Strictly facts

😂😂😂

@Dominic KEKW best reaction channel ever imp

LMAO xD

😂😂😂

That guitar ripped its own shirt off, I felt it screaming, gradually getting angrier. Best solo of all time

I am still battling and hope I don’t lose.

@@DanaOrtiz we never do bro., it's always about finding the right balance so we can go on and live our life.

@@DanaOrtiz Stay strong buddy.

@@DanaOrtiz no matter what, you keep finding something to fight for. Win the fight every day

@@DanaOrtiz you got this

Nice catch.

Yes!

"pur emotion put in a musicly form" also great

holy shit....

@@zsaz4453 yeah, but it doesn't have the simplicity of the first quote

Welcome to the human race... it's not awesome all the time.... But it can be with metal.

Even before he said this I was thinking how good his Metal “Stankface” was.

Naw... its bot until you imagine playing the kick drum with you face.. haha

L Kding I cried tears of joy the first time I started headbanging my head 🤣🤟🤟🤟

L Kding Welcome aboard Bro!! love ya, man!!

Magnus Zwisler that’s not a solo

Thibaut de Saivre no it’s no you idiot

That ain't a solo

It not a solo, mb. I though you were talking about somewhere else in the song.

Ashley Martin exactly!

And you know back then they were definitely drinking beer

@@zachd5598 and much harder liquor!

I’m Drinking Fireball Rn. 🔥

hold my lightning

LOL

Oh! This would be so awesome!!!!

@@oatesandmessina Real shit. All they give a fuck about is money.

Would love to see that

@@causticorator618 They have the right not to want their HARD WORK given away for free! People are like petulant children these days! They want want want and get pissed if they don't get it! You try creating works of art, putting all you are into it, sacrificing time with family/friends to create music for fans just to have them whine because you didn't give it to them for free....... NOW how do you feel about it!? They are a band that existed through the transition from a time when people were mature, respectable, honorable, etc. and gave high value to those traits, to now where people are immature, disrespectful, weasels that only care about themselves, safe-space whine bag children in adults bodies..... a hard transition to live through for anyone (myself being one of them) but especially when you are a band of their caliber! They go from people/fans who would pay HIGH DOLLAR to see them in concert, get one of their albums, etc. (showing respect and value for their hard work), to people/so called fans that not only "want" but EXPECT them to "give away" their hard work to an entitled people who don't even know what hard work is! Yeah, you don't really want to "reward" that type of people..... and they damn sure don't deserve it! So no, it isn't "about the money", the last estimate of their net worth is around $820 MILLION...... its about, well, if you don't get it by now you never will!

I wonder why Dr. Dre never gets any backlash from this? He was right there with Lars, talking out on, and suing Napster as well.

fortunally Anthrax exist

Back when Metallica was for real, not the caricatures they have become.

@@borisnegrarosa9113 sound like a haterrrrr

@borisnegrarosa9113 lmao try and stay true to your trashy 25 year old self and still pull out good music. Of course they had to sell out a hit mfker, doesn't mean they still dont make good music

@musicmike6124 actually the burglary wasn't the inspiration, just the push

Agreed

Can he handle it?

Specifically the live version

Sorry to say... St. Anger is a better song than For Whom The Bell Tolls.... and St. Anger is an affront to music..... Dyers Fucking Eve!

@@punk303 I'm gonna have to disagree with you on that one. From what I know St. Anger is more meaningful and without it, Metallica probably wouldn't still be a thing and we wouldn't have DM and HWTSD, but For Whom The Bell Tolls is just a better song in my opinion, I still like St. Anger though.

the beauty of his words are his innocent expressions and "losing his metal V" in a way that hits the nail on the head.

So so very true thank you very much

Trap music is the exception

Facts

People have preferences and sometimes people only like one genre of music, there’s nothing wrong with that.

@@EatDatBitchAwpWow, no shit. Did you even read his comment?

@@Sam-ni6bc Ima assume you don’t know how to read since this comment literally says I never understood why ppl limit themselves to one genre and the answer is simple to you dumbos🤣People have preferences, simple as that.

Dude had me weak when he said that lol

He realized at that moment that you don't need vocals for metal to SING.

exactly what good "metal" is about as a concept for sure

Metal is pure emotion...wrapped in virtuosity. Metal is primal scream shaped into a diamond. Metal is life.

SWEET EMOTION - AEROSMITH EMOTIONS IN MOTION - BILLY SQUIER

David Carter damn right, that shit goes straight to my soul. I know what kind of day my husband has had based on what I hear coming from his studio room. He has an eight string that means he’s pissed af but some of his best music comes from that tbh.

Man Slaughter there is no good or bad metal. metal is a feeling, it’s a way to express yourself. as long as the person who made the song could express themselves and make another human being feel what they are feeling...then that! that is fucking metal!

Me too. Love this song.

Me as well

Same 🤘

How?

What do you mean when you say "this song saved my life"?

I lost it when he said that!

That's funny

You know its metal when even the instruments start yelling at you

With dick

That’s so hilarious and true 😂

Metallica and Tool are my favs

Lol i wrote the same thing and then saw your comment lol i deleted mine and liked yours lol great minds right

Ashley Johnson Yes exactly lol I love it!! He's the best too because he stays open minded and truly experiences the song!

For sure he's great at what he does

Right? 🤩🤘🎸🔥

Welcome to NoLife Community. Greetings!

FuckEbonics I listen too all of that shit bro😂

Couldn't of said it better myself

No lie bro I’m 15 and I be amazed by all the music I hear from the 80’s-90’s

FuckEbonics This brought a tear to my eye.

I seriously wish I could go back and listen to all my favourite metal songs for the first time, and have my eyes opened to some truly beautiful music.

Yeah, the main reason he was sad was bc one of his amps was given to him by his mom who helped him get it before she died, if it wasn’t for her his music career would never have been possible

I'm confused because I've heard the story about the gear stolen but James also said recently at a show this songs about suicide?

that's exactly right, it never changes from suicide through out the whole. the entire song is about suicide. you are correct. fade to black means closing your eyes and receive death.

The deepest line is, I was me, but now he's gone. It's the body, referring to the soul.

Wow you’re from Nigeria?

@@xonrob9575 No Germany but who cares

@@dogg4273 i was joking

Exactly what I was thinking. We need to get my guy in a pit

Evidently the face likes the music.. in fact the whole head does!

For real tho

Yessss i was head banging with him hahah its lit \m/

🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

Hm I didn't know that

@@lilkenprez205 that's why the whole song "ride the lightning" is about a guy being executed in the electric chair

Look on the cover there is an electric chair being struck by lightning.

@@andrewbrown9274 yeah I know I just didnt know ride the lightning was a euphemism for electric chair

Thanks captain obvious.

You summed up exactly what I felt whilst watching this whole video. It's like experiencing Metallica for the first time all over again and it's brilliant. It actually gives me such a buzz!

Preach brother!

It really does man. I listened to classic rock the entire day because of him lol.

Thats tough man, feeling the same way right now at 3:47 in the morning

300? Lightweight....lol

Absolute favorite!

Kirk definitely had the pick of destiny for the first 3 albums lol

@@ericbobo0 well, he wasn't even in the band for the first album, but that doesn't change a thing about how good he is

Mason Hills Yeah he was, they fired mustaine the day before recording, a few solos are kirks and the middle section of four horsemen. But that’s him you hear on the record

@@ericbobo0 well, I didn't know that, I guess I don't really do my research, I mainly just listen to the music.

Want to recommend me more as a newer fan?

Ezra, they have different sounds from different eras. From their earlier stuff, I like "The Four Horsemen". The drums actually sound like hoof beats, and there are two really great solos and beautiful harmonizations. Instrumentals; lay back and close your eyes with "Orion" , and "Call of Kutulu". With Symphony; "No leaf clover", and "Whiskey in the Jar". Pretty much all good, but these would be a pretty solid start.

@@scottsager440 Eyyyy No leaf clover was badass you dont hear it much or see anyone reacting to it, seems like it kind of got lost over time or not just my opinion

Ezra Przytyk FOR SURE!!! I love them so maybe I’m biased but here you go Ender Sandman Nothing Else Matters The Four Horseman To Live Is To Die Welcome Home St. Anger Moth into a Flame The Memory Remains Trapped under ice Of Wolf and Man. Those should get you started.

Let's not sleep on Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth) off Kill 'Em All. Incredible electric bass song.

Agreed best metallica song.

Thank you for your service you guys are the true legends of this world we are all in your debt

@@gageflorence5285 Thank you. I will not say that I was proud of the opportunities that I have had to serve my country, but I will say that I am glad that I could go in the place of someone who didn't have to experience many of the things that are STILL happening in that part of the world. Every time that I came home after being in what seems like a completed different world, made me appreciate what I have here so much more.

My family has alot of vets and I know the hardships that they have when they come home like my great grandpa brown he served in the Korean war I think. He was in the navy I never got to meet him because he died of cancer but my parents and grandparents tell me that he wasn't like he was when he came back. He I think had PTSD. My grandfather Rick was in the air force and one day he took me to a air force museum in Dayton Ohio and he had a hint of sadness in his eyes as he looked at the planes. He also snaps in and out of reality and I can tell that hes thinking of the war. I can say that all vets that I know because there's alot more that I know have something that sets them off. I know that they have regrets but I know that if they could go back and do it again they'd do it the same

Gage Florence All gave some. Some gave ALL. I have a little myself. Iraq and Afghanistan.

Your comment about this song getting you through rough times when you were deployed makes me love this song even more. Thank you to all who have and are continuing to serve. Words cannot express my appreciation, but the feeling that this song gives me expresses my sincerely heartfelt awe.

TRUE THAT

Yes I totally agree. Bro this is you now, no turning back. It will only get better from here..

Music connects us all

Word...

what about an older one like jump in the fire?

William Malone he already did

@@18wheeler77 when man I can't find it on the channel

Its gotta be Metallica S&M live- For whom the bell tolls

William Malone yes it was live

Dude!

i dont think its life. i think its just something to represent the stages of grief. but music is music, the meaning is up to the listener.

BLACKENED IS THE END

One of my favorite Metallica songs.

@@thestoobers7084 WINTER IT WILL SEND

Pleaaaaase! Lol

^ Is one of their BEST

It is a very great musical ...ive seen metalica 2 times live they are to lagit to quit

Okami Kiba he already did

@@18wheeler77 I think you're right!! I believe he reacted to it already!

The good part of that song is the intro

Amen

Well said

Same here

Same, but months ago. Shaq is one of the best reactors

Welcome to Shaq community man, ☮️ bro!

I take back my earlier comment, Shaq IS the best reactor.

I feel like this is a family.... "sad but true"

Dimebag Darrell would like a word with you about “shredding god.”

*_But Its James Hetfield_*

xcyclone51 Why always bring Dimebag into conversations about great fucking guitarists , we know

Shredding GWAHD

@JoosAreBehindItAll Make110TheLastTime you gotta be joking

Plzz, good songg!

Give this a thumbs up

Seen the video where cliff in high school is playing the riffs he wrote that became for whom the bell tolls? I think Jim Martin formerly from faith no more might've been on guitar, haven't seen the vid for ages but it's fantastic seeing cliff as a teen who would make Metallica who they were in the 80s.

Idk if he’s ready for that coach

@@devildog414fg oh he aint NEVER gonna be ready. Thats the point

max pappajohn well.. it’s Lars, so they can’t be that good lol. When it comes to metal drummers, he’s pretty weak

For real it's like actually getting to enjoy music WITH someone. (Outside of when jamming with the band)

I love him saying... “stop yelling at me!” And imagining kirk hammetts speaking voice

were not all 50 im 25 my brothers 22 and were metal heads

Sarah Dixon 54 here🙋🏽‍♀️ Long live metal!!

Not everyone is 50 and a metal head just look at me i am 13 and i am a metal head and i am going to watch metallica live july 9th

26 and I'm a metal head both new and old metal

15 over here and dont listen to anything else than metal

🤘

Dani C plus the legend Cliff Burton

They both make the solos, just because one plays them live doesnt mean only one makes them

Soooo happy right now !

One of the greatest pieces of music ever written.

What a story, that was...it was meant to be.. x

Yes, but for me, it was also a warning....once yiu go there, there is no turming back. It woke me up and mafe mecrealuse just how oermanet it is and that every dsrk moment passes if I would just hang on. I heard a saying a long time ago, "never give up 5 minutes before hge miracle".

Kirk Hammett , icons , it isn't about suicide but shows how great lyrics can be interpreted.. this song has probably saved alot of souls along the way as well as their own at the time in 84

What’s even more strange is you think about the fact they recorded this not long before Cliff left them. James said he had trouble for a little while playing this song after Cliff’s passing.

Who is talking about race though??

even mentioning that race shit,im from europe,we always watch americans arguing about skin color,damn,we are all brothers.sorry for my english grammar

@@cirajr5603 its the Damn politician's

Good for u.Rap is crap nowadays.

One of the best guitarists ever, Jimi, was black, but we don't see his skin, we see this soul.

Jimini I read as he said that 😂😂

its a untouched masterpiece

The whole song is perfection to me. My favorite metal song ever. Debatably my favorite song ever.

Damn str8 Kirks a legend along with the whole brand, anything they touch is money!! They're the greatest!!

Metal elitlist will be mad at your comment😂 but i agree with. But Jimi and srv is wayyyyyy tooo great than kirk.

How about the man who taught him how to play like the Joe Satriani the guy is a wizard on the axe

Fisheye lens it’s funny you say that. Joe said that was his worst student. Lol

Joshua Allen don’t make up things that Joe didn’t even said. He said kirk already good guitarist when he met him.

Me 2 Jamen, me 2... late 80’s!! 🎶😎 #Metallica

And for a long time i thouth

It was a mic

also is one of their songs

He has now

I know right fuck Ja Rule lil bitch ass js lol

Ja getting L's even when he has nothing to do with the topic

Poor ja nobody like that guy thats tuff

Monicaaa!

Music has no color

@@tanside979 no, but the people who make and listen to music do.

@@NoloPrime Holy shit! No kidding? My mind is blown by your analysis!

I know the feels. I get excited seeing black people in metal bands. Seven Dust, Killswitch Engage, Zao (guitarist on Zao has a unique performance move that I swear is gonna require surgery one of these days).

music may indeed have no colour, but that doesn't change the fact it's rare to see a black person listening to metal. so that's cool.

What’s justice and the black album about?

@@cursedtoilet8035 justice and black things

@@gabry5433 yes

​@@cursedtoilet8035Justice is about our corrupt society whereas Black is pure s h i t e

roeherpasa123 fuckin yes I was just thinking this

Do it

Yes, but the album version
