0:00 - Introduction
Remember the first time you heard "Enter Sandman" by Metallica?

Or maybe you've never heard the song at all.

It's one of the most popular metal tracks of all time, but those outside the metal or rock world might not recognize it.

The last time Larnell Lewis came out to Drumeo, we challenged him to write a drum part - on the spot - to a song he'd never heard before (click here to watch) and he blew everyone away.

This time, Larnell wanted to try a style he's not known for playing: metal!

If you want to see a fusion drummer try to play one of the most popular metal songs of all time, don't miss this video (you can skip to 9.33 if you just want to watch Larnell play).

01:08 - Active listening
When learning a song, he practices active listening, which includes looking for these things:

Song form: How many measures are in each section?
Tone: How does the song feel? Is it aggressive or calm?
Specifics: Any shots you should look out for?

Larnell takes an analytical approach and breaks down all the details, noticing patterns and themes and how the different instruments play off each other. Because of this, he can already hum the chorus' melody and drum part after only hearing the song once, and remembers most of the structure as well.

09:33 - Performance
While he's known for his great drumming skills, he also has excellent listening skills and a strong memory. Larnell knows what to prioritize when learning, so he's able to learn quickly. You can learn how to do it too!

Larnell: "That half time will get ya"
Me, not a musician, never played drums in my life: "He's right that half time will get ya, people don't realize that."

Not quite sure which is more unbelievable: His extraordinary talent OR the fact that he never heard of Enter Sandman.

I wish that Drumeo had Larnell do this song with their current format, with him listening to a drumless part and coming up with it himself.

I love how he recognizes that the half-beat would mess him up, so he adapted the lines with high-hat fills to not loose track while keepin the half beat on the crashes. It ended up harder to perform than the original line, but for his mind work, the extra notes ended up helping him keep on track. A nice improvise perfect for a first-time performance. A true Genius.

Normal people: "Can you turn up the music?"
Cool People: "I'll take more volume."

Larnell, 9 hours into listening through Metallica's discography: "Still open hi-hats, okay."

Absolutely incredible. My favorite moment: This incredibly nice, classy, clearly educationally-bent and probably classically-trained professional... 1/3 into Sandman is fighting back a snarl as only metal gives ya. Absolutely love it.

HE was able to take away the agressive playing, and still execute the song with high precision, that is remarkable, amazing, talent and technique together!!!!!!

"I'm assuming it's 1, 2, 3, 4?".

Suddenly Larnell started to panic. That's not a time signature he's ever played before.

"I'll take more volume"

That is the correct response when listening to Metallica.

Incredible. I always assumed it took session drummers weeks to learn how to play for bands they're not a part of on tours. This guy has just shown how much on another level to ordinary (non musicians) they really are gifted.

"I'll take more volume" is the correct thing to say when listening to Metallica. He really is a natural

He claims heā€™s not metal but then goes right ahead and says: ā€œIā€™ll take more volumeā€. Thatā€™s a pretty metal way to say a pretty metal thing.

If this is indeed pure intuition, then Larnell is an absolute genius. Bravo!

Iā€™m a retired Military Fighter Pilots Iā€™ve seen this ability from 1 maybe 2 guys I flew with. A true gift to visualize or hear and then replicate with muscle memory applying what his body knows. All while his mind is translating, processing and storing the information. This is truly one of the most fascinating things Iā€™ve ever seen/heard.

Every now and then, the youtube algorythm randomly throws an absolute gem my way.

This is what happens when talent skips about 1 million people and then smashes itself into the soul of a dude who likes to bang on shit.
Good on him. Incredible stuff

Itā€™s really beautiful getting an insight into these very talented musicians describing what they listen for in music and how they structure their understanding of a piece (and genre) of music when theyā€™re meeting it for the first time.

God, that song still HITS!!! Brings me back to high school. My brother is a drummer and introduced me to Metallica in the early 90s We had that song on repeat!šŸ‘ I loved listening to my brither play and began a love affair of music of all types because of him.ā¤ I really enjoyed listening to Larenel break it down and then play. šŸ‘ Awesome!
