  • Ride the lightning oh yeah!

  • volbeat fucking owns, i have recently started listening to them! awesome song :D very metallica inspired tune indeed and badass lyrics. i like all their tunes though. the rockabilly sound mixed with heavy metal and much more is just genious.

  • Oh,god. I like how he's singing "Metallica tunes" with James Hetfield's voice :D

    Both great bands,peace people :)

  • Volbeat are SO!!! inspired by Metallica it's kind of scary. Although, they did delevop their own sound which is good, but listen to the first records, so Metallica-ish, the guitars f.x.

  • And anyone who calls Metallica posers isn't a metal head.People bitched and bitched ever since Black Album came out "Oh when are Metallica gonna do a thrash album again!?"They finally do it,and people are still bitching.

  • Everybody just LOVES to rip on Metallica.They evolved,they're not gonna re-do 'Puppets,so get the fuck over it.

  • Love it, The singer sings a little like Hettfield but that's what I like about it Metallica rocks<33 And this is awesome!! Keep metal alive forever!

  • This song is Hammerhead by Overkill with different wolrd and singer.

  • @EfillanRete Hardly. Lay off the mushrooms ;-)

  • *sigh* I Love you denmark for spawning these bunch o guys

  • I love this song! Been to the dark side of town theyre bringing me in!

  • The story of my life for to long now. Changing it.

  • LOL One of my Favorite band is singing about my favorite band xd

  • the lyrics are an epic WIN!!!! XD

  • Haha! Metallica fans! These guys are ok by me. Their music is great.

    Does anyone else hear Misfits-like stuff in some of their other songs... or is it just me?

  • @timongarretson your right, listen to Volbeat Soulweeper 1 and Misfits - saterday night. But both are great songs. Great voice to!!

  • Saw these guys Open for Lamb of God and Metallica in November 2009 in Ottawa. They were Loud and they Rocked, Thanks for a great first impression.

  • @Chickenboobful i saw them as well in october i loved them high engery great music and pree deecent show

  • Who was the fuckin retard saying, Volbeat sounds nothing like Metallica? Volbeat are highly influenced by Metallica, you can hear it in there riffs and in the chorus, but Volbeat has evolved "metallica-metal" to a whole new metal-sound. That´s why they are so fucking good, they sound a lot like metallica, but still they got their own sound, and there´s no other band soundin like them. They are the only Metal band who has created a new sound in almost 20years with quality.

  • Yeah, the singer has a very unique voice.

    I jokingly say that Volbeat is what you'd get if Elvis ever went metal.

  • yet its not so wrong if you think about it

  • Yeah, I know. The first time I heard Volbeat, I remember thinking "Elvis?! HE DIDN'T DIE! HE WENT METAL!"

  • hahahahaa. That would be way too cool dude.

  • Metallica has vocal melodies can't touch volbeat's.

    Anyone can put power chords & double bass together.That's why Volbeat is better.

  • @Playingpants This guy has a much better voice than James Hetfield but Metallica is MUCH more than powerchords and double bass. Go listen to And Justice for All in its entirety and get back to me. Nothing Volbeat has done can touch Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, or And Justice for All. Sorry...Also, Jame's voice was PERFECT for Metallica.

  • @samobetty Oh please, I can recite the lyrics to those albums straight from my head. Don't try and give me a metal lesson. But metallica is just boring to me now. Yeah they're way more than powerchords and double bass but if you really study the structure you'll that it's all the same..

  • As much as i agree with you I also have to say. Although their riffs and double bass is very metal, they crossed a musical barrier (Elvis/Cash Metal) to a whole new caliber that Metallica only ever reached with their acoustic radio performances. Like Four Horseman, Low mans lyric, creeping death etc etc.

  • u guys cant hate on Metallica they are legendary and they probably influenced Volbeat to come into existence, Metallica has lead metal to what it is today by influencing sooo many bands

  • Comment removed

  • @gooby21

    You can't say better than that! Finally somone who understand the metal. Anyway, the ppls who say they hate MetallicA they are just ignorant. And why when MetallicA announce a show somewhere and the ticket are out for sale, they are able to sale everything in about 5 min? strange when you think 'bout every hater they have on the internet! Volbeat is great, MetallicA was, is and will always be great!

  • @gooby21 and they did so by stealing pretty much anything from anyone... so yea who cares about that poser metal.

  • @Enysvar WTF are u talking about!? metallica didnt steal anything! and how can u call them posers when they helped changed metal to a new form to what it is today! so shut the fuck up about shit u dont even kno

  • @gooby21  volbeat toured with metallica

  • I think why they are so good is because they're different. They sound nothing like metallica. Their vocal melodies are incredible and catchy!

  • Volbeat rox.... metallica?..... well think of it.

  • Volbeat is sooo much better than Metallica^^

  • Dont get me wrong I really like Volbeat, but MetallicA is better in everyway way, shape and form. Sorry

  • @shieldsm Metallica is my fav band and has always been but volbeat kicks ass as well.

  • we say these guys last weekend at the garden and they kicked serious ass....hung with the singer for a while great guys!!!

  • What a good tribute song!

  • All of their other songs are not as good as this one. This is #11 on best Metal Songs right now on XM 42

  • This is their best song by far. It took me 15 minutes to find this song though. I am amazed this song only has 18k hits on youtube. They are not bad, I seen them live at Metallica.

  • volbeat owns...wish i could have seen them last nite with metallica..oh well.
