Slayer's Paul Bostaph Fires Back Over Lombardo's Claims
. Lombardo's third stint came to an end last year following a contractual argument. That led to Bostaph's return, also for a third term. The original sticksman recently insisted he'd been involved in all the creative work on the kit. But his replacement disagrees, saying the truth is that Slayer's approach to songwriting means that most drummers would wind up writing similar parts for guitarist Kerry King's songs. "I heard that Dave wrote all the parts. It's funny - I didn't see him anywhere around when I was working on the music," Bostaph tells Andrew Haug. "When Kerry shows you something he's got in his mind what he wants. There's not a lot of room for the drummer to do anything in the music, but you have to know how to colour it. "He's going to go, 'I want this kind of beat here,' or 'double bass there.' Maybe there's a part of the song where he's like, 'I don't really know what I want the drums to do here, so do whatever you do here.' The songs are in a very strong format before you get a chance to dig in." here. TeamRock Radio is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
