Mike has always been one of my favorite drummers, and Disturbed is one of my favorite bands. Since I also play, I can say that I understand what Mike is doing, and believe me, his chops are better than people think. What impresses me the most is his ability to play odd things with his hands while keeping that steady beat with his double bass drums. That's not easy to do (example: "Another Way To Die"). Listen to it. You'll understand. Go Mike!

I wish people rather then being so judgemental about how basic some of it is, would look at the bigger picture! It's crowd pleasing and that's all that matters :) mikes done so many different drum solos and this was from the believe album tour. So around 10 years ago! So all those who are calling it "shit" need to open your eyes a bit , and realise it's about playing to the crowd not playing to the critics

This is a true musician. Sure it's not complex, because it doesn't NEED to be. Sometimes the SIMPLEST music is the BEST. AC/DC's drumming is VERY similar throughout their songs, but they are an INCREDIBLY successful and LOVED band. It doesn't matter if you can drum faster, drum louder, or whatever than Mike, it's the fact that he LOVES what he does, and people LOVE him. By the by, 'Blasting' is impressive, yes, but it's too much going on at once to handle. SLOW DOWN GUYS!

The reason why disturbed is so fucking good is because they actually put heart into their guitar and drum solos, its not just random shreading that makes no sense, each solo is specific to each song and only fits in that song. Dan Donegan (guitarist for disturbed) has said that every solo he writes means something to the song its in.... thats what makes disturbed great

A definate joy to listen to the little nuances he Applies within his riffs and the nice use of space, Unlike death metal. you can find a solid beat within all that syncopation. Peart is still the closest to buddy rich but wengren would be the new generations Peart.

what makes mike one of the better drummers out is there is a couple of things..........1. hes fucking the most solid drummer ive ever seen. He is the essence of what a drumer is supposed to be which is be the backbone of the band.2. He knows when to slow down and let dan take the lead but he also takes the lead at the right times and make it sound perfect. Plus everything he writes fits perfectly. 3. He fucking rapes the drums! This solo is amazing and very organized not just flailing his arms

This is very good. I mean it's simple but it sounds really good. I hate that some drummers think fast means you're better. Like "Well I can double stroke role fast." Who cares? If you now how to double stroke then anyone can reach the fastest speed. TO ALL THE DRUMMER OUT THERE FAST DOESN'T MAKE YOU THE BEST. What he did here is a perfect example of a good drummer.

its not about being the best, its about loving the music you play, a drummer has to not only play his music and lead the band, he has to, as cheesy as this sounds, he has to BE the music, comparing every drummer to Neil Pert is unfair in a sence, every drummer has his own style, drumming is like speaking, some people have a different accent, pronounce differently, or even a completely different language, i drum and i try not to judge and say whos the best because ive been inspired by so many.
