Title says it all.

I am sick of rattling out boring, 4/4, simple beat songs with barely any fills when I play live. I am looking for a good song with epic drums.

Im sure you guys can help me.
 
"Math Rock" might suit you well, although most bands who are placed in that category are pretty against being in it ha.

Giraffes?Giraffes! (my personal favorite)
Don Caballero
Hella (kind of the "standard". Zach Hill is absolutely ridiculous. Kind of a constant series of 16th notes though ha)
Tera Melos
Mars Volta

etc..etc..
 
Meshuggah, Karnivool, Porcupine Tree, Oceansize, Planet X, On the Virg, Periphery, Chimp Spanner and Tool will give you a decade of inspiration I'm sure. Extol are another cool one.

I can't say I've had a serious go at learning it, but I often draw on the rhythms from In death is life/In death is death.
