    00:00 the ship is sailing. The water is calm. Far away, a storm is coming.
    00:34 the storm is getting closer, there is something wrong with the water.
    01:26 the storm reaches the ship. Thunders are all over the place. It seems that a strange and giant creature is beneath the ship
    A battle rages on. The sailors try to fight against the odd creature. But for no avail.
    06:11 most of the sailors are dead. The creature is destroying the ship.
    06:53 the ship starts to sink. It seems that all of the sailors are dead.
    07:56 the ship completely disapears. Nothing is left. The creature disapears as well. The water returns to the calmness.
    08:31 an extraordinary thunder rages in the sky to remind every sailor to never sail in those waters

    This was my first metallica song ever, i found it accidentally around 2013 when i was looking for music because my teacher asked me to find some music to add to a school play, and there it was, sitting in the suggested videos. This was around the time no one would shut up about chtulhu and when i read the title being the literal 10 year old i was i went something along the lines of "omg XDD chtulhu epic!!" and clicked on the video, up until that point everything i had listened to was just some queen songs every now, some other rock bands my dad played in the car but mostly minecraft parodies of famous songs and shit along those lines so when the intro ended and the music got intense i started losing my mind over this and how good it was.
    I downloaded it on a usb stick and brought it to school and when the teacher asked me to make the class listen to the songs i found to see if everyone liked them this was the first song i put on even tho it wasnt even loosely relevant to the school play.
    Volunteering for the music in the play was the best decision of my life, i wonder what shitty music i would be listening to right now if i didnt

      The first intro progression is James's but the next two are certainly Dave's. Metallica would play what was a precursor to this song on the final few dates of the KEA4O tour. It only featured two of the clean progressions and their distorted variations. So yes, the parts that make up most of the song. Those were written by Dave. The parts they added to Dave's parts - the first clean intro, the heavy bridge, the pounding tom part and harmonies and outro - were written by the other guys. Kirk wrote the solo. So it's a song which features contributions from 5 members of Metallica! ;)

      ThePolerbearproducts SUicide is great...the bass sounds great, the riffs sounds incredible and there are like two or three drums solos at the end of the song...the only problem with that song is the production...
      And the bass work in "The Call of Ktulu" is more tecnical than "Orion" and has a better atmosphere and solos
      Another nice tune of Metallica for me is "My friend or misery" , is sad that song is not an instrumental..such a sahme because the bass lines of Jason newsted of that song were catchy and good

    Legend has it that Cliff rode a lighting bolt to the middle of the Pacific to face Ktulu. At first sight Ktulu fled in fear. Upon cliffs return they wrote this in an attempt to call Ktulu back to meet again. Ktulu hasn't been seen since. It's up to us now to play this very loud at least once a night in an attempt to make Ktulu rise again and be defeated once and for all by this amazing piece of art.

      In this post-Freudian age the institution of marriage, as a by-product of religiously-fueled monogamy, has deteriorated to the point that amorphous sexual identity, as opposed to rigid religiosity, has become the primary self-defining feature of the individual. But has anything changed? Has the entrapment of women via marriage, which Blake called a "gilded cage" merely deteriorated to the "rusty prison" of the Bang Bus, representative of anonymous male-centric sex and continued subjugation?

    00:00 - 00:34 hooded figures gathering on a stormy cliff next to the ocean forming a circle, taking their time. it is not raining but black clouds are there as far as the eye can see
    00:34 - 01:01 starting a fire in the center of the circle, lighting candles to light their altar.
    01:02 - 01:26 singing chants for the call, preparing the first victim.
    01:26 - 01:30 the high priest puts the dagger to victims neck, cuts it, blood starts to spill to the altar.
    01:30 - 01:45 his body trembles as the blood drains from his veins, occult keep chanting.
    01:45 - 01:58 victim dies, they throw his corpse into fire, the smell of burnt flesh surrounds them, fills their lungs.
    01:58 - 02:25 chant is getting wilder as they bring the second victim to the altar. this time the high priest goes for the eyes, taking them out with the tip of his dagger, one by one, victim screams
    02:25 - 03:20 priest stabs the second victim in the heart, his screams stopped but his body starts getting spasms, strange, meaningless sounds from his throat. ...and he dies.
    03:21 - 03:47 they throw the second body to the fire, occult stops chanting as the high priest starts to chant the words.
    03:47 - 04:01 occult repeats with the priest, more powerful than ever. like their lives depending on it.
    04:02 - 04:57 the priest kneels down before altar, making their offering.
    04:58 - 05:24 rock beneath their feet starts shaking, ocean starts to boil
    05:25 - 05:38 they are waiting with curiosity and exicitement
    05:39 - 06:11 fear takes over, and rises fast, earth shakes harder, terror takes over fear, their hearts beating like they are racing each other, almost gonna explode
    06:12 - 06:27 for a moment everything stops, earth stops shaking, ocean stops boiling even the terror they felt is gone, until the moaning sound coming from the deeps of the ocean
    06:28 - 06:54 he's rising from the deeps of the ocean, from r'leyh, where he was sleeping for thousands of years, he's now awake, they know that, terror takes over their minds, again. they enjoy the terror they feel.
    06:55 - 07:50 he's there, right before their eyes, with all his grandeur, they starting to lose their mind, all of them, all that they summon him, victims were so lucky to not to see that... thing. he starts to swing his tentacles, crushing "everything" they hit, grabbing cultists, eating them.
    07:51 - 07:56 the priest runs by the altar, kneels down again.
    07:57 - 08:27 starts chanting again.
    08:28 - 08:32 cthulhu rises his tentacles, they're so big almost touches the clouds
    08:33 - 08:55 hits a couple of tentacle blows, one right to the altar, grabs the high priest, crushes him.
