Metallica - Broken, Beat And Scarred (Demo)

[Scoffman5150]

This is from the demo cd that came in the coffin box set right?

[theelektron97]

@metal97100 you are shit too and your parents keep u.

[ignacioffm]

GREAT CHORUS

[romanzabashta]

I think that is worse version than the original, but the sound is better without mastered endless "sheesheesheesheeshee..."

[CycleSeth]

The lyrics have more meaning it seems in this song than the album version, and his voice sounds better in this version. I just DO NOT like all the YEAAA YOOO YEAAA YEA YEA Yeaaaa crap. i think it sounds fake and stupid. Other than that i like it better. DM was okay in my opinion. The next album will be a big test for me to see if they are coming around again or not. Just my opinion on it.

[firekid0669]

@CycleSeth I'm pretty sure the "YEAAA YOOO YEAAA YEA YEA Yeaaaa " stuff was filler until he came up with the lyrics. James does that on a lot of demos. Mostly it just makes me laugh!

[CycleSeth]

@firekid0669 I hope so, but he does that stuff in alot of songs too. YEAAAAA OOOHHH yea yea yeaaaa.. hahaha

[plokis246]

@metal97100 it's not even shit

[mvn1981]

Why the hell did'nt they keep "let the scar tell the story" part!!!

[XxJoeordazxX]

i preffer the intro of the album version but its WAY better album witout the loudness war...

[riverrunnerzj]

That's what I'm talking about! How can I get this??

[blackmarvel94941]

way better than the orginal

[Thekmaggot]

Damn, no offense but I'm tired of the "Better than the original" comments, BOTH SONGS/ALBUMS ARE GREAT!!

[guitarshreder91]

@Thekmaggot these lyrics are differen't i like these better

[Thekmaggot]

@guitarshreder91 Im glad..

[SilentBob1089]

musically this is pretty cool but lyrically i like the final version

[wegonnaownyanoob]

i like it that, i think rob, also sings "what don't kill ya make ya more strong"

[jessebannon123]

WAY better than the original.

"Dyin's easy, it's livin that's hard"...brilliant.

[Musipan94]

SOme demos are better than the album version...

Crap!

[iCruziii]

Definitely like this version better!

[jayray777]

James is the fuking King Baby!

[Tybob47]

"Let the scars tell the story"

That whole part is epic

[Chaney1027]

i personally like the solo in this better than what they went with on the album

[BittenbyFrost]

The part at 1:00 is friggin AWESOME

[chickenuncle]

2:00 nice shit.....

[miguel17alves]

There thinghs in this demo better than the original. But Is AWESOME This Chorus

[TheRealMercyNoMore]

I like the chorus better in this one.

[crashunderride]

Love the back up vocals in this version.

[capnkdawg]

I like this version a lot, but the final product ended up better

[timelordhuman2]

This is better than the original

[sobektus]

something wrong with the sound, i can only hear the solo guitar waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay on the background

[twistedmind101ify]

i liked the final version before i heard this version its way better!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! fuck the final product!!!!!!

[lordasd1]

dude O.o fuck you?

[capnkdawg]

I like this version, but I think the final product is better

[chammeroo]

Sounds a lot more Load/Reloadish than the final product. Very interesting though.

[razorslice17]

This is so much better than the original. Chorus is better, no shitty mastering. James should start producing his own albums. It would have a much more raw sound.

[dumapies]

@razorslice17

because of Rick Rubin...he produced for Slayer and Slipknot (and Jay-Z -__-), and those bands sound like GHRHGHRHGHARHHAGHRHAHGHRHAGHH and so he made metallica sound like GHRAHGHRHAGHRHAHGGHRHAHGHRAHGH

[MrMetallica124]

@razorslice17 hell yeah

[FrydPraduct]

@razorslice17 They only spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to make it NOT sound like it was recorded in someones basement like this. If you were at their status and said that then you would look like a complete jackass. Producers run the studio and hence "produce" the amazing sound, hetfield is right where he needs to be, let Rick Rubin do what he's been doing perfectly for 30 years.

[bigtbake61]

I like this version a lot but when it came down to it the masses wouldn't enjoy it as much. However the course is amazing and should have been kept.

[youfoundtruth]

ha ha ha ha ha i like this makes me feel god megadeth mustein probably feeling like haveng rolled cigarette a beer rigt now.

[jcmmnx]

This chorus is win

[Aeachosphere]

catchy

[Aeachosphere]

1:58

[WizzardOfGlue]

Metallica production here. then they give to the "pros" to fuck it up, metallica is better of producing it on thee own

[FrydPraduct]

Idk that chorus might have sounded better than the one they're using

[afdonier]

crash... hahaha sounds stupid

[thefrater]

gracias escucharon nuestras suplicas al fin despues de 10 años estaran otra vez en VENEZUELA y me los tripiare dandome duro contra la pared jjejjejjejje

[martinrobertjohn]

watch the metallica doc monster when I was off the boy's and very sad in my life what to do ? WITH MY LIFE ? It sorted my life out f@@@ing ace doc this song is so good

[bigtbake61]

I really like that chorus but it makes it sound very loadish it you really listen to it. Which isn't bad.

[Charization]

I hope they use the chorus on the next album in a new song.

[Grimaldus1989]

i keep coming back to this video just for that chorus, its so fucking awesome

[darasvaladarasmovies]

special

[JAYMZACHILLES]

omg this is ace :) i love metallica JAYMZ IS GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

[patrickbonin22]

yah GRIMALUDS1989, i think you`re right, SCARS, thanx

[patrickbonin22]

let the sky tell a story, love it

[Grimaldus1989]

i think its ' let the scars tell the story'

[thebirdman0]

your right...sky doesnt sense for shit lol

[mayormcdiamond]

@thebirdman0 That's because he's singing scars, not sky.

[thebirdman0]

i clearly stated that in my comment...

[Skullfirekills7]

cool

[subway107]

Better than the final product. Same with all the demos. Probably because they didn't MAX THE FUCKING VOLUME ON THEM!

[Halodudezor]

Woah, totally different from the final product lol

Love this song though

[00GeForce]

Metallica is better

Thrash jeah!!!!!!!

[wannabecris]

whos better metallica or slipknot??

[3bayftw]

metallica absolutly.... slipknot truly sucks... live and on albums..... (used to be a slipknot fan) slipknot is in my eyes meaningless crap.... i'm probably wrong.. so i accept every other comment

[MetalGearRider]

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

[Hookman94]

totally agree

[3bayftw]

wooo:D:D:D:D^^

[zach8793]

Metallica

[hiyabuddy69]

slayer

[RESURSMAN]

bass s wonderful

[lilbadboosie1]

i will say

[0MasterOfAllThings0]

Listen to the pitch and tone of his voice weaves with the melody and the song, for the fast parts and more harsh and etc

[MatCumb]

liked this... lol... although theyve done a good job to turn it into the final masterpiece

[iamthreenil]

should of kept this chorus, could do without the YEAH YEAH YEAH YEAH. Reminds me of Bono too much..

[zupperm]

It could be a placeholder for the final lyrics.

[Wh1teL1ghtinn]

and they say james cant sing.

he sounds amazing in this album

[AlwaysSomething]

@Wh1teL1ghtinn Dude, have you ever heard of Auto-tune, vocal correction? It's all over DM, listen to the Unforgiven 3, so many of those vocal runs are corrected. You can easily hear it if you've used it before. He jumps from notes so flawlessly in his vocal runs, it's very obvious. I can't criticize him for using it, because I have too. Not saying he can't hit the notes, not saying he can't sing, he clearly can, Auto-tune used right is a great tool.

[elementskater3783]

the lyrics arent as good but the tone is alot more raw

[Razorback613]

I actually like the chorus melody better in the demo. Otherwise, the album version is better.

[metallica0fan]

lol @ the YEH YEEAAHH YEH YEH YEAHHHH lol

[Mumublues]

LMFAO

[RulesRedefined]

i don't think that the song some kind of a monster was bad...it was pretty good

[mrhoffame]

I know..Some kind of moster caught so much flack..i thought it was good record!!

[marcusamarrious]

personally i like most of all the demos except for cyonide that song sound too much like the saint anger album.

[tennischamp190]

1:48-1:55

lmao

[supermovies342]

3:30

[supermovies342]

3:25

[Xpl0ReRChR]

The final version is 100% better.

[raverolero]

agreed

[o0metalrecords0o]

i love the part when he sings it with the stars and so on at 2:00 !!! ... thats pretty awesome !!! that should have been the final cut !!! and the lyrics in that song here is fucking epic ! better than the original in my opinion ...

[pickedoff]

I like the "dying is easy, it's living that's hard.' I wish that line would have somehow made it in the final cut.

[marcusamarrious]

i could good for some right about now

[punk4life1029]

pussy

[cadet58085]

yes you are

[thikKl0udz]

omfg that verse riff is my life support for the week

so good

[BrownHawknick096]

OMG.

[guitarkid13579]

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

[simpaa9]

Yeah there's something Load/Reload-ish in the vocals

[joekoenig]

ehh idk i dont like all the yeah yeah yeahs in the beginning

[BonoSlayer1]

they are just there because lyrics hadnt been written or decided on at the time of recording

[MaisonDuRock]

He Says That because There is suposed To be lyrics At this place...But it was not decided at this time of the recording

[marcusamarrious]

great version why did they through it out.

[marcusamarrious]

they should have kept it.

[sacred04]

Kinda makes me think of ReLoad mixed with Justice era

[robertg5a]

i lyk let the scars tell the story part alot

[maxiol77]

''let the scars tell tell the story!!"

[zackgb]

It's cool to hear this. I think the album solo with all the dive bombs sounds awesome though. It really has that sound like someone getting massacred and having the shit beat out of them haha. Really awesome and chaotic.

Almost along the same lines of "Damage Inc"

[Metallifuckinca]

thanks for this demo, cool to hear!

[scm11904]

im sooo happy they fixed the rise fall crash part and the yeah yeah part. Other wise this is great!

[Illumirage]

Anyone ever notice that the guitar riff at 4:44 is a complete rip off of Static-X's 'start a war'?

[pmanderson]

Just because it sounds similar doesn't mean it was on purpose.

[Illumirage]

Wow, surprised to see how many down-votes I got. Metallica is my favorite band. But search the song I mentioned, it's exactly the same and Static-X came up with it first. I'm not knockin' Metallica, I fuckin' love them and have seen them live and it was the best concert ever. So all you down-voters can go fuck yourselves.

Sure it maiy not have been intentional, but seriously, go check it, it's exactly the same. And again...I'm not complaining, Metallica are fuckin' rock GODS.

[pmanderson]

Well, I think you typing "rip-off" got ya that.

[Illumirage]

Yeah, bad choice of words, you're right.

[StinkBaitTheBand]

they sound very little the same, plus who cares about static x?

[metfan197]

love this album i haven't stopped listening to it since i went to see them in newcastle lol

[metalmario298]

This shit is badass!

[ZoNeSiNisTeR]

Before I DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIE

[clanstead]

Sounds likejustice..

[luannathylho77]

que bossssssta é essa mermaoo, escuta fresno que vira mais.=\

[leemcqueen500]

The album version is miles better imo.

[ispy1975]

Both versions are good, I really like the melody at 1.31 (pre - chorus?)

[MasterQuest1984]

Did you just call Metallica faggots?

They pratically invented thrash metal. And this album is a hell of a lot better than that shit St. Anger and Garage Inc.

[Ishouldnotbe]

that's a joke, right?

[Splangy1]

st. anger was the best they could do and have ever done

[jr240891]

st anger might been alrite but it was clearly not the best album, master of puppets now thats a classic album

[Splangy1]

I'm just telling you the one that I liked most

[spoqo]

i just fakin love those DEMO version..they use to be actually better then on the album...etg. low man´s lyrics...

[0205743251]

James is a bad motherfucker!!!!! :-)Better vocals here than the album.

[jr240891]

James never sucks in metallica

but you suck been a metallica fan

[Illumirage]

Wrongo.

[metalmonkey88]

dammit. why didn't release a sound like this instead... dammit. this sounds badass.

[ccsrock]

Does anyone know what the second chorus says ? the one that sounds with the rythm of " what dont kill ya make ya more strong" .. I CANT get it lol ..

[alfredface]

dyings easy its living thats hard

[kubachub]

i think those lyrics should of made it on the album version

[tnarg4991]

Just amazing. I prefer parts of this version to the album version

[Shrap666]

i kind of like the chorus of this version better than the album one. everything else sounds better on the album version (i think).

[jimmee671]

just like your mom

[chelsbug10]

the lyrics are awesomeee x)

[6999999METAL6666669]

this demo is beautiful

[WWFATTITUDEERAFAN]

The lyrics kick ass in this version!

[Kruegernator123]

reminds me of St. Anger, which is a good thing

[gecior]

i think that intro is better than original on cd ;)

[petejt]

the intro sucks in this one, thank goodness they fixed it up on the main version

[ccsrock]

love the lyrics ! you crash ! sounds alot better than you rise .. and the chorus with hammett and trujillos singing are amazing !

[razorslice17]

I think the vocals are actually a lot better here along with the lyrics

Guitars are a lot better on the album though.

[lucasriggi]

the drums are better here

[Nevin1343]

thats just because they didn't max the volume on the demos and maake the drums sound distorted

[Excowrath]

He's vocal is awesome here!

[Brackhmmarr]

i prefer the guitar sound on this demo more than the album...

This album was too dry in my opinion despite the awesome tracks.

[apd65]

AGREED 100%

[6999999METAL6666669]

let your scars tell the story! born to lose!

[6999999METAL6666669]

the lyrics are so good on this version i love hetfields original stuff

[pulpnonfiction13]

wow i love his vocals on this demo

[paralonlom]

All these demos are from "Demo Magnetic" CD which is inside the Coffin Box.

[VOSTFR]

Low tuning doesn't fit IMO. Low tuning is good for Black Sabbath's Master Of Reality, it's good for Slayer's Reign In Blood, it doesn't work at all for any Metallica record.

I still prefer the CD version.

[fnixws]

Holly shit, this version rocks!!

Really shows how much they fucked up the albums sound quality!

Anyone know where i can get the MP3s of these versions?

[braddudeguy]

Get 'em your self with vidtomp3(dot)com

[Metalwarlock78]

i like the "let the skys tell the story" chorus...sounds different but fuck man either way its good, this is a godo song period, on their myspace they ahve actual pro souding live sound audio and sounds kick ass.

[webb88]

I could be wrong, but I think he is saying "let the scars tell the story". It sounds like skies too, though.

[Metalwarlock78]

would make more sense if it was scars...hmmm never realised that.

[1toni3]

drums are better in the demo but the riff but the guitars are better in the final version!

[egnin1]

this sounds so much like master and justice not cleand up like on the cd gritty is what made them heavy god they should have kept the sound and the vocals gritty

[FlyingVshredz]

anyone else like this chorus better then the real one?

[patrick1428]

I prefer the original coz "SHOW.. YOUR.. SCARS!!" is something that the crowd can sing along to when Metallica play it live

[12pimpinez]

i think they should have mixed the lyris

[akko17]

i love this song....love the riff...

[Metalwarlock78]

it sounded good and i def dig the back vocals for the chorus but i can see why they cut it out.

[Jhnsch]

thank God they change the tuning to E
