- Interview with Metallica's Lars Ulrich. And Mick Wall getting it all wrong by not knowing (or forgetting?) Metallica's Kill 'em All. Heresy ;-)
(1986 Monsters of Rock, Sky Channel)
Lars is only 23 years here yet so mature and in controll of everything. He really is a genius and a visionary
he was actually 22 back then.....
this is actual a decent interview of Lars, he is still humble here, cause the fame really hasn't hit yet. He is having a conversation and a dialogue... it's great
This comment is a great example of "stupid opinions". Thanks for trying :)
@@wallywalpamur4960 it’s a very true statement….
@@larsswig9339 not really.... There are earlier videos of him being a complete ass.
@@larsswig9339 Lars' wig

wow before master of puppets was released? little did they know their little album would go on to be one of the greatest heavy metal albums in history.
Not better than Sabbath's first album though >_>
Ok, I guess that's a far comment to make.
Its fun to see cause its sort of hars to find these early 80s interviews
@@Leo2112Lion yeah right Sabbath blows
Lars hasn't changed a bit after all these years.
just the hair
Lol
Love these old interviews!
/w\RIP-Bro/w\ Thanks for the Slayer World Painted Blood Lesson
So boss to see these gems bro !!
Those are some sick Nike's Lars has
+Josh Houston was thinking the same thing. your profile pic is sick too
+quantumrift11 thanks
anyone know what they are?
Ben Lawrence I believe they are the jordan "bred" 1's, they were banned from the nba at the time ,but that made them more popular in the long run.
@@upmarketcrayon A bit late but Air Jordan 1 "Chicago" colorway
I wonder if Lars had any idea what he was about to release. The influence of MOP will never end.
Prob. my favorite era of Lars here next to Black Album era. He's just too stinkin' cute and that accent is so sexy
Also, why is it that with every Lars vid I come across, the comment section is filled to the brim with testosterone
Its a scandinavian accent .
Danish
Learned how to play the guitar by learning this entire album back in the day. The intro solo to "Sanitarium" was the first guitar solo I ever played and the first time I thought "hey I can do this!!!!". Brilliant album. Don't really listen to Metallica any more but I will always view MOP as a masterpiece.
If they did a music video for Master Of Puppets it would be fucking awesome.
It's videos like this that make me very happy with the internet!
I was born in '86. Master of Puppets, Reign in Blood and Peace Sell but Who's Buying? were all released that year. I think it was an omen ;)
Lars mentioned the dublin show as the start of the tour - i was at that show at the sfx hall - a sunday night i do believe - anthrax opening - james singing - he was in plaster cast from breaking his wrist - jim marshall his roadie played the guitar that night - he appeared to be gettin on for 7 feet tall lol - seeing cliff alive and well - a little over a week before his tragic death - will stay with me forever
my brothers & sister's wouldn't let me watch this ' Shit ' heavy metal show cause it clashed with Top of the Pops so I had to get up 1am to watch the repeats on school days
Lars high on weed... great! AND FOR THOSE WHO SAY METALLICA SOLD OUT, you should listen to his words on this video and actually through out their career all members always agreed to do what they like to do and NEVER CONSIDERED THEMSELVES a TRASH METAL BAND.. that music style is only in your heads Metallica is Metallica and they liked to play music, that is the reason I also like their 90s stuff because the music is great,.. I dont care if is different from what they did in the past I just care about the music they make.
They might have said they're not a thrash metal band but they were very young and very naive back then, albeit pioneers who made legendary albums. But you have to put music in some sort of category and "thrash" seemed to fit the definition the best for their music at the time. Also, they DID totally sell out in the 90s. They collectively cut their hair, put on eyeliner and changed their music to fit in better with what was popular at the time. That's textbook selling out. Now with that being said, I personally do not blame them and I think it was something that was inevitable for them, and besides, they had already given us 5 classic albums by that point.
I was there when thrash metal emerged in the early 80's, the music of metallica was so inspiring ..and powerful ..I loved to listen to what Lars used to say those days.,i have heard many time James saying that he was there just for the music (like Cliff ) ..and i guess he was telling the truth .but when time passed by I felt by listening to him (Lars) that the only one that was playing metal just only for money from the very begining was him...he was just a front. ..and that is sad...that's why Metallica died after Justice for all.
So you think Lars has done all this only for the money? Then I think you should read some more of their story. It's simply not that way.
philip2112, thank you! I'm always on the lookout on RUclips for Metallica footage from their 1983-1986 period. This is the first new vid I've seen in a long time.
And I see from the sidebar you have a Slayer 1986 interview as well. Dude, you rule. There just isn't enough footage of these thrash bands in their prime.
30 years to the day
So fucking cool! Lars is so mellow and grown-up here, for being only 22. Maybe he has changed somewhat on the surface, but I'll say he's a great guy!
I like the way he smiles :)
@qu7aker Well you have to remember Kill Em All was released on a independent label so by 1986 it was basically out of print. So to many people Ride The Lightning was the first album they had access to because it was released on Elecktra records. In 1988 Kill Em All was rereleased on Elecktra records
@diegoaer Yes, Cliff was still alive at this point, he died on the 13th day of the tour.
This is an awesome video... thanks for sharing! This is brilliant stuff! Even back in 1986 - before the release of MOP - Lars specifically said that they were not "just" thrash... incredibly, people still were surprised they changed sound over the years...
I think Metallica and Lars gave people a fair warning... hehe!
Good stuff!
Cheers
Lars grew up listening Colthrane, Hendrix, Huge fan of Deep Purple, Status Quo, The Sweet, Black Sabbath , Thin Lizzy, Judas Priest, Budgie...
Look at the albums thoses guys did.
Same with Venom or Celtic frost, thats a 70's mentality.
Only thrash crowds think thoses bands were mono inspirations brutal metal.
does it seem like lars is high?
He's stoned as hell
sad when he said the European leg of tour started September 14 12 days later cliff died RIP Cliff
13 days later. 😉
man i cant wait to hear that new album. hope its as good as the last one!
A music video for Master of Puppets? Imagine if that had happened. Which song would it have been? What would the video been like?
Mick Wall not knowing his arse from his elbow about Metallica is typical for a Kerrang writer at this time.They really didn't want to know anything about Thrash and rubbished it at every opportunity because it wasn't their beloved Iron Maiden! Then it got popular and they pretended that they championed the scene from the start. Now he's writing books about Metallica as if he's some expert.
I really miss that Lars, he was a good guy.
His danish accent here sounds soo awesome. Nowadays he sounds with a danish-american accent, it's not the same:(
It is sad when you think about the tour he is talking about was Cliff Burton's last.
I wish I could go back in time and stop it somehow. Definition of tragedy man. ),:
And sadly that was also the year that we lost the Major Rager, Cliff Burton!
@Docteur666 Thanks doctor! I was actually referring to the TV show "Monsters of Rock", where the interview comes from.
Holy shit been a met fan since early 90s. Never seen Lars wear a pair of Js....awesome
I learned to play guitar years ago by leaning all the Metallica stuff. They were my driving force, and in fact I didn't really break away from playing metallica for a long time.
homie thought ride the lightning was their first album???? Lars played that soooooooo cool!!!! He didn't let it phase him! 😂
Cliff died shortly after this interview....WOW! Still cool (BC I was born in 82) to see this interview....old Metallica is the best music EVER!! \m/
no bitch, this interview was before master of puppets was released. Cliff didnt die shortly after the album being released
Mick Wall is a great interviewer
wait, they were thinking of making a video for MoP?! Why the fuck didn't they record it?!
He is in his early 20s here and says, yeah we are going to release master of puppets. Man most people at that age are not even that close
@dungeonvic There are some clips out there from 87 (Donington, England), and Monsters of rock-tour (US, summer of 88)
Mustaine was no doubt a key factor with the birth of Metallica. However, in my opinion their strongest songs came when Burton, Hammett, Hetfield, and Ulrich started to collaborate their ideas.
Master of deluxe weed...🤟👍
I have a relative who looks a lot like Lars Ulrich and sounds a lot like James Hetfield, lol.
When we were in elementary school he would usually spend all day singing silly lyrics and acting like a clown at his desk when there were no teachers around.
And yes, he is a huge Metallica fan, AND a drummer. xD
..interesting that the interviewer mentions death metal This was filmed obviously before March 1986 when death metal would have had its beginnings.
Lars say's it here and in many different interviews during the 80s that metallica is not thrash/speed metal they are just metallica!!! He has also said that metallica will not be confined to these types of labels and that if something sounds good to them and they like it they will go in that direction regardless if the fans like it or not!!!!!!! People wake up the black album wasn't a big suprise and metallica didn't sell out!!! You bought their albums u sold them out !!!!
Thats because he grew up with Purple , Status quo , Sabb , Sweet , Priest ....mercyful fate compatriots ...
He s european .
Extreme metal fans don't get that .
Same thing with Celtic frost and stuff when they elvolved more open .
Because thats the way bands they listened to worked as well.
Same
Lars Ulrich

@elocrimonium Yes, he died on the puppets tour later in 1986...
wtf? lm a huge metallica fan and this is the first time i see this interview after listening and watching everything about them on youtube for 4 years :O haha wtf!
Look up “Cliff Burton Maxwell Tapes”
@bretzagar i kinda see your point but james has even said a lot of the riffs from those albums cliff wrote and lars just mostly helped with the arrangements and song structures, cliff had the most ''fuck you'' attitude of any of them, he was the biggest presence of that band, if the black album would have been a complete failure, they woulda went back to ripping our faces off
You noticed he played Motley Crue at the end after not getting all of the Metallica facts right.....
Cool shoes for such a little man
I've been searching for those Monster of Rock shows forever! Is there any chance those can be made into a torrent or something?
I used to watch those back then, had the VHS compilation like most kids at the time and I would love to see that again, the tape has been lost since forever...
I would have loved to see a Metallica video made when Cliff was in the Band. Just to see what they would have come up with and what song they would have made a video too.
See the VHS Cliff'Em All
edit: oh you meant professional music video, lol... nevermind
@@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS yep. Got Cliff 'Em All.
Did he say: "Master of puppets your second album"? hahaha xD
@fortheloveoftunes it didnt come out in 87.. justice wasnt even out yet.. it was released in 1989
@DyingBreedThrash Auch! Right got it wrong but you´re wrong too dude released aug. 1988 and "One" (video) jan. 20, 1989 .-)
I wanna kiss his face he looks cute
I guess the song they wouldve done a vid for is Master. Wonder why that didn't pan out?
@DyingBreedThrash i meant the video was released in 89, i know when justice came out
he probably meant second on elektra and was most likely unaware of kill em all. he doest seem too informed
Lol at how they played motley crue after the interview.
A few days before the story was rewritten!!!
I wonder what song off MOP wouldve had the video?
Did that guy just ask if the Master Of Puppets album was as hardcore or heavy??..... This is the first time I have ever said "Da Faq!?" out loud.
Nobody noticing how cool Lars' Nike's are?
Lars looks just like me back in 86
Is that Mick Wall?
is it still hardcore, heavy? its the best f*****g album of all time.
and I believe that’s the tour of the accident...😔😔
i think lars would not have liked that right after his interview they played a Motley Crue video and that was the band that they kind of despised.
yes
Probably because Cliff died and the band was grieving... while in the middle of a massive tour.
Yup.
Does anyone know what kind of Nikes lars is wearing?
at that time cliff was alive???
Yes...
MetallicA!!!!!!
@addelithoe Yep... Back when Metallica was always baked
damn lars is so cute
this interview was before that cliff dies?
What crawled out at the end of the interview??
Master of Puppets is one of the greatest albums of all time. Never mind all the Metallica haters... Trash doesn't get any better than Master of Puppets.
Was this before or after cliffs death?
Before
Really? Load? ReLoad? Metallica? Justice?... I mean, anything since Master is hardly if at all thrash. Unless you are joking and you stopped listening to the band in 86
how come lars isn't eating? :)))
@BBOZ83 i agree
justice i'd say is thrash, definitely not as crazy as kill em all but after that i think Metallica went more traditional heavy metal and hard rock, Death Magnetic though was heavy not quite thrash but i like the new direction.
If anyone has any full episodes of SKY's Monsters Of Rock with Mick Wall hosting, or MTV's Metal Hammer show with The Bailey Brothers hosting on DVD-R or VHS, please contact me at: EvilDeadRules99@Hotmail.com
I would be willing to buy copies, or trade. But please no LP Mode DVD-R stuff. I'm looking for at least SP Mode (recorded with a standalone DVD Recorder) and preferably XP Mode (otherwise known as HQ Mode, or Highest Quality, 1-Hour Mode).
There is already 11-Discs up online of some chopped up shows, I have that, and I'm looking for full shows. Commercials included would be great, but as long as the interviews and music videos are intact that would be fine.
I've got a huge trade list, so if you're willing to trade, I'll send it to you and we can work something out.
Thanks!
@THRASHM3TAL2011 How do you know? James would still form a good band at some point.
lotta smiles here ...... the richer he got, the less he smiles/
Now the band does the complete opposite and makes a video for every song on the album. WTF?
they didn't do a video for Puppets!!!!
It's not Metallica. It's just Lars.
i still have every single (80s) album..........the picture discs...theres no cover, the cover is printed on the vinyl itself :D (kill em all, ride the lightning, master of puppets, creeping death and a limited edition one with only 2 tracks on it) i bet i could sell em for decent money today :D
@DyingBreedThrash Come again?
