New Lars Ulrich Interview 20.10.2008 - Part 1

[literallarry2011]

What the fuck are you chewing on Lars? lol

[TheBronco67]

should have been started with a heart beat and ended with a heart beat

[MrCrunchypuff]

how come i cant favorite videos??

[Ramtough93]

I think Lars's story, rise to the top, song writing, and drumming has earned him a spot on my list of Metal Gods. Along with Lemmy, Dio, Angus, and Halford.

[HardRockBassist]

St-Anger had to be done but Metallica is still Metallica...BEST BAND IN THE WORLD

[BandaDK]

6:20, Økologisk xD

[WayneWiblin]

I think St Anger is brilliant

[muffigw]

@WayneWiblin Die in a fire.

[chikari123]

@muffigw Nah man, he'll jump in the fire ;)

[MrShaboo22]

@muffigw st. anger rules.

[shinsky24]

Bob Rock BLOWS. He's poop with a side of turd super-sized. 

[undertow9x]

Megadeth is way better then metallica.

[marcpreston1]

@undertow9x eat shit

[shinsky24]

@undertow9x Coke is way better than Pepsi. Fucking 'tard. Who gives a shit about what you think?

[undertow9x]

@shinsky24 YA same to you who cares what you think. Anyway if me saying I think Megadeth is better than metallica gets you all upset then you need to get a life.

[shinsky24]

@undertow9x And you need to get a treadmill, a bath, and some plastic surgery. Guess we both have issues, huh?

[metyzermanfan19]

@undertow9x Original

[hunterhearsthelmsy]

@undertow9x then live with it...................100 million metallica fans vs barely 5 million megadeth fans in which many of them are on both SIDES

[undertow9x]

@hunterhearsthelmsy Look man all I said is I like Megadeth way better than Metallica. That is my option so you deal with it.

[chikari123]

@undertow9x TRUE.

[JohanVonDoorf]

Why does he have an American accent? 0_0

[sergiudrummer]

Imagine Lars instead of James in a concert :))

[ElTequilla]

Haha @ 06:19! Økologisk. And he's right. That's not a danish word which you could say about music.

[TheFunkyWay]

Lol, at some parts you can hear his danish accent

[CrunchDrunk]

Those who says that metallica sucks shouldnt even be alloved to listen to metal.

because metallica is the ONLY yes ONLY band who makes songs to themselfs, so they appreciate the music. they dont, as lars ulrich said bullshit anyone, thats why ozzy osbourne who sometimes says that he dont like some of the songs he is releasing, thats like a giant middle finger to me.

[zackattack94]

no wonder lars drums sounded like crap on this record

[AJickProduction]

if people want to keep bashing on metallica and think they suck, then thats fine but why are you watching a video on metallica then. Go watch justin beiber then like a fag.

[CrunchDrunk]

Metallica fans are all fucking morons if they werent fucking morons they wouldnt contridict me , on what i say,

[Randomness84726]

@CrunchDrunk What do you know about us, shithead?! Go get a life and stop picking on us! If you like Dave Mustaine, you suck dick!

[CrunchDrunk]

no i am on youtube, moron

[Chaostos]

@CrunchDrunk

go eat some shit

[Tallica4Life1]

to sit and interview lars so casually like that about all different things would be so cool . there would be so many questions i would ask

[Randomness84726]

Lars is by far the best drummer in the world!

[bigbosssolidsnake10]

@Randomness84726 not quite,but his playing goes extremely well with the music.

[laithlaith91]

i have a ton of respect for them for trying to go back to their older style with death magnetic..i more or less hate every single album they did after master of puppets because none of them gave me the energy those first 3 records did..but death magnetic is definitely the best they've done since justice

[LoveMetalJuh]

He is the Man!

XD

[TheAlabasterRetard]

He comes across as a little self-righteous and dumb - but I'd still go there.

What a DILF, honestly.

[eggonpetraw]

lars is an idiot. period

[33Barker]

@eggonpetraw

How is he an idiot?

[eggonpetraw]

@33Barker he simply is. no need to explain.

[33Barker]

@eggonpetraw

He seems pretty intelligent to me in his interviews. I don't think you know what the definition of "idiot" is.

[eggonpetraw]

@33Barker all egomaniacs are idiots. it is my opinion and period.

[33Barker]

@eggonpetraw

Yeah true, but I don't think Lars Ulrich is somebody who is "judgemental." I think he is a very "accepting" egomaniac.

[Thrashersxx]

@eggonpetraw lol i think you are the idiot here

[eggonpetraw]

@Thrashersxx hahahahaha Trashersxx is an idiot, too, ahahahahahahahaha

[Thrashersxx]

@eggonpetraw how am i an idiot?

[Thrashersxx]

@eggonpetraw how is he an idiot?

[Chaostos]

@eggonpetraw

U are lars then. period

[TheMainhole88]

nice interview, I saw this guy like two feet away at the sanitarium tour!!! 

[CrunchDrunk]

It has been 1,5 years since the last album. it doesnt feel that long, but that's just cause i have a bad memory.

[CreepingDeath007]

Gör de en intervju med en dansk på engelska? Jävla korkade 08or, se lite utanför er egen stad och förstå att ni lika gärna kunde gjort den här intervjun på svenska...

[someguuy666]

faggot. a drummer can't talk about being a musician, especially lars, and he makes Rick Rubin sound like a fool, fuck him!

[TheBigDickInYourAss]

i jizzed on a mexican girl

[33Barker]

@TheBigDickInYourAss

I bet the bitch ate it up after words huh LOL!!

[okblowme1]

lars i love your limp wristed drumming and your arogant money loving greed driven career keep rocking

[SiletteDK70]

@okblowme1 Dude don't talk bad about Lars Ulrich, he's certainly one of the best drummers of all time, I'd like to see you play better than him!

[xbladeincanimation]

btw drumster needs to suck a dick, mkay. We all need to shut up and stop debating in every fucking video. They are both good, none are sellouts, and both have their pros and cons. Now, shut up.

[rowdyfish]

It's amazing,

People are really closed minded about music...

Groups of people who play, are constantly changing throughout their lives..

People are constantly moving in a different direction..

If Metallica is making more money than you.. Which they are.. :D

You can't have a negative opinion.. It's music.. Enjoy it..

[yoda19hack]

@rowdyfish

Yeah,its music...enjoy it. I love that line :)

[xbladeincanimation]

I have an idea...

SHUT UP!

[dup614]

DEATH MAGNETIC SUCKED! @ jacobs87, BEFORE THE BLACK ALBUM, JUSTICE. ORION IS THE BEST SONG EVER HANDS DOWN! AFTER THE ALBUM, ST ANGER. THAT SHT WAS HARD CORE...

[southpark645]

@dup614 get a clue dude.

[BringerOfTruth123]

@dup614 justice was their bast album along with puppets

[SMWhit3out]

can someone post the translated questions or something? kinda sucks

[megaluisdeth]

Metallica sold out with the Music Video for "one". It's true! Cool song... Damn Lars is boring!

[southpark645]

@megaluisdeth hey u fucker u are a etard, just because they make a video doesn't mean that they sold out!! u have no clue about music or metallica, u don't deserve to listen to metallica, don't ever listen to another metallica song, ungrateful bastards like u don't even deserve to listen to music PERIOD.

[megaluisdeth]

They did sell out! Cliff and James said videos are for Glam Bands, they said they were never gonna do one! You think selling out is a bad thing? I don't! I would of made the video too. I'm a hardcore Metallica fan and Megadeth fan! Obviously I know more about Metallica than you poser.

[southpark645]

@megaluisdeth no they didn't sell out. did u notice what u said? James And Cliff said that videos were for glam bands. HELLO james and cliff were just KIDS when they said that, even if cliff was there, they would have made a video, not maybe not the one video in particular, but eventually they wouldve made a video, they didn't sell out becausse the video is like 7 minutes long, glam band videos were like 4 mins long. they grew up

[megaluisdeth]

That still is selling out. And the length of the video doesn't determine anything.

[southpark645]

@megaluisdeth my saying the length of the video was stating that if they had REALLY sold out, they wouldn't have had a video till black album, and they wouldn't have had a 7 min long video.

[jacobs87]

ok i want to know here if your a metallica fan do you like before black album which is KILL EM ALL, MASTER OF PUPPETS, EXT... or do you like after black album LOAD, RELOAD, ST. ANGER, EXT. or do which do you think is the better music.

for me i love all metallica but there stuff before black album is 100% better than anything after black album. and i dont know what DIMEBAGVISION is trying to get at by saying that all metallica fans want master of puppets 50 times.

[jnoble05]

all good(;

yes even st anger

[Haseo1414]

@jnoble05 no...st anger was crap...even metallica knows that

[Ben0itZ]

i love all their albums. But yes the first four albums were the best. however i believe that they would not be in the hall of fame if it werent for the load albums. it shows that they are very diverse in their knowledge of music. they are one of the most well rounded band i know

[jacobs87]

@Ben0itZ wow i never heard that one before about the load albums. your one of a kind. and i could not agree more. well not sure on its the reason why there in the hall of fame, but the load albums do show there music knowledge alot.

[Randomness84726]

@jacobs87 hell, man I love every album of theirs in existence

[capnkdawg]

When I get the money Im getting a tattoo

The Metallica star

the vulturous sign in the middle of the star

above it "What Dont

Kill Ya"

below it "Make Ya

More Strong"

The song Broken Beat And Scarred came the day my life was the worst it had ever been...This band has changed my life ever since I was 13 years old

[SMWhit3out]

@capnkdawg thats stupid.

get kill em all album art.

Shit thanks for the idea im doing that. KILL EM ALL

[bootlegpreacher]

7:50 - 8;23

he nailed it right there

[jacobs87]

he has some things right and some things wrong. when he says that the fans respect them because there honest. thats bull shit. i wish it was true but its not. most people think they sold out. but they did not because they stayed true to themselfs and honest on what they did. no bull shit. thats what i love about them. they can make fun of themselfs and say fuck you to all who hate that.

[DimebagVision]

@jacobs87

They are honest. They "sold out" because they wanted to explore other music and admitted to wanting to explore other music which is why they agreed on hiring Bob Rock as their producer and released the Black Album.

Metallica is one of the greatest bands in the world. Its most of their fans that are absolute shit. YOU are one of them.

[jacobs87]

@dimebagvision yeah i know they sold out. they sell out every night. at least they made the choice themselfs and not others. i dont care if you like metallica or not. im not going to change your mind. and i respect your opinion about them.

but your the one acting like a child calling us metallica fans shit. i am not hating on you because you probably love slayer and there "GREAT SOLOS" love who you love and hate what you want. just dont act like a child please.

[DimebagVision]

@jacobs87

Metallica fans ARE shit. "OH THEY SOLD OUT!! WAAAHHHH!!! WHY CAN'T THEY MAKE 50 MASTER OF PUPPETS ALBUMS???"

And no, Slayer sucks. I appreciate the multi-musical talent that is Metallica.

Metallica ALWAYS stayed true to themselves. They wanted to rule the world and be the best band out there. Guess what?! THEY ARE!!

[jacobs87]

@dimebagvision why would you want 50 master of puppet albums? it would get boring. thats why they changed there sound with load and reload. you dont want to be repetitive. i just dont understand why you think metallica fans are shit. whats your deal.

[DimebagVision]

@jacobs87

....

i was mocking metallica fans when i sarcastically said "why don't they make 50 master of puppets albums"

[jacobs87]

@dimebagvision well im not one of those fans at all. i liked load and reload. not the greatest but i still like it. everyone in here would most likely agree with me when i say everything pre black album is better then everything post black album.

[DimebagVision]

@jacobs87

You just proved to be one of those fans. REAL Metallica fans would know that every single album (yes even St. Anger. Especially the presidio stuff) are brilliant.

[jacobs87]

@ dimebagvision umm ok. are you a metallica fan? because its hard to tell sarcasm over the fucking internet. and its my opinion about there albums. but you are probably right REAL Metallica fans probably think that but im a REAL METAL FAN and from what i said before about there albums is true. the best thrash came from pre black album. post black album is good too. its just a different type of good. just my opinion.

[capnkdawg]

@DimebagVision I completely agree with what you said, except Slayer isnt shit...but everything else is SO true, and you did a great job of summing it up with few words...but Im actually a huge Slayer fan, even though I think Metallica is way better

[fearvo]

@DimebagVision you looked this up.

[DimebagVision]

@fearvo

looked what up?

[Zilencez94]

@DimebagVision The hardcore Metallica fans does accept the band for what they do. Dont say that ALL the Metallica fans are shit.

[mickjagerbaby]

@DimebagVision Way to go man. Cool username too

[Arxodoulis]

@DimebagVision fuck yeahhhh.Maybe not the best band but one of the greatest

[skeletorissatan]

@DimebagVision Fuck all these gippos that insult Load and Reload-Load was the finest album they ever did. And Master Of Puppets, whilst good, is the most overrated album i have ever heard

[sabianHH]

hummm

[Koda924]

I miss Cliff D':

[TehSorso]

as producer for DM. yes, they should have changed bob rock , who screwed up (partially) during Saint Anger, but not bring popstar Ruben. even better, they didn;t even need a producer, they could have done good enough themselves. Anyways, what do i know, i'm just a punk

[TehSorso]

at about 4:00 lars is subtly telling us that rick ruben is a dickhead who doesn;t know anything about music but just goes "that's good -that's not good" like an ignorant asshole. which probably is true ... i mean as long as you don;t have a reaaaly strong knowledge of music and instruments (like bob rock, although many of you'd say he is a failure - he is not, he was just trying to be comercial at some point and sucked ass at it) you can;t make good music. metallica shouldn't have chosen ruben

[NoUsernameAssinged]

@TehSorso if you check out a slipknot interview, corey taylor says the same thing, only more direct. he says rick ruben sucks

[DimebagVision]

@NoUsernameAssinged

LOL @ Corey Taylor saying Rick Ruben sucks.

[zemlay]

@TehSorso So true. Bob Rock did get Metallica their full potential though, you have to agree. The Black album with James's vocals, come on.

[TehSorso]

@zemlay I absolutely agree that the Black album was great.

[ginocidian1]

why it wouldnt be master of puppets is because when we look back at 1986, that record was amazing... that was superfast and superscary and dynamic back in that time... if someone can make a record that is fast wihouth that ugly deathmetal sound... it could be what master was back in the day

[Paul777Jr]

You're musical wrecks..

C# Major has 7 #'s

so the 7th is a B#

and in C# Major the F is simply called E# or E sharp.. just being consistent..

I don't think it's very logical,, but when u don't like it u need to biuld a time machine and go back to i don't know when and kick the guy who's invented note scripture.

me out

[HittokiriBattousai17]

Lars is god

[ninoiphone12]

spent half of the interview what the questions were like

[MetallicaAndCrookedX]

its funny.. it looks like he only wears one shirt.. he always got the same shirt on.. (:

But he still kicks some hard ass

[mauricetomas]

lars' ego is as big as his forehead

[braddudeguy]

How? Explain your statement. How is his ego big. Where in this entire interview does he come across egotistic?

[xveraxjoanx]

true :P

[acrobaticaromatic]

his ego used to be bad. he's alright these days. any ego you see is you projecting yourself onto his statements and mannerisms and body language. so really you have a huge ego. good luck with that.

[Metal8909]

i am hapy if they are happy with a record

[mohosabien]

Hehe økologisk is danish for organic

[bachskiii]

really? i love how he says uummm :D

[nattramn]

i hate how lars says "um".....something about it...

[Bradyshoody]

dud ppl need to stop talking about slayer like, OH YEA METAL HARDCORE SLAYER, no just because u listen to metal dusnt mean anything fast and distorted ;even if its shit like slayer; is the best

[realgdrummer]

@Bradyshoody slayer is overrated because they sound like shit and the only true talented person in the whole fucking band is lombardo....kerry king sucks ass at guitar and fuck everyone else in slayer...i like good band tht actually have good tone and sound

[luvz2sploogeify]

alot of people talk shit about lars and call him a douche, but u know what he is a true musician. i think that pull between him and James is what makes Metallica the best band out there. its cool to see him and the rest of the guys just having a good time with this new record

[spooninspoon]

@luvz2sploogeify Boom Exactly.

[JumpInTheFire83]

am i wrong, or did he say f sharp...does that exist? or is it f flat that doesnt exist

[realgdrummer]

well an f flat would be an e sharp and an f sharp would be a g flat....rarely played but pantera tuned everything flat so im sure tht every note can be flat or sharp

[stripes5150]

no B sharp or C flat....Peace!

[realgdrummer]

but tht would be the same note wouldnt it....and what would it be called if its neither

[fruciantefan12345]

it still counts as a b sharp, sharp just means you raise a semitone.

[stripes5150]

no it doesnt...you're an idiot...go fuck your hat now....bye!

[SefirosuGenesis]

Theres no such thing as a b sharp...

[Koda924]

It's called 'C.'

[stripes5150]

no such thing as an E sharp....it goes right from E to F.....then B to C.....

[NUNPUNCHER714]

dont question lars....

[jonnyboy531]

Holy crap this is my birthday!

[ilovejameshetfield1]

I love the way he talks. And Kirk. Such sweet hearts.

[MisterGodfather1]

yeah metallica rules the world!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[sathos]

That comes down to opinion then anyway as I am one of those people who loves all of megadeth but only some of metallica...if I were to recommend metallica to someone I would tell them to avoid ST Anger and Death Magnetic... and not to listen to load/reload until they had heard the black album..etc etc

[TheJonboy103]

But surely the whole point in listning to a band is that all there music is accsesable.But if what your saying is that you need to listen to different songs from megadeth simply because the other stuff sucks then surely people are going to favour metallica over megadeth.thats my view i think that metallica will always be better than megadeth because they are more easy to listen to on a whole because you dont have to pick and choose what songs are good and what are not.

[caimanque]

They're more than just a THRASH METAL band. Thats make them WAY more interesting.

[Theshiggityshwa]

That's what I say.

They can do any type of music, really.

[6is6here6]

megadeth is good, but Metallica will always be better

[Tim0nTh]

Yeah, its Metallica for me to, I think its kinda the thing you "grew up with". I grew up with Metallica so i like them better

[6is6here6]

i barely got into Metallica about 2 years ago, and now they're my favorite band, i tried listening to megadeth and they just sucked

[oldeskoole623]

Then you obviously have not heard their good shit or really listened to them, if you like Metallica, then you can't say Megadeth sucks, thats being a hypocrit, theyre just as good, if not better.

[6is6here6]

i listened to symphony for destruction. in rust in peace, and what not, i didn't like it. the only good thing was dave's guitar, thats about it. their drums didn't add anything special, neither did their bass, and teir vocals were okay

[oldeskoole623]

Thats not even their good stuff, symphony of destruction is one of the most simple songs they have. Listen to Holy Wars, Take No Prisoners, Wake Up Dead, Good Mourning/Black Friday, Tornado of Souls, The Conjuring, Set The World Afire, those are just a few examples, Megadeth makes badass music, you just need to listen to the right stuff.

[stoffe77]

omg cant believe all you people who insult metallica and lars cus even if you dont like their music they are one if not the greatest rock band of all time. Go Metallica!

[grunerlokka]

he has an accent

[brugerper]

lol why do you think?

[asdfghjykl]

i agree, dave is fucking amazing, but its his fault that he was a drugie, but th eother metallica guys did beer and drugs too, so u no, wat can u say

I LOVE METALLICA

[kornfuckingfan]

the universe is different?

well that explained why metallica cant make another album thats as good as master of puppets

=)

[uutooyu]

lars just shave your damn head. that hairline is kind of fading away fast! lol!

[tedoldot424]

Metallica pisses me off their new stuff is ok by for God's sake can they at least write one good THRASH METAL song again?

[johncairns12]

How can you call Lars a dick?

If you want a dick then see Dave Mustaine, nothing but a pre-madonna drunkard who went off in a sulk (he was fired ) and tried desperately to top Metallica.

[DimeebagDarrell]

Totally agreed on, Mustaine was kicked out of Metallica for just that type of behaviour. What's the point in having all that talent if your just gonna be a dick Mustaine?

[masonnomo2]

I met Dave Mustaine at Gigantour. I respect the guy and I love him, but he's an ass lol. He knows he's famous. I still love his music. I love megadeth and metallica

[oldeskoole623]

And he succeeded tremendously.

[JumpInTheFire83]

plus if it wasnt for lars and james, dave mustaine wouldnt even have megadeth

he would be nothing

[j2a2k5e7]

who r u to judge ppl u dont even no.. ya spastik.. dont argue with me either cause ive already won the arguement..

(this is aimed at XBOXLIVEROX) and any1 else that wants to put shit on metallica u can SMO

[FrayedSanity1981]

Why is he a dick?

[fnuggie]

Why don't you start the most successful metal band of all time and then call him untalented.

[spartan8]

Swedes:S

[Oscarskate1001]

Spam Click 6:44 too!!!!! xD

[Oscarskate1001]

spam click at 4:29, Lars is trying to fly!

[ultimatefighter187]

hes so down to earth....and one of the reasons i love being a drummer

[Oscarskate1001]

Spam klick on 5:44 hahahaha!!!!

[iamthelivingdead]

yeah. that'll be fine s lawyer? hmm. might be a beer ind handy then...

[iamthelivingdead]

he is the greatest... a real dane like myself. and he enjoys life like so many others. stop picking on him!
