I don't think anybody can replace Lombardo. He's amazing and while Portnoy can play his parts, there's just something special about the way Dave plays them.
This is because only he can be him. Those tracks are engraved in our memories with his swing and agression on it, so, even if there are many way better skillled drummers, they will not be able to copy that swing from the records.
@@moveover76 I'm not the biggest Portnoy fan, but I guarantee he can play Angel of Death. Its not that fast for a modern drummer (~215 bpm 16ths on the fastest double bass runs). And Mike is plenty quick. Whether he can be as consistent and powerful as Lombardo is another story entirely, but Angel is not the most complex song in Slayer's catalog. Mike's work in DT has many examples of fast single strokes and double bass patterns. And, being the fanboy that he is, probably covered this song 100s of times growing up.
Kratos Uchiha they??? We all love metal and metalheads man do not try to divide , I love metallica and slayer seen them both in 90’s many times.. call me old but do not divide
@@oldmanuserphan no Dave does not EVER use triggers... I def know what triggers are as i have used them in the past and Dave is a flag bearer for the no triggers movement. He has always said a good sound man can get you that snap on your bass drums with good eq and mic placement. Listen to his bass drums dude they are barely even dampered. He like them as wide open and booming as possible. That sound is the exact OPPOSITE of the robotic sound of triggered drums. Are you a drummer? If so for how long? You should not generalize something like that. Real drummers get upset when you don't speak from knowledge.
@ 01:26 Drumstick get's brocken and past away behind Dave !!! He takes a new one so fast that people did not see or hear that. His cymbal gets out for 3 seconds. Total Thrash Metal Drum Goat ! Mr. Dave Lombardo !!!
I love Paul. Great drummer, teacher, musician. But this can't be denied - Dave, at his age, still plays like he's attacking the drumset. THE thrash drummer, never to be topped.
Dave lomardo is my generatons...Keith moon. Absolutely amazing 👏 I'm still in awe at how freaking great of a drummer he is. Unless you play the drums... you don't know or understand the song angel of death, the drummer carries the song. Wow !!!
Love how broke the stick threw to the back and grabbed the other stick without missing a beat at approx.1:28!! Dave is a beast and it was too bad he didn't get to play the last show with Slayer!!🤘🤘
@@omarrodriguez4237 yeah I think it started around then. And that's where the stick broke then he threw it to the back and smoothly grabbed a new one!!😀
Those guys all grew up worshipping Dave---I doubt Dave would have been nervous around them. Maybe if they were up on stage and Dave was watching them, they'd be nervous.
i think one day all of daves bass drums are going to get together and start a class action law suit for the extreme physical abuse he has put them through
Q1. Are there 'better' and more technically proficient drummers out there? A1. Yes. Q2. Can any of them come close to absolute fucking savagery of Lombardo? A2. No.
Igor Cavalera (or however he spells Igor nowadays). Hardest hitting drummer I've ever seen. Eloy Casagrande (his replacement in Sepultura) also beats the living hell out of his kit.
@@blppt Being savage doesn't necessarily mean hitting hard. It's creating the appropriate brutal fills and playing energetically. Bostaph is very precise and is no slouch, but Dave's creativity and punkish aggression is unmatched. If anything, Slayer should've stuck with Jon Dette.
@@hugolafhugolaf I think Dave is the best fit and has the precision with speed and groove. Let's not forget he wrote the drum parts for their most legendary work.
I've seen this performance on many different channels ,from behind the drum riser, the left and now the right , it never ceases to amaze me at how natural Dave's playing ability is , if you are a musician and you watch Dave perform this ,if it doesn't impress you at his technical abilities ,speed and the power he hits and kicks this drums at then you know nothing of playing live , Dave lombardo is one of the main reason we now have super fast extreme metal drumming ,
Now that’s what I’m talking about Dave Lombardo love that double bass part on Angel of Death, and Mike Portnoy found it hilarious in the background air drumming but hey The Godfather of double bass drums is the best 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Other well known musicians are at the back stage, nerding out like a bunch of fans. So awesome. I would love to spend a whole show behind Dave, i want to see that power, speed and precision up close.
You can tell that Dave still really enjoys playing these songs. Cool to get to see him play them without all the drama of Slayer-Lite starring Kerry Gene Simmons King & Tom Araya
i wish they released the the Original Misfits show drum cams, probably cant cause Danzig wont allow it. Dave has proven to be one of the greatest drummers time and time again. Just incredible!
No Backwards cap, definitely not Dave Lombardo! Nah, but in all seriousness, great to see my favourite drummer still playing my favourite slayer song! Rock on Dave! also seeing Portnoy air-drumming in the background pretty much says it all! XDD
He is an inspiration to all the drummers now , legend,an icon , impossible to copy ,the is only one Dave Lombardo,the best drummer in the world and metal music history
Dave's a big part of Slayer's history. Sad to see how he and Slayer parted but that's part of life's journey. He seems to be doing fine now and I wish him all the best!
Kinda sad Dave wasn't able to play the last Slayer show but this video is a blessing on all of us Slayer fans Dave Lombardo fans and thrash metal fans in general.
I could watch every drum cam video of Dave Lombardo and be like a little kid watching him for the first time, awe inspiring ❤ Lombardo is benchmark 🥁🤘🏾
What a masterful performance! World Class Talent! Always heard the thrash drumming since the record came out but did not appreciate the physical ability it takes to get this sound. I am so glad the Mr. Lombardo, after his tome in Slayer, has landed on his drum set! Thrash on!
Fuckin guy is and ALWAYS will be a legend!🔥🤘🤘 His playing just gets faster and tighter with time. His high-hat isn’t even able to catch up to his tempo!😂🤣 BEAST!
Such a human feel! The tempo actually speeds up a hair rather than slows down like other players have to do. Check for yourself and compare the beginning to the end of the video.
How does he manage to just get better and better with age when a lot of drummers around this age start to really noticeably struggle? All those videos of him playing from the last few years he was in Slayer were incredible.. but this is just as good if not better. I would say his double bass somehow sounds even more solid. Incredible feel with the slow parts and fills as always.... amazing.
The funniest part about this is seeing Mike Portnoy air drumming in the background lol
Hahaha I came to do the same comment lol
Mike could replace Lombardo in SLAYER. ;)
I don't think anybody can replace Lombardo. He's amazing and while Portnoy can play his parts, there's just something special about the way Dave plays them.
@@Aetherial-Gamer Totally agree with you sir Lombardo is one of the best metal drummer of all time

Mike is fangirling so hard
Can’t blame him, Greatest thrash drummer of all time playing greatest thrash song of all time!
Yeah he is, wishing he could play half that speed lol
@@moveover76 I'm not the biggest Portnoy fan, but I guarantee he can play Angel of Death. Its not that fast for a modern drummer (~215 bpm 16ths on the fastest double bass runs).

The man is nearly 55 but he still plays like he's 21 again. Such a legend!
Tell that to Metallica fans please
Santy Metalhead they cant accept it
Kratos Uchiha they??? We all love metal and metalheads man do not try to divide , I love metallica and slayer seen them both in 90’s many times.. call me old but do not divide
LarsUlrich26 Ulrich calm down dude, its a joke
Kratos Uchiha oh ok..
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: THE GOAT!
THAT STICK DIDN'T HAVE A FUCKEN CHANCE!!!!
You know his drum kit must feel like a rental
Hahaha
Breaks a stick, tosses it and grabs another without missing a beat
Yeah! For "instant replay", here's a timecode that gives the viewer some seconds to focus before it happens: 1:17
As a fellow drummer, thats our job lol
T-boneSlice hell in drumline we had to had at least 2-3 pairs of sticks in the bag 😂
But he missed some beats.... impossible not to.
Slayer died after Jeff & Dave were not in the picture!
Good to see Dave jamming some Slayer again
Is that Portnoy air drumming and jamming out in the back? Lovin it!
He enjoy the playing like us haha
Hell yeah it´s him :D !
I just noteced after you mentioned.
Dave “AK-47” lombardo
Dave fuckin machinegun mg42 lombardo
Not to be confused with Raymond "Metronome" Herrera.

@@DixieWhiskey haven't heard that name for a long time.....hope he makes a comeback (i don't care which band, as long it is extreme metal)
😢
This is old school double bass, no triggers or samples needed.
hell yeah, i love old head gatekeeping
They use triggers on the bass though. All metal bands use triggers on the bass. Maybe you don't know what triggers are.
@@oldmanuserphan no Dave does not EVER use triggers... I def know what triggers are as i have used them in the past and Dave is a flag bearer for the no triggers movement.

@ He's right, Double bass is so inorganic in prog and djent I bores me to death.
@@oldmanuserphan you don't know what you're talking about
lombardo have this kind of pure madness and energy , slayer never was the same witouth him
Dave is a beast! I love seeing Mike Portnoy airdrumming in the back.
@WhoDarestheMAN gamer Okay well who cares? Dave is still an incredible drummer in his own right.
Né
Dang! Broke his stick at 1:27 and didn’t miss a beat. Suicidal is very lucky to have Lombardo. He makes them sound classic.
4:38 the Moment you all have been waiting for
I've been looking forward to this 🤘
In the words of Ivan Drago: “He’s not human, he’s like a piece of iron “
Ya
Mike Portnoy air drumming and Chuck Billy filming him - priceless!
It literally says filmed by the Stage Crew in the Description
@@jorozco13yearsago40 the other guy
@@jorozco13yearsago40 Look over Lombardo's shoulder at around the 1:55 mark. You'll see Chuck standing there in the light
@@muttonmark is that Andreas Kisser with them as well?
Nobody can replace Dave in Slayer. It's fucking incredible how he is still able to "swing" while hitting hard at this speed.
Holy shit! That’s it. How didn’t I notice that all these years. You just blew my mind sir. Good observation
the only reason I can think of is that he's part Cuban. They are legends in the world of percussion.
Wait. Iam practicing!
Ywah growing up i always thought his drumming was off..until understood swinging. I call it breathing
@@Darylrb1983 there's a diffrence between off and laidback. Dave is laidback and swinging, Lars Ulrich is off.
@ 01:26 Drumstick get's brocken and past away behind Dave !!! He takes a new one so fast that people did not see or hear that. His cymbal gets out for 3 seconds. Total Thrash Metal Drum Goat ! Mr. Dave Lombardo !!!
Now that's the way you play Angel of death. Dave even snapped a drum stick and still keeped it going. What a man.
I love how Dave's drumming is literally making the camera shake like there's an earthquake going on.
I like Bostaph, but Dave's energy is totally unmatched.....
sulphur77 bostaph sucks tbh
u serious rite now ?
ツozzykilian ridiculous statement.
I love Paul. Great drummer, teacher, musician. But this can't be denied - Dave, at his age, still plays like he's attacking the drumset. THE thrash drummer, never to be topped.
Dave is superior
god bless you who ever repositioned the camera on his feet
The way its supposed to be played! Dave is Badass!!
yeah, Some drummers geting old dont affect their drumming quality, like Dave... 55 but still blasting (i am including Gene Hoglan also)
His playing is the yardstick that every other speed thrash drummer measures by. No triggers. Incredible speed. Taste. Feel. Just a beast.
Dave lomardo is my generatons...Keith moon. Absolutely amazing 👏 I'm still in awe at how freaking great of a drummer he is. Unless you play the drums... you don't know or understand the song angel of death, the drummer carries the song. Wow !!!
Drum sticks break just hearing Lombardo’s name.
Metal drumming back then was about brutality and making the guitar riffs sound even better. Dave is a pioneer in this.
This guy is a legend, Much respect to the mighty Dave Lombardo
ONE OF THE TOP FIVE BEST DRUMMERS EVER.
Man he still killing it after 38 yrs thts awsome
Love how broke the stick threw to the back and grabbed the other stick without missing a beat at approx.1:28!! Dave is a beast and it was too bad he didn't get to play the last show with Slayer!!🤘🤘

Man.. Dave is a legend and deserves more than nobody to be the living SLAYER symbol.
I'd be nervous having so much metal royalty watching me from the side of the stage! Then again they're probably just friends in Dave's eyes!
Those guys all grew up worshipping Dave---I doubt Dave would have been nervous around them. Maybe if they were up on stage and Dave was watching them, they'd be nervous.
@@blppt I concur with that.
Theyre friends and fans lol

Igor Cavalera (or however he spells Igor nowadays). Hardest hitting drummer I've ever seen.
Eloy Casagrande (his replacement in Sepultura) also beats the living hell out of his kit.
Can't exclude Gene Hoglan. That man is a total beast!

The word legend is thrown about too often. But when it's used to describe Dave Lombardo it's accurate.
he's so good all I can do is just laugh when I watch him - the creativity, speed, accuracy and all with groove - he's total class
To be playing that long and still killing it is amazing! Some drummers get old and tired but Dave just keeps on going!
1:25... when you Dave Lombardo and the sticks can't handle the bad ass drumming. damn the man is a legend !!
Godfather of double bass period.!!!
Dave is a total SAVAGE!! I love when his stick broke (damn near in half!!) and he didn't seem to realize it. Lots of power!!
if you make Mike Portnoy go Air Drumming with your performance, you're a f*cking legend
Slayer wasn’t Slayer anymore when Lombardo was cast out. Still thrashing!!! Excellent job Dave!!
Now that’s what I’m talking about Dave Lombardo love that double bass part on Angel of Death, and Mike Portnoy found it hilarious in the background air drumming but hey The Godfather of double bass drums is the best 🤘🏻🤘🏻
The Godfather of double bass is Philthy Animal Taylor

Impossible not to headbang while listening to Dave, or just watching him. THE metal drummer.

There can be only one Slayer Skinsman.
Its amazing to see Dave and Mike together

I love how he breaks the drumstick and casually just grabs the other one without skipping a beat!
I love how Mike's geeking out.
All around, the greatest of all time. His fills are absolutely iconic.
Dave is and will always be the man.
One word ! THUNDER . Dave is the alpha and the omega of all metal drummers .
I mean..come on!!🙏...no one can play Slayer like Dave...they never sounded right after he left!

F-ing great. Dave Lombardo has been my biggest influence since I started playing over 30 years ago
The power.. the kicks are incredibly even and clean.
Super precise but still manages to sound organic... What a rare combination, legend!

Holy shit Dave Lombardo still kicking ass on the drums. Hes not retired that's for sure.
The hardest working man in showbiz!!
You know you're a GOAT when another GOAT is air drumming to your tunes🙈
Behold THE MASTER!!!!!
Mike Muir of Suicidal Tendencies is so happy to have Dave in his band. Since then ST is stronger than ever. Here you see why.
An octopus with drum sticks!! Love it!!
Best drummer of all time hands down

Monster of rock. Dave Lombardo is the best
