Vote for Lars Ulrich 1) Lars Ulrich
Ulrich is a great skilled drummer and a excellent rock composer

he is the best drummer ever exist.

Vote for Keith Moon 2) Keith Moon
The best ever. No discussion. And not a turd like Ulrich.

Lars Ulrich doesn’t deserve to be in the top 10. He used pro tools. Back when Keith Moon and John Bohnham were around they didn’t even have software like pro tools. I can’t believe John isn’t on this list.

best drummer ever, revolutionized drumming

I think Ringo Starr played a major role in most of the Beatles songs not only because of his unique drum beat and charisma but his natural talent as a drummer.

Vote for Jimmy Chamberlin 26) Jimmy Chamberlin
Drummer of Smashing Pumpkins and he has a solo project too. He’s the best when it comes to make some paradidles in the snare drum and I have to mention that he is knows how to give a great feeling to every song. He has a fast and smart jazz-like playing style. I love to hear his songs.
