A lot of you will disagree with me on this but I think Dave Grohl has ultimately influenced a generation of drummers to think that the main goal is to be a powerhouse. This influence has somewhat eliminated the subtleties and restrain brilliant drummers usually have. You could point out things such as, "oh but... he was subtle and restrained in Unplugged!". Yeah, he had to be, but that's not the drummer he is really.
