Jason Newsted was so important to the Megaforce Metallica is. Such a pity creative differences and egos got in the way of the band's foundations. Guess we just have to accept Robert Trujillo is there. Jason will always be missed. I grew up with Jason on bass and the black album been released. Metallica are in my heart, mind and soul. They defy the odds so many bands have fallen down to the wasteland.
Ikr, there are bands that have multiple members playing the same instrument. Iron Maiden has three lead guitarists, Grateful Dead had two drummers, you couldn't fucking count how many bands have multiple vocalists, Metallica could work with two bass players. Especially considering how badass they sound that way.
@@JustAPairofLegs Actually, Dave probably had rehearsed the original album recording, because he starts playing that part, but stops quickly because the Metallica boys did not go into that section.
The vibe is SO MUCH better with Jason on stage with them... The proof is right here ladies and gentlemen!! Goddamn, I miss Jason!! Metallica was heavier with him. There is NO denying that fact.
Pfff...Rob is genial, Jason the past, mostrando important james he is the man..the god, restaurantes people,nice, Best musician, butacas reality, hetfield ulrich.go listen inglés o ther yets, s tupido people.
There's no denying the fact that rob is a kick as bassist, I have much love for him but Jason just fits the bill so much better. He plays with them for one night and they sound better than they have in a decade. He has what they've been missing.
I agree. james vocals from the black album on..has irritated me...no aggression, you wouldnt ever imagine they were once a thrash band with the way he sings now...i know age is a factor.
Imagine if metallica called back Jason and we had a new setup where rob is the lead bassist and Jason is the rhythm bassist and backing vocals . just like a guitar setup. imagine a bass off during their live shows. it would be beautiful to witness
Trujillo is such a talented bass player with great, thick sound the size of a house. Jason is just pure and raw fucking aggression, shoving the song down your throat and I'm fucking loving it. Huge respect for both guys.
4:19 Probably the coolest Rob moment ever!!! Kinda ruined by James doing the wicked witch laugh and Kirk dropping his pick and hitting the wrong chord. haha. :)
Up until that point, James had do his own "battery" since Robert joined the band. I bet he was stoked when he heard Jason barking "BA-TOR-RAY". You see James stopped saying after the first time.
Look at Kirk during this performance. He can't fucking hide it. He misses Jason SO much. If he had had the at the right time then Jason never would have left. Unfortunately, Kirk still has no balls. He just does whatever James and Lars say.
Wow, there is a significant difference between this performance and other performances of Battery without Jason. Jason makes James sing better and Lars actually play like a drum player
Goddamn, I really miss Jason. Of all their bassists, he definitely had the best vocals - by a long shot. I really like the feel I get from Rob, as well, but he's not nearly as good of a singer. Although he has gotten better over the years. Be that as it may, it took him many years to get this good, but it only took Jason one or two years. It'd be awesome if Jason re-joined the band, while Rob was still playing. Either that, or Jason would be the only bassist in Metallica.
Metallica with Newsted is the real Metallica. The Metallica I fell in love with over 27 years ago. They are not the same band without him. Rob is alright but I don't really care what they do anymore since 2001. Now they are more of a corporate act than a Metal band. It's sad but true.
Danimal300zx i grew up with Jason as the Metallica bassist. Since Cliff (RIP) cant be there, Jason SHOULD be. His playing style fits Metallica better in my opinion.
Fernando Idalgo Here is the thing, Metallica they are also rans or has been's. I don't really care what they do or how many shitty drum fills Lars can not do. I will listen to Skelitonwitch, the new Carcass and be happy. Also what I meant by corporate act is about them letting their management controlling them and having them do stupid shit like that awful rendition of One with Ling Ling. Of course they do it for the fucking money what would they be doing it for a pat on the back. They haven't had a good album in 23 years!! anything after The Black Album is shit. The reason why were once the greatest band in the world. they played with precision and speed. Now a shell of themselves. Old and sloppy doesn't cut it when you are up to Metallica standards. Those standards are long gone.
Jason or Rob have nothing to do with what Metallica have become. Do you think they would still sound like they were in there 20's/30's if Jason was still in the band?
I love Rob and the new cd, but dammit Jason was the shit! Those backing vocals. So much more energy. And if you all notice, the crowd is the loudest with Newsted up there.
I've been playing guitar for 16 years and I still don't understand how James can sing and play this at the same time. The syncopation of the mind that is required is crazy
I fucking love Jason. He's one of my idols as a bassplayer. But you gotta give Rob credit for keeping Metallica together. I prefer Jason over any other bassplayer, but Rob kept the band together. Probably because he seems chill as fuck.
That was tight!! Like good old Metallica! nothing wrong with so called "new" metallica, its still the same old... but oh Jason... oh!! Jesus Christ dude, you are something.
Seeing jason enjoy this in that level,imagine the feeling when decide to left the band for the right reasons,a true warrior that choose the right instead of passion.
omg, this is one of their best, you can tell they love playing together. They sound so great together. Jason needs to come back. sorry Robert your a nice dude but Jason is Metallica fam 💯.
Wow, they actually played the middle section live for once, instead of the usual stupid "AWWWW YUUUU ALIVEEEE" nonsense. And Kirk pretty much nailed the solo. Bravo!
If you are so much in love with jason then why don’t you go and listen to him. He have a band now. You can never understand how humble and generous rob is.

Newsted is Metallica's battery.

He says it at 2:10
i mean... it wouldn't hurt if metallica had two bass players...

Iron Maiden has three lead guitarists, Grateful Dead had two drummers, you couldn't fucking count how many bands have multiple vocalists, Metallica could work with two bass players. Especially considering how badass they sound that way.
It sounds awesome plus bass is super clear from the bass war
Dude, it'd even be great for a new album, imagine a song where Jason & Rob have a clean bass intro duo style harmonic crazy shit going on!
They should add Jason and add Lombardo for Lars 🤣
Yeah..exactly I think it would give more punch
All of a sudden it's 1989... except for James' vocals. Jason is a beast!
Lukeblueslover and lars' drumming
Lukeblueslover lol yeah James sounds atrocious
@@bcal2524 no he doesn't he sounds older, certainly not in his prime but he's okay
@@BasketCase420 This wasn’t his best performance. He’s even older now and sounds much better than he did here
He sounds like middle mgmt at company Thanksgiving party karaoke.
Holy shit they actually played the middle part of Battery. Wish they could do that more
yeah !! i was shocked when i saw them playing it ??
Have u seen them play this with Dave Lambardo he his ham shit crazy on the middle part
@@JustAPairofLegs Actually, Dave probably had rehearsed the original album recording, because he starts playing that part, but stops quickly because the Metallica boys did not go into that section.
Me too especially when I I go see then play them play live in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada 🇨🇦
The vibe is SO MUCH better with Jason on stage with them... The proof is right here ladies and gentlemen!! Goddamn, I miss Jason!! Metallica was heavier with him. There is NO denying that fact.
Pfff...Rob is genial, Jason the past, mostrando important james he is the man..the god, restaurantes people,nice, Best musician, butacas reality, hetfield ulrich.go listen inglés o ther yets, s tupido people.
Manuel juan Vassallo fuc traducción. .. James lars, the other, no exist.
Those backup vox
Would be kool as hell if there was two basses I think it would give more punch specially for concerts...I miss Jason too
@@jamesfewell2100 I agree. Jasons backing vocals. Sadly he does not have the physicality to do that Metallica stuff anymore :(
Jason Newsted's first song played on state with Metallica as their new bassist after Cliff died was Battery in 1986
Good observation.
and one of the songs that Robert played during audition
There's no denying the fact that rob is a kick as bassist, I have much love for him but Jason just fits the bill so much better. He plays with them for one night and they sound better than they have in a decade. He has what they've been missing.
There's so much more Metallica energy and aggressiveness when Jason's with them. It's so sad but amazing
I didn't know Seth Rogan was a bad motherfucker on bass.
It's really true Eddie Herger
LeBron Irving I see what you did there.
I agree. james vocals from the black album on..has irritated me...no aggression, you wouldnt ever imagine they were once a thrash band with the way he sings now...i know age is a factor.
sad but true

Jason is pretty talented too
4:19 Probably the coolest Rob moment ever!!! Kinda ruined by James doing the wicked witch laugh and Kirk dropping his pick and hitting the wrong chord. haha. :)
Haha, I came looking for this moment after hearing you describe it on stream :)
Hey, I came here after your latest video!
so this is what you were talkin about lmao
Here after watching your video 😂😂😂
I don't think James laugh ruined it but Kirk certainly did
James: What are you doing standing up?
Lars: Waiting for you to start the fucking song!
Hahahaha lol
James: I’m doing a cool little thing.
Why is the band so energetic it's amazing how much energy and speed they picked up with Jason
Jason Newsted is the battery in/to the band. He oozes energy. Love him longtime 💜💖💪
I love how Jason still has the anger and look on his face when he does backing vocals just like back in the late 80's and 90's.
Up until that point, James had do his own "battery" since Robert joined the band. I bet he was stoked when he heard Jason barking "BA-TOR-RAY". You see James stopped saying after the first time.
Newsted's vocal's is amazing!
Look at Kirk during this performance. He can't fucking hide it. He misses Jason SO much. If he had had the at the right time then Jason never would have left. Unfortunately, Kirk still has no balls. He just does whatever James and Lars say.
He knows his place
"They're gonna Mustaine me"
was there some ambulance waiting for Lars after the show?
+Tamás Alföldi AHAHAHA fucking lost my shit!
HAHAHAHAHHAA
The coke finally wore off.
😂😂😂
Lol
Hey, with two bassits you can finally hear the instruments!
Cant take a joke?
I wasn't the band that decided to fuck with their new bassist and turn down the bass track on an entire album
fortworths
How about I knowledge your face with my fists?
fortworths You tried.
I was Just About to post that exact same thing ::)) I can finally can hear the bass..
Those shots when you only see James, Kirk and Jason...fantastic.
This is the real and only way to truly perform Battery - with Jason shouting BATTERY!!!!!
All I got to say IS Jason Fucking Newsted!!!!!
Jason's backing vocals make the live performances epic....he's missed!
I miss jason newsted in the band so veryveryvery much
So do I. I like Newsted and follow them.
i missd jason so much.. AMAZING VOCAL AND ENERGY WITH HIM ON STAGE FUUUUUCK
Wow, there is a significant difference between this performance and other performances of Battery without Jason. Jason makes James sing better and Lars actually play like a drum player
Max Lu Agreed although James sounds absolutely awful here
Just imagine how good lars would be if they were able to get cliff back.
Lars actually plays better when Jason is on stage!
100%
Agree
Goddamn, I really miss Jason. Of all their bassists, he definitely had the best vocals - by a long shot. I really like the feel I get from Rob, as well, but he's not nearly as good of a singer.

It'd be awesome if Jason re-joined the band, while Rob was still playing. Either that, or Jason would be the only bassist in Metallica.
when lars wants, he can
When....
I feel like Jason make Lars play better
@@X1Ju1 yup alday every day
@@X1Ju1 definitely, and so did Cliff, even moreso.
i love how Jason totally attacks the mic. he's pretty dang metal.
I love watching Jason enjoy himself just as much as he did in the 90s playing live with these guys. He's having a blast
He has to come back...sorry trujillo.
So true lmao, so much more energy
@@grungemetalhd1668 Jason said he doesn’t want to come back. But rob has sound closer to cliffs anyway
Jason was the intensity behind metallica he gave them the energy. With his added vox it was a perfect match
The live energy that Jason brings to Metallica is amazing!
0:30
James: what are you doing standing up?
Lars: waiting for you to play the folkin' song
lmao 😂
Jason omg JAson.....so rough, so good.

I watched them fucking KRANK a 2hr15min set last month....they haven't lost a thing. you nay-sayers are fucking kooks. take off
Jason’s headbang at 4:30 is fuckin epic. Jason’s like “Rob I ll show you how it’s done”. Both great bass players.
And this is why Jason was such an integral part of the band.
Sure would be cool to watch this without the watermark dead center the WHOLE time!!!
sbrave Amen.
I love Rob and the new cd, but dammit Jason was the shit! Those backing vocals. So much more energy. And if you all notice, the crowd is the loudest with Newsted up there.

Jason is the spirit of Metallica. I like Rob, he's a good bassist, but he just doesn't fit in Metallica like Jason did.
I like Rob but he's more of a funk bassist.
I fucking love Jason. He's one of my idols as a bassplayer. But you gotta give Rob credit for keeping Metallica together. I prefer Jason over any other bassplayer, but Rob kept the band together. Probably because he seems chill as fuck.
Jason Newsted is the core of the band.
Jason is the battery of Metallica.
Rob is better with ozzy and black label society
Jason needs to rejoin full-time. They can pull off having two bassists.
Mad fuckin power from Jason's throat!! Puro pinche poder en la garganta de Jason!!
Jason VOICE and Rob FINGER !!!! :D
That is just it !! :D
METALLICA = James, Lars, Kirk, Jason, Rob = METAL
Awe they look more bad ass with Jason
Jason Newsted: BATTERY!!!!!!! (Powerful!!!)
Metallica ft. Robert trujilo
1:21 Welcome back Jason ;)
Greetings from 2023! Jason is a bass machine, the best of all!
That was tight!! Like good old Metallica! nothing wrong with so called "new" metallica, its still the same old... but oh Jason... oh!! Jesus Christ dude, you are something.
I always liked Jason, his vocals are great!
Step aside rob
Seeing jason enjoy this in that level,imagine the feeling when decide to left the band for the right reasons,a true warrior that choose the right instead of passion.
Is it only me who enjoys watching Jason perform more than the other members of the group?
Nadie siente más tocar y cantar las canciones de Metallica que Jason, We miss You Jason 😢.
Oooooo MY GOD JASON SOUNDS F¥{kin INSANE….!!!!! glimpses of 89’ in those vocals 😎🤘🏻
3:43 ~ 4:17
That's the Metallica I want to see.
When Jason turns red, you know something good is coming!!
Need you back Jason !!
I love the moment when Rob and Jason share a mic :) sportsmanship \m/ they're all amazing musicians
Jason is son of glory days...best days in metal ever...
Metallica with Jason gave us the best concerts ever, look at Seattle '89, Moscow '91, San Diego '92 fucking amazing!
watch this and then watch the live version from 1989 in Seattle. I miss those days. Still for being almost 50 this is pretty badass.
If you ever feel useless, remember Rob is playing bass along with Jason Newsted.
We love you too Rob
this is the best sounding performance of this track I've ever heard. It's just awesome.
Step away from the mic Rob..Jason’s got this.
Fantastic. Jason is having a lot of fun up there and it shows. I forgot how much his stage presence adds to the band.
omg, this is one of their best, you can tell they love playing together. They sound so great together. Jason needs to come back. sorry Robert your a nice dude but Jason is Metallica fam 💯.
2:38 There's something beautiful at how Jason bops his head.
Seeing Jason, i miss him man, just look at his energy in the beginning of the song, sick.
Jason' voice is awesome
Wow, they actually played the middle section live for once, instead of the usual stupid "AWWWW YUUUU ALIVEEEE" nonsense. And Kirk pretty much nailed the solo. Bravo!
I think they only stopped doing that when Rob joined.
Com jason da até vontade de escutar Metallica de novo, Jason e a bateria do Metallica
“Sit your a$$ down Lars and play the drums like you are supposed to.” - Butthead
I love how James is al Clean and a little bit waily and Jason's just like BATTERY!
Jason Newsted rules!!!!!!!!!!!!
A bass duet between Jason and Rob i love it i can fucking hear it loudly!
3:44-4:17 IS METALLICA. God, what a sight, just seeing James, Kirk and Jason there. Flashback to PRE-2001 for me.
Jason's vocals are insane! :D
4:04 how awesome does this sound we need two bass players
Jason Newsted
That was so awesome! I loved it!
By the way, there was a guy screaming "WIPLASH!" at the beginning, which they didn't play, haha. Poor dude.
Rob is incredible and I'm thankful for him. But JASON IS METALLICA. They are one and the same. He is the soul of that band.
Last year that they played the segment before the solo. Love that riff.
Jason: “and that’s how it’s done, Rob, or whatever your name is.”
Thank you for the HD movie! Great show!
I miss James's Old Voice, So much anger and Agressiveness
We all love Jason but to not forget Rob this was a cool view 4:20
Jason shows Rob how its done!! None of this crawling round shit. Raw energy and power and backing vocals to die for!!!
🦀🎸
As much as I respect Rob as a bass player he doesn’t belong in Metallica he’s a punk bass player
That Jason chant at the end of the song says IT ALL. He pushed James to be more aggressive. Something James hasn't been for so long.
battery is meant to be yelled... not sung like a country song ... oh james.
Rob B. 2011 was a rough year for James.
Then Jason yells "BATTERY!" and it's a sledgehammer to the face.
His voice was in really bad shape at the time. Doing much better now thankfully
LOove me some Jason...
No disrespect, but can we have Jason back in Metallica?
Rob, Jason's here, no need for your "back up vocals". Please have a seat. Lol
I was going to comment the same
If you are so much in love with jason then why don’t you go and listen to him. He have a band now. You can never understand how humble and generous rob is.
@@BaljeetSingh-hc5of *has
He can go away for good, he has never and will never fit metallica.
@@davidisaksson3533 racist much?
Jason always sounded sick!!
it's Orgasmic to see Jason with the boys once again. l hope they do it more often.
Jason is just fucking brutal, best backup vox they ever had. period.
Jasons "battery!" is something you can't replace
Jason just.....fucking rocks!!!
