    Gotta hand it to Lars, his technique may be simpler than other drummers' technique, but in the 80s and early 90s, he had a very prolific approach to playing the drums.

    • @freedom6046

      Lars drumming was great on the first 4 albums but he wanted to take a simpler aproach for the black album 🙂

      ​@@freedom6046 The whole idea of the Black Album was to make an entirely different album compared to previous ones, because they needed to go in an entirely new direction. That's why they got Bob Rock (his first time working with Metallica) to produce the album.

    • @nashvillan76
      @nashvillan76 Рік тому +2

      @@freedom6046 a lot of that was Bob Rock, who produced the “black album.” (as well as the next for a albums) and encouraged the band to simplify their music writing in order to appeal to a broader audience. The average listener is not familiar with some of the key changes, uneven timing signatures and syncopated beats, so they don’t give it a chance. Rock remedied that by simplifying the music, which brought the band bigger success. I personally miss the more “complex” songs. 😊
