@JonMan7794 dude dave has toured with other bands. just because he was not with slayer does not mean he stopped playing. Dave is a better drummer and has played a more aggresive style for years. I love Metallica and Ulrich when he was younger was a very very good drummer, but stop making excuses. Makes you look pathetic.
@bobokk Degenerate, I don't have any respect for 'ADTR' definitely wouldn't find me doing a cover, but I have respect for Sylosis, hence covering them. If you don't have a comment that poses any sort of truth or interest then shut the fuck up.
@VideoMask93 Definitely, Lars used to be one of the most influent Heavy Metal Drummers. His double bass speed was insane! Later, Dave Lombardo appeared :P
@constantinople610 Actually, it sounded like they replaced the bass solo with a synthesizer solo... Either that or Troy should lay off the pitch shifting pedals ^^
I really like the drum sound on this version, but it's just a refelction of the change of times and styles. I love the Cliff Burton version on bass though. He was a bass player above all others in metal.
@FoxWBogart I agree. This song is awesome all the way up to the slow(er) part, but I think they were lacking in the latter half: it lacked the soul that the original has. That being said, I am pretty stoked about "The Hunter."
I will say just one thing. In my country they used to reffer to Mastodon as the second Mettallica, with a totally positive meaning. Now they say nothing and the reason is simply. Mastodon whatever they wyll do, will simply remain what they are now, a good band. Notheing more, nothing less. They are overestimated and I hate this...
@Kororock dude, comparing anyone to metallica just isn't fair. and mastodon is such a different band. they make much different music, and as a whole they just totally different. i mean i respect your opinion, but no need to hate man
At both of you, when i play this live, I'm using a bass...with distortion pedal, bass chords, and some vibrato bending :X sounds exactly the same if i tap it right. so idk about album versions but im pretty sure he's doing the same as what he did for the anesthesia take.
The beginning of Orion on MOP is played with a distorted organ and then played in reverse, Mastodon just uses a distorted bass guitar so it sounds different but still the same notes.
@LOCOARTSak I think it may even say it in the MOP album's liner notes, but I have read in two different interviews from metallica members that it is a distorted Hammond organ, and I believe played in reverse.
@pgriff69 well you got me there as I don't have it, but I insist I did indeed read it in a couple different spots (before Wikipedia). Just know, the intro to Metallica's Orion is played on a distorted Hammond organ.
@kingv911 dude just watch cliff em all as i did like a thousand times and they show the recording process of orion and they show exactly what uses because that same intro is taken from the song anesthesia exact same equipment except in the intro for orion he uses wah wah to make sound like an organ. js thats all
@kingv911 It's a bass intro. Everybody knows it's a bass intro. I don't know where the hell you got that it's a Hammond organ, but it's a bass intro. Given the scarce amount of Cliff Burton's recorded work, people have identified and analyzed everything. This is, without a shadow of a doubt, a bass intro.
@Zuwayed everybody doesn't know for sure. I believe the official Master of Puppets guitar music book says the intro was played on a Hammond organ. Go to a music store and see for yourself.
it sounds really natural for mastodon they didnt struggle to bring it to metallicas level because its already on there level (if that makes sence to anyone else but me)
they need to crank up the bas a lil more... i mean the bass is the most important part of the song and i can barley hear it at the end. But other than that, it was a grood cover. Obviously didnt beat Metallica's, but still great. Especially loved the dropped tuning.
Owning 'Tallica's entire Discography means you get a feel for how they play.
There is not a single song they have made that I can say I dont like.
And People who say St. Anger was shit, I recommend you listen again.
Frantic, Shoot Me Again and The Unamed Feeling are like dirty diamonds. Just becuase they dont look the same as real diamonds doesnt mean they're worth less.
Seen 'em Play O2 Arena London twice.
Best fucking Gigs I have ever seen!!! Next gig they play there I'm IN!!
this is just a sic cover. better recorded than the origonal and sadly better played than the origonal. the 2 solos are very different and mastadon nailed it solid to the fukin wall. you need to hear ths REALLY load to get it properly, your laptop speakers wont do this justice. the way that guitar sqeals down at 7.19 is just an outstanding adition to wat was already one of my fav tallica songs ever rock on!!!!!
Love Mastodon, find Metallica a bit naff though..don't know why, they just never really gelled with me.. i came to Mastodon through Neurosis, and before that prog rock prolly why..good cover though :P
y a cheese lol, but i mean personally me when i look at a cover i think damn i wonder what they'll do to, and im a metalica fan as u can see. also a mastodon fan. and i no i shall piss many off by saying this . but i dont care. i like it better than the original
