Exhibit A: A craptacular rap song that sounds absolutely terrible.

Exhibit B: Travis Barker's amazing remix that makes it the best song ever.

He was part of Blink-182, he automatically fails everything.

edit: I actually listened to the song and you're right, it's much better. He's a pretty good drummer, too.

ps, I still hate him.

Dude, it was terrible to begin with and even worse to end. No, that wasn't amazing, and not even close to listenable. I know you are exaggerating on the "best song ever", but it is not even close to good. It was terrible.

Travis Barker is a good drummer, but NOT a god.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.
He made Crank That sound a lot better.

This isn't really any better, IMO.

Travis Barker is a good drummer, but NOT a god. Yeah, what did he have, 2-3 sticks in one hand and beat at the drum quickly in that song? Cool, I can do that too.

-Karmum-

It's all a matter of opinion. Of course it isn't the best song ever; I was using the expression, fool. :roll:

This fad of remixing these songs has done nothing for me. This one is no different. And for the person who said he had multiple sticks in each hand, no.

purple_MAN1832

Yeah I agree. Listen to most of the blink 182 songs, he basically played different variations of the same beat. That does'nt make him a god. Listen to Lars Ulrich (not from St. Anger), or Chad Smith, Cliff Martinez, Jackie Irons. Those are drum gods.

Wow, after watching those videos my respect for him went WAY up. Man he really knows how to improve songs!!!

Still, calling him a drum God is a little much. Stuff like this is Godly.

Anyone even remotely associated with anything involving blink-182 should die for their crimes. The amount of absolutely terrible music they are responsible for pioneering should bring down swift justice in the form of many many hard objects to the head and face.

And Philthy Phil from Motorhead. He had a 360 degree drum dome in which he was incased inside while he was playing. Does it really get anymore badass than that??

I prefer the original. It didn't need changing to be honest, and he didn't seem to add much.

Not the most technical drumming out there, but it's very emotional and beautiful.

I think a lot of people here let their hatred of Blink 182 cloud their judgement.

I'm not a Blink fan either, but Travis Barker is DAMN good.

I think they suck but at least I have a reason to actually watch them now when they come here w/ Dimmu/Behemoth.

Personally, Chris Pennie is one of my favorite technical drummers (next to Tomas Haake from Meshuggah)

My personal favorite drummer, ever, is Neil Peart. Because he just is.

(PS Travis Barker isn't very good)

I'm not a big fan of Kalessin either, but I thought Vyl is pretty good. The Dillinger Escape Plan is meh. But the Meshuggah one was good. The last one was awesome. And yeah, Travis isn't great, but the vid was decent.

Dillinger is more for time signature/weird beats. It's originally a techno song by Aphex Twin.
