Tomas Haake used programmed drums (with a soundbank constructed from his drum samples) on Meshuggah's Catch 33 because he didn't have enough time to constantly learn and record all the drum parts given their iterative write/chop/change/rewrite recording style and time constraints. And frankly, if drum programming is good enough for Tomas Haake, it's good enough for any drummer/musician who wants to use it, and certainly any listener.
