Nope.
I've been a drummer for almost 30 years, so I was pretty excited to see this thread. A lot of good videos already! I may be adding some soon, but subbed in for sure 
BTW...some of my personal favorites have already been named, Neil Peart, Mike Portley, and the drummer from Tool (I forget his name). There is a pretty good drum solo that Shannon Larkin of Godsmack did while on their faceless tour. I don't think he is among the best out there, but he has a lot of talent and they happen to be one of my favorite groups. I may have to throw that video up if someone doesn't beat me to it.

wth all my good bros of EF are turning out to be drummers
one day we'll get a bodybulding drummer competition going where judges decide who looks swole as fk while doing the fastest diddles....
nan you are disqualified, dont bother. not that kind of diddle anyways...
Here's what I mean by technical rudimental drumming within the context of music.
Specifically 0:35 to 0:50 and 1:34 to 1:50 and the repeats of that throughout the song.
Playing that correctly (with appropriate accented strokes), keeping time and transitioning in and out of it is hard. Also, it's tasteful and brings chemistry to the music. As opposed to metalcore drumming that incorporates almost exclusively single strokes cuppled with speed.
This is one of the reasons Peart is considered such a legend in Rock drumming. Because he's always implementing hard to play rudimental patterns within music that not only is difficult, but is attractive to the listener's ear.

Exactly. A lot of rudimentally difficult stuff sounds very impressive to another percussionist, but to someone who doesn't know the difference it sounds like someone is just making a shitload of noise.
Finding that happy medium is difficult, but when you do even the untrained ear knows that shit is hard. Some extremely talented people never get credit for being so talented because they typically hide behind what sounds good to the masses and what makes money (same thing)

And in the same sense, some no talent fucks like barker put up a video of him doing some cheesy 16th note rolls with a shitty rap song backtrack and the world thinks he's fkng gold. Now every time someone hears I'm a drummer, I always get asked if I have seen him play or if I think he's good.
Fuck no. Buddy rich would destroy him left handed..
