I’d suggest, go right to the very beginning. First album Kill em All. First song, Hit the Lights. Pure adrenaline. Also Four Horsemen and Seek and Destroy from the same album. But start with Hit the Lights. It’s what the band wanted, and for good reason.
My favorite part of this song was the part which goes 'scream from my soul fate mystified hell forever more!" ...I always look forward to that part the most
This song is full of all their youthful ambitions in their playing. It has that classic galloping rhythm throughout and you feel the energy right from the opening riff.
Another excellent reaction to a classic track, which I'm now getting used to from you on a regular basis! Well done as always! I'm loving your thoughtful reactions! :)
@@8tonystark8 I just found it funny he made that comment on a song Kirk wrote the riff to. And it may be similar but if people weren’t influenced by other peoples music then new music couldn’t be made. Just saying.
@@Huddle_House56 Not saying that's a bad thing. On the contrary! Kai is one of my 3 idols. James, Kai and Rolf Kasparek of Running Wild. 3 favourite bands and reason why I play guitar.
I absolutely love to see how excited you are to show her music that was and is so important to you. Thanks so much for sharing that. Love this channel for many reasons. One of which is just how genuine you both are!
Good call, Nick! This does seem to be one of those old great songs that even Metallica neglects but I’ve always loved it. I don’t listen to the Ride The Lightning album much these days but when I do I have to make sure I listen to this one. The Call of Ktulu is another great song from this album that doesn’t seem to get a lot of attention. I really like all of Metallica’s instrumental tracks. Orion, especially. Any way, loved this reaction video as always. Appreciate your channel so much. 🤘🏼
Hey, following your favorite riff is another which you will find on an old Exodus song. Yes, it was played in Kirk's time with the band. Have a blessed day. 🙏🏽
Actually they already played that song live a few times, is in the Mexico City DVD Orgullo, Pasión y Gloria, you can watch that performance in RUclips. 😎
wHEN I got this cassette back in late 84/earl;y 85 I wore it out. Many days, weekends, months & months , till Master of Puppets came out .......then I had 2 Badass killer albums to play all the time.
Trapped Under Ice is a banger. Know it well. Trust me when I say the real hidden gem is Metallica’s tribute to Merciful Fate off of their Garage Inc. album. It’s absolutely killer!! Will never get played but that’s my 2 cents.
Not just yours most Metallica fans don’t even know it exists only the hardcore dubbed bootleg fans do from day one they wear their shirts and have no idea wtf it even means
First time I ever heard Metallica was in a music store in 1986 while browsing the vinyl section which was one of my favorite past times then,trust me you young people of this generation have no idea what you missed out on,there was no social media or Internet then but still had lots to do,but anyway The Thing That Should Not Be was playing on the stereo so I walked up to the counter to see what band it was and thought..Metallica? I hadn't even heard of them before that,So I bought Master Of Puppets on cassette,that was about two weeks before Cliffs death.
Awesome journey into Metallica!! You should react to some of Metallica's blues/hard rock songs from the 1990s. Until It Sleeps; King Nothing; The House Jack Built; Hero of The Day; Thorn Within; Wasting My Hate; Where The Wild Things Are; Low Man's Lyrics; Unforgiven II; Carpe Diem Baby; Devils Dance; Fixxxer. The Load & Reload albums are definitely underrated. Great sample of their musical versatility outside of heavy metal/thrash!
Check out the band Mastodon. I recommend their song Steambreather, it is not too heavy and not too progressive. It is good for a start. The band is absolutely phenomenal. Love their music.
Great choice... one of my favorites on this album. Fight fire with fire is great as well, I don't think it gets reacted to very much...I remember seeing them on this tour, and they opened with it, which was way cool.
Please React to Mercyfull Fate, its a Danish band, with King Diamond, one of the most impressive vocalists of all time. Also they influence Metallica, which has a huge respect for Mercyfull Fate and King Diamond Check out Mercyfull Fate - Melissa
It would be interesting for you to do a video comparing The Four Horsemen by Metallica and Mechanix by Megadeth. Same basic song... But very different...
🤘🏼Most Excellent Reaction🤘🏼 - as usual, so good hanging out listening 🎧 to tunes 🎶 with y’all. Not sure if you’ve heard of Tuvan / Mongolian throat singing, but there’s an awesome group called The Hu Band that blends traditional folk instruments, throat singing and metal. Check out their version of Sad But True, sung IN their native language: ruclips.net/video/QpxA_ZxGX_M/видео.html
Creo que Kill 'em all como todo primer disco es la conjunción de las ideas de todos los integrantes y ex integrantes de metallica hasta el momento de su grabación. Ride the lightning es un disco en parte muy influenciado por Mustaine con su estilo inconfundible y comienza la calidad de composición de Cliff Burton aportando armonizaciones, cultura y teoría musical. Master of Puppets es el resultado de los cuatro integrantes de acuerdo en una idea. El objetivo era llegar a ser una banda grande por medio de imnovacion y calidad musical. En master todo cierra y es un discazo en todo sentido. Es un parametro con el que se mide todo lo anterior y lo que vino después. And Justice es un disco de transición, es como un catalogo de Riffs + el último intento de mejora de Lars como baterista retomando clases para alcanzar un buen nivel... Creo que es un disco vacio y para mal de males tuvo la peor masterización posible. Lo que continua es como si fuera otra banda, no se si fue el salto de edad, económica o de objetivos.
Das sind die Rohdiamanten, aus den später Edelsteine wurden ... leider nicht für immer, irgendwo sind sie falsch abgebogen und spätestens mit St. Anger haben sie ihr Denkmal umgestossen. Alles bis zum Black Album war eine tolle Entwicklung ... danach noch Garage Inc., teilweise fantastische Cover, oder wers mag S&M ...
Que aburrido y reaccionar a cosas tan conocidas, comercialmente infalibles, lo atractivo de las reacciones es lo espontaneo , la sorpresa , el aporte para uno es escuchar y ver que piensa una persona que nunca vio o escucho la banda, pero reaccionar a metallica , a genesis, aburridisimo , muy forzado, muy falso, mas que de costumbre
jajaja qué chistoso, como siempre hay quien se queja, sin importar lo que uno haga. Dos comentarios abajo del tuyo alguien nos dijo que NO le gustaba que reaccionamos constantemente a canciones NO tan conocidas, que prefiere las más comerciales.

When I 1st heard Metallica, it was on a aforementioned LA FM Radio station that had a all Metal show hosted by Jim Ladd, called "The Metal Shop" on KMET 94.7 (which turned into a New Age station, then "Smooth Jazz", whateverthatmeans, and now its an R&B station). It was tracks off of "Kill 'em All", I liked it, but it was raw and being a Progger before a Metalhead, I guess I wanted it a little more polished. Then "Ride the Lightning" came out. The 1st track I heard from it was the opener, the acoustic guitar intro was super intriguing . . . . then all the sudden, the BRUTALITY of "Fight Fire with Fire". Hetfield's staccato vocals was something I never heard before, and the guitar riffage and the harmony/melodious solo made a huge impact on me. The "Acoustic intro" would be a thing with many Thrash bands, which I enjoyed immensely. I became a huge Metallica fan (next on the Metal list was Iron Maiden, Savatage, Loudness, Accept, and Queensryche's debut Ep, which would lead me to the future of Prog Metal). This is another excellent Thrash track that I also got into. And then the fan-faves like; For Whom the Bell Tolls, Fade to Black and Creeping Death. This is the album that showed me that Metallica had "musicianship" behind this aggressive newer subgenre of Metal, and I searched for more of this back in the 80's, and the more obscure bands of that time (and in the early 90's), some who were also being inspired/influenced by Progressive Rock (which led me to "move-on" to those _more_ underground bands, before the "Black" album). Note that the late-great Cliff Burton on Bass, his 2 fave bassists were Geddy Lee and Steve Harris :). Funny too, back in those days, I can remember people (even Metalheads) complaining that Hetfield's voice was "Too Heavy/Too Rough" for them :D. How times have changed. And that Metallica basically put Metal on the map for the average radio listener. Nick, hopefully this gets you and "Lex" into the mood for some heavier modern Metal from Meshuggah, and the track "Future Breed Machine", since we are both Allan Holdsworth fans, as well as their lead-guitarist Fredrik Thordendal. This track will show you why its a great example of merging a bit of Fusion with more extreme Metal that is progressive (and the band "Cynic", another for a future reaction). Just a warning; its HEAVY/AGGRESSIVE, and headbanging to _their_ brand of 4/4 may snap your head-off :P. Note as well; the drummer Tomas Haake is a big fan of Vinnie Colaiuta and Gary Husband (as said on the credits, "Sources of Inspiration" on the album DEI). Like you said to Lex, Nick . . . these heavier musics may not be searched out by Proggers, Jazzers and Rockers, but I have seen it happen many a time, showing another side of heavier music to those that wish to be enlightened, challenged, or just a curiosity to something new, and maybe out of their comfort zone. There are reactors, musicians and collectors of music that have various channels talking about "Why" these bands awakened them to a side of Metal they didn't know about, and destroying the stereotypes of what they thought Metal was (even though its supposed to be "scary" and piss people off :p). Metal definitely has helped deal with a lot in my life, just as much as Progressive Rock, Classical and Jazz/Fusion. All have helped in various situations in my life, and to fight forward to my goals and happiness. It was always a positive in my life. - Thanks guys for the music, and the "discussion" \m/.

I’d suggest, go right to the very beginning. First album Kill em All.
First song, Hit the Lights. Pure adrenaline.
Also Four Horsemen and Seek and Destroy from the same album.
But start with Hit the Lights. It’s what the band wanted, and for good reason.
Garage days re revisited
He's taking you on the scenic route. The spots loved by locals not tourists
My favorite part of this song was the part which goes 'scream from my soul fate mystified hell forever more!" ...I always look forward to that part the most
This song is full of all their youthful ambitions in their playing. It has that classic galloping rhythm throughout and you feel the energy right from the opening riff.
'I'm dying to live' is a great line.
This is the underappreciated banger from Ride The Lightning.
All the songs are perfect as can Be
Metallica were on fire during the Ride the Lightning/ Master of Puppets era. Not a bad song on either album.
James was literally on fire in Montreal '92
That bridge riff at about 3:45 is one of my favorite Metallica riffs to play.
Another excellent reaction to a classic track, which I'm now getting used to from you on a regular basis! Well done as always! I'm loving your thoughtful reactions! :)
The influence of Dave Mustaine was still very strong on RtL...
Almost positive Kirk wrote the main riff on this one.
1. Who cares?
2. Yeah, that's Kirk's riff
3. It's the same riff as Ride The Sky from Kai Hansen's Helloween EP - Walls Of Jericho
@@8tonystark8 I just found it funny he made that comment on a song Kirk wrote the riff to. And it may be similar but if people weren’t influenced by other peoples music then new music couldn’t be made. Just saying.
@@Huddle_House56 Not saying that's a bad thing. On the contrary! Kai is one of my 3 idols. James, Kai and Rolf Kasparek of Running Wild.
3 favourite bands and reason why I play guitar.
I absolutely love to see how excited you are to show her music that was and is so important to you. Thanks so much for sharing that. Love this channel for many reasons. One of which is just how genuine you both are!
Hey Nick N Lex. Good choice. Nice deep cut for sure. Great reaction. Keep up the good work.
orion is my favorite talica song.
Couldn't agree anymore it just sends me I my own world amazing
When it comes to Metallica doesn't matter what song it is and trapped under ice works just fine !
just took me back to the 80s!!!! I MISS my HAIR!!!!!
This is my favorite song on Ride the Lightning
I love that your reacting to the underrated stuff man! Keep the thrash metal reactions coming!
Good call, Nick! This does seem to be one of those old great songs that even Metallica neglects but I’ve always loved it. I don’t listen to the Ride The Lightning album much these days but when I do I have to make sure I listen to this one.

this is one of my favorite Metallica songs. great job, guys!
SALUDOS AMIGOS DESDE ARGENTINA

Great reaction. Please react to the band Death Without Judgement please. And the last track off this album The Call Of Ktulu
Love this song!! Another great deeper cut from RTL is ‘Escape’.
Agree friend
You guys should check out Race With the Devil on a Spanish Highway live by Al Di Meola.
Great reaction! Hey Nick.. i love the riff as well. Lol. Second Metallica song I learned on guitar was this one.
Chicos. Gracias. Dejo Sugerencia: Mark Knopfler. Going home. La version de A night in London. Obra maestra. Gracias 😊😊

Fade to Black and the title track are both awesome
James was 21 when he recorded this song !!
This is when Metallica was great, they fade it out after the justice album but this is when they were the king.
They’ve played this live a lot of times for sure
Y'all RULE!
Check out the band Mastodon. I recommend their song Steambreather, it is not too heavy and not too progressive. It is good for a start. The band is absolutely phenomenal. Love their music.

Gd reaction friends. Perfect album. I wish I had ur Headphones 🎧🎧 they look awesome amazing
Time for ELP "Take a Pebble", back to the 70s.
Oh yeah !!!! I said right off the bat when I saw the reaction promo ------ This is gonna be good !!!!
Please React to Mercyfull Fate, its a Danish band, with King Diamond, one of the most impressive vocalists of all time. Also they influence Metallica, which has a huge respect for Mercyfull Fate and King Diamond
Check out Mercyfull Fate - Melissa
Check out some Volbeat some time if you’re not familiar, Wild Rovers of Hell or Sad Mans Tongue is a good place to start 🔥🎧😎
Would love to hear you react to my favorite Metallica song - Seek & Destroy!
It would be interesting for you to do a video comparing The Four Horsemen by Metallica and Mechanix by Megadeth. Same basic song... But very different...
Just for fun and the riffery you guys should do The Conjuring by Megadeth
This one's cool, but I love Escape a bit more

It’s amazing that a bunch of half drunk 22-23 year olds put out a masterpiece album like this.
S - tupendous
R - adical
V - isionary
Porfavor, encadenado al anima de invisible, tienen que mostrar al mundo eso, no se lo pueden perder

Chicos, les recomiendo mejores micrófonos, a él no le oigo nada, en relación a la música, saludos y sigan así, mejorando.
The amazing thing about this album is...this is possibly the worst song on the album....and it STILL rips 🤘😂
Escape has to be the worst one
RUclips shadow banning how rude
Cliff Burton era is best era furshur
The early years when Cliff was alive and the influence of Mustaine was still present are beyond anything else Metallica ever released...
Ugh...heavy metal.
Give her some meat every now and then sides are great but.......

Trapped under ice would be my top 5 favorite metallica and for some strange reason its never played like the others
