Metallica - Blackened (live)

[sixshooter500]

Why does Rock Am Ring concerts have such bad sound? It's not Metallica, I find this with many bands in Rock Am Ring.

[thrashmetal4life1]

fucking love their tone here!

[PinguHitlerParodies]

my mate had this taped back in the day and we watched it like every night

[kymon117]

love that shot at 0:49 where the backlight is surrounding James' head.

[mitenka1ae]

whos oldies here?! hetfield seventeen!!

[DeepSevenfold]

scott ian from anthrax has said that this was one of the best metallica shows he has ever seen

[theAyak808]

this is great...

[sunmachine2]

The sound of the guitars makes my dick bigger

[avadi89]

the solo is CRAP. Comparing the CD version and the live version is just not worth it. I really like metallica but is a big dissapointment seeing that they dont play even a solo that sounds like the original one.

[wdowa94]

Ok, they are thrashing, but this sound, this voice... .Awful like Metallica

[pmanderson]

0:02 Holy fuck is that fast or what?!

[jrbassgod]

rob makes the song look easy

[Odiin666]

look all those recitifiers..:O

[ScottAOwen]

The tone on the guitars in this are beastly

[StickArenaProzDude]

@ScottAOwen I love the Bass in James' guitar.

[aaqaaqaaqaaqaaqaaqaa]

Bass plaer needs to loosen his strap a little more.

[666SHADOWDIED]

@aaqaaqaaqaaqaaqaaqaa hahah

[williamtrevormcneil]

@aaqaaqaaqaaqaaqaaqaa (coughs) Rob Trujillo*

[MyNevermindme]

FUCKING FAST!!!!!! MUTHAFUCKAH!

[sasha2007kaz]

I like metallica s rifff, but do not like the solo.

[balls2balls]

takes a lot of talent to play that tempo in the bitter cold man sometimes your muscles just cant fire up. metallica for life.

[HeartlessNobody1314]

@balls2balls i agree, when you play in the cold its hard to get loose enough to play properly. Plus this was 2003, Lars has improved alot since then

[skiballer23]

kirk doesnt age

[petefader]

damn solo sucks.

[1107tang]

Metallica au top, ce groupe dégage une énergie incroyable

[3acdc3mtlca]

james is robbing a bank with the road crew after the show

[GuitarmanMo]

@3acdc3mtlca looks like he mita already robbed lars drum kit and kirks soloing skills

[Slimshadyfcb]

the solo is to sgort, isnt it?

[pushead94]

@MrWankata Hell no :D

[MultiSillyputty]

whos the bass player????........cliff burton?

[RikkudoSennin]

@MultiSillyputty ...I REALLY hope that's sarcasm. >_<

[Symow]

21 Fuckin' Morons !

[HelderRocker]

ke lastima quye no this completo El inicio . Muy buena Pero rolona!!!

[Big88Rocker]

Everytime I see this video I get an orgasm!! xD

[MaxtallicA1]

look at all those mesa triple rectos....damn

[TransAmPhantom]

This and ride the lightning are the best songs evah!..and lolz @ How everyone else is dressed warm but robert xD

[Predator1234Olo]

Chuj ! : D

[Blackened44]

These guys will jam till the day they die

[moscraciunita]

@Blackened44 i hope

[405mikey91]

cymbals are too loud, you can't even hear the drums

[motorstorm78]

It seems like everytime someone in the band gets hyper somehow that person manages to make everyone ge hyper

[JLLproductions]

metallica are awesome, but they aint what the used to be, listen to the solo, firstly its changed so much its nothing like the original and secondly it is only half of the solo maybe its because kirk isn't capable of playing it any more I don't know.

[Studas2006]

uh, what happened to the rest of the solo??

[TheSpuditron]

@Studas2006 It's the best part they left out and everything!

[Studas2006]

@TheSpuditron lil bit of magic

[FiFajFum]

This 2003 Blackened is so dirty and fucking powerful

[wiggs333]

im sorry, but james looks like someone who would mug you on the street on this vid

[oldmaybe]

バケツリレー！ 水よこせ～！

[zupermann123]

This really remind me some of the old days, the attidude is what making this one awesome. Its like "who gives a fuck" atitude. Now its "youre a member of the metallica, and we are here to make you feel good" atitude, no good man.

[IamTheTrueKing]

@zupermann123

cannot agree more

[Astuddedbelt]

love james' moustache :P

[Sarentor]

Metallica had a bad time from 2003-2007. But since then they are back. Now they fucking kick ass.

[OcelotDAD]

Yeah, I wouldn't say this is Metallica's finest hour...

[FrancescoMaisano]

haha, fucked the lyrics up at 2:55 or so. Amazing song though

[hbmbc]

FUCK YOU

[AndyHighton]

Metallica are awesome whether it be 1986 metallica or 2003 metallica, blackened or st.anger it's all awesome, different an genius with all areas exploring metallicas emotions so if your a true metallica fan then enjoy it all.

[75metallicafan]

@AndyHighton i agree

[FuckinMetal3694]

@AndyHighton FUCK YEAH METALLICA FOR LIFE

[rockstarjustin3000]

This is my favorite Metallica song, off of my favorite album of all time, but this is absolutely one of the worst performances I've ever heard! Why is it all of the Rock AM Ring videos I've seen, the bands sound like absolute shit?

[jimbobbidy]

@rockstarjustin3000 your right, all Rock Am Ring 03 vids are absolutely awful, they played St Anger aswell at this gig too, and its undoubtedly the worst Metallica performance ive ever seen, but look up Rock Am Ring 2006 or 2008, they more than made up for it !

[NASCAR90]

St. Anger sucked

[azrock666]

I think his performance is good man.

[quackbeef]

james looks very "st. anger" with the beanie hat...

[dusted04]

@quackbeef probably because it is st anger era

[beneatworld]

metallica will always be my favorite band,, but i gotta say.. this performance sucks,, but they improved since then so thats good

[jessiegarcia9]

what happened 2 the fucking solo it sounds like shit

[Aremine]

i also thought that the entire ajfa album sucked but if you pump up the volume even eye of the beholder owns :D

[moneybagz9111]

holy shit live speed is fucking rediculous

[Randyrhoads4lyfe]

Ummmmm.... I think the true meaning behind this song is... MOSH PIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Headbanging til ur neck break!!!!!!!!!!!

[no0neX]

Oh man... Lars again ruined probably the best part of the song.. I'm talking about 1:13 - 1:18. Where's bass, Lars ?

[metllica333]

the sound quality probably drowned it out causing the bass not to be heard

[tgslug567]

james look like the edge

[IvanBeSerious]

dude the Original album version sucked, when Blackened is played live or with a bass that can actually be heard in the background, this song kicks ass

[gugulon]

@IvanBeSerious yeh nice one dude :D

you made the 666th comment on this vid :D.

and yeh , its much better live, sounds better with more bass.

[slashBR1751]

why they don't play the entire solo???

plz tell me

[eetfvk]

lol...

[SEVENTYNINEKJ]

at 3:32, this dude looks like the 2nd coming of CLIFF. no disrespect MR. Burton, you will always be the greatest. RIP

[bufton75]

hand over a couple of those mesa boogies

[boemsie0906]

i love it when you get money for being cool

(making the music is hard but this is in case some nitwit starts bullying)

[Assonfireonastick]

wassup wth Lars' hihat, sounds all "Frantic-y"

[Ismann400]

i actually liked the solo. kirk improvised a great solo. a shame they cut it down:(

[zupermann123]

what makes this show good is the guitar tone, it's awesome. their live guitar tone these days isn't this good, but james voice is alot better though :D

[WizzardOfGlue]

ST ANGER TONE!

[Akpk3r]

Man I wish they still played hardcore like this :>

[hellsboi666]

metallica old is the best

[6Strings7Sins]

the last metallica live show with badass/superaggresive sound.nowadays their sound is odd

[FR33STYL3DUNK3R]

have u heard them in Nimes?

[cashandguns]

he did mess up but think of all the songs he has stored up there it really doesnt matter

[GHeroandRScape]

<3 james guitar :D

[number3answer]

@GHeroandRScape yh his guitar sounds amazing at this sh0w

[michaelfeldman91]

fuck yea thats the james i no with the handle bar mustache. looks like 89.

[FR33STYL3DUNK3R]

yea he should go back to this look

[stinkfist87]

So?? Is his song, he can change the lyrics if he wants to

[korylaven69]

James messed up with the lyrics at min 2:50

cause he said "see our mother put to death ..see our mother diee.." and it is "darkest color blistered earth true death of life"

[jaiwook63]

kinda cut down the solo there ay Kirk

[WhoDatBitches]

man i miss the ride the lightening, master of puppets days this song sounded much better a long time ago on and justice for all better watch out lars might crack a hip trying to play this now lol man i miss old metallica they just got to old and to deaf they were awesome when they were pissed off at everybody they died when cliff died but i still love them cant help it!!

[korylaven69]

I think man the main problem is jame's voice... but the other stuff are ok :D

[hammbch]

man lars' drumset used to be huge, not anymore

[vio2112]

It's been pretty small since the Load era. Not sure why he shrunk it down so much. There almost seems to be a correlation between his declining skills and the size of his kit. Heh.

[longded]

lol yer see them at wembly in 90 and thinnk his legs were gone cos jason carried him on to the steps of the stage, clearly hard work bigger kits!

so I didnt know that he had left ? is that him in that band with the chick singing?

Peace!#

;]

[RuKuLuke]

It's just the fact that 6 toms weren't needed anymore. :P

+ They were getting old and didn't want to haul around as much equipment: mics, stands, etc.

[MrAttila1987]

@hammbch Yeah, I'd love to see a giant drum kit too on stage:D

[Sarentor]

@hammbch

yeah, blame him, he removed 2 toms.

[machielste1]

@hammbch He picked his size XD, love him though, the drums sounded odd here

[mattbarnes10]

@hammbch because most of the crazy drumming is on and justice for all, and they rarely play it live now

[haoliver1]

@mattbarnes10 no also becouse lars has losen his rythm. according to me

[MeTaLiXe]

man why didn't kirk play the full solo. i love the blackened solo. when he plays it full. its one of my favorite solo's

[riseoftheblackout]

ron left becuz he was filling in the bass line til they found somebody! . and they found cliff so they kicked out ron for cliff.

[dragonmasterlance123]

wrong!!

ron left the band in late 1982

cliff REPLACED him

[riseoftheblackout]

they kicked him out cuz he sucked

[super7o]

@riseoftheblackout yea he did suck but also he quit because he was a pussy

[1stFightFireWithFire]

lol Ron McGoveny left Metallica cause he didnt fit into their look of Rebels, he was a pussy and sucked, plus Dave picked on him always

[Kororock]

Are you kidding me??? Rob Mc Govney???

He didn't done absolutely NOTHING serious for MetallicA you idiot! He left the band cause he wasn't enough good... Hetfield said it!

[MhzLOK]

Wrong. Ron Mc Govney left the band 'cause of daves behaviour when he was drunk.

[poobearpanda345]

no one ever talks about robin....

[feliperamir]

Cliff, Kirk Hammet, James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich are the gods of the metal!!

[reckso84]

Best comment ever!!! metallica for life!!!! i mean people say dave mustaine, and i say he is great but metallica IS FRIKENN 109302349830483209483029 TIMES BETTER

[D2DRUMM]

@feliperamir Roberto is part of the gods now, he's [playing] AWESOME!

[TheFacilidade]

@feliperamir R u fucking serious? uahauahuahau u should B Kidding me! TRY MR.James Labrie,Mr.Mike Portnoy,Mr.John Myung,Mr.John Petrucci n Mr.Jordan Rudess, these guys are GODS(DREAM THEATER) or DREAM TEAM if u want! Please stop to DREAM and open your ears,Shitallica is a joke like the last DVD of them! U can search RUSH too!

[camilin116]

@feliperamir claro son los dioses del metal lejos,of course metallica god of metal !!!

[AuDIoSenCraTIc]

james looks like the guy that stole my bike! xD

[figaro001]

The guy that stole your bike looked like James actually. :D:D

[Krazyps3]

wow that was not the blackened solo WTF

[jeeperjus]

if you listen closely "young one" you will notice that it IS the solo, just in a different sense. their METALLICA, they do whatever the fuck they want.

[Krazyps3]

hmm no its not..... I know Matallica... Kirk has carpultunnel....

[psychotrn]

The ending of the solo has some weird changes in time signature, which might be why they decided to leave it out. In '89, however, they played it in full: /watch?v=B9d5fgDHEQA

[KonkreteXXX]

that was a fuckin LOUSY, different interpretation of the solo...!

[Aseapia]

I love this video, but Kirk ate shit on that solo.

[zupermann123]

this have to be the best show since 1995 or something!! the guitar tone is just awesome!! now it just suck :(

[FilFintas]

james's face at the beginning is fuckinng awsome \m/

[sonofsecrets]

was there something wrong with the microphones? cuz it was so quiet

[01dereck66]

rob doesn´t belong to metallica ,,, just look at his clothes. damn...

[beneatworld]

i know wut u mean, he does dress pretty weird

[wgpautoplay]

ikr

[dean42bean]

wat metallica have been trying to get across is its not the fashion its the music.

[hanzaninja3]

Cliff Burton didn't belong in Metallica either....God wanted him to play bass in heaven... so they settled with Jason......

[BillyxRattlehead]

His clothes arnt playing the music dumbass

[alcohollica261290]

has anybody noticed that on each album, lars gets slightly better at drums?

[motherrussia13]

Rob and Cliff, greatest bassists of life \m/

R.I.P Cliff

[TWINK1991]

:( where's epic "fire" chant :(

miss you jason....

[southparkfan1999]

james made a mistake with the vocals at

2:51 and without jason this song is missing something

[praisekallio]

not really, robert is doing it great

[comptonbrotha]

Wtf where's the fucking sex lick of the solo?

[Pyroshred]

I miss jasons backing vocals. Rob just doesnt seem to have that evil sound jason did.

[kmisi1]

jason didn't do the backing vocals in blackened, they put some kind of delay effect on james' voice

i like rob's vocals in blackened. he's not evil but he sounds "sick" and it's cool for this song

[hahajakejake]

wtf are you saying? rob doesnt sing...

[x7SynysterShadows7x]

every solo is a fucking wah pedal

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

Every M.Shadows song sux ass. You got flamed good.

[x7SynysterShadows7x]

not really...

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

*cough* Yes

[x7SynysterShadows7x]

you're a nerd

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

You've a bad taste in music. Plus that was 'fail'.

[x7SynysterShadows7x]

you couldnt be more arrogant could you

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

Arent we all? ;D

[admrlcheese]

solo sucked ass compared to to their live show in 89'. Kirk was 20 years younger then though.

[Chavez3d]

Kirk used to be really good but now its like he don't care... but for the love of god throw that awful wah pedal off a fuckin cliff already

[FordmanFender]

Totally agree with how impressive they are for old fellas,half of young guitarists couldnt play half as good as kirt,the amount of drugs and alcohol they have taken in the past im surprised there still alive,dave mustaine still kicks hammets arse in speed and skill department

[TSlMFAUKIS]

-.- Have you seen the video where he showed off some of his skills? I guess it was for guitar world or something. He totally sucks as a lead guitarist.

[marcomijares]

worst blackened solo i ever hear

[AirgunAddict256]

it really wasn't as good as the studio version... it was tuned a step down, James just doesn't have the old voice, and Kirk cut out a third of the solo. but it's pretty much all that i expected. they're crusty old men now, sad to say, but the fact that they can still rock out like they do is very impressive.

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

To be honest, Brian Johnson is a crusty old man, Metallica are like, bordering :P

[ricardobarcos20]

Metallica still rocking as always

[hugozapata57]

he does like yodels or something like that

[horandago]

SOLO, RUINED HERE D:

this is may fav solo, but i did not like it in this, considering they cut half of it out

[thenexthalen]

Good performance

But Kirk fucked up the solo

[MrBaker0927]

What is it with Kirk why doesn't he do the full solo anymore?

[vegeta1992]

ya i noticed that too, man, the concert from '89 in Seattle, his fingers were moving so fast in that solo, ya couldnt see them.

[joemfo]

line six i think, not sure
