Francesco Paoli, of Fleshgod Apocalypse. Check out his hand technique. Outrageous.

Agree - I find Jarzombek incredibly unique in his style of phrasing.
In terms of technical proficiency and all-around facility, I think Matt Garstka is at the top. He brings Colaiuta drum-god/gospel chops to metal. He just graduated Berklee and is now playing with Animals as Leaders, who probably make the most technically difficult music around. Not for everyone.

Les Binks. I had a drumming crush on Unleashed in the East for a long time.

Could not believe when they came out with this record. It was brutal as hell.

On a deeper listen, their music really bears little resemblance to 'metal', but how many people does the 'player' market reach:

A vintage cut from the 80s thrash metal scene...Gar Samuelson was a monster! Great groove and feel-not surprising, considering that he was a fusion drummer who was heavily influenced by Billy Cobham and Lenny White:

Another, more famous heavy rock/fusion-influenced player who I think qualifies as "metal" in some respects:

Virg has done a few metal records. I don't care for most of them, but a few tracks are worth listening to:
