Lars Ulrich is the Ringo Starr of metal. Change my mind. He's simple , solid, and does exactly what is needed for the song. Maybe not the most technical, but he gets the job done and give the feeling to the song that needs to be there.

Ringo is untouchable!

Lars may not be the most fastest or complicated drummer out there, but his simplicity is his strength, and is what Metallica great in their unique way.

Orvil

@Nate Jackson Yes. Because single stroke double bass with no regard for keeping time is very difficult and not the first thing every new metal drummer sits there and does and because they want to be fast!

@Peter Never played, have you? There is absolutely nothing complicated about either of those songs. The only thing they would require is that you stay in time, lol, which Lars has never been able to do.

Peter

@Orvil You cannot play songs like "Fight Fire With Fire" and "Motorbreath" at a good enough consistency to function as a drummer during an actual show if you "suck" at drums. You do NOT learn those types of songs when you are a beginner at drums.

In his prime he was great. During the St Anger period, not only Lars went in the gutter, the entire band did. Nowadays he’s better than during that time. Hardwired to self destruct is a good example of Lars getting that skill back. Another thing that should be taken into consideration is his age, Lars is getting old and playing the drums has worn his body out. He tore his shoulder bad and had to get a fill in to play live during Worldwired tour. I agree he’s out of practice but I also hold the belief that he is over hated and his contribution to music is not taken into thought.

@x8nis relistend to the record and you're right, the drumming is great on that record.

I've always loved this solo , Lars was actually the man with speed that most drummers didn't have back when i was a kid and first started drumming. my idols back then were John bonham, cozy Powell, Ian paice. But Metallica got me into faster raw music. Lars double bass playing was unheard of. him and the band themselves inspired many new musicians. Reading all this hate towards him is funny. A solo doesn't have to be complex as long as you put a good show. most drummers anyways put most of their creativity into the music and not solos, though a few put extreme creativity to everything they play. Lars is a really good drummer. I've been drumming for 8 years BTW.

I was putting your number in the kind of scene that Metallica started, a time when thrash metal was very underground.

@Carlo Nassar I meant with the same fame or status , if you mean around the world prob 70% of drummers perform better the guy can't perform his own songs live

I would not say that there were no other drummers doing what he Was doing back then(there were many better than him on the same musical scene) but he Was the spearhead that helped to popularize faster and more aggressive drumming in heavy music. And he wrote many awesomd drum parts for sure

There's a lot of morons here. Obviously he ain't Neal Pearl, but he was solid here. Lars was great between 1985 and 2000. There's plenty of live show footage to support this. For those complaing about his stamina in this video, you do realize Metallica plays 2 - 2.5 hour shows right and they were on a long-ass tour during this time. On top of that, they were heavy drinkers every night. And so were Pantera :)

What I don't get is, he's been playing drums for 40+ years (or 15-20 years at that time), and he hasn't even bothered to learn double stroke rolls, even though it only takes a couple of days to learn and is an incredibly useful rudimentary ever after. Granted, it takes much longer to really master the technique, but you can still do some pretty cool stuff with just that basic knowledge.

If you don't know what a double stroke roll is, it's when you bounce your stick to achieve more speed and create a sustained frequency or 'tone' on the drums. right-right-left-left-right-right-left-left.

If you listen at 1:44 for example, he tries to achive that effect with single strokes (right-left-right-left), but he's barely able to maintain it since you can't keep up the speed and precision that way. Therefore he pretty much abandons the idea and goes for something else right away.

something to say!!!

Totally agree... people jumped onto speed because speed can be learned easily (same as guitar), but to play with emotion, feel, etc. you don't need to be particularly fast. Thus there are a lot of speed based musicians which have very little substance to their work. Just speed.

At 8:40 James proves he's pretty much as talented as Lars. As a kid I looked up to Lars & remember learning this solo (it was part of the "Box Set" Metallica sold). I was not a great drummer by any means & only played for a couple of years but it was my mission to play this. It only took a few weeks to learn. A friend played drums in the Jazz band at school. One day he came over to my house & I showed him this solo. He proceeded to (basically) replicate it on the spot! That fucking blew my mind!
