on this day i found out i can play this as fast as James did in 1986. But there were still some mistakes here and there so there is still some work to perfect it.
Funner fact - There was a lion that jumped out of the Easter Bunny's helicopter right before the big helicopter crash that killed the Easter Bunny in 1979. When the lion woke up from the event, he was immediately struck by lightning and fell into a coma somewhere in the Sierra Nevadas. Three days later, the lion woke up in human form and was able to control electricity with his fingers. He walked out of the mountains, into San Fransisco. To blend in with society, he changed his name to James, one of the most common names in Roman English - and to not rouse too much suspicion, only used his power to control electricity for electric guitar purposes.
I was a huge Metallica fan in the 80s and was luck enough to catch them in 86 in Edinburgh. I had a big collection of bootlegs of live shows and listening to them from around 83 to 86 you just hear the speed ramping up over the years. I tended to listen to bootlegs rather than the studio albums at that point just because of the raw energy that was there. Part of the reason that I drifted away from them wasn't just the Black album but the way they sacrificed their live raw energy to try and sound more "professional", taking the edge off their tempo etc. In 86 Metallica were still raw thrash live and it was brilliant.
I agree!! Metallica was faster heavier in the 80’s. they became too polished and toned down that raw energy when the black album came out tone down! fuck that shit!! this was Metallica in their prime!!

I think .85 is the closest to the original BPM I can get on RUclips's custom speed modifier. Not 100% sure and I really can't be bothered checking, but FWIW there you go
Imagine being a Metallica fan at this time and they just dropped one of the heaviest albums ever; you go see them live and they play the songs faster, heavier, and more aggressive. Amazin
@adameves5970 they just needed a quick replacement bassist that's why he got hired. Honestly he's only better at backing vocals than actually playing bass. Cliff and Rob way ahead of him
@CHOUT86 but why is she saying it? Also, what's the point of a band that's so robotic that they sound exactly like the album? Why would I spend money on hearing the same thing? The point of rock is to break rules and be spontaneous and different. Metallica has that in spades.
That's because of how much faster than the album this specific live version is. This whole Toronto show is faster than the albums are. Battery and Damage Inc. are fucking INSANE!!!!
Not really, motorbreath is faster than any megadeth song and it aint even top 3 fastest tallica songs. Just becouse said he was faster on interviews doesnt make it true. Tempos dont lie. But people love to take slow tallica songs and say deth is faster
Well harelv i dont have a guitar soooooooo.... Also i think in guitar you need to have a very good wrist movement but in bass you need to have good finger movement and its also tiring
THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙏 I no longer have to decide whether to listen to a studio version that was ruined for me due to how much better it is live, or the low quality of a live performance from the 80s 😂
All this was possible because Jason newsted played the bass guitar lines with a pick which tighten up the rythm and gave James Hetfield playing rythm a push 😳
Yep that's a good joke but I know Lars used to improve himself in 1986 and later, after black album he started relax more and finally became a bad drummer. So that's not only cocaine
@@Metalic-qu4scLars was perfectly fine as a drummer until after the 1991-93 tour. He kept improving between kill em all (he was raw and still learning then) and AJFA (he was actually great and innovative at that point). In black album bob rock had him play more "mainstream". But after 1994 he just stopped being an actual practicing musician. In 1995 or 96 in an interview to the greek edition of Metal Hammer mag, he admitted that around that time he hadn't touched a drum kit in 6 months. Lars became a meme from Load onwards, during the first 5 classic albums he was mostly stellar.
@@vassilisxerikos3908 To be fair I probably wouldn't touch any instruments, drums or otherwise, for 6 months if I had to play every night on the black album tour either.
James can't even play this cleanly at that tempo. A lot gets left out. I just watched that Toronto show from '86 and he isn't picking the tune anything like this here. He's doing the easy version so he can sing it for one and so he can finish the tune without hitting muscle failure for two. Maybe you can play this in 2025 in your bedroom, but at full combat speed at a gig is a whole different matter.
Stockholm 86 was the fastest performance of creeping death ever performed, even though it doesn't seem like it, Stockholm was like 132 bpm and Toronto was 127 bpm
I'm going to add Jason's live backing vocals (Mexico City 1993) to this
It's done!!! ruclips.net/video/tRY33fvQsV8/видео.html

james needed a bathroom break but still had 1 more song to play 😭
The video goes even faster than the song here
My favorite ever live show of theirs. Wish theyd never lost that speed and attitude they had in the puppets days.
Bro, if they hadn't, James, Kirk, and Lars would probably be dead
@@atilarufoThat, and it gets boring really quickly when everything is just speed, speed, speed.
@@atilarufoLars for sure haha

@@JelloFluoride Too bad for them. 🤣
This sounds like how creeping death sounded the first time I listened to it
0:23 that guitar lift is so iconic
Dude I used to mimic that in my room with my cheap Jackson Kelly JS thinking I was just as good as Hetfield 😂😭
that was awesome. My personal favorite concert of theirs.
Yeah, that footage is insane, raw brutal power, even Slayer can't touch this.
Rush's Neil Pert has perfect timing when they play live. I listen to their albums while I watch them live.
So
Peart was phenomenal. Metallica in their peak was phenomenal. two entirely separate genres and bands though, pointless to compare the two.
Lol what
@CHOUT86 but why is she saying it?
Also, what's the point of a band that's so robotic that they sound exactly like the album? Why would I spend money on hearing the same thing? The point of rock is to break rules and be spontaneous and different. Metallica has that in spades.
@@MrMirack
"Why is she saying it"
It's the internet, she can share what she thinks.
that's fucking cool
super but the video is still faster...Kirk starts playing solo early 2:16
They aren’t playing to a click so it’s impossible to sync perfectly.
That's because of how much faster than the album this specific live version is. This whole Toronto show is faster than the albums are. Battery and Damage Inc. are fucking INSANE!!!!
@@kevinscarborough9982yet not the fastest
that’s because one is a studio song and one is a live song

Grief + Alcohol is quite the boost
This was something i didnt know i needed until know, fuck yeah
I just used this for playing along, great forearm pump ( i cant feel anything)
As a guitarist, listening to this makes my wrist hurt
I can barely keep up even when doing air guitar, what the hell man
They played one even faster the night before Burton's death. Stockholm '86, it was about 5-6bpm faster than Toronto that night.

much better than studio tempo...

Holy shit!!!! LIGHTNING !!!
I mean, listening to a new sounding with a different tempo is such a cool experiment, but it definetly feels worse.
0.85 sounds like the original with a little bit of weird sounds
2:46 is my favorite part of the solo
This is 21% faster than original. Try 0.79
This is the coolest video on youtube. Period.
Since discovering this, I can never go back and listen to the original again
All this was possible because Jason newsted played the bass guitar lines with a pick which tighten up the rythm and gave James Hetfield playing rythm a push 😳
Now all that someone needs to do is recreate the First Four with Toronto tempo and Bob Rock studio quality for perfection.
Never headbanged this hard listening to this. Still fucking good song to headbang to
this is sick!
And theyre even still playing faster than this. Kirk finishes the solo in thr footage before the audio does.
epic tempo
Cocaine is a hell of a drug
Waaay better. This is what hunger sounds like. This is what trying to win over arenas sounds like. This is what taking over the world sounds like.
Yeaaa boii
Audacity's tempo/pitch tools really are great. If you have a high quality source the artifacts are hardly noticeable. Better than some paid DAWs.
how much jagger do i have to drink to achieve mr hetfield's speed?
Never in a thousand years would someone be able to downpick an entire song at this tempo besides James Hetfield
It sounds really more interesting!
I always call it "Creeping Death on cocaine" ❤
Amazing
God damn i played it and my hand only hurts a little!!! Progress!
Lars had too much cocaine before the show.
Yep that's a good joke but I know Lars used to improve himself in 1986 and later, after black album he started relax more and finally became a bad drummer. So that's not only cocaine

I can't go back to the studio version tempo anymore 😢
hell yessss
thank you
Jesus the down picking speed though
TORONTO 🔥🔥
Wild!
Playing like the tour bus is double parked.
The way it was meant to be
For me, I think creeping death sounds better when played fast than how it sounds in ride the lightning
this lowkey slaps almost more than the original
how fast this song if we put % ?
original is 21% slower
I recommend watching this at 2.00x speed
Metalica es lo más 👍
i just almost died playing this
That was a good form to recive jason
Pura velocidad del trash metal, qué sólo Metallica lo podía hacer
Solo Metallica? Te recuerdo que en el '86 salió Reign in Blood, Pleasure to Kill y Darkness Descends, albumes con mucha velocidad.
Holy shit!! 🤟😎🤟
Attack song 🔥💪🤟🇮🇩
Aveces me pregunto ¿como rayos se ingeniaron para crear tal obra maestra como los riffs?

what bpm is this?
266 i think or 261
0:23 when james headbang starts the song
Metallica should go back in the studio and remake this song and many others with a faster tempo. I would purchase.
They cannot -- because of LAzy aRSe. But I still can appreciate his creativity in the past.
