Blabbermouth
I like Rick Allen, but the best rock drummer IN THE WORLD? Not IMO.
But it is 2020 so....

LOL no doubt!
I do think they were limiting it to drummers still among the living. Otherwise, Moon, Bonham and Peart would (should) be on the list.

The world is all about symbolism, nothing of substance is left anymore.

No Danny Carey, List is shite

That entire list is retarded. Dave Grohl is the only top 10 drummer on there and they have him 9th.
I'm not sure who the greatest drummer in the world is right now. But it's a safe bet that they have two arms.

Wait..
No way.
No Gavin Harrison? No Carey? Where is Mastodon's drummer? Dream Theater?
This list is garbage.
Reminds me of the best "band joke" I've ever heard:
What has 9 arms and sucks?
Def Leppard
All joking aside, I do like Def Leppard, but still.

Lifelong Def Leppard fan here. In fact, Rick is the reason I picked up the drumsticks when I was 15. I learned to play drums listening to "Pyromania", "High N Dry" and "Hysteria". I never would've been a drummer if he hadn't suffered his tragic accident.
Disclaimer: I'm well-versed in Mutt's use of the Fairlight on "Pyromania" and the programming of the studio tracks on "Hysteria".
Having said that, I don't think Rick's work on the last few Lep albums is anywhere near deserving of this award. Damn, that hurt to say...
Edited b/c double negative.

Stewart Copeland is much better than Allen. Hell I'd take Fred Leblanc over Allen!

Travis Barker is legit.
My #1 is Carter Beauford

D Carey, Tool drummer. Hands down #1

He's actually the only one on their list that I would even consider in the discussion for top 10. Grohl is a really good drummer, but popularity just doesn't matter to me. Disregarding the dearly departed, you still have a long list of beasts:
Gavin Harrison
Tomas Haake
Stewart Copeland
Gene Hoglan
Thomas Pridgen
Marco Minnemann
Danny Carey
Zach Hill
Damon Che
John Stanier
Jimmy Chamberlin
Joe Tomino
I'm going to realize in 5 minutes that I left out an obvious choice, but whatever. I honestly think Rick Allen winning was a coordinated troll.

That's a shite list in Blabbermouth!!! What about:
Mike Portnoy
Mike Mangini
Tony Royster Jr.
Danny Carey
Jay Weinsberg
Travis Barker......LOLOLOL! Give me a break. I respect him as a musician, but he's not that great to be mentioned in my list!
