+w00dmii5t3r I bet Varg Vikernes wants to have a cup of thea with you :)
+! TheGamingMetalhead ! Omg that's brilliant 😂😂😂
! TheGamingMetalhead !
I'll pass thanks!
legendary drummer
One of the few.
yes a a very cool guy. met him in Charlotte nc back in 1990. I was a crazy teenager probably annoyed the he'll out of him but he was a professional and talked to us for like ten minutes..great memories
He’ll give you a workout !
No shit
I got to meet Slayer during their Divine Intervention tour. Unfortunately it was the period when Dave was out of the band, so he wasn't there. Neither was King's hair. I saw Slayer again during the Anthrax, Megadeth, Metallica tour, so I did get to see Dave play then.
Dave has done a lot for Slayer
....Absolutely !
Dave IS Slayer
Irfan Khalis yes he is😊
Yeah sounds like he was actually responsible for most of the important moments in the band's career.
he helped founding it for fuck sake.
His playing on the album South of Heaven should be a part of music history.
Dave's playing on South of Heaven is masterful.
gymnassfan It is a part of history.
every beat generated by Lombardo is a True Historic Masterpiece in its entirety
every record he recorded is a music history, Slayer,Grip INC,Testament,Philm,Fantomas,Dead Cross,Suicidal Tendencies etc
it is
wish he was still in Slayer.
+Michael Scott Watch your mouth Mike....!! Slayer is BOSS...
+Chris Shindel I do like the older albums like Hell, Reign, and Seasons. However the drumming on Divine and God Hates by Bostaph is just technically better, at least thats what my friends and I think. The original isn't always better...
+R. Brandon Perez True. Bostaph is nice... God Hates Us All is proly my favorite non 80s album.
+R. Brandon Perez Bostaph technically better than Lombardo.... oh man, theres some really stupid people on the internet.
Joko515 Yep like night and day. You play?
Such a humble guy compared to a lot of musicians in his position
*cough cough* Lars *cough cough*
Yeah, Buddy here is like the opposite of Lars.
Compared to Kerry King
@@Mr_Taternater Lars is nice
*Cough cough* Lars is a shitty drummer , anyway. *Cough Cough*
Lombardo is the guy in the band who’s NOT an idiot. There’s a seminar with Q&A where he breaks down why he left slayer for the final time; literally he showed them their own numbers and they were getting robbed blind by all the business associates and they had no idea. Plus when he came back they treated him like a hire-on, which in some cases would apply but not in this case as far as I’m concerned…
They paid him peanuts, so fuck them.
Yeah...Dave IS tha man NO doubt. Without him, they (Slayer) wouldn't be ANYTHING.....
Your not getting robbed if you can buy a 2 million dollar house.
The God
Father
Dave was way too good for the rest of the guys in Slayer. The other guys seemed like they were trying too hard to be "fuck the rules" and not care. Dave was the one trying to keep things professional and keep everything moving forward.
Dave will be remembered for all time for his greatness. His legacy is intact. Period.
The other guys will retire or do "projects".
Dave can just, pretty much, choose to do what ever....Since he is, hands down, the best metal drummer in history. Tom is a good singer. King is adequate at guitars. But dave........They are just not at his level.
So awesome when you find out that one of your heroes is such a cool person. He's been as important to Slayer as Jeff.
Dave is the heart of slayer. The beat. Tom is the voice of slayer. Jeff was the soul of slayer. Kerry king is the appendix of slayer, which got infected and should've been removed before it killed the entire body of Slayer.
I don't know. I get the Kerry hate but you can't write Kerry out of what Slayer is. Back in the 80's, when they made the albums that immortalized them, Kerry was the physical manifestation of Slayer's attitude. And he's contributed a lot of amazing riffs/songs and at least one good whammy solo that he kept using again and again. :)
@@zulawoo nice description of King. Reminds me of when my appendix ruptured and dumped so much poison in me. Almost killed me.
@@kevinscarborough9982 Yeah. I have nothing against bostaph or holt. They're doing the best they can do, worthy replacements, but king just...
I mean, I made that comment 2 years ago, haven't changed my mind a bit.
@@zulawoo I just realized now how long ago it was, but the appendix reference is hilarious. 😂
Wow you can tell this is a good dude. He seems so nice
joey hakimi
I've never seen Dave not be a gentlemen. I'm sure he is a nice guy.
I met him years ago right before Reign came out and he was the nicest most personable guy. Just a true straight up guy. I've always admired that he has stayed true to his roots and never forgot where he came from. A great inspiration and role model to anyone in the music profession.
Well said ..
The God of metal drumming! ALL HAIL!

The best american thrash metal ever....Tom from Chile and Dave from Cuba
"Globalization" what Mr. Trump dont understand ;) imagine a Wall was there n Slayer never happend?!
Anthrax had a punkvibe. To me at last.
@@zsaz4453 both came LEGALLY you fucking idiot. this is what Trump and ALL americans wants.
@@zsaz4453 besides Socialism is the first reason Dave left Cuba, the left in America is wanting to turn America into Socialism. haha besides there is no way to build a wall between cuba and USA do you even know where Chile is? dumbass
@Kerry McCall cuba "was" a communist country? Do you even know the difference between socialism and Communism?
Fun Fact: Dave went to high school with Rapper Sen Dog from Cypress Hill
Yeah, I heard that in a Nardwuar interview
South Gate love!
I went to that high school!
@@edwardlara4271 class of 02
@@chidoboy6837 more like class of 1984
nothing negative about slayer great interview.
tim stever Exactly. I can't stand all this hate on what Slayer did or didn't do, especially KFK. If the music is good, go with it. I'm not one to get into band politics.
Dave is a legendary drummer,great guy too.
Dave Lombardo, Marty Friedman, Jason Newsted, and Dave Mustaine, just imagine.
It's a shame there's already a band called The Rejects
Didnt Dave Mustaine fire Marty Friedman tho?
@@evan7353 i think it was Marty's choice to leave but I'm not sure
the most obscure band
You misspelled Cliff Burton.
Legend
What I like about Lombardo in addition to him being such an energetic and original drummer always willing to experiment and find new elements to his playing is his down-to-earth attitude. He has reason to be angry/bitter towards Slayer, yet he is willing to remember also the good times and embraces the great work they have done together in the past. Wanting to spend time with your family and kids should be respected more. Kids need to have a thrashing, ass-kicking dad!😎
Dave was my neighbor in California...he is a super cool guy just like the rest of the guys in the band...I wish he was still in the band
In South Gate?
Sounds like Dave basically got the band off the ground in the early days. Logo, Rick Ruben, damn. There would be no Slayer without Dave in the beginning!
+lonnie333 Not to mention his incredible and innovative drumming.
Damn, Dave got a good memory!!
Probably just clean living, I'd imagine.
@@BoozyBeggar lol him n me both!
What a great, humble, dude. I know drummers are cut from a different cloth in general, but most just seem like genuinely good guys.
Dave for me was the gamechanger. He made Slayer from another metal band to something that I really could not stop listening to.
He sounds like a really cool guy,and he is one hell of a drummer.
I saw him play with Suicidal last year, always kicks ass! One of the best.
I had the pleasure of meeting Dave at a taping of That Metal Show. He is the nicest guy, and super appreciative of his fans.
One of the pioneers of fast singles on the kicks. Dave’s contribution to Slayer’s discography is huge. He served the songs very well. Also, played a right hand kit like Ringo, as a lefty. Great interview.
respect to Dave Lombardo, one of my preferite heavy metal drummers.
Lombardo, such a soft spoken man! No air about himself
He was the one who asked to form the band and he made the iconic logo, got Rick Rubin... I wish Kerry would have remembered how much of the band's success is on Dave. when he wanted him out or barely paying him
The Band treated Dave poorly. Now that Jeff is dead Slayer can't be without Lombardo. A few Weeks maternity leave was not too much to ask.
*paternity
@bryon jacksonStill is.
Props to Dave for sticking to his guns, don’t forget, Tom had his family on several tours, guess who paid for that?
They wouldn't give him leeway on his child's birth and from what he said his financial benefits were shit from touring. They pretty much fucked him
I have been to 8 slayer concerts in my life, the first 6 with Lombardo. The thing that stood out in those 6 concerts was his drumming !! Just out of this world, how sharpe he was 🤘
Is
To this day I laugh when people call Slayer white supremacists. The lead singer is from Chile and the drummer is from Cuba. The ignorance of the masses amuses me.
People call Slayer white supremacists for such bullshit reasons. They compare the logo to the eagle used by Nazi germany.. and thats it. People dont read.
Funny story from when i was in 8th grade was these kids in school who really liked Slayer and actually believed Slayer were appraising nazism in their songs. They were also what we called "hobby-nazis", basically stupid kids who mistook the hardcore scene's way of fashion for the neo-nazi movement or sth, and for some reason thought Angel of Death was praising Dr. Mengele. The hilarity looking back on this is immense
Quite simply people are idiots
@Invidious fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffuck you
@Invidious agreed.
@@konkelberryfinn the song is about the nazi doctor but it's not praising him.
Dave is a co founder of Slayer and should have been treated that way. Unbelievable drummer.
If that story about Rick Rubin is true (and Dave has always seemed 100% legit), Slayer has a lot more to thank him for than they've ever acknowledged.
First, the dude was an absolutely essential part of the sound and energy that made them famous, and according to this he also helped initiate the deal that launched them to super stardom, and yet they fucked him over multiple times. Yay for business and art.
One of the greatest drummers
He absolutely murdered it on Testament's The Gathering. That album is untouchable.
The greatest drummer ever........PERIOD.
Nick Menza is up there too
The best drummer Metallica ever had.
Without Lars there is no Metallica.
@@A30_TKD well at least lars started Metallica so stfu and cut him some slack
@@A30_TKD they are objectively not pop music, you're just saying that because they're big. And yeah, lars may not be that advanced, but he is a key point in the writing process, not lars, no metallica
No he wasn't so stfu and stop bringing that sht up
So many people hate on Lars. If it wasn't for his style and decisions that he brought to the band, they would absolutely 100% never be where they are today. So much of metallica sound has to do with Lars.
Dave seems like the coolest most genuine guy in metal.
I have an old modern drummer magazine were Gene Hoglan was interviewed.Saying how he was helping influence Dave with double bass playing back when he was a roadie for slayer.Gene was only a single kick drummer player at that time and his first times on double kick kit were on Daves kit and Gene was just naturally right away kicking ass on double kick from the beginning and Dave was impressed and learned things from Gene
+tweevers2 The 2 are in a class of their own
+tweevers2 the sad thing is, the Haunting the Chapel EP has some of the sickest double bass drums in thrash, practically all of Captor of Sin and Haunting the Chapel is solid fast double bass beginning to end, but in the original mixes you can't hear it well at all. I have a remastered splatter vinyl from about 5 or so years ago that sounds amazing you can hear all the double bass.
Google "double bass" sometime.
so I forgot the word 'drum' in there ...big deal if you don't know what I was getting at that's to bad us drummers don't always say 'playing double bass drums' or 'double kick drums'.. simply shorten it to playing double bass...and yes a 'double bass' is an orchestral instrument...everyone knows that
tweevers2 I just thought it was funny, but if you want to pout about it I guess I can't stop you.
I’ve put Dave’s kit together on the riser and loaded it out a few times, he and his roadie(s) were easy to work with compared to other acts I’ve dealt with over the years
Best drummer in metal history in my opinion !!!
Gene
I was fortunate to see him play with Slayer live and to this day it was loudest spot on performance I have ever seen they played exactly like even better than the album's were recorded arias voice was perfect and they opened with Rain in blood with the rain and thunder in back ground. AMAZING!
Blew my mind when I saw his video talking about Slayer and how much he got paid. There is no way one of the greatest metal drummers of all time should make less than me welding. Unbelievable.
Shocking, really. Artists being treated like dirt as usual.
On South of heaven Dave plays the best drumming l ever heard.He is amazing.
South of Heaven is an institution. And Lombardo....Nails it.
The most talented drummer I've ever seen !! The entire reason I picked up the sticks God bless you dave
The one and only legendary metal drummer of all time..... unmatched... phenominal❤️
The reason slayer is amazing is because they went straight from Iron Maiden to nearly inventing death metal in three albums
Show no mercy is much more aggressive than iron maiden imo
@@stinkodoronion oh OK then, didn't understand it that way
@@hectorvegasduque2234 he probably should have said first three eps.
More Thrash pioneers than Death metal I'd say and yes they did cover Iron Maiden also Judas Priest and other English new wave heavy metal bands of the time, 'Show No Mercy' you can easily hear the British influence :))
@@nathansciarone5627 Yes- speed metal/thrash- not "death"
Wings Of Fire?!! Haha! Slayer was definitely a better name.
Rings*
Fuckin' Wings of Fire!!!
Ahh haaa! Tom screaming that!....🤣
They decided "Slayer" for the band
and "Wings of Fire" for their hot-wing chain restaurant.
Sounds like a spoof of Ring Of Fire lol.
Dave Lombardo is my all time favorite drummer love his work in Slayer and in Philm also really like his tour with Suicidal Tendencies he is an incredible drummer gets better every time
greatest metal drummer of all time, a true living legend
Sad how Kerry King forgot his roots and kicked Dave to the curb and shut him out of the Slayer farewell tour.
I'm a massive Slayer fan.
Going to see them in Dublin this coming Thursday.
But you're right.
Kerry is a douche
I saw them in Mansfield, Massachusetts a couple weeks ago. Awesome show man, but Kerry was a douche on stage.
@joe winkler Isn't neapolitan an ice cream? I think you meant Napoleon lol.
@joe winkler I know he's fat, but a Neopolitan complex?!? Is that even possible, lol?!? A Napoleon complex, sure, but not Neopolitan, lol. Funniest comment EVER, lol!?!
There's gotta be stuff they aren't telling us.
Great guy. No fake coolness, just talking natural like to a friend in private. Thats real coolness
Dave Lombardo and Nick Menza (Rip) 2 of the best drummers in Metal history..
For sure
@KillaCrossover318 mustaine is a maniac
It's amazing to me how normal and down to earth he is. Seems like an awesome guy.
It's shouldn't be surprising but it's super cool when you see interviews with someone you really admire and they come off as a really genuine and down to earth person. Great interview!
Best Drummer in the world!
Dave Lombardo is the best thrash metal drummer in my opinion.He has great timing, does the thrash metal beat very well, and is extremely fast
RIP Jeff Hanneman!!
Finally I got the nerve to bring a set of bongos and a Santana record to class 😂 Talk about humble beginnings.
Truly one of the most genuine and humble person ive ever seen interviewed. An absolute legend
Just last week i watch him play with suicidal tendencies
Damn this cubano is a badass
I saw Dave play with Suicidal at musink 10 days ago and he was amazing live..
The best possible scenario that could possibly happen after he left Slayer.
@@JonnySublime maybe he was still in testament after the gathering
@@laurentdupont-gagnon7889 the thing about life is it's not so much where you were, it's where you are
At 3:56 Dave Said They Played At The Woodstock. It Was A Night Club In Anaheim, Ca. Several Friends And I Hung Out There Through 1981 And 1982. Many Bands Got Their Start There, Great Times And Memories!!
Love Lombardo! He is in my opinion the Best and most influential thrash double bass drummer in metal history! I could listen to a whole album of just his drum tracks! Not to mention one of the most approachable and friendly people in such a huge band like Slayer!
The legendary drummer of Slayer. The best metal drummer ever. To bad it ended the way it did with Slayer. Lombardo deserved better.
I still remember the first time I listen to War Ensemble...... So much so that I remember with who I was, what time of day it was, the way I was dressed. That feeling man, I was just amazed on how Dave played. I think i had it on repeat for like 30 times on that day.
Tell me a drummer without telling me they are a drummer. The greatest drummer ever Dave Lombardo
Had our picture taken together when he was touring with Tendencies. I forgot that I was wearing slayer shirt for Divine Intervention, their first album without him.
He doesn't look happy, I'm an asshole.
😂😂😂😂
At least you met Dave right?
He should of been on the final tour with slayer
such a down-to-earth guy. Great drummer
Dave is a humble guy, A true metal legend! Cubans like him and Tico Torres (Bon Jovi) Rudy Sarzo (Ozzy,Quiet Riot, Whitesnake, Dio) Juan Croucier (Ratt) and other makes us CubanAmericans Proud!! 🇨🇺🤘"Long Live Metal"
you forgot robert sarzo from hurricane , i met both brothers when they were touring with geoff tate here in new york city . i'm cuban too born and raised in the vedado havana cuba .
Don't forget about Roger Miret of Agnostic Front; he was born in Cuba as well.
Dave is so cool. in Slayer and the fact that he played in the misfits reunion is fucking incredible
Dave Lombardo is around Australia in October for his great solo shows. His groovy style along with the insane tempo is a must see for all drummers.
So if Dave didnt happen to go by Kerrys house Slayer never wouldve happened. This man needs WAY more credit. Also hes the best damn drummer iv ever heard
One of metal's greatest icons.
Are we ganna get Bruce Dickonson on Wikipedia.
+G-gamer We didn't have enough time, unfortunately
Loudwire :(
+G-gamer Dickonson, my sides! lmao
Eddiethenotsogreat Dickinson. jeez
G-gamer Don't change it, that made my morning!
Favorite drummer of all time..incredibly genuine nice guy
Very good drummer. Cool dude. ROCK On Dave!
Dave's talent and impact is huge. One of my favorite bands is Grip Incorporated. He's rare that he has tremendous speed but also groove.
One of the most powerful and unique drummers in the world.
I remember reading an article where even Danny of Tool was giving him praise.
Such a legend.
Dave was the best Slayer drummer, rock on Mr Lombardo!
'Wings Of Fire' or 'Slayer'.......we went ahead and chose Slayer!
Smart decision! Very very very smart!!!!!
You have earned EVERYTHING you've worked for!!
I can tell... see.. in your eyes, pain.
memories haunting.
Whatever the case.
You!!! Mr. Lombardo...are the fucking MAN!
Slayer would never have been...without you!!!!!
I am Grateful!! to have seen you live!!! Not to take away from the Slayer fold...but you rule.
It takes that Backbone to hold a song together!
You are it!!!
Dave is maybe bigger then Slayer itself
I always felt the same way honestly
As a big fan of Slayer, I concur. I love Paul and his drumming in Divine Intervention is something pretty unique, but this dude is the reason why they made a difference in the 80s.
Bostaph is a hell of a drummer. And I would venture to say he’s probably technically better. But no one hits like Lombardo! He’s just a fucking beast. I prefer Lombardo personally. It just feels more furious and passionate. The same reasons I prefer Dimebag over Marty Friedman. They just seem like the really mean it when they play. And too me, that’s metal as fuck 🤘🏻
I think Dave is better al the way aroundl
While I do agree with you I still think Paul bostaph can be intense and furious as well. That concert at monsters of rock in 92 pretty much proves it
Dave hits hard and his time changes are razor sharp.
I'm not a big fan of drummers but this man is a genius. He is talented and there is something about his drumming that I find absolutely amazing and unique.
I listened to Dave play in ALL his projects. Grip Inc., Vivaldi tribute, and even bought his instructional booklet and cd.
Dave Lombardo is awesome
This is THE Dave Lombardo. What a legend - taking time for interviews from the younger crew and just being awesome.
Dave always seems such a humble likeable dude. Incredible drummer and a lovely guy. And of course Slayer without Lombardo isn't Slayer . Much love to you Dave 🙂
When Dave said Sinister, I was thinking of the death metal band from The Netherlands.
Jack The-Ripper lol same here
Yep same here
Also was a glam rock band from the strip in hollywood - same place mortley crue went to
One of the nicest guys around !
I met Dave around 95'. He was playing in grip inc. I also met Pete Sandoval from morbid angel that nite....good times
My two favorites
Dave is the best drummer in the world. he created such a unique beat, that fits to such a fast pacedmusic, it's like he hits the drums twice as much as the avg drummer, the beats leading up to guitar in Seasons in the Abyss is a good example, He can hear the opposite side of a regular drum beat and end perfectly where the riff starts. He is a drum god.
Lombardo dropping by Kerry's house was the best thing that ever happened to Slayer
Awesome when a son and a father can sit down and interview eachother!
Best drummer ever.
True legend and his humble attitude makes him more valuable.
It's a shame that those problems between King and him (Dave) killed part of Slayer, and Dave, that helped founding the band, is not there anymore. He is a great guy and a great drummer.
