"if metallica were a body, lars would be the asshole."

-NoLeafClover54


okay dude...even though i'm a huge metallica fan...thats one of the funniest **** things i've ever heard...props to you on that

it wasnt that funny, rather gay, who did you copy that off no leaf clover? and xtreme, you need to get out more, people have been saying that pathectic little line for years.

lars is a *** hole when he is not playing the drums, but he is a cool drummer though :)

that kind of stuff^ has been posted like 10,000 times.


metallica concert next tuesday the 24th.

Lars is the least talented at what he does in Metallica...if that makes sense. I heard Enter Sandman at Download with Joey from Slipknot on drums, and it just made the song sound so much better.

In new bands its rare that you can find a metallica worthy guitar solo.
And i dont like it wen ppl dont give them a chance, eg; listen to one of their not so good songs like "i dissapear" and think all of their songs are the same.

[quote]I don't understand why people slate Lars off so much. He's a lot better than a lot of drummers. Look at any famous band (e.g. The Strokes, The Darkness, The Offspring, etc) and Lars is much better than their drummers. I'm not saying he is the best in the world because there are drummers better than Ulrich but he does not suck.[/quote]

Quoted for the truth.

hey can anyone post the intro to "Blackened" backwards. i hear it sounds better and i'm curious to hear it

go and look the for the intro on MX tabs and play it backwards

its not that hard though,







i ment the song lol

[QUOTE]hey can anyone post the intro to "Blackened" backwards. i hear it sounds better and i'm curious to hear it[/QUOTE]

its not better in my opinion...but its jsut a bit different so it seems kinda cool

Lars is a decent drummer. Metallica is not Metallica without Lars, and surely they would sound different without him. I think though people have to realize that he is not the best, nor even close to that. But he is partly responsible for argubly the most successful metal band ever, he had to have done something right. so please if you wanna flame him, flame him because he is an asshole.

^^^^^true
the thing is without lars, we wouldnt have such good lyrics. Mostly because he and James write almost all of the songs. He does have talent, i wont deny that, but i just dont like a lot of the things he does.

oh and The Bell Tolls i didnt know people have been saying that line for years, and im sorry if i offended you in anyway

[QUOTE=Paranoidd]Comparing shyt to shyt just takes you around in circles.

Sure he's better than the guy from the strokes...he uses a freaking 5 piece kit.

You are comparing Metallica to poppy bands. Would you compare the guitar player from the strokes to hetfield? Hell no. Compare Lars to a METAL drummer.

Almost every metal drummer > Lars

But I can't say that because:

"metallica is the best band in the world"
"can you play better than lars?"
"metallica is responsible for metal"
"lars is teh best!!!!"

[B]Or the various other uneducated rebuttals that the 15 year old fanboys supply[/B].[/QUOTE]

haha yeah i agree on that...
Metallica isnt the best...but ONE of the best in Heavy Metal.
they are actually the 1st band...which inspires me in metal
lars as well, inspires me...everything from metallica inspires me...
without lars, theres no good lyrics & no good drum combination.
he's not the best...but ONE of the best. he didnt get best metal drummer of the year for nothing.
try replacing Lars with somebody else...i dont think metallica will be metallica anymore.

everyone has the right to voice out their comments...
but i just dont like it when anyone disses Lars...
im not trying to offend anyone here...just my 2 cents :thumb:

Metallica.. What about if Dave Mustaine returned to Metallica, so they could end their careers on a high note? :P
There were no solos in St. Anger, suggesting maybe arthritis has finally got the better of Kirk (Nevermind, I wasn't serious...) it would just be interesting, to me, if Metallica got back Mustaine.

Being a fan of both bands...

i recorded the blackened intro backwards for anone who wants to hear it.

I've always wondered how they did that.

oh and i cant remember who mentioned it but good point, lars did win a bammy for "outstanding drummer" so he must be pretty decent

Why does that make him decent ? he could have been nominated or chosen by a bunch of tards for all you know.

^^^

I don't trust anything given by the music industry. Grammy, Juno, etc, they're all BS.

Why does everyone bash on lars? And please give me a better reason than "Cuz he sux" or "Did you hear st. anger?"

also how the **** do i change my avatar

Why do you all bash Lars,it jason Newstead thats **** i m glad he quit
wors5t bass player ever

Newsted rocked.

Does anyone know of a good site where I can get a live recording of Creeping Death at Woodstock 99? I've looked at a few sites and they won't work when I tried to download. The site mentioned by hilfenburger didn't have it (top of the page). I would seriously appreciate your help if anyone can. :)

WTF?

Are you lazy or blind?

Try a search of "lars" and "sucks" and you'll find plenty of intelligent arguments.

No they arent intelligent in the least...Most of the arguments ARE about his drumming or always end up about his drumming on St. Anger. Ever listened to Blackened, the drumming on that is awesome. Im not saying that Lars is the best out there, but he certainly doesnt suck. He may be a little bit of an asshole as a person but as a drummer he is good.

also how the **** do i change my avatar[/QUOTE]




go to user cp and click edit avatar

I don't give a shyt how he is as a person...that has absolutely no bearing on his music whatsoever, and people who use that are morons.

"I hate Axl Rose because hes a dick"
"Phil Anselmo can't sing b/c he's an asshole"
"Lars is a jerk in real life"

Who cares...I don't know them, I don't care how they are. It's all about the music. And, frankly, Lars is an entirely overrated drummer, lucky enough to start a band which became incredibly famous. Any other drummer could have filled his spot. Nothing special.

^^ i know i saw it...thx though

I never said that his personality affects the way he drums...i agree with what you said about people who say something like that. It was only used as a contrast not a basis for a statement. You are still dancing around the question and havent given an answer. You just said he's "nothing special" and infamous "overrated". And the sentence about how anyone else can fill his shoes can be said about almost ANY band.
