Death Is Not The End (Studio Demo) It's A COVER!!

[MrDR7no]

damn it should be on the album...

[MrDanteaguilar]

I like this song more than the whole Death Magnetic album. Yes, I know this is not Metallica.

[frogger249]

OMG Lars doing double bass? ahahahahahahahaaaa

[LONESHARPSHOOTER1]

So if it's not Metallica who originally made it, who did? & what's the title?

[meatywand2009]

@LONESHARPSHOOTER1

I believe it was done by a band called Hi-Gain Harmonic Haze, personally I like the instrumental version better...not a fan of the lead singers voice.

[midnighteevee12]

Is This Song Just Bits And Pieces Of The Whole Death Magnetic Album Songs

[MrDanteaguilar]

This song by itself is better than the whole death magnetic album. Perfect tuning, good drums and great vocals.

[CiviC092]

the intro is the end of the line.. sounds like its done harmonically though

[HCWwrestling11]

its not Metallica, the band's name is Eternal Decision, they're a Christian heavy metal band. Im not sure who stole the song from who though lol

[Daftajest]

@HCWwrestling11 This song is a post-St. Anger song. The beggining got put into End of the Line, and 4:45-5:16 got put into All Nightmare Long.

A lot of Eternal Decision songs DID get thrown onto Limewire as Metallica demos though, which I think is bullshit. But hell, that's what Cory gets for trying to sound like Papa Het.

[angry81]

it was a kick ass song..awesome and very heavy

[SteelPatras]

Ok we've talked about this being a cover over a 1000 times. The question is......whats the name of the band called that covers this song? And Vulturous also?

[slade535]

The Crowns... its said at the beginning of the vid ;)

[warrenwillard]

It's not actually a band. It's one guy. I know because it's me! I recorded this and Vulturous way back aftery Metallica first played them live. I played all the guitar/bass parts. The drums were sequenced with midi and run through EZ drummer. If you go to my youtube page and listen to my Grinch cover you'll hear my unmistakable (haha) voice.

PS - I don't know who 'The Crowns' are. But whoever they are they had nothing to do with this cover.

[lunne14]

@warrenwillard it sounds awesome dude :D heard it when you posted it back in the day and i've had it on my Mp3 player since :D

[ajrapps]

Harmonic Haze

[grandtheftautocj]

to me this doesnt sounds like metallica

[cheparo5]

not james

[snowygrave]

James i love your your vocals on the live video but the studio version can't touch your live sound, live you seem more serious, make the vocals more like your live sound, i think live this song is nothing but pure magic

[itsmark123]

This isn't metallica...

[JaviVS]

maybe cuz its not james

HA

[jeevus720]

the beginning riff 0-45 is in song#2 death magetic called the end of the line and 4:45-5:16 is the riff in all nightmare long song #5. parts of this song were used on death magnetic good album metallica forever

[MeTaLiZoPo]

@jeevus720 you right

[Ltndoom]

omfg this is fucking awesome!!!!!!!!!

[seanjohn135]

lol sounds like mustaine playing in his metallica pajamas

[bigbigjohnlee]

sure as the hell doesn't sound like James to me!

[vajespltd]

almost sounds like Motorhead. O.o

[Expkochan]

I actually like the vocals :) Great cover, 5 stars.

[AtheistThrasher]

yeah music is better than original but vocals suck

[Robw449]

everyones commenting about bits that were and werent on death magnetic...

has nobody else noticed how kick ass the bass drum is in the chorus? :P

turns me on ;)

[kastas666]

Riffs from this song ended in "End Of The Line" and "All Nightmare Long". This version is pretty good, it would've made a good song on the new album had they worked it out a bit more.

[migicalbiker7]

this has a good beet but eh singing suck(^_^)!!!

[Tragamin06]

they should have left the cool riff in the actual song

[Nazareeni]

3:28 - 4:45 should have been used in Death Magnetic.

It just sounds. Cool.

[Nazareeni]

Wait, it actually was used. Just way more thrashier.

[sslayerr]

very good job man

[lordi]

this song is not on the album some parts have been used ona song called sucide and redemption and its an instrumental on death magnetic!!

[Metallica84052]

Also there are a few parts of the song that were used in the second track on the album "Death Magnetic" "The End of Line" is the name of this track the opening riff was used anyway.

[calummorris1993]

except that they have this "the death is not the end" in D tuning i think it sounds a bit sweet that step down lol ...

[hermanliisthemessiah]

so this is a cover..of an upcoming metallica song?

i doubt it, this is way better than anything they could do.

[klashnikov1117]

listen to u guys... this dudes voice sucks... metallica all the way dude james owns dem

[VictorLazarus]

The more I hear this the more I like that guys voice. I think the only reason people don't like it is cos its not James.

MVL.

[mabata777]

This very good pace but James Hetfield has to improve voice

[capridrifter]

This is a cover of a studio demo...lol I don't care for the the vocals but the rest of it is ok

[coolmonkey1996]

i case you haven't figured it out this isn't james

[sonicfan200]

If this is the way the song is on the album...

FUCKING WIN!!!!!!!

[Bowtome09]

its not... A song called the End of the line has some of the same riffs though

[Nazareeni]

These dudes should cover Cyanide.

[thepreacher89]

So who`s that song in original ? Bob Dylan song with same title is not this song

[Julio17523755]

good cover dude! good job

[dtz420]

dude if you dont think this is metallica ur retarted cuz they played it live I WAS THERE!! so just stop acting like you know what ur talking about

[jamie141999]

LOL, its a cover you tard

[meiklamak2]

TO ALL THE STUPID PEOPLE : IT'S A ONE MAN BAND COVER..so don't say the voice sounds old..almost not like james..or stuff like that, because this is NOT METALLICA!

to all the people who are bashing this guy : you try covering an unknown live awfull-played song, and sound better than this..

U PPL SUCK! STFU!

nice cover:>

[meiklamak2]

THIS IS A COVER YOU STUPID MINDLESS PEOPLE..YOU ARE WORTH LESS THAN THE FILTH UNDER MY NAILS!

nice cover btw :P

[sentus]

its even in the title "IT'S A COVER" :) instruments are great, but vocal khhh i don't like it... :/ peace

[chris3235]

FUCK SAKE THIS ISNT METALLICA...PEOPLE WHO ARE SAYING "KIRK DONE A GREAT SOLO" IT ISNT KIRK..SO BE QUIET!!!

i like this cover

[billpappin]

awesome song! and remember... it's only a demo. the songs on the album are going to be even better.

[TWVR]

Same here man.. Crushing song!

[ECILYalways]

for me it's a awesome song !!!!!

[chris3235]

drums are amazing

[ColeD24]

Uh no, these drums are extremely boring. Lars Ulrich is a truly awful drummer. Tomas Haake, Dirk Verbeuren, Gavin Harrison, and Marco Minneman put him to shame.

[headm4st3r]

i think james can fix the vocals a little, but love the fact that he is trying to make his voice alot deeper. all in all i love this cover and awesome solo for kirk as expected he is the best. having kirk and syn gates do a solo duet would be great!!!! ^-^

[morespice]

it's an old song dating back to 2006...don't even know if its going to be on the new album...and let me tell you james voice is so fucking better than this !

[headbanger667]

THEY ARE BACK TO KICK YOUR ASS!!!!

- I like James' voice in this album.

- It sounds like thrash!

- It would be better, if it was faster...but i like it :)

METALLICA IS BACK

[aaronyeates]

this isn't hetfields vocals ....

its a studio cover of when they did it live!

[meiklamak2]

this is a cover u nub!

[metallicaepsilon]

Death Magnetic

[TheSilencer1313]

Sweet sound dude, I like the vocals.

[meiklamak2]

it's a cover nub!

[headbanger667]

Ok, it's a cover, retard.

are you happy now?

By the way, insults are not necessary to correct mistakes of other people.

[m0wdamn]

According to the "Mission Metallica"-Trailers, it seems like the basic riff of this song will be in the album.

[metallifreak100]

not necessarily, some of the videos they are showing are pretty old, some from 2006 when they were first writing the song.. maybe it is gonna be used but who knows

[666inflames]

Very nice cover^^

Vocals could have been better though :\

But except that, its really good :)

[dransdell101]

man i tell ya!these guys are harsh on here.i think this guy did a hella good job.one man band??damn!people are too quick to criticize!it is art!if you don't like it don't listen!!!

[mianre]

well, how the fuck are you suppose to criticize if you dont listen???

[TheFearlessHobee]

The singer sounds sorta like a mix of Hetfield and Bruce Dickinson

[Aeroheadv1]

Yeah, aside from the STATED fact that this is a cover band, I'd like to address the song.

Anyone been to MissionMetallica and seen "1st Fly On The Wall?" Sounds like the opening riff to this.  Can't wait to hear the final product.

[Foxereno]

What's good about this is that it isn't a cover band, it is one person doing it all!

Goes by the name of "hi-gain harmonic haze". He used backing drums from a program he has, and sang + played the guitars himself.

[dan3232]

Kick ass job i think especially for one guy - do you knwo what the name of the drum program he used? I'd like to get it

[hairmetal84]

this is not metallica. not by any stretch of the imagination is this metallica.

[stigmarto]

it sound like elmer fud out of the bugs bunny cartoons lol

[1337dav31337]

it's a fucking cover...

[cst06015]

indeed mate... Omg Rofl :P

[RIZZOROCKER]

nice cover i like the song and i like this i hope they put it on a single or a bonus track or something

[qwerty0900]

im glad to hear its not making the album sad to say this song is better than any song on st anger

[thomguls]

They are using bit of the "new songs" in other song on the album so parts of it will be on the album.

[Abismo85]

what's up with the beat mistakes

[blueorchid69]

this is just a jam. this song isnt making the album. thank god

[meiklamak2]

it's a cover.and it will prob. be on the album!

[deadline27]

i dunno, sounds alot like lars' sloppy double bass to me... and yeah i can blow him out of the water on drums if you are wondering why i said that.

[jollyjoe1989]

nobody cares ha

[18003333474]

hey let them jealous man...YOU'VE GOT A WONDERFUL VOICE...its unique and IMPRESSIVE ABOVE ALL....keep it up dude....loved it

[godlikecharacta]

metallica needs to stop fucking around and deliver another song like "master of puppets" or "one", and dare i say "enter sand man"

[slvrguitar]

AHA what a poser i bet those are the only metallica songs you know so you just use those those as examples

[glpjunior]

haha:)

[godlikecharacta]

For Whom The Bell Tolls, No Remorse, The Four Horsemen, Harvester Of Sorrow,Damage Inc.., Dyers Eve, Seek And Destroy.... Anything Else Shit Bag?

[Darkdayzz]

backing u up here Struggle Within My friend of misery Of Wolf and Man Battery Orion To live is to Die The Unnamed feeling Fade to Black Trapped under ice need i go on?? ^^

[DuelistDx]

Pwnt:P

[justiciainfinita]

Pure shit. Get some ear lessons XD

[Alzash]

Awesome. Your voice could use some work, but nothing major.

[metalbassist450]

great job, work a bit on the voice a bit more, and it will be awesome. \,,/

[dannybb65]

Endlich mal wieder wat richtiges . Danny BB65 ( Drummer)

[kenan6346]

dude I WANT THE MP3 this is some sick shit mate, kudos :D

[WoIfRaiser]

I heard this demo and I thought it was decent from Metallica, but something was wrong with Jame's singing, of course I blamed it on being a demo and you know, we all know what we can sound like if we try to make a song ourselves haha. But I actually think, for the first time, that a metallica cover is better ( so far ) than the original. And I'm a musician myself since im a kid and im very picky when it comes to music. Great fucking job guys, keep it up.

[Poldendrol]

The instrumental part is awesome, but you should rly work on your singing. It kinda sucks tbh.

[OHMYGOTTTT]

i dont care what other people say your voice is cool keep it up men ;D

[OHMYGOTTTT]

nice =D

[ThaHammett]

I like the original,but that´s not Godfather Hetfield´s voice,like you wrote on top,a cover,a good instrumental cover but the voice is rubbish

[niki0205]

this is metallica's song!!! but not played by metallica...

to me,singer sounds like dave mustaine...

[meiklamak2]

it's a cover:D

[B1nXx]

man better than nothing... an the voice is quite good too.. not a james, for sure, but a good alternative, especially for me cause ive enough of the live version by metallica themselfes :P

[nick666theman]

Worst hetfield cover ever?

[thetoon1963]

not bad, if its a cover band playin a metallica song

[Darkguille]

it's metallica's song.. but it isnt metallica playing.. just read the description! "The new studio demo from metallica, played by a cover band" it's a cover

[4horsemensite]

Sigh...first of all the song is not called death is not the end, thats just the name fans have called it based on the lyrics in the song....in no way has that name been made official...2nd, yes this is a metallica song but its someone else playing it, their version in other words...metallica definitly do not sound like that, metallica have a much thicker and crunchier sound and theres no warmth or feel either, it sounds completely sterile and robotic like it was enerated from a fucking computer

[spikelee2u]

the song is called death is not the end! and it is metallica!

[sergdude]

its beter than vulturous but not as good as the old metallica

[BMJ2008]

Its Metallica but that for sure aint fucking JAMES singing!

[spikelee2u]

it is metallica guys!! you can find this song played by metallica just her on youtube, search for metallica new song in berlin!!

they played it live

[chronicdays]

It is a Metallica song that is being performed as a cover by a different band. Metallica has said they have no plans on releasing this and the other new song on the new album!

[tomfrankly]

no u

[turbogladiator007]

Oh my god guys.

WTF?? Couldn't you hear that this is not metallica. Hetfield'voice is totally different than this crap of shit. OMG!!!!

Stop upload things like this!!

[DreamingofMetallica]

studio versions are supposed to b better than the live version that worse!! and the drums r all wrong

[fnm1991]

im so fuckin pissed

i lost my wallet before i went to work, and i just got back from work like an hour ago and i have been looking for it ever since, and i still cant find it...

i had like 120 bucks in that bitch too...

im kind of pissed.

[thehubbucks]

I like it when people break up the monotomy with random stuff!!! Well done (for the comment) sorry about your wallet....

[sergdude]

no one cares

[KissMeImPunk]

Definitely better than that other new song..

[Yamumsa]

READ THE FUCKING DESCRIPTION.

ITS NOT JAMES

ITS NOT METALLICA

ITS A COVER

A COVER OF A SONG METALLICA HAVE WRITTEN

THAT WON'T BE ON THE ALBUM

Anyone that comments saying otherwise is a fucking retard.

[kollmorgen91]

[Metalbaswee]

[kollmorgen91]

[Metalbaswee]

[spikelee2u]

loosers cant get a life!! so dou a favor!! kill yor self!

[kollmorgen91]

i do have to agree with spike on the kill your self part

[grafiteballoon7]

oo its not james. thank god

[grafiteballoon7]

haha sounds like hetfield just killed his voice

[fajd]

k this song is pretty good i can see metallica playing this but i hope the other songs they have are better cuz this is definatley not their best

[cnb419]

I heard that only little bits and pieces of the two demo songs they played last summer will be on the new album.

[surferirl]

ok maybe read the description it says PLAYED BY A COVER BAND.but it is a metallica song theres live vids of thm playing it

[ExtraordinaryPunk]

Lol how can you think this is James omg!This is a cover from a band.Read the fckin descreption.

[Metallicaman75]

Fake , it's not Metallica ut the rill sound is amazing!

[97warlock]

Yeh BUT- The other songs that everyone is saying is a FAKE.....Is NOT a Fake!! New Metallica kicks Ass!!!!!!!!! Hell yeh!! Search google for the song titles + Metallica - New Metallica 2008 Sounds Awesome!

[ashleymacburnie]

i've seen this live, they say it will be on the new album

[METPETI]

the track is fucking cool but James isn't good in this song.

Metallica forever!!!!!!!

[cazguitar]

yeah this is a cover, But search death is not the end and you can find tallica playing this live

[Latte759]

Please read the description before commenting, people.

[KoRnLike3]

Thats not james voice

[navylaks2]

That is not MetaillicA i have heard this cover before it sounds more like a Megadeth wannybe.

[tr00p3r4]

The vocals are the worst ever!

James sounds like a drunken country singer with stumache-ache

[beeforsalmon1]

jesus fucking christ its a cover, read the fucking info

[myrkul777]

A fucking terrible cover. That guy should remove his vocal chords- he can't sing.

[Nazareeni]

No offense but they covered this from a - not even determined by the actual band - live performance. I didn't see anyone else make a better cover. That was just fucking harsh.

[natazer]

its a pretty good recording for an idiot--fucking write something original pussy

[smoku46]

its not james

[thetadigital]

This is not metallica. Its a song titled Overflow by Eternal Decision.  Look it up youreternaldecision on myspace.

[Joozie1990]

Dude... this is a song from metallica from their new album. Even i know that xDD

[smoku46]

its not from the new album.... new album is developed under some new producer and they said the previous material will be scrapped

[Dybrosen]

This song is so awesome !

[cnb419]

Lars could only dream of being that good of drummer

[JaymzLea]

Then... dream come true, man.

[stefanlappie]

this aint james

[Joozie1990]

in the description it says it is a cover? xD

[mtg8321]

I love the music...since I ignore James's vocals now a day, it wasn't too much of a stretch to ignore this guy's singing either, but he still sounds better than what Hetfield sounds like now.

[DanishPastry]

When I hear this song with a more "clear" sound than those live videoes, I actaully hear how good the riffs are. This song would really rock if played by Metallica

[satchito]

He sings half Mustaine half the guy from Beatallica LOL!!!

[EGObrainWarbird]

OH MY GOD THIS SONG IS SO FUCKING BLITZKRIEG!!!!this song kicks ass.

[Ackbar51194]

THANK YOU GOD/SATAN.

[88blackened88]

fuckin brilliant cover i must say!

[parasereterno]

im starting to think that all these metallica "new song" videos that come out on youtube just might be metallica but there just covered by that one band just like in this video.

these past years since St.Anger

maybe made metallica relize that they need to step it up a bit and just maybe they have and possibly will......

[klops11]

You're right

[FretFryer001]

haha this cover vocalist sucks!

[syj1109]

mmmmm..... who did this karaoke??????

cuz this song is from tallica but.....the singer souns like a "Popeye Marihuano" lol!

[n1rvana4ev3r]

Bass is a little bit late at the beginning.

[hardysatan]

This song is mad as, I would love to hear Metallica play it.

[morrice13]

heard some other stuff called like 'fetish' and 'back to anger' too, same kind of popeye voice that hets got take it thats not tallica either (eternal decision?) still, ok listening to it, will listen to them seen as how the real alternative's taking its time....

[GazBaker666]

Of course it isnt james, read the video description, its a cover band. Its just an idea of what a studio version of the song might sound like
