R&P: What are your favorite drum solos?

Hmmm... I can't really think of one from the top of my head besides painkiller by judas priest.

BQ: grim reaper.

BQ2: I have a lot but my favorite would have to be a tie between hurricane fluttershy and hearth's warming eve

BQ3: black metal. I like black metal more because I love the atmosphere and the low production of it. I also have a soft spot for tremolo picking and black metal vocals are cooler than death growls IMO. And the lyrics. Black metal tends to have more occult themes in it than death metal. I'm into the occult, i'm not a satanist or anythin, but stuff like that interests me so much that I have purchased some books about it and a statue of baphomet off of the internet. =p

As Blood Runs Black - My Fears Have Become Phobias

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ppHDz9P1LM&feature... (it's towards the end, although i'm not sure if it counts as a "solo" or not)

BQ: Cannibal Corpse, Gorillaz, Poppy Seed Grinder, Dir en grey, AKB48, Led Zeppelin, AC/DC, Vivaldi. ...things get lost too easily on my 80GB iPod Classic.

BQ2: Green Isn't Your Color.

BQ3: Death Metal. Black Metal just takes the Satanic lyrics to a whole new level, and many bands try too hard. I mean, i listen to a little bit of it, but not too much. Plus, Death Metal always has Nile :3

Dance To The Drummers Beat Herman Kelly and Life

Buddy Rich - his precision and speed is unrivalled imo

as for metal, even if its not a solo, I love this clip of Proscriptor....especially the last few minutes

BA: Hypocrisy was one of those bands...heard them long ago, wasn't too impressed, and now love them after hearing them again after 5 or 6 years

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGHIsalgYRA

BA3: Black metal although i enjoy both. Love the atmosphere and diversity that is in the black metal genre

Rush - YYZ (Exit Stage Left)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmyiOoUAp98

starts at about 2:20

BQ: I tried listening to Pink Floyd before but found them boring, then i recently gave "The Dark Side of the Moon" a listen and their... okay...

BQ2: no thank you

BQ3: Death metal

I like Pete Sandoval's drum mic test from Morbid Angel. Even though I no longer care for death metal Pete used to be a big influence and is well respected by Mr. Grimm.

BQ - Metallica when they came back with Death Magnetic.

BQ 2 & 3 - Ey yo lets go get some bbq and git busy!

The intro to Ain't that a shame by cheap trick. Not exactly metal, but still a great solo.

The one in Stranger In Your Soul by Transatlantic.

Near the beginning.

BQ: Porcupine Tree

BQ2: I'm afraid I have no idea what you're on about

BQ3: To me, they're both the same. And yes, I used to listen to them both.

I definitely went the easy way out with your question hope you enjoy anyway :)
