Ever since Black album (and when his vocal chords blew out) Jame's voice lacks the power it once had. I still like Metallica but the oomph his voice had is just gone... When I first was getting into Metal, I only liked Metallica because I hated Death Metal growls (not anymore) and vocal stylings, Hetfields voice was the only one that had that same intensity as death metal but you could understand what he was saying. Go listen to Leper Messiah and tell me if he still has that power, aged or not.
@koolmaaan I can't stress enough how your opinion is shared with so many people. It sounds like I wrote that comment. The whole Death Metal growl and not liking it then and liking it now. Epitome of a perfect comment.
If I had to choose between having Morgan Freeman's voice or James' Hetfield's voice, I would choose James. Because then I could sing to Sad but True. The only song's I can sing where I sound like James are Orion, Call of Ktulu, and to live is to die. I guess that's good though because to live is to die is my favorite song.
it isnt the "maturing" of his voice that bothers me it's the change in singing style, he went from being a "thrash" vocalist to a "rock" vocalist (he didnt have to change his style as his voice "matured")
@borumir he had to change his singing style since his voice blew out, he ahad to protect it more, but i agree with you, his voice during the justice tour was by far one of my favorite singing voices ever
@borumir he had to change his singing style since his voice blew out, he ahad to protect it more, but i agree with you, his voice during the justice tour was by far one of my favorite singing voices ever
Didn't he blow his voice around 1993-1994? After years of heavy touring for Justice and Black (Binge & Burge tours)? That'd ruin anyones voice, at least temporarily.
A lot of his vocal change has come from actual singing lessons he took in the mid nighties. He sings more from his diaphragm and not his throat now. It may now sound as good, but he may not be able to do it at all without it.
"oh, it´s the age, that´s why" stop making excuses! Dickinson had a WONDERFULL voice till passed 40 (and he´s still has a extremely good one, despite he´s losing it a bit nowadays) listen to Dio! he had quite a good voice when he was 65 (sixty five!) and he was AWESOME till the age of 56, let´s say. Let´s also remember that these two examples had/have a greater challenge when it comes to live shows, which consumes more their voices.
@holymariner1 OMG hahaha I wanted to write down the exact same thing. But there are other factors like alcohol and drug abuse that can destroy a voice. Ronnie is amazing, still had the same strength in his 60's as he did in his 30's! That is a professional singer who knows how to use his voice. I don't think James ever thought of himself as an amazing professional singer and I don't think anybody thinks of him that way.
Metallica still RULES!!! I could act like a man and SHUT UP! I STILL love my METALLICA, I covered my notebooks as such, Pantera, Slayer, lil DimeBagD, awesome bassist. RIP!!
89-91 were the best years of vocal for there style ( in my opinion) but james started to take care of his singing technique during the making of black album.. this is pretty much why his voice went soft and smoother... less throaty in my opinion :/ it sounds alright now but i dont think it will ever suit the old classics like it use to :( \m/ but METALLICAS still awesome live !!!! KILL EM ALL BITCHES R.I.P CLIFF!!!! (sound of pulling teeth)
all of you guys talk crap about James and his voice changes but look where he is and look where you are? on youtube because your not as talented so shut up
you dumbasses, its called better production which comes with more money, jame s voice for the most part has never changed. but the ability to record better has changed...
That is bullshit. His voice has changed a lot. Just listen to all the concerts and live bootlegs from the 80's. It has very little to do with production.
wn cualquera que cante por 30 años y casi 3000 conciertos en 1 año tiene la voz pal pico wn ya te quiero ver tu cantando 24 horas seguidas haber como te queda la voz
His voice on Kill Em All is the best. A lot may not agree, but that screech that he used to do was ace listen to No Remorse. I think we can all agree that his voice now has gone to the dogs.
1989 the best obviously! Years pass for everyone. Listen to Bruce Dickinson from his early days, his voice is very different, although he is still an amazing singer!
It's called vocal maturity. I don't know how old the person who posted this video is, but if you're under...say, 25 years old I'd like you to make a recording of your voice and put the recording somewhere you can find it in 10 years. Listen to it then and see if you don't notice that your own voice has changed since you recorded it.
@d3mon64157 I guess you kind of miss the point. Of course my voice would change, I'm not saying it wouldn't nor am I saying the change in Hetfield's voice is good, or bad. This video is just showing the change in his voice, not asking which year is the best, or anything like that.
@dOnTtReAdOnMETAL I thought he explained though that the reason his voice changed drastically was because he blew it out while singing in japan i think.
@d3mon64157 my voice has changed from not being able to hold a tune to actually being able to half metal sing...in the space of 3 years...thanks to me trying to imitate bruce dickinson, jack black, dave mustaine and hetfield :) they're the reason i can actually sing now :D
this is bs.he screwed up his voice singing so what.hes getting old.check out Rik Emmett of Triumph from their first album to surveillance album.then just a few yrs back they had a reunion show at rocklahoma in 2008.I heard his voice live I about freaked.Wondering what happened to his voice.It comes with age..check out Don Dokken even his voice is fried. the singer in petras voice is fried.If everyone is bitching about voices then SING IT YOURSELF.If you cant do better then SHUT UP!
Age is not an excuse. Lemmy from Motörhead sounds still fucking awesome after all these years. Even Bobby Blitz from Overkill sounds totally fucking metal after all these years!
he actually sings really really good nowdays...he's not using his ''classic macho hetfield'' voice anymore, but that doesn't mean he can't sing nowdays, it's just different approach 'caused by aging and change of technique...
sound is following age,,, james is getting older,, so his voice,,his stamina cant compared to when he still young/full of energy,,and,,,dont compare people from different generation....that really not fair...how coma U compare lars VS joe Jordison? or james VS someone else younger than him??...come on,,,,grow up man..
I still think he sounds the best on Black Album but that may be due to the higher standard of production
His voice didn't really bother me until St. Anger: it was around that time that some live performances just started sounding embarassing. Hence the downtuning...
@shwilly they have been using Eb live on every song since the release of load. even though load, reload, garage days, and st anger were the only albums that werent produced in standard E tuning.
The problem is he lost his voice somewhere in -89-90 and he had really been singing after that. Before it he was screaming more than singing...and it was way better then....
Yes Jame's voice has changed,but these reasons may contribute to the over 1,600 concerts these have performed in and the grueling tours that they do,or maybe the alcohol.......come on people,everyone ages! Still the greastest Heavy
1989... best voice ever!!

The problem is he lost his voice somewhere in -89-90 and he had really been singing after that. Before it he was screaming more than singing...and it was way better then....
