[OrochiSoldier]

[24fRaMeSps001]

@YousifNael I think u have to know the Cthulu mythos to fully understand the song ;)

[anime4354]

CTHULHU FOR PRESIDENT!!!

[MrBlackfox500]

[popZoro]

Jesus Christ all these comments about fucking antichrist or bieber are making me sick. They are talking about Cthulhu! The great old one who is dead but sleeping in the city of R'lyeh. He's a god that looks like a mix of human, squid and dragon. inb4 LOL CTHULHU KILLED BIEBER IN SOUTH PARK LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLODFLGKÖG SO FUNNEH!1!11!!!!1

[Brk40]

Didn't Cthulu kill Bieber?

[kingedje94]

XD

[ZalderktheGamer]

this is a note for anyone who listens to this and says that this is about anti christ or christianity or greed i would say get stuffed and look on google any of these

1. Dagon and c-thulhu link

2. H.P. lovecraft

or just C-thulhu

ok backt to the song

[venomdeth55]

Cthulu will rise and will be led by Metallica's METAL!!!

[DX7036]

Lulu...

[Adoyabu]

ok i really thought i wasent going to see a JB comment then theres one like 7 comments below me, its really starting to pissme off, i have as much hate for him as the next guy, but shut up, and listen to the awesomeness that is Metallica!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! get it. got it. GOOD!!!

[ChubbyGregLord]

The Thing That Should no be is Cthulu which is a god mentioned in a H.P. Lovecraft short story. He's pretty bad-ass, and the fact that you guys are comparing Cthulu with Beiber is pretty insulting to Cthulu, a giant squid god.

[NersorTheCow]

too much WoW :P



[Facehate666]

@ChubbyGregLord His name's Cthulhu, he's an alien and he's not even a great old one, and actually, the thing that should not be is Nyogtha in the Cthulhu universe anyway.

[popZoro]

@Facehate666

Cthulhu isn't an alien... He's a great old one, a god.

[Facehate666]

@popZoro An Alien is just a being from a different place, so Cthulhu is an Alien.

[popZoro]

@Facehate666

But Cthulhu isn't from another place. He's in Earth.

[Facehate666]

@popZoro He sleeps in the sunken city of R'lyeh, but he's not a being from our world, he's from the eternal void outside the fabric of the universe where the daemon sultan Azathoth reigns.

[mrmaggot6699]

@ChubbyGregLord *Cthulhu

P.S. : Cthulhu ftagn.

[redwing104]

just being picky here but it should be spelled: 'Not dead which eternal lie, stranger aeons death may die' ^^

[Zetsubou12345]

@redwing104 Fag

[redwing104]

@Zetsubou12345 ...right.

[mrcrowley278]

IN 5 days i ll be on Metallica's concert in dubai!!

[xadrezistashow]

the thing that should not be is justin bieber be still alive

[nerdmurderer]

One of metallicas best and most underrated songs

[gunzmstr]

u speled WHICH rong

[TheSwoyer]

@gunzmstr you spelled spelled and wrong wrong :D

[krycklund]

Have a potato!

[BlueFireBringer]

2 people should be.

[SenHai]

i think people fell into madness for disliking

[kuznetsov25]

is the shadow over innsmouth

[maksphoto78]

"Crawling Chaos" and "messenger of fear" is Nyarlathotep, one of the Outer Gods. This song isn't inspired by one particular story by Lovecraft, but by many different stories which portray Old Ones, Deep Ones (and their hybrid spawn), and a hole plethora of malignant Gods from outer space.

[armenius28]

@maksphoto78 hm..in the end...this is about the antichrist......

Thit song is another illuminati proclaiming song ...nothing more nothing less....

They sold there soul for fame...like all rich and famous people

[optiluiz]

@armenius28 You've never read Lovecraft have you? Does Cthulhu ring a bell? Dagon, perhaps?

[armenius28]

@optiluiz Of course i know that stuff...but that stuff is still inspired or even from fallen angels

[optiluiz]

@armenius28 I believe Lovecraft was an atheist...

[armenius28]

@optiluiz Exactly what the esserene cult wanted back then...i can't explain it here on tube to you....but there is something called a masterplan....yuo have to see a vid with a guy who explains it..he is called monroe...check the vid you will find something...with satanism and monroe in the searchbar

[elchichodeltren]

300 likes! this is MEEEEETAAAAAALLIIIIIIIICAAAAAA­AAAA!

[suprsonickath]

I thought it was about Hastur before I read the book in the lyrics, Hastur being Cthulus half brother.

[metallboy96]

Well "Forbidden City" isn't that R'yleh, Cthulu's underwater domain? xD

[DragonGamer91]

james hetfield is the metatron

[chopgr]

Its talking about Dagon or Ktulhu?

[weirdvideoscentral]

@chopgr about all gods crawling chaos aka nyarlathotep the nameless city hastur cthulhu dagon. and much more than that

[popZoro]

@chopgr

Cthulhu, "Crawling Chaos" and such. Dagon too maby?

[playwithursoul]

I don't know why, but for some reason, I see this song as a prelude to Dethklok's Murmaider, and Murmaider II. Almost as if it weren't for this song, Murmaider, and Murmaider II wouldn't even exist.

[UnforgivenRocker96]

the thing that should not be with lyrics :P

[1dani23]

OH YEAH I GOT THE ALBUM TODAY FOR MY BIRTHDAY! SO HAPPY :D METALLICA HTE BEST!

dave mustaine saw this video

lol

[popZoro]

Damnit, this song reminds me about Cthulhu. Is it just me?

[Fransman123]

@popZoro My thoughts exactly.

[ilovepantera97]

@popZoro it´s about him :)

[Aeris16Fr]

I always knew this song performed by The Sins of thy Beloved, I didn't know that the original was from Metallica... Shame on me >_<

But I prefere The Sins of thy Beloved's version ^^

[Korn1992rockymetal]

jaja intro .. PANTERA ROSA xD

[ebanezaar]

If you ask me you're all right. Cliff burton,who wrote this song, wanted to included as much as he could of the Cthulu Mythos wich he revered above all things. C'mon guys, stop guessing and start reading about this Legend that was one of the GREATEST bass player of all time :)

[ynot333333]

"Hunter of the shadows is rising", means the awakening and the protests that will amplify soon (it's an archetype)

. Hybrid children is what we all are--genetically manipulated from our cosmic cousins. The ultimate challenge for us individually and collectively, is to face the thing that should not be---our deepest fear---the darkness that rules this planet.

[ynot333333]

This song is about the state of the current world construct, back then, and now.

[mtldrmr]

@ynot333333 this song is about ctuhlu as he was portrayed in hp lovecrafts stories as the thing that shouldnt be described.

[popZoro]

@ynot333333

Nope, its about Cthulhu.

[reaper2963]

To clarify, this song revolves around most of the important components of the Cthulhu Mythos, such as Shadow over Innsmouth ( hybrid children watch the sea, pray for father roaming free), Azathoth/Nyarlathotep (crawling chaos underground, cult has summoned twisted sound), and the rest revolves around the Great Old One, Cthulhu

[SerkantKnight]

I thought it was about "The Shadow over Innsmouth", I read the book.

[OneWingAngel1000]

I'm thinking this song is more about Cthulhu and Dagon, but there is a reference to Azathoth\Nyalarthotep at 2:32

"Crawling Chaos"

[BurrfootDK]

From the best Metallica album EVER

[hasjkdhlsjakDHLASJKD]

good old fucking days



[LonewolfeE5]

love that slow intro

[JokeriSokeri]

Cthulhu!

[Santer4200]

A fearsome song!

[MaxDamageProductions]

The thing that should not be disliked this.

[jstsaymo]

@MaxDamageProductions Hell yeah LOL Rock On Brother!!!

[Lakysification]

One of the best Metallica songs

[SuperQwertybob]

@Lakysification i agree entirely

[IronSashimi]

@Lakysification all the musics of metallica are the best

[Boid55]

That ending....just gives you the feeling that Cthulu us still out there....gives me chills everytime

[Clike666ness]

@Boid55

Unfortunatly this song isn't about Cthulhu. It's about the Shadow over Innsmouth. Which is about man/fish hybrids. Which are the things that should not be.

[Boid55]

@Clike666ness Uhh wrong it's definatly about Cthulu because i've read about this song and the H.P Lovecraft story was the inspiration behind this song

[Clike666ness]

@Boid55

The Shadow over Innsmouth is an other story in the whole Cthulhu Mythos of H.P. Lovecraft but it focusses more on Dagon and his man/fish hybrid followers.

[mtldrmr]

@Boid55 which story cuz H.P Lovecrafts Cthulu Mythos is lots of short stories. Cthulu is metnioned in many of his stories, and in many other stories from the authors in Lovecrafts Circle. And those influenced by him. The thing that shouldnt be can refer to Cthulu or anyone of the many dieties in his stories. Cthulu isnt even the center nor the most powerfull of lovecrafts creations. If you like the Cthulu mythos, or Lovecrafts work, you should deffinately check out. "The King In Yellow"

[SgtGonji]

@mtldrmr But how many are famous for "watching, lurking beneath the sea" , influencing madness, and coming from R'lyeh (ruined city, living death)? I don't mean to sound condescending but all of the evidence seems to point to Cthulhu. Just sayin'.

[musikrammstein]

AMAZING!

[AntonisManUtd]

i love hear lars ulrich in the thing that should not be and justice for all!! one of the best drummers!!!!!

[MultiDannyboy89]

@AntonisManUtd Ehh, I don't really love Lars. He gets the job done, but I think Charlie Benante is better.

[redwing104]

@MultiDannyboy89 Lars has a couple interesting drum lines, but nah he isnt that complex in his playing.

[MrMatt29999]

@AntonisManUtd niko mcbrain and danny carey are both far better

[Clike666ness]

@AntonisManUtd

Lol you are one of the first to say that.

[AntonisManUtd]

i lovone of the bset e hear lars ulrich in the thing that should not be and justice for all one of the best drummers!!!!!

[geri121]

one thing that should not be saw this video ;D

[dani1928]

Cthulu is the best

[joujoc123]

1 bieber fan here.. lol

[VegetaSuperSayanAQW]

@TacticalPukeEmil What's wrong with it?...

[Mdtank0]

@VegetaSuperSayanAQW He's saying that "this thing" (this song) Should Not Be With Lyrics.

Which is: This thing should not be with lyrics.

[Methoswicca]

Dagon disliked this video :)

[paulf25]

Every time i wanna just relax and fall asleep listening to metallica, its impossible because i always end up just air guitaring.

[ungface]

I love this song, and call of the ktulu. It really captures the lovecraftian spirit

[SlightlyDepressive]

@ungface Cthulu

[ungface]

@SlightlyDepressive i was referring to the metallica song, spelt "the call of Ktulu" so stfu

[vortexcito]

one of the most darkest (lyrically and musically) songs ever written in metal!

[TheBeaglebite]

[szalaiandris]

I was the hundredth person who liked this fucking awesome song!

[Triakis2011]

@szalaiandris I should have been number 1, but hell 88 or whatever it was will have to do.

[kuru93]

how much pure metal lyrics and guitar combination can u put in 6 and half minutes? here is your answer.

[thecannonball34]

is this song about cthulu or the kraken?

[ImKevin15]

@thecannonball34

Cthulhu, there are some hints to that in the song, like Great Old One, stranger eons dead may die etc.

[teenmetalfreak3]

Timeless sleep

Has been upset

He awakens

Hunter of the Shadows is rising

OH SHIT!

[Triakis2011]

"Drain you of your sanity Face the thing that should not be" - sums up my sister.

[Triakis2011]

Dammit! Why is this song so God damn good? Hell, I am going to cycle this until I get ear-drum cancer.

[Triakis2011]

Why is this song so good?

[worldtaker999]

@Triakis2011 "Why is this song so good?" It's like asking "Why is chocolate so sweet?".

[Triakis2011]

I know, I just cannot believe that such an amazing song can exist. Damn I hope I never get my ears blown off.

[JulioSarreon]

me encanta como empieza el solo se escucha como una risa malevola jajaja

[LoveBouMiku]

the beginning of solo reminds me of and angry laughing witch lol xD awesong tough

Hail Cthulhu

[ValterBlackDemon]

Probably the BEST headbanger EVER...

[dababoe]

Is this song about cthulhu? I'm not retarded,i'm just asking

[JimyDylan]

@dababoe Yes it's true but it's not about Cthulhu it's more the whole Lovecraft's myth "Hybric children watch the sea" is about "the nightmare of Innsmouth", "Crawling Chaos" and " Hunter of the night" is more for Yog Sothoth and Nyarlatothep (two other Great old ones)

[dababoe]

@JimyDylan ok,not that i know lovecrafts stories.

[MetalFanx2000]

Um, i think Metallica should be with lyrics, and i don't think they will be to happy calling them just a "thing" they are more than that. :D

[metallicarulz12345]

yes i am

[shadowthingey]

Respond to this video... ahh not really good

[bekka164]

awesome song! i wish metallica would come were i live. but they have already come and wouldnt let any one under 18 in the concert.... which sucks! love metallica! <3

[chauconvos]

I Love it (Y)

[WierdBeard6991]

awesome-ness :D

[Metabeen1]

I love the intro and the solo, it creeps people out of bed.

[MultiDannyboy89]

@Metabeen1 Actually, I don't like the solo that much. I'm not a big fan of Kirk, though I once thought he was awesome. I think Dave Mustaine and Marty Friedman are better.

[blank21121]

@Metabeen1 Creeps me out of bed to go and lock my door. because i can hear sopping wet footsteps, and inhuman gurgling coming from the outside.

[Phlemancy]

story of my life

[IHaveNoRealUsername]

@Phlemancy story of your life?

so you're a menacing fictional creature that H.P Lovercraft writes about?

[MurphBucket1]

@IHaveNoRealUsername you mean that H.P. Lovecraft wrote about, he died in 1937............. so yeah :D
