BEST IN DRUMS 2020: It's no exaggeration to say that the drummers of the prog world represent a disproportionate slice of the most forward-thinking, talented players.

Masters of the instrument, the best of them construct multi-faceted, dynamic beats that form the basis for musical exploration, while still holding it down and playing with feel.

Whether on stage, or on record, these drummers have produced prog gold this year. Who gets your vote?
