Could you explain how the album changed your life? With exception of Seek And Destroy, The Four Horsemen, and I guess a toss up of Whiplash and Jump In The Fire……. I’m not a big fan of this album. I’m not arguing, I’m just trying to understand what I must be missing. Tons of Metallica fans view this album as one of the best, but to me it’s the absolute worst. And in all fairness it should have been their worst seeing how it was their first!!!!
@@MrSlowpoke-jn9lv that would be easy to explain. I never said it was even remotely close to their best album. I was 13 years old and didn't really know thrash music and it introduced me to a whole new genre. Hence this album literally changed my life since I started playing guitar joined metal bands and played thrash music for the last 35 years but cheers bro didn't mean to offend you have a good time listening to music.
Mine too, that is when I became a Metallica fan, Whiplash is my favorite song, and considering how much I love Sanitarium (welcome home), Damage Inc. Blackened, and pretty much every song before The Load album, that is saying something.
I'm actually amazed by the quality considering it's from 1983. This is early, young, raw Metallica. They were still wet behind the ears here. You can tell that James hadn't found his voice yet. Still a great song from an epic album though.
What you said about the work and energy, is exactly what the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra said when they did the S&M concert. (Symphony & Metallica)
My god were they young!! This seems to be when they play Lamore in Brooklyn. They just brought raw energy back then. I saw them the first time in 86 when they opened for ozzy.
I believe this was filmed on the "Kill 'em all" tour in late 1983, just as the 1st album came out on their then-manager Johnny Zazula's Megaforce Records. The band members were around 20 -21 years of age and lead guitarist Kirk Hammett had joined Metallica a few months earlier... Meanwhile, somewhere in L.A, former lead guitarist Dave Mustaine was putting Megadeth together... It was a very pivotal time for metal - bands were getting faster and more aggressive w/ UK bands like Motorhead, Venom, Raven... Canadian bands like Anvil, Exciter... Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Saxon, were breaking big commercially... Accept from W. Germany was rising fast... Then u had the American bands that took it to the next level - Anthrax and Manowar were signed to Megaforce w/ Metallica by Johnny Z, who also signed Overkill ... Brian Slagel (who had released Metallica's first demo) Metal Blade Records on the West Coast signed Slayer ... Exodus (Kirk Hammett's former band) signed to Torrid Records, but their debut album 'Bonded by blood' was delayed until 1985... Metal Church from Seattle debuted in 1984... same year as Voivod from Canada. Exciting times for metal! 🤘🤘
I do believe this is from the L'Amour show in Brooklyn. I was at this show. Had no idea who they were. But I went out and bought Kill Em All the next day at Slipped Disc Records in Valley Stream.
Straight out of the garage, when they still had hair lmao! They were in the underground circuit and blew our minds. They started the head-banging movement. I went home with serious neck pain after their concerts. ha!
Well.. been a fan since before killem all was even released.. in my teens I had a 1st edition copy of the whiplash single on vinyl, the neckbreak remix, on a green vinyl with the 1st cover they only released on the 1st 200 megaforce label.. looked it up.. worth 2 g's now. Aaaannnddd of course I lost it about 1t years ago. Whaaaaaaaa!!!
Long before they sold their souls to Warner Brothers and got in league with Bob Rock. Producer Bob Rock turns hard rock and metal bands into radio friendly pop bands.
Oh I wish you would have done a later video of this when they had better equipment and sound quality. This song epitomizes what a metal concert is to be like. And those words ring true still- we’ll never stop we’ll never quit cuz we’re Metallica! And they haven’t quit yet!
We weren’t pansies back then! If we did something stupid like banging our heads against the stage we took responsibility lol. Not like today where you blame everyone else! Great reaction.
I like their performance of Whiplash in Seattle 1989 better, even though I really love Cliff and his playing James clearly lost his voice here and I really loved when Jason sang a verse of whiplash, so Seattle wins. For whatever reason they had even more energy in Seattle than here although they were older and Whiplash at Seattle was their last song they played. This is still cool but Seattles version is better.
@@nextrackter1519 you mean the last song they played at Seattle '89 was AJFA? they ended their show with Breadfan actually. They still played 7 songs after ajfa.
Keep up the early shows. Obviously some issues lmao, they are kids. But the raw talent you’ll see is great. Do some in 86 before cliff died. Hard to find good quality ones but the guitar skill was unmatched. It was so good
One of the best from them... But if you do the studio version the speed of the song and the impact is 10x even more in your face... Wrg versión due the sound
I love Metallica! Oh brother, i know you love some drums and you have gave Zeppelin great reactions. Check out Moby Dick live by them, if you haven’t yet.
that is a young Metallica. But honestly i cant name a bad song on their first 5 albums. after that they went downhill.now they are old rich dudes and dont have that teenage angst
5:07 Hey!, people of that time analyzed the lyrics of music better and there was no need to explain if it was spoken figuratively or not. Not like now, if someone says jump into that well and stay alive, and they don't like it, they sue you for inducing them to do something they "didn't want to". Remember it was at the beginning of the 80's
I love Metallica and still one of my favourite bands live but I just don’t like watching live recordings. In my opinion it is best to check out official videos or straight album tracks/lyric videos as your intro to this stuff... then when you go to a show you can just bang your head and sing along while the energy takes over. Just can’t capture that energy on video. Anyway... no one asked... sorry. I think my neck is still messed up from the first time I saw them in 1989 when I was 16 years old!! No joke.
CLIFF BURTON!!!!!!! Thank you for giving my favorite Metallica member some love. And dude I know exactly what you mean by the Baptist church drumming. I’ve been saying this to other people. You’re the second RUclipsr I’ve seen to point this out. This is why I love the song The Shortest Straw. Listen to it. Here’s a good live version: ruclips.net/video/SEY9D8nyu8Y/видео.html Listen to the album version too, it comes from And Justice For All, (the first album after Cliffs passing 😢): ruclips.net/video/7pe14e1aJvo/видео.html
Be ready for this premiere friday, its gonna be a banger . React to it live when it drops if u want. Ez Mil × Michael Bars - Victorious ruclips.net/video/Ss-5G3PNJWc/видео.html
@@matthewserros5680 Metallica has continued to develop and in a positive way. Unfortunately, this cannot be explained to the eternal yesterday. That's why Metallica still fills stadiums and Slayer plays at retiree events. In a nutshell. Everything was better in the past, it's not my motto in life.
Pre1983 Whiplash = A neck injury... Metallica redefined it. .... Post1983 Whiplash = 😂 The Holy Spirit done took hold of your butt up in a baptist church 😂

"We'll never stop, we'll never quit cause we're Metallica!" They're still going almost 40 years later.
they said it and they fulfilled it
Just remember....they're on average like 19 years old here I think!!! Amazing.
20 - 21 in 1983... Cliff Burton was 24 when he died in 1986 😷
This album literally changed my life in 1983.

I was more moved by Master. It was my introduction to Metallica.

The beginning of this clip is the tail end of Cliff's "Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth)" solo from this set
Classic Thrash Metal: This is one of the original Mosh Pit songs. Check out Exodus- The Toxic Waltz, a song for thrashing, that’s about thrashing.
5:20 - Back in the 80's and 90's, if the show was going off right, the blood did flow.
Now you have seen the master Cliff Burton on bass guitar.... RIP....💖
Another BANGER! Kill Em All is my favourite album! Enjoy! 🤘🏻🇨🇦
While this live version is quite energetic, you should listen to the studio version too. James is much more audible and it just overall sounds better.
The crowd snatched kirks guitar out of his hands that concert and A roadie jumped in to get it back lmao it’s on video you should check it out!
And you can see Kirk dying inside as this happens. Iconic moment.
That started greatness that still churns today!!!
I'm 45 and I can still headbang & spin my hair! Dedication to metal, baby!!!🤘🤘🤣
Thanks, and Happy Father's Day to all
Father's with no judgment at all!

Did you have Sirens and Dungeons are Calling back then? What about Trouble? I remember that shit hitting so hard. Those early records still hold up!
Awesome reaction Still have it on cassette . Been fan since 84
Crazy that I started grade school 1 year later 3 blocks from this venue
Took me back to my childhood
Metallica: Breadfan & Am I Evil
Metallica's first album kicks so much ass!!!!!
The best live version of Whiplash by far is live in Seattle 1989. You have to check it out!

That is the root of thrash music
Long before they sold their souls to Warner Brothers and got in league with Bob Rock. Producer Bob Rock turns hard rock and metal bands into radio friendly pop bands.
This is what they looked like in 83’ when I saw them for the first time
the lyrics from the second verse is from a fan head banging so hard he busted his head on the stage
you have to see Bad Brains live at CBGBs 1982
You should do the whole Killem All album, hell go ahead and do first three albums
Oh I wish you would have done a later video of this when they had better equipment and sound quality. This song epitomizes what a metal concert is to be like. And those words ring true still- we’ll never stop we’ll never quit cuz we’re Metallica! And they haven’t quit yet!
This is METAL!!!
This is the song that popped my Thrash cherry. 🤣🤣🤣
Lars is the drummer!!! Best in my lifetime!
Before I was saved we heard this and Masculinity ran wayyyyyy. Out of control.
This way the Thrash anthem.
80's was wild.
Dam this must of been really early 80's. They look like there about 17 years old.
OMG it's CLIFF in this video!!!
We weren’t pansies back then! If we did something stupid like banging our heads against the stage we took responsibility lol. Not like today where you blame everyone else! Great reaction.
yesssssss
Hahahaha Lars took us to church
This was them debiut single!!
Fan's fact: The beginning was the final part of Cliff's BASS SOLO ("Anesthesia"), then the real song "Whiplash" kicks
Cliff was an Animal.
LFR family, don't get whiplash by headbanging!!! Lol
Man I really need you to check out SABATON- SCREAMING EAGLES. So glad you been checking out more Metallica!
Pretty sure this is from the Cliff 'em All video.. Had that on VHS waaay back in the day.

the title track of the justice album was the last song on their set piece for that show
@@nextrackter1519 you mean the last song they played at Seattle '89 was AJFA? they ended their show with Breadfan actually. They still played 7 songs after ajfa.
Watching cliff embarrass Kirk and James on bass haha
you need to do Snarky Puppy - Lingus. it'll blow you away!
Keep up the early shows. Obviously some issues lmao, they are kids. But the raw talent you’ll see is great. Do some in 86 before cliff died. Hard to find good quality ones but the guitar skill was unmatched. It was so good
Awesome as always!.. Now listen to Tesla, "What You Give".. Its right up your ally!. Hit that thaaangg!
One of the best from them... But if you do the studio version the speed of the song and the impact is 10x even more in your face... Wrg versión due the sound
You should check out all of Cliff Burton's bass solos. Magnifico! And by the way. Love the Richard Pryor pic. Im a Redd Foxx fan myself.
They go harder on the actual album...
Now that you have watched this you should watch the Seattle 1989 version :)
Time for the “Horsemen” !!!
