PRINTER FRIENDLY

Welcome Home (Sanitarium) is a slow, dynamic song featured on Metallica's classic album, Master of Puppets (1986).

In the verses (first heard at 0:33), Lars plays a two-measure half-time groove with an additional two beats tacked on the end. This 10 beat structure (grouped 4, 4 and 2) gives the section an interesting and distinctive sound.

Lars plays simple variations and fills within the framework to keep things interesting.
