Not to diminish the contributions of Tony Iommi, but often I'd listen to a badass Sabbath riff and realize it was Geezer's playing that made it.

Early They Might Be Giants drum programming.

They're not underrated really, but I always praise Unwound's rythm sect. Whenever I can; Sarah Lund has one of the simplest yet catchiest and most personal drumming styles ever, and the late Vern Rumsey was my fave.

(Add Trosper guitar flourishes and singing and you got an unbeatable trio)

All hail Unwound.

Bass and drums on the first Interpol album are fantastic imo. After that it seemed they lost interest in obsessively locked arrangements, but I love that 1st one.

Agree. Great band all around, too.
