Totally agreed on this point. I personally like Neil Peart, but I think it's pretty telling that he's considered the greatest rock drummer ever by so many.

Still getting in some more listens before my review, but I want to say that the drums sounds like Guigou Chenevier's (Etron Fou Leloublan) or Drumbo's locked in and travelling grooves combined with Maury Baker's drumming flair on Starsailor, all filtered through a post hardcore lens. The guitars are rad too.
