Metallica - Making of - That was just your Life

[metalism2]

lars is very hip

[MsMetallicaFan1996]

@Daver869 I know of it because I have seen it in GH, and also James has mentioned it many times. If you look up "James Hetfield Cliff Burton guitar" in google images you will see why it is called that. It has a cross with wings on the body with the name "Burton" written on it. It also has on the top part of the body the words "To Live is To Die" And on the bottom is has his birth year and death year

[metalmonkey97]

8:31 lars looks like he's having sex and hitting a random china cymbal hitting his wife with his drum sticks

[MsMetallicaFan1996]

4:50 LOOK IN THE BACKGROUND!!! THE CLIFF BURTON MEMORIAL GUITAR!!!! I haven't seen that in forever!!!

[Daver869]

@MsMetallicaFan1996 How do you know its a Burton memorial guitar? Where have you seen it before?

[MsMetallicaFan1996]

@NeAZ HES THE METAL SANTA CLAUSE GUY WE KEEP TALKING ABOUT!!! OMG!!! I thought he would look much different!!!

[ChocolateTundra]

I hope Lars's feet don't stink

[whiplash8585]

lars move you feet of my workstation im tryin to work lol how would like if i put my bare feet on your drumset while your tryin to write a song lol jk

[costa997ohiohi]

hey Lars 5:04 where are the socks ? ...or the shoes :P

[TrappedUnderIceCream]

2:59 Am i the only one who thought kirk was playing what was playing out loud like that.

His fingers were all crazy and its all slow. HAHA.

[brutaltxdeath]

i've been watching these videos and havent seen rick rubin once!

[NeAZ]

@brutaltxdeath He's the beardy man. Sometimes, Trujillo sits next to him on a big sofa.

[rune2222]

@brutaltxdeath No shit. Where the hell was he? I'm producing the next CD.

[Davetts92]

I love the part of the solo where he trills up and down the fretboard.

[jwspitz35]

Kirk looks like Jack Sparrow with his beard

[darkrev94]

bob rock absence in this videos makes me feel a lot better

[coldmetal94]

haha listen to kirk's voice at 1:22 to 1:27

[Neokiddlive]

6:11-6:33 \m/

[Neokiddlive]

Ha, maybe don't choke.

[xFreeVirus]

5:06 lars feet *Not for guys that wanna live*

[nlent10566]

lars=douche

[MindfuckedMetal]

kirk is definitely the king of solo's

[dobby856]

1:49-1:58 legend

[stoltobot]

could have been a lot better song if it wasnt so poorly produced.

[stephanbolton1234]

kirk looks amazing with a beard :O

[diegolas666]

One of the best intro in a metallica record...

[wwegirl9914]

lars plz put some socks on XD

[MrChuckmaia]

James Hetfield is the best!!!

[saulskywalker]

7:25 -8:15 kirk's solo will provoke an orgasm lars

El solo de kirk le provoco un orgasmo a lars XD

[migalpigal]

Hey Portuguese flag next to sanitarium

[CarimboHanky]

people give the credit of production to rick rubin but just need to take a look at this videos to notice that lars is pretty much the mind behind the way the songs are built...

[diegolas666]

Exactly What I see

[luxorcookie]

james hetfield < kirk hammett. Guitar wise. Music talent same.

[harmonicminorshred]

@luxorcookie kirk hammett < me. Guitar wise. Music talent same.

[luxorcookie]

@harmonicminorshred you are calling yourself better than a guitarist in the top 15 of all time?? Thats a little narcacistic in my opinion =/

[harmonicminorshred]

@luxorcookie You better believe it bro. (Did I spell 'believe' right? 'i before e, 'cept after c'...) Anyway.... was gonna say something about suggesting you get a sense of humor, or get better at seeing sarcasm, but I lost it. I am so wasted right now. Happy new year nigga.

[luxorcookie]

@harmonicminorshred Lol dude i saw the sense of humor. I was just pointing that out xD

[fadetoblack145]

what dvd is that off



[majjuus]

I'm not choking at all, i'm ramonesing it man:D

[Pethamx]

@majjuus what does that mean? is it a technique that im not aware of? :O ^^

[majjuus]

@Pethamx That he is ramonesing it! :D

To make the riff sound more like Ramones then Metallica ofc :)

[BigBi90]

James Hetfield > Chuck Norris

[SpartanLaserCanon]

@BigBi90 And Buckethead = God

[jonazz48]

@BigBi90 Not that sad at all BUT TRUE!

[jcrawford21]

James right had is EPIC

[thehornypuppy]

They completely lost their sound...it's not a bad song and it's not a bad album...but where the fuck is the Metallica from Metallica?!

[droga187]

@thehornypuppy they're not the same metalica b'cause they're old now

[LordoftheAxe06]

I like the version of the solo Kirk plays here than the one he does on the album, as in, the first take of it you hear

[LordoftheAxe06]

I like the version of the solo Kirk plays here than the one he does on the album

[FuckYou123412341234]

"This MIGHT be the first song on the record right?"

Robert, "Yeah."

"So in theory, this might be your first entrance on a Metallica record."

Robert thinks, "Oh fuck."

[stonecoldwhat182]

just learned to play the song

that verse riff is fucked up!

James Rulez

[khjr1]

[patanmauro]

[metalMonster101]

and who the fuck say that Metallica arent heavy anymore?

[s2ths2]

@metalMonster101 the pussy people

[blacksabbathfan007]

is that a lemmy poster in the back at 0:10?

[jamesliebone]

at the beginning the lyrics are so much different

[evansa7x]

I love metallica they're my second favorite band on the planet, and i think at 4:07 rob kinda looks like a pregnant lady

[Macki1287]

"im ramonesing it" lol

[MetalChannel]

`tallica 4life

[masteropuppetz66]

this song instantly became one of my favorite Metallica songs... ONE BADASS SONG

[lenmetallica]

Holy shit I wish could down pick that fast

[catzr0ck]

holy shit from 3:57 kirk is doing the same warmup exercises i do!!! shit i guess im on the right track

[Erock09291]

Lars reminds me of Dwight Schrute

[picajoool]

Their first good song after 15 years

[jacksprat1990]

@picajoool Bullshit

[TheMariusDuaas]

@picajoool

Thats Bullshit...

[Rampereven]

3:06 hehe like.. Whatcha say? just doin' my solo 1 sec ..

[smokinpuddlez702]

I hate Lars personality.

[Sto0pidPenguinPro]

Holy shit. and THAT's how Hammett solos are made. Just BAM! in it's epicness and all. god its fucking beautiful.

[espChris93]

@zephranna01 exactly. i guess when people that are this unhappy with their own lives cant find anything to complain about they just make shit up and acuse successful figures of anything from selling out to being racist. i seriously do feel sorry for them because they feel the need to be so negative all the time

[hellspawnwarrior]

yeah ulrich wears his studio-style(he doesn´t wear socks) xD

[evansa7x]

@TheConstruct Rob is Indian and Do you think James hates him?

[ravenshield56]

its great to see what the songs are like before they are released =0

[deerokket]

For anyone who says James Hetfield is a racist I recommend you read Joel McIver's book on Metallica. In it you will find stories from Katon De Pena (of Hirax), who is black, and who back in the early days of Metallica was very good friends with James Hetfield.

[TheNormalguy64]

7:03 Lars does the George Lopez

[motleysixx666]

i like how from 2 :58 to 3:26 kirk is just totally ignoring rick lol.

[ItsDeaThly]

@motleysixx666 Thts not rick rubin, or yes?

[lawdactyl]

Lol 1:40

"I'm Romonesing it man"

[hellspawnwarrior]

@lawdactyl i think he says ramonsing, because he plays the riffs like the ramones (only downstroke)

[lawdactyl]

@hellspawnwarrior I know, I wasjust sayin it cause I thought it was pretty funny

[Julio17523755]

@lawdactyl what is "romonesing" ?? I don't understand, sorry... =(

[lawdactyl]

@Julio17523755 basically, i think James is saying he is just hitting all downstrokes, like The Romones would do.

I just found that funny

[MrCharltube]

these version that he is singing is cooler than the real version

[LatexWizard]

You're a faggot 4 life

[UKRCyanide]

aahah were you looking in the mirror when you posted that comment

[LatexWizard]

Nice one, douchefag.

[cashandguns]

guys this is metallicas studio lars can do whatever the hell he wants

[Ridethelightnin69]

wtf is wit lars going slow mo

[JEKAZOL]

He's probably afraid to tell him. he loves his job.

[TheConstruct]

Yeah that's fucking rude to the engineer or the computer dude he barks instructions to that he does that. That's area is the man's work station.. His desk. Fucking rude and arrogant even if he doesn't know it. I would take Lars aside and tell him to cut that shit out.

[capnkdawg]

@TheConstruct But in the end its Lars' record and should be made to his and the rest of the bands liking

[TheConstruct]

What the hell does that have to do with him being disrespectful by putting his feet up on the console capkdawg?

[capnkdawg]

Well I thought u just meant him checking out wut was going on...yeah that it a little rude, but I don't think it hurts anything

[halonerd04]

lars is in charge of metallica he made metallica lars can do what ever he wants

[TheConstruct]

That dosen't matter halonerd04. It's STILL disrespectful to the guy that works at that desk. How would you like it if your boss did that to you? Are you'd saying you'd let it slide just because that's the man paying you?

If so then you're a loser that can't stand up for yourself and doesn't respect himself.

[laitela01]

I don't think it's such a big deal, since I don't think he ment to disrespect, you're just overreacting a bit. I wouldn't even notice such a trivial matter. He is just relaxing..

[halonerd04]

yah actually i would let it slide i do it all the time and i dont give a shit if he disrespectfull he still awesome

[TheConstruct]

If you don't care if someone's disrespectful to you then you deserve no respect in the first place.

You look like a tool defending him just because of 'who' he is. that's sad.

[capnkdawg]

@TheConstruct Your boss isn't Lars Ulrich...your boss doesn't pay you 10% or wutever of millions of album sales. Its really not that big of a deal

[TheConstruct]

It doesn't matter whether he's my 'boss' or not. It's STILL disrespectful period! You fanboys defending him just because of 'who' he is or how much money he has are losers.

And it's soo easy to see that James is a redneck racist.

[capnkdawg]

@TheConstruct lmao, damn dude, you get offended really easily...and how can you see that James is a redneck racist? Where did you get that idea? And to say I'm defending him is wrong, I just dont get offended cuz a guy relaxes his legs on the side of a table in noones way

[TheConstruct]

@capnkdawg Yo even Axl Rose and ICE T in the early 90's said the same thing about him.

[capnkdawg]

@TheConstruct Ice T is a hipocrit, and Axl Rose is a fuckin whiney douchebag...Ice T is racist

[TheConstruct]

@capnkdawg Oh come on! When have you once seen James even conversing with a dark skinned bloke? and I'm talking about away from the stage. It's so obvious he does not hang with or know any in his personal life.

[capnkdawg]

@TheConstruct He hangs out with Rob Trujillo and Kirk Hammett and is great friends with them, and is a huge fan of Jimi Hendrix...

[TheConstruct]

@capnkdawg They both 'work for him' so that's not what I'm talking about. The only band member he hangs with is Lars away from work. Face it. The guy is into hunting and shooting sport like those red neck militia dudes. He's tattooed like them and looks like them so...

[capnkdawg]

@TheConstruct 'work for him' If he was racist he wouldn't let any colored people in his band at all...especially Kirk for the last 27 years or so...James isn't a racist man, whatever you think about 'redneck' people is pretty skewed. I live in Texas dude, I know redneck people, James just likes outdoor activities and he's a rockstar with tattoos, rednecks get tats of bullhorns, not flames and cards...they wear old dirty jeans and forest camo jackets, not motorhead shirts

[TheConstruct]

@capnkdawg Kirk and Rob are not considered 'Black' per se. Look the dude does not hang or deal with them that's a fact. I dare you to bring up one backstage or similar clip on YT of him conversing or hanging with a Black person.

I dare you.

[majako73]

@TheConstruct

The first lead guitarist in METALLICA was BLACK. The idea that James is racist is totally ridiculous.

[TheConstruct]

@majako73 You have to back that up with a name and pic of the guy otherwise shut up.

And capnkdawg I'm STILL waiting for that clip.

[majako73]

@TheConstruct

Lloyd Grant, douche bag. Google him and suck it.

[espChris93]

@TheConstruct .....so wait you're saying that the fact that you havent seen video evidence of james hetfield "hanging" with black people is cause enough to assume that he is rascist.... the world is more ignorant and pathetic than i thought

[capnkdawg]

@TheConstruct Who cares whether their black or not? Color is color, and thats because usually blacks arent into Metallica enough to join the metclub and get chances to win backstage passes and the ones who are have to deal with a lot of competition from other metclub members who want to meet em...and I dont hang out with blacks and deal with them except at work, doesn't mean I'm racist cuz I'm not

[rocknroolskool]

@capnkdawg Im black and I fucking LOVE metallica!

[capnkdawg]

@rocknroolskool Thats awsome dude...I didn't mean black people just didn't like Metallica, in fact there's a guy who did the unforgiven 3 cover on bass who was black...my point was that normally blacks usually arent into metallica enough to join metclub and get a chance to win backstage passes...and that James Hetfield isn't racist

[rocknroolskool]

@capnkdawg Yeah Did you know that the first metallica guitarist actually wasnt dave mustaine? It was a Black guy named Lloyd Grant. I think he was jamacian, He played ononly one song though that they acually recorded, Hit the lights. James played bass on it becuase at the time they didnt have a bassist and Lloyd played lead. I think there should be a vid of Lloyd at a Metallica concert talking with lars.

[capnkdawg]

@rocknroolskool I knew there was a guy named Lloyd Grant, never knew he was a black dude though...thats a kool interesting fact man. My black buddy Patrick loves to jam Metallica with me...thats a really kool that u like them, it gives idiot racist stereotypers a big middle finger...I hate it when people say I love to jam this song and drive by all the niggers, cuz it makes them look like idiots

[rocknroolskool]

@capnkdawg Yep but how many metallica documentaries are there and i dont think in one they metion him. Thats pretty bad seeing as Hit the lights is the song that made Metallica famous and thats the song he recorded with them and I'm not sure ill have to listen to the demo version and final version again but i think the solos that are on the final version are his.

[capnkdawg]

@rocknroolskool Well, I've always heard from James and Lars that they were the only two that recorded Hit the Lights by themselves the first time...I know Llyod Grant deserves some credit, but its just like Ron McGovney, they just simply didn't do enough in the band

[rocknroolskool]

@capnkdawg I dont think he was on the final recording of it but i think it was on there demo album before they got signed. I dont know why he was replaced though.

[aileanwazere]

so he looks like a red neck?

thats not a judging ignorant thing to say at all...

[espChris93]

@TheConstruct wow... thats the most mindless use of a stereotype ive ever heard.. ever hear the saying dont judge a book by its cover?

[espChris93]

@TheConstruct lars' actions here are in no way disrespectful you need to see the context they are used in. This isnt your office job this is metallica recording an alubm everyone in HQ is friends and has long history with the guys and on top of that its a friendly atmosphere where these guys truly know each other instead of a regular 9-5 job

[themikster5]

wow no one really gives a shit. hes kind of a douche bag and not a very good drummer.

[NeoPanzerth]

lars man.. He puts his bare feet up on the console. dang....

[facebook123123]

hi guy XD

[ppe18]

this song is fucking awesoma |m|

[yabbapcdfg]

haha romaonsing it yes

[AntyMillar]

Calm down mankepierdasss the thing that should not be is heavy but this is way heavier

[Hack3r91]

YEAHH This song is fucking heavy :P

[mankepierdasss]

this song fucking heavy??? have you heard "THE THING THAT SHOULD NOT BE"?

[zulawoo]

mister stinkyfeet drummie

[CaptainFantastik1]

That's Zach Harmon playing guitar, he's been an employee of the band for many many years. He tours with them and seems to be in charge of HQ. I think he kind of oversees everything gear-related.

[torjusb]

@CaptainFantastik1 I want that job!:P

[Kingofleapordgeckos]

uh dumb ass thats kirk hammet

[dercoolemitderGuitar]

no he means this guy at the right...i dont know the right words because im german...its not kirk...

[RevisedTV]

@dercoolemitderGuitar  its robert

[MrAnnaGuitar09]

Lol around 7 minutes theres a guy in the back playing guitar, like who the fuck is he?

[chivas4lif13]

2:02 love james laugh

[MyScaryScrotum]

I hope Slayer releases a Making Of as interesting as this, Greg Fidelman seems like he is an easy guy to work with, I'd be intimidated working with Metallica and Slayer

[ynkysrbest]

da dow dow doow daaaaa...(silence)

[burnonatoaster]

kirks solo at 6:30 is amazing.

[nitrobattery]

really? i'm a HUGE metallica fan but i didn't think kirk had a single memorable solo on this record. he used to write incredibly fitting solos...but on death magnetic it seemed like he didn't even try.

[ptschafer]

@nitrobattery - Huh? Um there were solos in Death Magnetic. You want to hear an album with no solos, listen to St. Anger. If you were a real fan like you claim, you would already know that.

[RandomoVideos]

@nitrobattery

I agree, except I thought All Nightmare Long had a pretty good solo

[NADNERBNAC]

I wanna know what's on the post-it on Lemmy's mouth!

[djvanish]

i like that joker card lyric...

[DamianS807]

What Joker card lyric? Within the song???

[djvanish]

The first part, the lyrics are different

[ThePackNess]

Always pull the joker card, he sing's that in the beginning, it's not in the real song.

[LedZeppelinforever19]

yep they're demos were lyrically a lot different then the final song.

[DeathToTheeSoon]

at 0:32

[burnonatoaster]

they were in the original lyrics. But they were edited

[MetalUpYourAss001]

At 2:55 Kirk is thinking: "Shut The Fuck Up Man. Let Me Practice The Solo"
