@@2000jago If you take into account the pioneering aspect of it I reckon it'd be even higher; Dave completely reinvented the drum fill while playing at absurd speeds WITHOUT cheating on the hats. Everyone else does a great job of keeping up and creating an awesomely dark atmosphere but when you listen to Divine Intervention that darkness is gone. He's arguably a 'lead drummer' in a way, not unlike Dale Crover or Mitch Mitchell.
Back in the mid nineteen when Grip Inc. was on tour with Morbid Angel Dave just finished his set with Grip. As he was walking back stage I was in the front row (with a Slayer cap) yelling “Dave, play a drum solo!!!!”. I figure he didn’t hear me so I turned around to bullshit with a buddy and a moment later I hear “should I do it?”. Lo and behold Dave heard me. Naturally I yelled “F’ yea!!!” As did everyone around me once they figured out what was happening. Dave looks at me and says “this is for you…”, he got back up on stage behind his set and ripped out a drum solo. That was the highlight of my musical life, Dave dedicating a solo to me. I will leave this earth a happy mofo because Dave F’n Lombardo dedicated a solo to me! Thank you Dave!!! (RIP Gus)
Dave is so humble, when Jeff passed and left SLAYER, I messaged him with condolences and he messaged back a couple of times with many thanks, like who does that??? Dave's the GOAT
Agreed. Dave deserves proper recognition financially wise, compatible to his gigantic contribution to Slayer sound and Metal as a whole. Without Dave, Slayer woudn't be the same iconic behemoth they have turned into.
Lombardo was as vital to Slayer as Bonham was vital to Led Zeppelin. His performances both on record and live, the tuning of his drums, his percussive creativity staggered me way back in 1983 when I first heard and purchased Show No Mercy on cassette and eventually on vinyl. 40 F-ing years has sped on by and he still remains phenomenal and relevant, and is much appreciated in the rock and metal world. Pretty killer.
This is Rick Beato level of amazing. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, SAM. Whether you want it or not, that anthropology background is going to drag you into historian territory. Longer interviews. Save this for us metal heads that need this recorded and saved. Future generations need this information and it's incredibly important to record this. Years from now some drummer, fighting through depression, anger and resentment will stumble upon this, and Dave's articulate voice will help him. You are a shepherd and now a steward. Use that presence wisely my friend.
I’ve been listening to South of Heaven quite a bit lately…I think it’s Slayer’s best album because of the variety of tones and tempos. Obviously Slayer should be hard and fast, but I love some of the slower, spookier, more melodic aspects of SoH. And it’s Dave’s masterwork…the fills all over that album are simply jaw-dropping.
He is literally THE founding father of heavy metal drumming for everything that came after him. That badass driving double bass they like to call "blast-beats" now, Dave cast the die on that shit. It's all over Slayer's greatest hits, but a great example is "Silent Scream" from South Of Heaven. It goes through the intro, then the double bass just starts driving so hard it rips your face off. THROUGH THE WHOLE SONG. There will never be another Dave Lombardo.
@@JohnWayne-vf5bs Yep, and he’s dead. Zeppelin was my favorite band as a kid. Then I discovered Slayer at about age 17. They became my favorite. So Dave is my favorite living drummer, Bonham is my favorite dead drummer, followed by Keith Moon.
@@JohnWayne-vf5bs Yes, not like a super fan but yeah… I like most genres of music. Thrash is probably my favorite though… I’ve recently been listening to Anthrax pretty hard.
Randomly ran into Dave at Disneyland about 17 years ago when i was 14 or so, I recognized him immediately, he was just hanging out by himself waiting for someone, i walked up to him and introduced myself an kindof fanboy'd out a lil, he was cool as could be and took a picture with me. Literally made my entire trip. Still got that picture somewhere. Lombardo is the homie!
Funny, I saw him at Disneyland as well, it was Valentine's Day 2013 and he was with his lady, so I didn't interrupt, but I regret not showing my respect.
Ghost of War is a total master piece. Every time people talk about it, I almost cry of love, this song is AMAZING. Thanks Dave for everything you've done with SLAYERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
Lombardo might have one of the most distinctive playing styles of any drummer in metal. You can instantly tell if it’s Lombardo fill when you hear it. Awesome interview!
You’re right!! I was at a music festival two years ago where Dave had played in three different bands in one night. It was Suicidal Tendencies, Body Count and The Misfits. And this was before I found out it was him, but the way the drums were being played man I was like that sounds like fucking Dave’s style.
This guy is one of my musical heroes. My #1 favorite drummer for sure. It’s so cool to see his interviews and find that he is “just” a human being, because when he plays he is like some supernatural being.
Dave Lombard is the man. Slayer fan since the early/mid 80's. Bummed that he's been jacked around a bit from the Slayer camp, but proud he's kept his head held high and kept doing what he does. Mad respect! Great interview Sam!
In retrospect, the falling out with Slayer seems to have turned out well for him as he's been able to showcase his versatility with a wide variety of bands. Amazing adaptability 🤘
Great interview dude. Slayer is my all time favorite metal band, and Dave definitely raised the bar for all metal drummers when he first came on the scene. Met the dude once, and he was super cool and humble. Lombardo is the man!
Slayer losing Lombardo was just so wrong to me. DAVE MADE SLAYER! No other band was so defined by their amazing drums like Slayer. I was still happy with Divine Intervention. But you know THE THING me and my drummer were doing when listening to Divine was COMPARING TO LOMBARDO.
Seasons in the Abyss has some damn tasty drumming too. Skeletons of Society has such a basic beat, but his fills at the end of each line are ridiculously groovy and take the whole thing to the next level.
I've been listening to South of Heaven since 1988 and to this day, no drum fills from any other drummer (with exception maybe to Neil Peart) gives me goosebumps like those of the legendary Dave Lombardo! Great interview Sam! We miss you on the channel man!
When I heard the album on its release, I hated it wholeheartedly (I was in the camp of Slayer fans, wanted them doing countless RiB type of albums). Then, I read the lyrics and it all made sense to me. SoH is, and probably will be, my second favourite Slayer album.

Eternal influence, great human being, undisputed master, thanks to him I am a drummer, I remember when in 2005 I saw the Dvd "Still Reigning" and immediately fell in love with Lombardo's drumming and I immediately made the decision to become a drummer and I never regret it. On the other hand I would like to share with you a little story. Dave Lombardo came in 2014 to Bogota, Colombia to a Drum Clinic and there was the possibility of "Meet and Greet". and I unfortunately had no money at that time, I told my mother the situation and she told me that she would lend me the money (which made me very happy) and as time went by, when I was going to pay her the money, she told me that no, don't worry, she was giving me the money as a gift. That is to say, because of my mother I was able to meet, hug and take a picture with Dave Lombardo. It was the best day of my life.
Sam Dunn: an authority interviewer, documenter, researcher and story teller of the bands and muscicians we love! A monster persoanlity and a necessity to know more about the artists we admire! Thank you for this interview Sam...always breaking ground on any of your projects! A true diamond the value that you bring to knowledge and legacy of these artists and music !!!!
Dave is the sweetest guy. It’s all about the music for him and I love that! One of my drumming heroes! He is known for his time with “Slayer” but he is so much more dynamic than thrash and speed! Super musician!
This man was a founding member of Slayer, designed their logo, defined their sound, got them signed to Def Jam and - along with Hanneman - was the most talented member.
@@mattbauckman9907 You get half-credit cuz you knew there was a connection there 🤘 but as a drummer I couldn't let it slide 🤣 Cheers to the rhythm section! 🥃🥃
Dave Lombardo is legend! His musicianship is so distinct, easily recognizable and inspiring. Above all, he is such a great individual. I really didn't want this interview to end. Thank you!
I've grown to really admire Dave, through Patton. I had the pleasure of meeting 4 of the guys from Mr. Bungle last month. The conversation I had with Dave was great and unforgettable!
Great that Dave acknowledged Biffy Clyro. A great band from the UK. Saw them live supporting Metallica. They got booed so badly because some idiots just wanted to watch Metallica perform. But, I'd say Biffy Clyro were one of the best international acts I had seen at the time. This was in 2011 I think. Stellar musicians.
This was a great interview, Kudos for not going after the "low hanging fruit questions " like Why you left Slayer, and do you still keep contact..and whatever. Very positive, informative, and reflecting on what he's doing since leaving Slayer...Excellent!!!
When they spoke about Ghosts of War I got goose bumps.. I discovered Slayer as a 10 year old back in 1987 . Thank you Dave and Slayer for putting me onto the right path in life.. the left hand path :)
When i saw Bungle recently in Australia Dave Lombardo was an absolute beast. Seen him with Slayer twice as well. But when i listen to Bungles Wrath album I'm listening to Dave. Fucking amazing player.
Thank-you "algorithm" for showing me this video. I remember Sam's documentary about metal across the decades/styles and now I can finally find out what it's call to rewatch it. After my google search it's called "Metal Evolution" and it played on VH1, if you haven't seen it you might like it especially if you are old school like me 😂 Dave Lombardo was the first fast drummer that I listened to (Slayer) and I'm glad after all the years he's still a cool dude without letting fame go to his head.
Great Interview. This guy is one of my favorite musicians ever. Doesn't matter what he does, I will always check it out. His performances in Slayer live were always jaw dropping.
So happy Dave is getting the recognition he solely deserves because he truly is an amazing drummer and person. Remember when he left Slayer I was so disappointed until I heard him in Grip Inc. and then they became my new favorite band. He is never afraid to challenge himself and one of the most creative drummers ever. I even remember reading an article where Danny Carey from Tool was talking about how creative Dave is as a musician.
Mad respect for the guy. Of course for being one of the most musical metal drummers ever, but maybe even more for being so humble and down to earth. More people should be like Dave.
It's so true what he says about feeling the same excitement regardless of what you're playing: whatever the genre, style, or tempo, if you're into playing and in the moment, it's fun and engrossing.
Great job ! Was lucky enough to meet him w/ GRIP INC. @ Alrosa Villa Columbus, Ohio. Great conversation, and I brought a drum head he signed for me that's still displayed in my house
Dave Lombardo is my biggest influence when it comes to playing drums. I've pushed myself to be able to play everything he's done. It made learning most other music easy
Dave Lombardo: an extraterrestrial far ahead of his generation. There were and are other exceptional drummers in Metal, but Lombardo has something very special and unique...
Great interview. Saw Mr Bungle in Montreal a couple of weeks ago and I couldn't stop thinking : this is Dave fucking Lombardo playing right in front of me. What a legend.
Dave's my favorite drummer and me being my favorite air drummer, Lombardo is by far my favorite drummer to air drum to. BTW Ghost Of War, great pick for on e of your favorite Slayer songs. Fun interview with a true Metal legend. Well done, Banger.
The most agressive , ridiculously fast but tasty drums we ever heard was getting that second album Hell Awaits when it came out the double bass solo like that was a first and he only kept getting better
There is a special relationship between drummer and guitarist. They are the bones of the band, they rehearse even when they don't have a fully formed band. I loved my drummer and we grew up together.
Great interview! way to go with the superb , intelligent queries... he is one of a kind as a percussionist and appears to be an awesome human being as well.
I had the honour of meeting Dave after a Suicidal show. He was super cool and incredibly generous with his time. My mate who was with me asked him about a Fantomas song bit and watching them drum nerd out was very cool.

Yeah this is great, hats off to you. It takes two to tango, Dave has a lot going on.
South of Heaven still stands the test of time. I love his drumming on that album!
Me too! I could listen to just the drum tracks without all the other instruments. It’s magical.

Behind the crooked cross
Same here everyone says Reign in Blood but South his drumming is insane the songs have space in them where he does these insane fills.
It’s outstanding. Still.
Ghosts of War breakdown is one of the most irresistible air-drumming moments in recorded music.
Word!!🤟🏽
That double bass fill in Angel of Death still gives me chills

Dave's my favorite drummer and me being my favorite air drummer, Lombardo is by far my favorite drummer to air drum to.
BTW Ghost Of War, great pick for on e of your favorite Slayer songs.
Fun interview with a true Metal legend.
Well done, Banger.
The most agressive , ridiculously fast but tasty drums we ever heard was getting that second album Hell Awaits when it came out the double bass solo like that was a first and he only kept getting better
one of the greatest interview in the history of music ever!
Dave Lombardo the #1 trash metal drummer 🔥
Man wow what a great interview so lucky to get an opportunity to interview Dave
I realize that this may just be a typo, but you're doing the genre no favors by referring to it as "trash"...
Dave’s talent + absolute love of music + super nice personality = amazing guy ❤
That first answer right there perfectly exemplifies what a quality musical artist Dave is.
The Goat. Period. There will never be another Dave Lombardo.
There is a special relationship between drummer and guitarist. They are the bones of the band, they rehearse even when they don't have a fully formed band. I loved my drummer and we grew up together.
Best drummer ever
Always good to see Papa Dunn back in front of the camera.
What a extraordinary pleasant, well paced, heavy interview! killer stuff Sam 🙌🙌🙌 🇨🇴
Great interview! way to go with the superb , intelligent queries... he is one of a kind as a percussionist and appears to be an awesome human being as well.
I had the honour of meeting Dave after a Suicidal show. He was super cool and incredibly generous with his time. My mate who was with me asked him about a Fantomas song bit and watching them drum nerd out was very cool.
