You have go listen to "wherever I may roam" by Metallica and "Seek and Destroy" And you have to hear the first 4 four albums of "Pantera" they had similar styles. Then they switched styles. Pantera and Metallica are the best.
For an old-school rock fan like me, the best way to rediscover songs I have loved for decades is to watch younger people hearing the music for the first time. It always makes me remember the first time I listened to that song. I ALWAYS watch new reactions from you guys. Keep it up, there are many more bands from the genre that are just as hard waiting for you to discover them.
Creeping Death is considered by many to be their best song ever. They play it live, the crowd chants "DIE, DIE, DIE" over and over again. It's amazing! Seen them 3 times.
You guys should definitely check out their performance of this in Russia in 1991. Their former bassist Jason Newsted does amazing live backing vocals for the track, there were over 1 million people in attendance, and loads of people from the Soviet Union hearing metal for the first time and losing their minds over it
Their last album “hardwired” is pretty heavy and great. They really went back to their heavier side. They still tour. They still make great music. They are just amazing.
Shout out to Eddie Munson for turning you guys on to Metallica! You guys are real cool, I'm really enjoying hearing what you have to say. As a 52 yr old metal head, it's such a joy to see people who missed this movement understanding why we went so hard for these bands. Come to Brooklyn and we can check out some live metal shows! Peace.
Same here just turned 20 and within the past couple months got into bands like Pantera, Black Sabbath, Death , obituary and slayer. Even just picked up my first 4 String bass
As good as the album tracks are, Metallica was meant to be heard LIVE! Check out the concert from Moscow in 1991. It was the country's first chance to go to a big rock concert and they had the biggest crowd in history (1.6 million).
Apparently you haven't been paying attention and watching their reactions. The first reaction they did of Metallica was their Enter Sandman from the 1991 concert about 6 months ago.
Thank you guys for introducing me to all different types of music! Love your reactions! If you ever need a suggestion, you guys should listen to the rock band, Stryper, and start with their the song Yahweh! It's a real banger! Thank you!
Ride the Lightening came out the year I was born. At 14, I listened to ...And Justice for All to help cope with my mother's death. I'm now a therapist with PTSD learning how to play all the Cliff Burton songs for my own mental health. Every time I've heard a new Metallica song, my face and actions looked so much like you guys! Love, peace and metal from Minnesota! ✌️❤️🤘
Lead singer James Hetfield was raised very religious so he put a lot of that in their music that and about losing his religion… you guys are stayin consistent and really hitting all genres, keep grindin!
@@jeffmurphy1886 Yea and the subject matter comes from watching the movie ten commandments in the studio. I think when cliff saw the fog in the movie he said "it's like creeping death!" Also ironic that the song is based on a stoey in Exodus when the song was written by a guy in Exodus
watching this song live is amazing .. the "die, die, die" bridge is epic... they drop down to just the drums and bass and let the crowd chant for a few bars before coming back in with the full band... so epic to hear 30,000 people chanting "die" to that riff
You guys should check out the live version of this in Moscow '91. They performed in front of a crowd of 1.6 million people. It was the Monsters of Rock concert. All you can see is a sea of people that doesn't end.
So cool that you read the history. “Let my people go” I can’t say thank you enough to you guys for bringing back all these good memories of growing up for me! I know that I can click on any of your videos and instantly be put in a good mood. I have gotten everyone around here addicted to you and the intelligence of your reactions. You are all so open minded. Of all the songs you have been listening to, primarily rock, what would you compile as a top ten list for your own personal listening or what would make the cut for the best work out playlist. I made my uncle a work out compilation and a good chunk of it was old Metallica.

My day started f#*Ked up as hell. Decided to watch some RUclips and now I have the biggest smile from ear to ear. I even got the goosebumps during your reaction to Metallica's CREEPING DEATH. Thank you. Disposable Heroes next please. Con mucho respecto y Amor 🖤🤘
I am 49. I have been listening to Metallica since I was 14. Their first 3 or 4 records are absolutely their best. But Ride teh Lightening has always been my favorite. Even now I get chills hearing these tunes. SO GOOOD!!
No Leaf Clover is one of my personal favorites from them and includes a live orchestra as well. The Unforgiven, Orion, and Welcome Home (Sanitarium) also definitely worth a listen.
So glad to see a younger generation finding Metallica. I grew up listening to these guys through the 80's and early 90s. I remember when the black album dropped, my high school building shook a little. Everyone that I knew had that cd in rotation. You guys should react to Disposable Heros from the Master of Puppets cd, imo is a top 5 song for them.
As a kid growing up in the late 80s and early 90s my parents loved music of all genres and they made sure we grew up listening to everything. My dad is who introduced me to Metallica at a young age and that was it for me. They have been my favorite band ever since.
Love when metal gets more recognition. I love new fans as well. Metal for life 🤘🏽👍😎🙏. Metal music and rap music is awesome. Extreme music is fucking awesome.
I'm a middle aged guy out here in Hawaii, and I have to say that I enjoy watching reaction videos of the younger generation listening to music that I grew up listening to. I enjoy the videos! Please keep 'em coming. "One" is my personal favorite Metallica song.
I can remember riding with my son Daniel and his friend Kasey to SC Village to paintball and listening to this on our way there, stopping at jack in the box for some breakfast sandwiches for the boys. Sadly, they went home to be with our Lord in July of 2016; vehicle accident. Thanks Cartier Family for the memory - God Bless
The song Ride the Lightning is about a guy going to the electric chair. It's the title track, and to me the best song the album. I would listen to this in my room as a teenager and picture the whole experience in my head. It was totally mind blowing. Rock and most metal is pretty deep. That's part of my love for it. The lyrics.
Greatest song they ever wrote. And that's saying a lot, especially since it's their 2nd album. Incredible. The energy this song has live though, oh man, mad hype
Bought my first Metallica album ( Kill'Em All") a few months after it came out....just for reference To me...their best album is Ride.....all the others are meh
The man behind this song was Cliff Burton, who was well-learned and felt this would be a great topic for a metal song. Nothing says brutality like Old Testament God.
I think this might be the best song off of this album. Fade to Black is also legendary and For Whom The Bell Tolls is a classic, but this song just SLAYS!
Best concert I ever went to was back in 89' when Metallica was part of the Monsters of Rock tour. There were 5 bands total that played that day in front of 80,000 people, and it was wild!!! The band's that played were Van Halen, Scorpion's, Dokken, Metallica, and Kingdom Come. Metallica was the heaviest and best out of the 5, but that's just my opinion. Overall a kick ass concert!!!!
I've loved Metallica since I was a kid in the 80's. Tons of great music. Want to check out something crazy, they have done concerts with a symphony too. Check out the S&M album. The main song for that album was No Leaf Clover.
I love watching the sheer enjoyment you guys are getting from it. Im 52. Was 18 then. Dude in the red you can see by his facial expressions. My man in the blue is rookie headbanger slowly graduating to be a pro. You all need to grow dreads and let the hair fly. Like us white boys grew our hair and headbanged. Its a great release of energy. Especially if you had a bad day. You guys rock
I just stumbled upon your channel recently and have been having such a good time watching you guys! You guys look like a super fun crew to hang with. I’m a super music nerd. I wanted to suggest, since you’re all into Metallica, that you might explore some other 80’s bands from Metallicas genre, Thrash Metal. Some bands to check out, Exodus ( that was started by Kirk Hammett, Metallicas guitarist), Sodom, Megadeath, Slayer, Suicidal Tendencies, or Anthrax…. So many more. I’d love to watch you guys trip on some of those, hahah! Crazy, but incredibly musically talented. Keep doing your show, it’s so fun! You guys are fun!
I just watched your first Metallica reaction followed straight away by this one...this was amazing. Bunch of dudes first getting exposed, sorta feeling it, then straight into full-on fandom.
One of my favorite things about youtube will ALWAYS be watching people from other walks of life, different musical tastes, openly explore and examine music that I love. Good times. I always have fun watching your guys' reactions.
If you want to hear one of the best openings to a metal album ever you should check out Fight Fire With Fire off of this same album. It has got to be one of their hardest songs they ever made.
Prior to that, I never heard a guitar riff so fast and brutal. My 13 year old mind was blown to pieces! From that day forward, they were my favorite band.
any song prior to 1990, you guys should do a review from the "live SHit Binge and Purge - Seattle" Concert - metallica live is a different beast! I Enjoy your effort to learn the meaning behind the lyrics and album.
It’s a really weird experience to be an “old” Metal head watching these boys discover songs. They could be my sons. It’s wild. Boy is the hockey shirt is mega extra 😂. I’m not sure how you grow up with so much tech and music at your fingertips and not get a little curious. Glad y’all are having fun and checking things out now. Better late than never. Theologically speaking this song isn’t completely correct/in order of what happened in Exodus, but makes for great subject matter. Love to see what you fellas think of Symphony of Destruction and Peace Sells by Megadeth. Also recommend Vote with a Bullet by Corrosion of Conformity. Could give you 1,000 Recommendations. Be well. Do your homework. Eat your veggies. Say your prayers. Peace out.
I'm a 52 year old white man I am surprised and happy seeing you young black men enjoying the music I have loved. I am excited to see what you do with the influence of that music. Maybe you can make great rap songs again!!
Great reaction as always guys, some other great songs from bands I'm sure will hype you up also: Bring me the horizon - 1x1 Staind- been a while Fuel - shimmer
I've been watching all of your videos. The dude with the red hat is the most real dude here. He is legitimely trying to understand everything. This dude is metal. Sorry for the bad english, cheers from Brazil!
Metallica are still touring and throwing out albums in 22 and they just get better and I've seen them live 3 times over the years And last time with my son who is 26 and I first seen Metallica when I was 17 that same year I saw megadeth at donington monsters of rock in 1988 and slayer in Glasgow iron maiden Edinburgh with killer dwarfs Celtic frost UK was full of metal thrash bands
So glad you did this one. People make assumptions when they see the title, never actually listen to what it’s really about. One of my faves from Metallica.
Seriously you guys could have your own channel on just Metallica reactions it’s crazy how many people I wanted to listen to this stuff when I was growing up but no one would ever give it a chance. Thanks for starting this channel. And by now y’all have to realize that they are the goat.
"Spit Out The Bone" next! Its a BANGER. Also I would love to see you guys react to some of Metallicas most legendary live shows! (Seattle, Mexico City etc.)
@@DerEchteBold isnt "really" Metallica... "DerEchteBold" defines what metallica really is, thanks for the enlightment. If its not your type of tea, okay I respect that. I also highly prefer the first five albums but if you think anything after 91 isnt "really" Metallica, you have no idea what the band really is and stands for. By the way, Spit out the Bone is more thrash and "oldschool-Metallica" than anything on the black album.
@@xKisukeX96 More Thrash? Well, that's the problem right there! They should've gone with their new style and develop from there or just quit, instead of trying to relive their youth ever since, failing over and over, putting out yawn after yawn, becoming a pale copy of themselves. I tried listening to that last album with an old friend and we were bored to death halfway through. Just listened to the song you named just to be sure and yeah...It has a few nice moments but stll pretty pointless overall, why would you want to listen to that when there's the first 5 albums?! C'mon, seriously, you just listened to Creeping Death here, compared to that the other song is just some entirely unremarkable messing around, it's somewhat fast, that's cool, but that alone doesn't help much.
@@DerEchteBold They have the right to stay at their Thrash Metal Style. If you want Metallica to Evolve, why you dont speak about the Load und ReLoad or Garage Ära ? Even the St.Anger Ära is very unique. Its not really Nu Metal and not really Thrash Metal, something in between just like System of a Down a Own Cup of Tea and it Rocks !
Great reaction! My old punk band used to cover this song. Our guitar player was a super metal head and nailed the solo note for note. People usually left for our set. They came back when we played this song. Then left after. We still kicked ass! And so does this song! And so do your reactions!
The album cover is inded an electric chair getting struck by lightning. Greatest album cover of all time. The title track is a song speaking out against the death penalty. One of the lines in the song is "Who made you god to say: I'll take your life from you."
Great reaction guys. Yes there’s a lot of the Bible in metal. Metallica lead guitarist Kirk Hammetts band before Metallica actually is named Exodus. They still tour also
Absolutely love what you guys are doing…keep opening eyes and ears to other forms of art to help unite us all! God knows we need help from within ourselves to accomplish unity, because there are way too many forces purposely trying to divide us for their own benefit!
So late to this. Got introduced to Metallica thru a copied cassette tape passed around our tiny Midwest town. Masking tape bearing the name Metallica in handwritten pen. Fantastic memory the first time you hear them. So glad you found them.
Love y'all's videos. I'm a huge Metallica fan, so seeing someone experience them for the first time is awesome!!! And the energy y'all have is perfect!!
Just found you guys. First metallica video one of you guys said you could see the people there headbanging, now here you all are, headbanging along. Love it
Remember this song when I was a teenager growing up in rural Indiana. Went swimming with a bunch of friends on a hot summer night. This song was blasting on the radio and the guys(they had super long hair) were head banging in the car singin “Dry, Dry my hair!” Instead of die. Good times!
Hey guys chers from Sweden. I love your reactions it brings me back to the 90' s when i first discovered Metallica. Even though you dont always understand the music i appreciate u branching out from compton :D
Metallic is the 🐐
Facts
Appreciate y’all giving them a chance. Perfect workout music for sure
Do Chamillionaire ridin dirty
Megadeth is the 🐐‼️
You have go listen to "wherever I may roam" by Metallica and "Seek and Destroy"
And you have to hear the first 4 four albums of "Pantera" they had similar styles. Then they switched styles. Pantera and Metallica are the best.
You can never hear your favorite band again for the first time... but you can enjoy watching others hear it for the first time and its beautiful
Exactly
Living vicariously
So well said!
Can you imagine them going to a metallica show and get to the DIE! Die! chant?
That's the entire reason why I watch reaction videos.
For an old-school rock fan like me, the best way to rediscover songs I have loved for decades is to watch younger people hearing the music for the first time. It always makes me remember the first time I listened to that song. I ALWAYS watch new reactions from you guys. Keep it up, there are many more bands from the genre that are just as hard waiting for you to discover them.
Amen. It's lovely entertainment
was just thinking this! Im jealous they get to document the first time hearing some of the best music ever written.
You're not kidding! 😁
Same here bruh , i'm 46 lol, mad love from ALGERIA 🇩🇿
Creeping Death is considered by many to be their best song ever. They play it live, the crowd chants "DIE, DIE, DIE" over and over again. It's amazing! Seen them 3 times.
The Live version in Seattle 89' its perfect
Seen them live couple of times.. DIE chants gives me goosebumps everytime 🤘
The best song live! I’ve seen them about 7 times live and listen to Metallica daily. I’ve been a fan since the mid 80s!
SLAAaaves!! HEBREWS BORN TO SERVE!
@@eltetta20 facts
This is way past upload date, but y'all have to check this one out live. James gets the entire crowd chanting "die" for a chorus. It's intense.
Massively intense! Tens of thousands of people chanting "DIE!!!" is quite moving.
Jason destroys that part
@@tylerbenally6754 tens of thousands☹
how about 1,6 millions people do same? 1991 Moscow🤘
You guys should definitely check out their performance of this in Russia in 1991. Their former bassist Jason Newsted does amazing live backing vocals for the track, there were over 1 million people in attendance, and loads of people from the Soviet Union hearing metal for the first time and losing their minds over it
they did watch that
@@vlhank can't find it, they did do Enter Sandman
ABSOLUTELY
I'm actually still hoping to exit the concert. There are still a lot of people left on the airfield.
YES 🙌🏼 I hope they do this live performance of Creeping Death in Moscow 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely love watching these young men enjoy the music I did at their age. I'm a 53 year old metal head and will be until the day I die.
My brother
I'm 53 also and love watching them discover Metallica... my favorite band.
I think they just play the role
57 here and the same
@@stan6886 nah they are definitely into it
If you want another biblically themed Metallica song, check out ‘The four horsemen’. Absolutely killer song
Second favourite Metallica song after fade to black
@@localredroberto2352 I was just going to say that! You have good taste my friend.
Bro I was about to request that it’s so damn good
They were about 18 when they wrote that one too, cool for them to see just how talented they were even at such a young age.
Epic!
I listen to this every Passover
Watching you guys enjoy all this old Metallica brings me such joy. 😂
Me too bro. They getting world wide culture. Music from all angles.
Exodus, and passover.....so brilliantly done.....
If you guys want a change of pace, try "Orion" from the Master of Puppets album. It's completely instrumental, but, damn, what a piece of art.
Yes Orion!!! Thank you for reminding me! I used to play that on the bass back in the good old days when everyone was in a band ❤❤
Totally agreed. One of my all time favourites.
Yes! Orion is amazing
Facts
Their last album “hardwired” is pretty heavy and great. They really went back to their heavier side. They still tour. They still make great music. They are just amazing.
"Spit Out the Bone" is a ton of fun, and I think "Halo on Fire" is one of the best songs they've ever written.
@@timpossible181 spit out the bone is amazing James really let his old voice come out a bit in that song which sounds heavy!
I agree and several of the riffs would fit right in on Justice 🤘
i saw this live in Seattle,and they extended this out for us....I nearly died of pure bliss.
love it - the 2 hardest songs on this album are still to come - Fight fire with fire being one of them. If that doesn’t get you pumped for the gym….
^^^FACTS!
Relentless song
fight fire with fire is the best on album imo
Shout out to Eddie Munson for turning you guys on to Metallica! You guys are real cool, I'm really enjoying hearing what you have to say. As a 52 yr old metal head, it's such a joy to see people who missed this movement understanding why we went so hard for these bands. Come to Brooklyn and we can check out some live metal shows!

Same here 52 and I stil blast Metallica in my car lol
Same here just turned 20 and within the past couple months got into bands like Pantera, Black Sabbath, Death , obituary and slayer. Even just picked up my first 4 String bass
Seeing them live with the big 4 was the greatest concert of my life. I was 10 feet from the stage
The performance of this song in Seattle '89 still stands as a favorite for me. The crowd is full on.
As good as the album tracks are, Metallica was meant to be heard LIVE! Check out the concert from Moscow in 1991. It was the country's first chance to go to a big rock concert and they had the biggest crowd in history (1.6 million).
moscow is overrated. seattle is the ultimate.
@@jamesnewcomb9834 Yeah pantera stole that show
@@Kerplaw I saw Pantera on their Cowboy's tour, (1st time in MN) in a mid-sized club. They stole the stage from the headliner that night as well.
Apparently you haven't been paying attention and watching their reactions. The first reaction they did of Metallica was their Enter Sandman from the 1991 concert about 6 months ago.
@@jamesnewcomb9834 nah Pantyra is overrated
You guys should definitely react to the live version of this in Seattle ‘89. I think it would bring a whole new level to your respect for Metallica
I was there!!!!!!! Seattle 89’ baby!!!!!! My senior year of high school
@@kikivon3501wish I could watch them live in they’re younger days
Moscow 91
Moscow version is awesome
what seperates Metallica from other bands is how clear every instrument is including the vocals, so brilliant.
Pantera
You've obviously not listened to the And Justice For All album then! 😂
@@farn451 The mixing is definitely not the best in that album
@@farn451The Newsted curse!
Lmao 'clear instruments' my guy you cant even hear the kick drum without a loud ass stereo
Thank you guys for introducing me to all different types of music! Love your reactions! If you ever need a suggestion, you guys should listen to the rock band, Stryper, and start with their the song Yahweh! It's a real banger! Thank you!
You guys and Metallica-reactions are a Heaven-made match 😉🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘…..MORE METALLICA 🔥🔥🔥
Ride the Lightening came out the year I was born. At 14, I listened to ...And Justice for All to help cope with my mother's death.

Kirk wrote this song while in Exodus. It was originally called Die by my hand
@@jeffmurphy1886 Yea and the subject matter comes from watching the movie ten commandments in the studio. I think when cliff saw the fog in the movie he said "it's like creeping death!"
Also ironic that the song is based on a stoey in Exodus when the song was written by a guy in Exodus
@@jeffmurphy1886 kirk wrote only the breakdown riff not the whole song
This song is just from the movie "The Ten Commandments". They use to play it every Easter when there were only three channels on T.V.
The cover art to their LP'S are incredible 😱. The name of this LP is Ride the Lightning. What a phenomenal second album.
You got the groove now... This song live is always amazing...20,000+ people yelling "die" in unison... SICK!
watching this song live is amazing .. the "die, die, die" bridge is epic... they drop down to just the drums and bass and let the crowd chant for a few bars before coming back in with the full band... so epic to hear 30,000 people chanting "die" to that riff
80's Metal is Untouchable!.
Yes.
The live version of this from Moscow '91 is immaculate. Trust!

LYRICS:
Slaves, Hebrews born to serve
To the Pharaoh
Heed, to his every word
Live in fear
Faith of the unknown one
The deliverer
Wait, something must be done
Four hundred years
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born Pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Now, let my people go
Land of Goshen
Go, I will be with thee
Bush of fire
Blood, running red and strong
Down the Nile
Plague, darkness three days long
Hail to fire
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born Pharaoh son
I'm creeping death
Die by my hand (die)
I creep across the land (die)
Killing first-born man (die)
Die by my hand (die)
I creep across the land (die)
Killing first born man (die)
I rule the midnight air
The destroyer
Born, I shall soon be there
Deadly mass
I creep the steps and floor
Final darkness
Blood, lambs blood painted door
I shall pass
So let it be written
So let it be done
I'm sent here by the chosen one
So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first-born Pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

Writing a song from the perspective of the Angel of Death during Passover is the most metal shit ever.
Creeping Death Live Moscow 1991. Quite possibly the best live performance I have ever seen.
You guys are great for doing these. Music can bring people together from all different cultures and walks of life. Respect gentlemen
I think this might be the best song off of this album. Fade to Black is also legendary and For Whom The Bell Tolls is a classic, but this song just SLAYS!
Best concert I ever went to was back in 89' when Metallica was part of the Monsters of Rock tour. There were 5 bands total that played that day in front of 80,000 people, and it was wild!!! The band's that played were Van Halen, Scorpion's, Dokken, Metallica, and Kingdom Come. Metallica was the heaviest and best out of the 5, but that's just my opinion. Overall a kick ass concert!!!!
We need some Van Halen!!!!
My absolute favourite Metallica album, a real game changer for Metal when it was released. Love to see you guys getting into some Metal 🤘
I've loved Metallica since I was a kid in the 80's. Tons of great music. Want to check out something crazy, they have done concerts with a symphony too. Check out the S&M album. The main song for that album was No Leaf Clover.
I love watching the sheer enjoyment you guys are getting from it. Im 52. Was 18 then. Dude in the red you can see by his facial expressions. My man in the blue is rookie headbanger slowly graduating to be a pro. You all need to grow dreads and let the hair fly. Like us white boys grew our hair and headbanged. Its a great release of energy. Especially if you had a bad day. You guys rock
I just stumbled upon your channel recently and have been having such a good time watching you guys! You guys look like a super fun crew to hang with. I’m a super music nerd. I wanted to suggest, since you’re all into Metallica, that you might explore some other 80’s bands from Metallicas genre, Thrash Metal. Some bands to check out, Exodus ( that was started by Kirk Hammett, Metallicas guitarist), Sodom, Megadeath, Slayer, Suicidal Tendencies, or Anthrax…. So many more. I’d love to watch you guys trip on some of those, hahah! Crazy, but incredibly musically talented. Keep doing your show, it’s so fun! You guys are fun!
I just watched your first Metallica reaction followed straight away by this one...this was amazing. Bunch of dudes first getting exposed, sorta feeling it, then straight into full-on fandom.
06:30 iconic riff
That breakdown is the most epic and awesome shit ever
And Kirk was only 16 when he wrote it!
One of my favorite things about youtube will ALWAYS be watching people from other walks of life, different musical tastes, openly explore and examine music that I love. Good times. I always have fun watching your guys' reactions.
If you want to hear one of the best openings to a metal album ever you should check out Fight Fire With Fire off of this same album. It has got to be one of their hardest songs they ever made.
Prior to that, I never heard a guitar riff so fast and brutal. My 13 year old mind was blown to pieces! From that day forward, they were my favorite band.
I agree about the logo design, with the chrome lettering. It does look cool AF. The first four albums by 'tallica were masterpieces.
Slayer : Angel of death
any song prior to 1990, you guys should do a review from the "live SHit Binge and Purge - Seattle" Concert - metallica live is a different beast! I Enjoy your effort to learn the meaning behind the lyrics and album.
It’s a really weird experience to be an “old” Metal head watching these boys discover songs. They could be my sons. It’s wild. Boy is the hockey shirt is mega extra 😂. I’m not sure how you grow up with so much tech and music at your fingertips and not get a little curious. Glad y’all are having fun and checking things out now. Better late than never.
Theologically speaking this song isn’t completely correct/in order of what happened in Exodus, but makes for great subject matter. Love to see what you fellas think of Symphony of Destruction and Peace Sells by Megadeth. Also recommend Vote with a Bullet by Corrosion of Conformity. Could give you 1,000
Recommendations. Be well. Do your homework. Eat your veggies. Say your prayers. Peace out.
I'm a 52 year old white man I am surprised and happy seeing you young black men enjoying the music I have loved. I am excited to see what you do with the influence of that music. Maybe you can make great rap songs again!!
Great reaction as always guys, some other great songs from bands I'm sure will hype you up also:
Bring me the horizon - 1x1
Staind- been a while
Fuel - shimmer
These guys were like 21 when this album came out in the early 80's. Kirk Hammett's previous band was Exodus.
Just found your channel it's lit you guy's should do the live version in Moscow 1991🤘
I've been watching all of your videos. The dude with the red hat is the most real dude here. He is legitimely trying to understand everything. This dude is metal. Sorry for the bad english, cheers from Brazil!
Metallica are still touring and throwing out albums in 22 and they just get better and I've seen them live 3 times over the years
And last time with my son who is 26 and I first seen Metallica when I was 17 that same year I saw megadeth at donington monsters of rock in 1988 and slayer in Glasgow iron maiden Edinburgh with killer dwarfs Celtic frost UK was full of metal thrash bands
So glad you did this one. People make assumptions when they see the title, never actually listen to what it’s really about. One of my faves from Metallica.
Pls keep the Metallica reactions coming!!!!!
i love the look of pure bliss on brandon's face and watching you guys just rocking out its awesome!
Y’all need to react to Metallica- The Four Horsemen
Seriously you guys could have your own channel on just Metallica reactions it’s crazy how many people I wanted to listen to this stuff when I was growing up but no one would ever give it a chance. Thanks for starting this channel. And by now y’all have to realize that they are the goat.
Y’all got to react to Ride The Lighting
and think, this was new in the 80s. They were on another level.
"Spit Out The Bone" next! Its a BANGER. Also I would love to see you guys react to some of Metallicas most legendary live shows! (Seattle, Mexico City etc.)
Indeed. Spit out the bone is on my all time jogging list. With A nightmare long and with ST.Anger
What the hell is that?
Anything after '91 isn't really Metallica!
@@DerEchteBold
isnt "really" Metallica... "DerEchteBold" defines what metallica really is, thanks for the enlightment.
If its not your type of tea, okay I respect that. I also highly prefer the first five albums but if you think anything after 91 isnt "really" Metallica, you have no idea what the band really is and stands for.
By the way, Spit out the Bone is more thrash and "oldschool-Metallica" than anything on the black album.
@@xKisukeX96
More Thrash?
Well, that's the problem right there!
They should've gone with their new style and develop from there or just quit, instead of trying to relive their youth ever since, failing over and over, putting out yawn after yawn, becoming a pale copy of themselves.
I tried listening to that last album with an old friend and we were bored to death halfway through.
Just listened to the song you named just to be sure and yeah...It has a few nice moments but stll pretty pointless overall, why would you want to listen to that when there's the first 5 albums?!
C'mon, seriously, you just listened to Creeping Death here, compared to that the other song is just some entirely unremarkable messing around, it's somewhat fast, that's cool, but that alone doesn't help much.
@@DerEchteBold They have the right to stay at their Thrash Metal Style. If you want Metallica to Evolve, why you dont speak about the Load und ReLoad or Garage Ära ?
Even the St.Anger Ära is very unique. Its not really Nu Metal and not really Thrash Metal, something in between just like System of a Down a Own Cup of Tea and it Rocks !
Great reaction!
My old punk band used to cover this song. Our guitar player was a super metal head and nailed the solo note for note.
People usually left for our set. They came back when we played this song.
Then left after.
We still kicked ass! And so does this song! And so do your reactions!
My favorite Metallica album 🤘🏼Love seeing grown men discover new love for Metallica so awesome
The album cover is inded an electric chair getting struck by lightning. Greatest album cover of all time. The title track is a song speaking out against the death penalty. One of the lines in the song is "Who made you god to say: I'll take your life from you."
Great reaction guys. Yes there’s a lot of the Bible in metal. Metallica lead guitarist Kirk Hammetts band before Metallica actually is named Exodus. They still tour also
*** I LOVE ** the fact you guys are sticking to Studio Versions !!!
Lets Goooo another Fire reaction! this is Metallica at their prime =)
I swear homie in red hat is my spirit animal, he's constantly feeling something a little deeper and trying to analyze the shit out of everything!
Absolutely love what you guys are doing…keep opening eyes and ears to other forms of art to help unite us all! God knows we need help from within ourselves to accomplish unity, because there are way too many forces purposely trying to divide us for their own benefit!
That smile that breaks out on "Red Hat" at 3:19...!!!!!!!!!!!! We love 'em, too, pal! You've definitely joined the tribe!
So late to this. Got introduced to Metallica thru a copied cassette tape passed around our tiny Midwest town. Masking tape bearing the name Metallica in handwritten pen. Fantastic memory the first time you hear them. So glad you found them.
This is THE Metallica song to me and many others. Just the essence of this band distilled into its concentrate and lit ablaze.
Love y'all's videos. I'm a huge Metallica fan, so seeing someone experience them for the first time is awesome!!! And the energy y'all have is perfect!!
I can’t even tell you how many times I’ve watched this video already. Love “we should play this at kick off”
Just found you guys. First metallica video one of you guys said you could see the people there headbanging, now here you all are, headbanging along. Love it
Remember this song when I was a teenager growing up in rural Indiana. Went swimming with a bunch of friends on a hot summer night. This song was blasting on the radio and the guys(they had super long hair) were head banging in the car singin “Dry, Dry my hair!” Instead of die. Good times!
Hey guys chers from Sweden. I love your reactions it brings me back to the 90'
s when i first discovered Metallica. Even though you dont always understand the music i appreciate u branching out from compton :D
My favorite album. So many good songs. Me my cuz and our buddy would cruise around town listening to this album and smoking weed
