Most definitely. Him and Hellhammer; two best black metal drummers.
Also, and I don't mean to sound like an *******, but Joey Jordison is pretty mediocre compared to other drummers. He's no different than every metalcore drummer out there, aside form the fact he plays in a 9-piece nu-metal homo project called Slipknot. And his double bass skill/technique/whatever you wanna call it, which is the first thing I've ever heard anyone say about him (He's so fast on teh double bass LAWLZ!!), is nothing special. I've heard Hellhammer doing practically machine gun rolls when I saw Dimmu a couple weeks ago. He's a decent drummer, but I wouldn't put him up on such a high pedestal. But that's just me.
I will say he's good for inspiring young drummers to play metal (even though he's in a nu-metal band). I know he inspired me to play drums when I was young. He's a gateway musician to bigger and better drumming.
