➡️ Because of YOU fabulous folks, I learned that an “Enhanced Bass” version of “The Call of Ktulu” by ‪@metallica‬ was a thing. What a treat it was to experience all the nuance and dimension the bass parts actually had. I’ve been listening to this instrumental song from "Ride The Lightning" for YEARS without fully knowing what Cliff Burton was playing. In this video, we take a deep dive into the "lead bass" approach Cliff takes during the first half of the song, the variation on the fills, and how it's truly just one massive bass solo (...take one?) atop the brooding chord progressions. I talk about Cliff's usage of effects with his signature "wah" and fuzz combo, the chromatic commonalities in each song section, how Metallica exercise the art of simplicity (and why it's so effective), and how this song perfectly sets the stage for American horror writer H. P. Lovecraft's ominous being "Cthulhu" to appear any minute now!

Metallica always seemed like they had a love/hate relationship with the low end. They get incredible bassists and then completely bury them in mixes. I always thought Jason newsted was a red headed stepchild for them, and I listened to a boosted version of IFA and was blown away.
@LowEndUniversity
@LowEndUniversity Год назад
I think it was just the attitude portrayed through the wall-of-sound mixing, and some Lars / James ego back then to be up front and center. The rough-edge, garage type of production was a big part of their branding. Just my take, anyway. I love The Black Album and the Load-era mixes because they went from buried bass to pure sonic art with the low end in the 90's.

​​​​​​@@LowEndUniversityAlso go back and listen to Jason's debut with the band on "The $5.98 EP. Garage Days Re-Revisited" (1987) and his Bass is audible on virtually every track of that EP in a way that it wasn't on "...And Justice For All" a year later (that was until "...And Justice For Jason" surfaced on RU-vid many years after the fact on which the Bass is far more prominent in the mix)✌️❤️🤘🌏

i watched some video of them explaining why they mistreated jason like that. it doesnt justify it, but at least it explains it. they never dealt with cliff's death properly.....they channeled it through bullying(they called it "hazing" but it was just bullying) jason. they didnt even let him play the full version of his solo intro in "my friend of misery". what we get is an extremely simplified and shortened version.

@@muriloninja he definitely used some effects his were never as drastic as Cliffs. Just look at the seattle 89 and Sam Diego 92 shows with proper “live experience” mixes the effects are where they are supposed to be but different. Notably for whom the bell tolls. The S&M mix is more mixingboard than front of house so you could better hear the whole symphony and Jasons bass was running a two loop setup one clean direct in or definition and one for effects. Pretty common in pro rock bass look at Billy Sheehan if you want to see a really specific version of that. There are still some bootlegs from the show and i think a different mix made by splitting the surround sound from the video version somewhere that have more of what the audience heard in the room and less the engineered raw recordings.

Without Cliff, Metallica would have been just another Exodus, Megadeth, Anthrax, or Testament. These are all great bands, but what really made Metallica stand out was the complexity and depth that Cliff brought to the first three records, and some of the songs he wrote for Justice. His mastery of the bass and knowledge/understanding of music theory is honestly beautiful, even in such a hard rocking medium. Long live the major rager on the 4-string MFer!
@willharry6835
@willharry6835 Год назад
Totally agree with this. Like Iron Man said in the avengers, "We have a Hulk", I'd say for Metallica, "We have/had Cliff". He was truly the difference maker and what truly set them apart from other bands like you said.
@DM-rc4yu
@DM-rc4yu Год назад
I don't think it's fair to attribute it to all to Cliff. He was involved in RTL but already on MOP had only 3 writing credits, less than Hammett. He didn't write any music for Justice, he's credited for TLITD lyrics only.
@willharry6835
@willharry6835 Год назад
@@DM-rc4yu Obviously not cause James, Lars and Kirk also had the magic sauce. And we also gotta give small credit to Dave Mustaine cause his contribution in Metallica though minor, sort of gave a certain edge to Metallica. But back to Cliff, I don't think Metallica would've been as amazing if they hadn't met Cliff. He's the one who thought them about theory and stuff like harmonies I believe. He's knowledge in classical music was essential to make Metallica the transcendent band they ended up being and what set them apart. Even when he didn't have writing credit, I believe he was still essential to the whole thing and we gotta remember that Metallica I believe credits based on riff contributions if I'm not mistaking.

The story told throughout the song is amazing. Cliff absolutely is the waking beast. Kirk's solo and the harmonies near the end i take as Cthulhu's followers/worshippers singing to him. At the end when they come back to the intro with the clean guitar first it's like the calm before the storm, but in the end you're in the eye of the tornado where it's calm for a moment before it all goes to chaos again, that when Cthulhu finally destroys the world.

The strength of the man’s attack cannot be overstated. Bass players are kind of in the best position to understand just how much strength is required in both hands to physically accomplish exactly what he was doing. And this is just one tiny aspect of Cliffs talent, innovative approach and creativity!🤘🏻 I highly recommend everyone listen to the isolated bass tracks of Cliff. There’s just so much to eat there that you simply can’t pick up listening to the albums on their own.

That last fill right before it kicks back in to the bridge riff is a tapping line, blew me away when I caught that in an isolated track. As for a Jason track, it's gotta be My Friend of Misery or Dyer's Eve. There's tracks pulled from Guitar Hero or Rock Band of Dyer's Eve that really showcase how crazy Jason's playing was back then and how criminal it is that the bass parts are buried so thoroughly.

Thank you so much for your continued appreciation for Cliff and Metallica. This is such an amazing song. As you said it's lyrical without any lyrics. You can see it playing out like a movie in your mind, the beast rising from the depths. Those incredible growls and screams Cliff made on the bass don't even sound like an instrument but like an actual monster. The gradual haunting build in the beginning and towards the ending as it fades has always caught my ear. Sounds so beautiful. This whole song is just a showcase of everyone showing off and complimenting one another.

One bassist you should definitely take a look at is Chaoth who used to be in Unexpect. That band is incredibly technical and creative, and pushes boundaries like not many others. Chaoth plays a 9-string bass and while his newer material is not as put there compositionally, it is still incredibly technical. I highly recommend looking at one of his playthroughs of Unexpect songs. He has one of Words on his RU-vid channel. You won't regret it.

There are not a lot of people out there that can actually point out that this is Theater music. This is like listening to old school classical. Cliff was Cthulhu. In the intro it has that sound of hmm what is that who done it ? sound almost like a mystery music or pink panther, it feels questioning music or investigative. Then it jumps into Cthulhu appearing and calling out to his followers the bridge and kirk's solo is the main antagonist running for help to warn others of Cthulhu, followed by the joint solos and harmonizing is them fighting back and pushing Cthulhu back into the sea around the 11:30 mark as it goes higher. and right at 12:10 you can feel like they pushed Cthulhu to a cliff (no pun intended) and he falls off

Would love to see you do some Type O Negative. Black Number 1, Wolf Moon, Blood & Fire...all great sons by Type O Negative. As for Call Of Kthulu, one of my fav songs by Metallica, aside from Devil's Dance (which has a nice dirty bass sound). Thanks for covering this

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-haGVkUOwNQ4.html this is the best version I’ve ever heard of Call of Ktulu. It’s live and faster and Cliff ABSOLUTELY brings Cthulhu to life. It’s just so great.

Is just like the tale, a bunch of humans, which is Kirk's solo, screaming and escaping from an inevitable death by Ktulu, portrayed masterfully in Cliff's bassline. No Doubts that Cliff was a big fan of Lovecraft.

You ain’t kidding! Remco Hendrix IMO, is one of the best in the game in the use of ghost notes. Love his gnarly right hand technique with the way he uses his thumb.

May be a controversial take, but i think the lack of bass volume on this particular song is more tragic than all the songs lack of bass on the entire justice album. For a song that is basically just a big long bass solo, they really did a good job of making it next to impossible to hear in the original mix.

Is there a place/person where you can download the entire album with more bass (done well)? I had Ride The Lightning exclusively on my yellow Sony Walkman for 2 years and I want to hear it again for the first time!

Mustaine ended up using some of his parts from this on the World Needs Hero album. Off hand, i think it was on the "warhorse" song.

As some with long thick fingers I’ve had trouble with four fingered chords like 4 fingered G chord on the guitar. Iv been wondering if I’d be better with bass and these videos make me really interested especially Cliff Burton and Tool’s bassist. I was saddened to hear of Cliff’s passing. But I do like Robert Trujillo. I also had no idea you could get 5 stringed basses.

Holy shit. Cliff is Ktulu. That idea just blows me away especially since I’ve been listening to this since the mid 90s and never made that connection. Probably because the Metallica mix always buried the low end
@LowEndUniversity
@LowEndUniversity Год назад
Ha. That's always how I interpreted it - hearing the screeching of the fuzz and wah underneath those ominous chord progressions. It definitely reframes the listening experience for the song when you think about it that way. Appreciate you stopping by John!

I got the Justin Chancellor wah pedal and it helps me sound more like Cliff than my Cliff Morley wah. I don't know why. Probably because my fingers are no where near as strong as Cliff's.

Try listening to this without the bass... it loses sooo much. Growing up in the 80's I was all about loving the lead guitar.. but as I got older and dug deeper into the metal genre I found myself more drawn to the lower rumble of the bass.. and I discovered that the goosebumps I often got from good songs were generally triggered by the bass itself. If not the tone itself then by how it accentuates the melody going at the same time. It is ASMR for me.

Does anyone know if Lynyrd Skynyrd got any royalties from Metallica. One of his riffs was used? I saw a Dave mustian interview were he said he introduced sweet home Alabama to clif. Yet he claims so much credit for the song on Kill ‘Em All, which is not really his idea

If you want to see how he does those parts I’m pretty sure that there’s footage of Rob playing it and I’m pretty certain that he’s true to the original.

OK, so we all know that Jason cannot be heard on the "...And Justice For All" album. But some real injustice took place much earlier, when Cliff was in the band. "Ktulu" is a perfect example. Cliff is going crazy here, yet on the record, his bass track is barely audible. What the fuck?
