    Top 3 in no order:
    Bill Ward (Black Sabbath)
    Neil Peart
    Pete Sandoval (Morbid Angel)

    It's really hard to say after those 3 but some other good ones would be Dave Lombardo (Slayer), Dave Grohl (specifically for Nirvana), John Bonham, Danny Carey (Tool), Gene Hoglan (Death/Dark Angel,etc.), Cozy Powell (Rainbow/MSG/Sabbath, etc.)
    Tons more but I'm too lazy to go on.

    Depends on how you define "best drummer". Are we talking about technical skills? If that's the case Dave Lombardo rips over Ringo Starr. But does that make him a better drummer?
