Who imo, suck the most. Haha
Reputation: 177Here's another nice clip. Just a jam session but I liked it.
Real stuff starts at around 2:30. I can't stand that beatboxer.
Reputation: 16Don't see a reason to attack people but.....
The 3 vids you posted besides a few parts all sound like similar material that Joey plays.
The 2nd vid....I guess its cool if you can play the same stuff over and over....with speed
The 3rd vid...besides the jungle sounding stuff, sounds like Joey.
Your not trying hard enough Norrin.
Reputation: 16Errmm..where do you fit into this conversation? No where, that's what i thought.
A) Could any of those drummers play at the speed of Joey?
B ) So if Joey was twice as old as he is now he could do a 8 minute demonstration of almost every drum style ever?
C)If you play something enough long enough your body becomes adjusted to it, so not breaking a sweat means nothing.
D) You cant compare "People" to anyone like that....
1. "You're".
2. You're wrong.
Every single one of those drummers has technical ability far beyond the wildest dreams of Joey Jordison. If you knew anything of drumming, drummers, drum history or anything else, you'd recognise this. It's one of those things that you'll just never understand unless you have the knowledge.
You can't explain to someone why you think Slayer is good if all they're gonna say is: "It's just noise.". Same with you and drumming. If all you know is what you hear on a base level, you'll never know.
Joey is a very good drummer, but essentially what he does is speed. He plays easy stuff at impressive speeds.
That last video is an 8 minute demonstration of almost every drum style ever, performed by a man at least twice Joey's age, maybe even more, without even breaking a sweat.
He's nowhere close to the sheer technique of Buddy Rich, Neil Peart or Terry Bozzio.
Terry Bozzio is regarded by drummers as the best technical drummer alive. He has entire limb independence and he is pretty much the only drummer alive to ever master The Black Page.
Joey Jordison is just a good metal drummer. He's not even the best metal drummer, and metal drummers aren't the best drummers. Purely metal drummers I mean. You have to remember, it's not about what you can play; it's what you can create.
Even if Joey COULD play everything in those videos, he never could have created it. People play Hendrix, could they have wrote Voodoo Chile? No.
Well yeah, Jazz is based on improvisation, where as to metal you're writing down your music more and making it more structured, so no argument there.
