Play "One" On The Drums | 5 Levels

"One" by Metallica is known for its intricate drum patterns, especially the iconic double bass pedal section. While the song's original drumming can be quite complex, this tutorial divides it into five levels, starting with the beginner-friendly "Level One." This allows those new to drumming to start learning immediately and progress gradually to more advanced levels.

    Some people have rightfully pointed out the editing in recent years, which I cannot tell for certain if it is just eq or they added more bass drum hits, but it seems like they added some, which is weird since he plays lux aeterna double bass normally(seen from fan cams). So it is fair to acknowledge this and edit the comment. Still, this doesn't change the point about saddening trash talk, all throughout the 80s you could see great drumming, examples fight fire 85 and such. You can also check Seattle, Grammy, Mountain View and many more older performances of 'One' to see where he undoubtedly was, 80s were the metallica decade performance wise. He is what he is, by far not the most talented performer but a clear standout creatively and a drumming legend.
