Speaking of 2 drummers - Melvins since the merge with Big Business.

 

[Meliboeus]

Last four Death albums: Human with Sean Reinert ( plays for Cynic now ) on drums, Individual Though Patterns and Symbolic with Gene Hoglan and Richard Christy in TSOP.

Brann Dailor of Mastodon has a unique playing style,on their early albums he is fantastic...

All Opeth albums with Martin Lopez.

[electropop]

Haha! That Jojo Mayer must be the man behind the cliché-ish drum'n'bass loop featured on every track of that genre

Kool playing though hehe..

 

[IceClass]

Anyone remember Cozy Powell?

 

[jilgiljongiljing]

Ah damn I forgot Steve Gadd, Bill Ward, Vinnie, John Bonham and Kieth Moon.

 

[Csericks]

Charly Antolini - In The Groove
Art Blakey - The Freedom Rider

I agree, Brann Dailor is fantastic. Mastodon's latest album had some epic drumming.

Good call

Tool - Lateralus.

Here's Danny Carey laying down the drum track:

YouTube - TOOL--Danny Carey

 

[Sordel]

It's a non-album track I'm afraid, but if you want to hear some astonishing rock drumming please check out the following performance from Kris Myers. The entire track is brilliant, but if you're very impatient just flick to 5:13 for 40 seconds of superhuman drumming.

Umphrey's McGee - Wizard Burial Ground

 

[xBones]

I agree with SftD, Dave did a great job on that album.

Also any Dream Theater, or anything that Mike Portnoy is a part of: Liquid Tension Experiment, Neal Morse, Transatlantic.

Rush, Tool, August Burns Red, As I Lay Dying, All That Remains
