Interview: Kirk Hammett Likes Bluegrass Tribute to Metallica

[UglyKidMetallica81]

this is the interview from Norway! :)...

[sickasylum]

surprised lars aint takin them to court.... LOL.

[mocatmancb]

thought you were my friend is the original lyric. several vids with lyrics on here, ozzy singing paranoid

[mocatmancb]

the metallica cover is cool, but check out iron horse's black & bluegrass(a tribute to ozzy osbourne). the paranoid cover is bad ass creepy sounding shit.

[LordZack0092]

ya he changes the line, "occupy my brain" to "i thought you were my friend"

[ScreamingBloodyGore]

Heyyy!!! look, its one of the sell-out kings! Of course he loves bluegrass... It puts his sell out albums up front to new kids.

[alexfanx]

Yes, because all the kids on MTV love bluegrass.

[ScreamingBloodyGore]

Notice how I said "new kids." MTV fans =/= "New kids."

Yup, you're an idiot.

[alexfanx]

Oh, I'm sorry, Myspace. But seriously is bluegrass really that trendy?

[ScreamingBloodyGore]

Wow, really, myspace, which is just as trendy as MTV? THAT is your substitution? It's not about being TRENDY. Bluegrass is rather popular, while not "trendy," amongst the country counter-culture. Popular within a different culture=many, many new fans.

Yup, you're still a fucking moron.

[alexfanx]

I doubt those people are going to become Metallica fans if they aren't already.

And you're still a fat fuck.

[ScreamingBloodyGore]

Yeah, because it's completely impossible that, you know, they haven't experienced metallica yet, huh? Someone growing up in an entirely different musical culture has OF COURSE already heard metallica.

And hey, guess what?!  Not only are you a fucking moron, but you are ALSO a dumbass who's best insult is to state obvious physical features of his intellectual superiors!

[alexfanx]

Intellectual superiors? LOL, fat and pretentious.

[ScreamingBloodyGore]

Given your shown grammatical ability, verbosity, and aptitude for ad hominem arguments, it's quite clear that I am your intellectual superior. In order to erase any implications of cockiness, I would like to state that it isn't very hard to be more intelligent than someone with your parameters of thought.

[alexfanx]

Heyyy!!! It's a sellout fucking moron dumbass.

[ScreamingBloodyGore]

That ignorance of yours is rearing its ugly head again. You should find something to fix that. Try education.

[alexfanx]

You could use some punctuation lessons as well.

[ScreamingBloodyGore]

A step in the right direction, for you, it would seem. Unfortunately, your claim is baseless and lacks cited evidence. At least you dropped that pathetic ad hominem assault.

[alexfanx]

You could use a few semicolons here and there, albeit my grammar and punctuation is still poor.

[ScreamingBloodyGore]

I find that I normally abuse the semicolon, and in truth, it's not really that necessary. I haven't metaphorically overdosed on commas in any of my sentences; at least not to the point of requiring a semicolon. Well, I hope you're satisfied with that semi-colon.

[RedGrunt117]

To think that I would actually find an intelligent human being on Youtube...

[ScreamingBloodyGore]

You better believe it!

[MrGeltabs]

@ScreamingBloodyGore  Who wins if you are intellectually superior but yet he has you on the ground beating you with his fists, then the said individual starts beating you with his feet then what??? Who wins then the intellectually superior person that was beat down or the dumbass giving the beating??? Now personally (that is me) as a intellectually superior person I would have a .44 magnum Like my boi Clint and would win easily

[mechaghostman2]

@MrGeltabs

That's the way to go, use a gun. Retarted monkees that don't know their dick from their thumb are too stupid to get one, or use one. Guns rule!!!! LOL!

[triviumXfan56]

lol that screamingbloddygore guy is a fag.. i bet hes a lvl 80. goblin master on World of Warcraft

[alexfanx]

I don't even know what that means.

[Alkinoos7]

@alexfanx it means that the guy that said it is a 15 year old nerd that sits for hours and hours by the PC playing a sucker game called World of Warcraft... So never mind him

[kalloused]

what is this...i don't even

[MetalKnight86]

This reminds me; When I went to see Metallica in Boston, Iron Horse's version of One played while they were packing up after the show.

[meavid]

Holy shit.

[teddycozmik]

Instrumental would be nice. That southern voice ruins the song. The bluegrass is solid though.

[mauro987]

well brother, it's a bluegrass version of those song, it's supposed to be all redneck pure bluegrass, metal vocals would ruin the whole idea of a bluegrass cover

[RikkWolf]

While it's necessary to the songs, I'll agree the voice spoils it for me too. Way annoying.

[jeremy12345d]

@teddycozmik the whole point is for it to be southern dumbass

[LanceCorporate]

Not til Lars says he can say that!

[jonathaniscool531]

lol nice.

[theleg222]

No its more like Lars would say that.

[aebark]

My grass is blue!

[hbill3]

My shit is Purple!

[uraydo]

the interview goes on and Kirk mentions the "Rockabye Baby" album, which is Metallica recomposed as lullabies. also very cool, but more of a stretch than the blue grass stuff.

[gparboy]

= blackgrass

[MaceAce64]

straight

[MikaOwns]

Kirk is just too nice. They obviously butchered their music.

[BOOSH68]

sounds cool lol

[n8phin]

MikaOwns is just too closed-minded. He obviously can't comprehend the fact that people have the ability to appreciate multiple genres of music.

[MikaOwns]

Ya I can't comprehend why people listen to shitty music. Got me there man!

[n8phin]

Ah yes, your opinion is absolute. If people do not agree with your subjective views they are automatically wrong. Got me there man!

Ass.

[MikaOwns]

*sigh*

youtards are ridiculous...

[MikaOwns]

Bluegrass is fine for the people that like it. Just don't make some shitty remix of Metallica masterpieces. If you don't get that, then you sir must have a huge boner for bluegrass.

[n8phin]

Damn, you're good at this "debating" thing You're right. I do. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go look for other people to annoy.

Trolling YouTube is fun! ^^

[MikaOwns]

LoL no worries I deal with trolls all the time on here. I think they are special little people :)

[Guandy]

lol, arne johannesen x)

[funkmasterchilly]

you mean Metallica isn't crying about this to.  boo hoo their stealing are music.

[helloduo]

*our

[emoelmo1007]

rcist son of a bith go jerk off

[McCoy3378]

if you guys like rockgrass then you should check out hayseed dixie, started out as a ac/dc tribute band but now covers anything and everything rock. their comfortably numb is kickass

[KissMeImPunk]

Metal + Bluegrass = Blue Metal

[999Gryphon999]

Black Metal + Bluegrass = ???

[KissMeImPunk]

Bruisegrass.

[ThunderAppeal]

Sounds like a chinese Blues Grass Metal.

[MrBrownstone888]

bruised metal

[buprenorphed24]

What the fuck? Black Metal? HJahahahaha you mug. MEtallica aint black metal hahahah

[999Gryphon999]

when did i say metallica was black metal?? learn to read.

[PsychordsMusics]

Blackgrass ?

[Dataplayer]

bluegrass

[coolaseva]

hahaha! cute!

[yaxxbass]

and led zippin

[Ultradeth5]

they do ozzy songs too = p

[yaxxbass]

so fucking weird!

[JWFokker]

I wish they did more Ride the Lightning covers (why no Master of Puppets covers?) and less Black Album stuff. Wherever I May Roam is not one of Metallica's best songs by any means.

[MrBrownstone888]

youre on crack, they made an entire tour namedd around that song

[CheepieINC]

They did, it's on volume 2, you should get it.

:D

[Fosterpimp]

I have that CD, fade to bluegrass, and it is Very Interesting, indeed.
