Sometimes I still struggle to realize this is only their 2nd studio album. This song sounds like they've been playing together for decades, so powerful! Too bad the mixing was so thin back in the day, it really needs more punchy bass and thickness to do the music "Justice" (see what I did there?). R.I.P. Cliff, some of us still miss you.
I know right, the jump of quality is just so big, Kirk's solos are less of a jumble of notes, James' singing and playing matured, Lars changed up with the drum patterns more, and Cliff made fire basslines And that ICY guitar tone, echoey drums, sweet overdriven bass, absolutely beautiful album
That raw raunchy garage sound is what made their first four albums sound so good! After Justice everything sounds to clean clear and crisp, Distortion is what is what makes metal heavy. I to miss Cliff everyday he's the reason I play bass
That riff and so many variations of it were hijacked and brought into the 90s hard-core and thrash scenes over and over and over again. Such a brutal riff, couldn't have picked a better one🤘

I love that Metallica made a story about what happened in the bible and I'm religous so my favorite band which is Metallica made a song of a story in the holy bible just makes me so happy.
They don't like Christianity. James mom was a crazy Christian who would not go to the doctors for her cancer, she thought God would save her. But he didn't. Shows how much you know about the band.
Metal is Satanic if only in comparison of relative philosophy it just isn't necessarily theistically Satanic but a lot of it is even then. Metal primarily idolizes and worships strength both mental and physical as does Satanism. Instead of arguing that metal isn't Satanic you'd do much better to make sure the persons claiming it's somehow a negative thing knows what Satanism actually is.
The song is about the book of exodus. The liberation of hebrew slaves after 466 years of slavery. .the plaques on egypt. Moses and the freeing of hebrew slaves from egypt
The story of Exodus is the story of a people who wanted to be free. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all humans are created equal, and are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Happiness." Thomas Jefferson

I went into the largest of the Pharaohs pyramids , Khufu's pyramid when I was stationed overseas in the military 1989 med cruise. This is what I listened over and over on repeat.

Never thought I'd see the same thing come to pass thank you sir it's been a blessing I👍👍👍😁😁😁
One of my favorite Metallica songs! I've always wondered why they let Pharaoh live at the end... the Bible clearly states he died along with his men... I watch the Walt Disney animated movie about this same instance and they let Pharaoh live also...

Not saying you're wrong but I never heard that Kirk wrote all of these riffs just one. He wrote the "die by my hand" riff when he was in Exodus which I think they were planning to use in a song called "Impaler" if memory serves but don't quote me on it. Exodus actually didn't manage to release "Impaler" until 2003 on Tempo Of The Damned.
Speaking of Cliff I read somewhere that they guys were watching the ten commandments movie and when it got to the part where the green mist is moving through Egypt he said wow that looks like creeping death and that was where the inspiration for this song came from, pretty cool.

It is and it isn't. The song was written based on The Ten Commandments which is a movie based on the biblical story of Moses starring Charelton Heston. So it is based on a bible story in the second degree but you still run into whatever issues come from the interpretation from story to film. I'm not enough of an expert in either to be able to point them out. Even then the Moses story is technically from the Torah so it's a Jewish story before it's a bible story but the specific basis here is the biblical account. If you're looking for Metallicas commentary on religion as a whole they didn't comment on it as often as other thrash bands but when they did it was always negative. James history with it isn't pleasant. He came from a Christian science family and watched his mother die slowly of cancer refusing treatment because of their religion. Christian scientists essentially believe all healing should be Godly intervention.

The video doesn’t actually show the Creeping Death. In the 10 Commandments film of the fifties it was shown as green smoke coming down from the night sky and travelling through the streets killing all the first born Egyptians. Watching this was what inspired James to write the song.
Rite! So the first born were privileged and got a bed on the floor.... Likely alot lower than today's.,.. everyone else would sleep on the roof cause it's cooler... The creeping death would likely bin some sort a gas, or worse.... \m/

Exodus 2:23-25 Now after a long time the king of Egypt died. And the children of Israel groaning, cried out because of the works: and their cry went up unto God from the works.

Sometimes I still struggle to realize this is only their 2nd studio album. This song sounds like they've been playing together for decades, so powerful! Too bad the mixing was so thin back in the day, it really needs more punchy bass and thickness to do the music "Justice" (see what I did there?). R.I.P. Cliff, some of us still miss you.
I prefer listening to live versions of Creeping Death for the same reasons, plus James singing better now than in 84
I know right, the jump of quality is just so big, Kirk's solos are less of a jumble of notes, James' singing and playing matured, Lars changed up with the drum patterns more, and Cliff made fire basslines
And that ICY guitar tone, echoey drums, sweet overdriven bass, absolutely beautiful album
@@steveunderwood7823 my opinion is his voice was better then, a little more raw. But yea bass would be better live.
That raw raunchy garage sound is what made their first four albums sound so good! After Justice everything sounds to clean clear and crisp, Distortion is what is what makes metal heavy. I to miss Cliff everyday he's the reason I play bass
Man fuck that. I love that raw unpolished sound. That’s what makes it metal 😈🤘🏽
I have listened to this song literally thousands of times and it NEVER gets old. 3.40, that riff still gives me goose bumps.
Me too. The transition to slow and headbanging heavy is phenomenal. The first time I heard this I was blown away bc I never saw it coming lmao

Verse 1]
Slaves, Hebrews born to serve

So let it be written
So let it be done
To kill the first born Pharaoh son
I'm creeping death

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

(Die) Killing first born man
Die, by my hand
(Die) I creep across the land
(Die) Killing first born man
[Verse 3]
I rule the midnight air
The destroyer
Born, I shall soon be there
Deadly mass
I creep the steps and floor
Final darkness
Blood, lamb's blood painted door
I shall pass

seems spot on !
First Metallica video was "One" which was on Justice and that came way after Ride...
I can’t believe the impetus for this song was written when Metallica’s Kirk Hammet was only sixteen years old
At that time he was in a band called exodus
And coincidence is the chapter of Bible in which this story tooks place is also titled exodus
I love this video the song is one of my favorites. James rythm and Kirk's lead are perfect together .🤘🤘🤘

The story of Passover told by Metallica!
True enough
Metallica's way is the best way
as a christian who listens to metalica those lyrics hit pretty close to home
That was so great! Perfectly stated...
Praise be Jesus Christ for this one !
The "Ten Commandments" are more glory. This is still a good movie.
Not only was this a great movie. This is absolutely perfect to this song
I got this album on my 15th birthday in 1985. I was blown away! So revolutionary, just when the matrix came out. There was nothing like it.

the tune of this epic thrash music is so proportional to the era it's talking about.
Definitely one of their best songs
Awesome montage for a killer tune...great work. ;-)
Hell yeah 😎👌👌😎💪😎😎
Hi lloyd....little slow tonight...
The video doesn’t actually show the Creeping Death. In the 10 Commandments film of the fifties it was shown as green smoke coming down from the night sky and travelling through the streets killing all the first born Egyptians. Watching this was what inspired James to write the song.
Rite! So the first born were privileged and got a bed on the floor.... Likely alot lower than today's.,.. everyone else would sleep on the roof cause it's cooler... The creeping death would likely bin some sort a gas, or worse.... \m/

Thank you for absolutely blowing my mind, that was like singing along with the bible, all praise goes to our heavenly Father.
I always knew Metallica were special but this video was the greatest video ever made for a Metal tune eh where is Wham now eh hahah
Jesus saves! God please protect Israel from the wicked ones, Amen.
I’m a hog hunter. Every time I have a successful hunt, I crank this song.
Metallica really went all out making this video. Time travel ain't cheap.
Exodus 2:23-25
Now after a long time the king of Egypt died. And the children of Israel groaning, cried out because of the works: and their cry went up unto God from the works.
And he heard their groaning: and remembered the covenant which he made with Abraham, Issac and Jacob.
And the Lord looked upon the children of Israel: and he knew them.
My first thought when I saw the word exodus was of the band Exodus
@@jozzyalthefool9273when kirk wrote that die die by my hand riff he was only sixteen and was in a band exodus
And the chapter in which this story took place is also titled exodus in Bible
Best Passover video ever

Great song & video
Great story of history written in Holy books, musically by Goddamn Metallica. Epic!!!
WATCH YOUR MOUTH. You will stand before God one day
Metallica has a lot of history they teach !
I’ve always known what this song was about but this video really drives it home. Well done man.
In real Moisa wasn't warier. He was a peaceful person
@@ЛарисаПанова-е9е Moshe was never a warrior, he was the messenger of God and a hero to the enslaved Jews in Egypt.
Always been my favorite Metallica song
Alot of metal songs are stories straight from the bible. Revaluations is some scary shit.
Yeah alot , especially the nephelim and revelation
What's that supposed to mean?
Correction = Revelations. Sorry.
