Cliff -> Best Bassist/ Song writer
Jason -> Best background-vocals and headbanging ( how he screams „die“ in this song is awesome)
Jason sang a whole verse too
@@ShredmasterScott he sang the whole song sometimes
Cliff had best headbanging tho
@@Ilshatey both amazing but jason has a lot of energy on stage
@@lordugi5034 we don't know how Cliff would behave after 1986
C'mon Shred, we need "Frayed Ends of Sanity" vs Music Theory

Well, favourite Metallica bassplayer, thats tough, but iam going with Newsted because of his stage presence, i mean i love all of Metallica bassplayers, but for me as a bass player there are always these 3 guys 1. David Ellefson 2. Jason Newsted 3. Cliff Burton
I’ve seen them three times, Philly in ‘89, Pittsburg in ‘91 and Boise in 2018. While I have always been a fan of Burton, simply because of his talent and the fact that he loved Bach, both times I saw Newsted were spectacular.
In Philly, he came out on stage by himself, right after “The Thing That Should Not Be”. The spotlight shone down on him, as he said, “ I know in your eyes I’ll never compare to Cliff, but this is my tribute to him...Bass solo, take one.” and the crowd went fuckin nuts. It was flawless.
In 2018, Metallica showed they had not slowed down one bit. The Taco Bell Arena is a pretty small venue, but they absolutely didn’t give a shit about that. Every single member played his ass off. Again, “Anesthesia, Pulling Teeth “ was on the list, and Rob didn’t disappoint, although I just don’t think he gels with the band like Jason did.
What was cool was that monitors came down from the ceiling and Cliff was playing too and Rob was right on point with Cliff...gave me chills. There was even a guy in the crowd who was Cliff’s spitting image, long ass hair, moustache, jean jacket and bell bottoms. The spotlight was on him quite a bit; James and Kirk pointed to him several times. The Legend in Loon Pants lived again for a few hours. Awesome concert.
I think that Philly show is up here on youtube (unless they played more than one show at different venues when passing thru philly)
Press X to doubt
remember one of my cousins having a book about the evil satanic rock music, and it talked of metallica's creeping death, with the audience changing "die, die, die", i always thought it funny them listing, basically a song about moses, and claiming it to be satanic, people are all crazy
The performance point is very true it is an aspect lost with the pandemic hopefully soon we will be able to live that energy again, and also nice burn at the instagram guitar scene haha
yeah, insta bedroom players can't play live....myself included
@@ShredmasterScott but you make kickass youtube content shred so you are not the stereotypical insta guitar, thats something i cant learn watching a live a performance though haha maybe in a clinic of some sort...
"Lars crushing it"is not a term I've ever heard anyone say
Broooo let it goo lmao

He was stepping on an empty beer can....
Bro shut up, Lars really ain’t that bad
@@jeronimofernandez7643

PaPa Het in his prime. A machine you might say.
absolute unit
Jason had the best stage presence, but Cliff was the best. Period! Exclamation Point!
facts
He wasnt. Period. Exclamation mark.
1.6 million people actually you were close just off by 1 million
I heard that's how many people attended Monsters of Rock in Moscow, not how many people saw Metallica perform on that day. I could be wrong, though.
@@ed4409 look it up haha
@@kaic9712 every article I can find always groups AC/DC, Metallica, Pantera, The Black Crowes, and E.S.T. as 1.6 million. There is no article showing how many people saw each band separately. There's also an article that Lars says he was initially told there was a half-million people that watched them perform and ever since then, they kept adding about 100,000 more to the number every time it was brought up. I tried posting the link, but YT deleted the comment.
@@ed4409 weird
insane
I loved button's music and how good he was at bass, also the fact that he was part of the first Metallica family, and it showed in the creative process. But Jason was more metal and got metallica's live performance to the next level
Burton was the og, but I will take Jason over Rob any day.
I'm one of those wierdos that like Jason's playing the most even though I don't even like hardly anything Metallica did after Justice. I know.....😆...Cliff had a personality that was larger than life though. He could've easily been the front man assuming he had the vocals for it. He's on the album version of all of my favorite songs by them excluding Unforgiven but I genuinely like Jason's sound and approach more. Rob, in my opinion, belonged in a band that was more bass oriented. Of course he would never turn down that gig though.
@@CynHicks Not a weirdo.. There are a lot of us that loved Jason
Rob is amazing, but Jason fit Metallica better.
I miss Rob in ST.
@@damonhowell6292 He really was a great fit for them, ST. In my mind, I wasn't a huge fan for what it's worth, he was always the star of that band. I didn't know a whole lot about them other than him actually. Basically what I'm saying is back then I thought ST was alright but Rob was great. He stood out in everyway which is suited for him and his playing and his image for that matter.
@@cabinetdad75 I meant for the fact that I didn't like hardly any of the songs he was a part of making. Unforgiven being a big exception along with WEIM Roam and Sad but True being minor ones. His live performances is really where my opinion is formed. That and his Flotsam stuff......Justice being my favorite album by them I'm still pissed at Lars. Butthole! 🤣
Jason Newsted was my favorite Metallica bass player. He had the best backup vocals and the greatest fat metal bass tone out of all of them.
You should do "If Bach wrote Orion"
Trujillo is the best Metallica bassist imo.
He really sits well in the song and is technically the cleanest of the 3. He may not have the same energy as Newsted, or the writing talents as Burton, but damn does he do their parts justice whilst writing killer lines
he's tough to beat
Yeah his basslines are the cleanest in the recording,but he's more funk than metal
The only thing that i dont like about trujillo is that he doesnt take liberty, he doesnt play anything by himself like jason did and just followed the guitars, if you clodely hesr trujillo he just follow james 99% of the time and jason, even if his bass wasnt mixed loud enough you could hear him doing some improv instead of always playing and open E or following the rhythm guitar
hes like a hybrid, song writing and great bass playing
It's really hard to pick my favorite Metallica bassist, actually. Cliff was the OG and wrote really great stuff that defined Metallica; Jason (when you hear AJFA songs live and can hear the bass) had some great writing too for many albums, a fantastic stage presence, can sing, and is a great performer, and was who helped Metallica become a household name in the first place; and Robert is technically awesome and heavier in his riffs and writing, which I always like to hear so I love his work on _Death_ _Magnetic_ and HTSD, two awesome albums.
Some mech-combo of the three would be my choice to melt amps and ears. 🤘
This was very satisfying to watch
excellent
I loved Cliff's contribution with his compositions, but I love Jason the best. His raw energy on stage, his background vocals, his relentless bass attack with his pick, I know it's sacrilege but he's my fav.
When Jason was on the band, James wasn’t the best vocalist of the band. I would have kill to have Jason take on more vocals on live performances. His voice was powerful and evil.
For real..I sometimes wish they would bring Jason back in just to do background vocals if nothing else...creeping death just ain't the same without him.
Glad someone’s doing this kind of analysis. Awesome idea!
5:10 DIE in Russian spells like GIVE (me) so here's why it is also so near to us - Russians back then when nobody knew internet or english well))))
Cliff of course my favorite Metallica bassist but no one can deny Jason’s power on those “DIE”s
One thing’s for sure. If you have to go to the bathroom at that concert, you’re going to be walking awhile.
Personally, I like Jason out of the three. Their music with him sounds darker and more aggressive to me. I’ll say this in defense of the Black Album. You can play slower tempos and still sound as heavy as faster music. They proved that. Take Sad But True, for example. It’s one of their slower songs and in the key of D minor, which is uncharacteristic of Metallica, but it still sounds beastly. You can thank Bob Rock for getting them to experiment with tuning down a full step to get that sound.
As for Jason, who was the one guy that could walk through fire with those three after losing Cliff, I got a lot of respect for him.
Great analysis of this song/composition. Fast forward now, 30 years later, you'll never see them play this song again with such intensity!
As a music Major this is super informative and Metallica is always a great reference in respect to the more common classical music that I read/ analyze.
I’m glad you make these videos man. I thought I was the only person that does stuff like this; your theory is much vast in comparison to mine; but sentiment of this type of analysis is the same. Love it.
My favorite Metallica bassist? All of them.. for the era they served.. love to all.. xo
Again I ask, is Shredmaster Scott the "Evil" Ben Eller, or is Ben Eller the "Good" Shredmaster Scott???
Could be muhahaha
Fck i wanna have a beer with this dude. Seems chill af. Also, Cliff was my hero, these first 2 albums truly got me into thrash/metal. Next is Slayer. First heard them when I was around 8
Man I love these series, keep it up Shred my darling!
It's seemingly a very commonly done thing by the big four 80s thrash metal bands to blend the natural minor and Phrygian mode depending on the section of the song.
Another example would be Symphony Of Destruction by Megadeth. The famous riff from that song is very Phrygian, but the chorus is a lot more natural minor. Indians by Anthrax goes back and forth a lot too. Slayer often is so chromatic it's hard to tell 🤣 but they still use the aoelean/phrygian framework.
Jason's backing vocals (growls) really added to their stage presence imo. He was my favorite metallica bassist in that regard. Musically, melodically, Its Cliff any day of the week.
I just became a patreon supporter!! I love the channel keep it up!!
Holy wars live next time?
I like that idea
@@ShredmasterScott Totally gonna plug Ben Woods again cos (1) I'm a total fangirl, and (2) he has a great flametal cover of "Holy Wars".

They like to start the set list at their live shows with this song
Analyze "Exultation" by Sam Rivers
Everyone IN THE MOMENT.
Not a cellphone in sight! 🤘🤘
Shred, you've got to incorporate some headphones in your Viking helmet! XD
Bass wise cliff is obviously my favourite but on stage definitely jason, the man is a beast
I could binge watch Metallica videos from the AJFA/early Black Album era. Just metal perfection in every way!
I love your theory posts
Cliff Burton is definitely my favourite bassist but I'm gonna say Trujillo is a close second. He's very skillful and is faithful while still having his own style of playing. Newsted is kinda just there but he's a decent background vocalist
One of heaviest songs most unique Metallica riffs
It’s sad that a Rock and Metal concert of this magnitude will most likely never happen again
Yeah :(
Yeah :(
It's one of my favorite Metallica songs🔥🔥
Love this new format! Hope to see more.
your wish will be granted
Christ Jason was an absolute monster, he was always 100% onstage
The only thing i took out of this is that the song is in e minor. Like 99% of metallica songs. The rest was “locking down bass” and “stage presence”. Lacking music theory; or an explanation. This is a glorified reaction video. Just some constructive criticism
The best version of me is Seattle 1989
Got damn look at that crowd!
Just found your channel. Love your way of "reacting" to music. It's nice with the added layer of music theory.
Cliff for sure is my favorite but they were and are all stupidly talented, Jason was an actual beast!
Jason purely because of his brutal stage presence, vocals and tight and powerful pick playing
Jason was the best fit for Metallica. Rob is an amazing musician, but the sheer balls to the wall anger that Newsted bringed to the stage was just right
Dude, you are the man! Thanks!
Keep doing this type of videos, mr shred
dude i love your thoughts and knowage on music thank you
Newsted for me, he put out Doomsday For The Deceiver which is one of my favorite albums ever.
You missed the sweep picked A minor arpeggio lick in the solo it's about 4 bars in. It's awesome!
Jason Newsted is my favorite bassist of all time and easily my favorite Metallica bassist. Cliff or Rob aren't even close. Jason Newsted was the best frontman Metallica ever had. Metallica died the day he left.
I love this song and the solo is awesome too. Thank you!
Well Burton, Newsted and Trujillo are very very different type of players
Technically: Burton
Heavy sound: Newsted
Groove: Trujillo
If i have to pick one of them Burton
PS: did you saw Dave Lombardo playing with Metallica? It's awesome
Jason Newstead for the stage presents and vocals, burton for being a brilliant musician.
Do you think you could analyze a polyphia song? Great video by the way!
I'm creeping deaaaaath yeah yeahhh
I liked Jason as the bass player for Metallica, because his style seemed to progress with the direction of Metallica at the time. Doesn't mean he's the best but I do prefer his style, stage presence and vocal presence as well
I can't pick between Cliff and Jason. Cliff is so inspiring as a bassist to me, but Jason's stage performance is insane
That Jim Breuer bit about being an old man in the car requesting creeping death gets me every time, "Release the Slayer fans"
Excellent video, as usual!!! Thumbs up🤘 👍
I was too young to live the scene in the 70's, but I'm so glad I fully enjoyed the 80's. Looking back at this raw energy just makes it so much clearer how much music has been watered down and neutered these days. I was fortunate to see Metallica several times back in the day, with Queensryche, with Suicidal Tendencies... jesus, after these shows it took you a week to recover lol.
Jason's vocals on this song was his prime. But rob will always be my favorite bassist
I love this guy. I wish I had his knowledge of music theory. He would a great neighbor to have over at the cookout!
Jason is amazing bass player
Kinda crazy that this was done this week. I just did a video about Creeping Death that came out the day after this. It's on the channel for my podcast Petal to the Metal. Show's called Epic Riffs. I know you probably won't get to see this, but as someone still learning to describe stuff from a theory perspective, I would love some feedback Master Shred. Horns up!
One of, if not, the best Metallica song ever!!
yes the song is about Passover where Death passover the peoples houses that had the lambs blood on their doors.
Shred, what a innovative name xD
My favorite Metallica song
Newsted, no questions asked. Cliff was great, but Jason had that energy that the band needed.
It’s a real reaction. Thanks
It's hard to pick favourite bassist, each of them has some fantastic traits, but I think I will choose Jason Newsted.
Jason was fucking awesome 🤘🏻😃🤘🏻
I love Robert and cliff and no disrespect towards them but I grew up in the Jason era. So I'd have to go with Jason as much as I love the work of rob and cliff
You're awesome man😎
Wouldn't be a Shred vid without the F stand for F***!
Always love jason newsted
Do a play play everytime! That is why I started watching you!
My favorite Metallica song... : )
You didn't mention a passing Dorian note, C#, just before the beginning of the verses.
That was one of the main reasons I watched; to see if he had anything to say about that. He also wasn't listening carefully enough to notice that the chorus is still in aeolian, and only briefly flirts with the phrygian whenever they hit that F chord.
U didn’t mention the most lovely thing about this concert, no one in the audience is holding a telephone - brilliant times
Oh theres the idiot who always comment the same shit in every old concert video
They didn't have them back in these times
Ron McGoveny
Rob macgowney is my favourite bass player
This was a great time to be alive.... of course Cliff was the man.... Jason is awesome and did his best.....Trujillo is a ad man and fit in well with the aging Metallica.
