Whoa. Just saw this. I love Travis' work and all, but he's a rank amateur comparedto Danny Carrey. There are very few drummers in today's scene that can compete with Carrey. Not Travis, not Dolmayan from System and certainly not Will Champion from Coldplay. Not even the double-bass masters like Portnoy, Bittner or Chris Adler from Lamb of God.

Carrey's musicality, precision, creativity and pure skill outrank them all.

System Of A Down will never write a piece of music as brilliant as "Trouble", and that's that.

True, and true, but you must admit the transcendence of "Trouble".

Yeah, me too, but it'd be a real stretch to call anything SOAD did "transcendent"...lol.
