Favorite Drummer?

[TRENCHLORD]

George Kollias

Morgan Argen, probably. That's a tough question, though.
Honorable mentions are definitely:

Brann Dailor
Thomas Pridgen

Hate all you want, Matt Greiner is a nasty and thoughtful drummer.

Hate all you want, Matt Greiner is a nasty and thoughtful drummer.

He's definitely not bad, but I HATEHATEHATE the way he plays hat/cymbal and snare at the same time on thrash beats. It sounds lazy, it can throw off the beat, and it makes him look like a retard.

 

[JamesM]

I disagree on two counts, the second point you made being true--it can.

But that's what opinions are all about I guess.
