You deserve MILLIONS of subscribers. Literally this is the most underrated channel on RUclips. Please never change man,
Well damn didnt he make a dramatic change... i loved watching his reaction vids. Pulled me right out of depression and here i am daily watching the same ones cause he a true reactor to my fave bands
Kirk has some haters, but I think it stems from jealousy. To me, Kirk is the greatest guitarist alive. Sure, Eddie Van Halen and Joe Satriani and many others are better from a technical standpoint, but I'd rather LISTEN to Kirk than anyone else. His playing touches your soul
I saw Metallica in 1997 in Memphis. Met the band. I was on the barricade, not 6 feet from the stage. The lead singer, James Hetfield jumped down and handed me the pick he played "Nothing Else Matters" with....right after the solo and just at the crescendo to the song. That was over 20 years ago and I still remember that just like it happened yesterday. Long time Metallica fan here. "Fade to Black" is one of my favorites.
They kick ass on stage for 3 hours straight! I have been to 5 and at one I was so close that I had Jame's sweat on me! You have to see them in concert they sound the same as they do on YTube.
I was 3rd row in Philly last month, but u probably beat me if u were as close as u say lol. You should go to one on this tour, there's still like 20 more shows. (And btw, I'm the king of Dollar Tree) lol

You've mentioned in almost every Metallica video that you've done that you really enjoy their instrumentation, so it would behoove you to check out a group called Apocalyptica... they recreate Metallica songs using only four cellos. The guitar riffs, solos, even the lyrics. It's truly haunting and beautiful.
I was about 12 yrs old when I first heard them (1984) LOVE THEM...bout 16 when first seen them. The energy in the air.. is like pure electric passion. ..the wall of fans into eternity!!! AMAZING... I seen them again after the black album. Well the best ever was I won tickets in Detroit on RIFF radio for 6th row for NEW YEARS 2000!!! I WAS IN TEARS OF JOY
I've seen them live last year in August. Most powerful experience in my life. I felt like drunk and high at the same time, but I was completely sober. That music and energy from the band is amazing.
Watching you listening to this for the first time makes me jealous because I want to be able to hear these songs again for the first time. I've watched about 15 of your vids. Keep up the great vids.
Metallica is still awesome live to this day. They had a rough patch from the late 90's to mid 2000's but they sound good again. Not the same energy as 30 years ago but they are in their 50's now. They sounded awesome in 2008. Their concerts in the 80's and early 90's are absolutely legendary. Unarguably one of the best live acts ever. They had an energy and connection to the crowd like no other band. You must check out the Live Shit Binge and Purge box set shows. Seattle 89 and San Diego 92 are amazing. Especially Seattle. One of the best concerts put to tape. Blackened, Creeping Death, Battery, For Whom The Bell Tolls, Sanitarium, The Four Horseman, ...And Justice For All, Whiplash. It is all great.
CLureCo as a bass player for over 30 years yes PT is crazy AWESOME and the best work he's done as a basses, but you can't deny the perfect solo bass harmonys of Burton in Orion!!!
Metallica has been my favorite band for 20 years since I first discovered metal. I'm finally going to see Metallica for the first time this December 9th!
I've been of Metallica ever since I heard Seek and Destroy back in '83 and have seen them many times.. They blew my mind the first time I saw them,Master of Puppets tour. Seen every tour since.. Nuff said.
Dude...you were at the live shit binge and purge show in Seattle? Fucking amazing. That show is why I play guitar. Never seen something so furious especially the To live is to die jumping into Master. Fucking furious.
Obsessed with your reactions man. I love seeing people discover the world of rock, metal and grunge. There’s so many more hidden gems for you to find bro
It makes me happy to see someone appreciate the greatest band of all time! (to my knowledge) They ain't just the king of transition, they are the kings of instrumental & solo's. They also have complete albums of great songs. Not 1 song on any album is just ok! They are all great!! I can go on all day givin reasons why they are kings (gods of rock) Keep smiling :) RockoN 🤘
Metallica is by far the best concert band ive seen. I was sure they werent really playing ( sounded too perfect) until Kirk Hammit trip on his cord and fucked up one of his solos for about 4 seconds. They are flawless in concert.
Thanks for the reactions! Great to see more people open minded enough to really listen and understand what us lucky ones have known since the 80's...keep digging. There are many, many more gems like this one!
i saw them live in Oslo, Norway back in summer of -99. absolutely rocked the show. they even performed an hour more than they had to, cause the vibe was so frikkin good. they did all the good old songs, all the classics....and i sung so hard i didnt have any voice left after the concert. also...they played so loud i had no hearing until the next morning...totally worth it! will never forget.
I went to a metallica concert last summer. It was my first time going to any concert and I dont think it could have been any better. The music was so loud it hurt but i loved it, the crowd was going insane, and Metallica delivered like only they can. I was pumped full of adrenaline the entire time had the best time of my life. Nothing can ever compare.
Talking about Metallica concerts, Seattle live 1989 tour...... nuff said. I've never been to another concert to date that can even come close to that experience... it's on RUclips Preston, look it up and watch it when you get the chance. And just imagine being there. I was so lucky to have been able to see that performance.
I have watched that concert 100 times. I'm so jelous. But i was born november of that year, so what ya gonna do 🤷♂️. However, not sure if you've seen videos of their most recent tour, but i think its the best one since the justice for all tour.
Hey man...was at the Justice tour as well in Toronto CA.....One of the best concerts I have ever seen and loud....the music went through your whole body it was mesmerizing....Its a toss up between Metallica and Soundgarden for the 2 best concerts I have seen
I've been to 5 'Tallica concerts. Number 6 is coming in October! You have to see metallica live, they are a live band! They are great on albums but really shine when live!! GO!! They are the Led Zeppelin of our time.
This is true cultural appropriation. Someone on the outside of a culture can respect and enjoy something from another culture. This is the only way to MAYBE understand a person or where they are coming from. Or at least it's on the right track
Michael Dragus I was going to say something similar I love that he's breaking down stereotypes and appreciating music from other cultures and he has earned himself a subscriber
Jack One of the best shows I’ve ever seen. I only went because the wife loves them and some of my favorite bands wouldn’t exist without them. Never been more entertained by a show. I had more personal memories like when I saw Vio-lence at a 3,000 person venue where it was just my band and their roadies there, nobody else. I’ve still never seen a performance like Maiden though.
Well. Im 46. I was 15 in 89'. Trust me. Seeing them as a teen at Starwood in Nashville TN, when the music was shaping me, is totally different than hearing them in 2015 or something. As teens were impressionable. And they had an impression on me as an aspiring guitarist. Just stood in awe. Same with GnR, Pearl Jam, etc.
Ride the lightning was the first CD of music I ever purchased or owned. It will always hold a special place in my heart and to this day Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and The Black Album still hold the highest ratio of fully body chills : songs of any artist I've ever heard. So inspiring and emotionally resonant. They describe in music what can never truly be put in words.
woodyburns Doesn't sound like a rip off to me. I don't know what you're smoking but Fade to Black sounds a lot better than anything Iron Maiden has ever done.
Great reactions, man! For Metallica instrumentals: Orion, Call of Ktulu, To live is to Die. Other thrash masterpieces by Metallica: Disposable Heroes, Battery, Damage Inc, Fight Fire with fire...and the list goes on. Keep 'em coming, man!
I‘ve learned this song like 8 years ago. And up to this day there is pretty much no session where i don’t play the ending solo at least as a warm up. Imo this song is just pure perfection, imagine writing something like this, oh man, every note is just where it belongs and should never ever be something else, thats what i dont like about the live performance of this song, kirk always butchers the ending solo into something else but hey after so many years playing it almost every week or so live, well you have to mix it up a bit. But fade to black is so much fun to play even after 8 years.
this was the first Matallica album i got when i was like 10. . got it for my birthday with a sony walkman. .. i didnt take my headphones off for a week. . .
I love this channel, it’s really interesting to see someone experience the music I love for the first time. You sir have a true open mind to music, and that’s really awesome! I love Metallica, and they were the first concert I ever saw in February, 2016. I couldn’t believe how amazing they were live. Heavy Music forever! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
I love your reaction videos because you are so open and honest. Whether you like a song or not, you are very respectful and that is awesome! Keep it up!
Budgie Cat I totally agree with that. Whatever he had, at least in regards to coming up with new licks, he kind of misplaced it. On stage, playing the catalog, he's awesome.
@Budgie Cat so you learned how to play indirectly from a man that you now know and play better than.. who just happens to be known as one of the best electric guitarists ever..? Shut up. It's easy to say anything you want about yourself and what you know, from behind an alias, in your safe place where only you know who you are. You work at Burger King.
First time I saw them, 2017 they played this, completely blown away, the song was nearly 10 mins and they gave us a “special ending”. Saw them again this past October, absolute insanity bro. They are incredible live
James Hetfield - vocals and rhythm guitar Kirk Hammett - lead guitar (he does the solos) Lars Ulrich - drums Cliff Burton - bass Cliff was on the first 3 Metallica albums, but then he died in a car accident in 1986 while the band was on tour in Europe. Metallica replaced Cliff with Jason Newsted in 1986. Jason was on the 4th-7th albums. Jason left the band in 2001. Metallica replaced Jason with Rob Trujillo in 2003, and has been with the band ever since, being part of their last 2 albums. I saw Metallica for my first time ever in July 2017 at the Rose Bowl. It was the best concert I’ve ever been to. Metallica’s own channel has a large amount of videos from their current worldwide tour. I highly recommend checking out Spit Out the Bone - live London 2017. It is absolutely sick. If you want to see Metallica performing at their absolute best, their absolute peak.....then you have to react to either Blackened or Battery live Seattle 1989. The Seattle 1989 show is well regarded as being their finest live performance ever. Keep dishing out Metallica reactions. It’s just as fun for us metal veterans to watch as it is for you to first discover it.
Firebirdz CAB dude seriously? Semantics. I know he died in a bus crash. Saying he died in a car crash is the same fucking thing. Especially to someone who just started listening to Metallica 3 days ago.
Firebirdz CAB bus, car. Whatever. He died in an automobile accident. All the info I gave him was correct. And your need to correct me is ridiculous and unnecessary. Good day.
So happy seeing this, the chills and tears I gir hearing this for the first time and even now blows me away. Seeing this makes me so happy like it was me listening to it for the first time.
Even though I grew up w/this music that's how I felt when I listened the 1st time. ! That's WHY I luv watching u watch it brings the whole 1st time experience back. I believe for me the Music will always bring back the experience so Thank You!!!
Me too. You've tapped into something HUGE. Every metalhead wants people to understand why we love the music. We just want to be understood. It's a lonely musical life...
Back in 2010, on March 3rd, they came to the Estadio Universitario in Monterrey, México, I was 17 and had this scolarship, I used the money to buy the tickets and take my dad and my brother with me. It was really a experience, I was in love with the band back then, and I still am, but then was more like a girly thing xD a fangirl thing xD and man, it was brutal, really brutal. Can't belive it's been almost 10 years. Time flies away, I guess.
I've seen METALLICA live 4 times, and you HAVE to see it in person to REALLY understand their power. I guess the next best thing would be to watch "Creeping Death" live in Moscow.
Holy shit. For real. When the Metallica crew started testing Lars' drum set right before the show, the sound waves to the chest were overwhealming. Saw them in Argentina in 2017. My first big concert ever :D
I know this is an older vid, but the first time I saw Metalica was in 1984, at an old movie theater called the Palace here in Cleveland. None of us had heard of them, nobody had. I've been a fan ever since. BTW, that was when Mustaine was still in the band.
Transitioning from middle school to high school ... the summer. My first love and we broke up. My summer consisted of listening to this album. Probably not the best choice... I was definitely going through a spiritual awakening after that. I saw METALLICA 4 times... Just saw them again with their tour in oct of 2018... Took my son to go see them. We were 15 ft from the stage. This band has crossed generations from boomers to millennials.. ✌ They were my childhood. Gen X ... born in 1975. This was legit my childhood.
Kirk Hammet considered Rudolph Schenker of 'Scorpions' his idol when he was learning to play guitar, and even when he was already making albums he would go to Joe Satriani for lessons to improve his guitar playing.
Fade To Black is one of my favorites. It actually has seven different guitar pieces in the composition. I don't usually go into my interpretation of what the song means because I don't want it to influence what it might mean to others, but I think you got it. It's not about death, it's about facing life. Once you face your fears, even death, there is nothing else in this world that can control you.
I saw them in San Francisco in 1988 Monsters of Rock tour. Van Halen was headlining their new album. Scorpions, Metallica (Who was finishing up their Master of Puppets tour) Dokken, and a New band Kingdom Come were there. Scorpions and Metallica stole the show.
Saw Metallica 4 times and you'd fit right in! I still have my Justice (88') concert shirt, never washed, and the blood on it is brown now. "One" was the finale. 10 rows from the stage. When the later solo started, chairs started flying.. Despite the pint of blood lost, Justice was one of the best friggin concerts ever!
Found your channel today. Am glad ya like the music so far. Don't get me wrong.. there are plenty of bands/songs that will be suggested to you that you most likely will not enjoy at all. It's cool either way b/c not all bands will appeal to everyone. Metallica, imo, is one of those few bands that are a good gateway to Metal. The band 'Black Sabbath' are also a good gateway into Metal. Both bands are very talented musicians and songwriters with plenty of solid material that are liked across many genres. That being said.. you might want to check out the song 'Heaven and Hell' by the band 'Black Sabbath'. It was before Metallica came to exist so will sound a bit older.. but the vocalist 'Ronnie James Dio' was a major influence on Metallica. In fact, Metallica did a 3-song medley tribute to Ronnie James Dio when he died back around 2010. The medley included songs from before 'Heaven and Hell' when Dio was with the band 'Rainbow' (which is also another band to check out.. specifically the song 'Stargazer') In either case.. keep on checking out the music and do not be afraid to say if you do not like something.. just explain what ya didn't like and then we can adjust our suggestions to more closely match what you will most likely enjoy ;) Peace
UOAbigail LeVey, I definitely agree! Ronnie James Dio brought Black Sabbath to a whole new level. In my opinion Ronnie was/is the best metal vocalist that ever lived! He is greatly missed!!
Honestly dude, in my opinion, music is art. And as such, the artist's interpretation and the viewer's interpretation may be different, but that's ok. As long as it's speaking to him then it doesn't matter if his meaning and the artist's meaning are the same.
Uh so they wrote songs with how they were feeling or going through or whatever at the time . Folk relate to it. We feel it and move on and don't dwell...
Metallica in concert are bad azz! Haven't seen them live since Cliff Burton was still with them. Shows you how old I am. This song got me through a hellish childhood.
Kirk Hammett - Lead Guitar Kirk is a very accomplished player with many classic and respected solos though he is criticized quite often for over use of wah wah. An effect produced by stepping on a 'wah pedal'. Also, he lacks some songwriting ability as he is not credited on much of their catalog, though he has written parts to some of the bands most recognizable songs. Some say he is overrated and some adore him. He is though, still a very well respected guitarist for contributing to Metallica's unique sound in a big way and for his timeless, classic guitar solos. A big influence on me and many others who picked up a guitar in the 80's and 90's and even present day. James Hetfield - Rhythm Guitar/Vocals James is one of two remaining founding members of the band along with drummer Lars Ulrich. These two have been the main driving force of the Metallica machine for most of their existence. Together James and Lars wrote and recorded the song Hit The Lights which basically gave birth to a new genre called Thrash Metal that combined the raw sound and speed of punk music with British heavy metal. After not wanting to sing James became comfortable in the role and has become a very well respected front man. His voice is unmistakable and one of the best in metal. His rhythm guitar playing is almost legendary. He has an excellent down picking technique that was rarely if ever seen in rock/metal up to that point. His down picking would sound as though he was using a tremolo or speed picking technique which is up and down and easier to do creating a bit different sound. He has been one of or the main riff writer in the band the entirety of their existence and has obviously created some amazing music over all these years. LONG LIVE METALLICA! LONG LIVE METAL! METAL UP YOUR ASS AND ROCK ON!
"I could just ride around and listen to their instrumentals. You don't even need the words"
This guy gets it
That's when you've become a fan.
Yes! its very nice to hear that guy who listens to rap can appreciate instrumentals because rap music focuses more on lyrics
anttipantti not today's garbage mumble rap.
He just described the Cliff Burton years, to a tee.
Was looking through the comments to make sure someone gave him these instrumentals. Gashthrasher v.2, you the real hero.
Legend has it, Kirk Hammett is still playing this solo. It never stops!!!
LMMFAO!!! This comment had me crying!

Can confirm. Saw them in January and Kirk played it throughout the entire show. 'Twas a sight to behold.
The ending solo is one of those that gives me goosebumps no matter how many times I hear it
Apparently it was all improvised on the stop and that kirk tried playing the most depressing solo he could

he is number 1 in my book man, dude is a legit beast
The person way overlooked is Joe Satriani. If it weren't for Satch - we wouldn't have Kirk

“what i’ve felt, what i’ve known, never shined through in what i’ve shown.” that line hits deep all these years later.
i like your reaction. the lead guitarist is Kirk Hammett. yes a legend
James wrote this song when their equipment was stolen in the spring of 84. I can imagine how sad he was just by hearing this masterpiece. And that's what music is, music is the sound of emotion.
Might be my favorite Kirk Hammett solo at the end. Not his fastest or most complicated, but the most "feeling"
Harmony Wisdom My favorite solo from Kirk is from Unforgiven. But I agree with you, this one has a lot of soul too...
Harmony Wisdom My favourite by far. Both solos. The intro and the end. 1A is Creeping Death for me.
For me the feel of a solo supersedes speed
So true man, their instrumentals are amazing, they are the kings of them. If you want a full instrumental by them, I recommend listening to "Orion". That one is all instruments and is an amazing, epic instrumental song. Aside from that, I also recommend "For Whom The Bell Tolls"
Consolous imo
To live is to die
Consolous hi
+hector madrid .. ooh yea
. one of my favs
Good call on Orion. The call of the ktulu is right up there too.
He said "level up" 12 seconds into the song 💯
Dude, you do a wonderful job with your reviews. You really capture the moment and remind me of my first time listening to these songs.
I wish you the best of luck on your journey my friend.
And the gaming samples you add are flawless. Keep up the great work!

Dude he's like the best
Yeah, that´s the point. It reminds me of my first listenings, too.

Metallica is still awesome live to this day. They had a rough patch from the late 90's to mid 2000's but they sound good again. Not the same energy as 30 years ago but they are in their 50's now. They sounded awesome in 2008. Their concerts in the 80's and early 90's are absolutely legendary. Unarguably one of the best live acts ever. They had an energy and connection to the crowd like no other band. You must check out the Live Shit Binge and Purge box set shows. Seattle 89 and San Diego 92 are amazing. Especially Seattle. One of the best concerts put to tape. Blackened, Creeping Death, Battery, For Whom The Bell Tolls, Sanitarium, The Four Horseman, ...And Justice For All, Whiplash. It is all great.
I’m gonna knock you out of your socks you like instrumentals try “ Orion” Metallica
Larry Reyes What about Call of Ktulu? To Live Is To Die? ANESTHESIA (PULLING TEETH)?
all good...but none as epic as Orion.
CLureCo tru tru but his solo in Orion is epic!!
Orion and Call of Ktulu are both amazing. Bass work on both are fuckin insane
CLureCo as a bass player for over 30 years yes PT is crazy AWESOME and the best work he's done as a basses, but you can't deny the perfect solo bass harmonys of Burton in Orion!!!
Metallica has been my favorite band for 20 years since I first discovered metal. I'm finally going to see Metallica for the first time this December 9th!
Rocketman9mm In Fresno? I was there too! Fucking amazing show.
2009 in Atlanta was amazing and I want to see them again
I've been of Metallica ever since I heard Seek and Destroy back in '83 and have seen them many times.. They blew my mind the first time I saw them,Master of Puppets tour. Seen every tour since.. Nuff said.
I have seen Metallica every time they have been to Seattle since 1985. Amazing live band. 37 years into their career and still kicking ass.
Lee Bunn preach on!!
This^^^^^^ spot on!
Dude...you were at the live shit binge and purge show in Seattle? Fucking amazing. That show is why I play guitar. Never seen something so furious especially the To live is to die jumping into Master. Fucking furious.
Was you at Seattle 89'? If so you are so lucky!
Obsessed with your reactions man. I love seeing people discover the world of rock, metal and grunge. There’s so many more hidden gems for you to find bro
It makes me happy to see someone appreciate the greatest band of all time! (to my knowledge)
They ain't just the king of transition, they are the kings of instrumental & solo's. They also have complete albums of great songs. Not 1 song on any album is just ok! They are all great!!
I can go on all day givin reasons why they are kings (gods of rock)
Keep smiling :)
RockoN 🤘
Metallica is by far the best concert band ive seen. I was sure they werent really playing ( sounded too perfect) until Kirk Hammit trip on his cord and fucked up one of his solos for about 4 seconds. They are flawless in concert.
Thanks for the reactions! Great to see more people open minded enough to really listen and understand what us lucky ones have known since the 80's...keep digging. There are many, many more gems like this one!
i saw them live in Oslo, Norway back in summer of -99. absolutely rocked the show. they even performed an hour more than they had to, cause the vibe was so frikkin good. they did all the good old songs, all the classics....and i sung so hard i didnt have any voice left after the concert. also...they played so loud i had no hearing until the next morning...totally worth it! will never forget.
I went to a metallica concert last summer. It was my first time going to any concert and I dont think it could have been any better. The music was so loud it hurt but i loved it, the crowd was going insane, and Metallica delivered like only they can. I was pumped full of adrenaline the entire time had the best time of my life. Nothing can ever compare.
Watch Pantera or Metallica live at Moscow there was is 1,6 million people in that show, greats from Brazil!
Talking about Metallica concerts, Seattle live 1989 tour...... nuff said. I've never been to another concert to date that can even come close to that experience... it's on RUclips Preston, look it up and watch it when you get the chance. And just imagine being there. I was so lucky to have been able to see that performance.
You lucky lucky bastard
I have watched that concert 100 times. I'm so jelous. But i was born november of that year, so what ya gonna do 🤷♂️. However, not sure if you've seen videos of their most recent tour, but i think its the best one since the justice for all tour.
Hey man...was at the Justice tour as well in Toronto CA.....One of the best concerts I have ever seen and loud....the music went through your whole body it was mesmerizing....Its a toss up between Metallica and Soundgarden for the 2 best concerts I have seen
Saw them same tour but in Detroit. You are correct...nothing like it. No words :)
William Arnett I saw them on this (ride) tour in a nightclub,
and yeah,
EPIC!
I've been to 5 'Tallica concerts. Number 6 is coming in October! You have to see metallica live, they are a live band! They are great on albums but really shine when live!! GO!! They are the Led Zeppelin of our time.
This is true cultural appropriation. Someone on the outside of a culture can respect and enjoy something from another culture. This is the only way to MAYBE understand a person or where they are coming from. Or at least it's on the right track
Michael Dragus I was going to say something similar I love that he's breaking down stereotypes and appreciating music from other cultures and he has earned himself a subscriber
Dude stfu with that race garbage, We see enough of that everywhere else.
Michael Dragus Amen.
Metal ( & all music ) in its true form can be boundless, transcendental and inspirational for all people.😎
Michael Dragus well said
They are consistant live....perfection damn near perfect at all times...best live I have ever seen....MettallicA...NONE better
Don't forget Maiden
Jack
One of the best shows I’ve ever seen. I only went because the wife loves them and some of my favorite bands wouldn’t exist without them. Never been more entertained by a show.
I had more personal memories like when I saw Vio-lence at a 3,000 person venue where it was just my band and their roadies there, nobody else. I’ve still never seen a performance like Maiden though.
I've seen them live 10 times... And I whole heartedly concur, the are near perfection Everytime
They are usually amazing however must say Kirk has some trouble sometimes with solos and Lars with timing. But they're old, it's acceptable.
Cig Economy Yeah Kirk's guitar was off key or something at the Kansas City show last year.
Metallica - Creeping Death
That would be an added to my list too
You should react to Metallica - Battery live in Seattle 1989!!
Well. Im 46. I was 15 in 89'. Trust me. Seeing them as a teen at Starwood in Nashville TN, when the music was shaping me, is totally different than hearing them in 2015 or something. As teens were impressionable. And they had an impression on me as an aspiring guitarist. Just stood in awe. Same with GnR, Pearl Jam, etc.
It's so good to se someone listening to master pieces like that for the first time. Amazing dude, keep listening to rock, you will not regret
you make me smile I've been a metalhead my whole life and your reaction is making me smile
Ride the lightning was the first CD of music I ever purchased or owned. It will always hold a special place in my heart and to this day Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and The Black Album still hold the highest ratio of fully body chills : songs of any artist I've ever heard. So inspiring and emotionally resonant. They describe in music what can never truly be put in words.
Love this reaction my dude! This is hands down my favorite rock song of all time!
Prison Life: Inside & Out Definitely the greatest Metallica song of all time. That solo is just surreal man
FTB is actually a rip off of Iron Maiden's "Children Of The Damned", I'd check that one out
woodyburns Doesn't sound like a rip off to me. I don't know what you're smoking but Fade to Black sounds a lot better than anything Iron Maiden has ever done.
Nightrider749 Blasphemy. FTB came out in 84, COTD came out in 82. FTB is just played faster
Clearly you've never listened to Iron Maiden!
If you like their instrumental react to Orion
seeing your reactions literally brought me to tears. I was 15 when this came out and you remind me how much I love it. Thank you sir.
Great reactions, man! For Metallica instrumentals: Orion, Call of Ktulu, To live is to Die. Other thrash masterpieces by Metallica: Disposable Heroes, Battery, Damage Inc, Fight Fire with fire...and the list goes on. Keep 'em coming, man!
Erik Wik You forgot Leper Messiah
Haha...I forgot the rest of the first 4-5 albums...tons of epic tunes.
Yeah, let' s get him to react to ORION
Erik Wik Yeah plus All Nightmare Long and Spit out the Bone.
Orion hits you deep
It just makes u want to learn how to play the guitar. 🎶
Oh trust me it's fun to play this song.
I‘ve learned this song like 8 years ago. And up to this day there is pretty much no session where i don’t play the ending solo at least as a warm up.
Imo this song is just pure perfection, imagine writing something like this, oh man, every note is just where it belongs and should never ever be something else, thats what i dont like about the live performance of this song, kirk always butchers the ending solo into something else but hey after so many years playing it almost every week or so live, well you have to mix it up a bit.
But fade to black is so much fun to play even after 8 years.
Aaand that's how I started learning in Middle School. Just a hobby but I had a lot of fun with it :)
This is the song that inspired me to learn guitar. That outro solo is the greatest
Little did you know us guitarists cried to this song.
we're smiling with you
Trust me, big brother
I sincerely enjoy watching you react to my childhood’s favorite songs. Keep it up man you have good taste.
How or why you never listened to Metallica is beyond me. Welcome to one of the best metal bands in the world.
3. For Whom the Bell Tolls and 4. Fade to Black are two of the greatest back to back tracks ever recorded. Masterpieces
this was the first Matallica album i got when i was like 10. . got it for my birthday with a sony walkman. .. i didnt take my headphones off for a week. . .
Dee Boy aww Sony Walkman memories
Dee Boy anch'io!!!
Metallica- Blackened
I love this channel, it’s really interesting to see someone experience the music I love for the first time. You sir have a true open mind to music, and that’s really awesome! I love Metallica, and they were the first concert I ever saw in February, 2016. I couldn’t believe how amazing they were live. Heavy Music forever! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
My Son has been to 5 Metallica concerts, they are an Awesome band !! I got my son to love them when he was a little boy.
Brenda Peterson that’s awesome
You're a badass mom! 🤘
I wish i had a mom like you not that i dont love my mom i love my mom i wish she was just cool like you
Omkar Ghumare Not trying to be a cool mom, always loved rock-metal music my entire life . Metallica is a great group. We are close in age as well.
Brenda Peterson so are we?? So i suppose i might find a gurl like you eeh🙈🙈
Metallica are the absolute gods of all things rock and metal
Greg Sweigart Metallica is awesome, Iron Maiden kicks ass as well.
Megadeth \m/
I love your reaction videos because you are so open and honest. Whether you like a song or not, you are very respectful and that is awesome! Keep it up!
Can you react to The Four horsemen by Metallica it's off their first album kill em all
Craig Hipsher yes yes yes
forsenW
Lenny Robertson didn't expect to see a baj here
The Bajs are everywhere forsenE
Exact next song I was thinking of. He'll love the change-ups
Kirk Hammett can shred bro
im learning all the songs on the stratocaster
Not anymore, watch the videos of him online fucking up nonstop in the studio and rob Trujillo playing his licks easily.
Mike K - wow. You don’t play the guitar obviously. He kills it still
Budgie Cat I totally agree with that. Whatever he had, at least in regards to coming up with new licks, he kind of misplaced it. On stage, playing the catalog, he's awesome.
@Budgie Cat so you learned how to play indirectly from a man that you now know and play better than.. who just happens to be known as one of the best electric guitarists ever..? Shut up. It's easy to say anything you want about yourself and what you know, from behind an alias, in your safe place where only you know who you are. You work at Burger King.
First time I saw them, 2017 they played this, completely blown away, the song was nearly 10 mins and they gave us a “special ending”. Saw them again this past October, absolute insanity bro. They are incredible live
James Hetfield - vocals and rhythm guitar
Kirk Hammett - lead guitar (he does the solos)
Lars Ulrich - drums
Cliff Burton - bass
Cliff was on the first 3 Metallica albums, but then he died in a car accident in 1986 while the band was on tour in Europe. Metallica replaced Cliff with Jason Newsted in 1986. Jason was on the 4th-7th albums. Jason left the band in 2001. Metallica replaced Jason with Rob Trujillo in 2003, and has been with the band ever since, being part of their last 2 albums.
I saw Metallica for my first time ever in July 2017 at the Rose Bowl. It was the best concert I’ve ever been to. Metallica’s own channel has a large amount of videos from their current worldwide tour. I highly recommend checking out Spit Out the Bone - live London 2017. It is absolutely sick.
If you want to see Metallica performing at their absolute best, their absolute peak.....then you have to react to either Blackened or Battery live Seattle 1989. The Seattle 1989 show is well regarded as being their finest live performance ever.
Keep dishing out Metallica reactions. It’s just as fun for us metal veterans to watch as it is for you to first discover it.
Dodger_Blue311 he died in a bus crash not a car accident lol rip Cliff best bassist ever!
Firebirdz CAB dude seriously? Semantics. I know he died in a bus crash. Saying he died in a car crash is the same fucking thing. Especially to someone who just started listening to Metallica 3 days ago.
Dodger_Blue311 well if you knew it was a bus accident then say it lol clarify to those like your self that are now part of the Met family . rip Cliff.
Firebirdz CAB bus, car. Whatever. He died in an automobile accident. All the info I gave him was correct. And your need to correct me is ridiculous and unnecessary. Good day.
Dodger_Blue311 liberal
Concerts are unreal religious experience
Mossad Hunter best comment here! seen it and it's real! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼 /m\
TRUE!! Saw them under the pouring rain! Amazing
I enjoy seeing new ppl discover great music
This is my favorite. It grinds in your soul.
Best slow song from Metallica. In my top 5 all time.
So happy seeing this, the chills and tears I gir hearing this for the first time and even now blows me away. Seeing this makes me so happy like it was me listening to it for the first time.
There's a video for a Metallica song called 'For Whom The Bell Tolls' that is epic.
Peter yes! Preston, when you listen to this song look up for whom the bell tolls live Seattle 89'
I just subbed, because I love watching you react to Metallica. As an old metal head from the 80's I think it's awesome.
Even though I grew up w/this music that's how I felt when I listened the 1st time. ! That's WHY I luv watching u watch it brings the whole 1st time experience back. I believe for me
the Music will always bring back the experience so
Thank You!!!
You sir have earned a subscriber.
Gary Lennon Agreed, love the open minded listeners. Now I need to go watch more rap reactions from Preston to get my diversity on!
Me too. You've tapped into something HUGE. Every metalhead wants people to understand why we love the music. We just want to be understood. It's a lonely musical life...
#metoo
Their change ups are incredible!
Back in 2010, on March 3rd, they came to the Estadio Universitario in Monterrey, México, I was 17 and had this scolarship, I used the money to buy the tickets and take my dad and my brother with me. It was really a experience, I was in love with the band back then, and I still am, but then was more like a girly thing xD a fangirl thing xD and man, it was brutal, really brutal. Can't belive it's been almost 10 years. Time flies away, I guess.
En mi país los vi por primera vez el 2014 fue la primera vez que tocaron acá y solo puedo decir que fue la experiencia mas cool de mi vida :´D
Simon un regio comentando en un videazo saludos compatriota
Watch anything from seattle 89 show then you,ll know
do this
Battery from that show is iconic
battery and blackened live in 89 will change you
forgetful47 personally I'd go battery and whiplash but that's just me
Bill Bohmert-Thank you for suggesting that!Out of all the live shows they've played,it's no doubt their absolute best show EVER!
I've seen METALLICA live 4 times, and you HAVE to see it in person to REALLY understand their power. I guess the next best thing would be to watch "Creeping Death" live in Moscow.
Or live in Seattle '89 but you're 100% right.
I was lucky to see them open up for Ozzy Osbourne
Master of Puppets tour🤘
damn im insanely jealous
Ok I'm a little jealous 😉... Bet that was AWESOME 🤘🤘
Same here. Loud,fast and damn near the best concert ever. Freedom hall in Johnson City Tenn
My step dad saw them open up for him
A Metallica concert is some unreal, nothing to compare with....I have been to one in 92 with a crowd of 50000 people and was insane
I have been to many concerts in my life and Metallica's sound waves gave you the hardest punches to the chest. It was awesome.
Holy shit. For real. When the Metallica crew started testing Lars' drum set right before the show, the sound waves to the chest were overwhealming. Saw them in Argentina in 2017. My first big concert ever :D
I know this is an older vid, but the first time I saw Metalica was in 1984, at an old movie theater called the Palace here in Cleveland. None of us had heard of them, nobody had. I've been a fan ever since. BTW, that was when Mustaine was still in the band.
Fun fact--these guys were 21 when they recorded this..
Some of them not all
I went backstage to one of their concerts when i was younger. Amazing they brought me out it was so great.
It´s so great to see someone enjoying this music the same way I do. Really appreciate this
Transitioning from middle school to high school ... the summer. My first love and we broke up. My summer consisted of listening to this album. Probably not the best choice... I was definitely going through a spiritual awakening after that. I saw METALLICA 4 times... Just saw them again with their tour in oct of 2018... Took my son to go see them. We were 15 ft from the stage. This band has crossed generations from boomers to millennials.. ✌ They were my childhood. Gen X ... born in 1975. This was legit my childhood.
sanitarium (welcome home)- metalica
If bro hear this he really gonna lose it!
One of my absolute favorits!
Bro play this it’s amazing
You need this in your life
Kirk Hammett..Best .. legend..in my opinion
Kirk Hammet considered Rudolph Schenker of 'Scorpions' his idol when he was learning to play guitar, and even when he was already making albums he would go to Joe Satriani for lessons to improve his guitar playing.
SteelRaptor24 Satch is such guitar virtuoso
@@muhammadirsyazman8389 ikr I mean he taught kirk and Steve vai
April 20th 2018, this man's life was changed... awesome man
Fade To Black is one of my favorites. It actually has seven different guitar pieces in the composition. I don't usually go into my interpretation of what the song means because I don't want it to influence what it might mean to others, but I think you got it. It's not about death, it's about facing life. Once you face your fears, even death, there is nothing else in this world that can control you.
Its about saying goodbye to life its about giving up. Its more.clear than day.
I've been 3 times. They go balls out for 21/2 hours. It's the most exciting experience. They sound just like this live.
I saw them in San Francisco in 1988 Monsters of Rock tour. Van Halen was headlining their new album. Scorpions, Metallica (Who was finishing up their Master of Puppets tour) Dokken, and a New band Kingdom Come were there. Scorpions and Metallica stole the show.
64nova say same show in RFK stadium in Washington DC
Saw the same show in KC. Was fucking epic!
If You want to hear their Instrumental songs then i suggest you listen to "Orion" and "Call of Ktulu" by Metallica.
Saw Metallica 4 times and you'd fit right in!
I still have my Justice (88') concert shirt, never washed, and the blood on it is brown now.
"One" was the finale. 10 rows from the stage. When the later solo started, chairs started flying..
Despite the pint of blood lost, Justice was one of the best friggin concerts ever!
Found your channel today. Am glad ya like the music so far. Don't get me wrong.. there are plenty of bands/songs that will be suggested to you that you most likely will not enjoy at all. It's cool either way b/c not all bands will appeal to everyone. Metallica, imo, is one of those few bands that are a good gateway to Metal. The band 'Black Sabbath' are also a good gateway into Metal. Both bands are very talented musicians and songwriters with plenty of solid material that are liked across many genres.
That being said.. you might want to check out the song 'Heaven and Hell' by the band 'Black Sabbath'. It was before Metallica came to exist so will sound a bit older.. but the vocalist 'Ronnie James Dio' was a major influence on Metallica. In fact, Metallica did a 3-song medley tribute to Ronnie James Dio when he died back around 2010. The medley included songs from before 'Heaven and Hell' when Dio was with the band 'Rainbow' (which is also another band to check out.. specifically the song 'Stargazer')
In either case.. keep on checking out the music and do not be afraid to say if you do not like something.. just explain what ya didn't like and then we can adjust our suggestions to more closely match what you will most likely enjoy ;)
Peace
UOAbigail LeVey, I definitely agree! Ronnie James Dio brought Black Sabbath to a whole new level. In my opinion Ronnie was/is the best metal vocalist that ever lived! He is greatly missed!!
I concur and say Children of the Sea and Lady Evil off that album as well.
But are you getting their different messages per song? Suicide here, master of puppets cocaine etc...
i think so. its pretty ob
Honestly dude, in my opinion, music is art. And as such, the artist's interpretation and the viewer's interpretation may be different, but that's ok. As long as it's speaking to him then it doesn't matter if his meaning and the artist's meaning are the same.
Uh so they wrote songs with how they were feeling or going through or whatever at the time . Folk relate to it. We feel it and move on and don't dwell...
@@HandlesTheCyberman Well, true that, but i see where he's coming from since he says "Chop your breakfast on a mirror"
Metallica in concert are bad azz! Haven't seen them live since Cliff Burton was still with them. Shows you how old I am. This song got me through a hellish childhood.
Kirk Hammett - Lead Guitar Kirk is a very accomplished player with many classic and respected solos though he is criticized quite often for over use of wah wah. An effect produced by stepping on a 'wah pedal'. Also, he lacks some songwriting ability as he is not credited on much of their catalog, though he has written parts to some of the bands most recognizable songs. Some say he is overrated and some adore him. He is though, still a very well respected guitarist for contributing to Metallica's unique sound in a big way and for his timeless, classic guitar solos. A big influence on me and many others who picked up a guitar in the 80's and 90's and even present day.
James Hetfield - Rhythm Guitar/Vocals James is one of two remaining founding members of the band along with drummer Lars Ulrich. These two have been the main driving force of the Metallica machine for most of their existence. Together James and Lars wrote and recorded the song Hit The Lights which basically gave birth to a new genre called Thrash Metal that combined the raw sound and speed of punk music with British heavy metal. After not wanting to sing James became comfortable in the role and has become a very well respected front man. His voice is unmistakable and one of the best in metal. His rhythm guitar playing is almost legendary. He has an excellent down picking technique that was rarely if ever seen in rock/metal up to that point. His down picking would sound as though he was using a tremolo or speed picking technique which is up and down and easier to do creating a bit different sound. He has been one of or the main riff writer in the band the entirety of their existence and has obviously created some amazing music over all these years. LONG LIVE METALLICA! LONG LIVE METAL! METAL UP YOUR ASS AND ROCK ON!
I now bestow upon you, the title, Sir MetalHead 🤘🏼
I've had the pleasure of seeing them SIX times live in concert, and they are AWESOME!!!
Fight fire with fire....
Shivam Yadav ending is near🤘🏻
