James: Writes the riff Lars: Sets up song structure Kirk: Only goes into the studio when he needs to do a solo with 3 wa pedals Rob: Kinda just sits there
7:08 remember when James tried to teach Kirk that some kind of monster riff and Kirk couldn´t do it? That´s because you have to talk to him in wah language
7:25 I love it when 2 non guitar players try to explain what they want you to play while moving their fingers in odd, other-worldly motions that are impossible and they expect you to play what they're playing in the air.
But that made that solo better...? I mean, their expressions and fingers were weird, but they had a great idea and had to deliver that somehow to Kirk.
Lars should definitely consider a side gig as an arranger. As a musician myself, I'd love to be around someone with even half of his vision and passion for music
Chesty McStudmuffin only thing that sucked about st. Anger were the snare and the production. Sure it wasnt very metallica sounding but good nonetheless
This kinda easter egg,as this song has really notable Iron maiden influences,and the name of this making stands for New Wave Of British Heavy Metal At The Moment,so thats a nice reference
Atlas, Rise is the best song from hardwired to self destruct for real. In my opinion the most effort is put into this song. Greetings from Croatia and hope you come again!
4:57 damn that riff sounds so good live in studio. i rewatched it more than 30 times in one take. haha and I did pretty much the same thing as Rob while he was entering the room - started fucking headbanging!!!
Helm of the Anti-lemon I don’t think so, he for the most part does, but watching this I only see Kirk when solo time comes. I feel that Lars and James are pretty obligated to have opinions on his solo.
This is so much good for my mental health thanks to share with Us guys and love you so much l am not a musician but this give me a good boost for my days and hope you share more of your studio work. Thank you
I like how Lars is very involved on all instruments. He has great ideas. He can foresee some riffs and solos. His job is to somehow portray them to his band mates. Blows my mind.
Jaymz Hetfield and I love the way they trust each other's ideas and input. I can't imagine the day when one isn't around any longer, James or Lars will probably go into a deep depression.
Philip McMullin on the record I heard it but thought it was an autotune or harmonizer effect. This just confirmed it was 2 voice dubbed in real time. Fukin awesome!
The way I see Metallica. Lars is the oldest brother and James is the middle child who fights with Lars all the time , and Kirk is the youngest who everyone loves and Robert is Kirks friend from school who comes over everyday .
Lars is a solid drummer, he may not be considered one of the best by alot of people, but i will give it to him, he is a beast on arrangement. He hears it, he thinks it and then bam he already has it, doesnt take long for him. He knows what he wants and how it should sound. That is not easy, he truly has an ear for music. i have loved them since i remember hearing master of the puppets when i was 4, sounds odd, but i remember.
Yep I see why the demo was called NWOBHM. I can hear Iron Maiden influences in the song, mainly that tiny bridge between the second chorus and that main riff that leads into the solo (my 2nd favorite riff off the album btw, right behind the breakdown in Am I Savage?). Very Hallowed Be Thy Name-ish (also my favorite Iron Maiden song like many of you).
My favourite song on the album! It's also great and fun to see the process of making the song. Also Lars looks like two different people clean shaven, and with a beard and glasses, haha.
I love watching this process in the studio. And the levity is incredibly subtle but awesome. "We have this thing called a fader.." I nearly split a side.
you guys freaking rock you just keep making this music and all of us will keep listening to it and rocking on to it rock on Metallica we love you I am a die-hard Metallica freak and I'm proud of it what's so is my husband
is it me or does anyone else wish they can get behind the scenes stuff on how songs were created from ride the lightning, mop, justice. i doubt that there were any recording sessions happening during that time, but man imagine seeing how they structured master of puppets for example, or creeping death! the closest we got were riff tapes, which is also kinda cool
My running theory has always been that the biggest James fan on the planet is Lars. He knows how to suggest, direct, and play with him, a bond that's been there since he hired him years ago. These behind the scenes videos highlight that
Zoltán Kovács you never sat down with a V nor an Explorer, right? Thats just not how you look like sitting with an Explorer. Oh and the lower fin is nowhere to be seen -> V.
Lars could say something like "Play the yatta cha cha bama riff" and James would know exactly what he meant lol, that's what happens when you've been writing together for over 30 years.
HFS!!! Watching these guys create hits out of thin air!!!! And remembering them the very first time they play them! Better than watching the concerts themselves!
It saddens me that the band that I know and love is falling apart I watch this video and the guys are having fun. Guys if you read this Jason is the key to your problems.
![[Full Movie] Metallica - making of Hardwired... To Self Destruct](/img/1.gif)
people always make fun of lars for his drumming, but the guy is a wizard with song structure and organization.
december 26 boys … we suck at playing but we’re good producers lol
This comment is in every Metallica studio session
@@cobaingrohlnovo fr
he's an excellent drummer,people writing bullshit
Nah hes trash at writing interesting drum parts, but his reactive drumming is fine.
James: Writes the riff
Lars: Sets up song structure
Kirk: Only goes into the studio when he needs to do a solo with 3 wa pedals
Rob: Kinda just sits there
Best comment for today !! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Haha I was thinking the same. The whole band has to write the Solo and make him play it 😂
Bass riffs and tone were absolutely awesome for this album. Also many songs have a clearly Rob's influence.
...and Rob is the most talented member of the band by far.
Matthew Vu 👎
5:51
"Hey Kirk!"
Kirk: "Hey what"
HEY WAH
He’s one sassy black lady
Qklahoma 😂
So aggressive
Kirk's humour it´s one of the best things of Tallica
7:08 remember when James tried to teach Kirk that some kind of monster riff and Kirk couldn´t do it? That´s because you have to talk to him in wah language
El Padrino awesome ahahahahahahahaha
Guess that's Robert's job now "C then to (BAM) EEEEEEEEEE" that part cracked me up, phonics for "Guitar Gods" lol
LOL
Yep Kirk is the only one who ever understood the teacher in the Charlie. Brown cartoons
I always support Hammett, but this... is a beauty...
When the entire lyric section was “YEAH” I cried
That would work
load/reload demos
2:30 Lars be deleting Kirk's riff ideas
Lars stole his phone😂
@@phobos1254😂😂😂😂
3:41 i actually liked that, badass riff.
It's the riff that plays at the en of the chorus
Sounded like hallowed be thy name at the start
Sounds very Maidenish
Its because it's darkness, they should start that type of riffs instead of those ones
Ironmadenish
4:59 Rob enters and immediately starts headbaging lol
It’s a sick ass riff
He head banged and did his air bass guitar stance out of frame..
Just like in the music video
Is there any other reaction to such a heavy riff?
Black Sabbath: N.I.B.
System Of A Down: Oh yeah? B.Y.O.B
Metallica: YEAAAHH!!!!!
N.W.O.B.H.M A.T.M.
Bring your own boom
New wave of british heavy metal at the moment
Don't know about the blaxk sabath one
Not even Black Sabbath knows what N.I.B means, no joke.
@@sbg019 People like pretending it means "Nativity In Black". But really it was the nickname for Geezer's facial hair.
SOAD is probably A.T.W.A no one really knows what does that mean
@@Itay. It means: Air, Trees, Water and Animals.
2:15 I love seeing lars be so happy and excited to play. So wholesome
The riff james is playing could definitely be a kill em all riff
1:16 lars's first words
Lmfao
poom pata poom pata pom pom
@@VANTAND pon pon pa ta pon pa ta pa ta pa ta pon
So this is how the writing process of a legend is:
"Bomm bada boom bada boom"
Lol you have to love Lars
@@DamageJackyl that's how us musicians talk when we don't know theory. Just make noises that vaguely resemble the part
@Ovais Malik as a drummer that very true when i forgot the notes hahaa
@@tylercady3985 i surely think most musicians do that instead of making themselves and everyone confused saying all that theory stuff
@@tylercady3985 I think everybody does that, even people like Adam Neely do that
Drummer talk when reading music.
7:11 lars talking in kirks language
Lmfao 🤣
7:25 I love it when 2 non guitar players try to explain what they want you to play while moving their fingers in odd, other-worldly motions that are impossible and they expect you to play what they're playing in the air.
But that made that solo better...?
I mean, their expressions and fingers were weird, but they had a great idea and had to deliver that somehow to Kirk.
They did it good though…..
Lars should definitely consider a side gig as an arranger. As a musician myself, I'd love to be around someone with even half of his vision and passion for music
He literally arranges for the most successful band in the world lol
@@louclarkson6098 That’s why he said that…
With the long hair in a ponytail, the beard and glasses... Lars almost looks like an old chemistryteacher of mine...
He should just buzz it all off.
Stylist: Well, would you like a mullet or would you rather be bald?
Lars: *I want both*
He looks like a few professors I had in my higher level math courses at university.
@@RockandrollNegro that is what is known as a skullet
At 2:38 his hair looks like Beetlejuice and I mean that as a compliment.
The album is nothing without Lars. Even with the solos :D Amazing
Chesty McStudmuffin only thing that sucked about st. Anger were the snare and the production. Sure it wasnt very metallica sounding but good nonetheless
You forgot the horrible songwriting
???????? Lars sucks. He can't write drum parts anymore.
@Chesty McStudmuffin st. Anger ruined lars
Fiddlesticks WT Lyrically, St. Anger is amazing IMO.
This kinda easter egg,as this song has really notable Iron maiden influences,and the name of this making stands for New Wave Of British Heavy Metal At The Moment,so thats a nice reference
Zitra .com honestly I got more Painkiller era Judas Preist vibes from the main riff of Atlas Rise
KiLl3R Mem3StAR Yeah ur right but that harmony part after the solo I think has reaally Iron Maiden-y vibes,in my opinion
Now I understand where the song came from... For me it sounds more like judas!
Atlas, Rise is the best song from hardwired to self destruct for real. In my opinion the most effort is put into this song. Greetings from Croatia and hope you come again!
I love everything about the song except for the shit drums in the chorus.
10:59 DAMN, James!!
matt k WHY COULDNT THAT BE IN THE SONG?????
Zydeus Taleus It is in the song, he’s harmonizing on that last «Rise» note
Lars Aslaksen i wish the harmony was in the songggg
@@zydeustaleus8679 it is
That sounds fucking awesome
6:24 Lars is like a professor at the University
10:40 Lars again this time he is like a high school student
He genuinely looks like 65 in the first timestamp and 30 in the second
Its because of the white beard and without the hat,his receding hairline is visible which makes him look even older
4:57 damn that riff sounds so good live in studio. i rewatched it more than 30 times in one take. haha and I did pretty much the same thing as Rob while he was entering the room - started fucking headbanging!!!
3:40 this is how it supposed to sound like omfg
It's the riff that plays at the end
of the chorus
6:18 when you singing your riffs
4:51 "On the drums i know what i'm doing"
-Lars ulrich (2016)
6:28 Lars teaching how to play guitar solos
Lars teaching master of wah's how to wah
Talking wah language
How to communicate with Kirk when he's doing a solo
damn, he is annoying. Let Kirk do his thing.
Helm of the Anti-lemon I don’t think so, he for the most part does, but watching this I only see Kirk when solo time comes. I feel that Lars and James are pretty obligated to have opinions on his solo.
didnt notice they hadnt uploaded this before
EPHEMERAL same
EPHEMERAL I always thought the music video was already a making of video cause it showed them playing it in the studio

5:44 the legendary EET FUK guitar on the background :')
Pause at 4:30
James and the recording engineer are trying to convince Lars to start wearing Hawaiian tropical shirts👕 and Lars is not having it!
Very impressive, but can you play Spit Out The Bone live?
leobassosa I get the reference :v
Nice try.
hehehehehe I get it
lol Davie. Nice.
Wrong channel!!
Is that the lady justice head from their seattle '89 concert at james' upper left at 0:05?
Indeed
Dan Kristian Roy yup. Delores.
It’s from the one they used in the movie. Doris
No was from entire justice tour. Not just the one show
yep. the damaged justice tour they would just explode her at the end of the show
I like how Lars is very involved on all instruments. He has great ideas. He can foresee some riffs and solos. His job is to somehow portray them to his band mates. Blows my mind.
Watching these really gives appreciation to how good Lars is at song structure and arrangements. Guy is a wiz in the studio.
3:42 is such a great riff
Never realized how genius Lars is when it comes to song construction. He and James are the perfect combination.
James and Lars so fucking GENIUS
Jaymz Hetfield and I love the way they trust each other's ideas and input. I can't imagine the day when one isn't around any longer, James or Lars will probably go into a deep depression.
6:22 When I show a meme to my dad
Hahahahahh
I love that James is screaming and singing all metalhead with glasses at the tip of his nose.
The librarian metalhead?
Love the recording process!
6:22, is that Santa Claus? Nope, just Lars.
Honestly, to me Lars looks even older than he is while having beard.
Father Time 😆
4:06 would've loved to hear that on the album
Kinda sounds alot like Master Of Puppets to me. But wish to hear it as well. Cool sounding.
New wave of British heavy metal! Bought that cd with Lars signature at a pop up store. Makes sense now
New Wave of British Heavy Metal at the Moment
Ass to Mouth
FINALLY! I'm so happy that this was posted, I've watched all the other ones so many times and now I can finally binge them all :)
Hetfield's harmony at the end...........Whoever says Hetfield doesnt have it anymore needs to die!
Philip McMullin on the record I heard it but thought it was an autotune or harmonizer effect. This just confirmed it was 2 voice dubbed in real time. Fukin awesome!
For real, that vocal harmony got my soul man
Philip McMullin I’ve never heard anyone say that
That escalated quickly

Looooool being in Poland atm as a finnish person I relate to this in a fucking spiritual level, the best comment so far
9 months later, but still just as awesome!
The way I see Metallica. Lars is the oldest brother and James is the middle child who fights with Lars all the time , and Kirk is the youngest who everyone loves and Robert is Kirks friend from school who comes over everyday .
This was their best release in a long time. I wish they could hammer out another album. Good stuff
I didn't even realise this video was missing! I absolutely loved all the "making of" vids so this is a nice surprise!
7:06 that old man was picked up from the streets
So glad these are still coming out.
Lars is a solid drummer, he may not be considered one of the best by alot of people, but i will give it to him, he is a beast on arrangement.

There is no chill A.K.A. The wave that brought us Iron
Maiden, Judas Priest, Saxon etc.
SLAYEER!!!!!!! Yeah I know
11:00 DAMN. THAT WAS AWESOME.
I like this Metallica guy.
I think he's going places.
This is realy interesting to see the process of writing and recording a song. Thanks guys!
Its great to watch how our idols create their music,which becomes something unique...Metallica is my life!
Such an amazing producer. Very supportive.
My favourite song on the album! It's also great and fun to see the process of making the song.
Also Lars looks like two different people clean shaven, and with a beard and glasses, haha.
The original title: New Wave Of British Heavy Metal Automatic Teller Machine
Really cool seeing them write collaboratively rather than simply a songwriter at home on their computer.
I love these bts shots of them making albums. Man James’ singing is tight as ever
"I didn't have the wah pedal on"
That's a first.
i love watching these.... its so awesome seeing everything come together... and Lars is amazing at structuring and saying what he hears...
7:42
I love the way Lars cheers for Kirk Hammett
Atlas rise is one of my most favorite songs
I love Metallica!
Metallica is my old love, for now 37 years
I love watching this process in the studio. And the levity is incredibly subtle but awesome. "We have this thing called a fader.." I nearly split a side.
2:15 lars getting tricky :o

Atlas Rise is one of my favorite tracks off the record it feels like old school Metallica just that rawess that kick ass
you guys freaking rock you just keep making this music and all of us will keep listening to it and rocking on to it rock on Metallica we love you I am a die-hard Metallica freak and I'm proud of it what's so is my husband

5:45 Legendary axes hanging on that wall.....
2:12 these two 😄
Love my Tallica boys
9:40 that confirms it. That part refers to the Undertaker the wrestler hahhaha
Ramil Javier YEA!
and they still call it WWF ...
That's what I think everytime I hear the part,
Agree wholeheatedly on that one. WWF was the pinnacle of wrestling back in the days.
James Hetfield - Monster of Metal, singing about The Undertaker - The Devil of WWE! LOVE IT!!
i love this song so much, especially the guitar riff what kirk plays in between the parts.
My running theory has always been that the biggest James fan on the planet is Lars. He knows how to suggest, direct, and play with him, a bond that's been there since he hired him years ago. These behind the scenes videos highlight that
I like this working title.... I knew they really shined their love for Saxon in this...very Saxon riffage.
El Click Mas Rapido de mi Vida!!!!
Metallica Es La Luz!!!!!

2:00 Anybody noticed Ken Lawrence Flying V?

By far my favorite song from the album, this is so cool!

I love how drummers speak "guitar talk" lol Great album!!!
I waited so long for this Video
Omg. Its so cool seeing them in the process. haha and its funny seeing them in their gym shorts and barefoot recording the song
At around a second minute James is playing his Ken Lawrence V! That's super rare to see.
"I need to have the wah pedal on."
Classic Kirk.
It saddens me that the band that I know and love is falling apart I watch this video and the guys are having fun. Guys if you read this Jason is the key to your problems.
