Danny Carey is another one of my favorite drummers. He plays in the band Tool and is known for his technical yet fluid drum groves and the frequent use of irregular patterns and time signatures. Below is a video of Danny Carey playing the last two minutes of the Tool song Lateralus. In the video, Carey plays one of his custom drum sets which was built by well known drum maker Jeff Ocheltree. The drum shells are cast bronze and are manufactured from recycled Paiste cymbals. Carey only uses this drum set when touring in the United States as the kit is quite heavy with the bass drums alone weighing over 100 pounds each.
