Metallica - The Shortest Straw (Drums Only)

[@gsxerwhite]

That's the face Lars gives me when he sees all the music I've downloaded for free right off of youtube.

[@ej22_gc86]

gsxerwhite or Napster

[@popwarner1526]

concerts is how the entertainment industry makes their money these days. my first concert was in 1979. Judas Priest. 5.75 for a ticket. they made their money from recording back in them days

[@37Sith]

No it's the face he gave to Jason when he asked why no one can hear his bass.... 😆

[@gsxerwhite]

@Name Name in his gold plated jacuzzi 😄

[@H.E.M.]

I’m fucking dying

[@mattwatts33]

This was the original complete mix Lars wanted for And Justice For All

[@monkeymonkerson]

This is the best! lol

[@multiestonian]

This..this is why i love this crazy old fucker. AJFA was an amazing album and Lars truly outdid himself.

[@ShortFingeredShreder]

That little burst at 2:24 is awesome.

[@unhandmeprrriest4601]

Lars being that up close makes me uncomfortable

[@nielsenvega5713]

🤣

[@salamipastrami69]

I'm unsure as to why, but this is my favorite drum track of any Metallica song.

[@andrejrmusic]

Mine too it's so fun to play

[@kevinfitzpatrick95]

It's super bouncy and catches you off guard a lot and the drum sound is phenomenal; great feel and some odd timing and accents, and quirky fills.

[@joopmink9216]

Salami Pastrami harvester of sorrow

[@ben1ben]

I love Disposable Heroes the most

[@aaronrus]

I always love the 'swing ' of the drums on this song, and listening to the raw drum track, it's apparent even more. Lars was very creative back in the day.

[@christianrosado6673]

Shallex found you again shallex

[@TheManwithafan]

DAT LARS

[@mericardayilmaz]

White TAMA!!! old days...

[@wtcstudios3504]

on justice he used his silver tama kit

[@norwaydude6]

He actually used a white rockstar kit with chrome hardware and one black tom.

[@LightningJackFlash]

Wtc Studios On "Justice" he used some "frankenstein" kit for recording, as usual. On Justice tour he had a grey or gun smoke coloured kit with black back skins on toms. Silver kit was used by him in their "Load" era.

[@Powwower]

Mats Hovden well he changed it when they made justice and he stuck with it until st anger

[@fabiovisca8529]

Questo pezzo è un capolavoro che si trova nell album capolavoro dei TALLICA... , il DRUMMING È ottimo a dir poco. .. And justice for all"

[@robbiepeterh]

This has the bass on it too 😉

[@bobsurface908]

LollllL!!!!

[@balls2balls]

If I drummed half of this I would be covered in sweat and in need of an ambulance

[@13Drumsticks]

haha his since when are you playing?

[@ferraya2894]

This song is not that hard.

[@balls2balls]

Fer Raya maybe I am shitty drummer

[@MetallicAGirl14]

Rex Man if I did less than half I would be killed

[@uturkaos]

Not the hardest of songs but then again it depends on how much extra time one has

[@saidoterodiseno]

Nice to see Lars on 1080p :)

[@bjjbrawler1]

These isolated tracks are the best thing ever. As a drummer, I love them. And anyone that says Lars is a poor drummer, check out Blackened isolated, or others. Good stuff.

[@russkate88]

Back in the eighties he actually knew how to use a China effectively. It actually gives the song more punch in the way that it's being executed here.

[@parizivalclips]

I don't know this Lars guy very well but I think you guys are giving him so much shit on his drumming. This is FUCKING AWESOME! #wanna

[@luukeksifrozenhillbillyeur3407]

Most of the shit talk about his drumming is because of how he hasn't given a wet fart about practicing for like 20 years.

[@IWANTABIGBUTTGAL]

Best album.

[@nicopillay4059]

Lars looking into your soul asking "What bass track?"

[@robisaacm]

beutiful eyes Lars

[@cjsmadness]

i can hear the pixels (its very low quality)

[@BeroeZara1916]

Starts off like a beach samba pop dance song hahah / Still it is a GREAT tune, love that power

[@jeremyzenkar8996]

Best China ride sound ever.

[@Y4vuz12]

@Shallex yes he does

[@Y4vuz12]

@Shallex 2:27

[@Y4vuz12]

@Shallex whatever dude the op obviously meant he likes the china sound

[@fakename8896]

Love how he does his cymbals That was cool to listen to, thank ya!

[@sergiovelasquez5138]

Play this in 1.5x speed and is a Slayer song.

[@vig6254]

Or Dyers Eve

[@tryste_mx]

because Slayer learned everything they know from Metallica 😆

[@matthewkramer8324]

That China cymbal.... It sounds like a crow. kaw kaw

[@thirteenthandy]

Always thought the same! Love that crow action!

[@ThrashRoC]

What a Damm F--cking great Sound and Drummer ..., Lars Ulrich is not so bad like much ppl. say I mean ok there are guys like Brann Dailor (Holy Shit ..) , but Lars´Playing is total Effective and Thrilling

[@Shantal585]

im a guitarist but sometimes i feel like im a lost drummer

[@mariovomhof2775]

Good job, Sral.

[@brown_town_]

is there not a more HQ version?

[@seedyv1]

needs more highs on the kick (never thought I'd say that)

[@EBEFanclub1]

no, then it does not fit to the mix

[@shapes2000]

Engineered by Mike Clink as well as Harvester. Lars hated recording the drums on Justice, he said they literally punched in every bar.

[@Nissardpertugiu]

But he still nailed it live in 1990-1996 isn't it ?

[@GuitarFreak881]

And people say Lars is a bad drummer...hhahahahaha

[@nirvhannahgarden]

I was watching a couple of live songs that are pretty recent (we're talking last week and also last summer) and honestly, I don't know what the haters are talking about. The man's still very much got it.

[@nkmcfrln]

Piece of shit nerds say Lars is a bad drummer.

[@Pliskin2894]

I feel the same way. He's actually a pretty proficient drummer. Never understood the people shitting on his "lack of skills".

[@jksvana]

Samuel Fogle because he fucking sucks.

[@davefoster8845]

@@jksvana He sucks. Whatever you say. But he is in Metallica. So he don't care!

[@awayoflife7292]

Anyone else lars looks like Michael keaton?

[@rafaellago172]

Oh crap, now I can't unsee it.

[@user-hd8nt6cb8b]

Lars vorewer, God of drums

[@thisiskevin92795]

"I'm a really fast learner trust me"

[@Rodrigo-bv7uv]

Awesome!

[@ma-metal6505]

wow cool

[@zachvegoe2202]

Does anyone know what China was used on this album?? I always read that it's a 20 inch Z custom China but I listened to one and it sounds nothing like it. I feel like it's a China boy or an a custom but I'm not sure

[@mlumpkin13]

Zach Vegoe 17" Zildjian China Boy Low is what I read somewhere.

[@nembience1]

Zildjian 19" K custom China. Sounds amaaaaazing.

[@Anonymous-pm7bv]

Super old but for this matter does anyone know what cymbals lars used at all? Anywhere near this era studio or live? Besides Z hats

[@ChrisGraingerDrums]

Likely a 19” K China Boy

[@kelcig69]

Quality !

[@franciscodrummer]

Nice !

[@MetallicAGirl14]

That lars face be like 😠

[@AyedYoutube]

this album just proves that Lars had potential to become actual good drummer, but he chooses what happens to his life, move on people!

[@jaidon544]

Shallex HES shit today I will give u that but he was a fucking machine back in the days from 1983 to 1996. Think about it lol u comparing to how he is today to most drummers today. He’s old as well. Not every drummer can play good forever it’s life and reailty. It’s called logic look it up boi-,-

[@jaidon544]

Shallex so basically U saying “he doesn’t practice enough”FOR FUCKs SAKE HE HAS KIDS AND A WIFE AND FAMLIY!😂 it’s called reailty dude eventually all of the metallica memebers are gonna choose when to stop touring and shit

[@jaidon544]

Shallex plus all drummers make mistakes. All musicians make mistakes. It’s tottally normal it’s not causing world war 3 but u guys are acting like it is bruh

[@jaidon544]

Shallex I mean yeah that’s all pretty true thing is I did say he’s shit today but I said BACK then he was a monster and he is a inspiration to lots of musicans. He’s not the best drummer in the world but he’s definitely a inspiration

[@johnp82]

@Shallex how can you say Lars hasn't practiced? Playing live is practice.

[@oldmatevb]

Why that picture 🤤🤤

[@evanaskew6652]

The man can drum. But I wouldn't let him near a Red hot chilli peppers or faith no more song.

[@Millionair95]

anyone ever feel like the mixing of this song felt sorta odd compared to the rest of the album? not saying its bad, the sound of the drums and guitars is just a little different on this track

[@Inferno-MT4]

James hooked it up to his Strategy 400 head instead of the IIC++, so it sounds a little different. Personally, I like it more.

[@christianrosado6673]

Inferno-MT4 just wondering but how did you know that? Lol did you read it somewhere from a interview or something?

[@Doutrinaculos]

which software is used to highlight the vocals, drums etc ...?

[@XepiphonerockerX]

i also want to know that but no one is answering my questions on youtube :(

[@Alexis368]

Metallica Guitar Hero tracks.

[@kristoffermikkelsen5571]

It´s the original master tracks, they are ripped from guitar hero.XepiphonerockerX

[@ilikethrash1]

Lars lost his skills when he started losing his long hair

[@bitflux2]

lol true, drumme sanson

[@OAO_Bingle]

Tony Thrash his hair held magical powers

[@thirteenthandy]

*when he stopped practicing

[@notmozart8866]

Lars is Samson confirmed

[@H.E.M.]

Lars was awesome during s&m So Lars lost his skill when stopped doing drugs

[@briangoodman1779]

Is this Atari 2600 sound effects?

[@tommyjohansson211]

Lars best drum track ever! 🤘🤘🤘

[@-SpiderBrown-]

Im watching this on tv, Lars shining made me fail on Nofap

[@nirvhannahgarden]

Look at those pretty hazel eyes 😍😍

[@Ryan_Thompson_Guitarist]

Never let Lars choose his own drum sound, otherwise you get this

[@russkate88]

It sounds fine to me.

[@seryi9447]

that's not 1234

[@dudleypunch101]

speed this up and you the dyers drum track

[@uome20bukz]

dudleypunch101 not really

[@dudleypunch101]

uome20bukz obviously not exactly

[@alexjohnston485]

Nop

[@tpose_dreamer]

👁👄👁

[@Koeni_Nick13]

The day guitar hero broke lars

[@Sooeww]

Sloppy fills could have been way more technical. Right bass sounds more prominent than left. They clearly kept Lars for his music writing ability, not his ability to play.

[@absinthefandubs9130]

That's kind of the point of a band.

[@allenbass6169]

I agree. They should have went after the drummer from the Ray Orbison band.

[@ramiroperales5934]

This was late 80s you do not appreciate the content for what is is was then. That’s the fucking beauty of being alive when this album came out

[@russkate88]

Everything sounds perfect here so I don't know what you've been smoking. Just because he doesn't do the same generic fills that Slayer does, doesn't mean they're sloppy.

[@anmcclo9731]

g p wait for me g p stories, there waiting, g p break lakes, seems, ever lasting, one; up of another story casting, break early on all your lates, listening, for times, of what; they call palm up 5

[@anmcclo9731]

I, like your pausing drum play

[@doc2earth]

some over dubs

[@dermic]

Amazing drummer nothing is catchy have no idea what he is doing

[@popwarner1526]

I bet Lars Ulrich has way more fun today with a real Bass player. Robert Trujillo flat out Rips

[@Fourthirteen82]

Obvious troll comment

[@eduardozepol2000]

Yeah Trujillo's great but Jason wasn't bad at all and Cliff was probably better than Rob, at least in the writing department

[@memeking3896]

Easy drumming So simple

[@ilikethekeyofE]

Nail biting stories let’s see what you got.

[@Kupyank]

😂😂😂 show us

[@alcalu]

Uh-oh! Another keyboard warrior comment! "Tactical keyboard warrior has been activated! I am a veteran of the United States keyboard warrior special forces. I served for four years in the KZbin comment section and I have 234 confirmed argument wins under my belt. I use facts from Wikipedia as well as a fake account with a fake name and profile picture! If I think you’re wrong, I will provide zero evidence whatsoever to substantiate my claim and when I’m called out, I will not respond until you call me out for not responding, at which point I will reply, ‘Sorry, I actually have a life,’ adding to my perfect 234-win streak." ~Jeremy Vince Show us whatcha got, Meme King!

[@alfonso4740]

is funny how a lot of non proffesional drummers that dont live of it critize the simpleness of a proffesional that has live of it for more than 40 years, the best drummer for a band is not the complexest drummer

[@doraanaisnin5199]

Still better than Lars
