Incredible Drum Line

Thanks Deneen!

The only information I could gather about them is that they are a top secret group from Switzerland.

He's no Mike Portnoy, but he's pretty darn good. Actually, he might be very close - almost as good, but he's nowhere near as creative, IMHO. I've heard & seen dozens of solos better than this one, at least at the beginning. The single-stroked accelerated drum roll, along with the last few minutes of the video are where he shines - he's got incredibly fast hands!! ..Starting at about 4:05 to the end is insane.

The 100 Best Rock Drummers Ever

Mike Portnoy, Dream Theater

Well, here it is, The 100 Best Rock Drummers Ever! From early rock 'n' rollers, to metal powerhouses, we've listed the best rock drummers the world has ever seen.

Of course, music and drumming is subjective, and everyone will have their own idea of who the best drummers are. You might not agree with the list and that's fine. It's more of a ball park ranking than anything truly exact.

Ok, we'll start off at the bottom and work our way up to the coveted number one spot.
