Now he has NIN under his belt

Fact is, the man is the greatest living drummer, and if you'd say otherwise, Ill ask you to give the catalouge of another drummer whos come up with such a diverse style with as much success.
Well his drumming isn't exactly the defining factor in any of those bands. Just drumming for a band doesn't mean you have any influence on the songs they write or the style they play. That he's been in lots of popular bands is more down to the fact he is well known and has lots of friends in bands. I'm not even sure how much influence he had on Nirvana (maybe someone else knows) but right now I'd say his most impressive achievement is his work with the Foo Fighters.
