Sure you do...I'm a big time rock/metal fan myself...always will be. Fusion and jazz/latin are an aquired taste. I like it alright but it ain't where my soul is, but if you dig rock, that's great. Remember there is no shame being an "authentic" rock player. It's not as easy as everybody makes it out to be. In fact, most drummers get mediocre at it and then move on thinking Jazz and Latin are the pinnacle in drumming. Horse pucky. Every genre is as viable as the next IMHO.
Did you happen to see the David Sylvera session interview in EQ a few months ago? You would not believe the expense and detail they went to to record "Ass Moaner".... In fact I would bet you dollars to donuts 3/4 of the previous post nominees did not have 1/2 of that intensive production involved in the recording.
So you, in my opinion, are very justified in liking Korn's drum sound. It's great!

Yea, rock is definitely a viable genre, as is country, folk, bluegrass, zydeco, etc, etc, etc. You are always welcom here! I personally don't dig Korn, so I am not familiar with his drum sound(but I do remember digging his sound from the first album).
Felix is right. Most drummers say that rock is too easy and is therefore not worth discussing, etc. This is ignorance on their part. It is very difficult to make rock "feel" good, just as it is for any style. Many drummers that play rock leave out some of basic ingredients(there's nothing worse than hearing a rockin tune and not being able to hear the drums cause the dude won't play rimshots, and doesn't know how get a full volume sound from the kick). It's the same thing with blues or country, don't ever let anyone tell you that any one style is more important than another. They are all important, IMHO. I beleive you have to decide what's important to you. I personally prefer listening to jazz, fusion,etc, but if I couldn't play rock,pop, blues, I certainly wouldn't get much work in Austin, so they are ALL important to me.

Now James, you know we love you. We're not going to hold it against you because you play vibes. Hell, someone has to! I bet you're a great typist and a hell of a cook too!  I remember setting up the mics for the duet of Gary Burton and Makoto Ozone. Man can they play! How anyone can watch Gary play and not be impressed is beyond me. -- Rob |

Danny Carey....man his drums sound great on every album, especially Aenima and Lateralus.
There's one artist/album that I'm surpried no one has mentioned yet. Gregg Bissonette's album Submarine. I love the way he tunes his toms. If you've never seen him live, man you are missing out. I've seen him in clinic twice. By the way, a little trivia question...Gregg tunes his toms to the bassline from a particular song. Does anyone know what song it is?

Back to the "Level 42" days again....The Bass player(no....dont BOO---HISS.....hes brilliant)Mark King made a solo album in the late 80's called "Influences". He obviously played bass BUT he played the drums on it (he started on drums) It has that perfect tight funk sound (not shure if any kind of gating was used)
To add to this, in the 80's I used to do part time security at a truck (lorry, as we say here in Brit Land)depot and i wasnt allowed the TV so I used to take my kit into work and work on tech......well.......I now know how Bohnam got the sound...My Sonor has never sounded that good ever again.....even dropping the sticks on the concrete floor sounded fantastic......If you can, try it out.

This should be a fun thread. Name some albums with your favorite drum sounds. Man, there's so mush drum sounds I like that will be very difficult to say it all, but I really like Neil Peart drum sounds in the Test for Echo album, I also likes Mike Portnoy in the Scenes from a Memory album, even knowing that its drum sounds are almost "constructed"... :-/ |

Dave Matthews Band's Carter Beauford on their Live at The Red Rocks album, the song - tripping billies. Gotta be one of my favorite peices for the drums, so concise and fast.

Some sounds I like are-
John Siomos- Frampton comes alive
Bev Bevan- Any ELO. I like the muffled sound they get with the effects and such
Bob Siebenberg-Any Supertramp. Clean and Crisp

RHCP's Chad Smith on Bloodsugarsexmagik. The whole drum sound is great but what a killer snare sound!!!
Yeah, Ian Mosley's drum sound is great on Misplaced Childhood. Marillion's live CD "The Thieving Magpie" sounds very good also.
Also, I always like Nicko McBrain's sound on the Live After Death album.

Great thread! Lots of interesting fav's. Too bad I wasn't around when it started. Here's my 2 cents:
My favorite recorded drum sound ever is Joe Morello on "Far More Drums" on Dave Brubecks "Time Further Out" album. To me, that's the way a drum kit should sound. Big booming open but no ring or long sustain. That tune also has my favorite recorded drum solo, and it's in 5/4.
I also like the sound of Steve Gadd's toms on the solo (actually a duet with another drummer whose name escapes me), he did on the Stuff album "Live in New York." They have a kind of techno sound (the antithesis of Morello's sound) although I believe it is a recording of genuine accoustic drums.

Lots and lots. A few:
Aaron Comess' drums on the Spin Doctors' first CD.
Omar Hakim - with Sting and Special EFX
Just about any John Bonham.
Just about any Police song, especially "Walking on the Moon" and "Murder by Numbers"
Carter Beauford - the crispness and clarity of his recorded playing is pretty amazing.
Matt Chamberlain's drums on the Wallflowers' "One Headlight"
I'll stop now.
