Another superb drummer whom I shamefully forgot to mention is Jim Brock. A truly extraordinary drummer. His new CD is well worth the effort.

I think the guy who drums for System of a Down is really good. He puts in a lot of subtle nuances and changes up the rythym where you'd least expect it. ie. toxicity

I have to say that first I haven't read all six pages of this thread. Also Im not a drummer, but a bass player. One of my favorite rock or hard rock drummers is Danny Carey.

Dunno about Ringo, but Zack Starkey is amazing. Currently slitting drumming duties between Oasis and The Who. Dave Grohl- definitely!

I have to agree with one of desbah's picks in Mike Portnoy from Dream Theater.
Copy and paste the following links to get some idea of what it is that he does.
