Someone needs to make a game where you can play as a little James, Kirk, Lars, Cliff, Jason or Rob saving the world with their guitars/drums. Game could be a mega man style game using these 8-bit Metallica songs. I’d donate to this project
Either disposable heroes or fight fire with fire has to be my favorite Metallica tune. The solo for disposable heroes is incredible. Love that descending arpeggio that starts the second half.
We've seen Metallica on stage, on DVD, and in the movie theaters. We've even seen them perform with symphonies. But now we listen to them as if they were playing through a NES.
I remember watching the Big 4 in theatres with all my friends. We took up the top 2 rows and were raging so hard you could feel the steps move. Had people recognize me just from that and told how they loved that we treated it like an actual concert. Brotherhood of Steel shit! \m/
@@chrisschurfeld4076 are you stating 8 bits is older than 64 bit? I would concur. But most people don't even get what a bit or byte is now, so kudos for being old (myself as well). We had to start somewhere, long ago :)
These would make a killer Metallica video game songs that are 8 bit. I could see it, master of puppets is the boss level and battery would be the the title screen song.
imagine a metallica themed doom wad with like guitars and drums and stuff as weapons and james hetfield as the little face profile thing that'd be awesome
they're just re-instrumented midi files that have existed on the net for ages, they probably came from a professional transcriber at some point in the 90s

@@Badger32284 Personally, I think if Burton had lived, I could totally see him pursuing a path away from Metallica to more orchestrated types of music. Not that he would have left Metallica completely, maybe he would have, but at least I think he would have beat them to the punch with the whole "S&M" thing, in the band or not! Probably would have got a symphony with Metallica about a decade before we actually got it if Burton hadn't have passed! He was already there in his mind anyways, I think. I could have easily seen him becoming heavily involved with movie scores or any number of orchestral projects.
After spending the best part of my teens and 20's learning every riff and lead, and later the drums for this album, I am in awe at how well these are replicated. Absolutely magnificent!
@@jafro8 believe me that that comment means more to the creator than a random sampling of 100 comments. I know every part of the first 5 albums too. there's honestly not that many of us. Metallica can't go out and play their first 5 albums without months and months of revisiting the material... do is kind of higher praise than if James Hetfield got on here to comment. way to be inappropriately woke in metal, home of the autistic musician class though.
The reason this works so well is the source material - these are amazing songs, so well written to begin with. And that is a sign of good, well written music - you can take it and perform it in different styles and it still holds up well. Awesome work on transcribing all this this to 8-Bit though!
Clicked on this out of curiosity, ended up listening to the whole thing because it was so damn good. Also, by the time I got to Orion, a though occurred to me: Metallica's compositions are timeless to the point that even an 8-bit rendition is captivating. I got lost in the music as I do when listening to the real album. Best metal album of all time from the best metal band of all time, in my opinion. Also, nice cover art.
Well what do we have here huh? You're not foolin anyone buddy. I'm John Noonan so you couldn't be!!! haha This is somewhere between awesome and downright bizarre...I mean the album though not existence of another John Noonan I know another two J.N.'s in my general area alone but always nice to see a Noonan and especially a Metallinoonan!
@@davidwalters9339 absolutely. Actually heard it in an Abuelos while eating dinner. I instinctively knew the song, but couldn't my finger on it at first. May or may not have embarrassed myself with my reaction when I realized it
I didnt belive that i will headbang on 8th bit music,but here i am.... that welcome home/ orion.... flawless.... brings tears to my eyes..Respect dude.
Battery sounds like it could literally be boss music with different phases... guess I'm listening to the rest now. Imagine if you ever heard anything like this on an NES as a kid. It would be mind blowing. lol
8-bit Orion blew my mind! Makes me wonder if the NES would've been capable of sliding notes like that. This song would've been such a cool soundtrack to the OG Final Fantasy!
This is what happens when you scroll through RUclips too long in search of more guitar content lol. But it’s sick!, good work I love it. It’s like a better guitar pro track haha
You fucking nailed it, dude. Absolutely brilliant from top to bottom. By the time I got to Leper Messiah all I could think about was slaying hordes of the undead with nothing more than a bullwhip and some throwing axes. Also, destroying walls to find hidden meat if I get hungry
This is a fantastic example on how well-written music can stand not only the test of time, but being reaccommodated into different formats and genres. All the nuances, emotional responses and melodic intentions are there. I'm fittin to use this as an example for teaching music production.
Underrated comment. How had this been up for 9 days and I’m only the 3rd like? Probably because we’re the only one old enough to remember Castlevania lol
Well if it isn't pure peanut butter and jelly! This takes me back to playing the Atari 7800 and the NES while listening to Metallica🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 even though it's the first time I'm hearing it is absolutely nostalgic and exactly what the doctor asked for👍🤘✌
This 8 bit version of Master of puppets shows that it doesnt matter how the music is performed, the songs are still killing. Best Metal album ever, even in 8 bit. Very nice job!!
So apparently people want me to do ...And Justice For All, which I didn't plan to do. That would take me a good while longer because I don't know those songs as well as I do the ones of Ride The Lightning and Master Of Puppets; I'll tell you what: If *this video gets 666 likes then I will do ...And Justice For All* so like this video, tell your friends to like this video, force innocent children at gunpoint to like this video, marry someone and produce many children with them and have all those children like the video and maybe by the year 2069 you will be able to enjoy the rich and pronounced bass lines of ...And Justice For All in 1969 quality! As of me checking last this video has 660 likes and 2 dislike; Looks like ...And Justice For All is coming... Aaaaand now it's 859... I guess you can stop liking this video now. STOP LIKING IT! N O W ! ! ! I started working on ...And Justice For All; You can subscribe if you want to be notified when that goes up. Besides, I murder everyone who isn't subscribed and it's taking a lot of time to do that, thus if more people subscribe I will have fewer people to murder and more time to make that video.
So I clicked this just out of curiosity thinking "mhm let's give it a try for a minute" - I've spend 54minutes listening to the whole album in 8bit lol
Battery is brutally fast, iirc 83ms between the short hits of the gallop. To put that in perspective that's about 12 hz, much faster and the hand movements would almost be in the audible range. Kinda makes me want to mess around with the inSIDious for fun.
I take my hat off to you… the time and dedication this must have taken to reproduce this, literally note for note and beat for beat is astounding!!! My upmost respect to you.

8-bit Master of Puppets sounds like something straight out of Doom
The doom music was heavily inspired by metallica and other metal bands :)
"at doom's gate" sounds a lot like master of puppets
@@corianteri and it plays like master of puppets. or i can't play without downstrokes anymore...
No shit. Doom already uses metal music in its soundtrack.
@@corianteri its hooked by dri
Someone needs to make a game where you can play as a little James, Kirk, Lars, Cliff, Jason or Rob saving the world with their guitars/drums. Game could be a mega man style game using these 8-bit Metallica songs.
I’d donate to this project
I second this, and will donate as well
You could even have Mustaine start out in the party and get kicked out early to become an antagonist and later at the end make up with them.
@@rotmusic8505: The Prologue to Story Mode.
@@rotmusic8505 or Dave could come back better and stronger then them.
@@TheZigzach Hahaha I was thinking along those lines too
Listening to this while playing Doom II. Simply amazing covers!
same idea
*yes*
i was thinking the same thing
5:11 sounds just like Knee deep in the dead *edit errr no its 5:22 actually 😄
Gonna play doom again 😎🤘
Even in 8-bits style, Disposable Heroes hits me strong AF. WHAT A SONG!
The main riff is not to be f*cked with and it's almost 40yr old🤘
Listen to the original whilst playing F-ZERO ....This entire album got wore out on some F-0
Either disposable heroes or fight fire with fire has to be my favorite Metallica tune. The solo for disposable heroes is incredible. Love that descending arpeggio that starts the second half.
HELL YEAH ONE OF MY FAVS TOO
Listen to it always in the gym and hypes me up
We've seen Metallica on stage, on DVD, and in the movie theaters. We've even seen them perform with symphonies. But now we listen to them as if they were playing through a NES.
That means we're old now. 😂
I remember watching the Big 4 in theatres with all my friends. We took up the top 2 rows and were raging so hard you could feel the steps move. Had people recognize me just from that and told how they loved that we treated it like an actual concert. Brotherhood of Steel shit! \m/
NES? that was 8 bit we're moving up to 16 bit now with SEGA GENESIS! Get wit it!
@@chrisschurfeld4076 are you stating 8 bits is older than 64 bit? I would concur. But most people don't even get what a bit or byte is now, so kudos for being old (myself as well). We had to start somewhere, long ago :)
C64 or an early Adlib, not sure the NES had the necessary number of channels, but I get what you're saying.
These would make a killer Metallica video game songs that are 8 bit. I could see it, master of puppets is the boss level and battery would be the the title screen song.
The Orion starting riff could work for a menu waiting screen or something
....or the closing credits...
2nd half of Orion is definitely the crystal cave/underground level
yeah this would be cool at the last level with the BFG9000
imagine a metallica themed doom wad with like guitars and drums and stuff as weapons and james hetfield as the little face profile thing that'd be awesome
Nothing to say. Simply Amazing. Even the drum fills are accurate hahaha
Lars' drum fills were probably the easiest part.

‘Hey Lars, this guys better!!’
Friend: What kind of music you listen to?
Me: I listen to 8-bit version of Metalica.
*Like heck, why would I hide it, this is amazing*
Hasta el día de hoy, no sé cómo explicar que tengo versiones en 8 bits de algunas canciones o soundtracks de juegos de NES en mi celular.
Master Of Bits
1- Bittery
2- Master Of Bits
3- The Bit That Should Not Be
4- Welcome Home (Bitarium)

🤣😂🤣 Yes!
I love how Orion keeps his name, hell yeah!
😄
Could have been the bit that should not bit
3- The Thing That Should Not Bit
theres no reason that 8-bit Orion had to have been this majestic. good shit
It's the best musical piece ever written so I guess it makes sense that even 8 bit would sound amazing

Originally being instrumental helps, and it already sounded a little 8-bit-esque, IMO. Turned out almost perfect!
@@Badger32284 yep and yes. I have ORION tattoed across my forearm. My one and only tattoo.
I wouldn't think headbang with 8-bit. This is amazing

LITERALLY
Sounds like a video game soundtrack lol
I don't think you know what literally means.
Its sooooo classic doom 💀💀
I skipped to Orion right away to hear that middle part chill guitar solo, translates perfectly oooof
Orion sends chills up and down my spine, it’s brilliant in all forms, original and 8-bit form. Thanks man!
same here man
amen
One of my all time favorite songs and this version didn’t disappoint. Anyone heard the Rodrigo y Gabriela cover of it?
@@davidwalters9339 absolutely. Actually heard it in an Abuelos while eating dinner.

Still sounds better than St Anger
By a huge margin.

Yep
also better mixed than "and justice..."
Y’all are so dramatic about how bad st anger is lol
Really highlights a lot of the harmonies that cliff wrote
I never could get into post Cliff Metallica. The melody and sophistication died with him.
@@ZekeMan62 even Justice?
@@BggProductions
Justice was alright... I didn't hate it, but it didn't thrill me.

That solo in sanitarium is 🔥
The whole thing is 🔥
All of it!!!!
Whoa dude. You nailed Orion perfectly.
Only Master of Puppets and Disposable Heroes sound better in 1.25 speed. Nice work!
Battery sounds like it could literally be boss music with different phases... guess I'm listening to the rest now. Imagine if you ever heard anything like this on an NES as a kid. It would be mind blowing. lol
Fuck yeah. That woulda been the best game.
The funny part is that most of the thrash parts actually remind me a lot of megaman 2... Kinda make sense ahhahahahah
Bucky O'Hare has a pretty heavy soundtrack. ;)
You say need help, but you have created a masterpiece from a masterpiece
Sanitarium is beautiful… truly an amazing song
Just as usual, people aren't talking about Damage Inc enough. Fuckin incredible job on it all
No one brings up that song because of "all the sWeArInG in the lyrics"
@@zer0deaths862 😱😱😱OH MY GOODNESS!!
that intro thooo
51:22 - THAT'S my jam. SOOOOOO much fun to play on guitar.
Why does it matter to you what other people aren't talking about. Mention it if it mean so damn much to you and go on with your life.
Sounds like the soundtrack to Castlevania
I don't understand if these songs fit so well in 8-bit or if you're a genius... either case, the end result is exceptional!!
MOP sounds like something that would be in an old 8-bit boss fight and i love it
8-bit Orion blew my mind! Makes me wonder if the NES would've been capable of sliding notes like that. This song would've been such a cool soundtrack to the OG Final Fantasy!

Damn dude. That’s exactly how I got here.
I really enjoyed this video. I shared it on my community page so hopefully more people can enjoy this masterpiece as well
Using this next time i play the original doom. This goes unbelievably hard.
I clicked on this expecting the song… the whole damn album… now that’s a treat!
Альбом приобрёл новое и такое памятное старое очарование..
Full respect for the amount of love that went into this… take a bow sir. Bravo 👏
This is great, if there was a physical CD coming out with this, I'd buy it.

I love the art too.
Underrated comment. How had this been up for 9 days and I’m only the 3rd like? Probably because we’re the only one old enough to remember Castlevania lol
It’s so amazing that anyone would actually sit down and create this from scratch. The Internet is amazing
The fact that this mirrors the dual channels for the instruments in the original is hilarious and means you must have spent a long ass time on this
Master of Puppets chorus sounds goddamn amazing. Good work man!
bro! this is genious , just discovered your channel and subscribed, hope you keep posting this amazing 8bit albums!!!! take care!
I miss the days of downloading MIDI files people created of albums. This itches that nostalgia! Thanks! :D
Best music I've heard in the metal world for a while .
The downstrokes are so neat! Great job!
Sounds Like a Doom 1 Soundtrack...Love it
I'm not exactly sure what you do differently than other people who make 8 bit renditions, but this is top teir
how strange it sounds tornado of souls
I seen 8 bit and had to click. IT"S ALL 8 BIT. Audio Video, THIS IS AMAZINGLY HILARIOUSLY AWESOME ! ! !
It's like I've been zapped Tron-style into a game, killing demons alongside Cliff. 🤘🏼
The tetris solo in master of puppets SLAPS!

Wow Metallica and Atari 7800…!
Are you stealing my favorites..??
Great for you man 😊😊

Fun to play along on guitar with, it actually helped me hear certain missed notes much clearer.
I didn't know I needed this in my life. Long live 8 bit games!! Love live Metallica!!
In my latest video I stumbled upon your username and found it mildly entertaining; Here, take this meaningless heart;
This is lot more exciting than years ago when I opened the album cassette.

I rarely listen to whole albums these days but couldn’t stop once I started 🤘🏼😎
disposable heroes sounds amazing
