whoever made the decision to stick all tracks together, getting rid of the silence between tracks, is my personal hero and will have my gratitude for all eternity
Yeah dude, continuity
eu achei que ficou perfeito, melhorou bastante :)
the merge between Ride the Lightning and For Whom the Bell Tolls is just incredible
@@urallnoobs8943 just if played without RUclips ads
@@SviatoslavKaverin adblock op
The transition from ride the lightning into whom the bell tolls is excellent
Totally 👍🏻 ✅ and also then the blend into the acoustic intro of Fade to Black.
the transition from fight fire with fire to ride the lightning is better in my opinion
the transition from trapped under ice into escape
What about ffwf to rdt? That nuke drop
@@germansalas6159 exactly thank you
The tone on this is album is just disgustingly good. It's like bassy, and cold, and icy, but at the same time almost electric, and shocking, like lightning.
Said it perfectly, I always think Metallica's albums offer a different atmosphere that fits perfectly for the theme of the cover and songs. Metallica is music and feeling.
@@deletedhero5579 100% Agree. One of my friends described it how I did, and ever since I've been repping that description for the tone.
Nicely said
Yeah we've all heard Trapped Under Ice and Ride The Lightning mate, such insightful thinking hehe
Gay
That transition from fight fire with fire to ride the lightning was totally badass
Makes you want to kick somebody right in the balls
the one between ride the lightning and for whom the bell tolls is EPIC too
The best transition like ever
All of them are.
i think they're edited a bit to tighten it all up. not the original, but not bad.
I'm 48 year's old and this album still gives me goosebumps in 2022 🤟🏻
I'm 47 brother. Miss the 80s . Miss head bangers ball on MTV. Keep rocking dude .🤘
48 and still bangen my head in 2022.... on a lot better stereo lol
41 and miss the old school days
im 68 sonny, you better run faster to catch up.
@@MOAONAABE lol,,cheers
I like how there aren't any pauses between each track it makes the Album feel like one epic song
It would have been nice of RUclips to not keep interrupting the end of each song with an ad.
@@davidhusband5022 too bad no such help for smartphones :((
@@db81zg just skip the video until u have like 5 seconds left until it ends, after that just hit the replay button and you'll have an ads free video
I didnt notice that at first but you are right ! It does feel like an epic long song

@Louis Pasteur Yes, cowbells. More cowbell.
Oohhh spooky....lol
Basic training 1986. Fort Jackson South Carolina. My buddy snuck a walkman cassette player in and all we had was this LP. We passed that walkman around day after day and we were soothed by this; one of the greatest metal albums in history. Thank you Metallica!
Thank you for your service , God bless you friend.
Boot camp San Diego 91 same thing
I was doing my last 13 months at Ft.Knox when this came out. I came back with this and Ozzy Ultimate Sin. Later they toured together and I saw it. What a coincidence.
Funny, I had a walkman at Ft. Jackson in 1983! Bought Iron Maiden Piece of Mind at the PX.
My brother in arms, I was at Jackson in 83 I was in hollywood I was 45 Navajo. I really hope you didn't get tank hill brother shitty barracks
This is that kind of album that you don't skip any track because all of them are just pure gold
Fax
I don't like fade to black
@@jraarl 🤣🤣🤣 wow dude it has one of the best guitar solos of all time and the lyrics are just so profound and meaningful lol
I hate having instrumentals on the end of an album, so TCoK is the one i skip almost always
Yessir amen to that
70 years old people!!!! And I’m still Rockin and kickin ass ! Graduated High School in 1970 ,,,, My Brothers in Vietnam and I’m home Praying everyday for him .

I'm 48 and it boils my blood just ss well!@!!!!!
Me too !!! Man me too !!!!
I'm 48; brother. We grew up on good music. For sure.
6 decades, same here.
FIGHT FIRE WITH FIRE Still my Favorite Track followed by Trapped Under Ice absolutely CRUSHING!!!!!!! R.I.P. Cliff
I used to play this album so loud that one day my dad kicked my door down - so everyone else in the house could hear it.
😂😂😂
🤣
😎😎
🤣🤣
You made your dad proud, son
The most respectful people I have to thank about this album are my parents because they never destroyed my speakers though I played this album at maximum volume. That's a story about a Japanese family in 1984.
Comme les miens
lol you're even older than me, I caught them later on in 90
you must be in a retirement home by now
♥️ lol thats awesome
@@edwigesextape7254 I started listening to this stuff in like 2009 or something. Guitar Hero Metallica blew my mind lol. Metal all in all seduced me and I cant stop listening to stuff like this
From beginning to end, this was one of the best Metallica albums of all time. Who else can play a bass like Cliff, and make it sound like a guitar?
Correct. N agree
John "The Ox" Entwistle, Chris Squire, Lemmy, Jack Bruce, Les Claypool, Geezer Butler, Mike Watt, ...
Jim Schumacher from Brocas Helm can. But Cliff kills.
Steve Popson (Polvo), totally different genre, but so we're some of the others.
actually the real best
At 57 years old this piece still dynamites my brain! What happiness!
U can say that again !!!
Great my friend. I've never seen them in concert, because they don't often come to France. In those years, I remember going to see AC/DC in 1982 at Le Bourget, with YT as the opening act. A wonderful time!@@tomrocha1025
57? You're young as fuck dude!! Soul is never old when you listen to the musick that you like.
You seem to me to be a great philosopher, you.
But I don't have my translator
Sorry, man@@GeraRockAtilano
I forgot how good "For whom the bell tolls" is. One of the best metal songs ever.
after "the call of ktulu" :))
🤘 *BONG* 🤘
I forgot how good "Ride the Lightning" is. One of the best metal albums ever.
I forgot how good album "St. anger" is. One of the best metal albums ever.
@@JokerCrusty ooooooh you's trollin!
As much shit as I give Metallica nowadays, Kill Em All, Ride The Lightning, Master of Puppets and Justice are probably some of the finest thrash metal albums of all time. Long live old school Metallica!!!
They got me back with death magnetic
Death Magnetic and Hardwired are good though. Have you even given them a chance?
Is that Bruenor Battlehorn I see?
I dislike when people hat on not just this but ...And Justice for all. Fantastic albums full of amazing art, great songs, great musicians making great tunes
@@kurtward4717 Who hates on this and Justice? All of the hate seems mostly directed at Black album onward.
This album,along with Master of puppets got me into Metallica and thrash metal in general.Nearly forty years later ,they are still two of my favourite albums that I never get bored with.
Neither add nor subtract.
Me too
The songwriting and the production is just way better than the others at the time.
Can't argue with that
@@conanbardwell6760come on now.. black album was good. Just after that sucked
Still my favorite Metallica album. I wore this tape out in my first car. God those were the daze.
That intro...
@@setharkin2768 lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
Tape?
@@gilbertmata3335 yeah, weird looking little things that you can only rewind so many times before they shot Brown sticky shit all over you and the floor. Then it never plays again.
Remember how they used to print the lyrics inside the cover, they were tiny I still have mine! Lol
This is my favorite album. I always knew that if I ever had a bad day at school, a shitty job, or just a shitty day in general, I could always come home, throw on some headphones, crank up the volume and listen to it, I could forget about my problems for 45 minutes.
That`s really a great feeling.
Creeping Death is the absolute best Metallica (Thrash metal) song. The best ballad remains Fade to Black. Followed by Nothing Else Matters. ; )
I like to play along with the Bass to these songs, and get any anger I had out my system!
It's what I'm doing right now....
Damn straight, bruh! Been getting me through life for the last 36 years!
In the name of Cliff Burton, I’m here!!!
35 yrs ago today he remained forever!!
One of the best metal albums ever, Metallica indeed does deserve its place in metal history
Yes ideed
Probably one of the best albums ever made.
There are no words that can describe the genius of this album as I would like. A timeless masterpiece!
After all these years this is THE Metallica's album I always come back to and can listen from beginning to end without getting bored... An absolute masterpiece!!!
100% agreed. My favourite album of all time, it's a masterpiece from start to finish.
And justice is for all 🤟
I feel the same way about this, Puppets, and Justice. Never need to hit the skip button, just hours of metalfist /m\
Yeah this and black album. Justice for all was pretty good too, but I think this was my favorite.
Kill em all is no slouch either
Fight fire with fire : 0:00
Ride the lightning : 4:41
For whom the bell tolls : 11:14
Fade to black : 16:11
Trapped under ice : 22:57
Escape : 26:57
Creeping death : 31:18
The call of ktulu : 37:56
When I first read this I wasnt thinking properly. I was really psyched for the 11 minute version of For Whom The Bell Tolls but didnt really think Trapped Under Ice would make a good 22 minute song
Omg thank you
The call of your MOM
@@noralu9950 👍👍
@@gotanyslayer4596 No sorry, I don't.
I first heard this album at 13 yrs old in 1984 right when it came out, The best Metallica album of all time. R.I.P. Cliff Burton best bass player ever.
Haha I "borrowed" my dad's cassette tape and never gave it back!
Perfect music to toss on some headphones and grab your skateboard , take off for the whole day back in the 80’s.
Maybe it's the state of the world, but I had to come find this. I was 14 when I found Metallica in the 80's, a painfully shy girl. THIS, was another, better world. Pure fucking sorcery.
I've ridden the lightning it's pure sorcery baby
we have a simillar story...very much i heard `em when i was 14 and it was 1985th. Back in the Ussr/now it`s Ukraine and we `re fighting and will win fucking russia.
I too was 14...unfuckingbelievable album.
I was the same way when I found this jam in the mid-90’s. Shy kid. Can relate
Probably one of the best albums ever made, every song is amazing.
5 song is 6/10
Dear god that solo in Fade to Black just hits me in a way I can’t describe, it’s so melancholy it almost brings me to tears
Among other things, it is because of the same feeling that this solo triggers in me, I consider Fade to black to be the best Metallica song, and the whole Ride the lightning to be their best album.
As for me, this is one of those albums that I treat as one track ;) which once turned on will play until the end... xp
But of course that's my opinion ^^
Have a nice day everyone 🖖😎
Unforgiven for me but I struggle to pick favourites off this the and the black album. master of puppets for me will always be the best
And then for who the bell tolls starts FML I can't pick favourites off any of them albums 😂
It hits different
call of ktulu is simply one of the best closing songs for an album in my humble opinion
I love call of ktulu
I favor ride in every area over master except for 1. Orion! Has my heart.
YEEEEEEEESSS
@@briandzwoniarek8952 I love this and Orion but not Anesthesia Pulling Teeth
@@elijahbrink4596 Valid. I like Anesthesia, but it is a bit of an acquired taste
This is pure raw METALLICA. When they where at their best.
That and kill'em all... Master of Puppets is great also in it's own way. They really took more time on making it than the first 2 albums. 120 days in Amsterdam I believe is what it took they said. All three have their own type of energy and rage that was the days of headbangers ball. Kids now probably wouldn't understand what that is.
D: master of puppets?
'80s Metallica is the shit, this album changed my life. I still remember the day I first heard this album.
@@hitekrednek1552 holy shit that's exactly what I like. Nice to see someone like me.
My neighbors liked this so much they invited the cops, than the cops arrested the neighbors.
Every song on this album is insanely good, but Creeping Death, hands down was (is) one of the greatest kick-ass rockers they ever did!
I came here just for a dose of that.
Words like 'epic' have lost their power but that is one epic monster killer.
Favorite album ever made by far. Saw them live in Cleveland, so close they could spit on me.. they may have, I wouldn't have noticed. Life changing concert.
This concert back in the day was freaking BA! Almost 40 years later, I can still feel it ✌🏼
The guitar tone is so damn gorgeous
@@BigTony-bf5jr I read somewhere that they edited the audio to make it a little sharp from 440hz to fit with the bell in For whom the bell Tolls. I think thats it.
The "bell." is actually Lars hitting an anvil as per Flemming.
@@BigTony-bf5jr 445hz on about half of the album.
@@luizgehm9476 it’s all sped up thats why it all sounds slightly sharp
@@BigTony-bf5jr He was talking about tone, not tuning
Unpretentious, raw, teeth-grinding, pure metal...The music of my youth growing up in the 80s. As I approach 50 years young I can safely say that the music of Metallica hasn't lost it's impact on me.
This is an ageless and peerless masterpiece that should be a compulsory experience played at a deafening volume in school.
So many emotions flow through me listening to this in full 1st time in years.
This album steeles me, exhilarates also close to tears out of appreciation.
Currently pumping with a nice Vino in the garden full of various birds.
I assure you all they respect It!
RIP Cliff
Incidentally my father is named Cliff
Dig It Fuckers!!!!
The transition from fight fire with fire to ride the lightning sounds so good
Master of Bassists
RIP Mr. Burton.
A masterpiece. The first 3 Metallica albums are the holy bible of metal riffing. And hammet is the most underrated solo guitar player of all times maybe there exist better technicians, but his Solos are compositions for it alone
@@dazedviking3286And Justice for All (not injustice)= no Cliff. The riffs on Justice all sound hollow and they even admit that at times throughout their history in interviews. Cliff was the person who went back over the songs and smoothed out the rough edges and without him they really didnt have much as has been proven with the objective decline of their music since he left this world . The best song on Justice is pieces of what Cliff was messing with. To Live is to Die is the last glimpse of what Metallica could have been. It is no mystery why they stopped using harmonies in their rhythms when they ran out of Cliff knowledge. Not a single person in that band today knows music theory but Cliff did and it shows in the music they made after. Metallica only has 3 albums that are Cliff driven and Justice really isnt one of them. Cliff is Metallica
@@Blumkinsalad1 preach bro. Nothing but facts. Metallica never would have been what it was without Cliff 🤘
@@Blumkinsalad1 you seem to clearly know more about music and guitar than me. My favorite Metaliica album is Kill Em All simply because of how raw and groundbreaking it was.
I had the cassette tape of Ride The Lightning and I honestly never liked side 2 of that album very much even to this day. I honestly wish they never recorded Fade to Black.
Master of Puppets is an all time great record of course with track after track of awesomeness.
However, I would maintain that the guitar playing and the riff work on And Justice are unparalleled in the canon of Metallica. I get what you are saying about how Cliff "smoothed out the rough edges", but And Justice is chock full of awesome licks that you will find no where else.
It was the last record (at least for a loooong time) where Metallica pursued lengthy songs with complicated structures and it begins with track 1 Blackened, which is one of my all time top 5 Metallica songs. Blackened has multiple time signature changes and Hetfield and Kirk are playing their asses off on it. I can go on and on about And Justice. For me that record is an end of an era as Metallica went downhill for a long time for me after And Justice and so ithold a special place for me. Having said that, I would rank it behind Kill Em All and Puppets, but ahead of Ride the Lightning
@@fishbone3333 Quite totally agree with you. I am a fan from '80s. The Black Album killed it. Never looked back, haven't even listened their albums after the end lol. There exists Kill em'all, Lightning, Puppets, Justice and Garage Days of course for me only lol, and the VHS Cliff em' all, which was fucking priceless in the '80s.
@@Blumkinsalad1 I agree with what you said about Cliff 120%. Metallica ended when Cliff was no longer around. But chords in themselves are harmony. In fact they are created by harmonizing the major scale or whatever scale you are using. Impossible to not use harmony if your playing more than one note at the same time. I was at the Long Beach show when they opened for Ozzy with Cliff. Not long after that I was at the Country show that was Jason's first gig with Metallica. They played all the songs Cliff had been on and it didn't sound the same. They didn't have any of the And Justice For All material yet since they were in the middle of the Master of Puppets tour still. I have seen them on the Justice tour and another time after that each time they were not as good as the last. I hear kids say Metallica is back after hearing the last record. Impossible Metallica ceased to exist when Cliff did. This band only has the same name. There are a number of factors involved compounding the issue as well. How can you play like you did when you were broke and starving and had everything on the line when your now worth $145 million and your band is worth $1 billion? It's a different era. Those days of greatness are gone and it is what it is. Cliff would have left if they were gonna get commercial like they did and formed his own project and would have been heavy. R.I.P. With Cliff there were no MTV videos. It was all die hard fans. These days all kinds of people say they are Metallica fans. I'm not knocking them for being successful but people need to separate the three versions of Metallica. I think they came up with certain genre of fans for a reason and all that made them who they are success wise today was done on the first 3 releases. I know they had an E.P. before.
The Best album of Metallica! 🤘

Dude, this album is un-fricking-believable. I love how some of these songs had some real emotion put into it, no joke.
Cliff growling on the chorus and spelling the word "Die" on the bridge of creeping death: just a first glimpse of death metal.
Forever loving Cliff Burton.
Right on.

Legends never die!!!!!
nah Death metal already kinda existed back in 1984 Celtic frost, bathory,venom etc
Metallica literally is my therapy. They changed my life. When I'm having an episode "" anger "" bi-polar, anxiety, PTSD, panic attack, manic, depression ECT ECT . I listen to MetallicA and they calm me down. I try and keep up but I get worn out. I love them 1982-2023.. TRAPPED UNDER ICE...
You ok, bro?
R.I.P. Cliff Burton One of the Best Metal Bass Players of All Time
Did you make an idol of him ? ) Seems like a religious bigotry

The transition from Fight Fire With Fire to Ride The Lightning is so satisfying
Yeah and the one between trapped under ice and escape
They ripped Dave Mustaines riffs off love metallica but megadeths a way better metal band all i hear on killem all and ride the lightning is megadeths speed and tempo
@@fenjiman4294 Go listen to Megadeth then.
@@fenjiman4294 It's probably because Dave Mustaine was an actual member of Metallica in 1982, which is around the time Kill 'Em All was made. If you look online, Dave Mustaine is credited for most of Kill 'Em All and some of this album.
True its both a one song
It's amazing these guys were in their early 20s when they made this album.
I think they were actually 19 which is incredible
This album hits you differently the older you get so it's always worth hearing. I'm 92.

underrated or underappreciated
@@freekyd4551 both
Amazing frikken solos! Holy smokes
Never been a Metal fan but *The call to Ktulu* is a spiritual experience for real.
my favorite Metallica album💗
80's thrash metal! What a time to grow up in.
the best time
Good times, the musics better now though I think in honesty IMO, just more skilled and varied on the whole (of course classic shit like this is epic, bands like SODOM rei-venting thier own sound as often as we fart, must have been related to Quorthorn or whatever he was called, Bathory - 3 metal sounds under his belt?!?) and I say that as somebody who used to get the shit kicked out of me for being one of the only local "Rockers" lol - long hair and Seps patches - verboten. Not too often though in my defence, brawls were pretty common though, douchey kids being so tribalistic and small minded - the Metal heads were listening to classic stuff, Thrash, Groove Metal and Grunge were coming in, but we'd listen to Gabba, Prodigy all sorts of mental stuff. 80's Reggae and Classical music ffs. We listenend to everything. Pop tarts and ravers wouldn' listen to anything but electronica. Cool, we liked it too but it was so petty. Kraftwerk, another band we liked lol.
I think Metal heads are generally more intelligent, can appreciate nuance more. We dig passion and are eclectic more often as not certainly and if we're talking about damn POP music.. Well. At least the 80's were catchy and post punk, now it's all processed shite, always been boy bands in the 80's, 90's and chick ballads (nowt wrong with female singers - Blondie to Arch Enemy, Dead Eyes See no Future was great, but so is Denis Denis lol).
I'm having 'Fade to Black' played at my funeral. (But, not yet!!) It's in my will. EVERYONE has to sit and listen to IT ALL!!
Good.
[Will I be invited?]
That song was played at my dad's best friends funeral in the mid 90's
Awesome.....
@@eriadin Of course; spiritually, if not physically. All are welcome.
@Dave Mustaine Yes, of course - all are welcome.
The transition from the title track to For Whom the Bell Tolls is badass
...2024, and it's still a real delight to my ears...
BOC?
"jurisdictional" issue
i remember my older cousin used to pick me up and go to his highschool partys and roll up to the party listening to the ride the lightning album in black jackets thinking we were so badass
YOU FUCKING WERE
Man I still jsm it and roll up anywhere thinking im a badass.Good shit
Anyone listening to this album is fucking badass!!🤘
yu still ar badass master sheefoo
YOU WERE
My favorite story about this album is the song "Escape." Originally, the band only had 7 songs finished and recorded for RTL. The producer said they needed another 4ish minutes or else this album would be an EP. They didn't want that. So, they wrote and recorded Escape in less than a day. That's why it's the simplest song on this album; every other song has got layers of complexity, and then there's Escape, the bastard child of the record.
Escape is a good track.
"Escape" is one of my favorite Metallica songs. This is a cool story to know though.
@@nickcarroll5034 Escpae is a good song. The band disagrees because they rarely play it.
@@SheaRoberts I like Escape. But it’s the shortest and easiest on the album and the band rarely plays it
Yet it's my 3rd favorite song off the RTL album.
1. Fight fire with Lars
2. Ride the Lars
3. For Whom the Lars tolls
4. Fade to lars
5. Trapped under Lars
6. Larscape
7. Creeping Lars
8. The call of Lars
Holy lars……The bassless due

Hands down, my favourite album of ALL time. Listening on a decent pair of headphones with a beer in hand, it always blows me away how hard "Fight Fire with Fire" kicks the shit out of you when that riff comes in. Masterpiece.
Absolutely! Will not forget how that sounded, when it came out, nothing like it. Couldn't believe what i was hearing!
It gets me every fucking time. 🤘
Gives me chills all the damn time
I love Metallica!❤ This album is a masterpiece!
As a child I thought WOW, as an 49 yr old I'm still mesmerized. Complete work of art. This brings back so many feelings and thoughts about everything.
Just realized that each ordered track represents a type of death:
N - Nuclear Holocaust
E - Electric Chair
W - War
S - Suicide
T - Trapping Ice
E - Escape *
(A) - Angel of Death
D - Demon/Demigod (of Cthulhu)
---
Note: After Burton's untimely death in '86, Jason Newsted joined Metallica. Newsted is actually a less common variation of the English surname Newstead.
* Escape is the only exception, there is no death.
If you realized this by yourself, you’re a genius
his name is Newsted not Newstead
@@adrito_talukdar Thanks. Edited original comment.
I was just 19 when this came out and in those days you bought albums at the local record store and pretty much everything new was you buying the album before hearing it. I spent maybe 4 or 5 weeks staring at the cover until I decided to buy it. Really happy I did and really I found new bands by doing this. I think I bought several hundred albums which more than 75% were keepers. I had a 1970 Chevy Impala all primer gray with a rebuilt engine and trannie and I would blare out For Whom the Bell Tolls cruising the mall and the looks I got were always legendary. In those days people mostly listened to Pop and New Wave and to hear this sound through an Alpine system was priceless. I miss those days. Today, the Hip Hop sound is so awful with the crap they are playing it through. Damn, I swear the bass is so high that their car sounds like it's about to fall apart:-)
Lol You had me at Alpine
Good rant pops ! 😏
Legendary riffs, crunchy guitar tone, this is my Metallica!
Let's be Fr Cliff Burton stole the spotlight on this album his Bass playing on here is just on another level

@@mikeharvey8057 even though i don't like bass, that's disrespectful. cliff is probably the best bass player of all time. it's Metallica's bass player.
@@mikeharvey8057 You ain't a real metal fan if you do NOT know who Cliff Burton is! 🤦♂️🤦♀️
there is no way women can create songs like this. This is the true strength of men. women under men no one can overcome, so don't let women ruin the man's life
Bien parler 🤘🏻😈🎸🔥
Thanks for the memories. Fade to Black and Creeping Death will never get old for me. RIP my old friend Richard (Heart attack).
When I was a teenager before I had heard any real metal yet, I had an idea in my head what metal should be/what kind of music I wanted to hear. But I had not yet heard anything that was quite it, yet. Then one day at school I was sporting my boombox and playing some, almost metal. Like Twisted Sister, Quiet Riot. Then someone comes up and says "You got to check this out." And they put a Metallica Ride The Lighting cassette into my boom box. And I was like "This is it! This is what I've been wanting to f...ing hear!" And I was an instant super fan. Then when "Master Of Puppets" came along and they went on tour it was the first live show I'd ever seen and they played at the Orpheum theater down town Minneapolis on May 28th, 1986 and my birthday is June first and I got two tickets for my birthday. The Best Birthday present ever! I still have my ticket stub from that night.
that's an amazing memory to have. who got you the tickets?
@@painstruck01 Oh it was mom. She told me she would get me the tickets on one condition that I cut my hair short because she wasn't a fan of me growing my hair so long I didn't hesitate, of course I cut it. My hair grew back fast I didn't care. The tickets were only 12:50 each.
We have the same birthday cool 😄
I'm 15 and I just saw them for my first time at louder than life 2021

its 2022 now and i can never get sick of this.....love this!
Fade to black is among their best songs ever!
I have to agree..... A lot of really good ones. Fade to Black is one of the best for sure.
Fade to Black is my rank list song is 8249 for 110 000 +/-
It's true that this album has 1. James' best vocals, 2. Kirk's best solos, 3. Cliff's best playing, 4. The most monster songs, and 5. Lars was doing OK, as well. But can we take just a minute to recognize the impact of producer Flemming Rasmussen. Rasmussen produced Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and ...And Justice for All. Jump to Bob Rock for the Black album and notice the drastic change in sound? Rasmussen was an important element of the O.G. Metallica sound. Imagine what might have been if he had produced the Black album.
The band hired Bob Rock because that's who they wanted. The band said they liked the way Motley Crue's album Doctor Feelgood sounded (produced by Rock) and they wanted a sound like that. They wanted something slicker that would get more radio play. It was their choice all the way.
Yeah, they hated their own song “Escape”, saying it felt like they were selling out because it was too commercial. Then they go all-in on the money train with commercial music and the destruction of Napster. It didn’t take very long for Cliff’s anti-establishment influence to disappear.
Black album is still 🔥
James' best vocals? C'mon....
I do like the older albums more, no doubt, but I kinda like that they changed it up. Kept things fresh.
What a year for hard rock/metal back then: Metallica's 'Ride The Lightning', Iron Maiden's 'Powerslave', Queensryche's 'The Warning', Judas Priest's 'Defenders Of The Faith', Anthrax's 'Fistful Of Metal', Van Halen's '1984', Ratt's 'Out Of The Cellar', Scorpions' 'Love At First Sting', Deep Purple's 'Perfect Strangers', Dokken's 'Tooth and Nail', my goodness the list just goes on AND ON (O_O)...
we where spoiled...truly spoiled
Amen bro
Yeah dude…now metal is fucked…and we are living in a metal nightmare…just like they told us we would…2008 I know but throw Nostradamus by Judas Priest into it…poignant….

I'm 53, I was like 13 or 14 when this album came out and it still rocks. Seen them for master of puppets right before the accident in Bethlehem PA. They were so loud they cracked the foundation of the arena. They were the band that got me listening to heavier music.
I just love the tone they used on this album more than anything.
Hot rodded Marshalls, I prefer this tone to the the Mesa Boogie MOP and onwards tone.
The transition from Ride the Lightning to For Whom the Bell Tolls is amazing
it was Cliff
Thank you for stitching the tracks together instead of just ripping the album normally. The transition between Ride the Lightning into For Whom The Bell Tolls gives me shivers.
It's the best album from Metallica all-round.
please don't end, let them play forever

Same!

For whom the bells tolls gives me crazy goosebumps on blast in the headset , it's a song I kinda brushed off over the years but damn
@@danielives379 58 for me and still love this..,
Yes sir!
Absolute timeless classic thrash masterpiece which easily withstood the test of time, hard to believe this came out in 1984 because this literally sounds like something that could have been composed this year of 2022.
Started listening to Metallica at 15…blew my mind they started around the age of 13..and were already about 18 when I found them. Time..memories..truly a world of escape, sometimes bright..sometimes dark. I’ve seen them live 6 times. Truly an epic group that creates a energy not many can do. Last time I saw them was a Saturday in Vancouver..while they were filming some kinda monster…gm place..it was like we were all “one”..the entire audience screaming “whooo” while pumping their fists in the air..all in unison..sent shivers down my spine…still..never understood why they didn’t put that in the movie!
This is part of the soundtrack to my teen years.
I love this album! Love the sound of Cliff! He will always be missed but never forgotten.
True
A Riff & Tone master & musicianship level through the roof. Best metal bass player ever.
Hey Pete Morrison I have Cliffs sister on my Facebook she always post' photos of Cliff her name is Connie Burton friend request her and maybe she will add you. 🤘🏼👀🤘🏼
cliff who?
Lol nobody gives a shit about the bass
My dad used to play the cassette in his f- 150 with a 8 band eq and custom speaker boxes he made with friends as loud as he could when I was a kid. R.I.P. Raymond Jones
I realize the greatness of an album like this and of all the four early Metallica albums, but I need to go against the general belief of the day one Metallica fans and proudly assert that, besides the "dreadful one", Metallica has never really released a bad album in their 40-year old career, some are just BETTER than others. Ok, the nu-metal experience was a disaster the band itself recognizes, but they found a way to develop their own mix of trash and heavy metal that actually is as heavy and agressive as it is catchy and addictive. Last album is a masterpiece, with one banger after another. Yes, the music is not half as agressive as it was in the 80's, but come on, the guys are much older nowadays, they can't keep feeling the same way they did when they did "Kill" or "Master" or "Justice".
All in all I'm glad to be able to appreciate most of what Metallica did as a band, not being a judgmental or prejudiced guy for music (actually, being an "eclectic" guy helps to appreciate the evolution of the band) I can recognize a band perpetually evolving and changing their sound, instead of repeating the usual mantra ("sell-outs") for the billionth time.
Thank you! As a relatively new metal fan, it's so hard watching everyone say that Metallica "Sold out" or that they've "Lost their edge" after the Black album, or even after AJFA.
Well said man, pretty close to how I feel myself about them and the matter of their evolution through time , of which they've surely proven to more than stand the test of strong and loud. I may not listen to anything made after load hardly ever to be honest , but it's not because I think it's necessarily bad music that theyve made since , it is good music , it just simply isn't necessarily what I prefer to listen to , but I don't think there is anything wrong with that. Couldn't have said it all better than you did my friend so thank you for putting that comment out there, people need to read it and accept it for what it is , you eother support them as a whole package deal or you don't , it's not something you can only support a fraction of , it dont work like that in my personal opinion.
This is one of the greatest pieces of music ever made. From front to back. Perfection
My wife doesn't understand metallica shes says its depressing but in the late 90s it made me succeed in my life and through the last two years of restrictions in the uk for me and my kids when the "tallica" goes on I feel great.
Metallica between 1982 and 1991 were perfect and the year in the life of videos are timeless they bring a tear my eye.
there's a lot of metal i'd describe as depressing but Metallica is not one of them
I had a friend who said the same thing but I love it. This is what got me through my teenage years. Metallica always was and always will be my favorite band since 1990.
God if she evered listened to Entombed she'd have an existential crisis
@@wtc5198 Ehhhhh, the whole band, no way, but they have absolutely made some depressing songs.
The TikTok advert right in the middle of the ride the lightning breakdown really makes this album 🤣
