Objectively, and subjectively, Carey is a far better drummer than Ringo, if your opinion is otherwise.. its just anti-carey-ism~ Listening to Ringo is like thinking about Carey when he was 5 and got his first drum set. Dude is the ****ing GOAT, and there are some guys that you can put in the conversation with him, but Ringo aint one. |

I didn't realize how old he is.
Wow! |
Sorry, but these threads and "arguments" are flat out dumb.
Yes, Danny Carey is a very, very good technical drummer that completely fits his band. Tool has an identifiable sound, which has been created mainly by Maynard and Danny Carey (the other guys are nice players and all but they're hardly standouts). That said, Danny Carey's drum style is very limited. He's not a Pocket player and he doesn't have a groove or backbeat. He's not the type of guy that's playing on session after session, nor are producers anywhere hiring studio drummers to "Play like Danny Carey". Ringo, on the other hand, is not only a phenomenal drummer but a phenomenal musician and songwriter. His pocket, backbeat and especially, his sound, is legendary. I can't tell you guys how many multi-platinum and Grammy-winning Producers that constantly look for guys that can "Play like Ringo". Ask any big time professional studio/session/touring drummer (including Danny) and they'll all tell you that Ringo is still a ****ing badass. Ringo played on about 200 Beatles songs, most of which, hit. You guys can argue chops all day long but at the end of the day, the guy that plays for the song, wins. And Ringo definitely won. |

Glad to see you around |
People aren't hiring guys to play like Carey because nobody can do the shit he does. They can try to copy specific licks, but they cant compose it in the way that only he does.
That's why hes the GOAT, and there are thousands of regular jack offs that can play like Ringo. |

Again, Danny fits Tool perfectly, just like Neil Pearl fit Rush perfectly. And while both of them are Masters of their own styles, they’re not masters of every style. Arguing about who is “better”, when both Rings and Danny have had massive success with their respective bands, is a silly waste of time. Neither band would be even remotely the same had any other drummer been a member. |

Seriously though, to say Ringo "wins" because he's recorded more songs is silly. And just because none of Danny's bands fit that style doesn't mean he couldn't carry a groove/backbeat if he wanted to. I've read somewhere he's an excellent jazz drummer, that's how he was originally trained but too lazy to look it up. I'd bet my house Danny could listen to any Beatles song once and perform an exact replica of Ringo's elementary beats. Hell, I can play damn near every Beatles song and I only have 4 years of percussion in high school. Ringo probably couldn't even count some of Danny's polyrhythms. |
