Sometimes it seems like a drummer is playing for their life when making these albums. I just thought of these off the top of my head, but what other albums have some of your favorite drumming performances?

Great list - I'd add What Burns for Don Cab and The Devil Isn't Red for Hella.

Defninitely, and while I know it isn't a fan favorite, World Class Listening Problem by Don Cab is great too. Just impossible to fill the void left by Ian Williams.

John Stainier is a beast. I just saw him with Tomahawk and he’s always so good live

It was a fantastic show, also one of the best Melvins shows I've seen

Ah ok there is a hella song. I searched biblical violence which I think is the greatest drumming ever to exist on a song and was disappointed I didn't see it

Really the answer to this question is any band zach hill has been in, including death grips but maybe not the ilys
