“Fckafeew” ~Alex Hefner
wrong speed on the track ...to slow
Fun fact: The "bells" in this song aren't actually bells. In studio, Lars was hitting an anvil with a big hammer, and that's what made it to the track.
how you know that??
@@jizzus4842 it was in one of the interviews for the 30th anniversary stuff for the Ride The Lightning album
@@Fister_of_Muppets gotcha
@@Fister_of_Muppets I've heard the old cassettes were high pitched for RTL , but on youtube it's in E standard when i play bass alongside..
For whom the anvil tolls
Interesting fact... Cliff was in high school when he wrote that into line.
R.I.P. Such a virtuoso of a bass player🤘
he composed pulling teeth's main structure at 14/15, also.
He was the Man, and was one of the major influences that got me started playing the bass when I was a teen. Gone, but certainly not forgotten. RIP Cliff!
Cliff the bass god. Cliff the bass shredder, cliff the Brian May of bass. Cliff the man who defined bass in metal.
RIP Cliff
Always loved the verse "Take a look to the sky just before you die.. it's the last time you will".
Can't frickin wait for the next track, it's my all-time-favorite song.
One of mine as well absolutely love Fade to Black

FADE TO BLACK...MY FAVE SONG FROM THE ALBUM!!!
@_NUCLEAR HOLOCAUST_ ?
"Metallica. The band that lets the music do the talking." Not the exact quote but you could not have said it better.🤘😀
What's the exact quote
I farted while reading your comment!!!!
@@markdawson8946 thnx for letting us know, keep it up!
"Metallica. The band who haven't released a killer album in 30 years"
Not the exact quote but hey, you started this.
Gojira would like a word
The song is based on Ernest Hemmingway's book, For Whom the Bell tolls which is set during the Spanish Civil War. Hemmingway covered the war for an American newspaper.
Ty so much for info
The line before that can be found in a famous John Donne sermon from 1624- "Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it toll for thee." He's talking about how we are all connected.
I read it because of this song 😁
Wait.....you hear For Whom The Bell Tolls 3 years ago for the first time and never listened to it again since? What the what? That literally makes me sad.
To be honest, that live version does not do the song any favors. The studio version is just something else.. Gives you a much deeper look and understanding of the music and lyrics.
That's the thing w a lot of these reactors bro. They don't actually enjoy hard rock/metal music. They pretend to for views. Most are posers.
@@capoditutticapos19 yeah if he can fake enjoy those shitty games then he can with anything honestly 👎🏽
@@capoditutticapos19 Yeah no Alex aint no poser.
@@olejacobremme2365 normally i also recomment the studio-version but this live-performance was just great, especially the vocals of james in this young age.
Fun facts:
- It is the song with which they have rehearsed the most, for which they had planned and prepared it for their second album
-Cliff's solo on bass had it already written and practiced when he played at his school graduation in 1979.
- During the recording of James's vocals, a "FUCK" by Cliff Burton comes out almost at the end of the song, which by the way is POETIC !!.
- Actually the hits of the intro, they are not bells, if not an anvil in which he managed the Danish recording studio or as I know, clearly Lars was the one who took advantage of said instrument to make the intro of the song hitting it with a hammer, clearly they put effects on it so that it had the aura of a bell.
- James learned a lot of music theory in this track since on his bridge, he wrote it in a hurry, in an interview Kirk talks about the problem they had with the song's bridge, because Cliff had to leave early from the recording, to be with his parents in San Fransisco (clearly he finished the bass tracks of the album before leaving, besides that he gave James a lot of musical theory and in this the musical process of this beautiful album and the song in general).
If there are more curious facts that escaped me, put it here in my comment, so that people know more fully what was behind making this great song, created with love and passion for music.
was the FUCK around 5mins 3sec in the song? I pulled up the isolated tracks and it definitely sounds like there could've been a FUCK around there. Maybe it was somewhere else and I missed it.
This is the first song I heard off this album and still, after all these years, it still gives me goosebumps 🤘🤘
You always cheer me up. Three months out from my Mom’s death, your energy is absolutely helpful, and I appreciate it. Stay awesome. 🙌🏻
Be strong loss Mom 3years ago still hasn't set in cuz I'm only son maybe that why
I know how you feel I lost my auntie a year ago and He has helped me through it stay strong Amara
Sorry for your loss😔😔🙏🏼🙏🏼
sorry for your loss. my mom passed 4 years ago last week. it does get easier, but never truly goes away.
@@shotaholic1 hurts a lot it was 3years ago May 18 2018
I cant believe no one in the comments caught this but the version of the song you listened to is slightly slowed down which sounds really weird compared to the original. It makes the overall sound lower in pitch and a slower tempo and it doesnt sound right. The studio version on youtube doesnt sound like the one you listened to
Ok I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who caught onto it I thought it sounded off I was like why is James’s voice sound so deep
The on record track is actually a sped up version of what the really played to sound tighter. This version is what the original recordings sounded like.
I was waiting for this comment
I'm pretty sure he listened to the original, he used this slow version to avoid the copyright
I felt it dude 🤘
Day on The Green 1985 was a true masterpiece of Cliff ! CLIFF 'EM ALL !
One of their best gigs so far!
Man I miss Day on the Green.....
Alex's first reaction to this song a few years ago was this performance.
This is for several private reasons my favorite song of all time. I'm 41 and Every time I hear Bells, I have to stop for a second. If it's on radio it's usually Hells Bells by AC/DC. But at the random times It's actually For Whom The Bell Tolls, I have to stop whatever I'm doing and enjoy it.
Metallica and this album ride the lightning changed the game at the time it came out. I was a teenager and it was just incredible to experience this change in rock in the 80s.... I am 52 now and I still bang to this.
The first song i ever heard from Metallica. MY favorite.
Same! This song holds a special place in me. It's the song that I literally listened to on repeat for like weeks, and it's what got me into metallica and then metal in general. Love it every time
Same and was hooked immediately, it is not my favorite however, One is :)
I love this and Fade to Black so much . I love Metallica 🤘
When Alex slammed the desk and said STEP UP EVERYBODY ELSE. Put a smile on my face
R.I.P Cliff...one of his masterpieces
Came onto the football field to this song in high school, so epic!
Just listened to this song on Metallica's live stream tonight 😂. Just finished before this was posted
Me too. I miss MetallicaMondays! Check it out while you can Alex. It is still live streaming.
Same😂
Same
Omg me too!!! I miss Metallica Monday!! Hello Metallica Family!!!!!!🤘🤘🤘
@@rominawitschnig me too I was at this concert 😁🤘😝
He’s just getting started in my opinion this is the best Metallica album and one of the top five metal albums of all time
This is the song that made me a Metallica fan \m/
Same with me... alongside with Master Of Puppets.🤘🤘🤘
Mine was propably One that was played on MTV all the time :)
@@FinntrolliSUOMI I first seen them on the Woodstock '94 compilation video and this is the song they played. I was hooked ever since.
Me too! I was listening to the tape I borrowed from my friend who was into metal. I was dozing off (listening to it late at night on a bus trip for band) but when he said "take a look to the sky just before you die, it's the last time you will" I woke up and was like "whoa" and asked him to make a me a copy of whatever album had that line in it. He gave me Kill 'Em All instead at first, which was also great.
Same
Fun fact the “bell” you hear in the song is actually an anvil
Really?
@@arcane3943 yep
I got a lot of hate for saying that on another reaction to this song! The producer (Flemming Rasmussen) has stated it in several interviews so I certainly believe it.
I would guess it was recorded and then played back at a low speed (about 25%); I tried doing that myself with a sample from a RUclips video and it does sound very similar to the bell in the song.
BS.
thats pretty heavy
“One of my favorite games, raid shadow legends”
Lol, sure.....
Nobody un-ironically likes that game. Makes me laugh anytime I see people promoting it saying they love it.
I can respect the hustle.
I let it be only because I get it, gotta get the ad money and make a living lol
After the check they cut for him........ sheeeeeet if I got that kind of check, it would be one of my favorite too
After so many times screaming in the comments "AlEx pLEaSe rEaCt tO..." I can live with that. Still funny tho.
This was the first Metallica song I've ever heard. Next day went to the record store and bought the cassette. Played the tape so much that I had to buy it two more times. Ride the Lightning I my favorite album and song but this song is special to me as well.
@Alex we love your reaction videos please keep them coming
Your Metallica reactions can’t come fast enough. 😂
Bro I’ve been watching them as they’re released since MOP 😂
@@jonsnow6979 literally same 😅
Most ICONIC opening bass line EVER !
This recording is definitely a little slower than the original. Like it’s at .75 speed
I think it's so the copyright bots don't flag the video
It also sound a little lower pitched
That’s probably what it would have originally sounded like if they did not have to tune their guitars up slightly for this song to match the pitch of the opening bell.
It feels wrong
@@IceNinja2007 Metallica doesn't give copyright strikes for their songs or videos so there is no need to slow it down.
One of the Headbanger's Ball anthems.
This song has a special place In my heart because this is the 1st Metallica song I've listened to, and I've been a fan ever since!!
It definitely is a bit slower as others have pointed out. Also fun fact. In their biography, Metallica said that the bell sound they used was made by hitting an iron bar against an anvil.
You are the only person I watch reaction videos from.. I bop my head with you, even listening songs that I have heard a million times before. Your outlook is awesome, your attitude is a breathe a fresh air, and you always make me laugh/put a smile on my face! This is.. you are.. .priceless!!! I thank and appreciate you for these!!!
Another album suggestion in the future. Sepultura: Arise!
Definitely
or Beneath the Remains, both are sick albums
Or Chaos A.D.
Friking love Sepultura, BTR, Arise & Chaos A.D. are stunning albums.
dead embryonic cells & desperate cry are my favorites.
Or Slayer - Disciple
I'm sure people know that if they've followed Alex for a while that he has reacted to 3 songs off this album in the past. But of course you can never hear enough Metallica. And this is one of their best songs.
These reactions are fake anyway.
Being with them since 83 I get asked all the time what my favorite album or song is ~ it's whichever song or album I'm listening to at the time, it's not just you it's just METALLICA 🤘
love how you went from hiphopper reacts, to now a true metalhead, who just listens to whatever you want ;)
It would be cool if Alex played his intro on guitar
Or bass😏
@@calebvillela8622 the channel intro
Or the intro was played by a full band with guitar, bass, drums and Jordan Rudess style keyboards
dude,how can you go 3 years without listening to this amazing tune ????
3 years ago alex was a hip hop head
He did but maybe he can't remember. He has not heard Fade to Black yet. How the hell is this possible but it is up next. Can't wait
He has reacted to this song before from 1985 live
@@CscrewDriver I know,3 years ago😀
first 4 metallica albums are epic metal masterpices...love them since 1989 !
My favorite Metallica song of all time! 🤘🏻🎸⚡️🔔
Always good to see someone becoming a genuine Metallica fan. Don’t let em bully you around. Load and Reload are amazing too 🤙🏽
Hell yeah
if Load & Reload came out when it did by ANY other band, they would have been massive hits. unfortunately for Metallica, it was one of the last things their fans were expecting.
(behind only St Anger lol)
That's right 🔥
I thought there was some good shit on Load (and the cover art is fucking hilarious!), but didn't find much to like on Reload. But, hey, music is entirely subjective. Like what you like.
Some kind of monster and load and reload are all three throw away albums I'm an old metal head I've been a fan ants and their EP Cliff Burton what is a God on bass if he were still alive those atrocities would have never seen the light of day long live cliff rest in peace brother
You're surprised for 2 minutes of instrumental?
Dream Theater: hold my beer...
5 days and thousands of time changes later......
@@TheBaconWizard 🥱😴
Pink Floyd, Tool
I think he was meaning he wasn’t surprised actually. He loves that Metallica do that
@@TheBaconWizard a change of seasons later
Love the guitar riffs and drum fills in this one
my fav metallica song
The first time I heard this song was at the beginning of Zombieland, which is a badass movie if anyone hasn't seen it.
Puppets is at the beginning of the sequel
Badass movie so fun xD
@@beatmet2355 same
First time I heard it was from watching the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame concert on tv back in 2009.
Its also at the beginning of Triple Frontier. Such a great movie
Which ever recording he is listening to is actually tuned a half step down. It feels a bit more heavy. I kinda like it
I think it's slowed down a hair
@@loganmiller6481 slowing it down would also tune it down, so yeah probably.
Y’all high? It’s the same shit.
@@DillyDilly13 no it’s definitely different, slower and hetfield a vocals are deeper
Definitely slower
One of there best songs love it and love your show 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻rock on
My son is 11 and he loves this song. Always asks to hear it when he comes over. Badass
This is actually a pretty simple song on the drums if you get a little daring 👀
Lol this is such a fact too
It's also one of their simplest and most basic guitar work they've ever written
@@StirbMensch still it's their top 5
It’s simple, but the live versions are better. It’s also one of those songs where, if you’re a drummer, you can’t NOT beat the shit out of your kit.
@@hugolafhugolaf You should check out drumcam of "Exercises in futility V" by the Black Metal band"Mgla"
The cymbal work is INSANE.
Alex...I just found your channel yesterday, and am watching all of your Metallica reactions. Totally Epic!! You the Man!
Being a Die Hard Metallica fan since 83', and witnessing double digit concerts of theirs, you are spot on when You say they are the best Heavy Metal/Thrash Metal band of All-Time!!! METALLICA RULES THE WORLD!!!!!!!
This is one of the better songs to learn on guitar and drums if your just getting started.
There are live versions of this song throughout the years that are sonically and visually just gorgeous.
Wait for “THE CALL OF KTULU” it will be awesoooomeeeeeee😈😈😈😈
Ktulu is my fav song on this record!
For everyone commenting on the slow tempo of the recording, he clearly listened to the original studio version and used the slower one for the vid to avoid a copyright strike, that's why the song keeps playing for a bit well after he's finished listening to the song
BUT... BUT.... I SEENT IT WIFF MY OWN EYES, HE WAS LISTENING TO SLOW VERZUN!
You can hear the version on his headphones gets progressively further ahead than what we're listening to as well.
Yeaaaah FOR WHOM THE BELL TOOOOOLLSS!!! TIME MARCHES OOONN!!!
One of their best and classic songs.
Next album review should be slayer reign in blood!!!!
Legendary album. Fucking SLAYEEEEEERRRR
Unpopular opinion: Seasons in the Abyss is better
@@HypeWrecks agreeeed!
@@HypeWrecks And Hell Awaits is the best
I feel like my favorite Metallica album changes by the month lol
Mee too
The drums are absolutely awesome in this song.
Can't wait for the next one. It is a true masterpiece and very emotional.
Why is this tuned down 1/2 step and at a slower tempo?
I'm surprised less people noticed, the initial bell threw me off
Sounds harder I kinda fuck with it
It's to throw off the copyright bots
I was wondering if I was the only one that thought something was off. I almost checked my playback speed lol
Cuz Eb makes everything in E sound heavier :D
I know how you feel.. Metallica really is just the best!😱😱
I had come across this song in my teens, during the winter of 2007 or something. The bell sound, the basslines at the intro and the heavy guitars in such a cold weather was really an epic jam for me back then. 😄😇
One of my all time favorite songs ❤
Keep it up man! Love your reactions!
And next you get Fade To Black. And then you'll get two songs that often get forgotten. Trapped Under Ice and Escape.
Two great songs IMO
Trapped under ice: Killer
Yeah, escape is my least favorite song of ride the lightning, but trapped under ice is so cool, if the drums were higher it would be a more famous song I think, because of the double bass
Love both songs!!
Cant wait for "Trapped Under Ice"!!!! Love that one!!!
this song came on the radio shortly after i got news of my dads cancer, i cried silently then, and every time i hear it afterwards, it will forever be the song that makes me feel his death. they gave him 6 months he lasted three years.
You need to watch Metallica: through the never. It’s like a live movie with a second story in the background. Highly recommend
The dude who drives up and screams "METALLICAAAAA" in that movie is my spirit animal.
Through The Never, Some Kind of Monster, Cunning Stunts. The best Metallica video is A Year and a Half in the life of Metallica. Then there is Cliff'em All too
@@hatethreeoneofficial “SON OF A BITCH!!!” Then struggles to climb on the car as trip comes past on his board and falls in the puddle. Best opening to a movie ever
@@morganwaller1195 The opening is 100x better with a (I think Spanish?) overdub. Not exaggerating. You can find it on RUclips
Guy on his car "METALLICAAAAAAAAA!!!!"
Overdub with thick accent: "Metallica."
@@iiRaptusGaming oh no I can imagine it 😂
Thnks for doing Ride the Lightning album... you are definately in for a real treat 😉🙌😎
Man you could easily learn this song on guitar, it was one of my first songs I learned it basically all power chords
This song will make the worst day of your life bearable again. That's how magic this monster jam is
Cliff Burton had that bassline when he was in his former band Trauma!
Still a masterpiece to this day
Nothing better than this song live!
My favorite Metallica song. Some of the most underrated work from Cliff.
Please please, when you get to Fade to Black, do not not react to the fan video again that had all the Private Ryan scenes. That is not Metallica's video. They did not officially make a video until they did 'One' from Justice in 1988. Then again, it is your channel, so feel free to do as ya wish...just a suggestion. Appreciate all your reactions!!
Metallica is the best band of all time. By far, Hands down , I can feel the music.
Love coming home, listing to Metallica and watching you react to it. Thanks for the content brother.
I remember reading an article in the Kerrang Magazine about their journalist going to investigate this new band called Metallica.
They started the show with this song and the journalist dropped his beer - in sheer disbelief.
Used to play this one in a band 20 years ago.
Yall remember that time guy put the song to game of throne burning of kings landing? That was pretty great
I'll say it again....my favorite metal album of all time!!!
12 fift grade first Metallica song i ever heard .... pumps me 21 year later .
You should react to the concert live at Mexico City, it is NUTS.
Hell no. James voice sounds awful on that show. The Seattle show sounds way better
@@Puppyboi12345 James voice actually sounds pretty good in Mexico City. But I agree, Seattle performance is better
@@brandoncardenas258 he sounds good but there’s no power or grit in his voice. He sings clean 95% of the show. Kills the mood
Fun fact: The bell is not actually a bell but a hammer striking an anvil
Yea, also it was Lars who was striking the anvil
BS.
One of Metallica's best songs ever and ever and ever.
Cliff could do anything with that bass!
We miss you everyday Cliff
Alex you always make smile. What a lad
Favorite Metallica Song Ever. RIP Cliff
Have had Cliff tattooed for 30 years, love his music stuff so much. Hope you've seen the agents of misfortune gig where Cliff is 17 or 18 I think. You can hear riffs and intro from this song and anaesthetia. So good..
Next album, vulgar display of power by pantera
My favorit song from this album is Creeping death because it’s so power full live when the whole crowd is chanting ”die”. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
*I've got a fever ...and the only prescription is more bell!!!*
Wait til you hear the S & M version, I really hope you'll eventually get to it!! 🤘😆
What an amazing version that is, I actually prefer it to this one
@@3091mg right???
Fun fact, the "bell" is actually an anvil slowed down.
I was 15 and lived it , great song 😎🤘
Fellow Hefnerd here. Bro you going to fall in love with Fade to Black. Can't wait to see that reaction 💯🔥🤘
Those "bells" in the background is actually an anvil!
*Alex: “2 minutes before he sings!”
*Dream Theater: “ hold my beer”
Octavarium 😂
This was my favorite song for a long time.
