"Try a more solid beat"
James was slightly pissed.
Well..in lars defence, the riff was crap...
@@filiperamos9667 Sounds like something from Lulu.
How does he have souch patience for Lars??? It's actually incredible
@@filiperamos9667 "it sounds stock to my ears"
There is no defence to that beat, it was god awful
Metallica is the only band where the rhythm guitarist/vocalist actually dictates the rhythm and stays in time, and not the drummer.
Well, in a lot of bands it's the bassist and not the drummer, but both are more important than the rhythm guitar lmao
@@browncoat697 Bassist yeah right they wish
The Who were quite similar in that John Entwistle, as a bassist, kept the whole thing going while Keith Moon, the drummer, went off on a ridiculous, usually drunken, solo! It’s funny, I was in a band where the drummer used to watch me for changes when I was playing guitar! Some bands just have a weird way of clicking and not being what you’d think of as ‘traditional’.
You better learn to read music first bud.
Is this the kids arguments corner?
Lars makes me feel like I can play drums
If you actuallu tried I'm sure you could, he does not try
You actually can outplay Lars in less than 2 years of daily practice
Try recording "And justice for all..." without dying.
@@thetruthisoutthere5173 that’s what I was just thinking
@@SuperManfinflero I out played Lars in less than 4 months lol. He really is awful
"Lars is a terrible drummer. I know people like to shit on Ringo but Lars is in a league of his own"- Dave Mustaine
Ringo was and is still great
who tf shit on Ringo?
There are people who say Ringo sucks? I never heard that. When you look for some infos on Wikipedia you'll find some quotes from band members or producers about people saying that he was and is very underrated and talented. There are hundreds of record tapes and only a handful of them include fails from Ringo.
Ringo just gets hate cuz he was in possibly the most famous pop/rock band in history. He’s not bad at all
Ringo isn’t some generational talented drummer like some legends, but he is 100% a solid and competent drummer
Interviewer "Do you think Lars is the best drummer in the world"?
James "Lars isn't even the best drummer in Metallica".
jayzes, is Metallica the next Beatles already? am i That Old?? xD
(to be fair though, i stopped listening to the "radio" after i heard Enter Sandman on the 'Classic Rock' station lol)
paul mccartney was the one that originally said this about ringo star.. not sure
@@WarRior-rn4kb he didn’t say that it’s a myth
😂😂😂😂
@@WarRior-rn4kb he didn't say that it's a myth
Sucks to be his bassist lol.
Why they need trujillo
@@Jearbearjenkins yeah, poor trujillo. Must have been heaven for him when jordison played for them once.
That’s why Jason left.
Not as bad as it sucks to be Lars Ulrich.
@@francotamayo94 no its not lmao
*Lars is the definition of 'Practice does not make perfect' after 40 years of drumming*
My impression is that he doesn't practice much. He used to be good. He actually sounds a bit better on some recent videos, like he's been practicing. What we're seeing here is like an athlete that stops doing their daily drills and thinks, in their head, that they're still as good as ever.
Lars has stated he doesn’t practise
@@richarddunne9802 But how good really... They had to edit the shit out of the drum parts on their earlier albums to make him sound tight. But you watch him play live and he's all over the place. 80s, 90s, 2000s, doesn't matter.
@@Fucklesticks that's not true at all.
@@Fucklesticks czcams.com/video/Ws1WqMOxpQs/video.html
Try to pull that shit off, bet you'd trip your fatass
jame's furious downpicking is a result of holding in his anger towards lars
It all makes sense now! 😂
Underrated comment
🤣🤣🤣🤣
You mean his..... ST. ANGER
*James'
Nah man, Lars is just trying to be more progressive with his drumming. The problem is that he doesn't tell the rest of the band
I know you’re joking but that was literally what was going on in the Get Called Out/More Solid Beat clip.
He didn’t want to play a “stock” or “regular” beat but he couldn’t find a different one either.
I always loved James’s “aw jeez” chuckle as he goes “well, you can call it ‘regular’...” He’s visibly fighting the urge not to tell Lars he’s playing like shit.
He will be the next Danny Carey
Well best musicians don't tell eachother everything they're gonna do, but yeah progressive changes in their music doesn't fit their style, but the truth is you shouldn't stop even if one of your band mates messed up.
*the rest of the world
He was trying something different in the studio. Only difference is it was all filmed and made into a limited release documentary. The live stuff, a very different story
1:16 He’s either eating his boogies or he’s recycling the cocaine.
Cocaine ends up becoming boogers in your nose if left sitting in there and prolonged use, so both?
Underrated comment
The second option, bruv.
Joey Diaz "it's like going to the dentist for free"
why not both :D
Lars is living proof that you don't have to be good at the drums to get famous.
ok to be fair he was a bloody beast in the 80s and early 90s it’s just in the last 15 odd years where he’s started to deteriorate
@@tavishpuri3216 You're not supposed to "deteriorate" as a drummer. It's not a sport like basketball or football which pros have to retire from by 35. Lars should be in his prime at 40-50 if anything.
When you play in front of 40-50k people in a giant stadium, every note you play has to be perfect. Obviously the other members in the band have a high standard for their sound when clearly Lars doesn't. He sucks and just doesn't care.
@@tavishpuri3216 - even in the 80's & 90's NOBODY ever referred to Lars as a great drummer. Take a look at concert footage from that time. There's more than a couple of times you can find footage of exactly what you saw here. Lars getting lost, stopping the song, and starting up again
I Mean without him there is no Metallica (And no megadeth)
@@jim2lane search up lars ulrich drum solo, you’ll find some amazing stuff there. he definitely wasn’t the best, but there’s no denying he held up in those days. however, there’s also no denying that he’s a lot worse now
Give him some time, he’s still young and still have so many things to learn
Tru tru.
Lmao
Actually he is 57 years old
@@user-go3nd6mw4e you want an r/whoosh aren’t you?
@@rafiandraputra7538 no he is not want an r/woosh
Every band has a Lars but only one band has Lars.
Makes sense 😂🤣
even the beatles had "a lars" but they kicked him out.
metallica never got "their ringo".
Haahahahahahaja
I would say Zeppelin didn’t but john bonham died really early so i guess he would count
@@_KingofKingss Yeah but John Bonham is one of the best rock drummers. Lars on the other hand...
1st time: "Why don't you try getting a more SOLID beat?"
2nd time: Proceeds to play the same but with a crash.
Was this song ever recorded? I'd love to hear how shitty it turned out.
@@huffingfarts No. Because of this song, they had a fight and James left. He then entered rehab.
Hetfield must be an excellent father since he has been babysitting Lars for almost 40 years
Without Lars james wouldnt be where he is today. And you talk about babysitting
@@prodbykomrebi Lars is just a lucky guy who was in the right place at the right time. Just like Nick Mason.
@@roldirevan2130 james came to lars not the other way arround
Nick Mason is mileeeees better than Lars
@@roldirevan2130Lars composed songs and is a good business man. He literally made the enter sandman riff and guess what it's their best selling song.
0:41 Jesus that gave me an aneurysm. "Hey you know what'll go great with this straight forward guitar riff? A snare hit on the AND of 2, and nowhere else." How James, Kirk and Rob put up with his drumming is beyond me.
its actually on the And of 1 and 3
It's Lars' band. At least that's what he claims. Good luck Lars after firing everybody who can't keep up with you.
Looks like he's using the full capacity of his single brain cell too.
Lol “get called out” signature
The effort of making the sheet music is to be commended. 👏
My thoughts exactly
Except 0:23-0:34
the first one got me dead lmao
Lars is 58, Danny Carey is 60. Danny can still play every single song to (almost) perfection. Lars barely manages to play 4/4 patterns without blaming the band for messing him up.
Dear god that gives me anxiety. Danny's my favorite living drummer and I didn't realize he'd hit his 60s already, man's got the energy and physique of someone 20, 30 years his younger
Danny Carey is a powerhouse. He knows his kit like the back of his hand and he plays with all the confidence of a 6'6" Lakers fan.
Lars is a smart guy who created a whole universe with his music, I think he doesn't give a shit about people who don't like him.
Anyway, great composer, great manager, great musician, fuck the technique.
@@filipesouza7599 "great composer, great musician" - can he play though? No lmao
@@filipesouza7599 People like you are the reason we have "artists" like Bad Bunny and Peso Pluma on the main charts today... and Lars having that much money.
The fermata over “get called out” is the best part. I love the idea of an ensemble rehearsing this and trying to figure out just the right amount of time to spend berating the drummer.
Hi, I’m Lars Ulrich, welcome to Jackass.
Lol
1:03 rob turns around to watch the shitshow lmfao
he was thinking "ok, remember who pays you"
Rob must feel at least a little pissed going from the rock solid pocket on ST and Infectious Grooves to this lol
"Lars, wtf man."
It makes sense the new guy is confused because the rest of band is used to his shit on drums.
0:59 I can feel James's pain. He has had to put up with this for long time
It just doesn't make sense, they don't HAVE to put up with him, there are literally hundreds of thousands of drummers out there that could replace him, they could have fired him 30 years ago, they could fire him tomorrow and it wouldn't be the slightest issue
@@HarrowingShadowsHe's a founding member of the band. Lars _is_ Metallica as much as James and Kirk are - hell, more than Kirk, he was their replacement lead guitarist after Dave Mustaine got kicked out. Kicking out Lars would be kicking out part of Metallica's essence. They put up with his sloppy playing because he's their friend and fellow Metallica member. He is undeniably enthusiastic about Metallica even if he's much less enthusiastic about his musical performance.
Imagine being one of the highest paid drummers in history and literally also being outplayed by most 6th graders.
Not completely fair seeing as he helps write and arrange more than just the drums and also was pretty solid on the first 4 albums, Lars got lazy when they hit the big money, same as the rest of the band, they rested on there laurels big time after the black album
1:05 That fill sounds like firecrackers going off 🧨
What song is that?

@@oliverdahlberg838 it was indeed the frayed ends of sanity, thank you for not being a smartass like the previous guy
Not gonna lie, it was kinda funny when Rob looked at him
0:40 favorite Lars beat. That squint he makes kills me every time!
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO AGREES WITH ME
Yeah he's saying to himself "man this sounds shit"...
0:40 this has got to be the single most atrocious beat any drummer has played in history. Like you would be hard pressed to play a worse beat even if you were fucking around in the practice room. Maybe you could if you intentionally tried to make a worse beat. Maybe. The placement of the notes seem to be just about perfectly off in a way that triggers some primal, visceral reaction in your brain. It must be the same guttural evolutionary instinct that cavemen of opposing tribes were attuned to that made them recoil at the sound of their enemy tribe playing a drum fashioned out of slain mammoth skin, signaling a time of conflict. Its the antithesis to everything that goes into making a good beat. Think about the most perfect groove a person could lay down. Think about your reaction to it. The head bobbing, the feet tapping, the face stankin. Now take all of that and flip it on its head. The exact opposite of everything that was just described perfectly encapsulates this beat. As a drummer myself I can say with one hundred percent conviction that no other beat has evoked as much pure, unbridled hatred in me as much as this one has. It literally makes me want to blast my face off with a shotgun. Fuck this im going to go watch some clips of Nate Smith before I have a panic attack.
lmao
go off king
I think Lars' facial expression said it all :)
Why are Indians so weird on the Internet
hehehe haha
0:43 and onwards is so funny to me. Just the look of concentration on his face, for a beat that is so wrong. And then James roasting him lmao
I think Lars was trolling James
The "And justice for all fail" Lars in studio counted 6 intro bars, but in the 2010-2012 lives used to count 8 bars, and the other member totally forgot about this. So I think it's a band misunderstanding and not a Lars fail
Lars dosen't know what a bar is
@@giannifiorillo9000 bella Gianni
@@giannifiorillo9000 Lars has been and will continue to be the co-writer of just about every single Metallica song ever put out! He knows more about composition than you’ll ever know!

Fucking finally!!!! Thank you!!!!
I dont think he cares no more
He can’t
That's why he is a commercial musician. He isn't driven by the passion of his craft. Doesnt matter either way, Metallica is iconic
@@anshumaanpurohit6707 well fucking said too. Like Lars or not Metallica is still iconic and forever will be plus, can’t deny that they wrote some sick banger songs
0:25 always Lars being a genius and leaving the drums to make the guitars make a big build up
do u know what music is playing at this moment?
@@L0okfly…And Justice For All
I once edited raw concert footage from a Metallica performance (from Rock im Park festival). On the camera that was on Lars the entire time, I saw several instances where he very unintentionally hit the rim of his snare instead of, well, you know, the snare.
Its mind blowing to me how they've gone on this long still keeping Lars. There's so much material they leave out or slow down because Lars can't keep up. It's really sad.
I’m a better drummer then Lars, and I’m a guitarist.
he founded the band with james so they cant do much about it i guess
@@raccoonpeddler6730 that doesn’t matter, Joey jordison was a founding member of slipknot and he still got the boot, so too chris fehn
Point is the band were too gutless to boot him, maybe out of pity maybe out of something else, we will never know, we also will never know how much more big they would’ve been with a good drummer

Remember, it doesn't matter how good he is, he was the one with the money and drive to start the band. Can't really fire that.
Yep, I’ll give him that
Also arranged most of the songs. He was really good for about a 7-8 year period in the 80's and early 90's.
@@incognito9292 Yeah, I don't think Kirk ever practices. I remember James once saying in an interview about how it's hard to have that angst and energy every single performance after you've had success, made millions, and have wives and families and anything they could want.
He can be a writing partner/manager. He doesn't have to be the actual drummer in the band.
@@incognito9292 what about guitarists and drummers that are in their 50s and 60s but still great?,
You'd think that with all the millions he's made, he would have paid for some drum lessons by now.
Just get a new drummer already keep Lars around as a mascot or something he can dance In a corner just get him off the kit.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
"I won't be Bez."
Give him a mock drumset and put him in the corner, so he can pretend to be a part of the band
He is a great drummer multi millionaire while yall chumps sit at a screen all day smh yall ain't millionaire's
@@whalewinner6328 ha well he's a millionaire that much of what you've said is true the great drummer though lol if you say so.
It's weird. He's never just feeling the groove. Unique.
As someone who has been self-taught since I was probably six or seven years old, and have been playing ever since, this makes me feel 1000 times better lol
Lars is without a doubt one of the drummers of all time.
Good lord that Frayed Ends of Sanity fill was so atrocious
Nice pfp
What are prog-rock fans doing on a Lars Ulrich video? Oh... right... laughing at him 😂
@@reapervich4192 DAMN GOOD pfp you two
I've seen that live, it was my first Metallica concert, I laughed so hard
That wasn't a fill that was a fail
I think 0:22 it's what really shows what kind of drummer Lars is, he doesn't give a shit if everyone continues with the song, a good drummer would catch up with the rest of the band, not just walk away like nothing (especially knowing that ...And Justice For All it's a LONG ass song)
And he was able to do so, in Damage, Inc. live in Grugahalle he messed up and catched up with the others, now he just doesn't care
I mean… that could be so cool to just drop out, leave the guitars to go solo, then do a dramatic snare roll and punch back in.
The "COVID Self-Practice Test - Rinse" caught me offguard 😭
I think the people who separate the Lars the live performer from Lars the songwriter (and manager, etc) are correct. Metallica wouldn't be the same (much worse) without him, but he can't replicate it during a live performance.
Everyone with a little music knowledge can definitely say Lars is not a master of the instrument he plays.
And even that, he is the drummer of Metallica... :S
@@PabloSaavedra84 Yeah and Kirk is a lead player
@@PabloSaavedra84 they´re both on the same level
0:15 Doesn't seem that bad
0:26 Oh, fucking LOL!
0:12 Hetfield's face = 🤣
Credit where credit is due, he has a good performance once a decade. Unfortunately, the last was Glastonbury 2014 so we have at least another 3 years to go until the next one.
This is the year lets gooooo
At this point in their career it's like James and Rob hold it steady and just leave Lars and Kirk to do their own shit in their own time.
You actually hit the nail on the head.
Except kirk's own shit is actually talented
I had a nightmare the other day where Lars and Kirk were in Iron Maiden replacing Nicko McBrain and Dave Murray...
@@Trygvar13 holy fuck, do you need therapy after this nightmare?
Lol those dudes in the crowd, cheers for Lars! 😂
I actually can not believe they became famous like this with him... That's just unbelievable
35 years ago he made up for his lack of talent with energy. Now that that's all used up he has nothing to fall back on.
He was phenomenal in the eighties and early nineties, so the fame was deserved and justified. But after that he just started abusing his fame.
You would think after playing for 40 years you would at least be able to play your own songs well.
The absence of a technical foundation and the ability to listen and respond cannot be hidden: I remember watching Some Kind of Monster and thinking "do any of them even know what they're doing?" The fact that Cliff was their musical conscience is thus laid bare.
Wow. Lars really is an inspiration to keep practicing hahaha.
people always ask, "why does lars get so much crap, I don't get it, why all the hate?" The answer is right here. He is very inconsistent for someone who has made a 30+ year career out of playing the drums on stage. Most people, having played the same songs for their entire life, would be good at them by now.
You laugh at Lars he laughs at your Bank Account
we can do the same with every musician.
It's still not criticism in good faith I think. He's sadly just a punching bag. That's why I would never want to be in this community.
@@Fungiarts the problem with Lars is that he himself doesn't come in good faith given his attitude. Never ever have I seen footage of Lars and thought, what a great friendly guy! He seems to overrate himself vastly, can't hold criticism (I mean from his own bandmates, not anonymous keyboard warriors), and generally behaves like an enormous egotripping d*bag. There seems to be no humility in this guy (if there is, he does a very good job at hiding it). So yeah, I kind of get why he gets so much flack on the internet. His bankaccount is certainly filled, but that's more due to the songwriting and performance of the group than his own talents on the drumkit.
@@santibanks I am mostly referring to a musician's skills anyways mostly. Like he is overhated when it comes to his drumming skills. That's what I personally think and I will not fight anyone who disagrees with me cause there's just other things to worry about. I mean I saw the documentary some kind of monster and I definitely saw that he can be problematic but that's really for me just the person. I tend to separate the person with the art mostly. I hope I made myself clear with that one.
@0:46 Lars going through his Slim Shady phase
Before his shaggy phase of course.
More like Drum Shiddy
Lars was a beast on the drums in the early years
Kill em all maybe but the rest of his parts are aggressively mid
His snare sixtuplets on "Until it Sleeps" are almost trolling people. We have to hear it and realize he's one of the most famous drummers on Earth.
'Sixtuplets' means nothing musically.
@vapeymcvape5000 lol that's true notes are dumb
0:38 is kind of unfair, you could tell he was trying to come up with a more interesting feel for the riff than the usual 2 and 4, which could've been cool... but then got roasted for it and stopped lol
I’ve totally been there as a drummer! I feel him
He's always done weird things like that in songs. Theres probably lots of times when working on new stuff where he's tried something different and hasn't worked out, there just happened to be a camera there that time
@@ryanford5387 For sure. People roast him for not doing anything interesting, and then roast him for trying something different 🤦♀️
@@heavyhowl6365 yeah it makes no sense. Besides, he does some interesting stuff that's more subtle, like starting fills in weird places and hitting the crash on beat 2 rather than beat 1. There's an interesting video by the ArtOfGuitar where he picks apart some of the stuff going on with the drums after the solo in Blackened. Its a little while since I watched it but from what I remember I think he shifted the drum beat forward an 8th note I think and then plays a fill on the way into the verse and is back how most drummers would play it. It's subtle but pretty clever and unique imo.
Nah he just couldn't do/hear it any other way, that's why he plays it exactly the same way after James requests a more solid beat. Same goes for much or maybe even all the other unusual stuff he played on their records.
Something tells me Lars was the only guy with drums they knew, then they showed him what to play for the first couple albums.
He was the one with the money he is metallica
1:05 Rob was like “what the fuck is he doing?”
0:20 was actually James' fault. He came in with the riff too early.
Cheers to you for having some sense in a crowd of know-nothings just desperate to trash a guy doing something they don't have the slightest idea about.
Yes sir, you are correct. I didn't listen to the guitars at the time to accurately judge who was at fault.
All I know is the timing of that song is similar to possum kingdom and it can get confusing if you aren't extremely focused on every note.
@@PerfectSense77 Yeah but a competent drummer can adjust the beat to keep the song going instead of just derailing the whole thing.
James definitely came in too early but Lars definitely could have handles it better
@@PerfectSense77 Calm your fkn' head down a little, pal. 🤣 Ok, James came in too soon... but, I mean... the video lasts 1:21 mins.
And this one's short, tho.
The guy looks pretty talented, maybe he should be a band manager
Finally! I can't wait to learn this and show my drummer friend that I learnd the most crazy lars ulrich drum fills in history! (my favorite part is the "get called out")
Lars is the only drummer I've seen get worse with time
clearly You haven't see lars now😂
You can take that sentence in both ways
He's definitely a good confidence booster...
"We have to start it again?!" This shit made me lol so hard!
Since no one is saying it, I will ... And Justice for All wasn't Lars' fault. James started early.
1:01 the look of knowing you are stuck with this guy.
Lars is no question 100% definitely......one of the drummers in the world
Listening to any version of and justice for all now a’days is infuriating.
Man it's so wild I used to look up to this guy...he really just fluked his way to fame.
1:05 this one was actually cool
It’s crazy how I never noticed how basic Lars was (I’m a drummer but pretty mediocre). Then I read somewhere about how “bad” Lars is and now I can’t stop noticing the same basic fills and beats. He got very far for how good he is.
That 2nd one (...and Justice for All) isn't actually his fault, if you listen to the drum pattern before, it is the guitars that come in in the wrong place
0:43
Rare footage of Lars playing a ride cymbal
Lol
The thing is, you can see in behind the scenes footage when it comes to composing and arranging songs, he knows his stuff and I could imagine him being a good producer. But when it comes to the drums, I used to idolize him and only when I started to learn how to play the drums myself that I realized that he isn't all that. Mean you can hear the hints of the crazy in their earlier stuff but the rest of the band was great at covering it up or making it work.
But his crazy has just increased since then. The rest of the band is still top-notch(James vocals are kinda iffy but I remember hearing that he almost fucked up his voice singing in a wrong way so excuse valid) but his drumming is more crazy and the songs aren't made for it. Not sure if it is because he has forgotten how the song goes(which we have seen several times he has) and just winging it or doesn't give a shit and since he has been open about not practicing then not giving a shit is also a reason.
One of my favorite drummers is Hellhammer, he is 52 years old, only 6 years younger then Lars and yet Hellhammer practice 2 hours every day and he doesn't miss a beat. That's dedication and actually giving a shit.
Lars sucks as a producer too, he’s the one who made AJFA the shitshow it is
How about Butch Vig, who is BOTH.
Amazing! I've always wanted this sheet music! Thanks!
0:20 is a little unfair imo. The rest of the band came in a bar too soon I think cuz Lars went to continue playing around the toms, but was put off and stopped when the others same back in. I still think he should have tried to carry on as normal though, would have been more professional than stopping altogether
1. We don't have the context of the full intro
2. If you're right about the rest of the band coming in early, a professional drummer who has been playing for DECADES should definitely be able to handle such a minor hiccup better than stopping the whole song and walking away from the drumkit
@@Christopher-md7tf yeah, if you watch the full recording of the song, the rest of the band comes in a measure early and throw him off. still, could’ve recovered pretty easily imo
@@vadidithy yeah he absolutely should have at least tried to carry on. It's not a song they play very often so I guess that made it a little more difficult
What Is the name of the Song? Please
@@felipedejesusizquierdovida1747 the song is And Justice for All
Lars has really let his drumming decline ever since, probably 1989, which I'd say was his peak year.
Now, with And Justice For All, it's actually the band that messed up, but Lars could have easily, easily corrected the mistake.
The intro riff they're playing has two measures, 8/8 and then 6/8, or 14/8 for the entire riff. The band jumps in on the 9th beat instead of the first beat. So James, Kirk, and Rob, are all coming in 8 beats too late, and on a 14/8 song, this means they'd play 2 beats past the drums, throwing everything off.
Lars picked up on that and stopped drumming, since the band came in at the wrong point in the measure.
Now, his easy, easy, correction, would be to invert the 8/8 and 6/8, by playing two 6/8s back to back. This would line his drums up with the band, and almost everyone in the audience wouldn't notice. I'm a drummer myself, and I've had PLENTY of fellow musicians jump in at the wrong part of a song. If they don't seem aware of their mistake, you just switch the drums up to bring them in line with the band. But that mistake isn't Lars, it's the rest of the band.
He became a post-rock drummer
Post-drummer 😂
My man's been playing jazz all along
He's just chanelling his inner Jeremy Clarkson
He really has improved over the years! God bless him, he's doing his best 🤣
The last clip just sums Lars as a man, musician, human, perfectly.
thanks a lot. i needed those tabs
“Covid Self-practice Test” LOL 😂.
Thanks, I was looking all over the internet for the staff notation, and finally found it now!
James asking "We have to start again??" gets me every fucking time
These are all times Lars forgot to top up his Demon juice.
0:44 I think this is the moment when Lars and his ride cymbal began their falling out.
James: Not quite my tempo.
1:03 I actually liked that
The AJFA clip isn’t completely lars’ fault. They came in at the wrong time. However, lars made no attempt to recover and just gave up so that’s on him.
Also why is it tabbed in 7/4 and 4/4.
It makes more sense as 6/4 - 4/4 - 4/4 repeat
Every drummer, including all of the greats, has done things like Lars during live performances or in the studio. We're all human, we make mistakes. I'm not a fan of Lars's sound or choice of grooves most of the time, but he's good. People just like to make fun of him because they're so butthurt about the whole Napster thing.
@@michaelflorczyk1394 what Napster thing?
@@jacobpotts7954 It's one of the reasons why so many people hate Lars, look it up. It's in the St. Anger documentary and pretty much all over CZcams. He sued Napster
Second one (0:20-0:23) was actually James' fail, because he has started to play AJFA too early on the guitar
Good catch
@@alexiluffy216 I know, there are another Compilations on CZcams including this thing
If anything, it makes Hetfield all the more amazing to be able to keep such incredible rhythms in spite of Lars doing everything to throw him off track!
Plot twist Lars isn't a bad drummer he was just trying to get James to screw up this whole time
@@mrassassinscreedfan1 As a drummer, intentionally bad drumming sounds like the most infuriating thing in the world to try to do. I couldn't imagine having the dedication of doing that consistently.
I like to imagine that the reason Metallica are a heavy metal band is to reflect their feelings about Lars' drumming.
