I will be conducting an interview with Slayer drummer Dave Lombardo at the Mayhem Festival, so if you have any questions for the band please leave them in the replies.
Big fan of dave's. My question is based on hearing the new song. Do you think a song can be heavier by playing slower and are a lot of the new songs going to be slower? And by slower I mean normal speed in comparison to the usual slayer. Its not a bad thing. I think "Bloodline" is extremely heavy and its not the usual slayer speed.
How do you feel about the metal scene today? Do you have any advice to a struggling drumnmer who is trying to get the speed that you have on the double bass?
What are your thoughts on the music scene in general today? How do you feel about being on a tour festival like this? Does it feel like ozzfest? How has the times changed you?
