Metallica - Kirk Hammet live solo Battery

[porcomondobastardo]

che pianto......

[demerda]

He's not even looking..

[nekku19]

@sk8n4hope Go to hell troll.

[nekku19]

I like the way Kirk performs. He just chills out, smiles, and kicks ass!

[MrPalut]

best battery solo live i've ever heard :D

[TheBfutgreg]

A little too much wah...ever since the 90s

[TheZombini]

I'm gonna cut his fucking leg off if he doesn't quit with the wah.

[sepehrsnk]

I Love this solo with WAH!

[XDlosDominicans]

-wah wah wah wah wah wah

*click*

Kirk : O__o ?! JAMES COME HERE QUICK !!!

James : Yeah what'sup ?

Kirk : The wah pedal !

James : Yeah what about it ?

Kirk : It fucking turns off !

James : *Facepalm* (Kirk in the back screaming : Hey everybody, the wah pedal turns off ! )

[vgrzen34]

@XDlosDominicans XDDD that's great, fucking loled dude.

[MrMetallicafan25]

@XDlosDominicans ya but hes solos r badass and well none unlike urs so stfu b4 u comment

[XDlosDominicans]

@MrMetallicafan25 Are you high? It's a fucking joke. lol. Or you're too stupid to know that and take it too seriously.

[roryport]

Don't hate on Kirk cuz no other guitarist amounts to him, dave mustaines all speed bs sounds like shit- Zakk Wylde only speed sounds like shit- everyone else doesn't even have the amount of taken Kirk Hammett does- dnt be mad ur av band doesn't have a guitarist as good as Kirk- just cuz he's better Nd metallicas better l- than any other band

[MasterofKnees]

@roryport I agree that Kirk is better than Dave, but he isn't all about speed. Mustaine's solos are very technical, sure they're fast too, but Megadeth overall is very technical. Still, Kirk surpasses him at every point.

[commanderdope]

@MasterofKnees well kirks more trained in the art of lead guitar than dave mustaine, dave said in interviews hes a better at rhytm guitar than lead:p but lets be honest there both out of this world guitar players, no trolling^^

[MasterofKnees]

@commanderdope Indeed he is, Mustaine is a waaay better rhythm guitarist than lead, when he was in Metallica he was absolutely awful. It was only in 1990 (Rust in Peace) he really stepped up and became amazing. Still Kirk is better than Mustaine, as you said.

[spartan934]

@MasterofKnees what are you talking about? while rust in peace was a masterpiece, Killing is my business is a milestone in thrash history, the rhythms mustaine made for that album were more complex than most leads, combine that with the peace sells and you have the two greatest thrash albums of all time...."1990 he became amazing" what a load.....mustaine was, is and always will be amazing

[MasterofKnees]

@spartan934 Don't get me wrong, he was always one hell of an musician, but at times his playing sounded awful, couldn't even play ''My Last Words'' intro right live, but hey, must be hard as hell when you're on all that shit that he was on at that time. Still, he set his mark on metal at the Rust in Peace era, today he does however play better than ever.

[nonpoint666rocks]

@commanderdope Dave Mustaine maybe, I don't know enough about Megadeth like to agree or disagree, but I'm a better guitarrist than Kirk, and I'm not that good, indeed I have friends who play faster stuff than me

[kristofreynders]

wahwah continuously

fucks up the solo for me...

[Koroar]

You people are so fucking stupid. Stop complaining, if you don't like it don't watch it. Kirk is Metallica's guitarist, you're a dole bludging basement dweller, and it's not gonna change.

[TheBucketedOne]

Start practicing and throw away the wah pedal. - Quote from Chris Amott.

[fadhilahhamda]

@TheBucketedOne chris fucking who???

[nekku19]

@TheBucketedOne Fuck sweden.

[TheBucketedOne]

@nekku19  Not my fault he's a better guitarist. :l

[nekku19]

@TheBucketedOne Whatever, they're just a bunch of newcomers who don't really have the right to critizise these guys who have played for the last almost thirty years.

[TheBucketedOne]

@nekku19 Newcomers? Ever heard of Carcass? That little band that was around in the 80s?

[iGuitarGuru]

Everyone hates kirk's wah! He likes it..let him be. It's not one of us up there with one of the biggest bands ever its HIM. Metallica has kept him for a reason his solos fit well.

Have a niceday everyone :)

[Distollica]

@GibsonGuitarist1022 Of course I'm a big fan of Kirk Hammet but his solos already sound good without that pedal.Just too bad he uses it su much

[super7o]

@Distollica but the solo was recorded with the pedal (i)

[liveandletrock864]

@Distollica h

[arigato1918]

¡¡¡que risa me da que critiquen a kirk por usar el wah una bola de pendejos q no han ni de saber tocar a su vieja!!!

[McFro95]

I hate that damn wah...

[NeverMotionless]

@McFro95 What's wrong with? It gives it... distinctiveness to music around it :P

[gogsy60]

Again, Hammet sounds like shit.

[anival2sorto]

@gogsy60 Let's see you make up a solo then and get with one of the world's famous band then

[NeverMotionless]

@gogsy60 Why?!

[MIGUELCLC1]

@gogsy60 like u could do any better

[Emceetem]

@novicegaming101

[olheiser01]

"Oh what does this pedal do?"

"Oh thats my instant amazing-solo pedal. I just step on and off of it so I can sound really cool. then I just have to do whatever the hell I want on my guitar and the pedal makes it sound amazing".

[81RacOOn]

[SpendingBulletZ]

[FlankinspanK]

[rambo00rock17]

my cat pissed all over one of my guitars how should i go about cleaning it? i cant just throw it in the shower a soap it down right or are there special guitar safe piss removers i can use?

[360xboxELITE]

I just jizzed all over my screen....ITS NOT COMING OFF!

[popotopo99]

he needs to create a wah shoe. so he doesnt have to stand in one spot the whole solo. id buy that. Lol

[Breadfan866]

@popotopo99 HAhaahaha!! That's one of the best comments I've read so far about Kirk's wah :D !! rofl

[Deadvision666]

[MrHeavysteel]

Yes, i'd like to see him without wah wah too. But he says "It is extension to my personality"

[jangueoking]

Kirk look's like "Holy shit, I'm bored, let's do another solo, this one is very very easy!" :p

[MsNoreen10]

@jangueoking

kirk for me is not just the best but also a good friend and brod of the band...

he hold a years in metallicas arms so it does mean,hes the capable one.and a goodlooking...........oohhh...­against?

[edgranillo]

[bcolen]

@luvudarren1 bad comeback ;)

[luvudarren1]

hahhahaahahhaahahhahaa lolz

[BlackStrat21]

Wish I could tell if he was actually hitting notes or not, but whattaya know, it's all hiding behind that stupid wah pedal. I'd LOVE to see him play his solo without a wah and see how it'd sound.

[Breadfan866]

How can you see a sound? :p

[BlackStrat21]

Fine, I'd love to SEE him play the solo without a wah LIVE so I know he's not fixing it up in the studio, and I'd love to HEAR all the mistakes he's making without it! Happy now?

[Breadfan866]

hahaha, thank you :) I needed a little cheering up on this black day...

[BlackStrat21]

Heh anytime :)

[HarvesterOfDeath07]

a solo thats somewhat close to this, would be dyers eve

[guitarshreder91]

theres not much to fuck up. and if he played it with out the wah it wouldn't sound anything like what you hear with the wah the effect of the wah is what makes it sweet

[kalebgriffin1993]

@BlackStrat21 But it's like his signature thing with guitar

[ravensall22]

@BlackStrat21 when you have wah you can still hear messups but thats no problem For Kirk because hes fucking awsome

[LeatherBootz]

@BlackStrat21 there are alot of metallica solos without wah

[edgranillo]

@LeatherBootz uhh witch ones other then the ones that dave wrote?

[LeatherBootz]

@edgranillo one, all three of them, the unforgiven, blackened, harvester, Master, Sanitarium shall i go on?

[thijssie1987]

@BlackStrat21 He doesnt make that many mistakes. Ive seen paris pour une nuit (metallica live in paris) and there are some mistakes like strum a little too hard when playing clean. But in the solo parts he rarely makes mistakes. I tried this solo (and I can play pretty good) with tons of wah and you cant mask all your mistakes with it. You can clearly hear all the notes in the solo so I dont think he messing up in this live performance. DOES ANYBODY KNOW WHICH WAH PEDAL he uses during this tour?

[maskil]

@Breadfan866 with LSD ^^

[wildguitaristf5]

@Breadfan866 this one is also so funny comment hahaha

[Breadfan866]

@wildguitaristf5 Which one do you mean? About the wah-shoe? :p

[JMnDC4eva]

@BlackStrat21 he does, i think

watch?v=wqdYJ54rxyk

[surferboy14lp]

@BlackStrat21 one solo bitch

he doesn't use a wah wah in that solo

[Breadfan866]

@surferboy14lp I think also Creeping Death and Master of Puppets and Orion? Probably a lot more solos. But he intends to do more solos live with wah when in the studio he didn't.

[surferboy14lp]

@Breadfan866 well it is kinda of his thing

wah wah shredding solos

crazy heavy metal riffs

and watching james headbang like fucking crazy

[Breadfan866]

@surferboy14lp haha yeah :)

But you know, sometimes I'd like it when he wouldn;t use the wah pedal, it makes everything so monotonous at some point.

[surferboy14lp]

@Breadfan866 it does

i mean i used to think having a wah wah would make all my solos sound better but now i think it's makes them worst

he uses his wah wah gd but it would be nice to hear his solos without it

[juanc2499]

i know it might sound stupid.. but whats a " wah"? lol

[Breadfan866]

That's an 'anologue' pedal where you can control how much treble you use. That creates a cool sounds on some solo's. Try saying the word 'wah'. It's the same way the wah creates that sounds for your guitar. I hope I made it mor

[bergAgreb]

just type in for example in youtube "wah solo"

[Falling12Shadow]

kirk is really good but I think that he's just lazy and doesnt try very hard nowadays and hes just holding himself back

and the wah thing doesnt make him sound horrible but he does use it a little too much.

Metallica has been kickin ass the day they started but were alot better back in the day although Death Magnetic was pretty close. I think James' vocals are coming back and they're coming back to thrash.

[Breadfan866]

I like your vision. I personally don't really know about Kirk, but I know that Lars is really holding himself back. Your can hear him making mistakes and being lazy on the drums. The Justice album was really good and technical, but it never came back. I think it's part of being a professional musician?

[Falling12Shadow]

Yeah man that's true.

All musicians have their ups and downs.

[JP10022]

finally someone who thinks alike as me! yeah man i think metallicas still got some master piece albums left in them but yeah the only thing about them now i dont think they go all out, but if they did they would be back in aciton like the old days

[jfkdjfd]

your so gay, kirk is great player

[HWDANIEL]

I know kirk is like my idol hes about the best guitar player in my book. I just dont get it why he uses the wah wah it makes his solo's sound horrible

[CCTSPORTES]

one mans trash is another mans SOLO

[Ionsweetness]

bc he uses it in the studio. derrr lol

[TheRzax909]

does he tap at 0:18 ?

[Breadfan866]

no, i think he's just swinging around the fretboard with his hand :)

[rasuk]

He doesn't even look at the guitar! The whole instrument is already a part of him, he doesn't need to look at it. He and the guitar are one.

[Evalsrewop]

After playing the same song for 20 years I think nobody would need to look at the guitar.

[zakabgamer]

and he's playing a simplified version of the solo...
