You guys should cover atc - around the world
Boys rock the girl.... Fantastic cover
More Metallica!
Until It Sleeps
Hero Of The Day
The Unforgiven

The guitarists respect for the original notes is very much appreciated here.
So true
Guys play great. I wish this young people in the future make something as big and as inspiring as made Metallica in early 80ties.
@Derfel Cadarn but Metallica in 1983 creating 'fade to black' wasn't well-known, as far as i remember, they played in bars, gave concerts for small audience.
I think, that money and wealth should not be the main goal for people, for artists, but of course we all need them, to provide comfort living conditions.
Today, i think, artists in youtube get support through selling ads, merch, not only from selling albums.
Podrá ser que las guitarras son tan perfectas que lo que me llama la atención y sobresale es la batería? Sorry for no write in english.
I closed my eyes. I heard Metallica.
It's Rock 'n Roll
Guitar staying true to the original, the singer staying true to the lyrics, even the bass drums stayed true. This is an amazing cover. I am a nobody on the internet. But, I am a huge Metallica fan and have been for almost 30 years. You earned my like!
Concordo com você Carlão 💪
You listed literally everything wrong with this cover as a positive lmfao.
@@mingusmofaz5898 KuntFarrt
@@mingusmofaz5898how are those negatives? They kept it true to the original, that's not necessarily a bad thing.
@@thecrazynodak Because "true to original" has literally zero bearing on quality. In fact, it oftentimes means that it's a tedious, pointless reproduction that adds literally nothing and doesn't reinterpret the song in any sort of interesting way. Why even listen to it then?
The drummer is awesome. He really brought it home, hitting heavy on that bass while maintaining speed.
Rock & Roll, First211!
Definitely better than Lars
Fade to Black is my all time fav Metallica song. It takes a lot to impress me with it. You guys killed it
'Fade to black' -> Background fades to black and so does Audra's hair
That escalated quickly
ruclips.net/video/-wPEtDYga00/видео.html
Oh, the hair faded to black ..
Now I get it!
i'll cry T-T i hope that don't be permanent
Your so late lol
@Jj Moss bruh leave her alone
Jj Moss dude it’s her hair
If you watch several of these kids videos, you’ll come to realize they are incredibly talented. Each musician and her vocals are all top notch! I want to see them in concert.
This is the way to cover a song. Don't over do it. This and many other young groups are the torch bearers for rock music. Respect.
"One" could be the next Metallica Cover!!
Yeah. That riff before "Darkness imprisoning me" would be insane.
We are just one
Or Blackened.... as another homage to the new hair color.
That chick 🐣 looks way better with her normal hair status than the new dyed colour though, what can do
Yup
It is heart-warming to see the younger people keeping this older music alive and killing it too. Excellent!!!
Yes that is very true.
It's the only way that older music can survive...
lol its Metallica not Beethoven
@@Anders-B That's what I was going to say, they're still touring! I mean definitely in the "oldie" category for people born after the 80's but it's not like you have to dig their records from a site in Cairo LOL
They do it so good! Audra sings this oldies so well. Love nothing else matters and sweet child of mine covers they do too
Fade to black is in my top 5 songs of all time and while I will love the original more than any other, this one did not disappoint! It was great and I’m so happy my favorite Metallica song got done so well
LYRICS:
Life, it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now he's gone
No one but me can save myself, but it's too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
Goodbye
As an original fan of Metallica. And I still miss Cliff. You have done this song it's due justice. To the guitar player and the rest of the musicians. You nailed this song note for note. To the singer. Thank you for not going over the top on this and putting your own spin on this. This cover hit me where I live. THANK YOU. It actually brought me to tears.

Props to the lead guitar. Closest to Kirk I have ever heard.
I couldnt agree more
Wrong try the band hardwired to kill em all they are the closest
But the sound of the guitar by the chosen model doesn't fit
Oh please. Shut up
Have you heard of scream inc ?
I been a metallica fan since 82. I'm 50 and have to be honest this lead guitarist nailed it. And the vocals are awesome. Fade to black is metallicas best song in my opinion. You guys nailed it. Wtg and keep rocking 😎
The short moment from 4:52 when she lets the sound go out very slowly shows how incredibly soulful she sings. That doesn't happen in the original. Simply wonderful!
True, but that is only because she doesn't have the talent.
@@makersmark5607 she is very talented you just cant say because you dont know anything about music, dont be jealous bruh.
They're all real good but that guitarist is spot on. Excellent.
Good
Eva L
Agreed.
Ye mate!
She's maybe a little too bouncy for the subject matter. Sounds great thought!
Can we just take a moment to appreciate that white telecaster. Gotta love how it magnificently stands out with the black background.
Can we just appreciate the amazing tone he gets with the telecaster??? I never thought I'd hear Metallica on one and it's so good
Just like Jame’s white explorer he likes to use
He has mastered that guitar son!
This was the song that got me hooked to "First to Eleven" back then. Just re-listening to it again today. :)
The guitar playing is spot on. I love that it wasn't "reworked".
Одной гитарной партии в кадре не хватает.....
it was kinda reworked, its not exactly like the original but they did an AMAZING job covering it tho o7
@@spudmatix8770 its pretty much like the original
@@Nichwar19 I know, thats y i said its not EXACTLY like the original 🙂Bottom line is that it still sounds really good, which is all that should matter right? 🙂
Hard to improve on perfection lol
I grew up on Metallica and I've always loved their covers, or any cover that's well done. I love this. You kept it close to the original but made it your own. You are all exceptional musicians and the cohesion of the band is on point. Her voice is amazing and really sets this version apart from the original. Bravo!
WORD!
Those who grew up on NWOBHM realised that Metallica grew up on covers! Fortunately for them, this genre was not well known in their area, so when performing live no-one knew...
So agree with ya.. damn impressive
I dont understand why there not playing there own songs there very good
I think you guys should be on every radio in the world. You all are great at your instruments and the singing. Write your own songs and go kill it. The guitar player could be in any band out there right this second. He's that good!!
they put out original music under Concrete Castles :)
This cover made me smile. I'm a huge Metallica fan and this is a massive song to cover and you guys nailed it. Hearing this with a female singer gave it a new edge which worked so well, amazing voice. Guitar, drums and bass you all did the song respect and showed true skill. This is real talent.
Crawling or In the End for Hybrid Theory's 20th anniversary
Papercut or A Place for my head could be great too
I got to see that tour. Amazing show!
I would like to hear Pushing Me Away. ^^
In The End probably fits her voice better
id like your comment but its already at 69
As an old metalhead it's not my cup of tea, but how you gonna dislike kids paying respect to the masters?
agree...its too ligth blend....to 1st211 watch amy lee and Liliac band to have ideas on coveringf such songs
She even dyed her hair for this
One thing defeats it: Auto-Tune. The vocals are supposed to be full of grief and anger.
@@Axess-sv8nq exactly 💯
@@randomguytv5155 this getting over 500k views for a "band" that only does covers, and she doesn't even play an instrument, at least the kids from liliac do, and would do a cover 100 times better than this, but still a cover band, I like The Warning better, as far as talent they're at the top along with bandmaid
For many people this is the most important Metallica song and you honoured in such amazing fashion.
As an old metal head grew up listening to this good to to see great songs live on
Have to say, i got hooked on this band back when Heathens came out, and you guys ROCK. forever will be my favorite band keep up the work!
Ive been here since then as well. They had like 7k subs lol.
Me too bro
Heathens and Attention! The OG covers
Gotta say, Cliff would be incredibly proud of the Bassist. His notes are spot on and sound amazing. Overall amazing cover!!!
I aspire to become as good as Cliff.
METALLICA is 4ever....respected for their works all over the WORLD.
Amazing job by guitarist. It takes big balls to cover the solo of Fade to Black.
Please Do "The Unforgiven" Next!!!
Yes Please!
+
Yesss please!!
Yaps
Dont 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The awkward "I don't have any lines for a minute" sway. You're on fire, Audra! Love the hair. Great work all of you.
ruclips.net/video/tbfG-tQd2Zo/видео.html
I've listening this masterpiece at least once a month since its release. Awesome cover!
Her voice is so nice to listen to, very smooth. And the boi killing the guitar solo is a grandmaster
I've had covid twice and if it's how I go out, you'll be what's running thru my last thoughts. You made a tired 61 year old rocker believe in life again. You guys kick ass
God bless you Wayne. May you get back your health and strength. Kind regards from Germany, Keep on rocking :-) Fred
I'm gonna take a guess that Absolutely NO is your answer if they ask you if you want a vaccination.
@@Michaelobama184 Why would you guess that?
Дядь, я надеюсь ты сейчас жив и здоров и в твоих наушниках играет этот кавер.
@@Michaelobama184 late reply but vaccinations don't make you immune, just resistant.
i get vaccinated but i still got it after regardless.
Why aren’t more people talking about the insane lead guitar work in this.... that was awesome! More of the same please
The guy can legit nail any lead...great musicians
The guitar work was solid, but he played the solos basically note for note. This solo isn’t super complicated but does require some skill to play, I just wish he made it his own and the band as a whole took a little more creative license with it
Because it’s not insane? He’s an average player. He could be great one day, but right now he’s just a step above novice. I learned this entire album and master of puppets by ear back in the day. Metallica isn’t that hard to play. You can get to where he is in 1-2 years if you’re dedicated.
Lmao
That was always Metallica's strong point. It takes real balls for any guitarist to try and take on one of their harder pieces. It's not that hard to follow them on bass, or vocally, or especially on drums... but if you're gonna try to nail a heavy guitar Metallica song, you better be ready to bring it.
Hats off to the guitarist- nailed it.
I think Ride the Lighting is one of my most listened to albums of all time. And holy shit… the respect you guys put on this song.
This might be one of the best Metallica covers I’ve ever heard.
And while I’m sure folks have singled out how good every member of the band does here… that bass tone is heavenly. Saying that as a bass player though. 😅
The fact that 3 weeks in a row you guys have released songs where there's no vocals for minutes at a time, especially Fade to Black where it's truly predominately instruments, definitely betrays a massive confidence in yourselves and speaks to the strength of the band imo. When bands have an extremely talented singer who's also a captivating "frontman" and they perform and cover a lot of pop, I think it's way easier for a band to struggle and fall apart when pulling away from that strength and crossing genres (and also possible for lots of fans to be turned off even if the quality is good) but unsurprisingly you guys are amazing here. Metallica was also my first concert, so two songs of theirs is a treat. Thanks!
The guitarist is so full of vibe. It's a delight to watch him play.
Excellent! As a fellow Telecaster player, I like how you've proven those old guitars can metal with the rest.
Outro solo absolutely freaking awesome, very impressive, be proud 👍👍👍
Got to admire vocalists who can play and sing nothing for 2 whole minutes without looking awkward
ruclips.net/video/-wPEtDYga00/видео.html
3:54 to 5:03 ..that riff ...1st time i heard it in 1986 when I was 16... I knew i wanted to play guitar. Worked hard, saved my pennies, bought a nice Jackson and a Marshall amp. Then I realized, I had no fkn clue wtf i was doing.
You have now the tools..
Next is the knowledge.. goodluck.. i feel you..
ruclips.net/video/LtSSuPYcQI0/видео.html
try this one , a songs against greed
pfslik It’s not that hard to play
Suddenly I am 15 again. Riding around with friends, long unseen. An age both better and worse. So much time gone by...so many faces past and gone. I had to cry by the end. Perfect.
Oh my god, when she singed the "to the agony" it went so high and it sounded amazing!!
Audra's rockin the black hair
Audra + Metallica= perfection ❤️
F211 + Metallica = Perfection
Audra is not alone...
Yes, yes, with how much she has sung, yes
Dafuk!

This was the very first song my band back in high school covered and you guys did an astounding job on this cover!
Spectacular! Every part of it kills. Guitarist and drummer, vocal harmonies were just fantastic. Thank you guys for doing this incredible song some absolute justice. ❤️ New fan!
Recently I realised Matt's skills are so underrated.
Like what? To a beginner or what?
ruclips.net/video/tbfG-tQd2Zo/видео.html
FIrst to Eleven isn´t the band we deserve, but the band we need.
You deserve me, now go listen and bang your head in shame!
Around 5:00 is the best Metallica's solo ever, I cry from strong emotions every time I hear it ❤
The group does great respect to Metallica and proves a great group can do a great cover of them. Girl I don't know you but that was awesome vocals
First time I ever see someone play Metallica on Telecaster
So gay
@@slovencjbg8697 lol
Kirk had a tele.. he used it on motorbreath
That is a gorgeus Telecaster! I love its sound
Yeah. Hate it.
Whenever i hear fade to black, its goose bumps. Love this song and its great to see good covers like this :)
ruclips.net/video/-wPEtDYga00/видео.html
U guys rocked the life into this old masterpieces of covers..love you guys
Respect for all the musicians and the singer. Really good stuff.
She was not even born when this song was slaying now she slayed it... Big ups
She didn't slay sh*t ! Autotunes really? Come on broh..there are better covers out there.
@@shopnil4731 she actually has a good voice, plus like 80% of the covers here on RUclips use auto tune in some way it’s not like it’s blasphemy to use it
@@Nathan-ti9pm Metallica use autotune as well
@@prometheustv6558 exactly so nothing wrong with autotune
@@shopnil4731 If you listen to the OG, James' voice is tampered with as well. Get off your metallica elitist shit.
"Ride the Lightning" and especially this song saved my life. I do enjoy this version, and I'm glad the kids are keeping it going.
ruclips.net/video/-wPEtDYga00/видео.html
This has always been one of my favorite songs. And what a fantastic cover!
The most Incredible Faded to Black cover I have ever seen. You guys have nailed it! 👏 👌 🙏Thank you for keeping Rock & Roll alive
Vocalist has a very distinct voice. A nice sound. The band is tight so this is a good cover. A different but good sound !
Life it seems to fade away
Drifting further everyday
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly loss this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me but now, he's gone
No one but me can save myself, but its too late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death greets me warm, now I will just say goodbye
Goodbye
Y E S ! ! !
Thank you ! ! !
Thanks
@Mahendra Asro Damn bro these lyrics are basically a fuckin suicide note man!

Молодцы!! Всё переслушал. Что-то невероятное! Успехов, ребята!
Согласен, ребята шикарно каверы исполняютя
не согласен. не тянут на кавер!... тухляк...
Love this song. Amazing cover, guys . Thank you. Keep rocking.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again... the only thing some of these heavier covers are missing is for the chains to come off of Audra's vocals and just let her belt. As much as I love 90% of how these songs turn out, every time it hits a moment of real raw, emotional vocals you can see her face hit that in the lip sync, but the recording sound so produced, and downplayed, I feel like we haven't really seen what her voice can do, and that's a bummer. I don't know if it's a confidence thing, or a choice being made by whoever does the mixing, but I just really wanna hear what she sound like when she gets to really lean into something.
Still, great work, keep it up... I just hope some day soon we get to see the real power of that voice.
True.
The whole song sounds over produced.
Totally agree
@@crownstupid quantisized for sure in a studio.
Just missing welly to add the emotive edge. Almost.😈
She even dyed her hair black. Now that's what I call dedication
Dedication is making original music
@@fv6027 Or having a good cover... sorry i know it's just my opinion. There is a reason why there are metal covers of pop songs and not much pop covers of metal songs.
@@MrZhufor that's not what I mean. I'm tired of all these coverbands making views with the exact same songs. Originality is dead, simplicity for views is the way to go
@@fv6027 they do original songs too.
@@fv6027 and you know what has killed originality? People, people that don't support new music and if they do, it must be nowadays music, just like reggaeton and similar, but if there is anyone that create new rock music or classical music for example, the support is basically nothing, yes, you may get some support, but not enough to grow as an artist, so yes, some choose to make covers cause is the only way to play the genre you want and getting support as well, I tell you this as a musician, so please, don't say all those words without having a deep analysis over them.
This song, Nothing Else Matters and November Rain are my top 3 favorite covers from F211. Thanks for making such awesome Music/Covers.
It's great to see younger people embracing these classis songs. You all should be proud of yourselves. Great performance.
I was 5 seconds into this and already decided I liked it. You guys should do Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin next!
No... So cold!
Geoffrey Schotte dude that would actually be cool with her voice. Yes
hell yea Diary of Jane!
@@OrezParsi I like Follow me more, anyway they sould do all the musics in the world, they're insane
Yes!!!! Diary of Jane!!!
Holy shyt, this has and will always be my fav Metallica song. This is a master piece, Thank you so much for choosing this song, Love ya'll keep up the great work!
This is my all time favorite Metallica song and these guys KILLED IT!!!
I love this cover such a good job not a lot of people can cover Metallica
The guitar tone is PERFECT.
I would almost bet that is wasn't recorded on that telecaster. And the Spector NS is beautiful.
True, I was searching for sth to complain about with his tele, but nothing there to do so
ruclips.net/video/-wPEtDYga00/видео.html
I'm fairly sure it was recorded on the guitar. If you watch he is using a parsons B bender which is usually a telecaster thing. Maybe not stock pickups
One of my all-time favourite F211 covers. Brilliant.
Will never tire of listening to it. 🔥🔥🔥🤘👍👏😃
I was a kid when Metallica just started, and now a middle-aged man, it's nice to see you are carrying it on!!! I want you to do "One".
Holly Smokes!!!! not only is young lady jaw dropping beautiful her voice is just as beautiful! I came across this band last night when I was searching metal covers of Kenny Loggins "Danger Zone" and they showed up. I was up until 3am listening to them. The entire band is wicked talented! Yall need to come to Texas!!!
Metallica & First To Eleven, the perfect combination. "Fade To Black" is one of of must beautiful songs in the history. 🤘
Agreed. This song literally saved my life back in myyounger days. Oh god that makes me feel old saying that.
It's way better than the other youtube video they made roughly a week ago
The other one had bad lighting plus it was black and white so boring and drab compared to other youtube videos including this one
@@guska5523 Because the lyrics is so powerful. Impossible not to feel something. Cheers from Argentina
I love it. The song + Audra's voice + the musicians = amazing cover 🤩🤩🤩
This actually bought me to tears.....WOW guys, killed it!
This song will always hold a special place in my heart. It's the first of Metallica's songs that I learned James' parts front to back.
When I die I want this song played at my funeral. Because this is the way I feel.
Be safe and be 😎
ruclips.net/video/-wPEtDYga00/видео.html
Top shelf musicians with great attitudes and a down-to-earth vibe throughout. This is like a breath of fresh air. I give you my highest overall rating....
ruclips.net/video/877bpxJdmFw/видео.html
These guys consistently knock it out of the ballpark.
The guitar is so nice!
Super charming to my ears.
Wish this kind of music was still being made
This is one of my favorite Metallica's songs, you just covered perfectly, respects to the guitar player for making the solo notes perfectly! you guys rock, you know? Keep on Rocking, you're crushing it!! really good, I literally got goose bumps
If you are going to cover a masterpiece, you don't f**k it up. And you guys didn't! Very well done. Masterfully done if I might say so.
One of my favorite guitar intros! This guitarist really nailed it!!
One of the best covers out there. You guys deserve to be million + views for this one. 👏
Hoping for more heavier covers like this one in the future, maybe do one with a girl lead singer: In This Moment, Flyleaf, Evanescence, The Pretty Reckless, etc.... Rock needs more girl led bands so really hope your band heads in that direction.
Stop bullshiting. Rock does not need anything. If artist/band is worth it then people will listen to it.
@@pshybysz you completely missed the point. Yes I guess you can argue rock doesn't "need" anything but if you are actually a real fan and have listened to it for as long as I have (strongly doubt you have) you would agree the ratio of bigger name bands with male lead singers dominate the space as 95%+ of the bands have guy lead singers. It would be nice to have more female led bands as it would bring in more female fans to the genre. In regard to second part, no crap, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be cool if they went more the rock route when they start doing more originals as there are plenty of fans who will get behind female led rock bands. Look at Poppy for example, she gets a lot of fans and they are pushing her on Sirius Octane channel (biggest channel in N. America) as Jose Mangin who is basically the main guy there has 2 daughters and has been advocating the same thing for years, thus trying to push girl led bands into rock. With the said, obviously they need talent, but we are both fans of First To Eleven and agree on the talent part (Especially with their ages in mind) so that point is kind of mute. Hope that clears up any misunderstandings.
spiritbox ;)
@@JohnSmith-fk3fv Okay, let's go with the rock being ~95+ male vocalists being the front man of the band.
Compare Pop vocalists ratio of male:female artists.
Could the same argument be presented that more males are "needed" in the pop scene?
It would be awesome to see more women in metal, but to go as far as to say they are "needed" is a bit of an overstretch.
I have nothing against women in rock/metal, seeing as I'm a huge fan of a multitude of female led bands.
In This Moment, Arch Enemy, Jinjer, Unleash the Archers, Nightwish, Both of Lauren Babic's bands, Diamante, Flyleaf and a few others.
I'm happy to see them have as much success as they do, but to go as far to say they are needed is a bit...unnecessary.
Take into account interests, vocal range, what they are comfortable singing, how they were raised, etc.
If a female gets into rock. All the more power to her, she can fucking rock as hard as she wants. I know plenty of females who are fans of metal, rock and punk.
It takes a lot to be a vocalist in general, let alone someone who can bring the power, alure and strength to sing in rock or metal.
TL;DR: I'd love to see more femal vocalists in rock and metal, but to go as far as to say they are needed is a big leap.
You guys did a great cover. Outstanding guitarists!! 👏
One of the best Metallica covers I have heard yet. Awesome job.
Нодфп1
I've waited so long for this! Fade to Black was the first song i learned on guitar and it has been my favourite song for many years. Awesome cover.
One of my three favorite songs, being listening since I was a young boy. You did great.
ruclips.net/video/877bpxJdmFw/видео.html
Thanks for doing this song, this is my all time favorite. The lyrics and guitar riffs are so beautiful
