Cthulhu is a monster from an old story by H.P. Lovecraft. He's basically an alien deity of madness and destruction, and an all around terrifying monstrosity. Metallica made a song based off of the dude, and the misspelled it on purpose as a way to piss people off, but Ktulu is the supposed correct way to pronounce it. Cool stuff, look it up on Google if you wish to know more.
I don't care how it's spelled (but I love Metallica enough to spell it Ktulu), All I know is that it's an AWESOME SONG! So shut the fuck up and enjoy it!
@wwejheaton cthulu is a character made up by a writer named H.P. Lovecraft in the '20s for a magazine or something called "weird tales". On this song it's misspelled as "Kthulu" when it's actually spelled "Cthulu".

The video goes to 720p HD. Why would anyone want to watch a song in HD? There's no real video, it's just about the music.

@Derrricification well if its just about the music, theres no point complaining about the videos quality

@Derrricification The audio quality goes up as well with the 720p videos. Switch back and forth and it is an obvious improvement.

@Derrricification The audio quality is actually better in HD for some weird ass reason.

@infamousdnt The sound doesn't need to be made clearer. We are talking 80's here, It's supposed to be listened in 240p.

@Unit403 Yeah, everyone knows they recorded music with basalt slabs in the 80's. Live concerts? Supposed to sound shitty.

Or it could be because of copyright reasons. I'm sure Metallica doesn't want to get sued just for a silly name.
