Just based off of the title alone I completely agree. It's possible that Kill 'Em All is my favourite Metallica album but I don't count it as their metal debut.
It definitely has a different vibe from the rest and I can respect that it was there first album! Also thank you for the IRs, man they are killer and worked perfectly for this.
@@djacobmadrigal While I do agree with you, it doesn't feel the same as their other albums. It's very 70s rock inspired in the riffs which doesn't really pop up anywhere else.
Ride the Lightning was the big jump from their early, raw sound that wore their influences on their sleeve to the more groundbreaking sound they'd develop on Master of Puppets and Justice! Still is, and probably always will be, my favorite album by them by far!
@@BrianWGuitar right? When listened back to all their albums, I noticed they are at their best when the albums are shorter/have more energy and leave you wanting more! Ride The Lightning= my favorite Metallica song by far! 🤘
13:59 Bro does NOT know about Hangar 18. The intro of Hangar 18 is the actual the debut of the riff in Megadeth. The chords are the same, but they are strummed with distortion instead of single notes with a clean tone.
Dave uses those little chromatic up and back down riffs all over the place if you listen for it. Sometimes it's like a 1-2-3-4 1-2-3-4 style riff and sometimes a 1-2-3-2 1-2-3-2. Ktulu uses them both.
There is a lot points I could have mentioned. That was the first off the top of my mind. But i did mention that fact and more on my For Whom the Bell Tolls video that I made a few months back.
Yeah Cliff really put the ass into the band's sound on this album. The Cliff em All video release (mostly poor sound quality) when he's doing the background vocals on the Creeping Death chorus: Die!(by my hand)Die! Die!Die! They've had numerous replacements (love Justice, but the bass completely mirrors the rhythm guitar parts, maybe Newstead was just doing what he was told) but it doesn't live up to the original Major Rager. Heard Ride the Lightning actually before Kill em All, and I agree, it's more theirs, as Mustaine wrote a lot of Kill em All (hence the beef in the old days "Don't use my shit" and of course they did) Regardless, I was a big fan then and still am now, soundtrack to my arrested adolescence!
My favorite tidbit about creeping death is that the climax riff is from Kirk when he was in exodus so James wrote a song about the story of Exodus. Never confirmed if it was done on purpose to honor Kirk’s time in Exodus but still a cool homage
Escape was the 1st song I heard from Metallica, I was 9y/o. To this day I have seen Metallica about 8x, and I got lucky at Orion fest to actually hear it live 1 time. It would be a welcome song live tossed in here and there, When my friend and I are in the car, it's one of those song we both just Belt out together.. Miss those teen years.
Definitely the articulate start. Well, more so. Also the COK chords are used in Hanger 18 intro. Very similar progression at least. Thanks for the cool video.
i'm not here to rant but it actually is hangar 18 the chord progression was made by dave mustaine when he was in metallica and they used it in COK that's why dave is credited for it
Lots of cool info. In my opinion Kill Em All, Ride The Lightning, & Master of Puppets are all essential metal albums. Not one bad song in any of those 3 albums. I disagree that Kill Em All is anything less than a metal benchmark and critical debut setting a new precedent for metal going forward. Some of the tracks are on my list of top quintessential Metallica tracks. If I was making a mix tape of essential Metallica songs for a friend who never heard them Seek and Destroy, Four Horsemen, Whiplash, Pulling Teeth would be on it. As well as RTLs For Whom the Bell Tolls, Fade to Black, Ktulu, Creeping Death and some others and on MOP Master, Sanitarium, Orion, Thing That Should Not Be. IMHO
Wow. This is a thought I've never encountered. But very true. RTL MUST be considered "Metallica's" d-e-b-u-t album. After all this is THE classic lineup. Great work. I see the sub count rising. Thanks for all you do. Great content. Great tone. Great Playing. YOU just might save RUclips after all.
You are too kind! Thank you for the kind words and your support. 🤘. I definitely don’t hate Kill Em All but I think it didn’t have enough of what makes Metallica a legendary band, at least to me!
Surprised you didn't talk about Cliff's bass on For Whom The Bell Tolls. No mention of the tone or the bass tracks. Fun fact: the reason why the bass on the album mix sounds different than when its played live (even by Cliff) is because its (at least) double tracked with one of them involving tapped harmonics. Cliff might've doubled the normal lead bass line and made it three bass tracks, but I'm not sure. And there is the elusive fourth bass track which is Cliff playing along with the guitars.
I talked a bit about Cliffs bass on my For Whom the Bell Tolls video but Im trying to focus my videos more on just guitar and history. But I also did not know that about the bass tracking.
Excellent video, Brian! I can tell you put alot of work and effort into this one. The jump from KEA to RTL sonically and musically was a massive jump. I'm not sure if any band has had a change that drastic from debut to 2nd album. Although, KEA did have some moments of things to come. The mid break and solo from The Four Horsemen, and the clean break in Phantom Lord, showed that Metallica could slow down and write some catchy clean style riffs, right along with the heavy and fast. Metallica never fell into the trap of "Fast equals Good" like all their contemporaries, which gets stale after awhile. Metallica were never afraid to push the boundaries of what they were capable of, and that's a big part of why they are the biggest Metal Band ever today
Thats exactly how i feel too, well said! And thank you 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻. There are definitely moments on KEA that are amazing. But they truly did make a big leap forward and that helped a lot.
@@BrianWGuitar You're welcome! I love the energy and Riffs of KEA, it's one of my favorites, but RTL is ahead of it for sure. They Matured alot as song writers for sure. Cliff was a huge influence on the rest of the guys too
@@DeweyJHall1 Yea Ive realized just how much Cliffs classical influence really helped them as song writers. Definitely trying to use some of that wisdom myself.
I'm a huge metallica fan. I'm 31 so I've wasn't around back then. But I think kill em all kids sucked. Ride the lightning was miles ahead of kill em all. Master and justice were top notch metallica!
I was thinking this just the other day too! Kill ‘em All still has that demo feeling to it. Ride the Lightning is epic, my best Metallica offering by far 🤘🏻
Cliff Burton wrote the beginning to "for whom the bell tolls" in high school. You can check it out by searching his high school band "agents of misfortune" forward to 9:30 of the video.
Good video. I politely disagree with RTL as their debut. I like it better than kill in a lot of ways though. IMO, take vocals out of kill and that raw and violent energy is amazing! Thanks, and subscribing.
@@jeanjeanjean2541 yep, he was a classically trained pianist as a kid before switching to bass. He wrote the melodic guitar part on the second half of orion
"Escape" doesn't deal with death. Great video, I agree that there does seem to be a missing evolutionary album between KEA and Ride, but no, "Escape" is the death theme breaker of Ride.
I'm kinda shocked that Hetfield didn't like Escape as much, I love that track partly because it's the only song that isn't about death..a little golden nugget of hope in the murky darkness of that album.
@@homegrownhomie4179 Same here. I didn't know anyone shared my love for that specific utility for "Escape" as a pallet cleanser of darkness which occurs at the perfect time in the sequencing for the contrast to illuminate the whole. 👍 Almost like the title is the hint.
I respect your opinion for sure. It is definitely not an album that I enjoy entirely but I think it has some bright spots. I do appreciate that Metallica has so many good albums that you could argue for whatever album you wanted as the best of all time.
It sounds dated, more rock'n'roll and blues scaled than metal. When I first heard it I thought it sounded like AC/DC on steroids. RTL is much more complex, grim and epic sounding.
I really like your Metallica videos and the Ride The Lightning album. But I cannot agree with your opinion that the Kill 'em All album "Has not held up very well." A debut album is supposed to be very raw because the band was new at writing and had a low budget to produce the album. Also if you consider comparing Kill 'em All to something like those first few albums by Pantera before Phil joined. I think Kill 'em All came out amazing and has held up very well.
Thank you for watching! I totally get it being raw since its their first release but it just doesnt do it for me. Which is okay. But i respect your opinion!
"Escape" may not be the best song off of Ride The Lightning. In fact, it might be the worst. But the worst song from Ride The Lightning is still a great song! In fact, it's better, in my opinion, than most of their 90s output.
@kuplung22 I like Metallica. But Dave's influence is bit understated. I thought this video would at least mention it. Master of puppets is the real first Metallica album. And it's on par with anything Dave ever did.
Young James looked like a bully in a Stephen King novel... who is eventually eaten by a giant plant... Old James looks like a manager in a bus garage😂😂😂
For me ⚡️Lightning⚡️ is the best Metallica album Puppets a close second, Puppets has way better production but Lightning has mostly better songs and a unique atmosphere to it 🔔 🧊 🔫 ⚡️⛈️
Cool Video. I absolutely love Ride the Lightning but Kill em All is a Monster. A lot of these songs off it are staples at Every Show. Its the first metallica Tape I ever owned (One of my Brothers Friends Left it over our house this was 1990 i was 12) . I understand people when they Cowboys from Hell is Pantera's Real Debut as their drastic change put them into a whole New Category. Ride the Lightning However was major Progression in the Genre as a whole rather than a Drastic Change. Really cool video but I Respectfully disagree.
Thanks for this cool video! I think you might have something to gain from knocking down the pace of your speech a notch though! You are losing us foreign eurot(h)rash!!
@@BrianWGuitar Interesting? he is lying, Mustaine wrote 4 songs on Kill'em All and they used some riffs on "Ride" and "Ktulu", Megadeth fanboys are really weird.
@@cr1min4l It’s because Megadeth fan boys hate the fact Metallica is more successful. Think about it, if Metallica hadn’t been successful you wouldn’t get any Megadeth fans trying to claim Dave wrote everything. It would be quite the opposite. They’d say ‘Nah Dave had nothing to do with that shit’ But because they are huge and successful it’s… ‘Yeah Dave wrote em all, he’s the reason Metallica are where they are’ etc etc
@Tempashot this. It's super cringe. 67% my ass maybe 5% if that lol. He prob was only responsible for maybe 25% of kill em all and that's being generous. I love Dave and megadeth but his fanboys are delusional. Both bands are awesome idk why they have to hate on Metallica and hump megadeth lol. Why cant one just appreciate both? It's not that difficult
Kill Em All, to me, is their second weakest album, only Hardwired is weaker. Ride was such a HUGE step forward. Everything I love about Metallica starts here
Kill ‘Em All is my least favorite album of theirs that most people love. I really, really hate the album. Had they not diverted and stayed true to that sound and style, they’d never have been big. Ride The Lightning really was their famous sound’s catalyst, and MoP/AJFA is them mastering that style. To their credit, the Black Album was a stark departure but also nailed it (obviously). I personally love the first half of Load, and a track or two from Reload. But I cannot stand anything after that. After several listens, I cannot find a single track I would objectively enjoy was it not Metallica and I heard it with no context, outside of single riffs or moments.
Hey thank you for your comment. I don’t necessarily hate KEA but it is weaker to me for sure. I do also love Death Magnetic and bits and pieces of the last three albums but I totally respect that you recognize it’s not for you. I wish more people realized that just because they don’t like something it doesn’t mean it’s bad, just not something for them.
@@JSXSProductions Im more partial to Moth into Flame but that song kicks ass as well. I listen to the majority of the Metallica catalog as they are my favorite band.
@@JSXSProductionsall nightmare long is killer too there's alot of good stuff on the last 3 records. I think people just can't get past st anger they think Metallica is still like that and don't give the albums after that a fair shake. To be fair st anger has its moments too but it's easily their weakest album for me (no lulu isn't a Metallica album and I don't care about lulu lol)
They didn't treat him bad he was a violent out of control drunk who threatened to derail the band before they even got off the ground. All 3 other members unanimously wanted him out so that tells you everything. Dave has had 22 members besides himself in his band since 1985 and Metallica had only had 2 previous members that aren't in the band anymore since 83 one died and one was with them 15 years before leaving. This tells you everything as far as who the difficult one is. I love both bands but stop this nonsense that Dave was treated poorly by Metallica.

@@BrianWGuitar I’m not sure but I think Kirk wrote that
When I was 1 year into listening to Metallica, I didn't even know there were other albums than RTL, MOP, AJFA, and Black Album 💀

I don't get the disdain for "Escape"...That song rocks. Whole album is classic.

RTL reminds me of Exciter- Heavy Metal Maniac from 1983. Metallica toured with Exciter in Canada and copied a few of their songs, the slower songs.

To their credit, the Black Album was a stark departure but also nailed it (obviously).
I personally love the first half of Load, and a track or two from Reload. But I cannot stand anything after that. After several listens, I cannot find a single track I would objectively enjoy was it not Metallica and I heard it with no context, outside of single riffs or moments.
Hey thank you for your comment. I don’t necessarily hate KEA but it is weaker to me for sure. I do also love Death Magnetic and bits and pieces of the last three albums but I totally respect that you recognize it’s not for you. I wish more people realized that just because they don’t like something it doesn’t mean it’s bad, just not something for them.
Give Spit Out the Bone a listen. I think that's their best since the 80s.
@@JSXSProductions Im more partial to Moth into Flame but that song kicks ass as well. I listen to the majority of the Metallica catalog as they are my favorite band.
@@JSXSProductionsall nightmare long is killer too there's alot of good stuff on the last 3 records. I think people just can't get past st anger they think Metallica is still like that and don't give the albums after that a fair shake. To be fair st anger has its moments too but it's easily their weakest album for me (no lulu isn't a Metallica album and I don't care about lulu lol)

They didn't treat him bad he was a violent out of control drunk who threatened to derail the band before they even got off the ground. All 3 other members unanimously wanted him out so that tells you everything. Dave has had 22 members besides himself in his band since 1985 and Metallica had only had 2 previous members that aren't in the band anymore since 83 one died and one was with them 15 years before leaving. This tells you everything as far as who the difficult one is. I love both bands but stop this nonsense that Dave was treated poorly by Metallica.
