Blabbermouth posted an excerpt of an interview with Slayer’s Dave Lombardo from Rhythm Magazine. Here is a short part of it where Dave Lombard says that he could teach Lars a few things.

Rhythm: Playing with METALLICA at Download in 2004 must have been quite an experience.

Lombardo: “Yeah. Show ‘em how it’s done! No disrespect to Lars [Ulrich], because Lars is great and he’s a very nice guy, but he needs to spend a week at my house and we need to sit down and play. I could show him — ‘No, Lars, like this!’… ‘Let’s chill, let’s relax, have some coffee and let’s play!’ Hahahahaha!”

While we’re at it let’s have Dave Mustaine teach Kirk a thing or two about leads and Tom Araya re-teach Jamez how to sing raw and gritty again. Then perhaps we can have another listinable Metallica record. I think Lars is way too busy trying to remember the good old days of “Bonding” with “friends in bathroom stalls.

Kirk is still a great guitar player but his style has grown old and annoying. Almost as annoying as James’ vocals when he tries to sing old classic Metallica songs all ‘purty’ and shit. I can’t say shit about Rob because he’s a tight bass player, even though I believe he had a great influence on the “crab-core’ retards.
