Kirk Hammett on how Johnny Ramone influenced his down-picking style: “I love that sound”
He essentially invented an entire genre of maintaining time by only using downstrokes.

The Ramones’ Johnny Ramone, according to Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett, is the performer who gave birth to his downpicking style.

The guitarist explains to Rick Beato in a recent interview, “I’ve been doing it since I was a kid, and it’s all because of The Ramones and The Sex Pistols.

More high-end and less percussion are some benefits of down picking, according to Hammett: “You must get the palm of your hand as close to the saddle as possible, but I love that sound. You can hear it in any Ramones song,” he claims, noting that he’d grown to be “really good friends” with the musician.

He was a truly bizarre, contentious figure who was a contrarian purely for his own entertainment. He was also a genuinely amusing man. You’d say something, and he’d simply answer back right away,” Hammett claims. “And, you know, I’d respect his right to an opinion. John would respond by asking, “How can I be an influence on you? ” when I’d remark, “John, you know, you’ve been a huge influence on me.” I remarked, “The manner you choose! It affected a great number of people.

“I asked, ‘How did you come up with that?'” I was merely counting, he says. I could only keep track of how many downstrokes I made. He could only keep time this way! He essentially invented an entire genre of maintaining time by only using downstrokes.

In other parts of the conversation, Hammett discusses the value of improvisation in music and how he appreciates the “danger” and “excitement” that the approach provides to both the listeners and the playing musician.

He explains, “I don’t consider myself a heavy metal guy or a guitar player; I consider myself an improvisational musician first and foremost. “Because I think improvisation is the key to everything… Everything stems from improvisation, including technique, songwriting, and problem-solving in music.

Additionally, the guitarist asserts that contemporary bands “figure things out too much,” adding: “Everything is so planned out and that’s wonderful. That is perfectly acceptable; pop bands specialize in that. However, I simply miss the spontaneous element and the suspense that comes with watching this band perform.
