Diamond Head - Am I Evil covered by Metallica

[pedrohsilva99]

this cover is not from kill 'em all

[johnthegreek178]

@pedrohsilva99 It was recorded as a B side for the Creeping Death single at first, then included as a bonus track on Kill 'Em All and then on Garage Inc.

[xNxxJoshua]

@pedrohsilva99 wow , im dont know this :D

[AngelOfDeth300]

The bid 4 did a great performance...and tribute to DH.....so DH is better :P !!!

[BrianJLeong]

What happened to the harmonics at 1:37?

[SicKToxXicZzz]

@bubba485 theyre not relly thrash THEY WERE but not anymore



[Maxmotor2009]

seeing Megadeth, Slayer, Metallica, Anthrax and Diamond Head play this live 3 days ago at Soni 2011 was amazing!!

[H4X0R1337z]

This version is 1337! AMAZING!!

[bubba485]

The Big 4 of Thrash Metal, (ie: Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, and Slayer do a descent version of this)

[904austin]

@bubba485 Slayer wasn't on the stage when they did it.

[bubba485]

@904austin actually it was just the drummer.

[904austin]

@bubba485 Where were the other 3?

[bubba485]

@904austin my best guess would say they were back stage with the roadies

[lilmetallicafreak]

anything metallica rocks

[Krzygan]

3 people don't know as sounds best cover ever

[meggido666]

Both versions are great!!

[ssloco20011]

This version ROCKS!

[richis404]

i cant say that the cover is better than the original ,metallica just made it metallica style and the most of hardcore metallica fans will always say that the metallica version is better for some reasons , i like both versions and both bands

[diablalexfull]

i whrote on a desk: "Am i Evil?" and a grils said: "NO! your an angel" WTF!!!!!

[LordYanozsick]

@MegaMetallica90 Sure, but such meet should be server in a five-star restaurant instead of McDonald's. Know what I mean? :]

[johnthegreek178]

@LordYanozsick Seriously screw 5-star restaurants I'd rather eat a sandwich!

[LordYanozsick]

Seriously? This sucks ass compared to the original. They made a hamburger out of a perfect piece of first class meet.

[MegaMetallica90]

@LordYanozsick that hamburger must be really good



[apage251]

@LordYanozsick Yea man its an awesome version, but the original is so much better. Some bands have recorded covers that were far better than the original, but like you said, this like making a hamburger from a (filet mignon). Still awesome though.

[Explosiveelm]

@LordYanozsick I agree. Metallica completely bastardized the original.

[SirMeta293]

poor sucker missed the like button

[Spoc1012]

meh i like the original way more.

[Anthraxinmysystem]

isnt this on garage inc?

[LynxOGrady]

@Anthraxinmysystem It was on Kill Em All untill Garage Inc was released, then any Kill Em All made afterwards didnt have it......i think

[TowelieWTF]

Indeed, the cover sounds better than the original, but let's not forget that Diamond Head were the ones that inspired Metallica. \m/ Raise your fingers for Metallica and Diamond Head

[greenorange75]

I'm not evil, but I still give this a "like"!

[AkatanomastosCFH]

Just fuck metal miltia and enjoy the music fellas...

[westeastxybzd]

ATTENTION ALL LOVERS OF METAL!

The 'Metal Militia' of yours on YT have been trying to attack the kid named Justin Bieber's videos for a while now, and do you all really think that will do anything? Most of his popularity comes from his haters, and his fame would have died down now if it wasn't for us constantly declaring our hatred for him. If we all just pay no attention he will die down and we won't have to hear any more from the fag!

Thumbs up if you agree!

[dty06]

@westeastxybzd Don't assume that every "lover of metal" communicate with all the other ones and that we're some kind of "mob" that can be controlled/manipulated. We're not. We're a random group of people that often have no connection to each other. We're not mindless zombies, no matter what the media may try to tell you.

Fuck off.

[westeastxybzd]

@dty06 w/e dude i forgot bout that comment until I saw ur response

[TacoNinja27]

@westeastxybzd - Amen

[DayTripper415xx]

@westeastxybzd you people are stupid

[Cheasty2010]

in all fairness, this cover is better than the original

[MissAudrey2009]

fuck.. dude i've been listening to the Diamond Head version way before the metallica one but holy shit dude i've gotta give it to these guys.

p.s.

Kill em All + Black Magic = best fucking thrash albums of '83

[MasterPenut]

Its stupid for Megadeth fans to hate Metallica because without Metallica Megadeth wouldnt exist

[iammadeoutofmetal]

@MasterPenut Without Metallica, Dave Mustaine would have formed a different band than be in Metallica.

[miguelcontrol]

Diamond Head Am I Evil is great

[msz1]

They ripped this song off from Diamond Head.

[pigslovemetal2]

@msz1 its called a cover song dumbass you dont know anything.

[sopcmustaine]

Who did solo on the song ? Kirk ? or Dave ?

[izak1992]

@sopcmustaine Kirk!

[SourceofmetallicA]

@izak1992 Dave!

[TheFlashbabeBanned]

@sopcmustaine i hope kirk. otherwise i'll hate the song

[lleo11]

@TheFlashbabeBanned lol why not just like both. i like megadeth and metallica ^^

[TheFlashbabeBanned]

@lleo11 i like metallica ofcourse more cuz that band made me an metalhead but megadeth is also good i only know 1 song from them sweating bullets. its not that i dont like the band i just dont like the singer dave mustaine

[lleo11]

@TheFlashbabeBanned why u not like him?

[TheFlashbabeBanned]

@lleo11 cuz hes always acting like an ego prick etc. also he got jealous bcuz kirk hammett (guitarist from metallica) got his job. i mean dude grow up anyway i like both bands ^^

[lleo11]

@TheFlashbabeBanned hes over it now he played with metallica and the other 2 bands on stage. and megadeth was there of course ^^

[TheFlashbabeBanned]

@lleo11 hes over it? oh lol, i only saw that vid where he said it further didnt watched cuz i thought he was a prick ;p nvm

[lleo11]

@TheFlashbabeBanned well watch it they played am i evil. + u changed ur mind now? lol

[TheFlashbabeBanned]

@lleo11 if i changed my mind? hmm idk XD

[guitarsolos1]

@sopcmustaine originally it was Dave but he got kicked out before they went into the studio so Kirk

[sopcmustaine]

@guitarsolos1 So the solo was written by Dave and done by Kirk ?

[guitarsolos1]

@sopcmustaine well the solo was written by the guitarest of diamond head but Dave was supposed to play it but it was done by Kirk

[zackattack94]

this is heavier has more energy,power and more importantly metal

[EldubeG25]

it's on the Garage album, not Kill 'em All. The thing is that they recorded it in the early days, Kill an Ride times. They just took out the tape and put it in a cd lol

[Ryouknowit]

Am I Evil? yes i fucking am bitch!!!!!!!

[dkjw14]

@negreanu0calin Don't u mean thrash? lol

[norcalshan]

One of thier first recordings....

[Iceewindss]

I find that metallica's version is heavier than diamond head's...

[CupisHomines]

I'm sorry, but this version has more energy than the original.

[Cghost1031]

@CupisHomines no it just sounds like Metallica, the Original version is the only version. They just sound like Metallica doing covers they don't really add anything better to any song they cover. Good band tho very over-rated I must say.

[CupisHomines]

@CupisHomines I just said the cover had more energy than the original. The original, I thought, was kind of tame in comparison. Didn't have the same speed or aggression, I thought. That's just me though.

[lleo11]

@CupisHomines ur right it doesnt have as much aggression and this song is suppose to be evil so yeh metallica completes it ^^ specilly on live version its veery energic and awesome of metallica.i watched a old live version of it with daimond head it just sounds kinda blend and barely any distortion on the guitars.

[biiiiirdman]

@CupisHomines well, that's what Metallica did. They "Americanized" the English metal bands. It's like saying "I'm sorry, but Brazilian soccer has more energy than the English"

[bubba485]

@CupisHomines agreed, and it's more impowering than the original

[bubba485]

@CupisHomines agreed, and it's more empowering than the original

[IronJudasCrue41]

Diamond Head's version is better, but this is pretty killer

[TheOneFourOne]

Normally I despise covers, (Snoop Dogg ruined "Riders on the Storm," Fall Out Boy ruined "Start Today," DMC ruined "Walk This Way," and Rock Rand ruined every Iron Maiden song in their library,) but with the Gods of Metal, this cover is just plain awesome. You still need to credit Diamond Head for the original, though.

[TheNightwind666]

AM I EVIL YES IM FUCKIN AM!!

[oreobadr]

@TheNightwind666 its a rheotorical question ahahahaha

[Kamil1901]

this song isn't from Kill'em all but Garage inc.

[DEANVX93]

@Kamil1901 well it was officially released on garage inc. but they recorded this version in 1983

[Rocker095150]

@Kamil1901 this was a b-side on the creeping death single

[JustPharmacopeiateMe]

@Kamil1901 It was on the remastered as a bonus track

[metalpunkcore1]

@Kamil1901 it fits the kill em all album cover better though

[lemonademoosejaw]

YAM I EVUL YE' SAI YAM!

[9Calavera6]

YES I AAAAAAAAM

[cowboysrock29]

MetallicA... FTW!! rock on

[residentevlidead]

such brutality
