Cliff was great. And Lars kinda sucks. But
Lars accidentally invented speed thrash metal so
Give Lars a break man.
Edit: canonically, Lars was a mediocre drummer with a ton of common bad drummer habits. Notably he sped up a lot when he was excited or nervous. Metallica, being a bunch of insecure alpha male bros refused to complain that it was too fast out of fear they’d be seen as ninnies by the others so they just went with it. Speed metal was born. Thrash metal. Whatever you wanna call it. It’s a fun story.
Every drummer I know thinks Lars sucks. But Lars has influenced every drummer I know more than they realize.
Lars did what now?
2 metalheads arguing about not just genre but origins of a genre?
I need some popcorn.
Apparently OP has never heard Motorhead or any of the NWOBHM bands.
No they stole the sound from Anvil like literally every other band of the day.
He’s such a little turd though
