I'm shocked to not see Marco Minnemann on this list
one of my favorite drummers ever. Dave McClain of
Machine Head is also a beast. Aquiles Priester is amazing too. Listen to his stuff from
Angra and Hangar. And of course, Dave Lombardo. I also think Charlie Benante of
Anthrax is a little underrated. I also love Carsten Nielson of Artillery. I love his snare, especially from their newer albums like When Death Comes and My Blood. Mike Mangini is also one of the best to ever play the instrument, in my opinion, of course.
Moe Carlson of Protest The Hero is amazing as well. I like pretty much any prog metal drummer
