He is the drummer that make a guitarist wants to learn drum
That’s what joey jordison did to me
@@holeesheeetgonzalez thas what dave grohl did for me
He, Vinnie Paul, and Delta Empire all make me (a guitarist) want to learn to drum.
Yup
Too
4 best drummers in the world:
1) Dave's left leg
2) Dave's right leg
3) Dave's left hand
4) Dave's right hand
😎😂👍
Fucking accurate dude
I'll buy that for a dollar!!!
1. NEIL PEART
100. NEIL PEART
1.000.000 NEIL PEART
1.000.000.000.000 dave lombardo
Elsden F.A. Yeah,,, sure... Pert was awesome don’t get me wrong at all but go watch the “yo watch the beat” quarantine jams with Charlie from anthrax on drums. They do like 4 rush covers and Charlie from anthrax barely breaks a sweat and would make Neil proud. Really good metal drummers are a different animal, not to take away from Neil, but I’m 200% positive They do stuff Neil would have at least had a hard time with,for a few minutes anyway.
You forgot about the time he played with Metallica the song Battery and he played so good they couldn't keep up with him..
And four horsemen
people not being able to keep up with you doesn't make you a good drummer lol it just means the people you're playing with arent proficient.
@@nycyabber7103 generally speaking, you are right. But in this case, while they are mostly proficient, they were simply used to Ulrich's inconstant tempo.
@@nycyabber7103 They are used to Lars fucking up so they naturally adjust live but having a drummer who knows what the fuck they are doing is something they arent used to.
If he would perform dyers eve with them live in one of those high quality videos i will die a happy man
I don’t think he ever stopped being the greatest drummer on earth.
Same here
Your all fucked in the head,,,,,, got it

Alex bent is 99999 times better
@@muneshxge dave lombardo pathetic overrated ;)
Man the drumming in south of heaven is really underrated. Some of his best work
South of Heaven keeps me coming back because it's just the grooviest of the early Slayer albums
The change up 1:50 into Ghosts of War is just bone chillingly brilliant
It's on a mystical, spiritual level. No doubt about it.
I agree, his best work
just realized that myself. and I am not really a drum fan. Couldn't believe TA saying that he's just a guy they did a few shows together
yes that was his best work i think anyway those drum rolls in live undead were so fast also ghost of war.
Dave Lombardo together with Mike Patton. The universe has aligned perfectly.
i had a ticket to see fantomas open for tool in september of 2001, but after september 11, my ride didn't want to go anymore and i couldn't find anyone else to go with.
The fact he can play the breakdown of Angel of Death with a smile on his face... I can’t comprehend his physical fitness and endurance
fastest feet in the west
Faster than Anthrax Gung Ho
Dave Lombardo
The absolute best thrash metal drummer of all time
And no matter what anyone says slayer are never ever better without him
In YOUR opinion..though. Paul Bostaph is pretty fucking good himself, and no he is not a Lombardo clone, he is there to play what Lombardo composed on the drums while he was in Slayer, along with what he created. He has been doing it ALMOST as long as Dave has.
@@trendmassacre8423 that's how you see it your opinion matters to you not to everyone
Paul is great but Dave is better
there are a few others at that level...Gene Hoglan for one
@@enginemaster01 Paul is Paul but Dave is Dave
My favorite drummer ever....the speed, aggression, the groove.... He is absolutely incredible
and he s good whith suicidal!
I agree
It's such a shame that Lombardo's name doesn't come up a lot more often in the pantheon of great drummers.
His passion is like Buddy Rich's, he's totally entwined with his tool. That is where he finds life eternal. And that is all he wants. Like everything else is icing on the cake.
Thinking Art Entertainment unless you’re a drummer lol
No, it comes
Really ? He's not that underrated...
Those who now bands form before the 90's often mention Lombardo and Hoglan (rightfully so).
It's just the fans of the big metal festivals and modern metal genres (djent, core, hyped prog etc.) who only know of Thomas Haake, Mike Portnoy, Mario Duplantier, Joey Jordison, Danny Carey, Chris Adler, The Rev, Brann Dailor.. and George Kollias and Blake Richardson if they consider themselves "cvlt" or in-the-know with the underground scene.
His drumming on south of heaven is one of the best in music history
in history? then he is epic, iconic, legendary, of all time, best everrrrr too?
I was just saying this the other day. My brother and I got into it. We’re both drummers (must have been tons of fun for Mom and Dad) and were talking about his best album with them. We both agreed that Seasons is our favorite Slayer album, but his work on South of Heaven is fucking insane. Silent Scream alone is probably the most brutal drumming I have ever heard. Anyway, much respect for this man. Truly one of the greats.
Dude just has amazing feel and groove. Looks effortless and fun to him. There's nobody quite like him.
Speaking of effortless, have you seen the footage of him playing with ST? War Inside My Head. His speed and precision are jaw dropping. And he just makes it look so damn easy.
@@alexbaum2204 Saw him with ST in 87 BEST SHOW EVER
John Bonham was. A shame he died. He could have been a good rival bor Lombardo
He's awesome. Mario Duplantier reminds me of Dave a lot.
Slayers not the same without him.
Agree. Paul Bostaph is a good drummer to reemplace Lombardo
Pual Bostaph is a beast.
ya, they should tour as "Slayer revival", so irelevant nowadays
Agreed, but Paul Bostaph is good in filling in his place
Agree with guys in thread, but, damn, those blasts can't be replaced
great drummer. incredible stamina.
incredible stamina=thousands of hours practice
Dave Lombardo is a kickass drummer. He’s awesome. Other than that, cool:).
No metal drummer has the combination of speed, technical ability, creativity, distinct style, and most importantly feel and groove that Dave has.
Godfather of Double Bass Drumming
What about Philthy Animal Taylor?
Nah, that title goes to Gene Hoglan
Gene Hoglan taught him how to play Double Bass.
Carmine Appice is the real godfather of Double Bass Drumming. He was killing it in Vanilla Fudge and Cactus. First heavy drummer.
not to talk about someone like ian paice or barriemore barlow... used to double bass like decades before -.-
This Man's double bass velocity impacted numerous drummers worldwide!!
Who, exactly? Boustaff is faster
@@jackinthebox1817 Dave is one of the first person to include fast double kicks in songs
Lombardo is a fantastic drummer. Always plays with a lot of intensity and passion. One of my biggest influences when I started playing the drums.
I agree, he is the best. Being a drummer yourself, do you agree with most people who say Lars sucks?
@@metalgod2642 Honestly, I wouldn't say he down right sucks. But yeah he is definitely not as good as he once was. Lars still inspired a lot of drummers back in the day, so still an important drummer.
Saw him playing with Testament a few nights ago. He was an absolute freaking beast.
dave lombardo wrote the history of thrash metal. the record ''south of heaven'' was revolution in thrash drumming. absolutely unique, great sound great timing great drum parts. it happened ones and never ever again.
This guy always had the best fills - he does other things well, too, don't get me wrong, but the one thing I've never heard anyone do right (no matter how good a drummer they are) is his fills & rolls.
His style has a very unique & deft touch that probably came from his samba & jazz background.
I agree, his fills make him my favourite drummer. I often wonder why no others play anything remotely like it
@@Trollyulian I can't over-state the importance of having jazz as part of a formative musical education, it's had a huge impact on the people who get it as kids. If it had been classical instead of jazz his fills would be like Hellhammer's. lol
Maybe a gross oversimplification but still a valid assessment.
His fills are like dark poetry.
he starts so many of his fills on the upbeat, definitely the Latin influence coming in
@@ApathyBMwhich definitely energizes every measure that has a fill by preceding it with a half or quarter measure build-up _to_ the fill. Such a unique style, I'm glad this comment is getting likes 2 years later.
Aside from his style -- which of course plays a part in why it sounds so good -- I always thought Lombardo always had the best sound of any drummer I've ever heard. The sound of his drums on the South of Heaven album is the pinnacle of drum tone.
I feel the same way.
100 percent. I could listen to Dave’s snare rolls all day
i agree. live undead is my favorite slayer song, mostly because of dave's drumming, specifically his fills.
Fantomas is an underrated supergroup. The best singer of all time working with the best drummer of all time.
agreed. glad to see they got some fantomas in there.
4:35, love that tease, he's like "y'all know it's coming"
Truly the pinnacle of metal drumming in my opinion.
2:37 me anytime I join a friends party on PlayStation
more like xbox 360
Drumming on "Seasons in the Abyss" is the best in Thrash Metal of all times🙌🏻
My shins and ankles hurt just watching him. By far the absolute best of the "big 4" drummers.
Gar Samuelson says hi from beyond the grave....
Rob Davies gtfoh not even close buddy, are you deaf ?
I like Nick Menza but he's dead, so it's 100% Dave
Lars entered the chat
@@SchiesterMalG I'm joking man
2:27 had me dying of laughter for a whole minute
Haha! Fantomas is Lombardo's most creative work 😉
Why?
Who the fuck is Mike Patton?
Pejman Ebrahimyan singer with the highest octave range ever, known for bands like faith no more, mr bungle...
Now that was goddamn awful and disturbing
I'm a drummer and man... his drumming gives me the chills.
I was really hoping for live parts of Criminally Insane(love the intro) and Seasons In the Abyss.
Listen close to the drums during eyes of the insane. It's so good.
No Dave
No Jeff
No Slayer
Sad but true
PrzemEzio - What a load of shite, you’re clearly a soft core part timer. Slayer are alive, well, and eternal in all of their line ups.
@@TheSonicDeviant idk man, Paul bostaph really brings them down, he plays so sloppily.
@@TheSonicDeviant , we were there in their best years and you were clearly not.
That’s Metallica, silly
Tom araya is slayer.
The guy’s amazing. Plain and simple. I think some of Dave’s finest work is on war ensemble, especially in one particular drum fill he does in that song. And you guys know exactly what drum fill I’m talking about
9 yr olds in the black ops 2 lobbies be like: 2:28
XDXDXDD
Idk what the hell is wrong with that guy? What the hell was he trying to prove?
His work on South Of Heaven is incredible. Doesn't get much better than that.
86-90 unbeatable
Testament the gathering
Damn he’s drumming in JEANS!!!??! Dave is definitely a great drummer if he can do that shit in jeans.
He's obviously powered by heat from the ungodly amount of friction his drumming in Jean's creates.
Had his phone in left front pocket too!
@@richardolson5880 that phone probably burned up from the sheer intensity of his playing.
that's nothing ,try double kick drumming in 18 hole dms like hellhammer does in mayhem, and he makes it seem a lot less work, and they are a similar age!!
I play in jeans all the time, but I don't kick like DL. If I play in cargo pants the stitching in the pocket on the thigh will chafe the knuckles on my left hand from the hand riding over it to cover the snare drum. I don't play in shorts at all because the insides of my knees end up grinding on the snare drum hardware.
As a musician i can say that this guy Is a game changer in the drums.
DAVE LOMBARDO IS THE BEST THRASH METAL DRUMMER.PERIOD.
Such a poet on drums.
Most artistic/talented member in slayer.
Dave Lombardo is my favorite Drummer of All Time 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Agree
who needs blast beats when there's drummers like Dave.
Bro WTF was that LOL 😂 2:27
PrimitiveAK Fantômas, one of Mike Patton’s 8 million side projects. I went to one of those shows and some drugged up freak in the front row kept yelling out “This is the new jazz, maaaannn!” after every piece. Considering that every tune was only about thirty seconds long, I unfortunately left with that mantra etched in my brain for life. 😭. To be fair, the entire free jazz genre sounds just like that, so, I guess he wasn’t off base with his ball tripping proclamation.
One of the best/greatest drummers to have ever lived, but he's my favorite!
Godfather of the double bass, Best metal drummer of all time IMO, LEGEND!!!
He's really one of a kind.
Dave is the proper guy that can provide the perfect treatment of that Ride Cymbal! My god!
The dude's stamina is what gets me all the time. He expends more energy playing one Slayer song than alot of bands do in an entire show.
This man deserves a reward og some kind.. what a Legend
"Was the Best Drummer on Earth"
is the best drummer on earth if you ask me!!
quick shout out to hate worldwide, a song which i find extremely underrated!!
dead cross and fantômas are such good bands it’s nice to know my favorite singer and drummer are performing together
Indeed
2:04 is "Page 14" from the first Fantomas album Amenaza Al Mundo. no improvisation :D
One of my favorite guys to try and keep up with when I practice, guy's a beast!
Some of his best work was during his time in Grip Inc. The sheer speed of "Hostage to Heaven" or the power grooves in "Myth or Man" would be great additions.
This video could just be all 10 tracks from Reign In Blood. What a drummer. Best ever for me \m/
Dave was a massive influence on me.. high respect..
One of the most versatile drummers in the history of music. Slayer, Dead Cross, Fantomas, Suicidal Tendencies, Philm... Incredible!
And testament
I remember the first time I heard this dude. I was like, "There's no friggen way". I was thinking that they slowed the tape down while he recorded and then played it back at normal speed while they mixed it down. Because there is no way a person can play that fast and that explosive for that length of time.
Then I went to my first Slayer show in a little bar or something down in Houston. And I realized just how friggen wrong I was. Even today he's fast as hell. I'd be willing to bet that if he air drummed without a kit in front of him, you could probably hear his arms buzz. Like some huge fly buzzing around. But nope. It's Dave. Playing air drums. Buzzing like a herd of houseflies.
he is the best drummer to ever live. i don't care what genre you listen to, you must appreciate Dave Lombardo for his talent. no one else even comes close, he can do all the off beats and beats and still hit his marks. I've never seen anypne like him.
What an amazing drummer, thank you so much. This video also reminds of how much I need a new Fantomas album.
Tom, Kerry, Jeff and Dave, that is Slayer. Best Thrash Metal band of All Time.
He's a straight powerhouse type of drummer.
Love his drum sound and his recordings sound just like his live sound - impressive
Daves the first metal drummer seen with Slayer live in concert back in the day! Still headbanging daily to his drum beats!
Basically every drum cam featuring Lombardo is a moment he's the best on Earth
There is no substitute for Dave lombardo.....the man!!! Figure it out Tom and Kerry.
There is ......his name is Paul Bostaph and he's better than Lombardo any day.
@@leopardcubpupkryky6940 wrong🖕
@@KCKIDD94 LOL, poor baby.
@@leopardcubpupkryky6940 Paul is good, awesome actually. But he will never surpass Dave Lombardo.. Both are badass live though
@@KCKIDD94 LOL, spoken like a golfer. Paul surpassed Dave years ago, not only in time being in slayer, but his resume casts a huge shadow over Dave.......who plays for what band now? .......o yeah, Suicidal Tendencies LOL
Mestre Dave, feliz 2020 para você.
I live in Asheville, NC and work in a music shop called Skinny Beats. Dave came into the shop and played bunch of gongs and djembe. We talked about music, and it was awesome. He was in town with Testament, and hooked me up with backstage passes. I got to go backstage and meet the guys from Testament (Chuck, Alex, Steve Digiorgio, Dave Lombardo). It was one of the coolest days ever.
Dave Lombardo is the best drummer of all time!!!!!!!
But far my favorite drummer of all time. It is criminally insane what Slayer did to him.
Criminally Insane
Double Bass Drumming Existed before Dave But HE Took It To The Highest Level and Educated So Many Of Us and The New Drummers in the Heavy Metal world. That's What It's Really All About. He Has Been A Teacher For Many of Us. A Super Amazing Talent for Sure! He Is My personal Favorite Metal Drummer. It's Effortless and That's BC He Mastered His Craft of Heavy Drumming. Bostaph and Dette Are Monsters as well. Love Dave!
Incredible talent & groove and a wonderful humble man .
Slayers loss Suicidal's gain. Best of the best Dave Lombardo.
Dave Lombardo, Adrian Erlandsson and Mike Portnoy are among THE MOST FUN to watch drummers.
Vinnie Colaiuta.... check him out
I got to clean his drum set in the late 80s while on tour with Motorhead / Overkill. I was working security, checking out his kit when a roadie walked up with rags to clean it. I asked if I could clean it and he said NO problem and handed me the rags lmao. It was an absolute honor. I briefly talked to him back stage. He was the most mellow dude ever, super nice guy just hanging out with his girl. The way Slayer did him rubs me wrong to this day.
Man there’s so much you could sample. Dude is a god. The drumming on Seasons of the Abyss (song…and I mean, album as well FWIW) is legendary.
I would like to see one of these for Pete Sandoval
or jon allen , hoglan, tony laureno, jon longstreth.
Charlie Benante from Anthrax is very good too. But you always can recognize Lombardo style of playing. Amazing and unique at the same time.
2:30 when you die in minecraft
Dave was one of my earliest favorites. . And still is
Wrong. Dave Lombardo IS the best drummer on earth
Desert Fox Ginger Baker without a doubt
Frost 🔥
Dave is so good but not the best...
hellhammer
Dave brings passion... he is an example to all drummers ! !! R.E.S.P.E.C.T
The best drummer in Heavy Metal.!
One of....
My favorite drummer since discovering SLAYER over 30 years ago!!!
The video wasn't started and I had a thumbs up on it already
Grip Inc. are so underrated
Bug Juice ftw
My favourite drummer. Obviously, the best drummer. Period.
I'm not sure about best drummer in the world as a statement for any drummer. To many different styles as a whole. So many bloody great drummers out there and he's one of them.
My favourite drummer of all time!!
I’d add the song “Seasons in the Abyss”. Dave owns that song - amazing stuff
My inspiration to want to play double bass
Dave Lombardo IS the Best Drummer on Earth.
He's got soul, something modern wood choppers sadly lack.
Lol
I honestly can’t even express how juicy the fills in seasons in the abyss are.
Dave Lombardo is a drumming God and made crazy double bass drumming cool. The godfather of double bass. No one better
Nile Drummer is the best double bass by far.
Dave Lombardo IS the best drummer on Earth
Not while Danny Carey walks the Earth
manesh fernandez lool no dude
Not while Portnoy Peart Mangini Minneman and Lopez are here
Maybe if Bonham, Peirt, Hoglan, Bostaph, Carry.....among many others, were never born.
And how exactly are you going to determine who is best in drumming?...if it was a contest of course... which it's not.
A Dave Lombardo compilation without a single Grip Inc extract, which feature by far some of his best performances? Shame.
Hostage to Heaven!!!!
I've seen Slayer a few times over the years, they are. Just explosive 🤘
Gracias y saludos cordiales desde Mallorca para vosotros louwire
Hard to believe somebody in Slayer didn't want to pay him for his service!
Slayer found a better drummer.
@@leopardcubpupkryky6940 Really? Dont think so, no Drummer has so much Groove while he plays fast. Drums must be Groove and not sounds like a computer, thats the point. Alot of Drummers are great in technics maybe more than dave, but they dont groove on Speed like him, no one.
Leopard Cup Pup Kryky lol no.. Dave was the best slayer had. Certainly better than paul
finding another drummer doesn't dispute the fact that he was robbed. I'm bothered by that fact "bigli"
Please do of Nick Menza as a tribute.
Happy Birthday Dave Lombardo
Bloody incredible.
The most powerful drummer in the known universe
