Lars in the only drummer I know that needs to proof that he really play the double bass.
do you even listen to metallica?
@@IdiotSerena until recently , he wasn't ...not a lot
...maybe all that criticism , finally got taken seriously , and he finally , got an instructor and wood shedded his ass off ..
he HAS seemed to improved DRASTICALLY on this last 12 months ...he even went on howard stern and demo-ed the famous "one " double bass role and actually did it WELL!!
if anyone saw some of their older tour vids where , you had to grit your teeth through one (or just skip it ) then you understand how awesome that was..
no ...lars has definitely upped his game .. and i'm finally happy for him .
You’re right. Others need to prove* they do.
Lars doesn't need to prove a damn thing. He has earned his spot with the rock gods. 🤘🤘
Maybe that’s because he was so god damn good at that time that no one could believe that someone could really play that way…hahaha
Give this man a break. He's definitely one of the drummers in the world.
Ha. I see what you did there.
😆
😂
😄👍
Let's see:
- He's a drummer ✓
- He's in the world ✓
Yup definitely he's one of the drummers in the world.
Lars looks like he is holding in a world record size dook every time he plays drums
Let's be honest, we all want a guy like Lars in out band... All jokes and memes aside, Lars' contributions to heavy metal as we know it cannot be ignored.
The fact he can cop all the sht on the chin without having a shtty attiude and laughing most it off says something. He's not like Axl
thats true, but anyone can replace lars.
@@noperception5073 He used to have a shitty attitude, and plenty of it. However - and I concede the point - he has matured greatly during the early to mid 2000's (Napster debacle + Jason's departure + James' stint on rehab) and became much more laid back. Nowadays, he's super cool and approachable. And yes, Axl is still kind of a moody manchild.
@@rafaellago172 cocaine probably had a large part to do with it. Never noticed the toothpick until someone in the comments pointed it out. Your points are all spot on.
I've actually notice James get a little LESS tolerant of BS, but with James that's kinda a good thing, he was starting to become a bit of a pushover in recent years.
what contributions, am really asking
Before the release of the new album, Lars rehearsed a lot, his technique has become much better compared to how he played about 10 years ago.
🤣
😂😅😅😂😅😅
Finally someone admits the truth
If you compare Lars to all the drummers in bands around the world you would quickly realize that he clearly is one of them.
Can you not hear how offbeat he is? He was more consistent when he was younger and, I get it, he's getting old, but holy f--- some of these recent shows have been... f---ing awful...
His 2-measure drum break in "Whiplash" is legendary IMO.
LOL zoom on in to catch that neck snapping 140 bpm double bass 🤣
Lars is the Draymond Green of drumming. Not perfect but he gets the job done
I’ve been lucky enough to see Metallica multiple times over the last few years and Lars was solid
He WAS getting the job done. Now he cant even do that
@@aykutaydogdu269 Well you’re commenting on their video and they’re playing stadiums so I think he’s fine
Lars is from the 80’s.
he was an absolute beast in the 80’s. he started fading in the 90’s. Aging doesn’t go well with the style of drumming he brought to the world in the early 80’s. This song was written in 1983. And ur talking about how the 60 year old man is playing it in 2023?
Ur just idiots.
Lars packed up shop signed off on his legacy, and moved to collecting checks only in 1997.
No, just no.
Yeah this is not true. Saw them recently and he was legitimately horrible.
This issue has never been IF Lars can do something, its been that he doesn't bother...Hetfield was recent talking about how they never used to rehearse because Lars wouldn't show up. Apparently something changed for this tour and he's taking it more seriously which is really cool!
Agree. It seems like he never touches a drum kit except when they tour. Just lazy, I think.
@@thehighdeath5562Lots of money normally does that to musicians. It makes them lazy.
I am not sure how accurate that is. There's tons of footage of them playing and rehearsing before shows from 20 years ago. I even read somewhere that when Mastodon toured with Metallica a few years before this tour, Bill Kelliher said that he has never seen a band that is as dedicated to practicing before a show as Metallica. He said that he felt bad about his work ethic when he saw them playing 2-3 hours straight before hitting the stage, constantly warming up and preparing. It's just that Metallica have lived pretty far away from each other in the last years. James and Robert pretty much need to take a flight just to get to HQ (their headquarters) and rehearse. If anything, Lars (and Kirk), who lives the closest to their studio is probably the last thing that stops them from practicing regularly. They probably get to play together mostly on the road / right before going out on the road or when working on an album.
Lars has simply become a lazy pig.
I don't understand it, the head of one of the biggest bands in music history wrote some of the best songs in the world with James. Earns hundreds of millions. Why on earth doesn't he just sit down for a few months with a metronome and practice his own music???
Delivering such pathetic performances while fans pay hundreds of dollars per ticket is an outrage
Howard Stern would be impressed
lol
Only Lars can make that feel, and I mean that in the most respectful way. One of a kind. Well done.
lol “only Lars.” Sure ok pal
Feel what? Hard?
Feel of loosing tempo
U can literally hear him fall out of time 😂
Yeah, just about every snare hit.
Literally never fell out of time once 😑
U can literaly hear U nag like and old hag
@@LarsHammet-rm8ic lol ok Metallica fan boy.
@@bendup52 At least he's not trackin.
Love him or hate him he is a drummer in a band
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang. Will go down as one of the most iconic metal drummers of all time. Bang.
I don’t how James and Kirk don’t mess up when Lars can’t even keep time. They must be used to it I guess,still love his drums on the studio stuff though
I kinda think that James actually keeps time
Because whenever he and Lars interact, Lars is almost on his toes, because they are long term buddies just playing what they love.
They have a click in their ears anyway, that's just how i look at it
@@yobrethrenThey definitely do not play to a click. If you play two performances of the same song at the same time they will go heavily out of sync after a while.
Lars just has a click before songs so the starting tempos are consistent
@@nicibrugier The snare count at 0.17 was so bad....
Have you heard the many times Kirk has fucked up with leg of the tour? The Nothing Else matters intro in NY? The Fade to Black intro in Montreal AND LA? James forgetting a whole section of song in Dallas? They don't need Lars to make fuck ups.
Kirk actually messes up quite a lot
Lars did his time and made his contributions when necessary. He moved the genre and drumming forward way more than most drummers in his prime. Whatever he can or cannot do today matters little when stacked against where he's been and what he's done. Go Lars.
This is real talk. \../
Theyre all stealing a living if you ask me. Sounds like a bunch of 12 year olds just making noise in the garage, yet 10,000's of people buy tickets to this shit because of their name alone. Literally hundreds of artists that deserve attention over Metallica but most people are clueless monkeys, that make copium comments like yours 🤣
This is nonsense. Metallica would be ten times better with a competent drummer
@@ianthomas1686 You don't understand how bands work.
Pretty sure Dave Lombardo did way more for drumming and metal than lars has
Love him or hate him Lars is one of a kind.
He’s the only Lars.
He WAS one of a kind. Nothing inventive about the crap he has put out in the past 20 years. Unless you count having the shittiest snare drum sound ever.
So was Hitler.
Well I couldn't see Lars being a frontman he doesn't have the voice that's why James is there.
@@fleatactical7390 Enjoy watching the show from the seats!
I can't believe this is the same guy that recorded Master of Puppets.
Do we realy know, he was playing it?
@@LynyrdS.73 I mean, I assume so, but I guess we can't be certain about that.
i heard the tape machine cut and paste method was playing it @@LynyrdS.73

The tempo is slow enough that my grandmother could play double bass on this.
🤣
Yep, I never managed to get the db speed of all my favourite thrash bands in my 25 years of playing, but I can do this comfortably
So Happy for you and your GM

This man is still a huge reason why I wanted to become a drummer.🤘
about fricking time. I've watched like 20 years of youtube and no one EVER has gotten his feet like this
LOL!
Because the footage has been too embarrassing to post.
@@fleatactical7390 lol
It’s a glitch in the matrix. You weren’t ever actually meant to see it happen
Lars is the perfect example of knowing someone.
OOF
WACKO.
Maníaco!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂💯
Yea a lot of people were very lucky to know Lars.
Nobody says he didn't play double bass, they just say he isn't good at it anymore
Maybe because he’s a 61 year old grandpa who’s been beating the drums for the last 50 fucking years
or ever was.
Can't lose it if you never had it to start with...
I don’t know why he’s not got better even just accidentally after being in one of the biggest bands of all time for 40 years
thinking the same. he looks like he is still skill level based of a teenager
That's because he gets lazy, he admitted that he doesn't practice in an interview but in recent times I saw a better drumming in his last concerts keeping time and playing old parts almost the same in a lot of songs
@@josealejandrocaraveo Na, he is bad.
@@stellarcubicbeam7760 That's not true, he compose great drums tracks and fills he deserves recognition, he inspire a lot of new drummer even Mike portnoy and other great drums holds respect for him
@@josealejandrocaraveo I can't hold respect for Lars, when people like Nicholas Barker and Babymetal's first, second and newest *best drummer*, destroy Lars.
Well he does some short runs, but skips a lot of db parts in many songs.
Ya, cos He probably knows hes not gonna make it, how it suppose to be done.
duh coz hes old. hes not a robot. give a man a break. hes done his fair share of drumming skills in his youth. lets see if u can still do what hes been doing when ur 60. stupid
@@maximpopov199 he plays everything like its supposed to be played. The entire band only got tighter and tighter in the last few years
Wrong
@@metalpuppet5798 Not obviously. Listen to what He played on the records back then, and what He plays now, He plays simlpified Versions of his own parts of the songs. And skips DB parts here and there. No disrespect to Lars, Hes got his right to do so.
Talking about getting older... Some of the most impressive double bass playing I heard recently was by Simon Phillips on a Derek Sherinian track called 'The Phoenix'. Fast db playing nearly 5 minutes straight - the Guy is 66 years old, people! And he just recently pulled it off on a live album...
Lars is lazy he could have fixed his technique and been flying on double bass .
@@mikecurran5349 He Just let it Go. But Hes doing it on gigs, so He practice that anyway. But what about his stamina?
@maximpopov199 he uses his whole leg when doing double kick which is exhausting I use to play like that .once I switched to using my ankles it became a breeze
@@mikecurran5349 Yeah, full leg motion type of playing takes too much energy. Ecxactly, ankle motion gives you power & stamina to play much longer period of time. Thats for sure.
i mean.. Simon Phillips is a well-established, properly GOAT'd drum GOD for several decades now. along the lines of Dave Weckl, Terry Bozzio, Vinnie Colaiuta, etc. Comparing him at age 66 to Lars at 18 is not even in the same _realm_ due to the immense chasm of skill disparities between them
Those overhead mic’s are so high they pickup the drum groove from the guy playing high up in the rafters.
Goddamn he's not even trying
That's what he's best at
YOU go try it
@@nehuge Why? I'm not the one who's supposed to be playing it
It’s a shame because if he put effort in he could play it, considering who wrote all these parts
But, single bass drum is 155 BPM and double is 148 BPM a whopping difference. I saw them at Download. Lars fell apart during "One". Sounding like the kit was falling down a flight of stairs.
that was literally a technical issue but considering you're here watching this you're probably just a troll
I have followed this band since MoP's. They were one of the reasons I went to download. Lars has taken his foot of the pump for decades, he clearly doesn't practice like the others. But he is an asset in songwriting and arrangement. I wish he would go back to the practice and get back into playing well. @@jord9261
Those 6 tuplets on the bass drums are a bitch to play perfectly.
@@mikeoxlong8272no it’s not if you know what you’re doing. It’s actually pretty easy. Lars just doesn’t care anymore.
@@Nmdixon-cu7vmbruh have you actually attempted to play that part to the actual song? Cause I did and it sure is a bitch to play right.
he's skipping a decent chunk of double bass here but i'd say he is a lot better than how he was in much of death magnetic and hardwired tours as he is more subdued and has better timing
@@ShockwaveZerodo you reply to every comment you dont read with that
@@ShockwaveZero bro it's less than a standard paragraph
@@ShockwaveZero we get it, you're illiterate
@@nofrbls3640 he's the peak of "im smarter than you" lunatics
You didnt properly listen back in the Hardwired and Death Magnetic tour then. He was just as good back then. He and the entire band have been super solid for years
Man he hits that snare hard!
that's all he does... he never learned technique nor dynamics. Now, he even dislearned. Hehehe, sorry, sad but true.
Tbh it's better to hit the drums hard than hit the drums to soft
@@MarcoPolux his style is the only style that will EVER fit into Metallica. He and the entire band only got tighter over the last few years
Drummers have no other choice if they want to be heard in louder music
Hits the snare hard like a caveman whispers like a ballerina on the double bass 🙄 that was the weakest db I've ever seen his beaters don't even go that far back at all so no power on the hits he should just start triggering them. Coming from a lars fanboy
For all that can be said about his drumming today, back in the day before the haircuts and pub rock albums, Lars was a huge influence with his style and when he used to play his parts like on the albums. Metal drumming has evolved so much that it left him behind.
Lars is the best drummer in Metallica 😂
He's the fourth best drummer in Metallica. lol
I like pony tail Phil collins lars
He wouldn't pass an audition to Metalica if they were looking for a drummer today
Most overrated drummer ever imo
Man, he wouldn’t pass an audition for a school garage band. If we were to isolate his double kicks, they’d be embarrassingly sloppy … the meter would be all over the joint.
Edit : For Lars to be this shit after drumming every day for decades is quite an achievement.
Also.... Kirk Hammett the only one in the band that's any good.... 0 credit
@@tonysegalini2528 Rob is great.
@posthawk1393 yeah seriously, glad u said it I was about be like really bro? Lol
What this man has created and accomplished in his career is much greater than any other drummer has ever had and that’s not opinion that’s a fact .RESPECT
The picasso of drumming, more older he gets, more like a kid he plays
im seeing them live just to laugh at lars he a smol man
Saw them in jersey a few weeks ago. Lars fucking killed it!
He made a lot of mistakes in Montreal
@@jd0879Canada isn’t real so it doesn’t count
@@jd0879not everyone's perfect at 59, let's be glad he's still playing and rocking for us 🤟
I was there in NJ both nights and I thought Lars was on point.
@@TomFoolary_ Around the same age Charlie Benante, Gene Hoglan, Danny Carey.
that was clean!
I do not think anyone has said that he doesn't do double bass. Even during the rock era during their live shows he did double bass on their old songs, however he did it poorly and still do.
Now don't get me wrong, I have seen live shows of them where he managed to pull off "One" but there is plenty of shows where he does not.
And people bring up his age, his age has nothing to do with it. Nicko McBrain is 71, is still killing it on the drums and he doesn't even have to simplify his playing like Lars does.
What matters is practice. Hellhammer is 54, a few years younger then Lars and yet he practice drums atleast 2 hours every day. Not only does he have better stamina, his double bass is perfect and his playing is still tight as hell.
Lars doesn't practice which he has been open with so it is no surprise he is very sloppy behing the kit.
Nice to see he is becoming good again. He is a drum legend. He built a legacy, good to see him being more solid. Well, we all get that being old makes drumming harder, he is not playing blues or bossa nova.
Yea, bossa nova is way harder
@@andrepereira744 requires control but waaaay less energy and youth
Wtf? This vid is sloppy AF.
He's no legend. He's always been a guy that just plays for a paycheck. He practiced more when Cliff or Dave wrote and demanded stuff with chops. Out of courtesy many other metal drummers keep their mouths shut, but a "drum legend?" Silly statement. Lars doesn't play for the art, growth or passion. The same reason he's in the corporate metal band. To make money. He's no different than Gene Simmons or Paul Stanley. Check your praise of the guy. He's a business manager moonlighting as a drummer. Always has been.
@@zoso1980but Paul Stanley was constantly training vocals up to 10x, in 83-89 there was generally his peak vocal form, it was wonderful and technical. Gene gets into the rhythm perfectly, not to mention the inventive bass parts in the 70s. So they are musicians, and they have always done their musical work efficiently, unlike Lars. Yes, and they are boots of 20 cm and 5 kg on each leg. Dedication, however
Fire 🔥
old school legend
I really like his playing. He is not clean... he is no Danny Carey, But he seems to enjoy it. Not everyone has to be a Virtuoso. I likr his style, as sloppy as it can be.
Let me ask you something. If Metallica were just starting out today, do you think their current music/releases would sell?
Also, do you think if Metallica were starting out and auditioning drummers... they would hire Lars?
IMO, the answer is "Hell no" to both of those.
@@fleatactical7390that’s true, but no band that sounds like Meticallica would be popular today so that’s a pointless argument. The only people who still like Meticallica are older than Lars, and they aren’t musically advanced enough to appreciate a drummer that can play double bass a whole song anyways. Meticallica is a mainstream band and you never hear double bass on the radio so it’s perfectly fine for them.
@@The0nlyy I see your point. They and Lars stopped wanting to lead and innovate and instead wanted to be popular and accessible.
Holy crap. Timing is all over the place. Someone get this guy a metronome
It’s the recording and how the sounds are lining up. Sounds different with a proper recording of the live performance.
FACTS
Just looking at his posture and the way he is sitting, legs tucked back under his seat . You couldn't make it any more strenuous on an aging body to play double bass. He's still a legend, just wish he kept improving through his career instead of just leveling off.
i remember my first time playing drums...
I love it when bands let people come up and play for them
What an underrated comment
The drumming is simple, but Lars still gets it wrong a lot.
There’s so much double kick on 72 Seasons…he just doesn’t do it 100% of the time. Sounds terrific.
I knew he could back on the pupoets tour when cliff was still in the band. Lucky enough to catch him live shortly before his death.
If that's double bassing, I'm good at double bassing.
Enjoy the show double bassing from the seats, maybe you will be sitting next to fleetestical!
No thanks. I'm usually on the kit during our shows. Not much of a Metallica fan to go to one of their shows.
@@afrojojo9475 by your shows you mean playing to 100 people at max?
I'm very happy they finally opened that long lost crate from the "Justice" tour that had his feet in it!
Yeah, but this must have been the crate marked "defective."
What song is?
I love you Lars!
He’s definitely up there with the drummers in the world.
But the next album, Lars will be down to a Hello kitty 3 piece drum kit.
That time when Lombardo and Jordison made Lars cry.

Tom hunting from exodus still great
@@paisteplayer1040 Both made mistakes on Battery and Creeping Death on Download 2004.
Minor mistakes playing songs that they are not used to playing.. Otherwise the drumming is far superior to lars.
@@MegaTeostyle lets imagine lars trying to play Anthrax or slayer songs.. Amusing.
As watching this my friend runs in and says, who’s building a shed in here ? Lol
He’s got the meter of a washer/dryer combo.
People give this guy a lot of crap, but they forget he was one of the most influential players in the earlier years of thrash.
in which way?
He was not, he was in an influential and important band, but as drums skills? Not even close.
Dude, I have been listening to this band more of my life than not. And that man has been practicing lately. Good on him for real Lars. Used to be super sloppy and lately. He has gotten up to speed on his game.

@@Gurnu Yeah🤜
This is the most honest comment about Lars you will ever read!! He sucks now!! BAD!! But in the 80's he was a pioneer and forever an lcon because of it!!
Nope. Castronovo was a pioneer, not Lars
Time is just a magazine, apparently...
Remember that part of truly getting good at your craft is learning economy of effort. It's not that you can't double-bass or downstroke every note on guitar, it's that you don't have to. You proven it many times over already and honestly, it sometimes sounds awesome to loosen up a bit and just do the fastest or hardest parts for emphasis. GO!!
Oof, when he does the three-count on the hi-hat at 0:18. He goes out of time with this own counting, then starts the beat too soon. Love Lars but that is painful.
Well, as they say, "love him or hate him..." Listen, at the end of the day it gets dark.
Lars es un gran baterista.
I mean isnt Lars 59 years old? At that age I would be happy to play even 50% of what he is doing right now. It's true that he wasnt never SUPER good with doublebass, but what the hell the man gets the job done (somehow) and that seems to keep the fans happy. What else is there to say? :D
Chris Kontos is from '68, and he's killing it.
Don't confuse stamina with technique. Yes, at 59, being able to pull off a metal concert is impressive but the argument here is whether he can double kick or not. Age is not important in that.
Listen to AJFA, buddy. Outstandig double bass drumming.
Nicko Mcbrain is 71 and hasn't skipped a beat. Lars just ain't it.
Danny Carey is a 60 year octopus who makes a hour and a half show look effortless, this on the other hand is dreadful.
He still goes hard on the double kick on Fade To Black
Danny Carey from the band Tool is 2 years older than lars. ... to repeat or not to repeat. That is the weakness
How would he not if he's playing all those old songs with double bass in it?
Lol, most of the time he doesn't play these double bass parts.
He skips it live, and sometimes there is a db samples in mettalica live videos.
Even the fast double bass parts recorded on AJFA were dubbed in because he couldn't play them consistently
the official and nice term is "rearrangement"
@@hazardeur lol 🤣
People be like, I can play better in my room alone than he can in a stadium full of people.
He’s holding on for dear life
I kinda am over the mildering bass thing in the first albums. Now he’s Lars and he’s drumming most of the time, and he’s pretty good. :) and he still does his pretty intense drummimg throughout all these years. I hope he can do this with this passion for a long time to come.
Make Lars great again!
He never was.
...And justice for Lars!

loves a throne thumper he does
Lars has been totally on fire both during last year’s festival tour and during this years M72 tour. Saw them playing two festivals in Europe last year and twice in Amsterdam this year and sounded great! Tight, energetic, good tempo’s. Performing like this for over 2 hours straight while pushing 60. My deepest respect. Actually got the pleasure of meeting Lars last week in SanFran and he was totally cool and down to earth, took the time for a short chat and some photo’s even while he was having a night out. Thanks Lars for all the great music and shows you bring to us!!
Hell yeah, that's fucking sick man
i can see why he struggles. its all in his technique. He is sitting too low along with the fact that his feet are too far up the pedal to the point where his toes are aligned with the beater. This is what causes his bad technique. He is using his thighs more than his ankles which is why he gets tired out so quickly and struggles with tempo and clean double bass while keeping his energy. He needs to sit up higher, and have his toes about half way down the pedal to utilize his ankles more and get more power from the beater swing. took me a long time to figure this out playing double bass. surprised he hasnt after 40 years
good point, I still struggle today to find the best way for long and fast double bass playing, I started in 1987 with a single kick and playing heel down and for years i played heel down double bass too, and I'm a big guy almost 2 meters tall, when my seat is too high i would need 28" bass drums to not look like a monkey behind the kit, haha. And playing metal needs constant practize something I have not done in many years. For the music I play I don't need superfast double bass that made me lazy too
I think whatever Lars is doing, it is working for him and has been for decades. Pretty sure he doesn't need any advice :P
@@AnonyBass you're right.
metal drummer here. Yep, I agree. Poor technique. I can put down 16ths@160bpm indefinitely because I'm letting my Trick pedal and momentum do some of the work for me.
@@Centerpieceofmind It's hilarious how many people bash Lars just to bash Lars. There are literally bazillions of videos of him on UA-cam from behind where you can clearly see his feet moving up and down on normal pedals hitting every single note thats played. Must suck to be that jealous of someone that you feel like you have to bash them. There are a million bass players that are better than me, but I don't go on Geddy Lee's page telling him how crappy he is just to make myself feel better.
I searched "best moments of lars ulrich" and i found only two videos that aren't a meme of lars or a video of lars saying stupid things
he is still pretty good with single pedal double strokes
For How many years and gigs he played with single pedal? Using double pedal for short runs mostly. Of course he's good with single kick.
Lars is a Legend. Without Lars Metallica never would have been formed.
Hetfild is a legend with or without Lars. Lars alone is nothing...
Fuck yeah

Exactly who would replace him? the end od Metallica...
@@ned1621 yeah, look at slayer. we missed them but we couldnt do anything but to listen to their records. same thing will happen to them, so just love their music. coz when theyre gone, theyre gone.
its really sad when you need to point out that the biggest metal band in the world has a drummer that can indeed do sloppy double bass
Looked clean to me
That narrative is pathetic. If Lars is that sloppy, the band would fall apart live on multiple occasions- and lose all of their fans. Because who would want to listen a band that bad live.
40 years it didn't happen. And Metallica is considered the biggest metal bend of all time. Very hard, near impossible, to do it if the drummer is that bad, I'd say.
@@aleksandarradovanovic8496 yeah I never understood why Lars has this reputation. I think everyone just wants to feel better than someone especially if that someone is Metallica. The whole 'Lars is bad ' Mandela effect mainly seems like an excuse for less practiced musicians to justify their inadequacy
I'm more impressed that he still uses a butt kicker attached to the bottom of his seat.
The best.. end of story
Its a 150bpm 16th note pattern---anybody can play that.
even a fetus?
No one said he doesn’t do it anymore, he’s just not any good at it.
He does do double bass in so much as he hits both bass drums.
Of course à king of drums as lars always plays double bass and he has created some wonderful part of track with his famous double bass Eternal support from a French fan of Metallica 👍💪🤘🇫🇷
Anyone who pays to see Metallica live over the years feels the double kick in their chest each and every time he does it. The ones who sit home on UA-cam watching poorly shot cell phone videos where you can't here shit are the ones doing the majority of complaining. They know not what they speak of. Then some just hate Lars cause it was trendy.
Correct, they're just typical snowflake "fans" who love to whine and cry about anyone and anything, plain and simple.
@@jcm3587Sad day when metalheads turned into Karens
It’s actually a miracle that Lars is so bad. After playing drums constantly for so many years, you’d think he would have grasped one or two fundamentals which eventually stuck.
Your statement proves that technically great drumming is vastly overrated. Metallica sells out stadiums because they have great SONGS. That's the most important thing.
@@elmoblatch9787agreed. people love to complain
@@elmoblatch9787 Actually, the commercial side of the music industry is devoted to and dependent upon consumers who have absolutely zero musical or instrumental acumen. The mere fundamental basics of instrumentalism / songwriting cannot satiate the musical needs of those of us in the know. Cerebral bands like DEEDS OF FLESH and ARCHSPIRE (for e.g.) write songs which can be musically deemed as “great”, as opposed to METALLICA feeding the obligatory, remedial lame-metal to the ignorant masses which requires no comparative expertise to formulate, learn or play. Popularity does not equate to greatness.
Edit : Technical drumming is only overrated by non-musicians and the instrumentally ignorant. A drummer doesn’t marvel at one of his peers due to their fellow musician’s complete lack of technical prowess and nobody attends a drum clinic in order to watch someone play a 4 on the floor beat.
He swivels with his right foot but not the left... I think I'm beginning to understand why the "darkness" section of one has always sounded sloppy when Lars plays it live
