i took the ringo starr per view... bomp!
Shouldve had Tre Cool
You know, if you put it in the description and add a timestamp..
Don't forget Marky played proto metal drums in DUST before Ramones
You actually forgot two really important pieces of that puzzle if I may add. The first one being Jordan Burns, former drummer of Strung Out and the second and most important one being Derrick Plourde, former drummer of Lagwagon who is probably the most insanely talented punk rock drummer of all time (RIP)
Nobody is more "Overqualified for the job" than Nyango Star
💯 in before “who?” Look it up. Especially the X JAPAN Kurenai in front of the band.
Word
Josh freese
He ain't overqualified, he just doesn't care enough to play parts that suit the song
@@finnvanderbar3935 it’s just apart of their gig 😂
This just shows that Punk drummers are there because they love the music, and not because that's the only thing they can play
Or because there was a popular band who needed a drummer and since they have a lot of money they can basically hire anyone they want so they get overqualified people to drum pop punk songs because they’ll pay them more than their other job
"Love" the music. Hahaha. Ok, bud.
I'm pretty sure there are a lot more punk drummers that are not overqualified than ones who are.
and they’re in successful bands making a shit ton of money - why leave a job you’re getting well paid for?
crap "music" crap "musicians" they are just clown s making noise. REAL Music rejects them .
Better title : underrated drummers because writers hold stereotypes about punk music.
I get what you are saying. However, I might not have clicked the link had they just used your title.
I saw the title and immediately thought, "Josh Freese better be in there."
💯
Yeah I'm with you, not crazy about the assumption that because they are in punk bands, the drummers aren't very good. That's the music they want to be playing and these guys are damn good.
Dave Lambardo from Slayer based his whole sound off of hardcore punk rock. His favorite music was punk
@@bobfallon2676 whoever has that assumption, has either never listened to old school punk, or is a moron! Lol
Travis Barker's incredibly creative drumming with such a simple kit never failed to impress me.
Look for the UA-cam channel of El Estipario Siberiano.... He does more with even less.
@@typhoon-7 thanks for the recommend bro….the dude is insane 🤯
@@vb2388 he is next-level talent. Like our generation's Buddy Rich.
@@typhoon-7 no he is not. buddy rich of our generation sits in a basement not knowing he's the buddy rich of our generation.
Just a question mate, don't you think he "overplays" in some songs?
One thing you’ll notice about most high level pop-punk bands (Yellowcard, Blink 182, Pierce the Veil, Green Day, Silverstein, Allister, etc) is that they have top tier rock drummers. Three things drive good punk…power chords, picked bass lines and high level drums. Without an aggressive, fast grooving rhythm section, punk falls flat on its ass.
As a bassist I'm going to go as far to say in all my years of playing in bands you can honestly consider drummers f'n athletes. Their entire body is a finely tuned machine otherwise it doesn't work. That's something to witness day in and day out in a practice setting. All the respect.
What bass should a beginner use? I want to be a bassist but know nothing about it
That’s such a great way of looking at it. I always said we danced with our instruments. But yeah, it’s very athletic in a sense. It’s athletic the way skateboarding is athletic - ripping around and constantly practicing and reenforcing the basics, then working out more difficult things over and over and over until you get it just the way you want it with your own style to it. I guess the glaring difference is that the most hurt we can get is to rip skin off our fingers. I don’t skate anymore, so broken bones are pretty out of the picture.
@@creamysauce7966 you can never go wrong with a classic Fender Presicion bass, or if you can't afford the Fender I think Squier makes lower priced but still quality models thru Fender company. I know they do with 6 string Stratocasters so I'm sure they'd offer basses too? Hope that helps!
@@blackphillip8486 Thank you so much!! I've been reading reviews of Squier Affinity PJ Bass, they also said it's the best for beginners. All I need rn is money lol. Thank you so much again! ♥♥
Fun fact for any Marching band fans: Travis Barker made the snare line for Blue Devils drum and bugle corps (the greatest corps in Drum Corps International, with 20 finals wins) but passed up to tour with his first band. If you want to find good drummers, I suggest watching DCI clips, their techniques and playing are amazing. My favorite sport of all time as well
What year was he going to march?
@@yeti4269 He passed up auditions in the early 90's. However when he tried to march what would've been his age out year in 96, he ultimately got cut and never did make the line
I knew Travis was a marching percussionist! You can really hear the influence of marching too. I’m not surprised that he marched DCI. He’s totally qualified
I read that when Blink fired their first drummer it was at a festival Travis was playing at with his other band. He learnt Blinks set list in 45 mins and joined them that day
"sport"
Fun fact, did you know that Joey Ramone was the original drummer for the Ramones. DeeDee was the original singer, but had problems playing and singing (wart hog is one of those songs). Joey then took vocals and was replaced with Tommy Ramone till Marky came around.
Freese is on a whole other level. As great as they are he's an alien. Known as the Human Metronome, he can play any style with grace and precision and has played for everyone. And still Sting's long time touring drummer.
Brooks Wackerman. That is all.
Both are kinda equal. Both are sorta equal. my fave drummers tho. Well there's a few others but ya know
Yes Freese is mind blowing amazing.. but I believe the human metronome award goes to Frank beard.
Putting Freese on this list just shows how completely mediocre most of the other guys on here are. Dave Raun? Bill Stevenson?
He's also a permanent touring member of DEVO and played with Oingo Boingo
I’ll say it as many times as necessary: DO NOT skip over Marky’s impeccable drum work with Dust!!
He's not worthy of not skipping.
Erik Sandin from NOFX is a beast behind the kit also. Anyone who can play The Decline live like that deserves all the gold stars.
I was looking for this comment. Smelly is amazing!
SMELLY!!!!!!
crap "music" crap "musicians" they are just clown s making noise. REAL Music rejects them .
@@margix1172 whats real music then
@@kuzrahfan2004 Melody and Harmony is the perfect definition of Music without these two elements is just random noise.
Listing Josh Freese as just with The Vandals and using footage like that does absolutely no justice to his name and talent at all. The dude is at a whole level above almost every drummer on this list, and is one of the most solid session drummers of our generation.
Listing anything more than his name is unnecessary, when you say it like that
Totally agree. Freese is the man. Even on perfect circle records. The very versatile. Astounding. Ramone seemed garbage there.
Also a travesty is that Brooks Wackerman didn't make the list. What the actual fuck.
@@IceBreakBottle Don;'t be an internet parrot by using popular online catchphrases like, "What in the actual F..." It is unoriginal and shows absolutely no intellect or self-respect. Don't be like everyone else. it is boring.
@@MichaelGrubbEvolvedMinistry Umm excuse me? How do you have enough time in your day to go around trolling like that. Do you have that much wrong with yourself that you thrive on going around judging people for what they say? By the way.. I've been saying "What the actual fuck" before the internet was even a thing ;) Move on little boy.
Marky sounds like he wants to play jazz here
Bill makes drumming look so easy, never seen a video where he's really breaking a sweat
Pretty sure he's on doctor's orders not to break a sweat!
Also proving that bears can drum!
He sweats like a mofo, haha. But he's amazing, one of my favorites.
Bill Stevenson is my all-time favorite drummer. Surprised they got footage of him playing and not smiling lol
As an Australian and massive fan of Frenzal Rhomb good to see Gordy get a mention
AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE!
helll yeah!
i'm not an aussie....actually from Brasil and used to play drums as well, and been a fan of Frenzal Rhomb since 1997! Big fan of Gordy!
they are so good!
cheers, mates!
=)
I listen to Blink 182 primarily to hear Travis's drumming. I think his style also has elements of metal in it.
And SKA, before Blink 182
Agreed.
He despise using double bass so I wouldn’t consider he has metal influence drumming
The first one that came to mind when I saw the title was Brooks Wackerman when he was in Bad Religion.
Honestly super stoked to see Dave Raun on this list. Lagwagon always had solid drummers, and Dave had big shoes to fill once Derrick left the band. Also, I should mention Dave was in RKL for a time, and if anyone knows about RKL. They practically invented the drum sound for every skate-punk band.
Don't forget Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. Dave Raun is an absolute beast
@@liammcguigan1783 Hear Hear!
Spot On!
I love Bill's style, even if he's playing a generic punk beat, he has that unique touch of his that's so iconic, still solid since the very early 80s
As an Australian Im happy Frenzal Rhomb and Gordy got a mention. Did not think they were well known outside AU but they should be
Basically Australia's answer to NOFX
they sounded awesome ngl, really deserve to be known more
D.H. Peligro doesn't get enough love
Also, I must say this...Josh Freese fucking KILLED it on A Perfect Circle's cover of "Let's Have a War"
I would also include in this list the Dead Kennedys drummer Darren Eric Henley aka D. H. Peligro who sadly passed this year RIP. Also, I would include Devo's drummer aka "The Human Metronome" Alan Myers who also sadly passed away from brain cancer in 2013. Both were "over qualified" to be punk rock band drummers but because of their high caliber performances created both were critical to creating their band's signature sound. Especially after Alan left Devo. For me, Devo's live performances were never the same after Alan left due to health issues and the riggers of touring.
I expected to watch Brooks Wackerman and Tre Cool on this list too.
Marky Ramone played in a 70s hard rock proto metal band called Dust
It's nice to see so many people want to hang out with musicians ; )
Reed Mullin - Corrosion of Conformity
Chuck Biscuits - DOA, Black Flag
and Danzig
@@Gregbaltzer his best work was in Danzig. But I don’t consider them a punk band, nor do I think he was overqualified for that band. John Christ was awesome and Danzig is one of my favorite singers of all time
Holy shit! Seeing Dave Raun play that legendary drum intro with such ease was gnarly and such a blessing to watch
What song
@@riaingalligan8461 Rifle By Lagwagon
He killed it. For me this is the greatest drum track from Lagwagon.
@@wilhelmfink7633 absolutely agree
Wow, surprised at the lack of Brooks Wackerman when he was in Bad Religion. That dude is a beast.
From this video I'd definitely stick with Josh Freese and Topper Headon. Both completely different and excellent in their own way.
Ya I expected brooks for Shure, he can literally play anything and where's smelly aka Erik sandin from nofx super underrated drummer
Yeah Brooks hands down best punk drummer in my history books
I thought the same. He has incredible skills and a no-brainer to include in this list.
I had a pancreatitus attack about the same time that you did Travis hope your health is better since you are going to be a dad again. Godspeed everyone, not just the oligarchs.
I'm glad they are still are drumming
Best example of of this Mackey from The Cro-Mags that guy had a hell of a style and is one of the best drummers in all of hardcore.
Chuck Biscuit from D.O.A., Circle Jerks, and Danzig is one of the best
There's something absolutely fucking magical about a drumcam at sub 30fps. Looks like actual wizardry in the best possible way!
Haha that live clip of the Vandals was them playing Ape Drape 😁
Punk and death metal have some of the best drummers ever
Fact! \m/
groove metal, metalcore and deathcore as well :)
Guys... THRASH!!
Marky's a solid drummer. It wasn't until I followed him on IG that I realized. His playing is so tight and precise.
He played with Dust, a hard rock band from the 70's. He was 15 years old and already a beast
They're all talent and spécial in their own style, full of energy and passion. Thank you the compilations!
Josh absolutely nails that fill, every note, so fast, a true master!
What about Tre Cool! One of my favorite punk drummers! And my 2nd favorite drummer of all time!
@ghost mall Not crazy technical, but the man is a beast on the drums.
Josh Freese is phenomenal, not many drummers as versatile as he is.
Dave Raun, Brooks Wackerman, Bobby Schayer, Josh Freese and Erik Sandin are few among my favorites.
A lot of punk drummers learn a lot of jazz beats.
Should've included Smelly from NoFX
And Byron of pennywise, and the dude from Belvedere and cigar (cant remember their names right now🤦♀️)
@@martinjohansson203 and the dude from Satanic Surfers, dude sings and plays at the same time
@@LuxuriousInterior aah, you're thinking of Rodrigo Alfaro. Dude's good as hell
No mention of George Hurley from the Minutemen.
Thankyou
Nice to see Dave Raun playing Rifle in this video - Derrick Plourde was a phenomenal drummer!
Smelly deserved a spot on this lol.
Came here expecting him
Rat scabies too
Travis Barker makes Blink 182 so more interesting.
He makes any song more interesting
Thank you for including Gordy from Frenzal Rhomb. My personal favourite on that list
Brooks Wackerman, with his tenure in Bad Religion proved why he's a damn deserving successor to the Rev
I saw him when he was in Bad Religion!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁
Stewart Copeland said many years ago that punk drummers/musicians on his scene back in the day despised good musicianship, but after a year of beating on their instruments, they could not help but get a lot better on them.
going on tour really does make you a much better musician whether you like it or not
I have heard that some Ramones songs actually have difficult hi-hat work. I'm not a drummer so I do not know how true that is, but I'd believe it. A funny thing about music is that sometimes easy-sounding songs are actually trickier than one might think, and sometimes difficult-sounding things are surprisingly easy.
It's not that difficult, it's just really, really fast. Marky played the hihats twice as fast as any other drummer probably would have played it. Sounds awesome!
@@CaptainAlbatross I'm affected is my favorite song with him on drums
So glad they included Josh Freese on this list
RIP Derrick Plourde. He came up with the beat Dave Raun played at 1:57.
Got to hang out with Bill Stevenson when I was in my late teens opening up for one of his side projects. Hell of a guy, nicest guy you'd ever meet. Late 90s
I really like Travis Barker's constant fills on songs like Lycanthrope. Really adds a flavor to the songs that sets him apart.
ws not expecting the ramones drummer on here, dudes got skills
He was in the rock band Dust before Ramones. They did 2 albums, Markey had to dumb down for Ramones
Respect for throwing some Aussie punk in there with Frenzal Rhomb. Massively understand band
The drumming of Ramones sounds like a Squarepusher song from the '97 album
Squarepusher. Damn, I haven't heard that in a long time. Same as Leftfield and Aphex Twin
@@LeeJoRo I guess it's time to listen again to that great stuff
@@art_vandelay1738 I listen to The Prodigy over the weekend (always outnumbered, never outgunned and the day is my enemy). Nothing like SP, LF and AT, but still great
@@LeeJoRo That's right, my friend
Dedication and joy, energy and love… these guys got the groove 🤘
I think Brandon Barnes should be on here too. His drumming looks effortless, especially on Rise Againsts early fast albums. Also Byron McMackin from Pennywise is an amazing drummer.
Lucky that I've seen 5 of the drummers in the video live through the years.
Put Bill Ward or Nicko McBrain behind the kit for the Ramones and I'm sure they would play everything with open hi hat and quarter notes from the 5th song till the end.
Brooks Wackerman should be an honourable mention
Chuck Biscuits of D.O.A., Samhain/Danzig, Social D also comes to mind- total BEAST on the kit
A great video to come to to humble yourself really quickly 😀
Travis makes a Blink 182. If they didn’t have one of the world’s best drummers none of us would have heard of them
there's a lot of punk fans that would say that they STOPPED listening to Blink 182 starting with the Enema of the State album. Dude Ranch was a really good album, and that was before Tom & Mark could afford to pull Travis Barker from The Aquabats
Nothing overqualified here. Punk drummers are just great drummers.
Listen to Felix griffin from DRI on the Dealing with it album. He was using double bass on hardcore punk before anyone else. That album even inspired dave lombardo of slayer
Now that Lombardo is playing with the Misfits, he should qualify as a punk drummer. He should have been in this video too. hahahaha
@@mikeyuberalles he also plays with suicidal tendencies and Mr bungle
Sweet, I was fortunate enough to see three of these shows. Musink (I don't remember if the Vabdals and Lagwagon was the same year, and PRB!
I think the only time I practiced punk drumming was on stage. I used go add a lot of different elements like reggae and Jazz to a punk band I was in.
Holy shit, everyone knows about Barker, but I never realised Marky Ramone is that good.
not really punk but Fall Out Boy's drummer played with Behemoth during some sort of get together. i can't remember what exactly but goddamn he's good. i was a metal guitarist in a punk band and watching drummers at shows was amazing. they are SO fast and always entertaining
Check out the album “all hail the void” by the band Enabler, I’m not sure if he was in that recording, but he drummed for them when that album was out. He’s insane
His name is Andy Hurley :)
Also add Derrick Plourde formerly of Lagwagon, The Ataris and Bad Astronaut, Jordan Burns formerly of Strung Out, Jord Samolesky of Propagandhi, Steve Jocz formerly of Sum 41 and Erik Sandin from NOFX.
You missed Jordan Burns From Strung Out. Hardest working drummer I've ever seen on stage and off.
The quote "rock and roll by people who didn't have very many skills as musicians but still felt the need to express themselves through music" maybe true for everyone else on the stage, but definitively not for the drummers. That needs way more skill than most rock songs.
No Derek Grant? (Alkaline Trio)
The Suicide Machines, my friend
DAVE RAUN IS PURE TALENT THAT GUY IS THE FORCE IN LAGWAGON AMAZING DRUMMER, Sorry for screaming
Lagwagon drummer Derrick plourde and RKL’s bomer are amazing in my opinion.
I'm a simple blink 182 fan. I see Travis, I press like
It doesn’t look our sound like these drummer are over qualified Punk drummers it looks and sounds like they are in the right profession as punk drummers period.
Exactly my thoughts!
Nothing too special, they keep the tempo and they do it as a drummer should.
Not like that one guy from that one band.... :D
The video ended before you showed Jordan Burns.
Bill back in the day was a monster behind the kit if you look back at it he doesn’t stop at all
Awesome man
I've always been more of a heavier rock drummer myself...big fan of Lars Ulrich style and what he has done over the course of career but damn 😳I have always had respect for Travis barkers chops on the skins.......the man is an animal 💯🎯
Gordy is such a fucking beast.. Frenzal Rhomb are such a badass band in general
I don't think Dave rain and derrick plourde get enough respect in punk they deserve way more derrick was and will always be a kickass drummer same with Dave rip derrick
Mackie jason is one of my favourites and earl hudson of the bad brains
When asked who his favorite drummer was, jazz legend Tony Williams said, "Tommy (Ramone) Erydeli. I would love to play that fast."
Two come to mind, Dave Lombardo in the Misfits and the drummer from Cigar..watch the live Bridge city Session video of Classic you...crazy
Punk has some of the best drummers in the world.
Death metal have better stuff
"Punk has some of the drummers in the world" is more accurate.
@@H1A7US a lot of it is very similar if we're strictly talking drums. Though I'd agrue the punk drummers don't get enough respect
@@H1A7US No it doesn't. Brooks Wackerman's drumming with Bad Religion blows any of that tuneless growling shit out of the water.
@@NothingToDismay Flo Mounier and Hans Grossman beg to differ
Punk rock drummers literally doing their job. But mad respect for including Frenzal rohm
I'd also honorable mention Brooks wackerman (not sure if I spelled that right) and the drummer from strung out
Gordy is such a fuckin animal i'm glad he's being recognized for the talent he has
No mention of Terry Chimes from the clash?
He was so good that tony iommi hired him too take the place of bev bevan (of ELO fame) who got shitcanned from black sabbath one show into the Eternal Idol Tour in 1987.
The audio isn't that great but I highly recommend you check out his performances with them from Milan Italy and Essen Germany on that tour.
Tara Reid from Josie and the Pussycats is often forgotten. It takes skills to convince us that she’s not a drummer nor an actress at the very same time.
Armand SOIA, Earl Hudson, Mackie, Bomer RKL and Erik Sandin... 🔥🥁
I don't care what the rest of the band is playing, a great drummer is always a great drummer.
36 seconds in, Travis barkers first beat, where is that from?
I had NO IDEA Marky Ramone was a jazz drummer. Wow.
I love that this included Dave Raun but you missed Smelly from NoFX. It should read “great punk requires good drumming, here are some examples.”
I was waiting for Byron McMackin. That dude truly rips.
As famous as Travis Barker is I feel he has been underrated by many. His work with Blink is fun and fast but unfortunately that seems to define his career.
Man, just look up all the bands John Freese is in. He's so incredible.
