Rovim Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Steven cause Appetite. Brain is tempting though. But for Gn'R, Stevie, not a question for me. Sorum did some good work as well. Deserves a mention, even if he did not have the right feel for Guns imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeGueiros Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 In terms of drum technique i'd probably go with Brain, some great work on CD. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovim Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) In terms of drum technique i'd probably go with Brain, some great work on CD.For sure. Drums on Catcher, Twat, Sorry are highlights, but almost every song contains some fine drumming. Gotta hand it to Josh for coming up with those drum parts. (Frank did some cool shit as well) Edited September 8, 2015 by Rovim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtle Signs Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Adler. I know this is subjective but every time this comes up people will mention the drummers who can outplay Steven and that's all well and good if we are discussing Rush but this is GnR. In the case of an upcoming reunion I'd love to see Steven talking his rightful place behind the kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasted Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Brain is the best drummer. I'll go with Brain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warebel Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Sorum and Adler just for AFD. Brain and Frank do not fit at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeGueiros Posted September 8, 2015 Author Share Posted September 8, 2015 Even though Brain and Frank get a lot of hate for not 'making sense', I think both, especially Brain are really important in shaping the new gnr, it can be seen from his interviews how he took the gnr gig as an opportunity to innovate and be creative with his drumming, also brought a lot to the table such as helping in writing Shacklers and The General Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brain just played what Josh came up with note for note on Chinese with Frank's additions. Edited September 8, 2015 by Rovim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terzyo Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Matt Sorum, he beats the drums very hard, i like it!But in GNR, i think Steven Adler is the best, i love Appetite drums sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

batman007 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Brain is my favorite! He plays with so much passion. And beats the crap out of the set. Love his drumming in CD. It was very cool to see him live! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len Cnut Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Perhaps thats been a key musical problem with GnR...actually now i think about it thats probably it. Sorum, God love him, did a wonderful job but he's not the man I'd pick for my band. Adler was sloppy but he had a certain sense of rhythm, Brain never really got a chance to work for a living and I'm not really aware of much about Frank Ferrer. The old adage you're only as good as your drummer rings true i suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caught_in_a_Coma Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Sorum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom2112 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Steven was not the most reliable, but he could sound great. For attitude and enthusiasm you have to give it to Steven. For playing spot on, while adding in some fiery new fills Frank is next in line, I didn't really enjoy Brain and while Matt is a great technician his playing just doesn't do it for me when he's with GnR. Overall Steven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colossus of Rhodes Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Adler, no question. And how his playing style (and the sound) fits with Duff and Izzy, it's amazing.Out of replacements, the second one, I see from this thread his (nick)name is Brain.

Chewbacca Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Brain as the standalone artist. Dude is sick.Best fit for Gn'R? I have no preference really. Pretty much all the guys that played with the band live did a decent-to-good job actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Dude Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 All are have their own unique skill set, but I gotta say my favorite was Rob Gardner. I never understood why people largely ignore his tenure in GNR. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNRmello77 Posted September 8, 2015 Share Posted September 8, 2015 Steven Adler for sure, the sound and feel he has, one can only love, all those appetite songs dude... And i really like all drummers they had but steven is Just it, and his passion and enthusiasm, love and happy attitude and his looks hè is the man, he is not the best drummer in the world at all but hè is my favorite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
