[Disturbed058x]

I <3 Mike..best drummmmerrrrrr :)

[TheHobbitofDune]

Greatest drummer of all time. I don't care what the elitist snobs have to say about how he isn't the most proficient or fastest drummer ever, he loves what he does, he makes very amazing beats, and he is very accurate, and his drumming just clicked with me, so i love him more. Fuck off Neil Peart, Mike Portnoy, and The Rev fanboys!

[33Silkee]

love u mike

[somberdrums]

of course he used doubles on damn near every song of the sickness. it just not constant notes like he uses on the newer albums

[Tommy Romero]

"decent drummer"--Simple? Dude, slow intricate SOLID ASS double bass with finesse hat or cymbal strikes isn't easy. Also you cant get the power of double bass with one foot. If you don't believe me pick a song of disturbed and learn it, really learn it exactly the way its played,,EXACTLY the way its played hit for hit,, hat pulses everything and you'll gain respect for Mike and feel what hes doing.

[ManiacalXManiac]

'Guarded' used double bass... Oh wow did it use double bass.

[decentdrummer911]

That makes it even more sad then lol, that he plays those simple bass beats with 2 pedals.

[Samuel L. Bro]

chicago is in illinois bonehead lol.

[Tommy Romero]

OMG WAR DRUMMER HOW RIDICULOUS hahahaha he does not repeat DOES NOT mainly use one foot...AND indestructible was NOT the first he used double,, haha,, wow dont know where you got that..

[squirrelgrunt]

He almost never uses 1 foot, basically all of his beats accent the guitar and he's always using 2 feet.
