i'm probably gonna get thumbed down hard for this...but here i go:
these guys are great. not as good as metallica though. is the drummer better than lars? at double kick, yes. but they just don't have that feeling that metallica has.
They will never get big as Metallica even if they are better. They do the same songs and that keeps them small. If they made new songs in the same genre they would kick *ss. + they need better recording equipment. But still they are so good. Does let me think of the early Metallica years ;)
Dude I like more alcohollica than real metallica, I mean the lead guitarrist is better than hammett and the drummer can use the double bass propperly, very different from lars...... And the vocals sound thrashy, not like james cowboy vocals, LOL.
@jrhcowl Mostly anyone except Metallica fanboys can play their stuff better than Metallica does, because they don't learn their bad habits. IMHO. Still, metallica puts on a good show almost every time...
For those who don't know the guitarist, it's understandable why this comment got these 'thumb down' 's. But this guy IS amazing, DEFINITELY more skilled at playing than Kirk. The guy is on par with Darrell Dimebag.
Agreed. Why did my comment get downvoted? If you check my channel, you can see i have favorited so many damn metallica videos! Metallica is my favorite band of all time, and I obviously wouldn't have cheked out this performance if I wasn't a Metallica fan. All I was saying this is the best performance I have seen of this song by a band that isn't Metallica.
SI vous vouler Voir quelque chose de drôle de eux autres, vener voir ma video, Sa se passe a St-jean-sur-richelieu, L'image est excellente, le son du solo on l'entend bien. Si vous regarder ma video je vous consseille de voir le solo qui est a ( 3:40 ) et la fin de la video.
The drummer is insane in this song, there's some mental double bass going on! Thank you for covering the best song ever written with the best cover ever done. It's half 2 in the morning where I am... I've stayed up just listening to your covers lol, they're that good!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE come and play in England!!!!! And while you're at it, play Dyers Eve!
si metallica toco con diamond head, covereando sus rolas, porque jodidos no les dan a estos cabronsotes un solo show, ocho cabrones en escena, pero bueno.. creo que es algo que no pasara seguire soñando.... i wish alcoholica to do original songs, it will be amazing, keep rockin dudes, youre awesome come to mexico, ok, after the influenza madness hahaha xD
Listen carefully to the bass drum in the beginning, he misses that awfully. But the rest is ok :) Still, I think a band should play a cover or two on their OWN gig, with their OWN songs, if this is what thy like it's ok to me. BTW, all of you who say that they should replace metallica, don't you get it that if Metallica didn't exist you won't be listening to this nor half videos on youtube...
even kirk hammet himself cant play the solo better than this guy , and i still ask myself, why gaytallica still exists having this extremely talented individuals playing like this??
What can i say? Flawless cover of the best 'tallica song played far better than metallica live. The only thing that isn't as strong is the vocals but they are still more than adequate, nice one guys.
You talented fuckers!! As a band, playing covers like this is so hard to do cause your own personal sound is always there trying to come out. You guys did a great job, thanks. Made my day.
Wow. More stuff from these guys please. Rather ironic that Metallica themselves could never really play this stuff. It took loads of tape splicing in the studio to get those songs. And these guys manage it live as if they're strolling in the park!
Dude you don't know what the hell your talkin about, I've never ever heard Lars say that he couldn't hold the timing for Dyers Eve. So how the hell would you know?
He did say that actually unfortunately. An interview just after the album came out he said he can't keep the double bass going and keep time, which is why they never played it until like 2 years ago and he doesnt do the double bass when they plya it
@cormermusic i know and lars is awesome because hes straight up with you man, he will tell you that he cant play like he used to and still fuck you up, while he comes only Knee0high to you. LARS RULES!!!! \m/
@rocafella142 Trapped under ice isn't as fast or as constant. It's not the speed Lars lacks, it's the stamina. He can't play very long because he get's tired faster. Thats partially because he's older. It's just fact mate, there's no other reason to take it out because the song lacks greatly without it.
@cormermusic Trapped Under Ice and Dyers Eve the bass are both 16th notes and it's they're both relatively the same bpm. Trapped Under Ice is even more constant becuase he plays the bass 16th notes the entire song except for the short breakdown in the middle. Lars now yes he can't do it. He plays 8th notes double bass in Trapped Under Ice nowadays. But back then he played the 16th notes live. I'm sure he could of played Dyers Eve back then. James didn't want to. Rob is the one who suggested it.
@rocafella142 Again, just look for the interview man. Lars says it himself. And it was when the album came out. He still had his stupid justice mullet. And sorry the trapped under ice tempo is way slower. Trust a drummer, it's alot easier to play but it doesn't take a drummer to hear the difference in tempo speed.
@cormermusic ooook ill see if i can find it. and i didn't say there wasn't a difference, i said they're relative meaning they're only 20 bpm or so different.
this is by far the best cover performance of this song in my opinion
