    The scale that Kirk used for this solo (also on blackened and roam) to give it that twangy Egyptian vibe is so underrated. I hope he uses it on the new album.

    This is the lyrical essence of "...and justice for all", next to the title track. Just like a part 2 to it. "justice", "independence", "freedome"... Such an underrated, important song on this lp.

      I've been listening to that specific track on and off (mostly due to awesome hard and heavy structure, riffz and solo), but it is very hard in the lyrics department as well! That last block after the solo section is just brutal "You silence just to hear yourself", "Freedom no longer frees you"

    Am I hearing the Lars playing perfectly clean 8th notes? This is the same guy who can't use his left kick drum during the "Darkness" segment of One, right? The double bass beat that every drummer recognizes and almost all of them can play start to finish without gassing out or cramping up?

      Lars was a monster in the 80s. He was pretty good through the late 90s then started getting lazy he sounds alot better last couple years though. Around this time the entire band was on fire.

    • @tyminor9366
      @tyminor9366 Год назад +1

      Honestly man, I beg to differ. If you listen to their performance of One at the 1989 Grammys, Lars still plays:
      kick, kick, kick, snare
      kick, kick, kick, snare
      kick, kick, kick, snare
      kick, kick, kick, snare, snare
      And we all know the album version goes:
      kick, kick, kick, kick, kick, kick, snare
      kick, kick, kick, kick, kick, kick, snare
      kick, kick, kick, kick, kick, kick, snare
      kick, kick, kick, kick, kick, kick, snare, snare
      Even back then, Lars' double bass button was finicky

    • @tyminor9366
      @tyminor9366 Год назад +2

      @@jd0879 They had their hacks back in the day. If you listen closely to that performance, you can hear Jason playing the stop 'n' go pattern at the point where lars is supposed to play it alone to transition into the "darkness" segment. Its subtle but if you listen to the feel of the kicks with a good set of headphones, you can hear that the sound guy tweaked Jason's EQ to help him fill in Lars' missing notes.
      On top of that, James and Kirk would accent their parts to line up a little better with Lars. But the main ingredient was playing that part at a higher bpm so it takes a trained ear to notice. It's fairly easy to hear if you don't cut them the kind of slack they had up till the Napster thing.
      To Lars' credit though, he's getting his shit together with double bass these days. All it took was 40 years and the band threatening to replace him.
