scott So the student is NEVER better then the teacher? Really? You sure about that? I can think of a thousand cases where the student surpassed the teacher and this is one of them
Skyclaw very true But Dave did write his own parts I don’t think there is a 1 most talented person in the band Like with Paul slayer isn’t what it was So it’s clear that Kerry and Jeff work better with Dave playing
+Jørn Syversen I always hated watching emotionless drummers. They looked as if they were the shit. Dave is one of the only who express themselves with sticks.
Isis Cruz Really? I've listened to Convent and a little bit of Gateway to Annihilation and some other songs, but I haven't seen any of their live stuff yet. Pete's a beast!
+Gamer 90' I'd say you're right. when I play I love jamming. I'm in my own world. I love playong live and the venues and I love it when people enjoy and like something I created. I like sharing what I play on drums. Just thought I'd share my thoughts.

The eternal influence. Dave Lombardo makes the best guitarists want to learn to play drums.
@@SawyerBoster He was taught double bass by Gene Hoglan, or at least was given tips on double bass technique :) Not saying this to diminish him in any way.
How the hell does a 50 year old drummer blow most metal drummers in their 20’s off the fucking stage?! Dunno how, but it proves Dave is the best metal drummer ever, he gotta post more videos.
It's about knowing every millisecond of the drum tracks you've created, having played them hundreds of times onstage and getting your muscle memory down to a point where you just don't even think. You can see here that Dave is taking care of every single stroke, every single note carries full meaning. The other commenter mentioned Lars - I'm not a Lars hater, but he plays his own drum tracks as if he's a cover band drummer. He'd do well to just keep it simple and go back to playing what is on the records, rather than making some of the outlandish improvs that he does on the slower songs.
Its because you millennials have no flight time and think you can do it all better than the ones with the experience and effort they put in for years and years to become amazing, and still dare to learn new things. This (me) Gen X-er is putting in a lot of time to make up for the time lost before and after 2.5 years back behind the kit, i still feel i have 10 more to go before i can call my self anywhere near ok. That is how Dave and all the other famous boomer drummers think and a lot of them will blow most good millennial drummers away! Stop being arrogant and start working on you flight schedule.
These guys survived times when other bands were choked out of existence. I think they're one of the best metal bands ever, and think they should be inducted into the Hall of Fame if they haven't already been.
Been into metal since age 7. Now 47. Mr Lombardo is, without a doubt - NO doubt, the most skillfull, honest, colourfull metaldrummer of all time. NOONE comes up to his standards. He is the ultimate drummer. I've seen him live, shared stages in europe, listen to he's work thru the years. he IS the best.
Naw man, Slayer lives on brother - even if Dave and Jeff aren't on the stage, they live in our hearts and the dudes they have to fill in do just as good - I respect the fact that they are still around and playing, in memory of Jeff and Dave continues to creep back into the lineup - they just need to pay him what he's worth, but the spirit of SLAYER shall always remain regardless of who's playing the tunes - it's a mutual respect from the band and the fans
I've seen so many amazing metal drummers, so many with varying levels of technicality, groove and creativity that I love and it's hard to pick a favorite. Mario Duplantier Joey Jordison Gene Hoglan Sean Reinert Chris Adler Nick Menza Vinnie Paul Mike Smith Dave Culross But I have never seen ANYONE play with such FEROCITY and PASSION as this man right here. Dave Lombardo.
As a huge fan, True That!. And I might add this video shows that Dave 's kit is begging for mercy which makes it appear just like you said "It's like he's literally murdering those drums". More than just "Like" he's doing it. What You see is exactly what it is. He Earns the much deserved credit for his skills that many drummers would only experience in a dream. He is the #1 reason to love Slayer. He does everything he does with conviction. and would rather do what He loves when it comes to making the drums is bitch and laugh at the concept of apology All of these reasons make up exactly why Dave Lombardo IS "The Ultimate Drum Murdering Bastard" we all love today.
Dave is one of the most talented, coolest and down to Earth guys I have ever been fortunate enough to meet in my life. He has such a great attitude and is so humble with no ego whatsoever! He is a legend and will always be my favorite drummer. You rule Dave!
@@kaiserwilhelmii1827 cause tons of celebrities are arrogant assholes so when you meet one who is down to earth it's refreshing and makes it very easy to like them.
true, but I have a lot of respect for Paul...saw In an interview where he said that he plays Dave's songs Dave's way out of respect for the fans and for Dave. I've seen them both...he does a damn good job of it
as a drummer, and as a fan of dave lombardo's since about 1986-ish....these close up videos of him playing are the best fuckin clips i have EVER seen of lombardo playing. if your a drummer, it captures his style so intimately, the fact that these are not 'PROSHOT' only adds to the intimacy. Its 30 some years later and I still find Dave Lombardo very inspiring. After watching these clips its makes me want to get behind my kit right now.
Мне 52 года , в 15 лет я услышал slayer и до сих пор он в моей голове. Ломбардо меня покорил своей игрой, я мечтал быть ударником … И это все было в СССР , когда такие группы были запрещены у нас. Но сила таких как Slayer, Metallica, AC/DC находили дорогу в наши души и остались там навсегда! Всем мира и добра!
I can't get enough of this video. The sound is just amazing. There should be an entire concert of just Lombardo cam. I would kill for a drum cam of Unit 731.
one of the Best things of Dave is that he always play all songs in a different way, he hits everything differently but in the precise time. always dynamic! Still reign!
i love dave as a drummer. he has aged like the fine wine. i don't care if he is the fastest or the best. it's his style that most people like. and what stamina.
6 years since video was posted and I still watch it at least twice a week. Dave really showed the depths of his skill here. The drumming might seem simple to some, espcecially if you listen to a younger generation of drummers, but the touches and fills especially with the cymbals are unmatched even today. His playing is deceptively complex and the not many drummers can maintain the tempo during fills and then dial it up and down while matching the pace of the song. He might have slowed over the years and perhaps not progressed Ala Gene Hoglan but he remains one of the finest drummers and of the few whose influence will extend beyond the genre
I think he preserved his unique style, the power, speed and intensity all over the years without a bit of downstepping. Even today, if you watch the Metal Allegiance 2020 Slayer medley he did, his power is still here. It is evident he didn't play Slayer songs for a long time now, but he is in very good shape. A true living legend and a monstrous drummer standing high on the throne of the fathers of extreme metal drumming.
As a Cuban myself I approve your comment ... You can't imagine the amount of good percussionists there are in that island ... Check Horacio El negro aka El pulpo cuban percussionist
This is insane man....This man is a machine... This man is a robot... no way he is a human being... The God of Drums... the best drummer of all time... absolutely...
At first when i found about Slayer, i thought that he could only play heavy metal. But Dave can literally play anything, and play it well. I love Dave Lombardo!
I’m just telling you I’ve been playing over 30 plus years can play rush dream theater of course all the other metal one lamb of god and so fourth but this guys style is so unique I just can’t do it I’ve watched this video a thousand times in awwww of what he can do truly amazing and definitely the best metal drummer ever in my book !
I had to learn die by the sword off show no mercy coming out of break down going into guitar solo Dave comes in on the and beat and to nail it perfect was so hard I was always late or early so frustrating I love everything about this dude their guitar sound with daves Tamas is perfect sound
Blimey I got exhausted just watching this. One of my favourite Slayer songs is Postmortem and the drumming on this is epic. This is watching a master at work. Virtuoso level skills.
I have played guitar most of my life.... but whenever I hear Lombardo with Slayer his beats and grooves are absolutely a War Call. The guy is arguably the most influential heavy metal drummer of his generation but also for me the best drummer to ever play in the Metal genre.
he doesnt have the single one qualification that it takes to play in Slayer. and that is the solo double bass part in Angel Of Death. He cant play it live.
He is the best because of his sheer talent and attitude, even if he was getting ripped off, he did it for the fucking LOVE of music - so much respect for this man.
Bostaph is a top-five thrash drummer... but no one plays like Lombardo. Feels his way through the song and rides out of those insane fills into perfect rhythms. So insane.
Another great performance. He is a natural talent, you can truly see that he has an innate sense of rhytm. I love when at 5.45 he says pam, pam, pam while hitting the drums. He could play his part and interact with those behind or at his side, without missing a hit.
I was at this show. Absolutely incredible. Dave is my favorite metal drummer hands down. So much groove and feel for a guy playing in a band like Slayer.
