Drummers that suck

[Twilightseer]

There was a fave drummers thread, now is the time to denounce the bad ones, the ugly ones, those who couldn't play to save their lives, the ones that literally make music the equivalent of torture.

I'll start with of course, the horrible Ringo Starr but the one I love to hate is

Bingo ! Jason Cooper, current Cure drummer. Ok, taking over Boris Williams was a hard thing to do but why Smith recruited Cooper is beyond me. This guy can sabotage any Cure song with his lousy drumming. It's so appalling it's not even funny. I simply can't watch the Trilogy DVD any more (heck, I'm now wondering how the hell I could sit through it the first time). This guy ruins EVERYTHING (no joke).

Ok I'm done. Time for you to lash out

you can actually tell that most travis songs are travis songs, simply by listening to the drums. always the same beat.

[Cylob]

The whole Travis band are shite. As they say, Travis shmavis....

I quite liked the percussion on this:


Raw, played with energy and skill. I have no comment on Def Leppard's subsequent releases though.

BTW zootm, Travis are a blight on the scottish name.

Ahhh, the one armed drummer when he had two of them

[Cylob]

Nah!!! You've been (quite understandably) put-off by Def Leppard's later work.

Rick Allen was a drummer supreme. A drummer's drummer.

[ElChevelle]

I'm a fan of almost all Def Leppard stuff. The slow, lovey dovey crap keeps me at bay though.

[Cylob]

Me too. This turned out to be a boy-band album:





But they wrote some of the best rock music of the 80's. So.

[Fickle]

Ringo needs a fork in his eye.

[taylormemer]

Me......

[Kinetik*]

I'd have to say Travis Barker from Blink 182. Or Yuri from MxPx.

:-P

[ViperJackson]

Grant Hart. He's probably the worst drummer I've ever seen, as far as technique goes, but I haven't seen too many drummers' technique.

Meg White

But hell, with a drum set that simple, you can't really...
