rick pelletier on any six finger satellite record, especially 'severe exposure' and 'paranormalized'. i saw them live a couple of times (once in 1995 and once in 1996, if i recall correctly) and could not believe his precision.
stephen morris on every joy division record. and new order's 'movement'.
alan myers on 'q: are we not men? a: we are devo!"
robert gray on wire's 'pink flag', 'chairs missing', '154', and 'send'
any swans album with multiple drummers

Boys Life - Selt-Titled (and Departure and Landfalls)
Volta Do Mar - At The Speed of Light or Day
I could take the time to point out some really bad bands with really good drummers, but I wont. (ok one, A Static Lullaby)

I can't believe no one mentioned Krupa and Rich! Holy cow, you wanna see some drummers that can knock you flat on your ass, I highly suggest checking these guys out. Also, I really like Jimmy Chamberlain (Smashing Pumpkins, Zwan). I think his sensibility for making the drums fit with the melody (especially in Zwan) is superb. Finally, I really dig the drumming in the MC5-- they're the only old-school hard rock band I can stand to listen to, mostly because I don't like the jazz drumming applications in early rock music.

drums.com forum:

The best place on the net for reading the rants of angry drumming 13 year olds - "Peart would kill Lars in a knife fight", etc.
Hilarious.
I've only looked at the EA forums a little bit and I am quite happy there is a recording/music forum where at least some respect and intelligence is expected.
Well, I did say
some...
Lately I've been listening to music with no drums, I kinda dig it.

I'm a big Richard Thompson fan, and I love the drumming on "Mock Tudor." I don't know who did it. Pity.

Off the top of my head, these drummers/performances come to mind:
Colm O'Ciosiog's playing on My Bloody Valentine's Isn't Anything - loose, sexy, dirty drum sound and patterns.
David Wm. Simms's explosive performance/assualt on Two Nuns and a Packmule.
Steve Morris's tight, dynamic timing on Joy Division's Closer - and that crisp, reverbed sound Martin Hannett got - love it.
David Narcizo's schizoid tempo changes with The Throwing Muses, amazing on House Tornado.
Jim White with Dirty Three weaving his magic.
Karl Burns on The Fall's This Nation's Saving Grace - especially those crazy drums coming in fast on 'I am Damo Suzuki'.
And of course Mr Todd Trainer, he is the Skinmaster General.
