Lars Ulrich is one of the most popular and richest Drummer who was born on December 26, 1963 in Copenhagen, Denmark. Metallica drummer who was outspoken about music piracy in the early 2000s when Napster was still in business.

He is joined by singer/guitarist James Hetfield, bassist Robert Trujillo and guitarist Kirk Lee Hammett in Metallica.

In February 1973, Ulrich’s father obtained passes for five of his friends to a Deep Purple concert held in the same Copenhagen stadium as one of his tennis tournaments. When one of the friends could not go, they gave their ticket to the nine-year-old Ulrich, who was mesmerized by the performance and bought the band’s album Fireball the next day. The concert and album had a considerable impact on Ulrich, inspiring the start of his music career.

Ulrich’s drumming style has changed throughout his career. During the 1980s he was known for his fast, aggressive thrash beats. He would often utilize the double bass technique in Latin breakbeats, which became highly popular among heavy metal drummers. The best examples of this are found in songs such as “Metal Militia” (Kill ‘Em All), “Fight Fire with Fire” (Ride the Lightning), “Battery”, “Damage, Inc.” (Master of Puppets), “Blackened”, “One”, “Dyers Eve” (…And Justice for All), “That Was Just Your Life”, “All Nightmare Long” and “My Apocalypse” (Death Magnetic). Even though “Hardwired”, “Moth Into Flame”, “Spit Out the Bone”, and “Lords of Summer” have the same double bass technique, the 2016 release of Metallica’s Hardwired… to Self-Destruct saw a more aggressive and experimental drumming style from Ulrich. Ulrich uses groove in his drum style, including clean and fast double bass beats in many songs and heavy drum fills. He has been known to drum in sync with the rhythm guitar played by James Hetfield.

He got married to Debbie Jones in 1988 and, after their divorce in 1990, he remarried Skylar Satenstain on January 26, 1997. He has three children: Bryce, Layne and Myles.
