He was saying people DON'T think they were made together, which they were, it was supposed to be a double album, but they ended up with roo much material, so went with two albums.
@@bennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn there's something about James' voice which is different from ReLoad, considering his vocals evolved in every record. The recording must've had a year gap at least, cuz the band was also on tour during '97.
I think too many People are missing one of The greatest Moments of this video, because you cant hear it properly: 5:46 Lars: How Many Drummers does it take to change a Lightbulb? James: One, as soon as he gets here.
hahaha yeah I noticed that years ago, that's the ribs they were giving each other a lot that started them on the path to falling apart before St anger was made.
I'm glad to see someone being open-minded about it! Ofcourse I like the old material, but Load and Reload did have some good ideas for riffs and solos. You can't deny that Hero of the Day is pretty damn catchy xD
Vladimir Mihajlović It would've been a classic if they took the best tracks off of Load and the best off Reload and put them into one album rather than two imo, but as-is, both are enjoyable but have a lot of filler
Load and Re-Load are amazing... and so was Garage Inc. I consider "Bleeding Me", "Outlaw Torn", "House That Jack Built", "Low Man's Lyric", "Memory Remains", "Astronomy (cover)" to be some of the best work the band has ever done. I applaud them for not just making the same album over and over. The first 3 with Cliff were AMAZING, and I will always consider Puppets my favorite, but Load is my second favorite :) Black album was amazing and it really showed the world that not only is MetallicA the world's greatest METAL band, they are also a very great ROCK band too. Load caught a lot of flack at the time but I loved the "blues/hard rock" sound of Load.
Lel finally found someone like this :D Huehue Bleeding Me,The Outlaw Torn and Low Man's Lyric has great song structures and good lyrics. If Metallica continued to make thrash albums from 1983 until now it would be boring. That's why you will never see a great band like this in years to come. They took a lot of risks and in the end it paid off.
GloryDouble7198 welp some points ya make i can agree with but i still gon listen to it, and so what! if they use stuff from there old works and others, many other bands do tha same shit but to each his own.
GloryDouble7198 like i said to each his own because i can go from the load/reload album to some death metal, it don't mater to me if they use actual instruments.
Lars: "Jason wake up its time to rock" @ 7:19 lol I fucking loved Load & reload as albums and I love the band! They were some funny douchebags back then
While I understand that most fans would be puzzled by the Load/Re-Load change from the previous albums, I have to say I find a lot of the songs in those 2 very interesting and original.
+TheAtb85 Exactly, they were experimenting with their own creative expressions, I don't know why people get so upset when artists do this. It not the old style was gone, they still play those songs constantly on tour, nothing wrong with a big of variety or things can go stagnant anyway.
+TheAtb85 The funny thing is if you listen to the guitar work on Kill em All and then listen to the Load and beyond guitar work you see the same basic guitar technique reappearing, just with 100% more twang.
TheAtb85 Song are very well made, by far is their most solid and creative album, but guess what, is not thrash, and people seem to be music ignorants when it comes to this, if is not thrash is trash, thats how most people see it, at the time, and how the metal scene was a lot of bands tried doing something different, kreator and megadeth in example, but fans blast the hell of those albums, even thought they were excellent in the musical side, in contrast with metallica, those bands stopped creating or experimenting, and just kept with their thrashy heavy style to please the fans, but well, Its better to enjoy things with no remorse, at the time you stop lisitening to something you like because a thrash elitist told you what you listen is shit because he doesnt like it, then is when you will loose your criteria.
austin cutty That's 1 guitarist out of 3. Adrian has used a variety of guitars over his career. Presently he endorses Jackson. Janick and Dave still use Fender. You stated that metal music cannot be played on a Fender. I have showed that it can, because Maiden and many other metal bands use Fender.
i used to be on that bandwagon of "everything after Justice sucks!" like every Metallica "fan"... emphasis on the quotes... but the older i get, the more i realize this is actually a great album.
I think "Load" is better than "Reload". There're a few cool tunes on the second, but on the first there's a lot of good stuff! Songs like "2x4", "Ain't My Bitch", "Until It Sleeps", "King Nothing" and "The House That Jack Built" are incredible!
Yeah, I heard that Lars took the idea of these albums to be released separately was taken from Axl and the "Illusion" albums. Anyway, I still prefer "Load" and just a few tracks from "Reload"...
Despite their lack of content, Load and ReLoad were probably the two best produced albums Metallica has. If you reduced the two albums to one album of the best songs from both, you'd have a really solid record!
I agree....similar to their new record. Two discs and too many songs....but if we pick the best songs on either discs and just make it as a single disc record...It would be even better sounding!
I think it would be great if load and reload were one double album. Imagine disc 1 - Fuel, Memory Remains, Until it Sleeps, Unforgiven II, King nothing, Mama Said, Devil's Dance, Hero of The Day, Bleeding Me, The Outlaw Torn
I love Load and Reload and don't really care about others opinions, yeah right these albums are different, not so speedy/thrash metal, but so what? I admire them more for being more creative and that they are looking for different, other inspirations, ideas. I hate opinions that they sold out and Slayer/Anthrax/Megadeth are still better cause they still have played thrash, that is not completely true, cause even Megadeth has changed in 90s and so Slayer after Seasons in the Abyss. So don't put labels on Meta, these musicians are changing and so songs that they are being written by them. If you don't like it, don't listen to it, but let others enjoy it!
even though you "dont really care", im gonna give you my opinion anyway. some of the best and worst metallica songs have come from load and reload. i think it wouldve been a unique masterpiece had they condensed load and reload into one album and left all the shitty songs out. i mean songs like, what, prince charming?? cmon now get that shit outta here.
phantumgrey fair enough. but if you think its on par with devil's dance, bleeding me, unforgiven 2, outlaw torn, and WTWTA, then you sir are the one smoking comething funky. its just my opinion but i was just naming prince charming because i honestly just dont see that song making the cut if they were to condense load and reload to 80 minutes
Look how different they were back then compared to know. Even though this music was so different than anything they have ever done they still behaved the same. I would say now they are more mature than they were in 95 yet today they are getting back to the heavy stuff.
In an MTV interview after Reload came out Lars said that they wanted to start releasing albums more frequently and tour a little less. I guess they forgot.
thebogeymaniscoming thank you! Even Dave Grohl ( not that much) and Fred Durst (he for sure feels it) both feels how stupid they were at the time on defending napster, after all, it made a huge difference on the weight of their wallets nowdays.
Load & Reload are the most ahead of their times Heavy Metal albums, they're a better band for sticking with how good they are musically, the look was down to Kirk and Lars which was a bad road to go down, they should have kept to what they believed in as a band who just got up on stage as the same person they were when they're off the stage but still, my favourite two albums by them as musicians, the first 5 were awesome but load and reload are pieces of art
I like how you tell them to stick with how they are musically but just because you don't like their look at the time that was a bad thing? It's their choice if you don't like it then screw off, they don't need someone telling them what to do.
All those people who get so angry that this isn't like their earlier albums: Do you really think that band that, at the time of making load and reload, were 12-13 years old, would still write the same music they had done for the last decade? I'm not surprised that this is different to previous records, the band themselves have changed, grown up and matured, and I respect them for that. Load and ReLoad, and St. Anger for that matter, are some of their best and most meaningful albums yet.
Load and ReLoad are great records, but I understand why they shocked so many long-time fans. Imagine hearing an album like Justice - an album that was so complex and brutal, yet lacking in good quality. And then they followed that with what is widely considered the best-produced album in rock/metal. So naturally, fans foresaw - or were the at least hoping for - a progressive-ish thrash album with huge sound. And instead they got Load and ReLoad. I love both albums, but I can also see how those two were letdowns considering where they had been previously.
Reading alot of young blood commenting on this. Just proves Metallica's longevity and relevance after 30 years. I was born in 75' and i think they are the greatest.
Idc what critics think, Load and Reload is really good. They went a lil bluesy/funky with a few, a cpl ballads, cpl old school hard ones. It's a great mix of talent. Just because it wasn't hard pounding doesnt mean its crap. Let artists explore...
Great point, I think if this album was released by a band under a different name (a side project band) it would have been better received. Great songs but NOT Metallica songs.
Bob Rock is a great producer. However, the lineage of Metallica albums had traditionally been made out of discomfort and controversial social ideals. The Black Album worked, but with Load and Re-Load, I think Bob influenced them too far outside of their traditional comfort zone: Rebelliousnous.
+Patrick Schafer And by St Anger he just gave up apparently. lol But nah Bob's cool, he was essentially the unofficial 5th member during the 90s and even early 00's. People either don't give him enough credit, or don't realise that Metallica were actually on board with his ideas and still had the final say.
Look at the footage while they were making the Black Album. Yes, they were "on-board" with Bob Rock because of his reputation. But you could also see the tension: James was annoyed half of the time, Lars was stabbing drumsticks through drum-heads, and Kirk was half-way walking out on Bob's ideas. Yes, Metallica had the final say, but in the end, the Black Album was a Juggernaut in terms of marketing, and got them exposed to millions more people world-wide. It was Load and Re-load that were pushed too far. Saint Anger doesn't count: James was in rehab most of the time and nobody knew what the hell to do. Then they went to Rick Rubin: He sonically destroyed that album. WAY too much compression. What is interesting is that as of now, Metallica as an entity has bought ALL of the rights to ALL of their albums, recordings, etc. When the next album comes out, it will be interesting to see what comes of it. On the fun side, that is also the ongoing mystery of Metallica. Stay tuned I suppose.
+Patrick Schafer No! Don't believe everything you read on the internet! Bob had nothing to do with the albums! James and Lars decide the songs of the album not Bob! Bob will suggest ideas techniques and methods but nothing more! After the Master album Cliff said that he wanted the band to move on from Thrash even S & M M was cliffs idea. All the shit talk about Bob comes from all the hardcore insecure metalheads!
Franco Costanzo if you think this is bad, then there is nothing good, since Load and ReLoad are masterpieces, but you are too much of an ignorant fuk to see and appreciate that, since it's not Thrash metal now, are you?
Franco Costanzo you probably have no idea what music genres are.... If you don't like hard rock then, what the hell are you doing on the making of the Load album?
Load and Reload are so great in my opinion,still love them and listening to them all those songs,Cure,Bleeding me,Low man lyrics,King Nothing,Untill it Sleep,Fixxxer,memory remains and more...they're all great songs..a band can't write Battery and Hit the light for ever,got to change in great way sometimes,as they have always did...
How can an album that has Bleeding me, The Outlaw torn, The Thorn within, The House that Jack Built, Until it sleeps, Mama said etc be their worst album? The songwriting is far more mature than Kill em all and most of the songs are superior to early songs such as Trapped under ice, Fight fire with fire, Escape...
I respect your opinion, also if I like some songs among those albums but in general I think they are mediocre records, but they have stood out with their last two albums
I think all there album is great in each way. Load and Reload is there most honest albums. Its okay to not like something. But dont say its crap just because you not like like it.
Because the lyrical content of the songs tends to be more introspective and emotionally resonant. Justice and Black album started this trend but it only came to full prominence with Load and songs like The House that Jack Built, Mama Said, Bleeding me, The thorn within etc. Those who solely listen to metal don't have enough knowledge and sensibility to appreciate an album such as Load. If they did, they'd realise it's better than its predecessor and nearly just as good as Metallica's best albums of the eighties.
that smells like the bay area on minute 2:59.I bet is fricking tiburon,I love my hometown(san francisco bay baby)metallica are gods,thanks for the video
Times change, people change, but that old school Metallica intensity... shit man... Just glad I can still throw in the old shit. Wish they'd try again.
Totally agree with you Redd. It's Metallica's choice to have the foundation of these songs, and not Bob Rocks. They chose to go a different way and why wouldn't they. If they hadn't gone with Bob, I don't think they would still be as big as they are today. I know I would get sick of 26 years of the same thrash metal. Instead, we got to hear them playing some old covers, some almost country and western, plus some blues and rock stuff. You get a whole catalogue of music with Metallica.
Metallica was smart to change with the times. Master of puppets would have failed in the mid 90s . It's just the fact they change with times and grow up
people that dont like all metallica consider them sell outs. i say true metallica fans stick behind them no matter what. and i like everything they did including st anger. METALLICA #1 ...they will never die.
Here they were recording Load AND Reload, both albums were made almost on the same time, Reload is almost all about unreleased songs writen for Load, just a few new ones.
Plus when Metallica originally recorded all of these songs, they were 29 songs completed and almost released as one album, they decided to split 'em up and make two cd's. So a lot of Reload was already completed before it was even an album.
just imagine, you are a sixteen year old kid, just listened to master of puppets before going to get the new metallica album, expecting the heaviest of metallica, and then hearing some bluesy riffs :p
Got a point there. I myself like some songs on Load/Reload, and o nRelaod The Memory Remains is one of my fav. But that's personal pref as you already said :)
Cool, I was 7 years old. Didn't know about Metallica back then, but I remember watching the Until it Sleeps video when it was released and Hero of the Day. I didn't became a fan until I was like... idk 13 though. I wish I could say I was a fan since I was 7 hahaha

+austin cutty What are you even talking about? So Iron Maiden don't play metal because they use Fenders? Come on dude get real.
What's wrong with fenders and metal?
Is that why adrian Smith uses Jackson now?

Adrian has always used a variety of companies. Dave is was, has and probably always will be a Fender kind of guy.

Bob Rock is a great producer. However, the lineage of Metallica albums had traditionally been made out of discomfort and controversial social ideals. The Black Album worked, but with Load and Re-Load, I think Bob influenced them too far outside of their traditional comfort zone: Rebelliousnous.
+Patrick Schafer And by St Anger he just gave up apparently. lol But nah Bob's cool, he was essentially the unofficial 5th member during the 90s and even early 00's. People either don't give him enough credit, or don't realise that Metallica were actually on board with his ideas and still had the final say.
Look at the footage while they were making the Black Album. Yes, they were "on-board" with Bob Rock because of his reputation. But you could also see the tension: James was annoyed half of the time, Lars was stabbing drumsticks through drum-heads, and Kirk was half-way walking out on Bob's ideas. Yes, Metallica had the final say, but in the end, the Black Album was a Juggernaut in terms of marketing, and got them exposed to millions more people world-wide. It was Load and Re-load that were pushed too far. Saint Anger doesn't count: James was in rehab most of the time and nobody knew what the hell to do. Then they went to Rick Rubin: He sonically destroyed that album. WAY too much compression. What is interesting is that as of now, Metallica as an entity has bought ALL of the rights to ALL of their albums, recordings, etc. When the next album comes out, it will be interesting to see what comes of it. On the fun side, that is also the ongoing mystery of Metallica. Stay tuned I suppose.
+Patrick Schafer No! Don't believe everything you read on the internet! Bob had nothing to do with the albums! James and Lars decide the songs of the album not Bob! Bob will suggest ideas techniques and methods but nothing more! After the Master album Cliff said that he wanted the band to move on from Thrash even S & M M was cliffs idea. All the shit talk about Bob comes from all the hardcore insecure metalheads!
Gaytallica
Franco Costanzo if you think this is bad, then there is nothing good, since Load and ReLoad are masterpieces, but you are too much of an ignorant fuk to see and appreciate that, since it's not Thrash metal now, are you?
Crazy Psycho in English please
Franco Costanzo Load and ReLoad are awesome.
Crazy Psycho hahahaha, awesome???? only if you don't have any fkng taste in music!!!
Franco Costanzo you probably have no idea what music genres are.... If you don't like hard rock then, what the hell are you doing on the making of the Load album?
Load and Reload are so great in my opinion,still love them and listening to them all those songs,Cure,Bleeding me,Low man lyrics,King Nothing,Untill it Sleep,Fixxxer,memory remains and more...they're all great songs..a band can't write Battery and Hit the light for ever,got to change in great way sometimes,as they have always did...
I am right man
Cliff would love what MetallicA has come to since he left life.
load and reload are the worst metallica albums
Carlos Perez Gallo *cough* st. anger *cough*
mediocre but isn´t too bad
How can an album that has Bleeding me, The Outlaw torn, The Thorn within, The House that Jack Built, Until it sleeps, Mama said etc be their worst album? The songwriting is far more mature than Kill em all and most of the songs are superior to early songs such as Trapped under ice, Fight fire with fire, Escape...
I respect your opinion, also if I like some songs among those albums but in general I think they are mediocre records, but they have stood out with their last two albums
Hardwired has a lot similarities with Load in terms of having those nasty sludgy blues riffs
overall, in comparison to the black album and justice, this album was total crap
just because its not thrash doesnt mean its bad
just because its not thrash doesnt mean its bad
I think all there album is great in each way. Load and Reload is there most honest albums. Its okay to not like something. But dont say its crap just because you not like like it.
Kuno Carlsberg how are they their most "honest" albums?
Because the lyrical content of the songs tends to be more introspective and emotionally resonant. Justice and Black album started this trend but it only came to full prominence with Load and songs like The House that Jack Built, Mama Said, Bleeding me, The thorn within etc. Those who solely listen to metal don't have enough knowledge and sensibility to appreciate an album such as Load. If they did, they'd realise it's better than its predecessor and nearly just as good as Metallica's best albums of the eighties.
loved all the songs in this, slow and heavvy
i love the noise james makes at 2.28 its so funny an the little sream he dose
:D
that smells like the bay area on minute 2:59.I bet is fricking tiburon,I love my hometown(san francisco bay baby)metallica are gods,thanks for the video
James. He such a different man today, they way he speaks, body language etc.
"little pen ready there, little holster for it, FUCK YEAH FUCK YEAH"
Times change, people change, but that old school Metallica intensity... shit man... Just glad I can still throw in the old shit. Wish they'd try again.
I love this album. It's great to sit on the porch on a sunny day and just blast this shit.
I love Load. I used to not like it cuz it wasn't "metal" but I recently wemt back to it amd its one of my favorites now
i think i figured it out. maybe Metallica was testing the fans to see if they like them for there thrash, or just as a musician
Totally agree with you Redd. It's Metallica's choice to have the foundation of these songs, and not Bob Rocks. They chose to go a different way and why wouldn't they. If they hadn't gone with Bob, I don't think they would still be as big as they are today. I know I would get sick of 26 years of the same thrash metal. Instead, we got to hear them playing some old covers, some almost country and western, plus some blues and rock stuff. You get a whole catalogue of music with Metallica.
yeh same here buddy!
shows how brilliant musicians they are and how they can play different types of music!
Metallica was smart to change with the times. Master of puppets would have failed in the mid 90s . It's just the fact they change with times and grow up
load and reload were kick ass
mmmrrrrrrrrggg yeeeeauuuaaaayaahhhhhhhh in yourrahhh syyyyyyyyyyeeeeeuuutahhhhhhhh
Load and Reload are my two favorite Metallica albums.
people that dont like all metallica consider them sell outs. i say true metallica fans stick behind them no matter what. and i like everything they did including st anger. METALLICA #1 ...they will never die.
So fucking cool to see these guys working on an album... Metallica is just great!
Hey people is this on dvd? Metallica are the GREATEST! peace XD
Load and Reload are good albums if you actually sit down and listen to them and don't compare them to their earlier work.
thanks very much vulturous for the post, really interesting to see!
Here they were recording Load AND Reload, both albums were made almost on the same time, Reload is almost all about unreleased songs writen for Load, just a few new ones.
That is an absolutely glorious mullet.
Plus when Metallica originally recorded all of these songs, they were 29 songs completed and almost released as one album, they decided to split 'em up and make two cd's. So a lot of Reload was already completed before it was even an album.
my first metallica album! i love it so much!
I wish there was more footage for these albums.
Metallica for us, for life and forever
awesome..Man I miss Jason
Dude working at wendys and James Hetfield pulling thru the drivethru that will freaking epic
just imagine, you are a sixteen year old kid, just listened to master of puppets before going to get the new metallica album, expecting the heaviest of metallica, and then hearing some bluesy riffs :p
I hope when they get to the remasters of these two albums that they release more awesome footage like this for every song, I HOPE they have it 👍🏽
james+ mullet= HELL YEA
Got a point there. I myself like some songs on Load/Reload, and o nRelaod The Memory Remains is one of my fav. But that's personal pref as you already said :)
Cool, I was 7 years old. Didn't know about Metallica back then, but I remember watching the Until it Sleeps video when it was released and Hero of the Day. I didn't became a fan until I was like... idk 13 though. I wish I could say I was a fan since I was 7 hahaha
Yeah, I've heard many songs of both bands and both are kickass in my opinion.
