My dad saw em with Hanneman and Lambardo in the 1990s and we went to go see them in 2019 and i asked him after we went witch show he thought was better and he said the one with lambardovand hanneman
Well it started as them. I whole heartedly agree. And sometimes I just like to know where the f Kerry King comes off off with some of his diarrhea of the mouth.
Jeff's always gotten along with everyone (at least publicly). I've never seen him go out of his way to talk smack about any other musician but I'm sure he has his fair share of people that he generally hates.
@@jansandman6983 Well, every band at a certain level is run like a business. As they should, being in a band at that level isn't a hobby anymore. That's how they make a living.
@@Henry0870 I think it depends on the people within the band. Example: Metallica: It is obvious that Kirk, James, and Lars treat each other more than just business partners but have maintained their friendship as well. hence might be the reason for the longevity of their band's success more than other bands could ever wish for.
yeah its was very hard to find such a great drummer, but remmember that when they hooked up dave was still doing pizza deliveries and drumming for him was just a hobby. he did an amazing job learning so fast and so good without a teacher , and so did jeff. just look at how many "insane" drummers these days have well know teachers and yet they havent done anything memorable..xd
Absolutely agree, their impact is huuuuge, no need to be great guitarists, but really in the style they're playing, they're probably The Best anyways. Though still the fact that drummers like Dave were hard to find back then, hence I think he's had a bigger impact on the scene than them... he was virtually alone playing the way he had, fast & brutal like no other at the time. Glad to hear Jeff was the reason you'd picked up a guitar, he's my fave guy in Slayer as well, best songs he'd wrote...
There is also a live version of Payback where Dave does double bass at the end of Payback where the chorus repeats itself. Listen to that, and type to me with a straight face that headbanging isn't required. \m/
On the Big Four tour, they decided to play Am I Evil instead of some other song that they had previously chosen to all perform together. Kerry King refused to go up there and play Am I Evil with everyone.
Um, Paul and Dave are two different drummers. Paul played with brutality, and Dave played with aggressive feel. Listen to the fills on Ghosts of War, Hallowed Point and the coup de grace, the live version of Chemical Warfare. As a drummer myself (and I can prove it if asked) Dave can play the songs slayer did with Paul to the T if he wanted to, but plays them with his own added style to it. Paul is awesome, and when I first heard Divine Intervention, I had a hard on, but Dave>Paul IMO. :)
So true; all of my favorite Slayer songs were written by Jeff. Plus, even though Jeff's solos aren't anything that great in a "technical" way - his solos have some serious intensity whereas Kerry's solos are pretty awful. I don't know if I would even call them "solos" - mostly just wacky noises created by heavy abuse of the Floyd Rose style tremolo.
Yea I seen that in another with Dave, he said that Kerry was still booking a lot of their tours at the time and the same day he and his wife found out they were having a child he told Kerry about it and that he was he good to tour all the way up to September the month the baby was due. Said he didnt hear anything until late August, Kerry called up and said Dave we got some big shows show next month you gotta be there!! Thats really fucked up on many levels!!
You are correct on Dittohead, he doesn't really capture the work from Divine that well. Payback and Stain Of Mind is however not played wrong at all, Payback is thrashy and straight-forward and Stain is pretty simple acually. Dave does Disciple in his own way, though I like Bostaph's version better. But Dave plays the old stuff from 83-90 in a whole new ways that sounds fantasic, and I also like new stuff. In the end, I think of Bostaph and Lombardo as equals.
Kerry King is ALWAYS talking shit about someone. He did it to Lombardo when he got kicked out and he did it to Bostaph when he left. He's got a huge mouth when it comes to that but he usually makes nice with them eventually.
@mcfarlanehunter True, I read his interview and he said he approached the band with a knife actually hidden, if you can believe this, because he wasn't sure of how the band would react. He said they were cool about it, which surprised him. After he quit, he told Modern Drummer magazine he made just as much money as a security guard, but, thankfully he's back. Kerry just has a certain attitude, some people are like that, and won't change. I see them doing interviews together now
Everyone knows King is the Lars of Slayer. lucky to be in the right place at the right time with the other 3. And also turned into a duche so theres that
Anything Lombard's a part of sounds a hell of a lot better than if he wasn't.. I was listening to a Testament Cd the year it was released. Got on a Jet and was going to Mardi Gras. I really liked that cd a lot! It went into regular play for years. A few years after playing it I was looking at the cd cover and noticed... Lombardo was on drums!! I thought.. No wonder..
it's an old interview with Fantomas, where Dave joined Mike Patton for a while. Dave already left Slayer for some time and appearantly didn't departured on a real friendly basis
Lombardo got a forensic accountant ready to look at the bands' profits and Sony paid off Araya [$120,000] who then closed down Slayer. While Lombardo was still a founding member, King left and temporarily joined Megadeth. Who is King to pull rank on anyone?
One of the comments stated Jeff wrote the music and Querry King wrote the lyrics, basically that's untrue, we all know Jeff wrote "Angel" Tom wrote "South Of Heaven" (the song) etc etc and here is a little SLAYER trivia-Does anyone know who drew the famous SLAYER pentagram/sword logo?
@thrashtilldeth24 The good news is that they seem to be getting along together just fine now, and maybe Kerry realized that he had the best drummer in thrash metal in his band who also just happened to be a real nice guy. Just check out some Dave interviews and clinics. He loves giving back to the fans.
Kerry's mellowed out quite a bit over the last 10 years or so, but he's still a weird guy...he seems to be completely devoid of emotion or human warmth. Now, I know you're thinking, "No shit...he's in SLAYER"...but c'mon. He takes his persona way too far. Look at Tom Araya...still a heavy metal badass, but he's a very thoughtful, warm guy. I just wish Kerry would drop his tough guy shtick.
Lombardo as a drummer completed Slayer's reign as the supreme thrash band of the 80's. And there was a time when Lombardo left the band for a while wasn't as good. During the 90s, Slayer wasn't as good as other bands sorry to say.
+UnREALISTIC PICTURES True, after Season in the abyss I stopped listening Slayer because it didn't feel the same. After divine intervention the band change
and now Dave is back with Kerry in Slayer :-) I guess there is no need to love each other to play the music. Fantomas was interesting gig but I never was a big fan. I really love the other Dave's band - Grip Inc.
Kerry's words, he was mixing something for the broadcast and said he didn't have time to learn it. I learned that song when I was 16 years old all the time knowing sweet fuck all how to play the guitar. After today's news about Lombardo being kicked out of Slayer I guess I'll just download my Slayer stuff from now on.
That depends. Will he allow Slayer to continue recording and touring without Jeff? I'd like to see what he does after the band's current touring commitments and what will happen with the songs they supposedly recorded thus far for a new album. If he goes on like business as usual, it's a slap in the face to Jeff's memory. They're basically a tribute band at this point with only 2 original members. IMO, they should call it quits after all current touring obligations are finished.
i met this guy one time, bad feels! "i'm a star" , prefer Paul!!! backstage lyon with machine head 1994, give a terror crew t-shirt 2 chris, u can see it on "old" vidéo, respect.
I don't know if it's true... But I heard that Tom wanted them to play the four horsemen and the other bands didn't want to.... And it came out that Slayer would not go on stage, claiming that they had to edit their DVD.
Quite true, I absolutely agree: no Jeff, no biggest hits in Slayer...thus no Slayer. though Dave Lombardo is probably The biggest influence on the drummers of extreme metal genres in general... probably one couldn't say the same either for Jeff (or Kerry) as far as guitar...
@Jerlombardo29 Actually in Modern Drummer magazine he said he left because of band member friction , probably from Kerry, but Kerry is outspoken and often comments on other people's ability, like Mustaine. Come on, it's Slayer, they have to have Undisisputed Attitude! lol My guitar friend met Dave and said he was really cool to him, and every clip I see of Dave shows he's an extremely nice guy. He does drum clinics, I don't see other Slayer members doing clinics. but Slayer rules
The problem is, Lombardo told the band he wanted time for his family. Then he started his own band. That's kind of sticking the knife in on Dave's part. Other bands work fine when their members leave to branch out, maybe to try something different. I've seen Slayer with Dave and without, live and Slayer is Slayer. If Araya or King leaves, then there is no more Slayer. As far as I'm concerned, without Hanneman, Slayer should hang it up.
In contrary of metals biggest Schwein, These guys (Fantomas that is) have good taste and sense of humor, something which is not very common in the metal scene. Watch the lines from Buzz even better...
Of course not, this was not the issue... The debate was who'd made the biggest impact on the scene from the members of Slayer...who was the most influential as a musician on the upcoming bands that came after Slayer... that's all. Araya is irreplacable, no doubt about that.
well i agree, both jeff and kerry are not best guitarist in world but their style is iconic, their impact on trash m. is huge and jeff is the reason why i picked up a guitar in first place xD
@AGNTthrasher He even bashed Bostaph? Wow, I thought he was like Slayer's favorite backup drummer. Kerry speaks his mind, I'll give him that, it's up to yourself if you agree with what he's saying. I don't think he worries a lot what the fans say. Araya has always seemed to get along with Dave. How about Jeff?
Interesting perspective. I didn't know that about his father. You're probably right...he's clearly overcompensating with all tattoos, the beard, the wallet chain, the spikes...he's probably insecure and tries hard to toughen up his image. His shortness doesn't help either (Napoleon complex). However, he DID jam with the Big Four a few times eventually, although only after the fans got on his case for not showing up...and of course, he didn't acknowledge anyone else on stage while jamming.
The Comedy Central roast of Kerry King
Hosted by roast master Dave Lombardo.
Who else would pay money to see that?
***** Holy shit I would pay to see that
NTorres321 Really. We should get Comedy Central to roast him next
Kerry King is too arrogant egocentric and self absorbed to agree.
lombardo and hanneman make slayer for me. with both of them gone its just no the same.
Dude, i cant agree with you more!
My dad saw em with Hanneman and Lambardo in the 1990s and we went to go see them in 2019 and i asked him after we went witch show he thought was better and he said the one with lambardovand hanneman

AMEN!
Yup
Glad Dave had a bash at Kerry! Kerry deserves it! Dave and Jeff were the key ingredients of Slayer!
As a drummer myself I love Dave hes a down to business guy plays his ass off and Ive never seen him all fucked up ever
With Hanneman now gone its hard to like Slayer as much as did. With Lombardo gone its impossible.
When Lars was ill who did he call to fill in? Dave fucking Lombardo that's who!!
And Joey Jordison.
personally I thought Jeff and Dave were the best members of the band. i don't even recognize them as slayer anymore, just KK and Tom milking the name.
Exactly, not only the newer songs are forgettable, but also played with less "feel".
Jeff's always gotten along with everyone (at least publicly). I've never seen him go out of his way to talk smack about any other musician but I'm sure he has his fair share of people that he generally hates.
Kerry even says during an interview that him and Jeff weren't really friends it's just business. so he says.
@@jansandman6983 Well, every band at a certain level is run like a business.

this is awsome daves had a few and sayin what he feels

With the music in the background I cannot help but die laughing from this interview.
Whats funny is Lars doesn't even look like Ross Halfin that much
perfect background music for a slayer interview.
Yeah man, my best friend met him, too, and said the exact same thing.
jeff wrote the great shit anyway!!!
So true; all of my favorite Slayer songs were written by Jeff. Plus, even though Jeff's solos aren't anything that great in a "technical" way - his solos have some serious intensity whereas Kerry's solos are pretty awful.

What romantic background music for such a heavy topic.

Dave does like his coffee. I can only drink it in the a.m., not an evening drink for me.
I always thought lars ulrich looked like roger taylor from queen
The music reminds me of "Cinemax After Dark" from back in the day.
Maybe he'll live long enough to write a decent riff!
No I like Slayer, I just dont like Kerry King.
There is no Slayer without Tom's voice.
....way to go Dave!....KK swallow that!

KK is one of the most one dimensional guitarist ever. That band in general too.
I'm glad Dave and Kerry are settled now.
Lol

Dave. It's March 23rd. 2015 and I bet you're begging for this video it never existed
I don't think he gives a shit now lol
Tom araya said Dave said way worse shit to them right to their face. It sounds like Dave was always the outsider of the group, which is stupid.
He actually left Testament a few months ago =/ They have Gene Hoglan filling in for their new album/tour with Chris Adler doing a few songs.
Lombardo got a forensic accountant ready to look at the bands' profits and Sony paid off Araya [$120,000] who then closed down Slayer. While Lombardo was still a founding member, King left and temporarily joined Megadeth.
Who is King to pull rank on anyone?
I agree, the problem is that Kerry has the most of what Slayer needs to NOT work...
I have always thought Jeff was better.

I think Lombardo is one of the best drummers in the biz. It's too bad he has to endure the political nonsense.
Not really, it's an unbiased and correct view. I love both drummers, but Bostaph is technically sueprior.
Dave was screwed. Never bothered with the "Final Campaign".
Like Kerry's never done it.
