I always thought Triviums first drummer Travis Smith was an incredible talent. Seems like he hasn’t done anything since leaving
Love the work he did with W.A.S.P.I thought Frankie Benali was just an OK drummer until I heard him on the WASP records, specifically The Crimson Idol. He was really holding back (or held back) with Quiet Riot! Today is the 2nd anniversary of his death.
Bobby Jarzombeck BY FAR. He's a sick MF'r. Halford, Fates Warning, Arch/Mateos, he's up there in my top 3-4. If Rush decided to tour, he's the guy. His footwork is amazing.
Dave McClain from Machine Head certainly gets no love.
Eloy Cassagrande is way up there too. He's without a doubt, the heaviest hitter I've seen.
Pete Webber is another.
He was in Sabbath when I saw them in San Francisco in 1982 . One of the best shows I've ever seenOne guy who comes to mind for me even though he’s well known is Vinny Appice. I think because he’s never been a crazy, over the top kind of player he is underrated in the metal and hard rock world, but that’s kind of what makes him stand out to me. When you listen to any of his stuff with Dio or Sabbath, there’s actually a lot going on with his playing but it’s in the beat and the dynamics and the hihat and stuff. Some people probably don’t realize how important his playing is to those albums.
Inlet was a goddamned masterpiece.Bryan St. Pere
He’s also based, had a Truth Social account until the controversy got so bad they shut him down.Chad Sexton from 311. His drumming is so fucking tight and all his accents are perfect.
