Lombardo !

[@elvissorna8861]

Paul is a true artist in every sense. That primal approach to his creativity in drumming is such a rarity to find. He's of the same league as Paul Strickland from Vio-lence and Donald Tardy of Obituary. Greatest pioneers of their craft.

The Music Vault ... I do. But I typically pay respect where its due. I cant stand Lars haters, and although i find nothing "special" about Bostaph, he has persevered in his career. More power to him.

[@momomono795]

@@michaelreynolds3592 SORRY I beg to differ when it comes to Las. he is a below mediocre drummer . he was good in "And justice for all" and just ok in the black album and load after that he is just below mediocre. Also watch him live in the last 20 years and you will know how bad he is And I am a drummer btw. Metallica would have sounded a real better drummer . If you compare him to all the drummers in metal from his time and now he would go down to the bottom of the list.

[@michaelreynolds3592]

@@momomono795 ... I believe even Lars would agree with you. I believe he said "these guys play in a completely different zip code than I can". But, I am not a huge fan of Metallica or Lars. But it seems to me, that while I am a far better drummer than he is, and have played my heart out everytime, he is still making big money, selling out arenas... (yes its the whole band), and I'm defending him barely making a living. You have to give a legacy the respect it's due. Or you will never respect the bassist you play behind.

[@PeterVenkman_666]

Respect to Paul. The only one to replace the legend...

[@Vorgaloth]

Peter Begman As a drummer of 20 years who has been attending Slayer shows since 95; I've seen Dave, Paul and John perform live on many occasions --and not just with Slayer. Dave outperforms Paul in regards to timing, fluidity, dynamics, creativity, stage charisma, power and double bass. It's night and day. Paul was pretty good in the early days but never the level of Dave. There's a shitload of footage to compare them. It's not even close. John Dette also bests Paul. I saw him with Slayer in 96 at The Whiskey in LA. And though they were about even on the hands, John's double bass blew Paul out of the water.

[@PeterVenkman_666]

Vorgaloth I saw Paul and Dave live and both are outstanding , haven't seen them so many times so you're probably right.

[@tingtut6663]

Vorgalot, as a drummer of 35 years, listening to Slayer since '86, attending to Slayer shows since 90; bla bla bla… - and btw, seen Bostaph since '88 performing with Forbidden… even more blablabla..

[@KingDevilCharger]

@@tingtut6663 Don't be jealous cupcake. Us drummers are in a class of our own. Just because you can't walk and chew gum at the same time, doesn't mean you have to cry, it's ok.

[@KingDevilCharger]

@@Vorgaloth You are absolutely right. I've seen both Dave and Paul live, it's literally night and day. Dave is far superior to Paul. Paul's abilities eroded tremendously since Diablous. Not sure how he got through the recording of GHUA. Dave to this day is still a beast behind the kit, you can find footage everywhere. Dette ran circles around Paul as well, Slayer should have kept him instead of bring Paul back in 1997.

@@Gabrielabelman25 their both beast, no need to compare ghem, im with you on that.

[@Gabrielabelman25]

@@iantouzel638 I think Lombardo does in fact do a better job on the double bass in certain songs. For the record, perhaps take a look at that crazy fast part of Angle Of Death, and you'll see what I mean... But What Paul lacks in that style of Lombardo's doubles, he makes up with his hands. In general Paul makes the bass (or the double bass) sound much more technically complex, making dave seem monotonous and simple-fashiones. For Whatever one of them lacks, the other makes up with his very own original excellence. So that's actually my streched comparison.

[@gram440a]

During the verses: Does he play the hats in unison with the snare on 2 and 4? Or does he play 8ths on the hats and 2 and 4 on the snare? Here it kind of looks like the former, I always assumed it was the latter, but it's hard to tell. Does anyone REALLY know for sure?

[@notasilicaanimus]

He plays 8ths, but in some weird kind of 'double stroke' motion that isn't strictly in time. You can see it in any video of him playing a skank beat. IMO, Paul's inability to play straight 8ths is his biggest weakness, especially in comparison to Lombardo.

[@gram440a]

Interesting, I'd like to know more about this 'double stroke' motion he uses, even it's not the ideal@@notasilicaanimus

[@notasilicaanimus]

@@gram440a kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGmciZaLbrONqqM

[@notasilicaanimus]

@@gram440a there's nothing wrong with it as such, it's just why it looks as if he's only playing quarter notes. The problem is that (IMO) the two notes aren't evenly spaced, which is why his skank beat always sounds a bit janky (again, IMO).

You guys are trippin. Paul is a machine. If anything he plays to clean. He is a drum machine. Dave plays with more groove and live it sounds better.

[@adammammana367]

axisT6 you know what your right i thought i noticed that during the War at the War field dvd. Lombardo’s fast double bass is way more consistent. I play drums just as a hobby and i cant that fast double bass thing down. Its hard. But i agree with you on Paul’s fast double bass work. Maybe its distorted by those sub kicks he’s got on the kicks. Lol.

[@misqotekran1700]

He is a machine while recording in studio. Very good ideas, very good hands technique, but his legs remind me Lars' legs. #disaster

[@adammammana367]

[@patientmental875]

Slayer peaked at Divine Intervention which is their best album musically, it went downhill from there!

[@tingtut6663]

- Slayer have never sounded better than on Repentless. - it will be the best of their 10th or so legendary albums..

[@patientmental875]

Soren Tingtut: Your trippin or delusional, Repentless is easily their absolute worst! The album was made quick & without effort just to tour on, simple as that!

[@luisramos619]

IMO Divine Intervention was not even close to Seasons in the Abyss. It was downhill after Seasons. Divine isn't that memorable except for dittohead and killing fields and they rarely play anything live from this album. I pretty much yawn through Divine and prefer Diabolus over it if I had to listen to one of the two. Disciple from God Hates Us All is right up there with anything they ever wrote, and I enjoy that track as much as RIB or Angel of Death so I wouldn't say it was completely downhill either but for the most part they hit their peak in 1990.

[@patientmental875]

Iramos982: I said musically, if you play an instrument play both Seasons & Divine & tell me which you prefer

[@luisramos619]

PatientMental I think the production is crisp and it has amazing drumming and some interesting riffs,,,however the quality of the song writing except for Killing Fields and Dittohead are pretty much filler tracks and not of the same quality that put Slayer on the map. I don't know about you, but having to listen through the track divine intervention or 213 is as boring as elevator music to me. I will say this though, the RIB / Killing fields intro from touring this album in 1994 / 1995 is probably my fav opening tracks they ever opened their shows with.

[@fatdrummer65]

Slayers dead, Dave's leaving the band no one can replace him. Wait there's this dude out there named Paul and he is Fucking shit up. Holly shit start to finish Devine intervention is the Greatest Slayer album period. Nothing against Dave

[@Rob-ys6ot]

That off beat 6/8 at 1:17 is simply unplayable for mere mortals.

[@brunomartinssantos4947]

6/8? Thats just 4/4. The only 6/8 is on the transition from the chorus to the bridge, where he's on full double bass

[@meshugganaut]

It's not often an original can get replaced, but Paul surpassed that bar by miles. He plays everything note for note, beat for beat. His attack is more aggressive and packs a punch. All respect to, Dave, but Bostaph suited this band better.

[@misqotekran1700]

[@michaelteale2683]

Killer

[@babdeli5189]

A lot of peaple are whining that Bostaph and Lars are suck. Here is my massage for these ones: Beating the double pedal as fast as you can dont makes you a good drummer. Nor yet a good musician. Bostaph and Lars are musicians. They are composing their drum themes. They are masteres of their instruments. That is why they are really cool. And drummers like Lombardo are only a machine gun I appraciate the technical skills but that is not music for me. And as for me I never liked too much his drum themes. The slayer was best with Bostaph. Respect!

[@blppt]

Lars can't keep a steady tempo which is one of the absolute most basic, important things you need to do in a rock band. That's why he's a mediocre to poor drummer. Great ideas and songwriting, but he just can't do it consistently live. The only thing Paul doesn't do is consistent, even 16th note barrages on the double bass at high speeds anymore. Everything else he does is light years beyond Lars' ability.

[@babdeli5189]

@@blppt what kind of albums you were listening to?

[@blppt]

@@babdeli5189 Studio performances mean nothing. Justice was, for example, a cut and paste mess of performances because Lars often couldn't play all the way through. That being said, the infamous off-time Master of Puppets "21/32" section is because Lars is either late or far ahead on a fill.

Who am I to criticize? It's an awesome performance. But, I remembered a Ramones documentary where Marky said he never liked to play the hi hat at the same pace as the snare or the kick drum. And that's what I here. Even Lars Ulrich at his peak always went faster with the hi hat.
