Let's List Acts That Got Better Once They Got A New Drummer

Seems otm mostly. Sure some people will be posting exceptions come the morrow

Yeah, I had another thread with that converse, bands that got worse when they got a new drummer.

I've just remembered Stuart Cable's dead. That cheered me up.

Got worse Jefferson airplane to Joey covington. Went from one of my favourite drummers to somebody I just find leaden.

Sonic youth

Which change are you thinking of? I'm a stan but I don't agree that the Shelley-era albums are better than Bad Moon Rising (Bob Bert) or Confusion Is Sex (Jim Sclavunos and Bert), although there are a lot more of them. I do think the band got better after Jim Sclavunos replaced Richard Edson (after the first EP), although I'm not even sure how much that has to do with the drums.

many would say oasis but i'm a tony mccarroll diehard, fuiud

Mayhem, easily. like, I love the Deathcrush EP with my whole heart, but the weakass drum patterns Manheim came up with for the titular song suck ass. they couldn't have done De Mysteriis with that dude.

once you hear versions of the song "Death Crush" that the piece of shit Hellhammer played on, it intensifies the song even more. though he's definitely fucked with his drum parts over the years for that one
