I really like this couple of videoclips. No story, no script, no actors, no crap. Just the band doing their thing. I prefer that when it comes to rock music videos.
One is not essential, it is "anti promo video " a fckn piece of art, mixed with a antiwar movie for antiwar lyrics. tvs was so confused, no Hair metal or new romantic but a raw single about War in a moment of cold War, middle orient problema and desert storm was in the air too.
No matter what they do, there's no pleasing some people. This is better than anything I hoped for. It's got Kill 'em All style lyrics, Master of Puppets pacing and Black Album melody. It's Metallica, through and through. I'm ecstatic.
In that order it does describe what's going on in the song I couldn't exactly put my finger on it either. All though had some vibes from Death Magnetic but as you hear it more it's totally different maybe the tone is what a lot of people are complaining about. But I think the song is kick ass and the new album will be doing us metalheads a service this November.
Exactly, I'm reading all these comments of people whining about the song not being in the style the wanted. And I'm like come on guys, let people enjoy things, nobody actually cares if you don't like a song. In my opinion it's a great song, and if you look at the like/dislike ration you see that like 92% of the other people also does, but if you look at the comments you'd expect something like 5% because the only people commenting are the people that can't get over the fact that bands change over time and that they can't do anything about it.
I wasn't expecting a good album but this album is great. I wasn't expecting another epic metal song from them but they delivered again. "spit out the bone". They already contributed so much to the metal music. They are over 50 years old and they still creating. I have no problem with load and reload. they are great albums. I just enjoy their songs and shows.. It doesn't matter if they changed their style or have short hairs. it's irrelevant. I am just grateful I happened to love Metallica and metal music. They have a big part of my life and my taste of music. I love them for it.

52 year old Metallica fan here. I cannot describe the magic or the feelings we felt when Metallica kicked our asses. Goosebumps is the only word I have. This song comes pretty close. Honestly the only thing that's probably missing is the spark of youth that we had. 🎸
I remember how instantly it dropped in late August, 2016. It was the dead of night in my hometown already and at first I didn’t actually believe what I’ve seen with my eyes, but then I realized that the first single of the then-new Metallica album is here. The rest is history. Today the new album was announced and the first single from it was released in the same fashion. Cheers to Hardwired, greetings to Lux Æterna! Lots of love from Russia
@@RyansShack Saw it first on facebook at their page. At first I thought it was related to the re-issues and books that they were releasing around that time. Once I pressed play I was amazed :D

@@marija.vujkov Have you ever wondered where your soul goes after this life? We are sinners despite any tiny sins we commit like lying, bad thoughts, or cussing. It doesn't even matter how many good deeds we do because one little sin is bad enough already. We cannot make it up to heaven on our own will. Our God, Jesus Christ, decided to come down to Earth as a SINLESS human and sacrificed His life for our sins. Then He resurrected three days later! Therefore if you believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is your Savior, you'll definitely have eternal life. Your existence is proof that God is real. Consider this: A creation like you have a Creator. Only in the Bible does it mention that God is the Creator of mankind. God is the only one who can create your body, your organs, your features, your blood, and fingerprints. That is why nobody has the same finger prints nor DNA as you.

I've been a fan since '85 i got the master album on vinyl. After that i HAD to get Kill 'em all and ride the lightning. I have bought and loved everything since. I'm just a metallifan
I never really got into Metallica because I didn't care for anything after the Black album, so I'd never planned on trying to buy their merch or see them live or listen to them because I thought there would never come a day where they returned to the big four and made thrash great again. If only Anthrax and Slayer follow in their footsteps. 2016 and 2017 need to become the years of reclaiming thrash. Metallica has really done well this time, and I am personally looking forward to their new album now. Vote Metallica 2016, Make Thrash Great Again!

Dude, I don't know what the fuck they want! This song sounds heavy and fast, so what the fuck is wrong about it?! those elitists whine to every great change. Like the latest 2 albums of Whitechapel, they sounded great, but they keep whining Slipknots all Hope Is Gone, I remember a lot of whining about Megadeth's Endgame! The new album by Abbath also got some hate! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THE GREAT ALBUMS?!
In my opinion, this has to be the best song to start with at a show. Hard hitting, fast, and gets the crowd going right from the start! Long live the Metallica family! 🔥🤘🏻
Sound like Metallica with triplets on guitar and double pedal on the Drums: welcome on 2016, and please listen someone like Lamb of God or Gojira for istruction. I Love Metallica, but not now.
Hey, I'm with you man! : D Rockin, aggressive, industrial/thrash music! *thumbs up* I don't get why people are bitching!!! Look at 99.999999% of the GARBAGE out there now!! Let alone what they play on the radio!! LMAO!!
Lars: 'So for this album I was thinking, um, I want the kick drum to move away from the plastic trashcan vibe and sound more like, aaahh, someone flicking a post-it note' Producer: 'Fuck my life' Edit: Damn, people sure are salty over a joke :D
correction on the lars line Lars: "So um, uh, I was thinking for this album, uhh, I want to move away from the um trashcan vibe I guess for a more of uh, flicking post it note kick drum."
More like "so ya man, i was thinking, i'll go away from the trashcan sound and to more of a sound of flicking a post it note on the kick drum, right? eh? check this shit out! check this shit out!
If you didn't realize, this is 80's thrash with better production. So if you expected some new wave of thrash metal here you're screwed. This is Metallica
@Ufuk Sarp Selcok LOL Greg didn't produce Death Magnetic , it was Rick Rubin. Greg was just a sound engineer, he was never involved in mixing. This is fucking miles better than Death Magnetic , in every level. Production is not flat like DM , everything has reverb and a space. But no , you hear drums are loud like black album so it sucks. fuc you man.
Ufuk Sarp Selçok If you didn't like this song , there are 11 songs left for you. Listen to the trailer , parking lot riff is there i think. You will change your mind about production quality. Also if it was the same sound quality as DM , i couldn't have listened to hardwired. My ears bleed during a fast song like my apocalypse with that shitty sound. But I didn't have any sound problems with hardwired. It sounds good.
argh666 You are saying this is more complex and better than Black star by David Bowie? You may not like that type of music but just because to you this sounds better it doesn't mea it's technically better than blackstar.
If this song was released with the kill them all album more than 30 years ago everybody would have been in love with song and no one would have been saying shit
Nope. Honestly for some reason everyone hops on the "urr Load, Reload and Death Magnetic were shit" band wagon but the truth is all of those albums have amazing songs. Like Fuel. Fuel is an amazing song! I literally have no idea why some people don't like that era of their music. It rocks. Everything they do rock, they're fucking Metallica!
Haters, consider this: (1) Metallica hasn't done anything this heavy since the Black album, (2) we're in a teenpop and EDM world of 2016 where metal (or any rock and roll period) is so rare that it's a fucking novelty, (3) James Hetfield is 53 now, and (4) fans always want them to get back to their thrash roots, which I think they did.
Rare? I agree with the other points, but Mr. or Mrs. there are tons of modern metal bands nowadays from death metal to the most experimental subgenres of metal. It's just that they're not as famous or big as for example the big 4. Everybody should just check out new lesser known bands (which often are really good)
Life goes by fast. Das insane also... Please don't get offended by the following message. Here's how u can go 2 heaven. It's no catch & very simple . It's true God doesn't like us to listen to rap/heavy metal/grundge music genres, but if people believe in their hearts 💕 that Jesus Christ is their Savior for their sins, they still go to heaven.
This is actually a cool song. Sounds more like the Black Album with a bit of Death Magnetic thrown in, i will take that. Looking forward to the album now.
I really can't see the black album in this song. Definitely Death magnetic, but not black album. It lacks the groove, monster vocals, etc. Also black album wasn't thrash, this is thrash as fuck. I think this album will be pretty similar to Death Magnetic only with shorter songs and better production overall.
Lars always plays the double bass live. The problem is the crappy RUclips videos that have shitty audio. You should go and see them live. Double bass is always present.
Moto_rider yeah, but they're my age. James has came along way and can actually sing! They don't have to do the speed or death metal anymore. They are FUCKING AWESOME! Then and now. If they want to create great music, be proud. METALLICA is going to be music that's enjoyed long after we're gone. 😄🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Oh I agree man. The whole band has come a long way. But speed and thrash is what they started on, and for people like me, it's what Metallica always represented. I am glad they are moving back to their roots.
It's pretty basic metal riffs. By Metallica standards it's pretty weak. I'm a huge Metallica fan. But this song has the weakest lead solo I've ever heard from a Metallica song. What was that, anyway? Normally their songs have a change of pace, an interlude, a main solo and one or two other solos. But this was pretty much the same riff throughout the entire song, and the shortest, weakest solo I've heard from them. I hope the other songs on the album are better.
+sam mcfly That's the spirit boy,love it,keep that optimism high and fuck these pricks who shits on this band and this song...and you know what? They're all gonna eat their shit in november when this album hits,mark my words. And we're gonna laugh!!
hmm. i mean the song isn't about "lets sit around an blow our fathers while the NWO who pays my bills takes over" an its been predicted for centuries eventually rome turns on itself as it did before

They are but the lyrics are not like Kill Em All, Ride the Lighting or master of puppets And Justice for All. The song is awesome, but there is also not enough anger to sing the lyrics out loud.
@@mowattbigsly2996 it is good to see that not all Americans have been brainwashed by this guy. At least he can't get re elected after this one, hang in there for the next four years 💪
Conerhea II I meant to say that the MoP of this album would be Spit. As in that song is the masterpiece of this album imo and is the most structurally similar.
16 june, gonna go swim next to the concert maybe, too expensive. So instead of 130€ +train ticket (should be around 30€) I just need to pay for the train ticket... Idk tho
METALLICA IS THE BEST....IDC IF THEY HAVE SLOW SONGS, SOFTER, WHATEVER...THEY STILL ROCK ....AND WHENEVER WE WANT A TASTE OF CLIFFS GENIUS , OR THE EARLY SPEED, WE CAN GO BACK IN TIME AND HEAR THE THRASH PIONEERS...YEAH I SAID IT. HARDWIRED IS A SOLID ALBUM..AND THERE IS NOTHING LIKE SEEING THEM LIVE... IVE BEEN A FAN THROUGH THE GOOD,THE BAD,THE UGLY,THE AWESOME, WHATEVER...JUST LIKE FAMILY,YOU DONT HATE THEM IF THEY DO SOMETHING THAT ISNT AS GOOD AS SOMETHING BETTER THEYVE DONE..... BTW NEW SONG IS SIC,CANT WAIT FOR 2023 ALBUM!!
Ehhh thats a bold claim to say Metallica is back. I agree a more aggressive sound can be heard, reminiscing of their older work, but their song writing has lacked significantly. Look at Ride the Lighting (Album), they did some risky shit, and thats what made them great. After "...And Justice for All" they have had a steady decline. I'm glad their making a new album, but I can not fully support the claim that "Metallica is back", because they never were. That being said, they hit some areas in this song where a true fan can sit and go "Yup those were some good times", but I ain't gonna head-bang over it. All of this being said, I will withhold my judgement until I can listen to the whole album.
Exactly, had they written and recorded this same song on Kill Em All, it would have been a classic. But now that they are releasing thrash metal in a time when the elitists metal heads don't consider the band cool anymore....the song is shit.
That's whats fucking shit about this fucking place - objectivity means nothing, language is a murderous whore, and cyclical horrors purport to be novel but are infact a poxy hamster wheel within which we all run not realizing that garden variety objectivity is actually a hoax.
willzer808 For every 1 person that actually dislikes the song for objective reasons, there are 50 that are just doing what's been cool for the last 25 years amoungst the metal community....shit on them for no reason.
giantmidget08 That's a great idea. I wouldn't put it past them to release something like that for their 40th or 50th anniversary or something. That would be cool.
***** Hetfield's voice probably can't get much heavier than this at this point, but Lars did say they took some inspiration from Kill Em All in writing this and it definitely rears through at times.
I really like this couple of videoclips. No story, no script, no actors, no crap. Just the band doing their thing. I prefer that when it comes to rock music videos.
Well said man. Same here.
me too, dark and simple
That's essentially how they did their first video. One.
yep
One is not essential, it is "anti promo video " a fckn piece of art, mixed with a antiwar movie for antiwar lyrics. tvs was so confused, no Hair metal or new romantic but a raw single about War in a moment of cold War, middle orient problema and desert storm was in the air too.

I remember a lot of whining about Megadeth's Endgame!
The new album by Abbath also got some hate!
WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THE GREAT ALBUMS?!

HEY TEACHER! Leave the kids alone
Where? which school?
In my opinion, this has to be the best song to start with at a show. Hard hitting, fast, and gets the crowd going right from the start! Long live the Metallica family! 🔥🤘🏻
This is the best Metallica since 1988. \m/
Good joke hahahaha
Search your feelings - you know this to be true ;)
I agree

This kills the Black Album. That album was the start of their downfall. Watered down bullshit...
Old Metallica is back..!!!!!!!!
yes ❤
fuck yea
oh yeah the guitar solos an back
Sounds like something from ride the lighting or master
i feel that metallica with this new fucking instrumental sound will never back:( the song is awesoom!!! but i'll miss the old sound
wow sounds like old Metallica, I love it
Sound like Metallica with triplets on guitar and double pedal on the Drums: welcome on 2016, and please listen someone like Lamb of God or Gojira for istruction. I Love Metallica, but not now.
sounds like old Metallica? lol
And you must be deaf. Old Metallica? Yes, they are.
You're drunk, go home.
I certainly hear some of the signature old Metallica sound in this
best song since decades. i wish the whole album would have been this way.
34 years later and they still got it!
metallica is back. Can't wait for the album release
Gilbert Gemayel I'm so hyped
The album has already leaked online and it's beyond fucking awesome!
Julian Felton Metallica leaked on Napster. Hell Yeah
welcome metallica
Thrash metal at it's best:
Heavy drum beats
Angry lyrics
Angry voice that doesn't devolve to pure guttural screams
Incredible instrumentalization
Number 4 is the only place where slayer falls short
This is thrash metal at its most boring, you couldn’t find a more ‘metal by numbers’ song.
Me one month later: It's not bad, but TBH, 80's Metallica is far superior
you think they would learn to mix their instruments by now
Hey, I'm with you man! : D Rockin, aggressive, industrial/thrash music! *thumbs up* I don't get why people are bitching!!! Look at 99.999999% of the GARBAGE out there now!! Let alone what they play on the radio!! LMAO!!
You start by listening to one Metallica single... then another... then another. Just one of those days.
or two lol
some people in here are hating on metallica and im just here head banging to this awesome song
Ikr.
Me too ImL!
Hell yeah!
Very well said, this music is for listening, headbanging and having fun, not for fucking hating!
Exactly! If they were true Metallica fans they wouldn't talk all this shit they would just enjoy the music that this amazing band has always created.
I never lost faith in Metallica. Now all that faith paid off. Fucking love this.
the masters are fucking back baby!!!!
Cody Cameron fuck yes they are! And you know the rest of the tracks are gonna be amazing too.
I'll invest in this comment
Metallica releases a new song on my birthday, I'm taking this as a gift from the band!
Happy birthday
+VC Ch9119 thanks dude!
Feliz cumpleaños
same here ^^
mine was the eighth, I thought about the same thing lol
Gotta give the old man drummer serious credit for keeping up
this is a great piece of thrash metal . there is no reason for any complaints here .if you dont like this you never liked metallica at all
That's not true ..
x2. This sounds empty. Maybe it will grow on me, but I doubt it.
Dude, this is nothing alike the first four albums.
This does indeed have a vibe like their old material. Better equipment now perhaps, but the general sound is still there.
I wonder when people will stop living in the past...
Lars:
'So for this album I was thinking, um, I want the kick drum to move away from the plastic trashcan vibe and sound more like, aaahh, someone flicking a post-it note'
Producer: 'Fuck my life'
Edit: Damn, people sure are salty over a joke :D
correction on the lars line
Lars: "So um, uh, I was thinking for this album, uhh, I want to move away from the um trashcan vibe I guess for a more of uh, flicking post it note kick drum."
Sad but true.
More like "so ya man, i was thinking, i'll go away from the trashcan sound and to more of a sound of flicking a post it note on the kick drum, right? eh? check this shit out! check this shit out!
'The riff is a bit, how can I put this.... stock. So I tried to add some paper with the drums'
The kick drum version of the St. Anger snare
If you didn't realize, this is 80's thrash with better production. So if you expected some new wave of thrash metal here you're screwed. This is Metallica
I'm waiting, really, because NWOTM is faaar better in play, speed and violence than any 80's thrash band.
@Ufuk Sarp Selcok LOL Greg didn't produce Death Magnetic , it was Rick Rubin. Greg was just a sound engineer, he was never involved in mixing.
This is fucking miles better than Death Magnetic , in every level. Production is not flat like DM , everything has reverb and a space. But no , you hear drums are loud like black album so it sucks. fuc you man.
Ufuk Sarp Selçok don't you listen to vocals and guitars? They have reverb, it cannot be only my earphones , right?
Ufuk Sarp Selçok If you didn't like this song , there are 11 songs left for you. Listen to the trailer , parking lot riff is there i think. You will change your mind about production quality.
Also if it was the same sound quality as DM , i couldn't have listened to hardwired. My ears bleed during a fast song like my apocalypse with that shitty sound. But I didn't have any sound problems with hardwired. It sounds good.
Amen brother
holy hell it's been one hot minute since this record came out. I remember being waiting to get back from work to see the videos I missed.
Welcome back Metallica. Please DO NOT GO BACK TO POP MUSIC. PLEASE
When TF were they ever pop?
Andy Do you remember that crap album "St. Anger". To me that was the worst album Metallica has ever done.
it still wasn't pop
Anže Benko it sounded like garbage that is what I am saying.
Anže Benko In other words, Metallica lost their mojo and now they are back.
So glad this was one of the nominations for best rock song for the Grammys
Christian Erickson b-but this is thrash metal
Alif Azmi And I still don't understand why they weren't under beat metal performance
Mohammad Hamza Ahmad just found out that Metallica is performing with lady Gaga... fuck my life
truly it is a rock song and not a metal song listen to the drums especially are punkish sounding
argh666 You are saying this is more complex and better than Black star by David Bowie? You may not like that type of music but just because to you this sounds better it doesn't mea it's technically better than blackstar.
This record is Awesome !! The perfect match of the thrash with their melodic stuff. This brutal. Best record since Black.
If this song was released with the kill them all album more than 30 years ago everybody would have been in love with song and no one would have been saying shit
exactly.
no, if you gave this song to the metallica of the kill them all definition they would spit on it
BS dude. James did not sing back then, and Kirk played actual solos. This song would have never made it on Kill
I don't think Mustaine would write a riff this simple.
No.
Is the REAL Metallica back? I say yes.
They never left lol
Yes they did...
Nope. Honestly for some reason everyone hops on the "urr Load, Reload and Death Magnetic were shit" band wagon but the truth is all of those albums have amazing songs. Like Fuel. Fuel is an amazing song! I literally have no idea why some people don't like that era of their music. It rocks. Everything they do rock, they're fucking Metallica!
where? Because they made Load, Reload, ST-Anger, DM by the time you were living under that rock called DENIAL.
who are u to say something
Haters, consider this: (1) Metallica hasn't done anything this heavy since the Black album, (2) we're in a teenpop and EDM world of 2016 where metal (or any rock and roll period) is so rare that it's a fucking novelty, (3) James Hetfield is 53 now, and (4) fans always want them to get back to their thrash roots, which I think they did.
Rare? I agree with the other points, but Mr. or Mrs. there are tons of modern metal bands nowadays from death metal to the most experimental subgenres of metal. It's just that they're not as famous or big as for example the big 4. Everybody should just check out new lesser known bands (which often are really good)
Yeah? Well why are they still this bad?
Metal is rare? Lol
Prodigy OG I'd say 1975-2005 is when metal was a big thing. There's no modern young bands that are popular who do music like this anymore.
I completely agree with this there hasn't really been anything good since 05
This metal , this is fast, this is insane, This is METALLICA
Life goes by fast. Das insane also...
Please don't get offended by the following message.
Here's how u can go 2 heaven. It's no catch & very simple .
It's true God doesn't like us to listen to rap/heavy metal/grundge music genres, but if people believe in their hearts 💕 that Jesus Christ is their Savior for their sins, they still go to heaven.
Happy 2 years Hardwired!!
Now it's happy 3 years
Lars Ulrich + strobe lighting = genuine concern as to whether he's having a seizure.
He always is, actually. Case closed.
He probably is.
*_He's probably trying to hide his lack of hair_*
If he was having a seizure then the drums would've sounded like St. Anger.
No. I think he just hides his hair...
This is actually a cool song.
Sounds more like the Black Album with a bit of Death Magnetic thrown in, i will take that. Looking forward to the album now.
Omg a fan who actually likes this song. I thought I was the only one
+metalfan you're not the only one, I think its fucking awesome
That's what they were going for!
they told in the interviews this album was like the black album but in steroid
I really can't see the black album in this song. Definitely Death magnetic, but not black album. It lacks the groove, monster vocals, etc. Also black album wasn't thrash, this is thrash as fuck. I think this album will be pretty similar to Death Magnetic only with shorter songs and better production overall.
We need more songs like that from metallica
double bass sounds awesome, i hope lars do it like this live lol
Lars always plays the double bass live. The problem is the crappy RUclips videos that have shitty audio. You should go and see them live. Double bass is always present.
well i ve never seen them live, i hope i get this chance someday, and i hope youre right :)
Zinga Yoyo
No need for hoping. Trashing Lars is just trolling and trolls are very aware of that. Lars is a top-notch drummer.
alright lol
wtf??? ure okay ive just agreed with u lol
That is like old-school Metallica. SWEET.
the masters are back my friend
+Sebastian Salinas another Nirvana fan, finally found you, bro xD

dude the song is so simple. Just because it's aggressive don't mean it's good
+Joel Vuorisalmi pssssst, better get away!
Now this is starting to sound like the Metallica I fucking know and love. FASTER! HARDER! LOUDER!!!!
Moto_rider yeah, but they're my age. James has came along way and can actually sing! They don't have to do the speed or death metal anymore. They are FUCKING AWESOME! Then and now. If they want to create great music, be proud. METALLICA is going to be music that's enjoyed long after we're gone. 😄🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Oh I agree man. The whole band has come a long way. But speed and thrash is what they started on, and for people like me, it's what Metallica always represented. I am glad they are moving back to their roots.
And you get the win in my opinion fine sir!
Thank you sir! :D

Fuck the haters, this is awesome
AWESOME?????????

Fuck'em all :v ok no xD
It's pretty basic metal riffs. By Metallica standards it's pretty weak. I'm a huge Metallica fan. But this song has the weakest lead solo I've ever heard from a Metallica song. What was that, anyway? Normally their songs have a change of pace, an interlude, a main solo and one or two other solos. But this was pretty much the same riff throughout the entire song, and the shortest, weakest solo I've heard from them. I hope the other songs on the album are better.

Than you for these lyrics; they are fucking awful. Metallica are nu metal
If “Kill em all” and “...And Justice for All” had a baby........
It’s good but, to short!
Bro black and master
Cierto!
Yo tambien lo pense desde los primeros 10 segundos!
what about master of puppets?
But i can hear the bass
I'm late to the party, but I did NOT expect this out of Metallica as late as 2016 what a fucking solid return to their youths. Fucking metal on guys
I get a kill em all feeling
Makes me SO excited. They're back into that original groove. Quick, loud and angry.
They are but the lyrics are not like Kill Em All, Ride the Lighting or master of puppets And Justice for All. The song is awesome, but there is also not enough anger to sing the lyrics out loud.
plus tone they need there old tone
Metal Militia is the same for me ;)
Exactly!!
HOLY FUCK THIS THE METALLICA I GREW UP ON - WELCOME BACK
no
+spyros ziakas No.....80's, actually.
OH FUCK YESSSSS
First impression is that its thrashy. Where you going to find music like that today.
Agree!
OMG they are so back!!!!
Yeah
hell yeah that's what I said METALLICA is back this song reminds me of their old shit!! I love it.
Ikr I can't stand the hate in the comments though
METALLICA FOR LIFE!
Theme song of the 2024 election
It came out right before the 2016 election as well
Theme song of the next four years….at least.
TY. The chorus is exactly what I texted to friends & loved ones on election night. Because they were the same words that erupted out of me as well. 🤬

It ain't no master of puppets but it's thrash and I love it
The best possible description
Yep. The Master of Puppets would be Spit out the Bone actually.
Conerhea II I meant to say that the MoP of this album would be Spit. As in that song is the masterpiece of this album imo and is the most structurally similar.
@@kirbysucks5001 and atlas rise
No it’s not Master of Puppets. Master of Puppets was released in 1986. Move on.
This is true modern age metallica .. id sell a kidney for a concert right now
Ive just bought the tickets. And yes, I had to sold my kidney 😬
I paid 232 for unforgiven package

16 june, gonna go swim next to the concert maybe, too expensive. So instead of 130€ +train ticket (should be around 30€) I just need to pay for the train ticket... Idk tho
No matter what Metallica makes the fans will never be happy.

i think this song will be longer on the album
+Caio van Eyken wow what a funny joke. havent heard that one yet
Ehhh thats a bold claim to say Metallica is back. I agree a more aggressive sound can be heard, reminiscing of their older work, but their song writing has lacked significantly. Look at Ride the Lighting (Album), they did some risky shit, and thats what made them great. After "...And Justice for All" they have had a steady decline. I'm glad their making a new album, but I can not fully support the claim that "Metallica is back", because they never were. That being said, they hit some areas in this song where a true fan can sit and go "Yup those were some good times", but I ain't gonna head-bang over it. All of this being said, I will withhold my judgement until I can listen to the whole album.
Fits in kill em all album ... Old school is coming back ;)
Exactly, had they written and recorded this same song on Kill Em All, it would have been a classic. But now that they are releasing thrash metal in a time when the elitists metal heads don't consider the band cool anymore....the song is shit.
That's whats fucking shit about this fucking place - objectivity means nothing, language is a murderous whore, and cyclical horrors purport to be novel but are infact a poxy hamster wheel within which we all run not realizing that garden variety objectivity is actually a hoax.
willzer808 For every 1 person that actually dislikes the song for objective reasons, there are 50 that are just doing what's been cool for the last 25 years amoungst the metal community....shit on them for no reason.
giantmidget08 That's a great idea. I wouldn't put it past them to release something like that for their 40th or 50th anniversary or something. That would be cool.
***** Hetfield's voice probably can't get much heavier than this at this point, but Lars did say they took some inspiration from Kill Em All in writing this and it definitely rears through at times.
This song becomes more and more relevant as time goes on. Anyone I watch the news or reading about politicians these lyrics just pop in my head lol
Nice to see Metallica thrashing again
yeah brooo ahahaha its like nothing changed !!! ahaha
