Metallica - 2 X 4

[WeirdCrazyShortGuy]

This song is actually somewhat bluesy

[deathmaiden5]

metallica actually reminds me korn. cept korn experemented more than metallica. load isnt exactly a metal album. but its still good..

[MissSunnyClaire1]

what is up with the album lulu? whos idea was it?

[AnamariaOcampo99]

HELL YEA!

[TheBashingBro]

WHO THINKS THIS IS BETTER THAN LULU !? HELL I DO ! ! !

[LandynCaissie]

@TheBashingBro lucky for us, lulu is actually a lou album, not officially a metallica album, you want something new from metallica? search up "To hell and back", its unreleased and was supposed to be on death magnetic, srsly, even go look at it on the band site if you think im bullshitting ya

[TheBashingBro]

what is this song about ?

[IHaveAMask]

@TheBashingBro ;)

[dillon123met]

@TheBashingBro it sounds like it's about wife beating...or something :P either way, it's friggin sweet

[TheMetalHeaD256]

@dillon123met actually most Metallica songs having to do with relationships (exception: All Within My Hands) talk about James being the victim... so it's probably about the wife beating him.

[dillon123met]

@TheMetalHeaD256 could be man, what ever it's about, it kick's ass though

[HolyFruityPebbles]

@TheMetalHeaD256 your a fucking idiot

[Theblackmetalist]

Load was a good album reload started off good with fuel then just complete fail after that lol.

[kc0793]

wtf was Lulu

[TheGreatNighthawker]

@kc0793 Good question.

Sellout much?

[macaron3141592653]

Because Metallica became "sellouts", i like thrash metal now. So its not a bad thing (kind of).

[JoshBurlingame]

New Metallica sucks, their sellouts

[mario1136]

@JoshBurlingame GTFO and go listen to Megadeth.

[rocafella142]

You're lyrics are wrong. It's "I can't hear ya time to MEET my lord"....Meaning I'm going to beat the shit out of you with a 2x4 and kill you so you can meet Jesus :)

[Schlachtungen]

What are you morons talking about the 'New Metallica'? Listen to Death Magnetic. That is 'Old Metallica' or what most people would consider Old Metallica. True fans like Metallica for what they are; a kick-ass hard rock/metal band that is still making awesome music. Load and Reload was awesome as well. And they're 'selling out', is them exploring new music from Master of Puppets and And Justice for All. Not everyone wants to play the same damn thing for 30 freakin' years.

[lovindaron4ever]

@Schlachtungen Amen!

[lovindaron4ever]

NOTICE TO ALL WHO TALK CRAP ABOUT METALLICA! I just wanted to say Metallica is all about playing music and having fun. My mama daddy, and everyone in my family have loved Metallica and I had some of the best times of my life with a Metallica song blasting in the background. If you don't like NEW Metallica don't listen to them and don't say they're sellouts. Their music inspired a lot of people to make music. They brought real metal to the scene and they were always different.

[WarPigsLukesWall]

@lovindaron4ever They are sellouts. Now shut up. I still like them though.

[lovindaron4ever]

@WarPigsLukesWall Yea they sellout the whole place when they play a show.

[WarPigsLukesWall]

@lovindaron4ever Haha, true.

[nightruler666]

they should play this song in every menards and home depot

[lexic123451]

love this song :)

[disturbedlink1]

40 people want to talk to my 2 X 4 -_-

[legionslayerbg]

if i have this album why am i listening to it on youtube, oh yeah the comments

[MisterAuthentic]

My favorite song off this album. Love that solo.

[bman32408]

best dancer song ever!

[StupidVideoSeries]

of the new metallica this is deffinantly their best album, and this is the best song off it

[greatxssassin1]

@deelio777 Totally wrong metallica in the 90s sounds totally different than the 80s. Depending on what kind of music you are into, determines what metallica songs you are going to like...

because metallica in the 80s were pure thrash metal...then for some reason when the 90s came, they slowed down their songs and focus on more of the hard rock genre...so two different genres, meaning two different kinds of taste

what you put as a true metallica fan...sounds like a fanboy to me...

[Deadflesh642]

2x4

[mymetallicarulez]

first time hearing this song and i fucking love it and i hate myself for not hearing this song b4

[CitySlickerAussie12]

Sounds like a really bad showtune

[demonix0220]

=8?



[RainingBlood15]

I like Metal up ur ass-Load, and Death magnetic. I GUESS ReLoad is ALRIGHT. ST. anger has some cool intros, but thats about it.

[bob72141]

when i was little i thought this song was about math

[pumishumi]

gotta hand it to lars: he may not be a good drummer, but he can make it fit the song, and after all, he did start metallica in the first place

[Sniperfi513]

Wrong, wrong, wrong! 2X4=METALLICA

[Sniperfi513]

40 people need to eat 2x4s

[Thebaja442]

Two Wheel drive.

Wood 2x4 plank.

2 x4=8

I can do this all day.

[TheLonelyBee]

1989 hetfield: 1:06?

[MORBIDITYBAND]

I guess the album art is where Cannibal Corpse got the idea for the song "I Cum Blood"

[Theblackmetalist]

@MORBIDITYBAND i cum blood was out long before this album lol.

[Formeldehyde]

@MORBIDITYBAND Cannibal Corpse wrote that song in the early 90's, this shit came out much later on

[wingman2k]

3:20 - 4:30 is the greatest guitar solo in rock&roll.

[FUENTESZOVEIDA]

i love this fucking song , i love to box  and just to listen to it all loud when i was punch the bag

[Tap0uTguy]

@FUENTESZOVEIDA ditto bro

[SeeleyBooth1990]

Awesomesauce.

[DiamondsPussyNpearls]

i mean what the DIX is really going on?

[DiamondsPussyNpearls]

hey what DICX !

[mhatkins]

My daughter use to be afraid of this song when she was about 5 years old. She used to say that the 2x4 was coming to get her. We never found out exactly what made her scared of 2x4. We could only guess in her mind, she thought it was a monster. She's 18 now, and is really embarrassed about it! HAHAHA!

[mario1136]

@mhatkins Hahaha. Play this at her wedding

[PanderflyLUV]

@mhatkins Hahaha awww, that's kinda cute.

[rocafella142]

@mhatkins lol wow

[Sciurus]

@mhatkins That's hilarious !

[killyourself2862]

@mhatkins Damn, that makes me feel old. lol

[thrasherlml]

@mhatkins when i was around 3, i was afraid of ronnie haha. at 13, i now say its probably my fav load song haha.

[lindaspartan058]

40 people here dont have dicks

[teenmetalfreak3]

@lindaspartan058 HEY! I don't have a dick xD

[lindaspartan058]

@teenmetalfreak3 lol besides all of the women who are toatally cool. lol

[teenmetalfreak3]

@lindaspartan058 haha thankyou :P

[metali10]

twotimesfour

[net777walker]

hell unleashed when you press play .

[2011Sharkman]

rocks

[FFCYAN]

This song is both kick ass and underrated.

[DementedSeaHorse]

this is one of my least favourite songs of metallica, but it's okay now that I know how to play it

[CelloChick14]

Fave from Load :)

[funkmaster1000]

this one sounds a bit like alice in chains.

[Pahnarama]

@funkmaster1000 I could definitely see AiC doing this song. Very similar.

[leerey14]

i wish my dick was as big a 2x4 :(

[JustWannaFeelGood]

another song off of load that has grown on me

[TexasFury]

We don’t know what possessed Metallica to rip off a show tune, because to us this lumbering riff sounds like it was lifted from “Hey Big Spender.” Hammett struggles through the wooden solo as if he’s using a large plank for a pick, and he’s so obsessed with his wah-wah that he forgets to play anything with his left hand.

[Ryley953]

@TexasFury Thats why it's called 2x4. Because he's using a 2x4 for a pick.

[leerey14]

@TexasFury whos we fag

[TexasFury]

@leerey14 Me, and YOUR MOM!!!!

[leerey14]

@TexasFury searching for a metallica song and then coming to it just to hate on it gets you blocked, have a nice day.

[TexasFury]

@leerey14 Lemme call the WAHMBULANCE for you!

[grizzlies1996]

perfect song for my construction class!

[srvmetallica7d]

who else just noticed how wrong it is that this album is blood and semen pressed between glass and it is also ironically entitled "LOAD"?

great album, btw

[clammax]

@srvmetallica7d holy shit

[crazyhawk59]

@srvmetallica7d Well, duh! The whole point, I'm sure. Peace.

[the1984olympics]

@srvmetallica7d that's not ironic

[singerIDRK]

@srvmetallica7d so is reload ;)

[metallicarulz12345]

@singerIDRK reloads blood and piss XD

[marioandluigi012345]

@srvmetallica7d I thought that was fire. :l

[geekrockrats]

@srvmetallica7d everyone who saw it. sorry,im just being a dick. not trying to start an argument

[crazyhawk59]

@srvmetallica7d It's not irony, the picture and title were chosen for that reason. The irony is that more people don't see it.

[colt950]

@srvmetallica7d I always thought it was a guy who sneezed while he had a nosebleed.

[MegaSony3]

@srvmetallica7d wait is that what that really is??

[JaredAndBoredom]

@MegaSony3 Yeah that's really what it is. Haha from some artist guy (I forgot his name) not from James, Lars, Jason, Or Kirk though! Lol

[DeafDefiler]

@srvmetallica7d

i believe that is a random happenstance. Your princess is in another castle.

[McShaggswell]

@srvmetallica7d That's not irony.

[frankieanime]

@srvmetallica7d Haha, really eh? Hilarious, this and reload are my favs at the moment. Don't get me wrong, I love there old stuff, but it's nice to hear a different Metallica voice

[reelphresh]

@srvmetallica7d Yeah i'm actually suprised walmmart let then sell it in their stores with being a family store and all. I wonder how much they paid him to use it on the album, and why the hell they would pick blood and cow cum. better yet where'd they come across this guy. Oh yeah they were turning gay. But 2x4 is one of the good tracks, not quite up to what they had done but still better then most crap coming out from artist back then.

[ClassicRockfan79]

@srvmetallica7d oh.. shit, yea  thats just wrong. never noticed.

[yyy2255]

I want to smack those 37 beiber lovin' idiots with a 2 x 4! 

[wankfest1970]

2X4 = My penis

[TheSocialVagabond]

37 people were masturbating to the pure win of Metallica that they accidentally clicked the dislike button.

[G4TVFANATIC]

2 x 4= One pure badass band whose worst songs are better than every band put together.

[izzypop100]

I think Load fuckin' rules!!!! I used to say they sold out when I was younger, but they just changed their sound. Its a wicked hard rock, drinking album..  Its just a more rock n roll approach instead of metal. I love it

[lowercase18]

@izzypop100 thats exactly what i think. i listen to it, and automatically i see poeple in a bar or a tavern or something like that listening to it.......... load, reload good metallica albums, just not metal its its entirety

[KingofFunk412]

I'm not a big Metallica fan, but I love the Load and Reload albums. I know thats the opposite of what most people think, but fuck it.

[BlueLightning48]

Load & ReLoad are such underrated albums! i even know people who haven't heard a single song on either one because they were told they sucked....sure it's not how tey used to be, but it's different, wich is good. either that, or make a bunch of similar sounding songs for years and years

[trevortes]

@BlueLightning48  been a metallica fan for years reload is definately not as good to me as load, aside from epic fuel and the memory remains

[Nickhead87]

Also, what I was trying to say, it's alright to branch out and mature in music, as everyone does in life. I got tired of only liking metal music or only liking Metallica's first 5 albums. And I'm not afraid to say, while I listen to Metallica, I'll have Rush right behind it and then Prince, Journey, Elton John, etc. Anything wrong with that?

[crazyhawk59]

@Nickhead87 Not at all, I'm with you, brother.  I might have to draw the line when it comes to Prince, but the whole idea behind your comment is that we all like different shit, right? While we all love Metal and especially, Metallica. I agree with you about Slayer. One of the things I have always loved about Metallica is that no two albums are alike. While Load/Reload are most closely related, they are different. Merry Metal Christmas. Peace.

[Nickhead87]

@crazyhawk59

Yeah, Prince would be one of my guilty pleasures, lol. But I honestly do like a good handful of his songs. Sometimes I LMAO to the songs cuz they're kinda silly. Anyway, nice talking with you. Have a good one.

[crazyhawk59]

@Nickhead87 You know, I have been thinking about it and there are2 or 3 Prince songs I really like. I guess, I don't like watching him perform. I always say(in my own little brain) that I don't like him, until I hear a song on the radio. So, I guess I would have to consider him my guilty pleasure, also. Metallica and metal are my first love. Just rediscovered Testament and am enjoying very much. I love Chuck Billy's voice. See you on the flip and Peace.

[Nickhead87]

Energizer...

The reply button isn't working for me. Anyway, so I guess that my comment makes me a Metallica fanboy? I don't find them generic at all. In fact, I think I enjoy Metallica's music from Load and so on more than I ever did because it's different than what they used to play. And, as always, I love everything from Kill Em All to the Black Album. Not every single song, but most. But look at Slayer... they sound the same on every record. It gets old after a while.

[TVBeastly]

2 / 4 = 1 / 2

I win!

[MMAGillz]

this is what i walk out to before a fight

[spinspinspin12]

36 ppl need to be hit by a... you know, a 2X4!!!!

[CrazyB8366]

With flesh hangin nails......lol....yea I'd laugh..

[budd50069]

@spinspinspin12

More then 36 ppl need to get hit with a 2x4, its moe like every person on this god forsacken planet needs to get hit...

[lartti83]

yes load is indeed a masterpiece, and so is reload, idont get people who say these are metallicas worst albums

[crazywanderinghost]

I got a solution to all these trolls. Just flag and keep on headbanging!

[AtomHeartGuy]

Two2 X 4Four = My xbox live gamertag

[GugoBYW]

LOAD= Masterpiece ^_^

[Contreras1991]

New One! xD i remeber when james said that to play this song in 1995

[Wyndrax]

Gay, horrible, not metal, you're all idiots.

[garranto]

@Wyndrax pathetic, loser, too much spare time. hows that? your the bigger idiot here. why waste your time to comment on something u hate? eh? nobody cares what you have to say unless its something good or insightful. that's how it is nowadays. you should probably go skip along and get to school mate...

[Wyndrax]

@garranto No, not really.

[14PIPS]

@Wyndrax if you don't like, don't comment. go away!

[grindmaggots666]

@Wyndrax you must have a sad life, got nothing better to do than troll on bands on youtube. you sir, are the idiot here, if you you don`t like it why even visit the video? and it`s indeed not metal, more like hardrock, as metallica went expremential with this album. now screw yourself.

[MetaITV]

you guys are missing out, you have to be high off your ass to listen to this album. it will all make sense.

[as6931]

This sounds like a song a dude would get a lap dance to!

[Quincy2guns]

This whole album had a blues feel to it, and this song just epitomizes it. Fuckin love this song...

[headbanner666]

=8 lol

[spinspinspin12]

I LOVE THE BEAT TO THIS SONG SOOOOO MUCH

[thomascoh]

@gunsNrosesfan97 No, my girlfriend is fond of Metallica, too ^^

And so do I ..

[zjfox43]

@thomascoh My girl is a Metal fan, too. She likes Metallica. Nothing Else Matters is our song, too. Playing Metallica at a wedding, that is how ours will be. I can see it now.

[Wyndrax]

@zjfox43 If you really think Metallica are a metal band anymore, I have some bad news for you, son.

[zjfox43]

@Wyndrax Music is what I like, all kinds as long as I can connect with it. We have out favorite bands and Metallica is one of mine, the other would be Oomph which is a German band that is a lot like Metallica. (Started with techno with guitars and moved to rock and metal but still has techno) But, my point, it is about the music, not the kind of music. It is still heavy music when they go heavy, and it is still soft when needed. That is what music is about. Feeling, that is what it is about.

[Wyndrax]

@zjfox43 Oomph? Metal?

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH­AHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Also, you don't seem to grasp what Metallica were when they still were a metal band.

[17jtk]

@zjfox43 I love metallica, but I wouldn't play them at my wedding. Eh, to each his own I guess. Congrats.

[ghostluver711]

@zjfox43 dude im playin metallica at my wedding

[FallingV]

@zjfox43 Man I don't know you but I kinda wanna be at that wedding haha.

[lCREEPINGDEATH1]

@zjfox43 man i gotta get me a girl like that. most people dont understand what metallica is all about, and even more girls just dont care.

[grimmenigma949]

@zjfox43 that song saved my moms life, she had a shotty in her hand,but changed her mined after hearing thats song

[Zorisx]

@zjfox43 how about having them play at your wedding? :P

[TheLaMoFo]

@zjfox43 thats exactly how me and my girlfriend had it planned out man! then she broke up with me, i hope you have better luck bro, rock on \m/

[SavageSlayerX]

@zjfox43 nothing else matters is okey, it's just a little to slow for me :D

[TheLittleVirus]

@gunsNrosesfan97 Lol, nopes, you've got one right here! :D And if you miss talking to other Metallica girls you should check out Metallichicks(dot)com and the forum :D

There are a lot of us out there, don't worry!

[vgking7]

@gunsNrosesfan97 No. My girlfriend likes Metallica and metal. Thank god your not the only one!

[f4llen4]

@gunsNrosesfan97 no, thank god about that.

[graziek]

it's so pop this album

[BrodinBrothers22]

@graziek compared to what?

[14PIPS]

am i the only girl who likes metallica ? seriously...thats...shocking..­. :|

[A7X4LIFE234]

@14PIPS well...u and my Girlfriend :) but u know...ure right, not many girls like metallica...

[shashoni109]

@14PIPS My sister's okay with the band, but prefers foreign music for whatever reason.

[marianelly2010]

LA VERDAD LA METALLICA ES LO MEJOR



[ntrnate]

Metallica is the Chuck Norris of Metal!

[SikyGdMetallica]

I don´t think this song talks about a fight... is about sex xD

[ciaranc93]

= 8

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

DECEMBER 2004 GUITAR WORLD "100 Worst Guitar Riffs, Licks & Solos of All Time" #20; We dont know what posessed Metallica to rip off a show tune, because to us this lumbering riff sounds like it was lifted from "Hey Big Spender". Hammett struggles through the wooden solo as if he's using a large plank for a pick, & he is so obsessed with his wah-wah that he forgets to play anything with his left hand.

[fangopango]

@TEMPmichaelhansen point is what?

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

@fangopango

it was in the magazine so I decided to post it.

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

@fangopango i have been doing this elsewhere with the other songs listed.

[fangopango]

@TEMPmichaelhansen ok

well it kinda sucks its in a magazine

its quite good (IMO)

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

@fangopango

some of them i agree with some i dont

but sometimes you read, then listen, and you say "They are right"

but I swear the "BIG SPENDER" was another song!!!

@TEMPmichaelhansen yeah maybe

but i listen to it and i hear metallica

lol
