[methanoic80]

[Scoffman5150]

[bryanslash]

greetings from mexico thrashers

[lebannerfan65]

I've got the first gen vid of this....

[qettyz]

@lebannerfan65 You really should share it!

[ohgoditsjames94]

They were still speed freaks when, I know for a fact this isn't sped up.

[queenville]

@ohgoditsjames94 well it can't be a fact when it's not correct, because it is sped up - everything is a half-step higher than it should be and listen to james' voice, this is just a year before the legendary seattle gigs and it's just not possible that his voice could have changed so much

[ohgoditsjames94]

@queenville His voices was so much better in 88, in my opinion, because the higher notes were so much harsher and sounded more like the album

[cormermusic]

@ohgoditsjames94 this is sped up and you can tell because even the intro track that is a recording is higher pitched.

[comeonewtf]

Best version. I wish I could see it in video.

[gerbile3]

holy fuck

i want to play drums that fast

and of course with practice you can

[maZae96]

Lippuja ovelta tuntia ennen :D näinköhän on riittänyt

[Yazkamaniac]

@maZae96 Radio Rockia kuunnellessa oon saanut käsityksen, että Klaus Flaming oli tolla keikalla ja mies tuumi että "lisääkin olisi sisään mahtunut". En tiiä sitte tarkottiko hän sitä että halli ei tullut täyteen vai että ihan kaikki liput ei menneet kaupaksi. Toista se on tosiaan ollut ennen nettiä toi lippujen hommailu. Oi aikoja, oi tapoja. :D

[METALLICA6547]

@aatefmagic no believe it or not just bored/excited mixed with a little narsosistic rage!!!

[METALLICA6547]

@aatefmagic i got so pumped listening to this i almost fell to the floor on my side and started spining myself around in circles with one leg

[StephaneGregoire1234]

Those Helsinki versions were pitch/speed-altered, but slightly. Raising the pitch raise the speed as well, if you used a tracking software you know what I mean.

Compare the bridge of 'Master' live in Helsinki '88: 6EitSBLw1ZQ with the remixed one here (3'10): xd9R3svz9Zg

They only performed in Helsinki once in 88 on 10-15

The stage setting is also the same from the video and the shot from the current slideshow.

Still, the remix is excellent. At least it wasn't chipmunk'ed :-p

[hlli999]

What a badass setlist

[1xcrosswordx1]

i hate to say it.... but both of ya could be right, cuz metallica was known to alter their tuning slightly. take any number of concerts from the 80's. i don't think this one has been sped up, but whatever. lets just say it wasnt. makes em even more badass.

[dixie60]

this is brutal as hell. why the fuck did it have to happen 2 years before i was born :(

[HighLifetage]

can you make this sogn available on E standard tuning, if possible?

[ThePistonHead23]

@HighLifetage It is E noob. 

[HighLifetage]

@ThePistonHead23 no, you idiot. Who do you think you are to call me a noob? the song is played in E tuning, but the record is half a step up! dumbass (if you dont agree, listen to the studio version of the song... and then tell me if the tuning is the same in this recording)

[ThePistonHead23]

@HighLifetage Who do you think you are to ask me who do you think i am? It was played in E end of discussion. The crappy recording equipment means that it seems to be slightly higher but nevertheless it was still played in E. Probably just a sped up tape.

[HighLifetage]

@ThePistonHead23 thats why im asking for the original, played on E, you stupid! first think before talking to me...

[ThePistonHead23]

@HighLifetage 'You stupid'. How about you utilize a dictionary prior to talking to me. This IS the original. Unless there is another source out there e.g. soundboard or another tape that hasn't been stuffed up, the only way to get it into E is to modify it using audacity ala campoobutt.

Come at me bro.

[metallica9377]

@HighLifetage It's Possible,but I can't.

[Hotrodx199]

@HighLifetage it is in e standing until 1995

[Abyssvx]

@Hotrodx199 It's pitched higher. It's the recording.

[Silverblood88]

holy fucking shit this is so fuckin brutal i love it!!

[pkurru]

"Lippuja tuntia ennen ovelta" Yeah right... nykyään ne menee tunnissa siitä kun ne tulee myyntiin.

[tmochee]

[1xcrosswordx1]
