, i think they deserve a spot, no doubt. But i mean Jimmy Sullivan(The Rev) isn't on this list.

[DrummingKid101]

@Rustedhook jordan mancino? are you kidding? ok? the rev is just known well cuz of A7X...thats what made him big...i understand hes good and i love him but the as i lay dying drummer isnt just 'ok'

[Rustedhook]

@DrummingKid101 Hmm... After seeing his other stuff, he is quite good. But i stand by my first statement. Not very technical.

[JAMBEANO56]

@DrummingKid101 Personally The Rev is my favorite drummer, but I uderstand why he's not on others lists. But I think he should be on almost everyones favorite muysician list. The guy was a musical genius.

[Crusada54]

@JAMBEANO56 Haha. Miles Davis was a music genius. The "Rev" played metal. Far from genius. BLAST BEAT BLAST BEAT BLAST BEAT

[JAMBEANO56]

@Crusada54 HAHAHA.....The Rev played guitar, piano, sang, and played drums. He wrote many guitar riffs which the highly popular Avenged Sevenfold use and are famous for. He played piano on "Warmness on the soul". He layed the foundation for the best song ever written "Save Me". He wrote "A Little Piece Of Heaven". Don't disrespect The Rev by calling him just "a metal drummer". He had a briliant mind when writing music.

[Crusada54]

@JAMBEANO56 The best song ever written? Please. Don't try and pass off such bullshit.

[JAMBEANO56]

@Crusada54 Oh, it is the best song ever written. In every facet of the music game. Lyrics, guitar riffs, drums, fills, breakdowns, solo's, leads, everything. BEST EVER. Seeing as you pulled out Miles Davis' name, I can see you're not too competent with music, so I will end this back and forth. Thank you for your time. That is all.

[Crusada54]

@JAMBEANO56 On November 5, 2009, Rep. John Conyers of Michigan sponsored a measure in the US House of Representatives to recognize and commemorate the album Kind of Blue on its 50th anniversary. The measure also affirms jazz as a national treasure and "encourages the United States government to preserve and advance the art form of jazz music." It passed, unanimously, with a vote of 409–0 on December 15, 2009. Does the "Rev" have any songs that have become a national treasure? *cough cough*

[JAMBEANO56]

@Crusada54 Saying that the government likes it doesn't really make it better. The government also pushes christianity on all of us. It's a "National Treasue". And it's the biggest crock of it all. Not trying to make this into a argument of beliefs. Plus the album "Kind of Blue" was around for fifty years. Who are you to say in fifty years "Save Me" won't be a national treasure?

[Crusada54]

@JAMBEANO56 Realising I am arguing with you about this made me feel sad. I should not have entered this debate. Clearly in this case ignorance is bliss.

[JAMBEANO56]

@Crusada54 You shouldn't have. I told you why I thought The Rev should be in everyones top musicians list, and you attacked it. I just stated my opinion and you acted like the child and started the argument. So shame on you.

p.s. I ended this a few posts ago, so I will end it now to. That...Is...all...

[Mikefranklin75]

@JAMBEANO56 all i have to say about the "Save Me" thing, (and trust me, i'm a HUGE a7x fan) "Save Me" won't be a national treasure. lol Beast and the Harlot, Second Heartbeat, and hell, maybe even Gunslinger. a LOT of their older stuff quite possibly. haha really the only input I have on the list would be Vinnie Paul.

[JAMBEANO56]

@Mikefranklin75 Save Me won't be a national treasure because the average music fan doen't like music that long or with that kind of meaning. It's sad, really. But I think it's the best thing ever written. And that's all that matters to me.

[punk9999643]

@JAMBEANO56 well it's a shame he didn't show it in his drumming.

[JAMBEANO56]

@punk9999643 It's also a shame you will probably never achieve anything in life. The man is dead and shitty little comments like that are uncalled for. Disagree with me. Don't bash his talent.

[punk9999643]

@JAMBEANO56 Ohhh, i don't like a drummer so now i'm not going anywhere in life. Thanks, that means a lot.

And why the fuck are you getting all offended for? You don't know him and he doesn't know you. Don't stand up for a fucking stranger.

[JAMBEANO56]

@punk9999643 Don't talk shit on a dead man. A simple, "I disagree" would have worked.

[maxperesdias]

Dave Lombardo?

[MrGraphicBastard]

could i suggest brann dailor of Mastodon, he drums to match the gioitarists it's beastly

[OoohAPurpleTurtle]

joey may not be the best but he is still a fucking nutter on the set :P

[rockme1337]

Lars Ulrich would be 3rd. I'd add in Mike Portnoy somewhere... and probably take out Travis Barker (he's not that good of a technical drummer imo)

[rockme1337]

Lars Ulrich would be 3rd. I'd add in Mike Portnoy somewhere... and probably take out Travis Barker (he's not that good of a technical drummer)

[nedeljkotubonjic]

how can u be forgetting Jordan Mancino...???lol

[jaketessier]

see. i watch videos like these sometimes and it makes me laugh because they are all from different genras. the video isnt bad or anything. but you can compare matallica to slipknot.

other than that video is good.

[eatu4t01]

how can u be forgetting Matt greiner!? lol

[suzano54]

And Igor Cavalera??????????

[Poodlefang89]

That was a very good list of drummer's my favorite is Matt Griener from August Burns Red and my second favorite is Jordan Mancino. I'm not hating on your list good job thanks for making this video I enjoyed it.

[fordfan197]

wat about Nick Menza? nah i know it is his personal favourite

[Theheavymetalscott]

They might be your favourite drummers but some of them are fuggin' terrible compared to the greats.

[iAmDeathSpank]

Maybe watching /watch?v=GHkucr1jJpQ will make you reconsider your list. (:

[lucaslp95]

One of the best top man!! goodone e.e

[PureHayabusa]

i think travis barker's pants were falling down in his snare solo there... faggot LOL, as i lay dying isnt all that they came around to Australia last monday which was 4 days ago for the record and they werent up there, AND WHY IS MIKE WENGREN NOT IN THERE AND WHY IS JOEY FIRST

[Tys602]

Joey is good but he is in no way better than Chris Adler

[IsaacThePeterson]

You are crazy, Jordam Mancino is the best, live or in studio. kick drum of him is very strong.

[jibrox12]

yeah!!!!

[Halocopter2]

Wheres Matt Greiner haha?

[ERArulesdood]

@Halocopter2 thats what i was thinking

[Fory7CZ]

Travis Barker is best ! 

[andy7fold]

GUYS!!! why isnt the Rev on here?? he totally pwns all this losers! :D

[Mohh2haxer]

@andy7fold So your saying Joey Jordison and Chris Alder are losers? I agree with you Jimmy Sullivan should be in here but Joey and Chris are certainly not losers >.>

[MrTonzler]

Srsly <.<, The title says his favorite not the best drummers, l2read before commenting

[MultiDrummer23]

Travis is better than joey

[idog2rs]

Look up Travis Orbin TRX demo. He's the drummer from Sky eats airplane. HE SOOOO FRIKKEN GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[killer123456789hhhhh]

travi's the best you bastards

[elzichco2]

you are ignorant of good drummers

[alexgerber102]

@3922pd it takes huge amounts of musical prowess and talent to be a metal drummer.

[champ1114]

@alexgerber102 hahahahaha

[alexgerber102]

Everybody, this is an opinion video...chill out. And drumming is about keeping time for the band while adding a base for the music all whilst putting your all into playing. These guys do that. So stop trolling.

[dminoccheri]

travis barker is a fucking"punk"ok a good drummer but ........

[3922pd]

so slamming double bass drum notes makes you a good drummer. I think 4 of these guys are skilled in their own way but as considered to be musically talented, they are trash. These garbage is just that, garbage. I would take just about anyone over these guys. Barker isnt bad and Ulrich isnt bad either but the other three, as far as music goes, are GARBAGE. Sorry. I know you said this guy has a right to post his favorite. Well he did it on the world wide web. Sorry, ridicule = internet.

[LimPanTheDrummer]

mike portnoy should be number one here...

[fforflaww]

XD cant have joey without clown 

[1Trienke]

wtf jouy te best

[lumpyandbump1]

travis really isnt that good at drums. he knows his way around a kit, but none of his work is like awesome

[thinius3626]

Joey is the best :DDDDD

[jgabrielpm]

where is George Kollias?????

[GreenDrums1234]

#5. Jojo Mayer #4. Chris Adler #3.Virgil Donati #2. George Kollias #1. Thomas Lang

[MrHolm5]

Lars is not even in the top 5 billion. He sucks so fucking hard.

[ItalianBooshFan]

WOOO HOOO JOEY IS THE BEST!

[whiteweding1]

Lars is garbage.

[GreenDrums1234]

@whiteweding1 word



[chaostheorydesign]

Lars is a loser, not even in the top 20, much less the top 5.

[annamaysdaddy]

Look up Jason Brittner 180 BPM on single peddals with double bass he used to hold a world record for that song look it up nuff said!

[DBdare1000]

What about Alex Grind from Despised Icon

[Magabury]

Anyone ever notice he spelled Chris' last name wrong? It's Adler, not Alder.

[marralis]

In terms of top 5 drummers alive today this should be the order 5. Jordan Mancino 4. George Kollias 3.Terry Bozzio 2.Thomas Lang 1.Neil Peart

[Omgffsmf]

Fine if they're your favorite drummers. But I suggest you listen to Buddy Rich, Gavin Harrison, Neil Peart, Steve Gadd, Terry Bozzio, Tomas Haake etc etc... then rethink your choices. I can kind of understand Mancino and Adler (I like Adler alot myself) but the rest... nah.

[SpecialGuy100]

Joey is the best in the world

[HipHopHaterRock4ever]

@SpecialGuy100 LMAO!!! yea okay haha

[dudezofamerica]

WAIT WTF NO NEIL PEART??? u dimbass metal drummers arent the only ones who can drum! really dude c'mon....

[dudezofamerica]

lars is a sellout

[blackarrowrock]

he 4got Tomas Hakee

[chrisrobertson5]

good choices i agree they are all good my fav. band is slipknot so i deff. agree w/ joey

[doublebassrox]

8:41 breakdown?!?! from slipknot? haha that only makes the band and drummer shittier than it already is

[godfollowerr101]

@doublebassrox He is still 100X better then you will ever be.

[doublebassrox]

@godfollowerr101 i blast at 280 beats per minute, joey jordison has never been that that close. all he does is quads and triples and some rolls. not impressive at all, there are 15 year olds better than him. i am better than you will ever be you piece of shit

[godfollowerr101]

@doublebassrox To bad you don't know proper grammar and punctuation. And I can already tell that you are just trying to be cool by making me look like I am some stupid kid, when really, you don't know how good I am. It just makes you look really stupid.

[tccrock]

lars suck

[Cultridens]

Give guy a break!!! He likes this drummers & it's his top five, so shut the f*** up!!!

[Goldtacto]

chris adler is 40 times better than jory

[iHazCavities]

Gotta Love a metallica Concert

[MrRaunchyrhino23]

@KingandQueens12 u mad bro?

[suraxis]

[sktahta07]

[Gundosao]

[METAL713666]

Chris Adler, Jordan Mancino, and Joey Jordinson made up for Travis Barker's incompetence to play a decent rhythm

[MrJofraga323]

wheres the rev and mastodon

Jordisons only good with pedals even clown is better than him.

lars ulrich isnt that great

[MrJofraga323]

[karstd]

I think i agree more with the comments than the video for once. God awful video man.

[theTVremote2697]
