Metallica - Kill/Ride Medley - Uniondale - USA - 1997

[@drumtum81]

Love the crunchiness of everything during this era

[@KadeKalka]

What are you talking about, Lars is amazing, the double bass, the speed, the volume, that's what you want in a drummer!! Don't just say Lars sucks because every troll on the internet said so.

[@tomzadvydas1758]

His drumming style is very simple but it works with James’ riffs extremely well

[@venomad77]

I bought my Metallica hockey jersey at this concert! I also had that same long sleeve shirt. I bought it from the fan club site.

[@defhardman527]

I love Lars in 5:36 to 5:42. I miss this fill in Hit The Lights. :/.

[@muriloninja]

Fuckin-A! \m/

[@kaiserwilhelmii1827]

Those drums sound fucking massive!

[@guitarplayer6262]

There’s something about Hetfield with that hot rod V and matching shirt that just feels so right

[@shred9475]

He had drip

[@iamradical]

Haha Lars has the best “drumming face” ever. It’s like an excited kid eating an ice cream cone in anger.

[@jonathanpesek842]

I love how much energy James brings , wish he would do that today

[@tomzadvydas1758]

jonathan pesek this was over 20 years ago now

ride the lightning sounds Amazing in 1997,

[@rolandogarciamartinez1396]

Back to 1984 and 1983

[@doomcrue87]

Back then they were using Mesa/Boogie exclusively. M/B always kicks maximum ass!

[@federicoalmazabal8079]

Jason le vendió su dulce y maldita alma a metálica y a todos nosotros ..por siempre Jason graciasssss totales🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘💪💪💪💪💪💪💪🤘🤘🤘

[@-KomeTeN-]

That crowd Holy Shit !

[@renemies78]

I love how James pushes the unsuspecting security guard at 3:18 ! hahaha.

[@josephkelly9514]

I don't know what all you guys are complaining about. I saw the death magnetic tour and it was loud as shit. Lars can still play as loud and fierce as he did.

[@reinerbergkamen7852]

Lars sounds good here

[@ogulcanyolcu8714]

3:08 Look at Jason under there lol. He was the band itself

[@thomasackerly7732]

Was at this show saw them 3x on this tour

[@coloursmoke]

Brilliant! so much energy! lml

[@lordbellis514]

FUCK ME lars was crazy on ride the lightning \m/

[@doomcrue87]

His playing has gotten better since, the Nimes show is a good example. Now only if he would still hit this hard.

[@LovelyDrums]

That's the fucking Lars Ulrich I Love ♡

[@Vmt16]

Oh man those guitars sound GOOD. Why don't they sound like this anymore?

[@cornerpubsports2958]

They still use a very similar setup

[@Maghanashi]

@@cornerpubsports2958 It's all emulated effects now. No more Mesa.

[@xBorisAntasx]

@@cornerpubsports2958 they used mesa, now they use Fractal Axe-FX I believe

The LOAD Tour ruled.

[@Phant0mGetsuga993]

God damn, that crowd is fucking ALIVE!!!

[@tomzadvydas1758]

New York always brings it at Metallica shows

[@HeartlessNobody1314]

i think the reason he can't hit as hard anymore is that he has had shoulder problems for years. plus he is old

[@u.s.m.c.fewproudthemarines2987]

Lars be 60 this year 2023

[@TheHeavy666Metal]

I miss jason

[@brentcarr8365]

Back when people gave them shit for the load album the crowds immediate response for the old shit is phenomenal!!

[@muriloninja]

So where is the full concert?

[@radianceXstar]

Please, upload full concert :)

[@noblej05]

Where's the full show? All I see is Kill/Ride, Sandman, and Fade To Black

[@jaredklock8754]

they look so much younger

[@lapinus]

Tbh the haircuts made them look older

[@shred9475]

maybe just maybe because it is 25 years ago

[@thomasshelby1774]

Lars is pounding the shit out of those drums on ride the lightning

[@radianceXstar]

Did you have more videos from this show?

[@metlica12]

The last show with Jason was Lexington 2000, but his very last performance with them was in 2001.

[@darianbegay7871]

Love Lars Ulrich head bang

[@dbdanny]

The guitars sounds better, but they are playing slower so I guess it's a fare trade all things considered

[@RodHammett95]

The bass drums sound HUGE

[@ecatalan98]

Ah, the 90's Metallica: when Jaymz was rude to the audience and they were "ashamed" of playing their classic old stuff from "Kill" and "Ride". This medley just does a disservice to the songs that it includes. This is only worth anything because Jaymz still had a voice, the guitars had that unmistakable crunch and Lars still could play the drums with unbridled ferocity.

[@drumtum81]

Ernesto Catalan james wasnt really rude to the crowd, he just had way more attitude than now

[@shred9475]

i think james thought kill/ride was too extreme for tla normie mainstream audience who started followimg mwtallica after the black album not really ashamed lol.

[@philipposkasotis8658]

@@shred9475 Fair argument, however, I think they just like to jam and play around with things as they warm up and in jam rooms. So they figured they just want to play around with those songs. A band gets tired of playing the same songs anyway, however, sometimes in contacts I believe they are obligated to play certain songs, or they just love doing it.

[@philipposkasotis8658]

@@shred9475 If you ever listened to a band called Destroyer 666, see a live video of the song I am the Wargod, seeing everyone in the crowd yell I am the Wargod must be a rush like no other, or seeing everyone yell Die in the middle of Creeping Death, it must be incredible

[@dbdanny]

I never said they "sold out" I said the result of their new direction were simpler,dumber and less creative songs

[@nickp8497]

Which show was the last one with Jason?

[@russianbear6384]

Wasn't until 2000

[@jorgesanchez2724]

why Jason always use t-shirts Xxxlll??

[@razorrazorov9309]

Cuz oversized was in trend back in '97.

[@drumtum81]

Jorge Sanchez those were the only ones he could get for free lol

[@shred9475]

because he was very skinny

[@muriloninja]

Is this where I tell you how many times I have seen them live over the last 25yrs? Metallica are a live band, always have been but their guitars have been bad for some time. This latest Through the Never show was different, they stepped it up and sounded much much better.

[@muriloninja]

Listen to the drums, listen to the guitars....fuuuuu! How they can sound soo bad today baffles me?

[@zambra666zambra]

Que buen medley

[@PRMetalliPaco]

Where the Fuck's Kirk? XD

[@MrJimbo666]

Lars "cocaine" Ulrich

[@smarkmalark]

I love almost all of this but I fuckin hate how during this period they perposefully played Four horsemen as slow as fuckin possible. Like why? It sounds horrible at this speed

[@rileylaforge7640]

Go to a live show, they sound BETTER than this.. minus the vocals. It's just the videos they post are sound board audio.

[@robertseay8191]

"We're playing for us not you." Well then don't you get too excited I'm spending my money for me not Metallica. What a thing to say man

[@sticksman7819]

He's only getting the crowd going and in a way he has a point,they chose the setlist they want to play.

[@mitchand9]

cant hear any sound at all

[@ReL0aDTTryKZz]

[@RodHammett95]

Triaxis sound...

[@dbdanny]

The Load era sucked because most songs on Load and Reload are lifeless generic Hard Rock/Heavy Metal to try and repeat the Black Album's massive success by taking it one step further...didn't exactly work. Give the first 5 albums a good listen and tell me sincerely that the Lyrics, the Solos, The Drumming and the complexity of the songs weren't way better and way more creative

[@cornerpubsports2958]

Honestly, yes they were shorter, but some of those songs during this era are actually more technical to play on the guitar than some of the earlier stuff.

[@shred9475]

their first 5 albums are METALLICA

[@LuisTorres-bc9jx]

Lars fue el mejor batería.......

[@UnluckySwine]

it was in 2003 i think

[@Lomasgrandedeljevinacional]

Are you dumb or something like that?

[@fatino1234]

omg Lars so bad. But at least he hits hard :)
