      @@marcoolvera6102 really not. Bonham never went for the display of skills that Bill Ward did. Bill had lot more fills in the songs than Bonham for sure but in the words of Bill himself, Bonham was already a powerful drummer since age 13 as they played together. He especially complimented his footwork saying that his bass drum gave him a kick in his guts or something.. And in live performances as well, Bonham was a powerhouse and had better tempo. Bill had a bit more jazz but Bonham was more of a Blues player. But in the end, they both favoured the great bands they were playing with.

      +Aamer Tahseen Being a drummer I can tell you drumming is not all about technicality anf complication. If you're in a band you need to play the drums in a way that complements rest of the instruments the best it can. If you want to play complicated stuff you need guitarists who can play that stuff with you. Dave never played technical beats but the way his drumming went with the guitar is just amazing. The drum beat in smells like teen spirit is the best example. Its pretty simple but the groove of that drumming is unparalleled. Now if you like it or hate it.. thats the reason that this beat is one of the most famous drumbeats in the world.

I am a power/speed/thrash metalhead & not really big on death metal so much, but I have to say Pete's performance that evening was absolutely SICK! Fastest drumming I've ever witnessed - viewing from overhead of the main stage the man was a blur that appeared to have 4 arms instead of 2! Saw firsthand why he is known as the godfather of the blast beat. Phenomenal drummer!
