1. You might want to look up "humour" or "joke" in the dictionary some time. I knew mentioning him would make a lot of people angry. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously ("Your favourite midget with a Napoleon-complex").
2. I believe Lars is a better drummer then most people think. I mean; look at all the (ex-)Metallica members. Jaymz, Kirk, Robert Trujillo, Jason, CLIFF BURTON, Dave Mustaine. All first rate musicians and he played with them.
If he really was good for nothing, I think Cliff would have kicked him out long time ago.
BUT agreed, he is no match for Mitchell or Bill Ward (Black Sabbath whom I forgot).
3. No material from the ...And justice for all (except One) live?
Then I have several bootlegs where Metallica gets off the stage and a briliant Metallica-tribute band (who sounds EXACTLY like Metallica) plays "Harvester of sorrow", "Dyer's eve" and "Blackened" for them...

First of all, Lars was responsible for kicking Mustaine out of the band in the first place, and Metallica's fame is a sick zombie of Mustaine's creative ideas in the first place. And I certainly wouldn't call Trujillo or Newstead 'first-rate' musicians. Hell, I would say we can't even tell how good Burton was, because on Metallica's early recordings you can't even hear the bass (Although because of Orion, we know he could write songs).
Secondly, go listen to Master of Puppets for a few minutes, and make sure you listen carefully to the drumming. There's absolutely nothing interesting going on there. I know 13-year-olds (literally) who can drum better than he does in that song.
And finally, Metallica may have played some from AJFA live early on, but I know that they stopped doing so.

You're either pulling my leg or you don't know your metal history... With the risk of making a total ass out of myself.
If anyone was responsible for sacking Mustaine, it was Burton. Lars and James will never admit it but there are a lot of people who will tell you that that Cliff was the leader of Metallica. He and Mustaine never got along in the first place.
When I say "first rate musicians" I'm talking about musicians with high technical skills. Maybe that you're a brilliant bassplayer but I would say that Jason and Robert are fuckin bass monsters. I've heard Robert do a solo and it was impressive.
Jason however indeed wasn't much of a songwriter. And it's a bit early to say anything about Robert.
If you search the Internet long enough, you shouldn't find it very hard to find some Cliff Burton footage (from Trauma to Metallica).
And you should be able to hear bass on the early Metallica songs...
Anaesthasia (pulling teeth) which is a 4 minute bass solo...
The intro of "For whom the bell tolls". Yes, it's a bass...
The Call of Ktulu
The only album where the basses are mixed in the background is ...And justice for all.
And no, they still play songs from ...And justice for all. Maybe they didn't play many songs when opening for the Stones but they did play at least 3 songs from AJFA on the last tour.
Post by: Storm Rider on 16 Jan 2006, 13:27
But I was under the impression that Lars and James kicked out Mustaine for his heroin addiction, not that Burton kicked him out because their personalities clashed.
And isn't Trujillo out of the band now anyway?

Ever listened to "Song for the Dead" by QOTSA? I've been looking for three years and I'm still not sure if I've found as decisive a display of drum pyrotechnics as that song (particularly the first and last minutes). I'm not going to say Dave Grohl is the best drummer that ever lived, or the best drummer in rock right now, but he's pretty freakin' good.

Me and my complete ignorance towards Stinking Lizaveta (they do have an interesting name) forgive you ;)
So how would you describe Stinking Lizaveta, from the pics I'm reminded of riot grrrls or hardcore.
Edit: or I could look at thje picture and notice the big yellow STONERROCK sign :p

John French (Captain Beefheart + Solo)
I looked for like half an hour and seriously couldn't find a picture of him with his drums. Oh well. Here's this one because it's kind-of scary looking:

she is Sayuri, from the post-hardcore band Bleach. imagine a cross between System of a Down and Fugazi with Ian MacKaye and Guy Picciotto and Serj Tankian replaced by yelling Japanese girls. they rock faces off.

That guy from Ted Leo and the Pharmacists. I don't know his name. If it keeps changing, then...well...I'm assuming the guy who did the drumming on Shake the Sheets is in this pic.

I mentioned him earlier in the thread, isn't he amazing? Like, seriously, I can not imagine playing drums to Beefheart. too chaotic.
I read the Beefheart once put his tape recorder in the kitchen sink and recorded he and his wife talking. He gave it to the drummer and told him to play it. That guy's demanding.

Richard Reed Parry (Arcade Fire, Belle Orchestre) Simply the best helmet and keyboard player ever.

Tim Dow- Season to Risk, Shiner, On, Year of the Rabbit
Jason Gerkin- Molly Mcguire, Season to Risk, Shiner
John Stanier - Helmet
Max Weinberg- E Street Band, Late Night with Conan O'Brien
Also- Jason Newstead and Robert Trujillo are both ridiculously talented musicians, and I hate Metallica. Both are very schooled, play upright and electric eatremely well, can read and score, and have chops in varying disciplines for miles. I have seen Newstead play slap that would make Flea weep. I have also seen Trujillo play upright bluegrass music in ways that would make Lee Sklar consider retirement. These guys are not only the bass players for their respective bands, but sought over studio guys, (especially in the case of Trujillo). While their preferred forms of music aren't my cup of tea, they're good.

I just want to add Brann Dailor (Mastodon)
I love mastodon, and he played great live but by the gods he overplays so much. a talented guy, but he needs to learn a little restraint :)

I don't care how many time signatures you can play in at the same time, how many 32nd notes you can play, Buddy Rich just sold it better. He could also play like a motherfucker.

I have a CD where he and Krupa are actually dueling. It's great.

Aw, dude. Not cool. Now I have to change my underwear.
Now Krupa could definitely sell it, though he didn't have anywhere near the chops that Rich did.

A bit too popular to be liked around here? Have you seen Dave Grohl be mentioned, specifically about Nirvana? I don't think we're having trouble with people being too well-known.
Well, I don't think there's ever been any question as to Dave Grohl's abilities. Guster and Rosenworcel, on the other hand, are still unquantifiable.
