hey dudes. lars its a very chep drummer...sorry! i wish all best from germany (chemnitz)...your GreyCapHippie frome the "suppenzone".. 🙂PS: can i become a shirt or sticker from howard ?...
@@KrautRockt What ?
"How do you play drums Lars?"
"Tennis"
The way my family plays tennis means i play drums in a way that is not unique at all... Or related to tennis.
*Tenniz
😂😂🎉
They were a family of champions. Agile, sporty and physically-coordinated. Makes sense to me.
Tennis has nothing to do with bass drum technique@@anniedarkhorse6791
That's not strange for a metal drummer at all.
Haha i was looking around for mike on these stern videos
Ok boomer.
Thank you, I knew someone else was thinking what i was thinking.
When Howard has musicians on that I already know a lot about I try and remember that he’s asking questions that would keep casual listeners engaged. So maybe someone out there got their first idea of how double-bass works.
The question to invoke insight and thoughtfulness was appreciated by me as a casual fan
My soul is replenished hearing and seeing Lars get in detail how he sees his own drum parts and position in the band. How it's an orchestra of emotion and different rhythm sections
Thought it was interesting, making note of the physical songs versus the mental. It’s absolutely true. The progressive stuff is killer.
He has always been one of the primary arrangers of their music and is an absolutely integral part of the band.
ALL TALK
@@drumtwo4seven proof?
@@suprchickn7745mhmm..
Great to see Lars get to talk about his drumming in detail, great segment Howard.
I would love to see more videos of him talking about his drumming and demonstrating it.
There's absolutely nothing unusual or unique about playing with your heels up... I guess maybe it's interesting for non drummers though.
@Thomas Trotter so %99
I agree, but careful when you want Lars to talk. You’ll probably get worn out.
To be fair Lars can’t open his mouth without taking 3 minutes to say something that takes most people 30 seconds so you know you were gonna get detail lol.
Even though after all these years he's still got no idea
Not all of Howard’s fans are metalheads. Therefore he’s keeping the listeners interested and engaged. His target audience is still mainly satellite radio listeners. Metallica for life! ❤
Morbid Angel for life.
Slayer
@@pm9666🤘🤘
@@robertwalker3357 🤘🤘
Howard's target audience is 🌈
I’ve been a Metallica fan for decades and this the first time I seen Lars explain his drum technique let alone foot cam.
Thats probably because the technique he is using is also used by 99% of all drummers. There is no need for an explanation as to why lol.
Yup
@@Draugheim Let's not talk about that triplet mess that's going on in his feet. xD
I am not a Metallica fan and I saw his foot cam in lots of concert videos
@@Draugheim No they aren't.
0:27 the way James and Robert was feeling the bass coming out if the bass drum lol
Reminds me of when people touch a pregnant woman’s stomach 😭🤣
@@cassied9327it’s kicking! 😂😂
Justice has always been their best album. The drums Lars wrote for AJFA are some of his best and also its some of Kirks best solos.
Everyone just went hard af on justice.
And they've been mediocre ever since...
Mop
Well everyone except Jason
Ok expert, that is your opinion.
They were a lot younger
frayed ends of sanity... the song that made me want to learn how to play drums and made me buy an e drumkit to play at home....... is a gem
Honestly, I think I can verbalize the entire drum track on that album, and play a healthy portion of it as well. To me, that is hands down the best metal album ever. It stands the test of time, that's for sure.
That particular song has so many changes. It's the one that took me forever to learn, and for some reason I still struggle with today. The fast stuff is simple. The odd time signatures and changes were always the biggest challenge for me.
If drumeo were to get him for a interview and drum lesson/session that would be epic 🤘🤘
He is expensive $$$$$
Bro that's a good point. All this time I just realized that Lars rarely talks alone about drumming 😅
@@mutantkoffee Well yea he is worth 350 millions usd dollars. LOL
Drumeo is for actual drumers
No way Drumeo would have Lars on. He is no way technically able to do a lesson. Great songwriter. Epic businessman. Kudos for his success. Not the best drummer going around.
Lars is a legendary drummer. His compositions and ground breaking drums have influenced generations and still will
Completely agree. There's all these nondrummers that want to cut Lars down, but the truth is without Lars, there is no Metallica And the grooves he came up with on everyone of their songs.
💯
i remember when lars said the same thing about phil taylor from motorhead
@@MetalMe55iah Phil is legendary. He created the double kick.
In 72 Seasons he puts basic grooves down over the guitars but in new ways really fresh
He may not be the most technical, fast, or smooth, but he is sure a legend !!!. Nice of Howard to give him the respect of a feature spot with some compliments thrown in.
Luckiest "drummer" ever ...
@@luisovares4257
Lucky?? Do you even know how much he does in and for Metallica??
@@luisovares4257 Writing the drum parts, arranging all those songs and merchandising a band to be as big as Metallica is, is not being "lucky"
Drummer should be precise, technical, smooth, creative, then fast and after having all of that he might be a legend. lars have nothing i mentioned 😅
@@Martee234 totally
I'm not a Lars fanboy, but I respect his place in metal drumming. He's definitely paid his dues, & this was a really cool clip.
Thanks for taking the time to shed some light on metal drumming for your audience!
James and Rob at 0:29 are great 😂
they are gentlemen with etiquettes
I love hearing Lars drumming on his own, his kit sounds awesome imo
I love how they get in to it and it takes a bit before they stop 😂
Lars is a legend and a lot of his parts are different and creative. Its not about speed, its about vision, art, creativity and serving the songs. Ringo, phil selway from radiohead, bonham, dave ghrol, etc get that and lars is up there, he changed and helped creating some of the biggest metal and music anthems.
Well said 👍
Just stop. He is neither inventive or very good at drumming. He is good at playing Metallica level songs. Beyond that……./.
@@xkmmx2132 Stop it! With all that nonsense. you just contradicted yourself.
@@xkmmx2132 that says a lot considering the longevity of the band
@@xkmmx2132 and what have you accomplished?
People legit thought he couldn’t do kick pedal….lars is a great drummer and insane at producing songs
Love the in depth analysis of this stuff! As a musician myself, very cool to listen to!!
I know it's a long answer with nuance but I'm absolutely dying at 1:57
"What is the hardest Metallica song to play?"
2:08 Lars: "Enter Sandman"
🤣🤣
didn't say that, said the justice stuff
What?
@@jistikoff2361 He said that Sandman and Sad but true are the more physical ones, but for him the ones that require a lot of thinking are the hardest ones.
@@adan1272 yes and?
I'm surprised Lars plays that pattern at 1:29 with just a single foot, I personally get worn out really quickly if I *don't* play that with two feet haha
well 40 years doing it, probably gives you extra strengh!
he only played it for 5 seconds
@@weshoskins74 always someone hating on lars
Not too difficult! I could do it.......
@@whatchagonnadowhentheycomeforu lets see
I love that he's not playing 16th notes or 16th note triplets on the one part, but a Lars's special "in between" sauce
That's some strange flam type of stuff happening there. xD
it's nice to hear Lars talk about drums. You don't often hear him discuss it so...yup!
Such an iconic beat
Loved how the majority of the tough songs he mentioned were AJFA ones. Indeed, some of those tunes are intricate with tempo/meter and structural changes and all the different fills he throws in each time around.
Richard definitely had something to do with Howard asking this question. Thank you for inspiring such a great bit Richard, you're my faaaavourite
Lars is definitely one of the drummers of the world.
He definitely is a drummer and definitely of the world, agreed
ok i have to admit that i was impressed at 1:30...didnt expect those doubles
What’s impressive on that ?
@@ayjay359 try playing it yourself, you'll see.
@@k1775 easiest shit ever
@@ayjay359 its not impressive in general. it was impressive considering Lars
@@facepalmjesus1608 To keep doing doubles at that speed clean and consistent for 3 minutes straight for example is hard without practice.
One thing I love about Lars is his devotion to Tama drums.
That was SUCH a dope segment
Metallica wouldn't be the band they are without the drive of Lars. That has to be an undisputed fact.
Not to mention his song composition.
@Jared H just that indeed, still in a garage somewhere
exactly. He might not be the greatest drummer and be sloppy some times but I can't imagine Metallica without him
@@Jimmy69420being in a band isn’t about individual technical ability, that’s why it’s called a BAND
@Jared H thats also true but regardless they would be hated and not as big as they are today. Thats the thing lars wasn't just a drummer he guided the rest on when and how to play their instruments at times even motivated them and wrote alot of the songs with and without James. Without Lars metallica would just be a mediocre band perhaps with a good drummer.
A lot of speed metal drummers play heal down and can play much faster that way, but heal up tends to sound better because you have more power in each hit.
Heel down has way more power heel up is more about speed
What does any of this have to do with speed metal?
If you use triggers its the same
I do both on that part … start 2 hits heel down and 4 hits heelup … it’s very easy and I can’t play it for days …
Lombardo
For me, Lars played his drum in Metallica songs are unique … I don’t know how to say, it’s sound easy but hard to play …
Well, not our fault you dont know other bands. ANY OTHER drummer plays better. Just wasnt so rich at the time.
Same deal with Phil rudd, he mentioned him for a reason
@@MyDeceptionOfficial lars drumming in and justice for all is next level shit you have to admit
Nah it is pretty easy to play on drums, coming from a drummer 😊
@@jasonpeisley6031 How about Ajfa
I love that the music is just in them! automaticly picking up and tone in. Thats just their nature! Love it.
Frayed ends of sanity is one of my favorites. That entire album was badass.
This was cool to watch.
I don't care what the haters say, Lars has always and will always be my favorite drummer of ALL TIME.
LOOLL
Igor Cavalera , Lars Ulrich and Vinnie Paul are my fave drummers!
He has to be someone's favourite, I suppose. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Agreed! Same!
Me too
Love the way lars describes things❤✌
Kudos 👏 to Howard for having the mind to ask what people wished they could ask?? N Lars for breaking it down for us!
Howard’s got to watch some of Estepario Siberiano. Or any extreme metal drummer for that matter :-)
The cut over to the mixed sound and that ratatatata snare that he favours nowadays was really interesting. Before I knew a little music I thought Lars was the most amazing drummer (and AJFA was the first album I really knew, I got it almost on release) but came to realise there's better technical drummers but few have the all round sense of the band that Lars has. He's a composer and arranger that happens to play drums.
This was a great segment... awesome insight from lars :)
that drum beat is my all-time favorite.
I see Lars as a songwriter/arranger first and a drummer second. But his drum parts are iconic.
This was the best interview I’ve ever seen them do
The Frayed Ends of Sanity is my favorite song!
I just love ...And Justice For All as a whole...
But that song is just beyond in complexity!!
Truly groundbreaking stuff here Howard
Taught myself how to play double bass playing along to One. I play with my heels up.. that's normal imo. I think playing with you're heel down is weird and uncomfortable lol. Lars and Lombardo will always have a special place in my heart.
The 1st time I ever heard double kick drumming was from Lars Ulrich in this song. He is a metal drumming pioneer.
Charles Lee Benante.
Stefan Kaufmann
haha....double bass drumming is much much older than LU...
definitely not
No, he's not
This was so entertaining to watch! How They all help out and
That is how almost every metal drummer plays the kick at that speed
surprised he didnt mention dyers eve lmfao
I think that's much harder in Rythem guitar than drums.
@@shugghead8538 you are having a laugh.....
@@shugghead8538Me too I was sure he was going to mention it but Dyers Eve is doesn’t have as much time changes as Frayed or Straw
@@jd0879 the point is it’s fast.
How could Lars forget Dyers Eve. That is for sure the hardest song on drums in Metallica’s discography.
That or FFwF
I was hoping he would just say dyers eve. Shit is so hard
I think Dyers Eve is by far the most challenging song he’s ever played, foot-wise.
And Battery
@@neoshida
Battery is fast but doesn’t have the same relentless double bass that Dyers Eve does.
Love the purple kit he is playing. Looks cool.
I can’t help but feel this is soooooo overdue, lol. It’s been a long time coming, but it’s cool to see a pedal cam of Lars doing his thing nowadays.
Just Lars at 59 y.o. shutting some mouths, legend.
lol, nah.
Lol
Actually this playing, with all other instruments muted, provoked more speaking, all of his patterns were sloppy, some a bit, some AF
Great question... I often wondered about any repetitive motion injuries from constant playing!!
I just got those drumsticks and they are amazing I love lars
If Lars offered religious services to Kermit the Frog, he’d be a Pastor of Muppets ...
LMAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣
*Dark Angel stares intensely with arms crossed*
This is the beauty of Metallica explained. Thank you!
Legend.
Lars is one of the drummers of all time
He’s definitely one of them.
Really crazy to me that Lars has made it this far in one of the most revered metal bands in history.
y?
Lars owns the name Metallica. It's his band.
People used to say that about Ringo with the Beatles.
He pretty much is half the main writing team and arranges every song. Drumming skill or not, he's absolutely essential to the band's success.
Why would it be? He’s why their the most Revered metal band of all time.
Lars is amazing I don't care what others say GO LARS!!
IKR he’s Amazing 🤩
He’s amazing at his drumming skills
All I wanna say is I love Lars!
This is the first real proof I’ve ever seen that Lars does the classic thrash beat with just one foot instead of two. I always wondered…
Absolute drum god 🙌
This is the type of stuff I love, getting into how these artists do what they do. I love how Howard’s genuine intrigue for music comes through when he asks these types of detail oriented questions.
03:10 tempo struggling
Thanks, I noticed the same thing 😅
Lars is great. People may joke, but he's a successful drummer/musician, and that's what counts.
He's not.
@@dcmastermindfirst9418I mean, he's part of Metallica, a successful band, but okay lol
@@dcmastermindfirst9418hes not bubububububuu 😢😢😢😢to
@@TheKamillosdanny He does.
Ask a drummer.
@@dcmastermindfirst9418 you can chill out, you're not talking with your mom here lol
That Starclassic is gorgeous in that colour.
wow if that impresses Howie, he should have Gene Hoglan on
as a drummer myself watching this clip was church👍👍💯❤️
Nice that Howard flew out to the LA studio to join the boys.
If they can come in, he can finally come out.
Lars is the number one reason I keep tapping on everything-since way back 😁
LMAO!! even Lars cracks a smile when Stern says "it's almost imposible play that fast"
Melhor baterista do mundo da melhor banda do mundo!!!
Respect!
Amazing to watch
Lars is LOVING hearing someone say he's fast 😅
Nobody talked crap about Lars in 1985-1989 that's for sure.
83 to 91 … 👍
“I love 4 on the floor”
Plays 1 & 3 😅
I've always loved Lars's drumming.
most drummers play heels up. unless you swivel.
When I play on my step dad's drum set, I play heels up as well. I've seen drummers use their whole foot, don't know how they do it
@@jeffreycraig4493 Swivel foot technique.
@@JohnStonebraker heel-toe and swivel are totally different things. You can still swivel your foot with the balls of your feet while keeping heels up
@@jeffreycraig4493 quite playing is much easier with heel down. that is the difference. also, you can swivel with either technique.
I’ve always played heels up
I been playing drums 40 yrs , 90% if not more of all drummers including myself play heels up , not sure what the hoopla is about
Such a piller in the metal community I know a lot of drummers talk crap about him but he really started a lot of what metal drumming is today 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Chris Adler rocks from heel to toe. Watching his double bass is awesome.
The riff in "Ruin" with the heal-toe pattern on the longboards is just insane
@@Dink_Jenkins YES!!
Lars is legendary in a Ringo kinda way. You could replace him with Gene Hoglan, but you wouldn’t be able to call the band Metallica.
You could call them Hog Land.
Gene Hoglan is BS. He cheats.
Gene would be far too qualified for Metallica. Most of what he does isn't required in their songs.
Lars is a great musician and i love him.
Love you, Lars!
0:55 haha it's funny how JH sort of escapes from running jokes on Lars, 😂😂😂
Sensacional !!!
Richard christy smokes Lars !
@@PSP6055 no he doesn't bro not even close.
lars nailed that One part, he rarely does, he's been practicing
rarely?? That's a stretch
LEGENDS
I am self taught in all my instruments and recording/editing etc. I play heels up too!
Even when playing guitar and editing?
@@farshimeltYeah. Everything.
As a drummer this method is no magic but it’s very impressive and a pro or mastery lvl of skill with it
