Would rather have Ringo in my band than Danny Carey. Ringo is the GOAT. Amen. Quote:
The solo in "The End", put it to a metronome and you'll find it's in perfect time. You ever heard "Something"? His playing on the bridge? So sublime. "Rain", "A Day In The Life", "Strawberry Fields Forever"... Even the stuff that sounds "simple" isn't really that simple when Ringo plays it.

Tool only has one song : Maynard sings operatically over the slow atmospheric part, then they pick up speed, Danny Carey plays double bass and goes nuts over the kit, then it explodes into weird noises. The fact that they don't have actual songs but one formula that is "their sound" means that Danny Carey HAS to play the way he does - otherwise, it isn't 'Tool music'.

Not a fan of Tool, however watching the OP's video I didn't see anything that blew me away.
I am a fan of Rush and probably have some bias towards NP. I have been blown away by some of NP's drumming. I agree that there are a number of different styles and trying to pick the GOAT is would be a monumental task. My son is a pretty decent drummer, and I have a lot of respect for all drummers. What they do with their hands a feet at different tempos is pretty amazing to this extremely rhythmically challenged observer. |

Damn dude. I know how silly it is to debate "best" with such a subjective concept like art, but . . . your take is so far removed from reality. Idk.

You just did that, though. You said "Ringo won" in your post previous to this one. What am I missing?

It's okay if you like them, it was just never my thing. Just like I never liked Korn all that much, or Limp Bizkit. Lots of people loved them. Never was a Creed fan. Same with Godsmack and Nickelback. Never was my thing. For my money, Jimmy Chamberlain is probably my favorite drummer of "that style", that busy, over the top prog-rock style of playing. Doesn't mean I'm right or wrong, but I'm a "song" guy. I really like great songs. After Opiate and Undertow, it seems like Tool quit writing songs and just do "Tool sounds". Which is cool, if you're a fan. I'm not.

I will concede one thing, Danny isn't without a doubt the greatest drummer who ever lived...nobody can unequivocally claim that title. But to even put Ringo in the same conversation is downright laughable.

Its not hard to keep a solo in perfect time for an experienced drummer, it's expected and not something to brag about. If you want to hear a perfect example listen to Chocolate Chip Trip and come back to me. While not the best drum solo I've ever heard, its in perfect time and far beyond Ringo's capabilities.

Oh, whatever.
Every Tool song sounds the same. And Tool fans SUCK.

I don't know how someone can listen to Right in Two and Rosetta Stoned and hear the same thing. What?
