Lost In Vegas thank y'all for the quality content!
Youse should listen to creeping death next
Hails
Do Hail to the King by Avenged Sevenfold
they were like 21 when they made this... wtf am i doing with my life
Yeah, its wild realizing that they were freaking babies making their classic albums. I was getting wasted in college, puking up Chinese food. 🤦🏾♀️
Same
Learn an instrument and start a band. Who knows what you might create
Fuckin masterpiece
@@SimonB. I tried. Haven't seen an insect at the house ever since..
No, the song isn't from the 90's my friends, it's from 1984.
Thank you for that, I noticed it as well.
They finna shit themselves when they figure that out XD
One of my fave songs by them. Been listening to them since I was 10 and im 37 now 😂😂
How times fly, bro
The year of my birth. This song actually pushed me out of my ma'.
When they're completely speechless and the ending solo hasn't even begun yet. Me : "Just wait"
Song: "this isn't even my final form"
Definitely mate.. it's final form for me is that live Seattle version with Kirk on that black Les Paul I've wanted my whole life lol
metallica : "hold my chorus"
Me too! I'm like " Wait! Here comes the best part!" Yelling at my screen! Lol
the ending is the best musical piece in the history of music.....i believe this with all my heart
Fade to Black is their masterpiece imo. If there ever was a legitimate reason to rank Ride the Lightning over Master of Puppets, it's this song.
For me it's RTL vs. AJFA for best album lol
Ride the Lightning, Creeping Death, Fade to Black is their best three songs period. Imo.
Never thought about it that way before. I agree, cheers from Saskatchewan 🍻
Hell yes...but then One makes a good case for AJFA.
@@Ormagoden94 F-A-D-E T-O B-L-A-C-K. Better? 😆
Ride the Lightning album was released in 1984...
Yes, it does not sond typical for the time, but this is the 80s !
Give them a break, they dont know about metallica
A timeless classic... my first Metal album ever and the key to a wonderful music journey which is still going on.
Stefan Studer you and me both brother. Started with Metallica and SOAD... Now I've gone to countless death metal shows and moshed, stage dived, and crowd surfed at all of them. The journey never ends.... let it take
I was laughing at their comments about Metallica having "special access". That didn't really happen until the "Black Album". When they recorded Ride the Lightning they were still pretty much broke nobodies. Still a classic though and the one time I saw Metallica in concert they opened with Creeping Death.
Lots of people do reaction these days. The difference between you and others is that you can judge music so well. Congrats!
These guys and King KTF are the only ones that actually understand the music.
Truth!!!!!
Blue Jay C.O.B. No life sha is hilarious
@@number2and3 these guys understand the music more technically...but no life shaq feels the music and enjoys them so well xD
most reactors just look at the screen emotionless and fake reacting the whole song and say nothing interesting about the song afterwards
Cliff Burton was one of the best bass players in the world.
Rest in Peace Cliff. 😊
Best musicians also
He is the best in history he's an icon
@@seifbensalah4574 Justin Chancellor is the best imo. No disrespect to Cliff though. Man was a legend.
Riff In Peace
richard dimeck rust in peace
1984. That's the year this song came out, with their second album, "Ride The Lightning". The singer James Hetfield wrote this when the band's equipment was stolen one day and among the stolen goods was an amplifier that belonged to him. It was a very special one, because his mother gave it to him as a last present before she died of cancer. He got so sad and depressed that he wrote this song.
MrMetallidude wow,; i didn’t know the story. how incredibly sad.
This song popped in my head right before my dad past away from cancer
i'm pretty sure his mother passed away in 1995/96, which inspired the song Mama Said
His mother died in 1979, when he was 16 years old, which was two years before he and Lars formed Metallica. His father, on the other hand, was the one who died in late 1996.
Both didn't treat their illness I believe due to religious beliefs
In the 90s I was a teenager struggling with depression and suicide. The music you guys are reviewing is the music that kept me alive. That’s the truth.
Wow! Thanks for sharing this Powerful Story with us. It gives hope. Best for your future friend.
Glad to hear that their music was able to help you. Metallica is so much more than just a band to many people, myself included. Have a great day! :)
The black album saved my life. I was strung out...and then this hit. The world seamed acceptable. The music gave me strength to deal without the drugs.
Metallica for Life!!!
For Real!!!
@stavros man ofc... whenever there is somebody talking about metallica, either slayer or megadeth fan comes and shits on metallica
@stavros man So now you are saying metallica is pop? Please tell me that they are not thrash anymore xD I like some slayer songs too but hate elitist fans
That opening riff! Nearly 30 years later it still sends chills up my spine.
Facts bro
1 - 12 - 24
You are 100% correct
This song saved my life back in 1984. It let me know I wasn’t alone. For that, I’ll forever be grateful to Metallica
hope you are well, now, friend. no shame in stumbling, we're all gonna be happy when you you get back up again!
They've saved my life countless times!
1 - 12 - 24
Amen
"I wrote the song at a friend's house in New Jersey. I was pretty depressed at the time because our gear had just been stolen, and we had been thrown out of our manager's house for breaking shit and drinking his liquor cabinet dry. It's a suicide song, and we got a lot of flak for it, as if kids were killing themselves because of the song. But we also got hundreds of letters from kids telling us how they related to the song and that it made them feel better."
shb who are u bud? Love this song.
Jeff Seiber I think that might be a James Hetfield quote, but I’m not sure.
At least they combined it into a dramatic literary sense (though not quite as much as For Whom the Bell Tolls or Call of Ktulu). Still gives me chills
Chocolate Milk yup that is infact a James Hetfield quote
Daniel Campuzano ok thx
The Mike Tyson in a tutu analogy is fitting.
Ikmel A.A.A. “It’s beautiful, but he’ll still f you up”. Perfect analogy for this band.
"now let me finish this pirouette"
Sorta. Metallica has plenty of slower songs.
Last year, a 15yr old of me was struggling with depression and suicidal tendencies, my family didn't know anything about that, but Metallica and God saved me from myself
So glad to have you still here my brother!
to bad god isnt real so cant save nothing what u do in life u do
Miguel, I hope you are still listening! To both! Hugs & prayers.❤🙏🙏🙏
"Growing darkness taking dawn, I was me but now he's gone". How could you not react to that? It's one of the most beautiful lines written in metal history 🤷♂️
@Mark Hammond Everyone's opinions change over time. Thats exactly what the line is.
@@wulffy54914 i always thought the line was the descent into depression/madness
@Mark Hammond I always have this awkward feeling when people ask me what line or part of the song that sticks out to you because nine times out of ten they're expecting you to pick the part that impressed them the most lol.
@@pierreo33 that's because your right. The song is about a dude who really depressed and contemplating suicide . " I was me, but now he's gone" is basically saying that he was his normal self till someone in his life died, then he becomes depressed. Your right wulffy is wrong.
@@corban.b789 Please understand, that is your interpretation and yours alone. That line/this song resonates very differently to me. There is no right and wrong in the appreciation of music as it is so personal to each of us.
Found you guys because of Eminem, stayed because of Metallica and Dolly Parton. WTF IS THIS CHANNEL, I LOVE IT.
Joe Norton like I said these guys are unbiased and they have great commentary love watching as a metal head god bless em🤘🤘🤘🤘
Just found this channel last night. Binge watching. Love it...
There's nothing like hearing Fade to Black for the first time. I still get goosebumps when I hear this song 30 years later.
I was just thinking the exact same thing. Been listening to this song since it came up and I still get goosebumps. All time song
Imagine being a 13 year old angsty kid when this came out. Holy s I think my hair grew to my shoulders the first time I heard this album. The young ladies weren’t very impressed with my extensive Metallica t-shirt collection, unfortunately. Lol
same
amen,brother
Same here
That was me at 13 now just turned 50 2021 and it still blows me away
The Mike Tyson:Ballerina analogy is so spot on!!
90's? 1984 boys !!
What's crazy is this album is over 30 years old
Brad B 34 years old yesterday
Yea second Metallica album, 1984. This guys were kids when they created this! Incredible!
Shit 34 years still my favorite metallica album!🤘😈🤘
This song has an instrumental chorus, which is quite rare, and very unique during that era of metal.
This was Metallica's second album, and they did not have any special access to studios or w/e. It sounds so amazing, because of their amazing inspirations.
I was thinking the same exact thing. Nothing on this album made it to the radio's until a few years after it was made. Even Puppets was still done on a budget
Of course they had access to studios, how do you think they recorded the album?
@@LAFC. Do you understand what "special access" means? They had zero advantages over other bands and they were pretty much poor. All of theur success was due to their amazing talent and inspiration.
@@orestispalampougioukis6043 Bro all bands start like that lmao You are acting like you need to be rich to start a successful band. All bands started broke as hell in a garage.
@@LAFC. he is just pointing that out because in the video they said they had access to the best engineers and equipment but they didn't there engineer didn't even know who they were and they were staying in a apartment lars friend let them borrow
RIP Cliff Burton. Takes me way back. Nice reaction!
Best bass player ever...
He would have had no problem playing Jazz.
He wasnt the best ... but what made him great was his passion when he played and you heard it
Fuckin a brother!!
Metallica - Sanitarium (welcome home)
RogueEagle welcome home (sanitarium)
Song actually got me out minor depression
This is my favorite metallica song
Great suggestion. IMO this is part of the trio with Fade to Black and One, the three great Metallica ballads. Need to hear that last one!
...let me be
This is the first Ballad they did. It really showed their range as a band.
Just... one of the best ballads ever recored... no biggie.
Absolutely one of the best, but I never really considered this a ballad. When I think of ballads, I thing of Tesla’s Love Song and too many to count. Whatever it’s called it is amazing!
That song is a masterpiece.
For whom the bell tolls! You should check that one out.
Andrew Frank
Love it! Absolutely!
And the most amazing thing is that these guys were like 20 when they wrote this.
I. Flores when your lead guitarist was a student of Joe Satriani, great things happen
Dan Theautoman Joe is a legend
Blows my mind Every time i think about it.
Idk why that guitar solo always gives me chills literally i get goosebumps when i hear it idk why but it feels so beautifully executed i feel like they are playing their ass off like they are playing their final song ever.
I think it’s my favorite guitar solo ever.. or at least top 5, the rhythm guitar with the same riff in the background adds to the ambiance, it’s genuinely special
Love you guys and fade to Black will be played at my funeral... It's already in the paperwork!!!
Way to 'go' man 😂
Too bad you won't be there to enjoy it.
Mine too lol
I would want wherever I May Roam..
Popo that’s awesome!!
One of the best Metallica songs .. Lyrics riffs .. bass .. drums .. vocal .. solos .. melodies .. tempo ..
Just perfect..
under the top 5 in history of metal... and their best one...
It’s amazing, especially at the end.
Welcome Home (Sanitarium) is a must watch for you guys. One of my favorite Metallica songs. BTW this song was made in like 1983!!!
This song helped me when I was 12 and my sadness was leading me towards something. 28 yrs later I'm still here. It's because of people like you 2 dudes that I'm glad I've stuck around this long.
Metallica is one of those legends that are all by themselves. There is nobody else like them.
Even better, they’re still together. Still writing music. Still touring. Such great chemistry within the band that I’m sure most of us will be able to fully realize
@@CraftsmanQuad19and still producing 😉
Song is 35 years old and the solo still gives me chills EVERYTIME!! Definitely one of kirks best!
Joshua cole so good at such a young age too
Chills lvl 100.
You guys love the instruments you really should check out "Orion" or even "call of ktulu" orbetter yet a full album review of master of puppets!!!!!
Edward Stoneking agreed
So much this. Orion is a god damn roller coaster of emotions if you really listen through.
Full album review definitely or be surprised by their baby faced album "Kill'em All"
I've been suggesting Orion for as long as I can remember now, I hope they do it
Edward Stoneking Instrumentals of metallica is same and boring.
The thing that always impressed me about Metallica is how many different riffs and beats they can fit into one song and how seamless they transition between them. Always complex songs that take immense talent to write and play.
It becoz of lars... he may not be the best drummer. But his vision on what the song should be and his direct on arrangement.😊😊😊
@@Billy_Almighty does he do a lot of the arrangements? I didn't know that.
@@HELL0NESSA just wached documentary about metaalica.. james said that lars has the vision of the song and how it is done.
You probably don't listen to this kinda music, but checkout Sinister's "Cross the Styx". The way they squeeze everything out of riffs is something to behold. The cyclical song structure and reiterating themes among other things is insane.
Other bands can sort of do that too, but with Metallica they can make it all seem like one coherent whole. With other bands it seems more like different song parts smoothly transitioning into each other, but with this band its like you're still in the same musical journey.
They need to do either
Disposible Heroes
or
Harvester Of Sorrow
Disposable first that’s my favorite
Disposable heroes
Creeping death.
It's the master of puppets for this album
Creeping Death is the best song Metallica has ever written.
Rangam Sarmah I've been begging them to do that song. My favorite Metallica song of all time lol
TamdarionD I don't know dude, that songs great but I think One, Call of Kthulu, and Master are in my top 5 before CD
Yiorgios Vazouras true, actually your preference is also mine, but I feel creeping death, that he'll of a song, needs more recognition
Greatest bible song ever written
Ride the lightning was released 34 years ago today!
(via metallica instagram)
Selenab ts that's confirmed
Yes
You guys should listen to welcome home sanitarium.
1984 dude, back in my teenage years when nobody else but metalheads knew who Metallica was, when all us metalheads felt like we were in on some awesome secret that the rest of the world wasn't hip to, "And justice for all" and the song "One" brought Metallica into the mainstream and a lot of fans felt betrayed that Metallica sold out to the corporate world, myself I felt like the world had finally caught up with Metallica and the musical tastes of people began in the 90s to become less of a group mentality, less putting music into neat little boxes of genres, I personally thank Run DMC and Aerosmith for their huge step in the 80s that broke the glass ceiling
Disposable Heroes needs to happen !!!
They are not ready for it... Yet
My favorite Metallica song
Such a fucking crushing song
This is the Comfortably Numb of Metal.
ive always said this. got pretty much the same structure
Never thought about that, but that is pretty damn accurate
Yeah that’s actually super accurate. Great description
Never thought to compare the two but they are actually really similar! Makes sense cause they’re my fav song from the two bands
Best description ever.
This music is iconic not just because of the raw sound but because of the storyline imprinted in the song. The balance between melodic and metal is one of the most brilliant i have ever heard. I can't imagine what it is being depressed at the point of suicide, but this music was able to show me the rollercoster that people can achieve when they get to this point in life. The hole time we can SEE and FEEL the struggle and the end is the culmination of an end long desired.
Knowing the background of the music, why was it made or how James was feeling at that time just brings even more feels and emotions.
Great song from one of the best albuns ever made. 'Tallica Rulez!!
“Orion” by Metallica.
^This🔥
@@ZekeMan62 they already did it
@@big12informer86
Just watched it. Thank you my friend.
CREEEEEPING DEAAATHHH - METALLICAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
U guys will LOOVEEE the breakdown
Mr. Miyagi totally agree! Such an awesome song!
Mr. Miyagi the seattle '89 version tho, with the crowd screaming "DIE" in the background haha
That song got me in to metal and haven’t looked back since then, and that was for me 19 years:) those break downs hook me for life.
This is, hands down, one of my absolute favorite songs from them. This got me through so many dark times in my teenage years. If I was feeling like I wanted to hurt myself, this song went on, I’d pick up my guitar and just go. By the time it was over, I’d be ok. This song has so much emotion and meaning to me wrapped up into it than it just being “some song”.
It was made in 1984 and Metallica back then didn’t have access to the best of the best. This was only their second album and it would be another few years before they hit the big time. The reason it’s so polished and clean sounding is mainly because Lars and James are, or at least were back then, absolute perfectionists. Everything had to be perfect and done exactly right and sounding amazing or they did it over. This was True from the playing, to the recording to the mixing and mastering.
BTW, when this album was written and recorded, James and Lars were around 20. Let that sink in....they were 20 years old and writing and performing at that level. It’s mind boggling...
Thank you so much for doing this song, it’s saved my life on multiple occasions....
Just wanted to take this quick, random moment to say that I'm glad you made it through it all. And, to say Thank You for sharing your soul.
Krieger Koenig I really, truly appreciate that, thank you.
I’m 44 now, have a wonderful wife I’ve been married to for 23 years and have a 21 year old daughter. While it all hasn’t been smooth sailing, I’m extremely grateful I made it through those darker years and came out the other side. Metallica was a huge part of that happening and in January of 2009 I actually got to tell them that in person on the Death Magnetic tour.
Think '80's babies!!
Hell to the yeah.
This album was for some of us... a LIFE SAVER... OMG.
Which is odd because it’s about a guy who feels like he has absolutely nothing to live for
Yes, but it makes other people who feel the same realise that it’s not only them that feel like that. I found that with the Black Album. That was my life saver 🤟🏻
Man, this is 1983 all them... So awesome, my favorite band of all time... (ok, I was 11 in’83, but Metallica are my forever love and I’ll be 50 next week!🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
They’ll always RULE!
Guys...notice there's no music video for this song? MetallicA refused to do videos before "One". They weren't about image or looks. They got no radio air play. They got famous JUST off their music & talent. When they DID start doing videos, it was on THEIR terms.
Sadly it's hard if not nearly impossible to try and do the same thing as a musician nowadays.
One’s video adds such an impact to the song tbh
They most likely didn't have the money before the Monsters of Rock tour for Master of Puppets
@@sirmcafee2365 this song would need a very emotional video and morbid
Lee Barton sadly this album was last time we heard Cliff Burton....man, he was awesome a guy who treated his bass like a guitar.
Ride the Lightning came out in 1984, yesterday was the albums 34th Birthday. You gotta hear Orion next
Anthony Rizzo Orion is so awesome!
Came back to watch this again. My father recently passed away, and he always said that this was the quintessential heavy metal song. We played it at his funeral, and it just makes me so happy to see people enjoying it. I'll always recommend this to people getting into Metallica for the first time.
My condolences for your father 🥺
Very sorry for your loss...
Cliff Burton the person who instilled the melodic aspect to Metallica.
After this 30 years I have goosebumps hearing this song...., masterpiece!
Fight fire with fire - Metallica. I think they are ready for it.
gentlemen, first of all I appreciate that you go outside of your comfort zone and review these. So far as when this was made, the year was 1983. At that point they had no accesss to the best, not yet.
This and Cemetery gates by pantera are two of the most beautiful songs I have ever listened
Arvind Shastri Dont follow by aic is the most beautiful I have ever listened too
Same here
This was their last album on an independent label so they didn't have near the access to the best of engineers and producers in the mid 80's and that is what makes this album even more amazing. I personally feel that "Trapped under Ice" is the best song on this album.
killatella90 I like Fight Fire with Fire the best
killatella90 “Trapped Under Ice” is so good. Personally I feel this song was the best on the album, and frankly of their entire catalog. Even though it’s was such a departure from their main sound at that time. It’s probably because the lyrics resonated with me so much as a sullen, depressed teenager. Second fav off this album would have to be “Creeping Death”.
Sewerslider Love Creeping Death!
This album has to be my favorite from Metallica. It just has so many fantastic songs. It's pretty much perfect!
Insanity. Its the worse song but its also good. So many better songs
In my opinion the greatest Metallica album is ride the lightning.
#same
AJFA all day
It's a funny one. I think MoP is their best but Lightning is my favourite. Work that out :)
@@jlapp thats it.
Agreed
Having a guitar playing a bass like rhythm at the beginning sets the tone for when the base comes in and that in and of itself shows how much Metallica appreciates every single person and instrument that makes this band absolutely phenomenal
Epic album by one of the greatest, God bless James Hetfield and a speedy recovery while he is checked into rehab.
It's sad to see, was meant to see them last October. Was guttered when they postponed
@@ToMMyGuNN137 COVID came as well and stopped basically everything 😭😭
At this time Metallica didn't have access to the best recording / sound engineers. Ride the lightning was recorded with a budget of only 30,000$ in 1984. To put that into perspective the best selling record of 1984 (Michael Jackson's Thriller) had a budget of 750,000$ even though it was recorded in 1982
Yup
"Mike Tyson in a tutu" - comments like this is the reason I follow you guys, you rock!
Brilliant comment hahahaha
Don't get me fycked up, I'll still knock you out! Lol. ... Excellent
Fucking killed me too hahahah!
This makes me feel 17 again lol. God bless Metallica
I've been a Metallica fan for over 30 years and I love watching people get introduced to them for the first time. They are by far my favorite band and it really means a lot to me hearing people appreciate what they've done. You guys obviously know music and like good music. Keep doing what you do.
this ENTIRE Album is TIMELESS. I will still be listening to it when I'm 80 and pass it on to the next generation.
There is a reason why Metallica, Priest, Rush, etc. Are big time metal bands...glad to see how you grab onto that like we did 30+ years ago. Love seeing you get lost in the solo.
If you listen to back to my days Metallica was media blasted due to the song but this song saved my life if it wasn't for this song I might not be typing this today and be so changed for the better seriously this song has a profound meaning to me it screams where our mind can take us
Loving these videos so much! The first Metallica review is what brought me here yesterday and 2 million of you videos later I'm still here... binge watching. New subscriber here. Love your reactions and love that you like so many different genres!
I remember in 8th grade, we had to pick a song to analyse, as poetry, in front of the class. I picked this one, and I wonder if my teacher/classmates worried about me haha
Erica the red head that’s hella awesome 😎
Lol I remember when I had to do that in high school. I went with Master of Puppets...That got quite the reaction too
Erica the red head I did the same!
Haha oh nice. We did the same thing in 8th grade. I did Marilyn Manson's Sweet Dreams, Korn's Blind, Green Jelly's Three Little Pigs....and I think I did Seven Mary Three's Cumbersome. :D
i did dead skin mask by slayer lol
The solo towards the end is Insane
One of the best in history. I haven’t heard every metal solo ever of course, but out of what I’ve heard Fade to Black easily has the most emotional solo.
El mejor solo de guitarra de metallica
@@EGuitarmane incomparable, Fade to Black ending solo is more about emotion, while Tornado's solo is about being Thrashy as hell, I love both though ^^
My Favorite part In the song
I have a friend who calls this song Fade to Guitar Solo....
I love y’all’s banter and the true first time reactions to hearing some music that is new to you both. Appreciate that you can step out of your comfort music and appreciate music that you otherwise wouldn’t listen to. Great work keep ‘em coming.
I don't know who started doing reaction videos, but you guys are the first that I started watching and I'll be damned, you do it the best. You dissect lyrics so well, you're witty, funny and whether you like the song or not, you give it a chance and respect everything(even if you take the piss out of it at the same time, lol) that you try.
As others have pointed out, this was 1984, only their second full length album. Also important to point out that they had not yet become the biggest metal band of all time. Their star was rising, sure, but they were far from a household name at that point in their career. Iron Maiden, for example, were much, MUCH bigger stars worldwide at that time.
ProgHead777 I started in high school in the 89 and remember a kid pointing at my shirt and asking "What's metal LICK uh?" When I was out of school in 92 EVERYBODY knew who they were.
I had a kid in high school 7 years ago that sat next to me in class. He looked over at my shirt “Metallica” and said...
“Ain’t that a city in Germany....?”
I was like no... it’s a band
He had no idea what I was talking bout
*TIL* thanks, proghead777
perfect.. around 84, Metallica were pretty low budget in terms of everything, and their success grew purely "organically" in this time, thats why they're huge
your on crack, Maiden was never mainstream, and Metallica biggest metal band of all time, I have seen Metallica 7 times starting back in the 80"s great band yes, best ever no....Megadeath is a better Sabbath a whole new level above, Deep Purple, believe me I have seen them all live I just went and seen Joe Satriani live, he taught Kirk Hammett how to play, litterally 5 ft away was one of the best experiences ever
Pantera - Cemetery Gates
I appreciate the love you guys show this. This is an important song in many peoples lives. This song has got me through tough times in my life. You are right live it is amazing. I saw them play it in October last year and legit cried.
You guys bringing me back to view the same videos I watched over a year ago. Great channel guys. Been a free thinker my whole life and I'm glad to see there are so many others like me.
This one was so good they forgot to pause every 20 seconds.
The song was written by James about the time his mother died when he was like 15. She gave him a gutair and years later it was stolen . So the song is about that pain he was experiencing. I used to play this on drums . My Favorite.
Damn, I hadn’t known that, but it makes sense. Wow.
Patriot Penny I didn’t know that, I just knew that they wrote it after their gear was stolen and they had a rough time alltogether.
Wrong
Patriot Penny one of mine too
Wasn't the god that failed about his mother dying? Both of them? I don't fuckin know man i'm only 18
Ryan and George if you hear this, PLEASE DO "ORION"!!!!! (Master of Puppets album). Cliff Burton blows your mind with his skill in this song! A phenomenal instrumental that 100% stands out as a "greatest hits" candidate for Metallica. One of their best pieces. Love tuning into to your new videos and hearing your unbiased opinion, and I would love to hear you tackle this killer masterpiece! Thanks again!
I've noticed the bass players don't get alot of love in their more metal reactions. I get the guitar is more noticeable then the bass but I've watched Cliff and Geezer get not mentioned once even when their going off.
That transition from the main one to the finale of this song is phenomenal. Especially the guitar solo at the end which sounded like "flight", assuming the person in the song finally commited suicide and is free from all his woes, all his pain and misery in life and travels to after-life. As the song's title "Fade to Black" indicates like his soul has finally travelled to infinity and beyond, into nothingness, like we all do in the end...away from the world that hurt him. Sorry if that was too long but the first time I heard this was way back in my younger years. The song was heartfelt for me and struck me really hard back then. Anyways, keep 'em coming guys. Nice vid
listen to blackened !
Shane Neilson of course man it's a masterpiece
You guys need to do “Battery” by Metallica it’s absolutely insane!
wesley perkins AGREED
(Live Seattle 89) ;)
Gotta disagree yo. Don't get me wrong, it's an incredible live version, but it would be these guys' first intro proper thrash Metallica. The studio version is nuts, but the groove and feel is still perceptible through the wall of noise, better for analysis and reaction
totally!!! upvoted to reach number 1 so they can see, gogo
bump
Not they’re best song??? Are u kidding me?? This is possibly the best song in the history of music
I’ve seen a lot of ‘reaction’ videos, but yours are the ones I enjoy the most. You really immerse yourselves in the music and give pure feedback. Just awesome
You have to review Metallica - Orion, it's a masterpiece!!!!
Best instrumental ever brother!
Definitely. Orion is their ultimate instrumental, and really showcases Cliff's abilities both on the bass and on the sheet. Burton's bass solo is amazing.
Don't kill me here but I think that To live is to die is by far the definitive Metallica instrumental.
As much as I enjoy Orion, I actually like The Call Of Ktulu more. I also think Suicide & Redemption doesn't get nearly enough respect.
+1 ORION !! I'd love these guys get to know the song and share their reaction / analysis.
It's probably already been said in comments but I'm not scrolling through almost 3000 comments.......... James wrote this song about how he felt after all of there equipment was stolen on tour i think with Van Halen Just as they were starting to get a name for themselves, I think 1983?. Anyways Eddie Van Halen heard what happened and sent them all brand new equipment................How cool is that???
"Now let me finish this piroutte." -Queue the food in my mouth meeting my monitor. Thanks for that.
Do for whom the bells tolls ! You will never wipe the smile off your faces again. 😆😀😎
@Ron 3 wah wah wah wahh
This song is so beautiful you guys couldn't stop it more than 2 times..
Yea i noticed
That Mike Tyson analogy though... Dude. Killed me 😂
Hey guys,
going through your videos and have to say this is my favorite from you. Limited stops because you both were so engaged with the music and it was great to tag along you discovering this song.
Best Metallica song ever in my opinion (and they have many great songs to choose from). This was on Ride the Lightning from 1984 which was my first exposure to them. So much depth to this song, both musically and lyrically.
Creeping Death for the next one.
You may like Metallica - Welcome Home (Sanitarium) more!
I like Sanitarium more than One to be honest. I like the atmosphere of the song more, very haunting. And that bridge breakdown riff...awesome.
Yes! Sanitarium is an absolute must!
Yes! Sanitarium next
I add my vote for Welcome Home (Sanitarium). I haven't seen any reaction channel do it yet, either.
Seeing you guys headbang is awesome! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
You guys are great... and you being so close to the camera in the darkness, reminds when my dad used to tell us stories during blackouts in Havana, my hometown in cuba ...
