Your Favorite Drummer(s)

Of course Jojo Mayer is my fave.

Some live jungle, etc:

what do you get when you crossbreed a drummer and a chimp?

Holt shit, is his snare always that low?

Danny Carey (Tool), Abe Cunningham (Deftones), Topper Headon (The Clash), Glenn Kotche (Wilco), Stewart Copeland (The Police), anyone who played with James Brown in the '60s... I also quite like Roxy Music's rhythm section and drum tracks in general (Paul Thomson was their drummer during their better years). And yeah, on the math rock front, John Stanier from Battles and Damon Che from Don Caballero.

I feel tempted to mention Dave Grohl because of what he did with Nirvana and on that QOTSA album, but he's taken a big drop over the years in my consideration as a serious musician.

i like the dude from the cinematic orchestra

Dave King of The Bad Plus

He has to be experienced live. His presence and sensitivity as a musician is something I rarely experience in other musicians.

Love Dave King.

Don't like anything about Battles, and futhermore don't think they deserve to be on Warp.

also love Chris Dave, Marg Guiliana, Tony Allen, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams.

Thanks, Japan.

Janks.

Haha I thought I was the only Koenji fan in the world.

When I used to have a gnarly coke habit I used to speed around blasting these guys, trying to sing alone.

Good times.

I was going to say John Stanier too haha. I actually love battles, although I would agree they are a strange act to have on warp. Fucking epic live. :) The drummers in Mice Parade are great too, but the lead guy is a big fat cockhead.

Orestes Morfin (Bitch magnet)

Billy Ficca (Television)

Chris Brokaw (codeine)

Roland (Big Black)

I'd say Magma's Christian Vander. Stunning drummer/performer. Kind of like a mix between a jazz and rock drummer, he can play insanely complex rhythms effortlessly with a mad "in your face" energy.

My favorite drummers are: Billy Cobham, Jojo Mayer, John Bonham, Danny Carey, Igor Cavalera, Dave Grohl.

Greg Saunier from Deerhoof is great. I love how he can just go totally apeshit on such a minimal setup.[youtubehd]4laVvRawXz0[/youtubehd]

Yeah, he slays on kick hat snare ride.
