I know he receives some hate for this, but man I love to hear Lars talking about history of early metal bands like Sabbath and Maiden... If I ever meet this man in my life I'll ask him to give me a lecture, it's so entertaining
lol..i'm not sure '91 era Bob Rick could get a decent solo out of him these days. He's absolutely terrible and cannot bend a note in tune to save his life. His vibrato has always been horrible as hell but man, everything is 100x worse for the last 20yrs.
I have a bootleg of this show on VHS somewhere in a box. Best 2 days ever. Was at the Toronto show the night before, front row, then this show the next day about 15 rows back.
23:17 & 23:33 Duff note! Played twice in a row. The first time James is like "Bah, I blame this shirt someone's thrown up onstage" then the next time around he does the same mistake again and Kirk is looking at him like "Dude WTF!" Rare James Hetfield mistake...
@@ricardioscarbonara102 That harmony part is james's part. He fucked up three times, actually. It comes to a point he thinks about stopping, but he moves on.
Why Lars changed his mind so extremely regarding the drums? Here he told he developed the idea to be more in the forefront together with the Guitar, not being just a backbone that does a rythm...Suddenly in 1990 he always talked about Phil Rudd and the drumms being the backbone and supporting the rythm and the groove... a complete change! And a step backwards after his idea was innivative and done with the purpose that the backbone thing is boring because anyone does it... Think it would have been better if Lars would not have made a step backwards, but had kept developeing his innovation even more. I think we would have a different Lars Ulrich today... Also he sayed here the thing with Flemming works and he does not want to change this...but he also changed his mind on that and they went to Bob Rock, whos influence on the Sound of Metallica surely helped them to get the biggest band on this planet. But i think even with Rasmussen the record After Justice would have had almost the same sucess... But Metallica would have kept more Aggression... What made Lars change his mind about these two, very important points?
Michaela Stockbauer who knows, but I see what you’re talking about. Lars definitely stopped being technical after Justice. Today he plays in the most basic way. It’s weird because even though he plays very simply and very oddly sometimes, he does have a unique approach to it. Sometimes it becomes too much when he overdrums live
Interesting hearing Kirk say he tries to make his solos on each album different. I like the solos from Ride up to Black Album, still the kirk hammett pentatonic groove but some good minor notes and other cool things especially in songs like The Thing That Should Not Be. But after that it seems like he just want's to stick to his roots, which is all good if its what makes him happy but as a listener it feels a bit stale and i cant really look forward to any solos and expect the same old now.
I find kill em all solos to be too pentatonic shreddy. It's cool but to me it's got nothing on later ones. But it's just that era. I feel he's back to doing that now but with more wah and a bit slower due to age.
These days he's just winging it and being very generic, to be honest. - He has some catching solos here and there on 'Death Magnetic', but some are just horrible. And even less on the latest. - What he's doing is just making a bunch of shreddy noise in the general area where notes work, often resorting to just picking and wah-ing and throwing in some harmonics while jerking the whammy. He also seems to have forgotten how to be in key, even when he improvises on older songs. - Quite disappointing as a lead guitar player I looked up to for his catchy and inventive solos, but now can do a better job than the guitar hero. I liked his style in the Load-era too, by the way, even though it was like Bluesier and quite a bit simpler. At least he dared to bring a new style with confidence, even using slide. But it did lead into him getting more "lazy" about the older more intricate and faster stuff. He doesn't even understand his own 'Shortest Straw' solo anymore. And it is a tricky one, but... it's his own...
Jesus Christ...Hetfield's voice that year was something Amazing! The first 8 seconds were killer!
0:02 Hetfield was such a badass, had a presence about him for sure!
Hetfield IS such a badass :)
21:55 Lars was spot on
Thanks for uploading, I love footage from this era!

Lars is a very intelligent human being..my favorite drummer
"And so forth" - Lars Ulrich
Great upload man
Thank you very much for the video!
that downpicking. im shocked that his wrists dont snap
It's a documentary who passed in a French Québec télévision program called Solid Rock in Musique Plus tv station in April 1989
The way james walk just 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great maturity from Lars, and yes Kirk needs his studio privacy again
Wow! Finally an interview where Kirk doesn't stutter! :)
Jacob Banda he did lol
I think Kirk needs his studio privacy nowadays again.

3:57 the moment that inspired the infamous snare on St. Anger lol

Hammett forshadows the black album 21:00. Shorter songs more airplay.
Seattle was in August. James' voice sounds better here.
ThePowerslave6697 james is a prominent down picker he dwn picks everything unless its so fast it requires alternate picking
he was a kid! It's hard to sing with that young grit night after night !
ThePowerslave6697 absolutely not!
26 years old; "A kid". XD
August was late 1989 it was the pre-black album era because his voice changed
Lars is actually a really well spoken person
The backstage stuff it's in Hamilton, but the parts where the band play live it's in Montreal in the old Forum...
QUEENSRYCHE PLAYING DURING THE INYERVIEW 🤘😈🤘
I had no idea they played in Hamilton
+Ryan Thistle This wasn't the only time. I saw them in Hamilton twice, this one and the "black album".
+Durrrrl34 I saw them in 97 and 2004.

GoCotton that was kirk, not james
It was Kirk indeed. - They're looking at each other like "What's going on?", and Kirk is smiling about it.
ricardios carbonara I think it's James because the 2nd time he fucks up Kirk's head snaps in James's direction then he smiles.
it wasnt kirk, james stops playing..........

"...and so forth..."
Queensryche while Lars speaking?
Yeah, they opened for Metallica!
jUST ICE ALBUM, kinda weak, Justice Tour ........... One of the best Metallica Tours in history!!

ROB SCHNEIDER!!!???? HAHAHAHAHAHA

23:43 Shit happens...

They needed to change
My God!!! I never seen This!!! Shit!!!
