Raymond Herrera on the other hand, is possibly not entirely human... he's more of a human/machine hybrid octopus that feeds on the souls of little children.

Bonzo's dead. Bless him.

Dave Grohl's not a drummer. David Silvera's a pinup boy. Never heard of ?uestlove.
I reckon Dave Grohl is an awesome drummer. The stuff he did with Nirvana, early Foo's, Tenacious D and QOTSA was tight. Damn tight.

I really liked David Silvera's symbol work.

?uestlove is the drummer for the Roots. He doesn’t do anything fancy, but he really has some amazing beats. Especially live.

Jeebus, how could I forget my favourite drummer.

Danny Carey from Tool is amazing. I cannot comprehend how some of his work is so quirky with his little skips and stutters. But it all just works beautifully.

I know exactly who Dave Grohl is. I have every fill and every roll and every intro and outro he played for Nirvana imprinted on my mind. I probably lost my drum virginity to Dave Grohl. That doesn't make him a drummer. He's a guitarist and a songwriter, that's why he's such a tight drummer. He is a master of the verse chorus verse, and his work with The D and QotSA is a testament to that. Singer/Songwriter.

All of these drummers are male?
Any female drummers good enough to be second best?

This guy (Joey Jordinson) is good too. A bit too gimmicky, but so fast...

even if you don't enjoy the music of DMB, Carter Beauford is well respected as one of the most talented drummers in the world. You all are really staying in one genre of music here in naming your drummers. "best" can be taken from many different viewpoints
