What if Halo On Fire was on The Black Album? 

A person by a name of "Metall․AI" has stolen a lot of Metallica What If covers (including this one) and released everywhere without the permission of the original creators. Please report this person literally anywhere. Stealing other peoples content and making money out of it is literally the scummiest thing that can ever be done among musicians. I don't even know if I want to continue making this kind of stuff, if some dumbass will just steal it.

ive returned to say that this should be far more popular

That AI voice over is getting way too good

4:51 Caught that Enter Sandman reference right there. Also that drum fill at 5:22 is from Of Wolf And Man. Cool idea to sprinkle references around!

GuitarRazze walked so AI channels could run.

I can close my eyes and hear this 30 years ago as a middle school kid. This is fantastic.

Wtf, the Hetfield voice is perfect...

The wherever I may roam bass slap 🔥🔥🔥

This is fucking amazing! 90’s Hetfield on one of my fav songs from Hardwired Album. You Sir deserve a medal for this 👍🏻

I don't care what anyone says, that is THE perfect AI TBA Hetfield voice.

2:49 the demon in the ai

How hasn’t this absolutely blown up the internet?!? It’s insanely good, like 99.9% perfection, especially the vocals! It’s actually scary…

There are some nuances that make the song straight outta Black Album for a moment. Thanks for putting it so much effort🫡

I feel as if THIS is what people expected Metallica to release as a follow up to the Black Album. I don't think that anybody expected Metallica to release a thrash album after 1991, but the thing with the Black Album is that it was so solid that even some hardcore thrashers accepted it. Sure, some were disappointed but most people really couldn't argue with the fact that the Black Album was good. Therefore, I believe that if they released something along the same lines as a follow up, Metallica wouldn't have gotten the crap they got for Load and Reload. Don't get me wrong, I love Load and Reload. Both albums hold a special place in my music library, but they were probably a step in a direction that was way too weird for Metallica fans at the time.

holy shit that growl at 2:50 caught me off guard awesome rework man! keep it up!

Vocals sounds amazing on this, incredible what can be done now. Good job dude I enjoyed this!

Wow that was incredible! I'm really glad you didn't fundamentally change anything about the rhythm or structure of the song. But you nailed the guitar and drum tones, plus James' voice is on point with no awkward cracks that usually come with AI voices. Bravo 👏

Holy shit, talk about a bucket list item being ticked off. Thanks a lot for this!

I have tears in my eyes, it's beautiful!

When James yells "Halo on Fire!" It sounds so goddamn cool

wow dude you need to do others like this! I've been into this AI Metallica thing for months now and lots just don't come out too great. This is crazy good.

Please never stop making these! I want to hear every song in every album's flavor someday before I die haha

Absolutely incredible.

This would perfectly fit on the Black Album

Voice is spot on. Guitars are the same though

You absolutely nailed this. Particularly the final sections - 6:08 onwards is absolutely spine-tingling 😄

The drums sound PERFECT on here

So dope, great work buddy

One word Perfection

I love this version. Hardwired had some bangers on it. Now That Were Dead would sound cool on the Black Album

This is so great, the vocals were so good, and the guitar tone was on point. Epic!

amazing work🤤

Your videos are so fucking underrated man, I see these people making these shitty Metallica tone videos getting hundreds of thousands of views. Then there's you nailing the entire Metallica sound; guitar, drums, vocals. I wish you got more views man, loveyour work!

this is way too good for ai, thank you so much for posting this ❤

From 6:08 on is so legendary 🤘

The part that starts at 6:08 is so good

This is amazing. Great work. Too much to request A day that never comes like this with added orchestra, similar to S&M2

Can you imagine this would have been on the Black Album? It would have been innovative for those years!It turned out excellent on you! I love that song more now!!😮

Good lord this shit hits the spot, please do more for the love of god i want this shit in my playlist, this is the more hard hitting stuff alot of us have wanted for so long.

Bro It’s cool Need more songs with James 1991 black album

I thought i read "Halo on Fire" and was looking for Master Chief to be literally set on Fire.

This makes the original sound like a cover from a different band

This is good shit, loved the song already and this is phenomenal

heard the wherever I may roam sound reference in there with the other song soundbites. very convincing. bob rock says " no", though.

Damn, I liked the song that way more. Awesome

Esta versión me hizo enamorarme de nuevo de esta canción 🥺

This is great but to fully appreciate how much the EQ sounds like the Black Albumn you need to listen to it with head phones.

It does have that sound though and it's a great song.

This is amazing.

Holy shit this is pretty damn good

Damn man this sounded really good. James classic voice can’t be beat🤘

Fucking wicked work. Only thing I feel that could have made it just a hair more authentic is adding some growls, I.E of wolf and man/ the struggle within etc from black album. Otherwise nailed it

This tone is MONSTERSLY good

: CeJey :

Wow! That was awesome!

good work but the song would be at least 3 minutes shorter : )

What the fuck this is…. Amazing

God damn... Amazing work! 😮

Well done! Original, precise, with a superb voice and good mastering!

This is dope! Better than the original! Resurrect James’s 80’s and 90’s vocals 🤘🏼

Yooo that tone

Jason: OBEY 👹

Very well done!

This is amazeballs

Absolutely nailed it. 10/10!

Hands down the greatest ai cover out there. Please do more.

ABSOLFUKINLUTLY AMAZING!!!💕🙏🎸🎼🎵👍

This sounds amazing! 👍

The guitar tone is spot on but, well, it lacks like one or two layers. Good job anyway!

Increíble trabajo! Esto es una joya 💎❤

Amazing work, you should do more songs

I just caught at 2:50 that you added the live growl version of "obey" in the background. Awesome detail dude!

Daaammmm... me likes. Well done.

this is absolutely gold my guy! there is a guy named GR. check him out! he did various songs on the black album plus more and he didn't finish some songs he doesn't do it no more and i think you can finish them!! i wish i could idk how to do this

The problem with black album era james voice ai, is that in soft parts, it still growls

Amazing!

Just need to throw some "yeah yeahs" in there and it'd be perfect

I wonder if bands will eventually use this technology in their new albums. I mean, after all, guitars are also heavily edited in the recording process already, effects are added and all that, most recorded digitally. Vocals are technically another instrument, so I wonder if this sort of editing will be used commercially.

Where can I find the AI model you used?

Awesome! I like James hetfield singing sounds voice halo on fire were on the metallica black album 🎸 🎤🥁🎵 ⬛

Black Album bonus Track

Bro these metallica mixes are the reason I bought RU-vid premium please make as many as you possibly can I love em bud

Awesome work! 6:00 reminds me of SOAD a little bit haha

How did you make the vocals sound so much like early 90's Hetfield? Is this an ai-generated voice or just someone doing a very good impression?

Nice... very nice.

this shit so magnificent

it's really insane it's like hearing a new Black Album

This sounds so great lol, btw if you ever need help making the AI voice covers hit me up man, I can prob do them for you, I've got some tools and what not to make them sound a bit better. Overall great cover, you've won a sub

this sounds way more metally

Fuck this is good

GuitarRazze comes to mind

Excellento

it's better than the original and I quite like the original!

Can you upload it without drums as well? I love hearing the guitars clearly. Edit: This is sick!!!

Epic, shit I’m speechless ❤❤❤❤❤

OH HELL YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Eargasm

Please do Confusion. GuitarRazze has a black album version already, all you’ll have to do is add the AI vocals

Im happy 😅 white rush good job

2:49 Is that a James growl from a live version of the song? : O
