Best Drummers

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Great drummer indeed, Cant agree with you about the Napster thing im afraid. I sold all my Metallica stuff, and wont got to download which is a pity as there are a load of bands there ide love to see. Sadly only the top few get paid.

You just cant hit the kids that put you where you are now. At the time they would have been delighted if copies of their albums could be downloaded for free. Its indeed a boon for so many smaller signed acts.

On a lighter note... Igor Cavalera from Sepultura can do things with drums that I've never heard anyone else do. The guy's a god.

And Padstar is correct, it certainly is "a matter of amplitude".

Nice one Ness. Two drummers or none.

Except for the already mentioned Mr Moon, and the late lamented
Razzle, who was the only other one who could look as unco-ordinated as Keef but get the mental beat right.

Until it exploded, a computerized drum machine was used to record some songs on "Break Like the Wind."
