[stip]

As we approach the end of round I, and have re-familiarized ourselves with a lot of old friends, it's time we have a very serious conversation.

Who was the best drummer of the best of grunge drummers?

[stip]

For my money it was easily Jimmy Chamberlin. In fact, the Pumpkins are one of the only bands where I regularly make a point to stop and listen to the drumming

[run2death]

Jimmy and it's not close.

[epilogue]

I don't care. Any of them. Whatever.

[VinylGuy]

Jimmy or Matt C.

Kretz and Kinney should get shout outs.

[stip]

I don't care. Any of them. Whatever.

This is important, Joey. Don't turn away from it.

[BurtReynolds]

Chamberlin
Irons

the rest

[stip]

Chamberlin
Grohl
Dave A
Matt C


after that I couldn't tell you

[epilogue]

I don't care. Any of them. Whatever.

This is important, Joey. Don't turn away from it.

Just tell me who to vote for.

[LoathedVermin72]

Chamberlin
Irons
Abbruzzese
Grohl
Cameron

I liked Matt's drumming when he was with Soundgarden.

[chewm]

Yeah it's definitely Chamberlin.

Hey Stip, are we doing this for all the band members: best guitarist, bassist, vocalist, etc?

[Jorge]

Guitarist: Billy Corgan

Bassist: uhhh I dunno. Probably Jeff?

Singer: I've always really liked Kurt's voice and singing, even though I've fallen out of love with the songs themselves

[Jorge]

And yeah, drummer is clearly Chamberlin.

[PHATJ]

Voted for Chamberlain. There are a lot of really good drummers on that list.

of course! but lets live in this moment for a moment

[LetMeSleep]

I prefer Dave A's feel to any of these guys however Matt Cameron blew my mind back in the 90s. He was like a Bonham-esque player to me, larger than any band could handle.

I have no arguments with Chamberlin but he didn't amaze me like Dave A and Cameron.
