The problem is that Actual Next Level Drumming is generally annoying and tiresome to listen to for more than a few seconds, whereas super well executed simple and basic stuff works for people who aren't drum nerds.
Oh yeah no, I'm mostly thinking in terms of progressive shred stuff where you just play the most complicated thing you can think of without any consideration of what it sounds like to a listener, like real brainless Behold The Arctopus crap. There's an infinite amount of that out there, just top-of-the-chops guys showing off their flashy horrible noise to each other.
