What I like about Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan is he has great technique and speed but not just bash away with running 32nd notes and double stroke snare riffs for the whole song but use it at the right time.
So, finally his fills just fit so nicely into the songs.
Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan have a cool signature which is a technique that can be Hear on tracks Such as "Almost Easy", "Critical Acclaim", and "Crossroads"
In this songs the rev doubles up at a fast tempo between the double bass and ride cymbals.

About Dave Lombardo
I would listen to the radio often I would tune into a show called The King Biscuit Flower Hour, and hear pre-recorded broadcast's of live show's. I'd go to the local record store and buy 45's (records containing one song on each side.) of songs that I would hear on the radio and play along to them. I feel this was a learning period for me. I asked my parents to let me take drum lesson's. That lasted a week, I got extremely bored with LRLLRLRR.I went back to listening and playing along to records. From 10 to 12 years old all I liked was Rock music, but Something strange was happening to me and it wasn't just puberty.....Read More at Drummer World

About Chris Adler
Chris Adler, drummer for metal megastars Lamb of God, has a voice and approach all his own, yet he didn't even begin to play drums seriously until he was already in his twenties. He did, however, grow up studying piano, saxophone, and acoustic guitar before finally settling on playing bass for several high school bands and other projects.While attending Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Virginia, Adler continued to play bass, record, and tour. He eventually got his first drumkit-a dilapidated monstrosity with a faulty footboard and uneven legs-but he didn't find his calling until 1994, when he reunited with some members of his freshman dorm to start a band. The bass spot was already taken, so Adler turned to drums full-time.
The band, known at the time as Burn the Priest, recorded two 7" singles and one full-length CD and toured incessantly over their five-plus-year career. They became one of the most downloaded metal bands ever and soon caught the attention of record labels. A switch in guitarists, a record deal, and name change later, Lamb of God was officially born and ready to explode....Read More at ModernDrummer

About Shannon Lucas
Premeditated Metal

Shannon Lucas sits slump-shouldered behind the cluttered counter at one of the thousands of identical Guitar Center stores peppered throughout America. The fluorescent lighting is nauseating. The greasy-faced kid testing out 129 different crash cymbals is more nauseating. But neither is as nauseating as the empty space burning in Lucas' chest. The space that used to hold hope, glory, and metal.
Then, in the far distance, beyond the rack of overpriced percussion accessories, beyond the dusty stack of overlooked method books, in walk four misfit scoundrels known as the death metal group, The Black Dahlia Murder. They knew Lucas from the metal circuit and knew just where to find him. It was a drummer they sought, and a drummer they found.
"I was kind of musically homeless for a while," recalls Lucas. "I left All That Remains, because it just wasn't a good fit

Jordan Mancino Interview
Way Too Loud: Getting jet lag?
Jordan Mancino: Yeah, I haven't been able to catch up. I've been trying to hard, but it's just not working! I think I'll wait until I get home, and then try to get on a normal schedule, because it's not really working right now!
WTL: Well, since the first new thing I'm noticing is the handle bar mustache, you've got to explain that. It's huge! You look like a Hell's Angel!
Jordan: (Laughs) I was growing a beard in December, and then we had a photo shoot for DW ( the drum company), and I didn't want a beard for that, so I shaved it into a moustache just for fun, and it just kind of grew on me for a couple of days. They were digging it, so I was like "Sweet!" Then they said they wanted me to do a commercial too! It's been cool because it's getting me work!
WTL: The video for "Nothing Left" debuted recently. What's it like shooting a video, especially from the position of the drummer? And does Tim scream or lip-sync?
Jordan: Sometimes he screams, sometimes he doesn't. We've got to run through the song so many times that he'll blow out his voice if he screams the whole time. Usually you just play along with the track, nothing is miked, and no sound is coming out. As far as I'm concerned, I could not shoot another video, ever! If I could do that, I'd be happy! I just don't like shooting videos, I like the end result product, because it looks really cool. I have to play the song so many times, and I get so exhausted after the 15th run-through. Being the drummer, I'm always in the background, even if they're doing a close-up of the guitar player or the singer, I'm always in the background while everyone else gets to take a break, because even if no one else is in the shot, I'm always in the background. Those are my cranky days. I'm usually in pretty good spirits most days. I might not like it, but I'm not going to complain about it too much!....Read more at WayTooLoud
