Metallica - Blackened alternative Intro

[k4den66]

I prefer this version, but it doesn't really fit with the song...

[kanalR3DX]

why james hetfield dont put this intro that created jason newsted? is a better intro that the intro of blakened.

[MattBeardyKH202]

I wish i lived in the 80s..........don't know a lot of 15 year old metallica fans....

[AFNYOAQIS]

@MattBeardyKH202 I'm fifteen and I like Metallica, Megadeth, Motorhead, Nuclear Assault, Blind Illusion, Metal Church, etc.

[MattBeardyKH202]

@AFNYOAQIS probably....but i dont know you....

[AFNYOAQIS]

@MattBeardyKH202 Well i don't know you. so ha! we're even!

[Zopetzo]

Okey thats it, Im gonna train this Intro with guitar now matter how i suck at it.. THIS IS SOOOOO COOOOL! \../

[redwing104]

@Zopetzo It isnt too hard don't worry :)

[rkid13]

Fucking EPIC!

[chilldudemanguy]

this sounds more awesome than what they used.

[slantyrock]

hetfield is a fucking amazing composer. and the start of to live is to die, what an amazing acoustic player he is too.

[brood700]

I love both equally...but I have to say the orginal reversed way is alot more epic sounding, but def should of ended the song with this version. I would of shit my pants if they did that

[nicopanadero123]

I LOVE IT

[bassiFTW]

bob helped them on black album.. it sold 14 milion copies. i think thats pretty good. so stop hating mofos.

[XXXkLeCiIj69XXX]

check out my version with the full song!

[gentao88]

OMG metallica are fucking genius

[kathikius]

:P the mediafire file is gone...

[MetallicaMan821]

and personally all of you who r sayin Metallica is dicks... get the fuck over it and enjoy the music... everyone in the world can be a dick

[MetallicaMan821]

They should have used this intro to begin with... i think its way better

[ripper8filip]

lol nice Clip like it ;-)

real and reverse Intro Fusion :P

ROCK ON !!!

[kirk45hammett]

i like the first one the best

[MrMrkfuk]

this IS the first one XD

[without274]

Both sounds awsome, it`s very interesting to see how Metallica can play a song and even backwars sound really good. Long live to Metallica!!!!

[megadethendgame]

thats because this was the original recording

[EnterJoshman]

I like the original better than the one on And Justice. But they're both awesome

[bobsmash213]

I can't believe you're all still discussing the bass in Justice! It was intentionally mixed out to fuck with Jason. It's the worst 20 year running gaga ever, and we fans deserve to hear Justice remixed.

[omglolbbqftw]

Yes, thanks for posting.

[larzblast]

It was? I had no idea Metallica were such dicks since then! I thought they became dicks after the black album?

[bobsmash213]

Yep...they did it to fuck with Jason. The only thing that kept him with that band so long was the fans and the money. It's so funny that while he was in the band all we ever heard about was Cliff, and now that he's gone everyone finally sees how badass he was and how much that band screwed him.

[Zigfield7]

Hey, you guys know this is just the intro plaied backwars right? lol check it out, i am not lying.

[StevieMC13]

they should take one as intro and the another one as the outro

[dimitrisagreborn]

they should put both versions as an intro and outro to the song. it would make sense even if they used one as the record intro and one as its outro!

[carrionrock]

Actually...this is how it was meant to be. This is how they played it and then Bob cock reversed it and made it sound better I guess

[Slashfan90210]

Bob Rock didn't do ...And Justice for All, it was Flemming Rasmussen

[CliffDecadence]

Bob Rock? ...And Justice For All was produced by Flemming Rasmussen, who did a BETTER work than Bob Rock.

[iLikechevelle]

bass....*cough* in-audible *cough*.

[CliffDecadence]

You are talking about Justice, but: What about Master Of Puppets?

[iLikechevelle]

yeah you could hear it in most songs, especially puppets, but like in battery it got squashed out but like in Orion DUH of couse and Sanitarium you could hear it pretty good. Especially in the verses.

[CliffDecadence]

In Battery I can hear it pretty good. The bass is audible in all the songs, if you pay attention, in Justice you must burn your brain to hear the bass, is impossible.

[iLikechevelle]

Yeah Justice you can barely hear it the shortest straw, a little bit in One, and you can hear it during James' solo in To Live is To Die.

[opensandwich]

i miss cliff... : (

[SuperMetalHead13]

I hate Bob. He screwed with their heads. Who wants someone who just helped produced a Bon Jovi crap record, to produce a Metallica album?!

[larzblast]

As much as I hate Bob too, Metallica could've just done their thing and ignored some (or all) of Bob's ideas. It's more Metallica's fault than Bob's.

[Mozillas]

metallica have the best intro songs ever

[hesher8]

they should have done it like that have both cuz both are fucking amazing

[elmingodotcom]

fucking epic intro, insuperable i pissed me when i heard it first time

[siisihqdaa]

the orginal blackend intro is much cooler

[RidetheHorsemen]

LOL silly it is the orginal intro they play it the way the first one is and put it through a foot pedal that plays it backwards and thats the studio version.

[siisihqdaa]

no, they change it in studio, dont say cuz i did that on my guitar and computer,no pedals, and by "the orginal" i mean the album version

[jbailey598]

No he's right.. The first part of this video is the original guitar riff they played.. and they played it back backward when they put it on the beginning of the song. Hardly anyone knows that little snippet of info. But... ya learn somethin new everyday.

[siisihqdaa]

they dont play it backwards, they reverse it with computersoftware or whatewer they are mixing their songs

[jbailey598]

I didn't mean that they physically PLAY it backward, I meant what you just said.. .when they put it on the song through whatever equipment they use, they reversed it......

[Mapetitmort]

The original intro is one of the most EPIC things i've heard .

[Necrommancer]

hey thx alot for sharing the mp3, cheers!

thats a realy cool piece of music there, thx for posting, .. fuck yeah!

[m3ta1h3ad145218]

thats so sick! i didnt know they reversed the intro like that

[skate4life2022]

thanks for the link. cheers!

[kennymustdie29]

holy shit this rocks...they should re-release it like this with the backwards intro 1st then the real intro then the song.

[notylek]

It's so freaking cool, i've got this on my phone and i always got it on the loop for like 10 minutes...

[dontobeay]

rocknuno is right, its backwards

[BigBoss1292]

your link doesnt work anymore

[perkristian876]

New link up, should work.

[BigBoss1292]

thanks

[scorz77]

Where can I find tabs for both of these versions?

[rocknuno]

Hey, dude this is the intro backwards. :D So you can get the original one and try to learn it backwards. Hehe

[rocknuno]

The original starts at around 31 sec. If you want the tabs you should download GuitarPro.

[greatezalor]

how can i get this song on mp3 then i want it soo badly!

[perkristian876]

Its under "info" on this video.

[greatezalor]

sorry but the link dosent work...

[greatezalor]

fucken sick kick ass!!

[flamelance50166]

god i wish i was in the 80s 2 i the only headbanger in my grade (probly cause im 12) but the 2 years ive known metallica my life attidtude and everything has literally changed im a whole new persong thank you metallica

RIP cliff

[flamelance50166]

damn pop and rap took over this age if =i every somehow get i nto a famous band (guitarist) ill make sure metal is reborn

(come on it could happen)

[perkristian876]

The popularity of different music styles move in wavelengts. Some claim that we we're at the bottom in the beginning of the 21th century and that we are moving up. Metal probably won't see that glorious time it had in the eighties again, but it will come close as more and more bands now progress. Cheers!

[Agis12]

If the nowadays offsprings of bands like metallica are so good as metallica etc, then a new 80' and 90's(metallica belong to 90's, not to 80's as some wrongly believe), is coming.

I mean the music chain went like:

Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath etc -> Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer etc -> ?!?!?(except some minorities)

[affan101]

i like rap n pop n all that but i like the sound of guitar n drums so its not like just cuz i like rap im a ghetto fag who doesnt like rock... or some metal

[perkristian876]

hm, story seems familiar. I was thirteen at the time when i first got the black album. It was like drugs from there. I explored any metal sound throught the years until i found my spot in the eighties classic Heavy/thrash Metal. Cheers!

[flamelance50166]

its exactly how it happended to me (exept i was 10)

[nbcviper]

@perkristian876 Haha! Same here, Sad but true hit me first. Then Load and Reload came out and I didn't mind those albums. About 4-5 years ago I had a Megadeth phase and I discovered Kill 'Em All. Then thrash all the way, these guys changed my life! Also dumped a shitload of money into guitar.

[rmhm73]

nnnnnnnnn na na na, na na na na na na na na

[titoZzzz2]

sick

[lonesoldier91]

hey, this is a good information, you can give me the song when you finish the job. Cya

[lonesoldier91]

can you give me all song with this intro?

[Veroos]

it's just intro. This is original intro from Blackened

[larsulrich221]

hey, im working on one right now. i put one up, but its got bad quality, if u wanna check it out.

[larsulrich221]

the other one im working on will have better quality.

[metallica1020]

it is the original but they reversed it when they put it on the album

[rmhm73]

1 of the greatest intro's I remember when it came out back in 88' I was in high school, it blew me away

[docrock80]

ahh dude... I wish I grew up during the time "... and Justice For All" came out. Mustve been an amazing time for metal fans.

[rmhm73]

docrock80 it was an amazing time man, my high school was all headbangers, it was great!!!! glad 2 see a younger generation into this music, thrash 4-eva bro!

[docrock80]

hell yeah! theres a few 'bangers at my school who I hang around with, so not all is hopeless in this age where it's popular to like rap and radio-music. rock on \m/ and check out my metallica video too!

[EricDxSIN]

So do I. There are 5 kids in my school that like metallica including me.

[ghostkilla622]

yesss me too!! ive been listening to metallica since i was 2 and im 13...METAL HEAD 11 YEARS

[dvlORangl]

Someone please post To Live is To Die backwards!!!!!

[joester567]

and i thought the the forwards one was awsome

i got the chills

[jg928]

this intro is just pure genius

[ignyte]

where can i get this...and some titles???? anyone plssssss....

[perkristian876]

get this intro on the link in the video info. wat you mean about titles?

[Jdogg5455]

You got to buy sony acid pro version. it runs about $300 so it is very worth it.

[moshu22]

man this fucks everything is just genius....i have goose-bumbs when i listen to it:))

[chuckawobbly]

...This isn't on my AJFA album? Where was this lifted from?

[FE7588]

its the blackened intro played how it should be. the version on thr album is reversed.

[FFXGuitar]

Would have been much better like this...like an open book, reading one way, the other, then onto the next page.

[iajua]

Is the same intro, is just in reverse

[trojandynasty85]

well this explains why they don't play EITHER ONE intro while live; they let a recorded version play before the song starts

[bethshair]

wow, going from the forwards to backwards thing is awesome!!!

[Utorak007]

Hmmm...

[EdRulez2306]

o damn both sounds fuckin cool... i think the best way, was probably to play it forward and then backwarsd like in this video xD

[mayganey]

it's much more melodic.hope this was on the album

[Black7Ninja]

I wasnt able to download it either :( Do u have to subscribe to the page the link takes u to to get it?

[krakhaid]

What I do when i play the song, is I play the backwards version(as heard on the album), the song, and then instead of just ending it like on the album, I play the non backwards version to fade out. It sounds really cool!

[Sawyed]

beautiful musical communion

[zcristian11]

OMFG SO GOOD METALLICA RULZ

[BenHur1974]

jep...great...played forwared, than backward...an i love it^^

[ejvaldes]

[tasalexis]

Oh MY GOD.I've been searching for those two intros together mixed.Hail Blackened.Hail to the melodies of MetallicA_!!!1000000stars

[AndJustice4All68]

its the intro played forwards instead of backwards

[faceheadman]

i tryed downloading it and it wouldnt work :(

[perkristian876]

New link temporarily up!

[firstofficer]

[faceheadman]
