I think we all can agree that there’s a special euphoria that we get when we hear a new Metallica track for the first time, and thanks to Bryce, we get to feel that again, every time he uploads. Thank you Bryce!
Masterful mixing (no pun intended) vocals are as close to Justice I could imagine them getting, there is, in fact - bass unlike most of the AJFA covers which leave it out for the reason of "ajfa super quiet bass = no bass at all" it's a great touch, especially after listening to the album so many times you can catch the bass lines in some parts of the tracks from that album. Not to mention - godlike guitar playing, that solo is SO from AJFA and not to mention - this FEELS like Metallica and it feels like you're listening to that classic Tallica track you've listened to a thousand times for the first time again, you've earned my like. Keep up the great work *EDIT:* I noticed you included the live ending to the song once Metallica finished this absolute bone crushing track, another amazing touch.
My two cents: I dig the slow, fade-in intro a la Blackened. I'm not 100% sure if it's being played backwards or not, but it sounds like it could be. Lots of little details are leaping out at me: You've added an extra slide to the riff (0:44) and changed some of the notes (0:47). I love the snare @ 0:51; it's very punchy and a good way to launch into the song. The audible bass is uncharacteristic of vintage Justice (0:52) but sounds awesome from a recording standpoint. Nice tom strike (0:57) to vary up the drum pattern. That thrum @ 1:01 sounds a bit dense, but I like it, playing-wise. The riff, here, has some added hooks and twists (1:04-1:10) that make it sound similar, but ultimately different from, the original. Nice bass insert (1:12) as well; less of an overt presence throughout the track, and more of an occasional spice similar to how Rob was treated on Death Magnetic. James voice has been deepened, but he almost sounds like a different singer (1:15). That is, he's lower-sounding than his Master of Puppets self, but doesn't quite sound like he would on Justice, either. Love the staccato notes @ 1:31, and the chorus riffing (1:31-1:35) is on point. No complaints. I can hear potential small nod to the opening riff to Blackened (1:41-1:43); it's subtle, and very well done. James' voice might sound unlike himself, but it still sounds amazing when he shouts "Battery!" out of the blue (1:48)-especially when it's followed up by audible bass and double bass. More double bass @ 2:06. The toms-and-china pattern (2:17) is neat, as well. This might sound like a list of cool things I'm rattling off, but this is what I'm noticing so far and I love all of it. The bridge transition a la Blackened (2:30) is awesome, complete with the steady kick and background harmonies. The bass slap capping off the crescendo @ 2:48 is sweet, but so is audible bass, in general. Much appreciated. The counterpoint here, establishing the main voice, followed by the additional voices, sounds incredibly awesome from a composition standpoint, but you've also managed to preserve the sound of the opening notes as heard on the original recording. They just have a Justice-type arrangement now and it's great. There's a bass harmonic(?) at 3:28, followed by a dandy of a solo. It resembles the original, but the dynamics and style are totally Justice; also the trills at the end really remind me of Frayed Ends of Sanity (correction: Dyers Eve), which is awesome. After the solo, it's back into the verse, aided along by yet more double bass (3:58). The start-stop pattern @ (4:35) during the chorus, is great, as is the dramatic pause @ 5:01 (more audible bass, too!). Not 100% sure about the bass fill towards the very end (5:12) but considering it's really the only thing that stuck out as a potential negative, that's quite an accomplishment! The rhythm is the perfect blend of Puppets and Justice, and virtually every experiment or change in the song adds something new and fresh without sacrificing an ounce of momentum or power. This ranks up there with your best work, if not being the best thing you've recorded on your channel up to this point. And if you have more songs en route then I'm over the moon! Keep 'em coming! \m/
2:45 forward sounds CRAZY on acid, I was candy flipping and literally rewinded for like 5 minutes to that part, especially at the very end of the breakdown before the solo where the guitar pitches up right before the first solo section
@@thetactician2787 All the more reason. I can't speak on his behalf, but from some of his polls he's had ideas that aren't just RTL, MOP and AJFA but people want that stuff
This has to be the best one yet!!! I love the whole thing especially from the bridge to the end!! The kirk octave you added on the bridge intro gave me legit chills.
Honestly, i love it when bryce puts his stuff into these song reworks/ mixes other songs together, it fits so well and i love it. If he, SOM, and warhedd would make a band and tour, i would pay.
Okay. FIRST OF ALL, this is the first song I've heard on my new phone. SECOND, Your work never ceases to amaze me. It's done so well and I always listen to your stuff whenever I have internet. I even listen to your tone tests while I do chores. Please don't stop doing what you're doing because it's God's work. Also third, Is that ending a teaser?
Wow, this is really good. I LOVE how you played the intro again in the bridge, it sounded amazing! You don't just transfer these songs to other albums, you improve them.
Dude the LIKES you get, are earned brother! Blown away...wish I would have heard these when you released them. As a guitar player growing up with this album (like most guitarist) I learned every song front and back. So for me to hear this is hair tasing! It’s like Metallica themselves went into the studio and spent weeks reworking them... as many Metallica fan’s, I feel AJFA and Puppets are their best work. Lars and James spent countless hours working out timing changes. James used ONLY “down stroke” picking on Justice, the “gallop” timings are impressive... (for those who are not guitar players) down stroking only means that you have to play TWICE as fast as someone who will use “up strokes” when galloping. For a “rhythm” guitar player taking the pick down then up on the E, A, and D string while the PALM of the pick hands softly lies on the strings near the bridge, this mutes the sound and allows the guitarist to play quick rhythms and gives that percussion type sound... but James, with an amazing ear, ONLY Down strokes each note, (for example) he will hit the E string with hit pic, instead of allowing his pick to hit the E string as he comes back up to get into position to hit the E string again, he has to pull his pic away from the E string so he doesn’t strike it, so he can strike downward... he does this about 15 times a second. The sound you get from doing all down stroke is the sound you hear on JUSTICE and somehow you pulled that off! ***MIND BLOWN*** (This is going to be a stupid question, but HOW THE HECK DID YOU DO THIS!?) If it’s software then you coded it because I have never heard of any program that could pull this off...the code would be ungodly large. Anyway HATS OFF... I hope people are donating some money for the sheer joy they get for hearing (not only a NEW song from Metallica) BUT AN AMAZING song like they USE to release!
This made me realize just how similar Blackened and Battery are when you sit down and think about it. Like without all of the edits to make them sound alike here I’ve been finding myself humming one song just to accidentally start humming the other now.
Since this is about the change in sound/style, in my mind I always changed the meaning of this song. Instead of it being about assault and battery, I looked at the front cover and I thought of a artillery battery pounding a soldier on the receiving end into madness.
Motorbreath on Load/Reload? :P This is also fking incredible, i feel like we shouldn't be hearing this cause it's reserved for another timeline but nevertheless kicks ass!!
Damn man, this is frickin awesome ! If nothing mentionned this isn't from Metallica, I could almost believe this is an unreleased track Metallica kept secret for a good while. Really astounding, keep it up !
Battered
Black and Battered!! And the intro is dope AF!! Salute
Battened?
An amazing song by Annihilator!
Haha battered knee! Fucking battered knees, go
Blackery
DO I HEAR B A S S IN MY PRECIOUS ...AND JUSTICE FOR ALL??
Yes
Yes. Don't tell Lars.
~Lars Ulrich
Lars; "Turn the volume up on my snare."
mmm b ass

Well said. On point.
don't forget about State of Mercury!
@@killswitch2408 of course!!!
and Denis Pauna!
and the OG GuitarRazze
@@8tonystark8 haha I know Denis personally
Damn. That reversed Battery intro (as a reference to Blackened) take me on :D
Amazing job!
Yeah dude that kicked ass
Just do the entire Metallica discography with the AJFA tone pls
LOL yes
It’s my favorite.
But with audible bass.
@@hectorbatera1994 NO because it won't sound like ajfa then
PLEASE?
Dude we need "My friend of Misery" or "Wherever I May Roam" in Ride the Lighting
Absolutely!!
Sad but true em ride the lightning ia ficar bom tbm
My friend of misery!
Yeah
Wherever I May Roam is godly. But it is overshadowed in my opinion by all of the other great song on that album.
If Creeping Death was on black album
imagine how heavy the die part would be
And yes ik theres a version of CD on Black Album, I just wanna hear Bryce's take on it
Ride The Black
wait...
@@nikolai522 well he could just use the art for Creeping Death and call it The Black Death...
ok maybe i never thought this one through
Lucky2Unlucky13 that’s genius.
@@nikolai522 The Black Lightning ⚡
Spit Out the Bone on Master of Puppets??
Fuck yeah
MAKE IT SO
PogChamp
Oh yeah, that would be totally overkill, please do it..
It’s been done and it’s not that great, but sounds incredibly redone as a ride the lightning song.
If Fuel was on RTL!!!
Fuel's main riff would be sound similar to Creeping Death in RTL tone
honestly, this is better than State of Mercury's version
2:34 sounds like a mix of blackened and the thing that should not be, fucking awesome dude! the whole thing is a masterpiece

Carlos Augusto Mares Dias Cause Bryce is more proficient at Justice. State of Mercury travels out of The other albums moreso
@@thetactician2787 All the more reason. I can't speak on his behalf, but from some of his polls he's had ideas that aren't just RTL, MOP and AJFA but people want that stuff
I feel of an idea for this song's intro
The frayed fill at 3:29 is so good
1:38 I love this vocal change! Kudos my friend.
The Harmonies are the best thing on AJFA, so happy you included some ! :D
This Is absolutely mind blowing
my neck is hurting
Haha same
Bryce.... I'm speechless. Listening to it I had the biggest smile on my face!!!!!
This is the first time I'm thoroughly impressed by any video of this kind. Unreal! Wow.
2:27 - 3:26 Absolutely loved what you did here
I love the fact that you incorporated some elements from the live performances (the absence of the second guitar at 0:49; the ending)
If Welcome Home was on Black Album
I love the fact that the intro reversed sound almost like Blackened's intro
I absolutely love this. Especially the middle part where you brought back the intro harmony.
I love the sound of that double bass at 3:59. Well done sir!
man this is awesome, thank you for great work!
This has to be the best one yet!!! I love the whole thing especially from the bridge to the end!! The kirk octave you added on the bridge intro gave me legit chills.
