Why does everyone consider Travis barker to be so talented?

Speed isn't the only element that's involved in drumming, there's a certain technicality in Peart's playing that's excellent. Barker, on the other hand, is very average and whenever I hear someone say he's the best drummer I kind of just laugh and think about how ****ty their taste in music has to be.

Isn't there a blink-182 album that everyone considers to be proggy? I might have to listen to it just to see if he legitimately has some impressive moments, but I always figured it'd be a waste of time.
