as you can see im a metal head
i like jazz and blues but not as much as metal
and alternative rock
nevertheless i was not shocked to see my idols appearing in this article
well this are my favourites
comment me on yours :)
let me know
i'm open to everyones opinion
and the list below are MY favs :) thanks
-------------------------------------------------------
1.Lars Ulrich
Born - 11/1963 | Nationality - Danish |
Genre - Heavy Metal
Proof that you don't need to rely on super-chops to rise to the top of the rock pile, Lars Ulrich applies solid rather than scintillating skills to the kit, excelling at short, single-stroke rolls and double kick drums. He has an ear for unusual rhythms, and if big cymbals are your thing, look no further. One of rock's great drummers.
Top 5 tracks:
1. Motorbreath (Metallica)
2. Fight Fire With Fire (Metallica)
3. And Justice For All (Metallica)
4. Sad But True (Metallica)
5. Frantic (Metallica)
you've got too love the Ulrich :) unusual beats and good sense of rhythm made me love this guy :)

2.Mike Portnoy
Born - 04/1967 | Nationality - American |
Genre - Progressive Metal
Prog metal was a joke when Mike co-founded Dream Theater, but they have redefined the genre, releasing albums of complexity and ambition. Some think that DT sacrificed good songwriting for technicality, but 10 million album sales can't be wrong?
Top 5 tracks:
1. Pull Me Under (Dream Theater)
2. The Mirror (Dream Theater)
3. A Change Of Seasons (Dream Theater)
4. Just Let Me Breath (Dream Theater)
5. Kindred Spirits (Liquied Tension Experiment)
he's the portnoy? what else is there to say :) a bigg influence on me he is good
-------------------------------------------------------
Dave Grohl
Born - 01/1969 | Nationality - American |
Genre - Rock
Dave's combination of hardcore power, punk fury, and hard rock grooving was essential to Nirvana's sound. His massive subsequent success with the Foo Fighters and many guest spots for Queens Of The Stone Age, Juliette And The Licks, Killing Joke, and even Tenacious D have cemented his place as alternative rock's most recognisable drummer.
Top 5 tracks:
1. Smells Like Teen Spirit (Nirvana)
2. Drain You (Nirvana)
3. Monkey Wrench (Foo Fighters)
4. My Poor Brain (Foo Fighters)
5. No One Knows (Queens Of The Stone Age)
the grohl, a mighty fucking beast on drums :) started out with nirvana now running his own four man crew The Foo Fighters. One of my favourite bands :) live on grohl. can't wait for your next album :) theres nothing bad you can say about him
-------------------------------------------------------
Joey Jordison
Born - 04/1975 | Nationality - American |
Genre - Heavy Metal
You wouldn't want to find him in your wardrobe, but the scariest thing about Jordison is the brutal double kick work that has elevated his band 'Slipknot' from pantomime villains to metal overlords since 1999's Slipknot album. He is the face, hands and feet of modern metal. No wonder he's #1.
Top 5 tracks:
1. Surfacing (Slipknot)
2. Opium Of The People (Slipknot)
3. The Blister Exists (Slipknot)
4. Duality (Slipknot)
5. Danger - Keep Away (Slipknot)
everyones favourite joey jordison :) hahaha one of metals most famous drummers. famous for his amazing double bass. not the best but certainly ONE OF the best
