  • Hi all!
    And a very happy 2018 to you! I figured start the week with a warmup for Friday. Legitimately, Fade to Black is every 1st year metal guitar player's goal (at least it was mine). Ran a little behind for Metallica Monday but hopefully this'll do :)
    See ya Friday

    Probably the best solo cover of this song on the internet, the solo is A) flawless and B) has added touches, absolute masterpiece of a cover! So many people mess up the pace of it, and then they also mess up the bends, but both are done perfectly here, well done my dude! WELL DONE!!

      @Gael Alvarez-Ruiz Yes, counting only ride, master, justice, and black, he only wrote like 49 solos for the most successful/influential metal band of all time. Improvising his solo at the end of fade to black at every live concert is so pathetic. What a loser. How many solos did you write and play live? Oh wait, who's the loser?

    • @Mrcloc

    Reminds me, Stone382 did some good Metallica covers a few years back, like 25+ songs, worth checking out for anyone that digs a good cover.

    After needing out on this and playing with playback speeds, this isn't how Kirk plays it. The fast part was originally alternate picked with two pull offs (19 to 14 etc). However, sweeped with pull offs as demonstrated here, does sound smoother to my ears. Beautiful playing.

    "Fade to Black" is, in my opinion, Metallica's greatest song.
    Also, "Ride the Lightning" is their best album. Every song on it is either good or great.
