[rinaku10]

dave lombardo is the best

he has everything, precision, technique, speed and most importantly

RHYTHMS, a good drummer is not categorized by how you dress or speed, is classified by the experience and driving rhythms

[LuvDrum8]

[praride]

@LuvDrum8 jimmy is a overrated fag who sucked at drumming

[magicrock1994]

Haters gonna hate

[09cOre]

[bragosng1]

Nobody saw the "My Top 5"? huh? It's HIS top 5.

[randomdude1426]

[lxPRADAxl]

[KioHetfield94]

[HeadbangerSinHair]

[kaue819]

[FamousTwinky]

lars ulrich? really...

[david2452]

Isn't the title his/her favorite metal drummers, not the best metal drummers? So cant we all just shut up about who is better than the other?

[Sangahaaa]

Joey is not that good :X

[justmakemeaname]

Im a huge fan of slipknot, but i have to agree that mike is better than joey.

[funnyshnit]

naw joey all the way

[cristianowillian9]

the best is Fede Rabaquino

[ChadTheD00d]

@Jose10568 Even then, Joey doesn't display his speed anymore, he nearly completely changed.

[IDiveI11]

Ok, but who, not counting lombardo plays without triggers?

[ben2nd]

Typical metalhead list

[deicidaldemon]

Jordisen is great need years to proove himself like Lombardo and Lars he is good drummer but not in top 3 maybe im just die hard fan of tallica

[hijodeslipknot]

guys guys, wait, is the top 5 let him decide who is the inside or outside, if you do not want to put others, the problem is you did, please abstain from saying stupid things or insults, do not be stupid like the guy who says lars sucks cock, guys like the sound of the most harmful for society.

[cottenswab9000]

joey over portnoy? really?

[bigjordan456]

I respect this guy's opinion on drummers of course, but seriously dude, check out tomas haake of meshuggah. hell, there are a lot of drummers that could fit into the TOP 5 or whatever top #, but thats not really the point. they are all unique musicians who have made it it far with the bands they play in. i only suggest tomas because he is almost like a culmination different drummers from styles of metal you seem to like, is an incredible musician and part of the band that innovated "Djent"

[MultiKrissss]

and phil collins, the best drummer of world.( sorry, my english is very bad, falou!!!)

[D3thPunch99]

[Harborien]

@Jose10568

haha is must admit, mike is good, but I saw an drum solo of him and sorry but it was all just show, Joey pwns him with a basic kit because of his speed prescicion technique,

joey has played with metallica system of a down and korn because Joey is the most deticated drummer on earth

[AlterBridgefanc]

@Harborien Nice joke idiot.

[dadicesare]

SLIPKNOT _ JOE JORDISON - FOI CONSIDERADO O MELHOR BATERISTA DOS ULTIMOS 25 ANOS

[jerodval666]

This should be a list of drummers with best commercial success

[vernon0508]

この順位に異論は無い。

[Aenskyd]

Nick Menza? Maybe?

[IDontDoDrumCovers]

joey is a good drummer but he's a bit overrated

[stoneman619]

EVERYONE LOOK AT THE TITLE REALL CLOSE IT SAYS MY TOP 5 NOT YOURS SO SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE VIDEO SELFISH BASTARDS

[Mpsteve137]

Everyone needs to get off Lars's balls. I think he's a bad ass drummer. Maybe not the best but his technique and style go so good with Metallica, and everyone knows they're the biggest metal band ever. Fuckers.

[sfdksfksdfsdfdfs]

Ulrich is in here? Fuck no

[saifmehra272]

everyone, please search for tomas haake.

all of these drummers are nothing compared to him....

ps: why the fuck is lars on this list?!?!?! o.O

[TheMaidenman123]

@saifmehra272 totally...he beats even adler i think...hes insane..

[TyNordstrom]

how does lars even touch this list haha. and an even better question. how do you put lars next to chris adler in any line-up pretaining to drum skill level.

[icedink87]

wrong! joey shouldn't be on this list... neither should lars

[Mrmetallica300]

@icedink87 wtf are you talking about? joey is one of the sickest drummers out there. hes fucking insane and you couldnt be as good as him in ur life time.

[asishishknot]

Yeah! :D, Joey! \m/

[CarlsonsRaidersUSMC]

2 words...

HAIL VENTOR!!!!!

[WireSprings]

looooooool lars

[beefcake0354]

I'd like to see one of those who say Lars Ulrich sucks shows video of them doing ANY SONG from All Justice For All album ..

[Hankd7812]

Is in*

[Hankd7812]

The title is metal carey in a category of his own

[VJelectro]

wtf! Where is the love for Brann Dailor?

[rolfloucos]

1Gene Hoglan/Dave Lombardo

2Joey Jordison

3Lars Ulrich/Raymond Herrera

[714jada]

lars don't suck his girlfriend doe's

[fyodoroprichnikbasma]

too bad, no one mentions daney carey, thomas haake and virgil donati.

[xTriiNitYxNiz]

AND THATS Y ITS CALLED MY TOP 5 not anyone elses, even tho i say joey isnt better than Portnoy but still its his opinion or she

[TheMetallica83]

Wheres Charlie Benate ?

Better Then Lars

[baturtogay]

A guy(Lars Ulrich) who can't even use double kick is the fifth best metal drummer. Yeah yeah yeah.......

[baturtogay]

5. Joey Jordinson

4. The Rev

3. Mike Mangini

2. Neil Peart

1. Mike Portnoy

[urnamesuxx]

I think it's a pretty good list. Mine would be:

5.Neil Perret from Rush

4.Lars Olrich from Metalica ( Only because he started thrashy drumming)

3.John Dolmayan ( Can't spell his name) from System of a Down

2.John Bohnom ( Can't spell his name either) from Led Zepplin

And Finally,

1.Danny Carey from TOOL (Only because TOOL is my favorite band) \m/ ALL HAIL TOOL \m/ (and Satan)

[TheMarkyy]

the second i clicked the video and lars came up. i knew this video was going to be shit.

[tarsyong]

for number is chris adler!!! he has the good rythem men!!! joey is all about noise and speed no rythem at all!!! got it!!!!???

[beyondwhatwecansee]

Blake. Richardson.

Your opinion no longer matters.

[MultiSasQ]

5:joey jordison

3:george kollias

2:mike portnoy

1: THE REV

[WinternightTragedies]

slipknot lol

ever heard about kai hahto, tim yeung, janne kusmin, david folchitto, horgh ? all better then the mentioned "top 5"

[Blazingblackphoenix]

Joey is One ... Its Gud and I agree

But where is the Rev???

[TheGoreFucking]

George Kollias??? Where is He ? ..... 

[Jablez08]

Seriously.. no one has mentioned George Kollias, Dave Haley or Jason Bittner OR Andols Herrick?

Wow...

[D3r3ct0rsCut]

two things make your list invalid

A: Joey jordison is NOT the best metal drummer. Granted though, he is an outstanding drummer probably landing in 4 or 5

B: the fact that Lars Ulrich is anywhere near this list is laughable. Ive seen 6 year old drum prodigies who can drum better than that fuck-nugget

[MrReservoirdog75]

@D3r3ct0rsCut

lol. lol lol. lets see u do it m8

[xXTheNuFreakXx]

My top 5:

5. Matt Halpern

4. Shannon Lucas

3. Matt Greiner

2. Martin Axenrot

1. Gene Hoglan

[TrainBuffProductions]

What... You overlooked Matt Skitz who was drummer in the band Damaged..

Go to and look at the music video for Nails by Damaged, you will hear one of the best metal drummers who has been way overlooked and underrated.

[2manydrummers]

Lol @ Lars! In 10 minutes of browsing through amateur Drummers on Youtube I can find 10 people that will destroy Lars.

[educan026711]

[123SLIPKNOTRULE]

WHERE THE FUCK IS NICKOMCBRAIN

[chrisadrumz]

Every drummer here is average in the line-up for greatest drummers in the world.

Joey Jordison is the only legend here, though.. He built a unique image and developed on it to become a musician, music clinician, producer and artist.

The rest are just drummers in a band.

You want a good line-up?: Danny Carey, Jon Karel, Thomas Lang, Brann Dailor, Joey Jordison.
