I can understand the preference on both sides of that fence, because naturally, different people have different likes when it comes to the elements of music.
There's nothing inherently wrong with complicated drumming IF it's used in the right context.

Some songs sound good with an offbeat pattern and complicated fills, but some songs do not.
I prefer drummers who know when the song calls for a certain type of drumming, regardless of their own need to "rock out".
