![]() ![]() He is an ambidextrous drummer.Īmazing ambidextrous drummer. Igor is the best drummer in my opinion, hands down he an lombardo a close 2nd.ġ1 Randy Black (Annihilator, Primal Fear) Randy Black is a Canadian-born metal drummer and recording artist best known for his stints as the drummer for Annihilator, Primal Fear, Duskmachine, and Bif Naked. a wesome!īeneath the Remains - the most insane drumming in thrash metal history! Listen to any thrashy Sepultura song and the first thing you hear is the great man Igor Cavalera Just listen to his drum work in Beneath The Remains, Arise & Chaos AD. I'd say he's underrated because all people know is Lombardo, Ulrich or Menza but Igor is the best of all. ![]() Igor Cavalera is seriously a great drummer. The intro on Territory is one of the greatest drum intros in heavy metal history. The album Arise is probably his best album. Igor spent 20 years in Sepultura before forming Cavalera Conspiracy with his brother, Max. Max left the band in 1996, and Cavalera himself would depart ten years later, making him the last original member of Sepultura. ![]() He is best known as the former drummer for Brazilian heavy metal band Sepultura, which he co-founded with his brother Max in 1984. Metallica's early albums defined thrash metal.Ĩ Igor Cavalera (Sepultura, Cavalera Conspiracy) Igor Graziano Cavalera is a Brazilian musician. He's just lucky he has real talent around him. Worst drummer ever, even he admits he's not great. What is this talentless hack doing on this list? Metallica should've permanently kept Joey Jordison or Dave Lombardo in the band after the 2004 Download Festival and fired Lars, and Lars should've joined Nickelback as Ryan Vikedal's replacement. Yes, he probably is, if you look at it from a purely technical sense. Saying Lombardo is better than Ulrich is like saying Steve Vai is a better guitarist than Jimmy Hendrix. Yes, they might have taken the Thrash Drumminh on further over the last 30 years, but always remember, they're basically just copying Lars. Everyone else on the list is basically imitating him. Mangini and Annihilator are staples of how thrash metal should be graded.ħ Lars Ulrich (Metallica) Lars Ulrich is a Danish drummer and one of the founding members of the American thrash metal band Metallica. And better.Īnnihilator's Alice in Hell earned the band critical acclaim. Mangini admitted that Annihilator's stuff made him learn to play faster and faster. But he was great before that, when played for Annihilator - he was just more underrated than now. This guy has been getting more attention since he joined Dream Theater in 2011. Speed is not everything but Mike Mangini is officially the fastest metal drummer. Nobody else (except Randy Black - the other Annihilator drummer) can handle both thrash drumming and prog metal drumming at his level of technical skills.Īnnihilator's technical thrash requires both thrash and prog skills (Randy Black also combines these 2 types of drumming skills another thing in common is that both Mike Mangini and Randy Black are ambidextrous). Since 2010, he has been a member of progressive metal band Dream Theater, following the departure of founding drummer Mike Portnoy. I can listen to a single song tons of times and still have my mind blown away at his drumming.Ħ Mike Mangini (Annihilator) Mike Mangini is an American drummer. Just amazing, certain my numero uno influence.Ĭan't resist to headbang when listening to Slayer/Testament Dave does an amazing job. Dave has amazing endurance, great rhythm, fills, and really took the double bass machine to a new level in the early days. I have seen Lars Ulrich try to play Raining Blood and it's an epic fail every time.īy far THE best and most technical thrash metal drummers in history. I think John Dette is the best replacement, but he's still not Lombardo. It is a testament to how good Lombardo is that all the drummers that play with Slayer play slower live and that they still don't get the power hit on the drums, despite Slayer slowing down the songs for the replacement drummers. Some of the faster drummers lose the power hit on the drums, not Lombardo. Most players rely too much on it.įast, accurate, incredible transitions. He utilizes the double bass sparingly and only when it accentuates the song. His work on South of Heaven is the epitome of what all thrash drumming should strive to achieve. 2 Dave Lombardo (Slayer, Testament) David "Dave" Lombardo is a Cuban American drummer, best known as a co-founding member of the American thrash metal band Slayer. ![]()
