Aw, man. It's so annoying when labels block videos! I know they gotta do what they gotta do, but still. Thanks for editing it more and still uploading it! 👍
James Hetfield is one of the greatest rock/metal frontmen of all time, my opinion. His playing is always consistent, he writes many of the songs. Oh yup you just said it, haha yes since he's found healing and gone through rehab, he's found a new stride of energy and passion for life, & it shows in his playing and songwriting
@@kylestyyle987 Understandable. It sad that age destroys what people are capable of. It's like when I watch recent Van Halen performances. EVH is still an incredible guitar player but he's not 20 year old EVH. I guess I have to put James Hetfield in that category.
I think it is time for these Metallica fanboys to see them live. Las Vegas T-Mobile Arena, Monday 26th November. It would be awsome to here a reaction of concert. Like comment if you to would love that.
Definitely would have to start a go fund me... of course it also depends on if there are any tickets left. With all the tickets set aside for radio stations and promotions, there are very few tickets left open to for the general public to purchase. This will be the first time in over 2 decades I won't be able to see them due to the cost of their tickets and the fact the concert was almost sold out BEFORE tickets went on sale. It's unreal.
First. I can't wait to watch this. Spit Out The Bone was a return to 80's Metallica and has been apluaded by almost everyone. Much love from Australia. Also...Down in a Hole by Alice in Chains :P
not how it works man, they were great in the 80-'s early 90's, lost it on st. anger, tried to recorrect with magnetic and now this, it just sounds like metallica trying to be metallica, but not something their actually making as metallica……. a metallica cover band would probably make a better album, this one just fell flat overall for me, I liked about 3 songs this being one of them and even then its not up to par with what id like them being. idk the 80's were a fluke, I think cliff burton was the secret song writing mojo they've been missing since then
@nesneros people all have different opinions and reasons for liking or disliking stuff. nothing wrong with that imo. the "rawness" of the early albums was great, they had a good sound for each album. I just didn't like how st.anger sounded at all.
@@JB-ju4ev WTF❓.... Did this #fuktard literally just say that a Metallica cover band would make a better album than Metallica themselves❓ 😒..... FOH❗❕SMH
Garth did a damn amazing job on that poster tho thats really top quality. The song was so metal and raw and I enjoyed every second of it everyone brought their A-game and continued to astound your expectation as the song went on. The switch-ups, the riffs, the vocals and even the video was on point in creating a work of art. S shoutout to Metallica and Amazing reaction Lost In Vegas.
Its crazy to say how crisp and tight and with the ability to still play fast thrash metal. James was 53 years old when he and Lars wrote the hardwired album. Metal legends.
I like it a lot and they out did there selves but master of puppets i still listen to. I dont know if ill listen to this in 15 years. Is the song timeless because to me thats what makes it great.
Metallica Orion my all time favorite song. It's what got me into bass in the first place. It's an instrumental and it puts me in a relaxed mood. R.i.p. Cliff
And btw. I speak for everyone who watches. You inspire all of us to be free thinkers. I work at a school for behavioral kids and i have really brought that into my work and its really helped and its a great moral to instill on people.
I agree! Watching this, I kept wishing that I was only just discovering Metallica for the first time. But, it also makes me wonder...what have I been missing out on?
Garth is awesome! That poster is sick. You guys have opened conversation in my work place between people who would never share taste in genres. We need more free-thinkers!! Keep it going!!!
Agreed Vikki- let us create more free thinking around us! I'm always telling my co-workers about different old school music, and now I reference George and Ryan in my encouragement- "Check out something different!" :)
No doubt. Metallica always has been and always will be the greatest of all time. And personally they’re not even my top 2 😭😭😭😭 I have 2 other bands I like more but I will always respect Metallica as the greatest artists to ever walk the earth!
Absolutely Aaron!!! Even if a lot of people do not get into Metallica, there are some iconic songs, like Orion, Fade to Black, Four Horsemen etc... that you can NOT dispute are all time classics and deserve props for the extreme talent on them truly iconic songs. Free thinking my man!
Totally agree Jimmy (To Lost In Vegas) As someone who recommended this song i'm happy you guys liked it as much as I do! This is a favorite for most fans regardless of what some of the more stubborn fans may say. James (of Metallica) notes that Lars intended this song to be somewhat of a journey with many twists and turns along the way, so seeing you react to that was pretty cool. It's clear that Metallica knows how to write great songs and hearing it from a couple of guys who aren't metal heads does the community a great deal of good, so thanks mayn! FYI - If you want intense, check out BATTERY. Peace!
I think I understand something now about Lars, and it may explain why George likes him so much. Frankly I'm in George's camp; I love Lars, always have. I've been listening to Metallica since 1984, 5 years old, my older brother was blasting their first 3 albums on repeat in his bedroom and I fell in love. There are better drummers than Lars, technically speaking. There are certainly faster drummers than Lars too. But few drummers play as HARD as Lars. There's an emotion and an aggression behind every drumbeat, and even though he's drumming at half the speed of some other metal drummers, he's putting just as much of himself... maybe more... behind each swing of the drumstick.
People hate Lars because of the way he plays live, he skips entire parts of songs, has very inconsistent fills and double bass and he always fucks up the tempo, even when it starts well it degrades so hard over time that on all songs past the 70% mark he's Always massively off and he also comes off as a massive douchebag. I Don't remember who said it but in Metallica James assumes the duty of keeping the band in tempo through his rhythm playing because of how bad Lars is.
I can agree with that. Although Lars isn't my favorite drummer or technically up with the drumming greats, he's effective. He gets it done. You can't fake the emotion you felt when you heard master of puppets for the first time. Lars has been there for all of it. He may not be the greatest drummer of all time but certainly one of the great musicians. I have nothing but respect for him.
People criticize Lars' drumming for being "simple". And I can see their point. It kinda is. I just don't think that makes him a bad drummer in any way. You know what else is "simple" compared to it's competitors? The AK-47. Compared to many more sophisticated rifles, it's a dinosaur. It's also super-reliable and extremely effective, nonetheless. Lars is the AK-47 of metal drummers.
@@DavidDavidsonful "Comes off as a massive douche?" Have you EVER talked with him?! I think you're mistaking his confidence as arrogance. He's literally one of the coolest nicest dudes you'd ever want to meet. And there aren't a whole hell of a lot those types in the rock star business.
Oh boy this gon be good!! Metallica is just one of those bands you have to appreciate regardless of what music you’re into. Saw them live twice already, most recently in London in October, which was btw the live premiere of Spit out the Bone. Incredible band. Edit: I think it’s time to react to an entire Metallica album
MegaCrasherMusic It was insane. They left the stage and came back with the drum intro. It didn’t feel real, couldn’t believe they finally play it lol. Was worth the wait though
Lost in Vegas, much Love for ya'll from Texas! Love your channel, keep at it, you have way more music to review and react to, the list is damn near endless.
Do Dyers Eve off of Justice album, there you have one for the books. That tight transition from the solo and into one of the heaviest and best riffs they've ever done
HELL RIFF I'm in hell without youuuu Cannot cope without you two ? Shocked at the world that I seeeee Innocent victim so please rescue meeeeee 😈 🎤🎸🎸🎸💪❤♥😍😍😍😍😍🎵🎶🎼 Riff !
They most likely wont react to anymore Pantera, after seeing Phils "white power" rant. Goes against there free thinking message. They asked the fans on twitter for opinions and most thought they shouldn't...
This song is FIRE. It's crazy that these guys are in their 50's yet still creating music that's better than most of the stuff that's coming out today. One another note, would it be possible to do heavily edited reactions to Led Zeppelin songs? Would that get it past the copyright problems? You guys would like "In My Time of Dying".
That really sucks bad. I don't understand why bands, especially older bands, are so tight lipped on this stuff. They're getting free publicity out of all of this.
I couldn’t agree more with what Garth said in his letter. The posts that say they hate Enter Sandman are not free thinkers. When a band is around as long as Metallica, they need to experiment.
I think it's time. Time for maybe the #1 progressive rock song. "Roundabout" by Yes. Amazing bass-line and songwriting. Technical, melodic, emotional, and commercial all in one. Great starting point to get into Prog rock. Free-thinkers!
Alex Thorn their latest album hardwired to self destruct and the album before it death magnetic are definitely return to form metallica albums, highly reccomended
I found you guys today when I got home from work annnnnd I'm hooked!!! Mad props to you guys! It's so refreshing to see someone pushing for everyone to be open minded 😍 I've listened to Metallica since i was a kid and seen them live many times and seeing you guys enjoy them and your comments have made me rethink their songs meanings. Excellent!!! Keep killing it guys!!!
Don’t let the metal elitists try to bring you down to their hipster level - enjoy what you want to enjoy! Been a Metallica fan since the early 90s when I was a kid (...And Justice for All was the first album I ever purchased), and this is one of my favorite songs from them. Instant classic. Glad you guys enjoyed it as well!
First 'Tallica album was Ride The Lightning. Aside from LuLu, there is not a single album of theirs I "hate", though it took me a long time to warm up to St. Anger. Even Load/ReLoad are fantastic. Truly one of the bands that made up my formative years. Goddamn I loved growing up during those days when this music was new.
+Don King (Witchdoctor1) I wouldn't consider Lulu as one of their albums. It was a collab that they did with lou reed and seemed more like a side project rather than a Metallica album. If anything it was a Lou Reed album ft. Metallica haha
3 years later and I’m commenting. Honest to God, this song is AMAZING and is still one of my all time favorite Metallica songs. People need to realize they’re never going to sound like Master of Puppets again, why would they? Humans evolve and with that, so does music. This song, and most of this album, is a masterpiece of Metallica evolution. They’ll forever be my favorite band.
I'm going to lobby for Overkill until they listen to it. The Ace of Spades is the obvious choice, but Overkill has cooler ideas, musically. It's not my favourite song ever, but it sounds like it has influenced a lot of metal musicians. That's why.
people love to hate metallica, its a trend. people who say metallica sucks really just want you to ask them what their favorite band is, they will have an answer for that. listening to metallica got me into playing guitar when i was a teenager and ill always remember that.
I think it's cool to hear from someone who understands music but who isn't a metalhead complimenting Lars. He doesn't have the insane standards of drumming that metalheads do and I don't think he cares if a drummer goes on a crazy tangent. He understands that the drumming works perfectly within the context of the song. That's what is great about Lars. He isn't flashy but he's as fundamentally sound as they come.
Yeah but he hasn’t seen Lars butcher the song live. He no doubt has talent when it comes to writing, but when he plays it live he waters down fills and skips double bass parts and makes countless mistakes. A good writer yes but a shitty player
YoooooGarth here (I messaged you on facebook and the posters came from Florida if y'all need proof). Man I didn't think you guys were gonna give me a shout out like that! I'm super happy you guys liked that poster so much. Keep doing what you're doing cos RUclips needs more POSITIVE FREE THINKERS like you guys. Much love! PS: Here's the logo and wireframe if you guys wanna check it out in a little more detail i.imgur.com/qmCiiUK.jpg
I am just now finding this channel, and I have jumped all over the place with your reactions to Metallica songs. I started with y'all doing Megadeth Holy Wars, then went to straight Metallica reactions. Metallica and Megadeth both are in my top 5 band of all time. I have been listening and enjoy them both for decades. Y'all's reactions to them.....has refreshed my love for them. Not that it ever went away, but you know, when you listen to something for decades you forget how much you enjoyed it when you first heard of these songs....these bands. And man....the way y'all lay it out and react. I love it! ABSOLUTELY has sparked a flame in how much I love these bands. This is my favorite reaction so far. Because Goerge just gives up. I love it! Speechless. Nothing more to say. The Metallica songs I have heard y'all review so far are Master of Puppets, One, Orion, Blackened, Fade To Black, and the one I watched before this was St. Anger. So needless to say this was hilarious when y'all said Metallica can do no wrong and that you wanted to find a Metallica song y'all didn't like. Lol. Spit out the Bone even come out AFTER the St. Anger Album lol. But I still can appreciate St. Anger, but I will say it wasn't their best work though. But I will forever be a hardcore Metallica fan. So THANK YOU! Thank you both! For allowing me to see it through fresh eyes/ears again! I love your channel. I can't wait to listen to more in the coming future!
I would like to see you guys react to Metallica's The Day That Never Comes. it hits home to me as a combat vet. It's on their Death Magnetic album. It's done sort of in the same style as One.
Kelley Rawlings I'd like to see them react to that and The Judas Kiss! That album is so underrated and mostly because people want to complain about the compression issues from sound engineers. The music is still amazing!
If Atlas Rise had been faster, it would have been a great epic song. Play it at 1.25 speed and it is perfect! Moth Into the Flame, Hardwired to Self Destruct, Atlas Rise and 'Spit Out the Bone' are some of the best Metallica songs since 'And Justice for All'
NINE INCH NAILS ~ You guys are always talking about how you're looking for more "fusion"; nine inch nails is a mix of rave/electronica/house with R&B and is largely bass and beat oriented with the heaviness of one of the FOUNDERS of industrial music. Start with the album 'Pretty hate Machine' for a more dance-oriented feel and it just gets darker 'Broken'/'Fixed' until a more perfect mix in 'Downward Spiral', but there are MANY top songs I KNOW you guys would like. For a 'request' to start you off with; 'Closer'.
I love that you guys love Metallica so much. They're easily the premier metal band on the planet for a reason, though a lot of people bash them for being 'too popular'.
I would argue, as I have since 1998, that you could make one REALLY amazing album from the material on Load/Reload.... King Nothing, Fuel, Ain't My Bitch, Hero Of The Day, Bleeding Me, Fixxxer, Attitude, Outlaw Torn, The House That Jack Built, Until It Sleeps, 2x4, Wasting My Hate, Better Than You, Prince Charming. ....but no, there is no defending St Anger.
Brandon, agreed. There are only 3 'decent' songs on St Anger. I would say that Some Kind Of Monster, The Unnamed Feeling, and Frantic are all decent songs....not great....but decent. That being said, I think after 2002 or 2003, I have only listened to St Anger a handful of times. Like once every 2 or 3 years just to see if it has aged any better.... But the production quality is non-existent. It sounds like they recorded it in a bathroom. Lars sounds like he is playing on trash can lids instead of drums. The bass tone is gone completely. There are no solos....and James' vocals are terrible and the lyrical quality is also garbage. it's just ass. Total ass.
You guys really need to listen to some Faith No More. These guys were huge influences to so many of the bands that spawned at the end of the 90's and early 2000's. Epic is probably their most well known song but to me, The Real Thing is one of their best songs. It's a deep album cut that highlights their musicianship, vocals and some deep lyrics that I've been trying to decipher since the 1989.
Yeah, those would be the more accessible songs from that album. I think we should ease them in slowly. Listening to Angel Dust first could be considered like a person who has never done drugs doing Acid, Coke, Heroin and Meth all at the same time. lol
I’ve been a die hard MetallicA fan since 1986 and in my estimation, the guys have managed to pull flavors from every album into this song and then up the ante with innovative lyrics and song architecture. Truly amazing.
Love this song. Easily my favorite on Hardwired... To Self Destruct. Yes it did come out in 2016. Thank you Garth. Thank you Lost In Vegas for reacting to this song. That poster is dope. Really happy for you guys. You guys deserve more subscribers. My favorite reaction channel for sure. If you want more Metallica, I would suggest their song Dyers Eve. My suggestions are still Replica by Fear Factory and Nookie by Limp Bizkit but definitely do more Metallica. Anyways, thanks for this reaction. Keep up the good work :)
Those songs would be good choices. The reason I am choosing Replica is because it was the song that got me into Fear Factory and it is a song that I still go back to a lot, along with the songs you mentioned.
DISCLAIMER: Metallica’s label BLOCKED our initial upload! This is the HEAVILY EDITED second version! FYI
Fucking Awsome
Lost In Vegas unbelievably great choice cannot wait to watch!!!!
Love seein black folk talkin about my love... heavy metal..... that bein said can you all react to 2pac.... ambitions of a ridah? Love your channel

Yes Metallica still plays like this and they are 50 yrs old. Gods of Metal for sure.
55yrs old* It's an important distinction because when you get to that age, every year feels like 10 lol.
They really are
*57 years old currently
@@djjazzyjeff1232 As somone who just turned 56, I agree.

Spit Out the Bone is peak post modern Metallica. This is as good as it gets in this era of Metallica.
Moth Into Flame in the same category
This is as good as Metallica gets period. This is up there right next to anything they ever have done.

Metallica needs to do a reaction to your reaction. This has to happen!
live in 89 is the beat
That would be awesome to say
Haunting History ......never know, they might.
All the love and money my generation has committed to Metallica they really should do a reaction to your reaction. Would be awesome.
They already reacted. They blocked their first upload. Typical.

One of favorites!!!
Yes yes yes

Top 5 for me from Metallica
@@pedroat750 disposable heroes is better..
PANTERA - CEMETERY GATES! METALLICA - SANITARIUM!
Rammstein or Faith no More , I’m still waiting for those 2 bands
Im seeing a lot of rammstein. I hope they do Sonne. Not scared of the german hah.
They would love Faith No More and for sure do a deep dive. Fnm is the definition if free thinking
WHO HERE WANTS 5 MINUTES ALONE ?!
OH YES PLEASE !
Yes! I'd prefer Cemetery Gates or Message in Blood, but I'd settle for 5MA
Omg yes please!!
Thiago Rabelo Batista Pereira yes
They most likely wont react to anymore Pantera, after seeing Phils "white power" rant. Goes against there free thinking message. They asked the fans on twitter for opinions and most thought they shouldn't...
It warms my heart to see people appreciate Metallica old and new music. They are absolutely blessed with undying talent
Schism by Tool is a must listen. Lyrics are amazing
This, or Parabol/Parabola would be cool.
Bill Shakespeare - yep agreed, wondered why it wasn't their first Tool, port of call.
Blackened - Metallica
in my top 3 for sure of Metallica songs
lee carter the intro always gets me pumped up!
Have you guys listened to "Creeping Death" ?? Orion or Call of Ktulu by Metallica?
Patrick Rooney I
Don’t overlook “To Live is to Die.”
Patrick Rooney nah, they need to get to a lot of classics still.
"I'm waiting to not like a metallica song!"
*checks channel today*
"Oh, I see you've found St. Anger..."
Yes:)
HAHA bro true
I don't get why people don't like that song. It's thrash metal.
John Doe honestly, I don’t mind it! I could rock out to St. Anger but it’s just the drums...It gets annoying really fast😂
@@soloangel7773 I personally love the drums. They're unique, almost industrial sounding.
Metallica - Orion (instrumental)
Great Choice! I‘d like to See them react to „To live is to die“ too
Yes please lol too both
A masterpiece!!
Orion is a classic. My favorite song
Fight Fire With Fire
Hangar 18! Megadeth!
They are Metal GODS!
Please do Metallica - ALL NIGHTMARE LONG, you'll lose your damn minds!
Yea man. It's a heavy brutal thrash piece.
This is the song which was based on Rob Trujillo's Flamenco riff thingy.. yup.. I love it..
Agreed
Shouts out to Garth! That poster is dope. It encompasses how a lot of us free thinking metalheads feel about what you guys are doing. Keep it up!
This song is FIRE. It's crazy that these guys are in their 50's yet still creating music that's better than most of the stuff that's coming out today.
One another note, would it be possible to do heavily edited reactions to Led Zeppelin songs? Would that get it past the copyright problems? You guys would like "In My Time of Dying".
Chaos Thierry led zep copyrights are airtight from what ive heard.
That really sucks bad. I don't understand why bands, especially older bands, are so tight lipped on this stuff. They're getting free publicity out of all of this.
Pantera - Cemetary Gates ( not the video) or Domination! You guys will rock it!!! Not gonna stoo till you watch them!!!
I couldn’t agree more with what Garth said in his letter. The posts that say they hate Enter Sandman are not free thinkers. When a band is around as long as Metallica, they need to experiment.
That poster is so sweet!!! 🤘
I think it's time. Time for maybe the #1 progressive rock song. "Roundabout" by Yes. Amazing bass-line and songwriting. Technical, melodic, emotional, and commercial all in one. Great starting point to get into Prog rock. Free-thinkers!
HELL YES!!!
React to Dyers Eve by Metallica!!
Whoa.... I haven't heard this yet until this video. Sounds like Metallica is back to greatness
Alex Thorn their latest album hardwired to self destruct and the album before it death magnetic are definitely return to form metallica albums, highly reccomended
The last two albums are certainly a return to form. Lots of very good songs. Spit out the bone is one of my all time favorite Met songs.
Metallica - Creeping Death, Battery or Blackened!
JFCBFilms Fuck yeah Blackened!
Metallica- no leaf clover
Hell yeah Creeping Death love 1989 🤘🤘
Guys, go early. Review Whiplash. You won't regret it.
Blackened!
Incredible song,Wish Metallica could give us more of this lane
You kidding? This was one of the best songs they have made in *years* and they're starting to sound like their old thrash selves again!
THESNEAKERADDICT this song just goes to ahow Metallica can still delivered the goods I agree with you wish the album was more in this tempo...
Richard Skipper spit got the best lyrics for social media society.
Gabriel Carpenter definitely
Dect Lariosa I agree
Faith No More- The Real Thing!
I found you guys today when I got home from work annnnnd I'm hooked!!! Mad props to you guys! It's so refreshing to see someone pushing for everyone to be open minded 😍
I've listened to Metallica since i was a kid and seen them live many times and seeing you guys enjoy them and your comments have made me rethink their songs meanings. Excellent!!! Keep killing it guys!!!
I’ve been a Metallica fan since I was a kid in the late 80’s. I love it all. Yes even the load years.
Mike M Only a real fan can like Load, ReLoad and St. Anger \,,/
better the load years than their post 00s work.
Death-Flesh and the Power it Holds!!!!
PLEASSSEEEEEE THISSSSSSSSSS OR BITE THE PAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OR THE PHILOSOPHER OR ANY DEATH SONG!!!!!!!
Don’t let the metal elitists try to bring you down to their hipster level - enjoy what you want to enjoy! Been a Metallica fan since the early 90s when I was a kid (...And Justice for All was the first album I ever purchased), and this is one of my favorite songs from them. Instant classic. Glad you guys enjoyed it as well!
First 'Tallica album was Ride The Lightning. Aside from LuLu, there is not a single album of theirs I "hate", though it took me a long time to warm up to St. Anger. Even Load/ReLoad are fantastic. Truly one of the bands that made up my formative years. Goddamn I loved growing up during those days when this music was new.
+Don King (Witchdoctor1) I wouldn't consider Lulu as one of their albums. It was a collab that they did with lou reed and seemed more like a side project rather than a Metallica album. If anything it was a Lou Reed album ft. Metallica haha
Iced Honey is listenable...
3 years later and I’m commenting. Honest to God, this song is AMAZING and is still one of my all time favorite Metallica songs. People need to realize they’re never going to sound like Master of Puppets again, why would they? Humans evolve and with that, so does music. This song, and most of this album, is a masterpiece of Metallica evolution. They’ll forever be my favorite band.
Motörhead - Ace of Spades
Overkill!
killed by death is the best option for them to ear
fuck yeah, british dirty fucking metal, AOS is literally dirtiest sounding metal sound back then
I'm going to lobby for Overkill until they listen to it. The Ace of Spades is the obvious choice, but Overkill has cooler ideas, musically. It's not my favourite song ever, but it sounds like it has influenced a lot of metal musicians. That's why.
I agree with you, but I was choosing a song for them to like, those are pretty good to
people love to hate metallica, its a trend. people who say metallica sucks really just want you to ask them what their favorite band is, they will have an answer for that. listening to metallica got me into playing guitar when i was a teenager and ill always remember that.
Nostrathomas85 I concur. And that answer is always --Megadeth.
lmao touché
metallica songs, so easy any child can learn
osgeld That's actually true. And I love that! Easy yet fkn perfect
same here brother still playing guitar 12 years on fucking love metallica
all nightmare long - metallica
Absolutely
Yes. Best song they’ve done this millennium
all nightmare long is a masterpiece
You haven't done a Metallica reaction in a long time! You have to do: Metallica - Disposable Heroes
I love how george deffends Lars ;) hahahaha
I think it's cool to hear from someone who understands music but who isn't a metalhead complimenting Lars. He doesn't have the insane standards of drumming that metalheads do and I don't think he cares if a drummer goes on a crazy tangent. He understands that the drumming works perfectly within the context of the song. That's what is great about Lars. He isn't flashy but he's as fundamentally sound as they come.
William Koscielniak exactly correct man! Love these guys and how they breakdown without comparing which gives an unbiased opinion.
Yeah but he hasn’t seen Lars butcher the song live. He no doubt has talent when it comes to writing, but when he plays it live he waters down fills and skips double bass parts and makes countless mistakes. A good writer yes but a shitty player
Haha, he's an okay drummer.
BabyFart McGeezacks okay writer, bad drummer
APC - The Package, I'm very confident you guys will get a kick out of this one.
Lucifer Isgood Absolutely. Pet would work too
definitely
Magdalena / Weak and Powerless are their best songs. And the best song by MJK is Potion, in my opinion.
YoooooGarth here (I messaged you on facebook and the posters came from Florida if y'all need proof). Man I didn't think you guys were gonna give me a shout out like that! I'm super happy you guys liked that poster so much. Keep doing what you're doing cos RUclips needs more POSITIVE FREE THINKERS like you guys. Much love!
PS: Here's the logo and wireframe if you guys wanna check it out in a little more detail i.imgur.com/qmCiiUK.jpg
That poster is amazing! Do you do custom stuff like that? I would love something similar for my man cave! Thanks
Thanks man! I'm a graphic designer by trade. I just did this for fun but if I get some time in the future I'll take you up on that!
Thanks! That means a lot to me!
Cold Toes Industries how much to make me something lol??
Just make a badass youtube channel that I love and I do it for free... worked for LostInVegas lol
As a long time Metallica fan it is one of their best songs
I agree, It felt great hearing such a masterpiece come out this deep into their career.
Pantera - Domination !!!!Live In Moscow
Domination = Pantera
Metallica for whom the bell tolls
I am just now finding this channel, and I have jumped all over the place with your reactions to Metallica songs. I started with y'all doing Megadeth Holy Wars, then went to straight Metallica reactions. Metallica and Megadeth both are in my top 5 band of all time. I have been listening and enjoy them both for decades. Y'all's reactions to them.....has refreshed my love for them. Not that it ever went away, but you know, when you listen to something for decades you forget how much you enjoyed it when you first heard of these songs....these bands. And man....the way y'all lay it out and react. I love it! ABSOLUTELY has sparked a flame in how much I love these bands. This is my favorite reaction so far. Because Goerge just gives up. I love it! Speechless. Nothing more to say. The Metallica songs I have heard y'all review so far are Master of Puppets, One, Orion, Blackened, Fade To Black, and the one I watched before this was St. Anger. So needless to say this was hilarious when y'all said Metallica can do no wrong and that you wanted to find a Metallica song y'all didn't like. Lol. Spit out the Bone even come out AFTER the St. Anger Album lol. But I still can appreciate St. Anger, but I will say it wasn't their best work though. But I will forever be a hardcore Metallica fan. So THANK YOU! Thank you both! For allowing me to see it through fresh eyes/ears again! I love your channel. I can't wait to listen to more in the coming future!
Death - Symbolic !
DIRE STRAITS SULTANS of SWING
Lukas Kucera up
I would like to see you guys react to Metallica's The Day That Never Comes. it hits home to me as a combat vet. It's on their Death Magnetic album. It's done sort of in the same style as One.
Kelley Rawlings I'd like to see them react to that and The Judas Kiss! That album is so underrated and mostly because people want to complain about the compression issues from sound engineers. The music is still amazing!
I think you guys would really like "Atlas Rise" from the same album.
If Atlas Rise had been faster, it would have been a great epic song. Play it at 1.25 speed and it is perfect! Moth Into the Flame, Hardwired to Self Destruct, Atlas Rise and 'Spit Out the Bone' are some of the best Metallica songs since 'And Justice for All'
That's my favorite from the album, so good
@@guibox3 atlas rise is literally the fastest song on the record
Samford Um....no that would be “Spit Out the Bone”! And “Hardwired to Self destruct” is faster than Atlas Rise”
@@guibox3 nope, check the bpm. Just because it has tremolo picking doesn't means its faster
NINE INCH NAILS ~ You guys are always talking about how you're looking for more "fusion"; nine inch nails is a mix of rave/electronica/house with R&B and is largely bass and beat oriented with the heaviness of one of the FOUNDERS of industrial music. Start with the album 'Pretty hate Machine' for a more dance-oriented feel and it just gets darker 'Broken'/'Fixed' until a more perfect mix in 'Downward Spiral', but there are MANY top songs I KNOW you guys would like. For a 'request' to start you off with; 'Closer'.
This NEEDS to happen.
I've been suggesting this on every vid! Thank you lol
Personally I dont know why they haven't yet. It's a crime to not do a review on NIN in my book.
I love that you guys love Metallica so much. They're easily the premier metal band on the planet for a reason, though a lot of people bash them for being 'too popular'.
Most loved therefore most hated
destrus1976 People hate them because of Load - St. Anger.
I would argue, as I have since 1998, that you could make one REALLY amazing album from the material on Load/Reload....
King Nothing, Fuel, Ain't My Bitch, Hero Of The Day, Bleeding Me, Fixxxer, Attitude, Outlaw Torn, The House That Jack Built, Until It Sleeps, 2x4, Wasting My Hate, Better Than You, Prince Charming.
....but no, there is no defending St Anger.
destrus1976 Yeah Load and Reload aren't as bad as people say. But St. Anger is just shit. The quality is ass and the songs aren't good at all.
Brandon, agreed. There are only 3 'decent' songs on St Anger. I would say that Some Kind Of Monster, The Unnamed Feeling, and Frantic are all decent songs....not great....but decent. That being said, I think after 2002 or 2003, I have only listened to St Anger a handful of times. Like once every 2 or 3 years just to see if it has aged any better....
But the production quality is non-existent. It sounds like they recorded it in a bathroom. Lars sounds like he is playing on trash can lids instead of drums. The bass tone is gone completely. There are no solos....and James' vocals are terrible and the lyrical quality is also garbage.
it's just ass. Total ass.
Metallica - Blackened.
Leebabins YESSSSS , I was just about to request it!!!!!!
Omg yes, now!
Blackend is an OG !
You need creeping feat or harvester of sorrow!!
Meant creeping death
I’ve listened to them since the beginning and finally saw them in concert about 2 weeks ago, badass live as well.
You guys really need to listen to some Faith No More. These guys were huge influences to so many of the bands that spawned at the end of the 90's and early 2000's. Epic is probably their most well known song but to me, The Real Thing is one of their best songs. It's a deep album cut that highlights their musicianship, vocals and some deep lyrics that I've been trying to decipher since the 1989.
philiposm i would like for them to just do some songs from Angel Dust, like everythings ruined or even a song like A small victory or midlife crisis
Songs they would love are Ashes to Ashes, Ricochet, Stripsearch, Evidence, or Midlife Crisis. Others too I'm sure, but definitely those
Yeah, those would be the more accessible songs from that album. I think we should ease them in slowly. Listening to Angel Dust first could be considered like a person who has never done drugs doing Acid, Coke, Heroin and Meth all at the same time. lol
Welcome home (sanitarium)- Metallica.....PLEASEEE
Dylan Lawson agree. They will over that tune.
I agree as well. Great song, these guys will absolutely love it.
Death - Spiritual Healing or Scavenger of Human Sorrow
I’ve been a die hard MetallicA fan since 1986 and in my estimation, the guys have managed to pull flavors from every album into this song and then up the ante with innovative lyrics and song architecture. Truly amazing.
Pantera - 5 Minutes Alone
Yeah gotta do 5 min alone
CEMETERY GATES
White Zombie: Thunder Kiss 65, some groove metal for ya
"I'm done!!!" haha Loved it.
I LOVE HOW YOU GUYS WIG THE EFF OUT...its so freaking great. George, you just get so caught up in the fury. You guys have it...Metal-itis!
Love this song. Easily my favorite on Hardwired... To Self Destruct. Yes it did come out in 2016. Thank you Garth. Thank you Lost In Vegas for reacting to this song. That poster is dope. Really happy for you guys. You guys deserve more subscribers. My favorite reaction channel for sure. If you want more Metallica, I would suggest their song Dyers Eve. My suggestions are still Replica by Fear Factory and Nookie by Limp Bizkit but definitely do more Metallica. Anyways, thanks for this reaction. Keep up the good work :)
they would like Fear Factory I would recommend Edgecrusher or archetype
Those songs would be good choices. The reason I am choosing Replica is because it was the song that got me into Fear Factory and it is a song that I still go back to a lot, along with the songs you mentioned.
Thats cool my intro to them was Slave Labor
"Replica" would be GREAT! Im going to listen to that now!!
I love Atlas, Rise!
Death - Flesh And The Power It Holds
That poster is prime
What a wonderful attitude these two have in general.
If you are a fan of Death and want to see the boys do the song Crystal Mountain UPVOTE my comment!!!!!!! Come on guys!!!!!
Adrián Olivas agree...sorry I can only vote once
I honestly prefier Flesh And Power It Holds
+The Man Among Men fuck yes flesh and the power it holds
You know what my friend?! this is sad...you know what I mean.
seconded
Well, I WAS going to go to bed. Let me just wait another 15 minutes...
Amazing reaction guys! One hell of a song.
You guys are truly awesome, addicted to your channel so doing the binge thing since I just came to it lol
