  • MUSTAINE AND BURTON COMPLETED THAT BAND. PERIOD. NOW THEY ARE HALF METALLICA.

  • Just wanted to make a couple corrections in your video. Hope you don't take it personal. To live is to die was a bunch of riffs written by cliff. James and Lars arranged the song out of those riffs. So technically all three wrote the song. Also the lyrics are not a quote of Cliff. They are from a poem by a German poet named Paul Gerhardt that Cliff liked.

  • I just heard the intro to Hit the Lights and poush the like buttom

  • Hetfield said that he walks for miles and didn't found any black ice

  • on the first photo, lars looks like a girl.. XD

  • Man, I wish i was born in the 70's so i would be 16 When They were on the Master Of Puppets tour. I Feel like a knew Cliff personally. Thx for the videos man! Keep em coming

  • Metallica rules the world!!!!

  • @kankuj23 ur a fucking douchebag man. Respect for Cliff Burton and All Of Metallica bro. Why dont you just print it on your ass???

  • these guys plus the new wave of bristish heavy metal inspired me to become a guitar player for a band who loved the old school heavy metal back then when MUSIC WAS FUCKING MUSIC, my dream is to make true heavy metal and show the nation what music truly is

  • Dave Mustaine was the mastermind of Metallica...

  • r.i.p. cliff

    he was the best

  • Kirk is a Beast

  • Yeah and Dave Mustaine he made all metallica albums exept for st anger yeah

  • @Marrodamaan why do people give mustaine THAT much credit? he wrote a little in kill 'em all and ride the lightning, nothing in master of puppets (except he claims a little bit of leper messiah but not confirmed) and nothing in the rest of the albums, how did he make all the albums? seriously.

  • @Folino46

    I was'nt serious lol. Im with you. I don't even think he write some in ride the lightning actually

  • excellentexcellentexcellentexc­ellent!!!!!!!!!!

  • the bus didnt hit black ice

  • @potpierulez yeah and how would you know, where you there? standing on the road?

  • @Folino46 if you watch the actual documentaries and actually follow metallica, kirk and james say that they check for black ice near the road. and they said that there were none

  • kool i am not saying hes not but i prefer mustain than kurk

  • Kirk's a little bitch, who made a living off Dave's hard work

  • man fuck lars ulrich looks like of a fucken chick and if metalica would gave Dave Mustain a second chance metalica would of been bigger than what is today. RIP in peace Cliff Burton greates bass player ever . MEGADETH YEA! Nno offence to metalica or its fans they are bad ass and thanks to them MEGADETH was born

  • Dude your dumb Kirk is fuckin beast

  • aww NO HOMO but fuekn lars looks adorable haha

  • the bus didnt skid on black ice

  • Good job dude. it pays respect towards the band and Cliff. R.I.P. Cliff Burton

  • your forgetting the part where dave mustaine was forced to beat everyone in metallica up because a fight was bound to break out when james kicked dave's dog

  • wait a minute it was actually when Lars put an ad on the newspaper James answered and brought Dave with him who he already knew and they both tried out and got the job

  • 0:21 I have a friend that looks EXACTLY like Lars does in that picture.

  • R.I.P. Cliff Burton 1962-1986!

  • shh! SHH! SHH!! Shut the fuck up! You're going to start a chain of who's better, Hammett/Mustaine fight!

  • lol u made me chuckle i could imagine u saying shh! SHH! SHH! lol but ur right though

  • Cliff Burton will always be remembered! R.I.P. Cliff Burton 1962-1986! The best bassist player ever!!! No one can't beat Cliff Burton, not even Jason Newsted or Robert Trujillo! Nobody! BANG THAT HEAD THAT DOESNT BANG!

  • METALLICA RULES!!!

    Dave Mustaine play speed for Metallica! He was fast!

    When he got fired! Kirk Hammett became a new guitarist for Metallica! They didnt became fast! Kirk wasnt quick enough but he is perfect guitarist for Metallica!

    It's a good thing Metallica fired Dave Mustaine because there will be no Megadeth! Good thing there's a band Megadeth now!

    Metallica and Megadeth Rules!!!

  • @orlandoking Why are you stating the fucking obvious? Everyone knows More about metallica than you do punk, stop showing off what you just learnt you Poser.

  • @BadassAnons

    No one cares what you think! If you know more about these bands, why not tell us instead! I was there in the 80s and I guess you're new to this! If you're mad, I suggest to stay away from my comment!

  • @orlandoking YEAH, and how old were you in the 80s? 3? I was in my 30s actually, during the 80s.... Oh yeah. And i've actually been to numerous metallica shows. Have you? Dude i have so much knowledge of the 80s and thrash that you even telling me i'm new to this is like you telling me i'm not a human being. As far as i'm concerned you think you know alot, well zip your vagina whore you don't know shit.

  • @BadassAnons You need to shut your mouth and you're still arguing about this! Get over with it! My comment was 2 years ago and you need to get over with it! You're the first person who dislike my 2 year old comment and dude this is old! I'm not mad at you, all I want for you is to leave my comment alone and let others "like" my comment!

  • @orlandoking Yeah yeah, whatever, I couldn't resist sounding your ass when you said I wasn't in the 80s and you were O.O WOW! Lol. Fine, i'll let you be.

  • @orlandoking You have the best comment on YouTube, no joke,

  • so james and lars started metallica?

  • Yeah lars put an ad in the paper looking for a guitarist. Then james and lars put an ad in th paper looking for a lead. they got a reply from mustaine!

  • They played their really first demo with Lloyd Grant on lead guitar and James Hetfield on bass and vocals and lars ulrich on drums.

  • fuck no james

  • ur an idiot pink floyd is not a punk band neither is thin lizzy, i mean how stupid can u b? u should know that

  • Pink Floyd PUNK?!!? LOL?!!? Is that guy serious??

  • i know thats wat i said

  • lol who said that

  • R.I.P. Cliff Burton 1962-1986

    He died in sweden, where I live!

  • To live is to die..

    In My Darkest Hour..

  • Actually, Ron quit because he felt like he was more of a manager than a bassist. But Mustaine prob. contributed.

  • my mom went to a shit load of metallica shows in the 80's... i was probably conceived in one of them cuz she was a whore

  • haha. it was probably me that fucked her. lol jk. i wasn't even born to get to go to one of their early concerts

  • james hetfield was the one who answered the add

  • yea

    and another dead as well

  • dude i think lars posted the add in 1981 then metallica was formed October 1981

  • so wat songs did metallica wrote when dave mustaine was still in the band??

  • if you look in the little booklet that comes with the CD u'll see that dave mustain helped write most of the material from the first two albums and a little on Master Of Puppets

  • but i dont think he helped write master of puppets

  • dave wasnt in the band for master

  • ik that was a relpy to sum guy that said that dave help metallica write master.. i know that dave wasnt in the band !! METALLICA RULES!

  • it was james and lars there started the band.

    not lars and dave

  • no the newspaper ad that this video spoke of wasnt the original newspaper add. This was the second one that was placed looking for a lead guitarist. James was already in the band but Lars was still calling the shots since he was the founder of metallica so the author of this video didnt mention that james was in the picture already

  • good job its awesome

  • there was no black Ice found on the road. R.I.P CLiff Burton

  • So What ! if metallica sold out your not a true Metallica ! fan if you hat them because they sold out or you think they done a few shitty albums No that stupid all there albums are brilliant mustaine has done a pretty good job with megadeth not as good as metallica

    RIP Cliff

    wish newsted was still there

    Rob Trujillo is also brilliant

    Metallica Rock !

  • Metallica best 1980 - 2000

    2001 - 2008 Fuck

  • metallica changed during fully changed during the black album, the "sell out" happend during afja

  • wat???

    but they were both badass albums

  • davee is god

    long live

    MEGADETH!!!

  • am i the only one there have noticed that he forgot kirk

  • Ron McGovney pictured, nice! P.S. GREAT VIDEO!

  • wat is the song at end?

  • blackened

  • around 4:20 beginns blackened.Before that is To live is to die

  • the bus didnt even drive on a road with eyes? right after they saw cliff, james and lars run to the bus driver and asked what happend..and the bus driver said it was to much ice one the road and it maked the wheel slice..james checked the road to 1000 meter without finding ice..and a buss doesnt jump when the tires slip on ice

  • Cliff Burton RIP

  • dude nice job on the vid

  • Dave was a good guitarist, blah blah blah, but he was an asshole. Good thing he found a way out of that and formed Megadeath. He should thank Metallica for waking him up, otherwise he could have gone worse if he stayed with them and didn't get help. Metallica would not even lift off probably. Dave's addiction will ruin metallica definitely if they didn't get rid of him. Thanks for the vid man.

  • thanks for posting this mann!!badass

  • the best two members.

    The two guys who suck kicked out a god lol

    It's really to bad cliff died he really brought soul to the band

  • @symphonyxftw Hey, James had an amazing voice, and was pretty good at guitar. Dave was just too crazy back then.

  • Thanks for this post. Many do not know facts on how Cliff died. Many youtube viewers are entirely wrong. I remember listening to my favorite PURE ROCK radio station KNAC when they announced his death back in 1986. Your facts match the report. I still remember him and I still think his loss is a loss to the music world. Imagine what his playing would be like today.

  • im from sweden....

  • OH NO CLIFF DIED IN SWEDEN!!!

  • very well done, you forgot alot of stuff, but it was still great.

  • actually the tour bus driver didnt hit black ice he just drove of the road cuz he was drunk or somethin.......

  • Yea L.A. didnt treat metallica well like they said. they were to punk for the metal heads, and to metal for the punk scene cuz is was a whole new sound for everybody ppl hadnt heard it before so they werent used to it. And also L.A. had the whole G.ay L. A. M.etal scene and shit full of fake ppl so they moved to san fran they had to. Good move to they needed to so they could start their new sound and their carrer would flourish. \m/

  • your right about the decline of metallica and how it happened, but megadeth had their "sell out" appeal to everyone albums. also, now with death magnetic out metallica went back to thier roots for the most part. but the story of metallica is a sad one.

  • think ur forgetting bout RISK and other load like megadeth releases

  • Dave made risk because Lars told him that he wasnt taking enough RISKS with his music and risk proved that changing your music style DOESNT WORK think of risk as megadeths st anger at least risk had melody to it st anger sucked ass as far as other LOAD type albums System Has Failed, World Needs a Hero and United Abominations had thrash solos metallicas death magnetic is justice and st anger with load solos megadeth will always be a faster metal band tallica turned thrash into trash Dave Rocks

  • When Metallica started they had a Metal Maniacs dream team James Vocals Lars Drums Dave(Lead Thrash)Guitar and CLIFF! best bassist EVER!(RIP)there mission to be the FASTEST band on the planet then dave got kicked out for being an asshole so what put him in a cage when ur ready unleash him not like hes the first asshole in any band BIG MISTAKE then the real tradegity cliff died Dave and Cliff wrote bout 80% of metallicas first 3 cds with dave and cliffs departure the decline of tallica had begun

  • justice still had cliffs influence wasnt fast but fast enough to be a great metallica cd then speed turned into greed and they said lets make a cd that not only thrash fans like but everybody likes behold the black album the perfect blend of thrash elements mixed with heavy metal fastest band no longer popularity and money wins no more thrash we r the best cause everyone says so (sellouts) now we can make music any way we want to me if any other band made load - death magnetic

  • they would be considered classics but this is metallica they can do better we've heard them fans buy the new stuff cause it says metallica on the cover 2 me Megadeth will always be the better band they have stayed consistant dave has dun wat he set out to do when he started be the fastest metal band in history even cryptic writings and younthanaisa were faster than the load cds dave is still aggressive doesnt care what anyone thinks bout his music he is THRASH METAL and wont change MEGADETH!!!!

  • this video has a lot of wrong information

  • the best things about metallica were dave and cliff

  • agreed..and hetfield

  • they probably would have kicked out lars

  • Megadeth and Metallica are both incredibly amazing bands, i wonder what life'd be like if mustaine wasnt kicked out tho O.o

  • I honestly dont think it would change anyones live. . .except maybe dave mustaines and metallicas

  • Dave Mustaine is GOD !

  • Amen

  • Well, EX-bassist

  • Cliff uses a pick? Are you sure, cuz I wouldn't have thought that until you said it. I know Megadeth's bassist Dave Ellefson (another underrated bassist) uses one, though

  • Well, Shavo Odadjian uses a pick too.

  • shavo would use his fingers on some songs but not alot

    LONG LIVE METALLICA

  • Yes you're right. And yeah, LONG LIVE METALLICA.

  • no he used a pick called his fingers

  • he used a pick for battery u can hear it

  • really weird. and whats even more weird im listening to battey

  • Dave Ellefson is an awesome metal bassist. I put him right up there with Cliff, Geddy Lee, Geezer Butler, and Steve Harris

  • He is definetly underrated. Who gives a fuck if he uses a pick?

  • the first picture is with RON not CLIFF

  • quit puttin this shit on here its anoting

  • You missed like 4 years dude. You skipped 3 albums.

  • I wonder how Metallica would be if Cliff was alive and Dave was still part of the band?

  • That would be fucking awsome if both of them would be in the band to this day...

  • Cliff definately, but if Dave je-joined that'd mean no more Megadeth...

  • Ron McGovney used to have an E-bay account where he sold all of the items James gave to him over the years. I think they still chill today.

  • i think we should thank the ad for bringing lars and james together.

    cheers!

    =D

  • RIP CLIFF ;( its sad that he died, he didnt diserve to die whenever i hear the story i get all teary eyed

    lol, srry i sound like a puss but cliff rules and he shouldnt have died

  • Damn man I cry over the same shit so don't swet it. Cliff fuckin rules. And all the true fans know it.

  • who is the guy next to hetfield?in(0:23)

  • The first bass player in Metallica. His name is Ron McGovney. They got rid of him before they recorded their first album so he never recorded anything with them.

  • he quit the band cause of mustaine which worked out pretty good thank mustaine for cliff.

  • I thank God for Cliff's music. I never cared for Mustaine/Megadeth.

  • thats cool. i find megadeth better but thats just me i still like metllica but megadeth to me has better musicians

  • I saw Megadeth in concert on the Peace Sells tour. Their bassist, Dave Ellefson I believe his name is, was very good.

  • yea dude David ellefeson rules man, he has a bass solo on youtube its cool. do you know what jackson bass he used?

  • That was 20 years ago. LOL I can't remember which model it was. I knew it was a Jackson by their trademark head design.

  • and thanks for metallica for kicking mustaine out for making megadeth

  • dave mustaine i think... later megadeath

  • lol, Megadeth, only one a. Everyone spells it Megadeath i don't know why. That was the first thing I noticed when I listened to them, one a.

  • Anesthesia kicks ass.

  • Seriously, that is the best god damn piece of music ever written!

    +1 for your comment!!!

  • +1 for you for +1-ing me xD

  • + 1 to both of you for supporting Metallica

  • +1 to you for supporting supporters

  • hahahaha

  • what the song at 03:09?

    R.I.P Cliff

  • to live is to die.....Puts a tear in your eye.

  • I love mustaine more then anyone do ! lol, SEEK AND DESTROY !

  • I do respect ur feelings but i think the same as you do

  • wow! that's a great opinion

    you surely know a lot about music ¿uh?

    asshole

    you should kill yourself.

  • Yeah thanks. I know that the bass is basically cut out of nearly every track on every album put out! I also know its nearly impossible to hear at live shows. Aparently this hasnt sunk in with you yet.

  • you're retarded

  • cliff taught metallica how to write song and dave wrote great riffs without cliffs influence metallica would suck and if you can't hear his bass yours need to be cleaned or you must be retarded (excellent argument)

  • Why do you think your better than the mentally disabled???

  • man you got issues.. how the fuck you cant hear the bass?? are you sick?? or you are just stupid!!

  • Listen to Kill 'em All, Ride The Lightning and Master of Puppets, if you can hear cliffs bass which btw defined their early music by being as loud as it was you need to get your ears checked.

    Cliff even played Lead of several songs because of his epic skills. Have you heard metallica? at times they would edit their songs to turn down his bass because it was so loud.

  • nvm hlaf of my comment didnt read what you wrote over becuase youtube some times don't place replies properly. But seriously Cliff defined Metallicas music like dave did with his rough riffs that spelled Thrash Metal all over them.

  • Maybe because Metallica totally went downhill after Cliff died, so it seems like Cliff influenced Metallica to be more heavy

  • For anyone besides the people involved in the situation to pass any sort of judgment on those involved is nothing but inappropriate. Now while a lot of aspects of the two bands are similar and very comparable, it means nothing to try to say how much this sounds like this from Metallica and that sounds like this from Megadeth. Many of the songs on Kill 'Em All were written if not completely then in part by Mustaine. Now while people are quick to pass judgment and say "They stole his songs!FUCKU2B

  • First of all, if I hear another one of you pre-pubescent kids talk about how much Megadeth sucks or how Lars and James are faggots for kicking out Dave, I swear to god I'm going to start ripping my hair out. Metallica and Megadeth are two COMPLETELY different bands. Did you know that after the SKOM interview and actually a couple of months prior to it, Lars Ulrich and Dave Mustaine had actually settled their differences and come to terms with everything that had happened in the past?
