[KB3MMX]

Awesome!

[Kingofmean]

Metallica should bow to these men for doing such a good and unique cover.

[thewhiskeyrebel77]

wtf?!?! some of the coolest tunes i heard in a long time.

[TheAcerwest]

sounds amazing if ya cant feel it inside ya you should navigate away from this amazing page!!

[TheFelipega]

It's easy to describe this: there is no word to describe this!

[speed150mph]

I wish i could say that this is the first time Ive seen the banjo take to a new form of music, but i heard the long dropkick murphys before this

[Kingofmean]

@speed150mph so the fuck what?

[PaupersPrincess]

Ooooooh

[mcgrubber]

It's like Natalie Portman eating out Mila Kunis in your ears

[carnivore74]

wow....mind =  blown!

[SuperWeedPower]

i love it

[implant760]

yes awesome!

[coltonandsydney123]

Nice! You should tty in jazz version or pop version! Send it to me if you fo

[DudicusPrime]

Say what you will, a good song will sound good regardless of how it is played. That being said, when bluegrass is done well, it reveals the true heart and soul of a song. This is a shinning example of such a song. Thanks for posting this.

[JakeBeoulve]

Wow. This song is so dark, even THIS version depresses me. I... Love... Metallica.

[cat2972]

wow i need tab for this i can kinda do by ear but i havent got it all

[18francesco18]

@cat2972 How do you play it ? I don't think the chord progression is AM-C-G-EM like the original one.

[MrGinger2931]

goddamn this is good

[kremit73]

this playlist is bullshit, it claimed to be an ironhorse playlist and there are only 3 ironhorse songs in the first 40 freaking songs

[ppardee]

this is freakin' AWESOME!

[omgonesolo]

I think they should recruit a fiddle player to shred on the solos, that would add just that much more to these amazing covers.

[HitlerOnTheRoof]

I love the ukelele version of Fade to Black.

[deeznutzjrb]

the banjo is really catchy its great.

[metalmattm]

3:06 i'm like "Oh shit! here it comes!"

[a7xfan66611]

@metalmattm that's what she said :D................it was necessary lol

[panthercheercoach]

Awesome job!!!!!!

[mmthalabi]

Bluegrass isn't suitable for sad songs ! :D

[darthsasuke554]

@mmthalabi Bluegrass and sadness rarely ever go together. Even when bluegrass tries to be sad your always smiling the whole time :D Such happy music

[Davetopay]

@mmthalabi

You need to get out there and listen to some of the really strong minor harmonies and the the subject matter of non-commercial, traditional bluegrass. It makes old school country songs about booze, murder, wifebeating and misery seem like nursery rhymes.

[mennock18]

23 PPL ARE FAGGS



[jimikimball]

Wow bluegrass sucks.

[phllpbrkr]

I love bluegrass but this just doesn't work.

[narule]

Just another great song by these guys...Check out their Modest Mouse covers as well....all amazing!

[hayvizzletoooh]

some of the best shit i've ever heard truthfully! this from a guy named muttley.

[MrHelloecho]

SHouldn't it be called Blackgrass?

[boggsty]

and gaddammit.. this'n here rocks yer barn! git it, y'all hear!!

[phillynn79]

Top Fucking Shelf!

[metalmongar]

Honestly I like this version better than Metallicas origional, I think has a little bit more feeling into, more sadness.....all in all kickass

[PsychopathicChipmunk]

Holy crap. I just listened to this entire album. I think I just had a bluegrasm.

[Gunxtha]

Outstanding!!!

[metallica4ev]

theyre actually pretty good but i think they should leave the emotional songs like fade to black, the unforgiven, type stuff alone because i really dont think they capture the essence of the song, i mean i feel like the banjo here makes me feel like idk should i be laughing while i cut my wrists ? lol

obviously i dont slit my wrists thats an emo's job but u guys get what i mean

[MrDmnhntr777]

@metallica4ev those songs are best left to chello. such as the group apakolyptica. i think i spelled that right

[infernoburrito]

@MrDmnhntr777 spelled it wrong, please try again.

[MrDmnhntr777]

@infernoburrito cello hows that lol

[infernoburrito]

@MrDmnhntr777 I didn't notice that one. You also failed at spelling "Apocalyptica," but I'm no grammar nazi. Good day!

[SpitMucus69]

Damn im ashamed to be from kentucky!!! :/

[killswitch2559]

@SpitMucus69 WHAT!!! why dude, this kicks ass

[SpitMucus69]

@killswitch2559 Naw i was just being sarcastic. This does kickass

[Diamondguyrt]

This couldnt have been a bluegrass song first and metallica could have been the ones that did the rock remake.THIS LYRICALLY sounds country or blue grass more so than metal......and how freaking great is this?FANTASTIC!

[UnwritingATragedy]

Metallica listens to this in their tour van... lol :D

[TheLyonhard]

Wonderful!



[7xfana]

i like it.



[JAK0E]

great job iron horse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[12yearsoldkid]

i wish they did the solo!

[rockman933]

esto es realmente malo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

no me agrada para nada

[jackdude2448]

23 People wont to bone Justin Beiber!

[XxJacksonRhoadsxX]

YEEEEEE FUCKING HAWWWWWWWWW!

[Hear4Metallica]

Excellent, perhaps Iron Horses' best as far as catching the lonesome desperation of the original. The eary depth of the chorus is brilliant. You HAVE to sing along. This cover would have been apt and successful 70 years ago.

[rhysrox15]

KICKASS SOLO! hahahah

[Bizibizidis]

just fucking great!!!

[DigCymro92]

Who knew a banjo could be so metal

[Rechkalov7]

Not enough people know iron horse, They freaking rule.

[IronMetalHead150]

This is the only cover of Fade To Black that gets the opening line right "Life it seems will fade away" every other band says "Life it seems to fade away"

[bojance11pa]

two kinds of music that I like in one :D

[aReasonableMan12]

Thanks for doing this music in this style. You're mixing it up in the best way. I am most grateful for thee and thine and stuff. Keep up the good work. I am going to check out the interview with Kirk Hammett next, and then some more songs!

[luiscanet]

Nice very nice

Vraiment c'est magnifique

Excelente version, cuando amas algo amas todas sus formas y amo esta cancion este grupo y ahora esta version GENIAL

ENJOY GUY'S !!!

[edgortizland]

Ahora respeto al pastoazul!

[TheEvilPrince1]

i really hate this kind of music but this is not bad actully pretty good

[gta4maniac2]

They didn't do any of the good parts of the song

[vaza87]

@gta4maniac2 the song don't have any bad parts...

[MegaManSuits]

@gta4maniac2 fuck you fag

[SiriusMined]

@gta4maniac2

The whole song is the "good part"

[MrYamahar1man]

Bluegrass isnt just hick music. Its all good. Great tribute to Metallica. Where can I get a Cd of this. And if you ever need a dobro player hit me up!!!!

[SiriusMined]

@MrYamahar1man

I agree.

I generally despise country music, but there is something appealing about bluegrass.

[MrSeanne]

awesome tribute,just love when bands do covers and make it their "own".....covers are kinda pointless otherwise......:)

[ASPEDBUSDRIVER1]

pleasant suprise. Never thought I stumble across something like this on youtube. Very creative.

[XxXBigWapumxXx]

this is cool

[PeetzaSkate]

Yeeeehhhaawww. Lmfao

[adrian14643]

man i love me sum blue grass and i love me sum Jesus

[jmzsil]

this still sounds better than patty bone. i mean pat bone.

[Weslythethird]

atronach



[Hasknutimuskyl]

For anyone NOT respecting this tribute:

At least Kirk Hammet does !^^

[a3th3r]

jesus christ this is bad. 

[MVEFdude]

lol blue grass just totally ruined this song

[kkseer]

Awesomeness

[Illidan2210dejan]

i fucking love this tribute

[BarnaclesGarona]

This is a great band. I heard this on Project Playlist when I was looking for Metallica, and it really took to me after listening to it.

I'm definately going to give these guys a look-up.

Excellent cover. Covers are always done by the same genre, and usually sound terrible, but I find a kind of pleasant and different view when you guys play this song.

Excellent, and 5 star.

[warbenoon]

IRON HORSE DIE MOTHER FUCKERS

[orfeasdaron]

this is so fucking brilliant and genius.respect.

[orfeasdaron]

xaxa .fantastic

[piketormenter]

Good music transcends styles. That's why Bach sounds good no matter what instruments play him.

[blueckaym]

@piketormenter Perfectly said! Amazing cover!

[ya2121]

yer this is sick, a bit more livley but the same sadness.

[Mikefromtrenton]

Absaloutly

[MikeTyeCFL]

AMAZING!!!! is all I can say

[jezx21]

3:12 to the end is the best part...mandolin..banjo...guita­r...harmony....all together just brilliant

[chuchito0]

FUUUCK!

FASTER FASTER FASTER!!

[220hotrod]

pure fucking ingenous

[webdsl]

love it

[Rodrigojohann2]

Now I respect bluegrass!

[metalmattm]

@Rodrigojohann2 Man, bluegrass has always been great... Listen to Ricky Skaggs! That dude shreds..

[deeznutzjrb]

@metalmattm dude bluegrass is bad ass

[metalmattm]

@deeznutzjrb Indeedo!

[GuiltlessGear]

The typeface gradient in the logo is really fucking clever, by the way.

[jhghob]

I am a huuuuuuuge metallica fan-

and that was COOL!

[metallica2014]

EPIC WIN!

[hostel969]

[7080hutchison]

[WilsonGuitar]

PADDLE FASTER!!!

[chuchito0]

@slipknotmaget125

hot that gay as your fag father fuckin you manly mother

[Jonasz14]

awesome intro!

[mrfoofrog]

I have listened to a few songs from the album and they have all been amazing - Fade to Black is no exception. Rock on my long-bearded, finger-picking, foot-stomping brothers.

[sickasylum]

gotta love these guys.... GOT TO... im a 40 year old rocker man.... and this... is some good shit

[Mauroestuvoaqui]

me da risa el banño

hahaha

[Diamondguyrt]

Interesting playing because this song has so many tempo changes and iron horse still had it sound very country......this is a great sound and man all the metallica covers they do sound so sad.....

[huskylax22]

i know i like the twist they put on thier songs alot!

[bsflip777]

hayseed dixie is good too

[zobuka22]

I think Iron Horse's can make the best covers 4ever

[tycoonmusicluver]

metallica has influenced even bluegrass...wow..ill probably find "fade to gospel" next lmfao

[jhfh3112]

Don't tread on the bluegrass, lol

[eiboneibon]

strange mix of uplifting music and tragic lyrics :O

[defyband]

haha no joke

[morganxfreemanxcore]

MY GRASS IS BLUE! DONT TREAD ON ME

[JMOJoker]

I love what they do with kirk's solos it's great ^^ sounds pretty nice!! not that they beat the original but still nice song

[Yodan702]

bluegrass is so fucking hard to play on a guitar. Great cover through it sound kind of weird

[death80]

I love it. Im not one for metallica covers but I love this and Im pretty picky as this is my fav song. fucken eh

[infinitedreamz15]

metallica is fuckin awesum....its influenced so many 2 play sngs of deir on such a wide array of instruments.....its nt jst abt metal...\m/..i knw d horns r nt reqd bcos its nt jst abt metal bt den who cares.....

[suspense0520]

I understand only half of this... But I like the what you mean...

[usctrojans666]

spell check

[jot631]

that is so cool

[bsflip777]

wow thats cool

[degenerate315]

i lol'd

[pkall888]

What?????????????

[fishermanryan]

I'm so getting this album, aswell as their covers of Ozzy.

[343spork]

ROFL

[FabioDaButterMan]

I lol'ed.I like the vocalz <3

[amibidhrohi2006]

A FUCKIN' MAZIN.

[Blothus]

My favourite song of Metallica in Bluesgrass style... amazing :)

[wiiman250]

Metallica is so amazing that they have touched the Bluegrass world. 'Tis why I love them so much, their epicness.

[Nopez20]

That ain't Metallica though it's Fade to Bluegrass a band who made a cover of a Metallica song though but ya i agree the combination of the two are great, Metallica is all over Epic =)

[lustfordeath]

Nopez20, you are an idiot, wiiman250 obviously knows this isn't Metallica, he was saying Metallica is great because they have touched the bluegrass world.

[fishermanryan]

Your stupid that's not even the band name. It's Iron Horse, they're awesome! They also did covers of Ozzy.

[xxTheGuy20xx]

Im down in from kentucky and i hear alot of bluegrass. But i tell you this is the best ive ever heard!

[BigVOLdaddy]

if you dont have this cd, as a true "tallica fan, you MUST get it. this is what a true passion for music as ALL ABOUT! any guitar players ever tried to play a banjo? give it a shot some time. these guys are the shit!

[roninsin]

although this a nice cover, but it doesn't do justice to the actual song. Has a very happy beat to a really emotionally deep song.

[Nopez20]

that's the point of bluegrass you really can't make a banjo sound depressing man =P

[mojo230]

lol so true

[waterboy51]

LOL!

[gr4bong2hitta0]

@Nopez20 i can agree, but this song is all about having that depressing sound to it

[Slamsonite2]

Ha!! they didn't want any part of the final solo I guess.

[sorabulq]

weird.. but it seems no matter in what way or form "Fade to Black" is presented in it always beautiful (at least the beggining)

[cagerat]

1:05 where the fun begins

[metalllicaone]

ha my dad would love this hes such a redneck but this is gr8 lol

[tiagoalvin]

Any kind of tribute, it´s a demonstration of great respect for Metallica history.

And i as Metallica fan, congratulate them!

\m/

[shinwong]

@tiagoalvin yeah i put my hand up

[dpg117]

Dope Sauce!

[SSsoldierHH]

not bad at all

[iBiomega]

What the fuck is this? XD

I don't like it, I know that some people may be likes... but WTF? XDDDDDDDDD

[MeTaLiXe]

LOL it sounds more like from the west haha

[Urbanistyca]

These covers are f***ing awesome!

[xXDEMOLICAXx]

i said this twice and ill probibley say for every video i see of them.....good.........still prefer metallica

[Fivelsvalley]

haha, great =D

[robThorpe]

Epicness!!!

[shaiross]

it's not that great but my friends like just loves it.

i think it's alright

[undericesinger]

Yea I mean if you listen to regular bluegrass more it's easier to love. I mean I love the idea but nothing else matters could have been slowed down like this was. If you wanna hear good softer music check out: Doc watson, Richard Thompson, and the band Brother(as you were) album.

Oh man this is the coolest thing I've ever heard...
