Machine Head - Battery

[roll1992tideroll]

rock solid cover

[iwtmltyb]

@patrickdasimpkin Nothing against Lemmy and the boys but nobody should cover a Metallica track. To me personally, no other band will compare. But, that's just my own opinion. Motorhead are still awesome, I just prefer them doing their own songs.

[jc11regnier]

@iwtmltyb Metallica covered other groups' songs too...

[mkaspecter]

This version is okay, but nothing on the original. I like all Metallica albums, but you can't get better than their old ones. Why else would so many of their songs have been covered?

[xXDrunkTOTALXx]

THIS IS REAL MUSIC! \m/



[monyet666pex]

SUCK MUSIC

[monyet666pex]

PAVORATI COVER SILLYIUM

[TheMorbidAsshole]

I WANT TO HEAR MEGADETH COVER METALLICA AND METALLICA COVER MEGADETH

[patrickdasimpkin]

@TheMorbidAsshole listen to mechanix and the four horsemen.

[TheBrayness]

@TheMorbidAsshole If Metallica covered Megadeth, Metallica would just be playing one of their songs

[liveandletrock864]

@TheBrayness id love to see kirk try to nail a broderick, friedman or polland solo. or james try to play a mustaine solo. that would be a trainwreck. or to hear james hit the notes that dave can still hit

[jaidonnn]

@liveandletrock864 Dave is a better lead guitarist by far then James but come on James has a waaaay better sounduing voice then Dave. Dave voice is just to nasal sounding

[liveandletrock864]

@jaidonnn dude i love daves voice. and he still resembles what his voice used to be and can still hit high notes. james on the otherr hand, not so much.

[TheMorbidAsshole]

@TheBrayness are you saying megadeth copied metallica ? man they are really far from each other .

[iwtmltyb]

Love Machine Head but this cover doesn't do the band justice. Nobody should cover a Metallica track, they're always gonna be disappointing. To hear Machine Head at their best, go listen to 'Davidian'.

[captainzombie13]

@iwtmltyb i agree 100% with you mang...Davidian ...so fucking brutal

[patrickdasimpkin]

@iwtmltyb Motorhead's version of whiplash was disappointing...?

[baerch1]

EPIC!

[mEtalGabiiChi]

:BB Likee! (: i love machine head ♥ and this cover is cool. Well nothing compares to original track Metallica!

[SuperMrRoxas]

21 people tried to click like while moshing.

[chromehound1]

@SuperMrRoxas

So funny

wow

[Maxpound]

I actually like this version alot...

[magicbing]

check out within the ruins cover of fight fire with fire. good shit

[kloppskalli]

nooooo... base sounds so ugly .. ugh ... no doubt abt it .. and he "sings" like a grunting pig - its not a good cover at all

[VicenteNewsted]

BFMV? Trivium? Funeral for a firend? WHAT THE... only Mastodon and Machine Head are good bands here -.-''

[panteraslipknot200]

@VicenteNewsted Wow you are an ignoramus moron. Thinking Trivium is shit and Mastondon isn't. Brb loling forever.

[stephennigga1]

@panteraslipknot200 i saw trivium live and they aren't that good man, i like mastodon but honestly they aren't that good live either,but they write amazing music unlike trivium who sucks ass. i wasn't there for the whole conversation but its pretty ignorant of you to be sarcastic about someones opinion cause its different from your own, dont be a douche bag

[panteraslipknot200]

@stephennigga1 Trivium sucking live? Haven't heard that since maybe 2004. They opened up for Dream Theatre and Iron Maiden and they blew more people away than those bands did.

[stephennigga1]

@panteraslipknot200 saw them at mahemfest last year, they blew monkey ass, machine head stole the show by far

[MarxDream]

@panteraslipknot200

Trivium was at Mansfield, Mass on July 22nd (2011) at the comcast center. They opened up for Megadeth and Godsmack and Disturbed, they were nowhere near as good as they were on the album. Especially "Like Light to the Flies". I left when I found out In Flames was still playing at the other stage.

[Lastshadow94]

@MarxDream Megadeth, Godsmack, and Disturbed... Dude, I'd kill to be there.

[Frantichardrock55]

One of the best metallica covers I've ever heard!!! \m/

[JCMoney]

@Antimalwaregeek have you heard their cover of Judas Priests "The Sentinel". It is awesome 8-)

[Antimalwaregeek]

There are 3 Machine Head covers and the amaze me. Battery (Metallica), Hallowed be thy name (Iron Maiden) and Message in a bottle (The Police)

[JoeyJordison881]

Great cover but nobody is so great like metallica :D

[skullcrusher450]

@BALLZ2ME The vocals shouldn't be the same, it's a cover

[Sardukar2219]

good cover :D Machine Head are just great

[Peterplayingguitar]

That snare sound!!!!!

[Anticrombie918]

First few chords, I said, Shit, They're gonna play it faster!

[jeordiewhitetwiggy66]

lars does not suck, he may not play the most complex beats, just as dimebag didnt play the most complex riffs sometimes, but they fit the music perfectly and he delivers it with a lot of power, so it works :)

[AggresssivePerfector]

@jeordiewhitetwiggy66 he didn't* suck, but he does now

[CarlHammett]

Nice, but Metallica's version's so much better :D

[Skater007ist]

@CarlHammett Metallica is Metallica, but this shit kick ass :D

[IWillCallHimMINIME]

Instrumental cover is great, but the vocals don't do the song justice :S Doesn't "flow" as well as the original, if you know what I mean.

[EternityInValhalla]

@IWillCallHimMINIME Personally I think it's suited to Robb Flynn. If I didn't know this was a Metallica song, I'd have said it was a Machine Head original.

[IWillCallHimMINIME]

@EternityInValhalla Well, in that case, to each their own. I won't disrespect either band by bashing the other (love them both), just my personal opinion.

[JoshWilliamHeeley]

@EternityInValhalla I think your right personally, His voice seems to suit a more thrashy song like this one (:

[cmc47834]

No, the real tunning is Standard Db tunning

Db Gb B E Ab Db

[MrMetallica26]

Nothing beats the original. It just doesn't sound right without Hetfields voice and in the guitar in drop C. Don't get me wrong, the cover great, one of the best I've heard in fact, but nothing can compare to Metallica's version!

[SuperRockgod666]

Tuning is C if anyone cares.

[8Biohazard5]

when do metalheads ever learn to upload videos in high quality. this just sounds crap because of the quality... as for most metal vids on youtube.

[theexpliotedforlife]

@8Biohazard5 Too mainstream. ;)

[irteaocusaicaro]

@8Biohazard5 actually true! I don't see HD anywhere! Must upload!

[TheLifer666]

Simply bad ass!! Machine Head just kills it!! \m/\m/

[TheMrburkester]

I laughed my ass of when he spelled remastered wrong look at 0:01

[XxMalcontentxX]

@BRAINROTAGE Bull, both Machine Head and Devolved have done awesome covers.

[honestjohntellsit]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck

[Lilmacmcmo]

I have always loved the end of this song

[fabianozonta]

better them metallica version hhahhahha. of course

[TheTallica27]

An insane Metallica fan once said...."I saw them on Long Island, outside of New York with The Sword, and Machine Head. I currently own one of Machine Head's drumsticks from that show. I'll attribute the ownership to the fact that I'm a Metal Head and I'm also 6'1", 220lbs. I can also jump...yay!! haha It was def one of the best shows I've ever been to!!! Long live METALLICA!!!

[SeinfeldJr]

Machine Head'll kick your fuckin' ass!

[BiiteThaBullet]

Holy fuck ! Machine Head are fucking legend. Its like Battery on speed ! :D

[blackshadow811]

@BiiteThaBullet its the exact same speed as metallicas

[fightboy1000]

Nice cover, fuck the haters, like to see you cunts do better!

[tourental]

i love this cover, machine head is amazing

[RAXEL77]

or DESTRUCTION covering whiplash thats a killer cover track!!

[RAXEL77]

should check out dream theater cover battery almost as good

[gh3rulz69]

i never knew they covered this!

[RaptorJesus94]

i actually prefer this version cos its more heavier

[ManiacFromGreece]

Better the original for me,same guitar and bass better vocals and better drumming

[999N0t3str34k]

horrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Crazy3189]

@999N0t3str34k How so?

[999N0t3str34k]

@Crazy3189 it just is bro. Its not music its fucking noise. Go listen to real fucking music thats actually really written like The Doors, The Grateful Dead, The Who, etc. im sick and tired of this fucking garbage ass so called "metal" music ok the only band thats considered metal to me is Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath and Deep Purple, if you don't agree with me than you can go suck my dick asshole!!!!

[Crazy3189]

@999N0t3str34k Ah you don't like metal at all. I thought it was just this cover. I can see where you are coming from but there is metal out that is really bad and noisy far worse than this, This song is nothing compared to job for a cowboy or bands like that. Metal can be very musical in the right hands not to mention some of metallicas non metal songs which are great like hero of the day or no leaf clover.

[picassopainter2]

@999N0t3str34k Here's a wild fucking thought... If you don't like something. STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM IT. I don't like penis, so I keep ones that aren't mine away from me. It's a pretty basic concept. Fuck your high horse musical tastes you ingrate.

[TrojanStrong23]

@picassopainter2 omfg nice annalogy XD XD XD

[TheRevLives360]

@999N0t3str34k You must be a troll, if not listen to Between the Buried and Me, song like Mordecai, Selkies, Viridian, Swim to the Moon show that Metal can be better musically.

[MetalJassim]

Wow... Battery performed with solid drumming, now that's cool!

[d4tr00p3r]

Machine Head = Good

Metallica = Great

Machine Head Covering Metallica = Awesome

Metallica Covering Anything = Godly

[KYUBIMATIAS]

@d4tr00p3r Metallica collaborating with Lou Reed= Atrocity. 

[The1stEpicFace]

@dfwrocker u are a justin beiber fan :O why are you watching this then, i thought you pee your self when you watch heavy metal, oh yeah you put crappy comments, thats what faggots and emo's do, so shut up you miserable gitt.

[TBRHP]

I HATE internet arguements.

[methtallica]

Amazing cover!

[theexpliotedforlife]

Dave must've been really booooored doing this.

[TheOneblackened]

@theexpliotedforlife I bet. Dave>>>>>Lars.

[The1stEpicFace]

good song. But i doubt them bands all died at exactly at the time, nevertheless i would of knew on august 24th 2009.

[jonathan8156]

i like the singing more than the originals

[hamberg42]

@jonathan8156

you suck

[xBOMBxTRACKx]

nice.

[novembrine1]

Amazing how much this sound sucks compared to the original!!!

Great performance though!

[Head666Bang]

why machine heads intro's are sooooo fucking long

[mormonshredder722]

@Head666Bang .... This is a cover of the Metallica song, Battery. Which has this "soooooo f***ing long" intro you're complaining about. You don't like it, you gtfo.

[Le5Pau1]

@mormonshredder722 Well said dude!

[IrTubbeh]

@mormonshredder722 I have to go find his fucking comment now -_- D:

[jameshopper8311]

@mormonshredder722 the intro is like the best part though :O

[kilchilly]

@Head666Bang if you like the band, stop whining about long intro's you idiot, and this is a Metallica number...

BEFORE CHOOSING A NICKNAME LIKE THAT, AT LEAST KNOW YOUR MUSIC!!!!!!

[joeenjoi]

this song is not friday

[Yudaumguitarpro]

Nylon Guitars on the start

[AWAKENxEXMORTIS]

This song is not Ride The Lightning.

[MetallicAJamyz]

man such great bands doing a cover for metallica just awesome

[Blightbane]

i love thte song but the title at 0:20 is a sad sad excuse for a "funny" metallica's name shouldnt be messed wiff

[punkrocker867]

@Blightbane ... you are retarded.

[23house23]

Every Metallica cover always has better drums.

Lars sucks face it. I've always thought of him as a huge Metallica bottleneck.

[lronmaidenRgods]

@23house23 Dont say that about mr.lars, he sucks but in this song he is at his best, So go away little emo

[gacovnica]

finally some cover with BALLS in singing.. not like dream theater cover of batery.. ( no offense to DT !! )

[fuckamericanidiot]

in some ways i prefer this, the drums are better and i prefer rob flynn's vocal to hetfield's cheesy one (does he sing like that in the shower?), but the metallica version is crisp and clear and it sounds better in standard than in c or whatever this is in

[OttoVonGoenne]

@fuckamericanidiot C# standard

[steerclear036]

@fuckamericanidiot How are Hetfields vocals cheesy? o_0

[956crazyman19]

@fuckamericanidiot james vocals cheesy? wtf lol

[fuckamericanidiot]

@956crazyman19 what are you, deaf?? james hetfield the singer of metallica, you know the one: "OOOOOHAAAGGGHHHH", "YYYYEEAAAAAGGGGGHHHH!!!" so on and so forth, the guy who sung 'CHYELL IN THE AIR COLD AS STEEYULL TOO-NAYYYT!!!"; ask yourself, does he sing like that in the shower, i severely doubt it. fuck me i think i'm losing the will to live.

[956crazyman19]

@fuckamericanidiot sounds like you dont remember james voice in the 80s

[MetalMrJohnny]

I like this song but it just isn't as good as the original. all the guitar solo's make this song good but they just aren't that good in this song but still this pancake is good

[BoratNo1]

Everyones gonna prefer the original Metallica version but I give credit for these lot putting a lot of effort into remaking this to embrace the album itself. Good effort to everyone in the 20th album anniversary.

[obaid593]

YOU RETARDS THIS SONG IS FROM MASTER OF PUPPETS!!! YOU'RE ALL DUMBASSES

[cubturbo]

Eh, as much as I like MH, the vocals just don't suit the song... Like, I like it, its just wierd sounding

[adolphmetal]

andres aqui el unico retared es tu madre

[retaphin89]

i prefer the metallica version. 

[adolphmetal]

THIS COVER WAY BETTER THAN THE ONE PLAYED BY MEGA-SHIT

[CuteSkateBrainPanda]

i prefer this from Metallica!

[1jack369]

@DFWROCKER who said it was master of puppets you cunt?

[TheMetalman68]

@1jack369

I think he doesn't know a lot of metal music lol,

I SUPPOSE that he thougt that this picture represents the song "master of puppets" and not the album...

[FuckinMetal3694]

@1jack369 LOL

[MrJoshiey]

@1jack369 STUPIDEST ARGUMENT EVER!



[kgkologlu]

@1jack369

giving answers aids his existence brother...

[d4tr00p3r]

@1jack369 i think he was refering to 0:00 through 0:02 haha

[y4rny]

@d4tr00p3r it's Kerrang! master of puppets remastered album

[GanjaPharmzor]

@1jack369 Dude. He was obviously talking about Master if Puppets. Silly you!

[OrijinalDawg]

@DFWROCKER no it's not the title says Battery did ya ever learn to read words as a kid stupid ass LOL whatta DumbFuckLMAO!!! DFWROCKER i guess stands for DumbFuckWussyROCKER LOL Take yer shit back home YARDS CLOSED INMATE

[educatedcockroach]

@OrijinalDawg RAWR!! I IS BIG ANGRY MEEETAL FAN

[DillingerEscapeMan]

@DFWROCKER This is battery you absolute swine

[jojo888999]

@DFWROCKER Are you retarded?

[chincheek1]

@DFWROCKER lol! you thick fucker!

[02danielc]

@DFWROCKER Crawl in a corner and hide in shame at your fail comment, title CLEARLY states the song is Battery.. Tards these days.

[555slipknot6sic6]

@DFWROCKER lol thanks for making me laugh with your retarded comment thanks dude XD

[df2k9]

@DFWROCKER Its a full cover version of the master of puppets album 

[KweetnGinne]

@DFWROCKER fail.

[1995bimetalhead]

@DFWROCKER fail!!!. you probably feel like such an idiot, lol.

[brndnusin]

@DFWROCKER Clearly you aren't very educated. Kerrang released a REMASTERED version of Master of Puppets on which various bands including Machine Head covered a song off the album.

[jakeyboy69]

My god, the drumming at 3:45 to 3:55 is fucking awesome. What a fantastic cover.

[crowsteel686]

it`s sound if slayer played battery but changed the voice =D

[Zawone80s]

haha better than the original IMO <3

[tjhavok]

i dont know shit about tuning or your cents... this is good cover.

[dezubiria7]

why would anyone dare 'remaster' Metallica? idiots

[anthonyhope84]

MACHINEHEAD caught the energy, fury, brutality etc. of this song, OF COURSE!!! What a badass song, original and cover!!!

[sabbath1888]

WTFucking Hell!!! Shit cover!!!

[WrestlerTripleM]

@sabbath1888 This cover is Amazing

[CampfireHedphaz]

Bludgeoning

[Infernal9666]

sounds ausom in a lower tuning

[MrDubhead666]

most excellent

[DrawlNeedler]

This would indeed be a good pancake

[crazyiskeith]

click like if your high and u are head banging to this shit! This is good SHIT! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[HannahLover138]

Groove metal band covering a thrash metal masterpiece...

And they deliver VERY nicely imo.

[lugwalder]

I always find it hard to believe that only a decade after metallica brought this amazing album out they came out with that pile of shite load

[956crazyman19]

@lugwalder hence the name load and reload and st anger as in this will anger our fans and black album was appropriate cause it signified the start of bullshit

[JoRdOguitarman1]

@lugwalder load isnt a pile of shit, bleeding me and the outlaw torn are two of the best metallica songs

[lugwalder]

@JoRdOguitarman1 I personally think it is,thats my opinion,I do think though its the only bad album they have ever done,people slag off St Anger and Reload but I dont mind them

[JoRdOguitarman1]

@lugwalder i dont think reload is half as good as load

[StallionTTT]

Machine heads drummer is amazing

[metallicaerickruiz]

pinches copias hacen k la mejor cancion de metallica se oiga pendeja

[MrShaggyJosh]

This version sounds so evil!

[juandrumsdw]

My favorite song on the master of puppets album just got heavier lol and mclain puts lars to shame my god......

[SerjTankianism]

Cover by Ensiferum is way better... In my opinion :D don't start bitching around :D

[TheDenres192]

better than original

I've been waiting for this quote for about 3 years, just to prove all you cunts wrong and tell you that i was right.

"We play in drop B tuning +40 cents for most songs and C# standard +40 cents for a handful of others. For a few songs (“Ten Ton Hammer” and “Left Unfinished”) we tune the 3rd string up a half-step for an evil 5th fret harmonic."
