Both very respected prog drummers. Who is your favorite?

Well, neither is my favorite GeekTongue but of these 2 I prefer Carey.

Portnoy is good, but I'll just say it.....I don't get it.
I assume he is hyped up because of the hyped up band he played forLOL but while he is good that's just it.
He's good, never blew me away, never was I like holy shit! Just a good drummer IMO.

Megadeth, Metallica, Slayer and Testament. The real Big Four of thrash metal!

I'm only familiar with Carey within the context of Tool and on an Adrian Belew album he plays on.  Despite a greater exposure to Portnoy's drumming, I prefer Carey's playing.  Never really thought about which is technically better than the other.
