that's what i've always loved about metallca i think james and kirk are going to go one direction they go slow out of nowhere and then i think they go fast and go the other way.
Jeez i wanna know what they think when they write there songs.
@x00004 cause it becomes easier to sing? DUH, other than that, what people often overlook.. it gives a much more profound lower end, not that they lack it, but it just gives that little more low attack on the lower E, making the tone heavier. I do it all the time, hell i go as far as C
I again, would like to take the pleasure in giving a big FUCK YOU!!! to all the naysayers, who over the years said Metallica sold out and couldn't play this kind of shit live anymore. You pussies know who you are! Hahahahaha
anyone else think the outro to my apocalypse sounds like the intro to hit the lights? if this is their last album it would be strange that their last song ends like their first song begins. kind of cool actually. the song after hit the lights, the four horseman, is about an apocalypse, so...
The intro sounds like some odd combination of the effects & creepy riffs of something off Ride the Lightning, ...And Justice For All, & the Black Album. Like For Whom the Bell Tolls meets Eye of the Beyolder meets The Unforgiven... >_>
it sorta fits its talkin bout death the intro is like lightning and horror movie sounding guitar its very fitting in my opinion...gives me chills :D P.S im 14 :) OOOOO
I like it. Just like what "nzo41x" said, i feel the same.
But it's not fitting. However, this gives me the impression that they are looking for bizarre and new things in their music. This is great with Metallica.
i think the new intro is cool, but it needs to meld in with the rest of the song better. there needs to be a buildup between it and the song itself, like how battery does a soft intro, a second riff thats pretty much the same thing, but with distortion and drums, then the actual song starts. they should do the same thing with this intro
That intro sounds like something id hear in a japanese movie before a samurai fight or something, how the hell is this suppose to form with my apocalypse?
im new to youtube and i only have 316 subscribers pl make time to watch my videos i make comedy videos if you like them plz subscribe thank you and have a nice day
The intro reminds me of Black Sabbath's Black Sabbath for some reason, don't know why though, maybe because its the sound of rain and sounds similar to the rain in Black Sabbath(song)
fuck men i love metallica but reall love i mean if metallica do a pop song i will love it i'm sure that much i love them but i really dont get this intro is like i dont know but is not for this song. this song is one thing and with that intro is complete another thing. another felling
dude the fact that you say you will like metallica no matter what they do, i.e. pop music, then your motives behind your following lie not with the music, but with the brand and image of metallica, and in my opinion is a little ignorant and shallow. no offence. jamie
This is SOOO fucking bad!!! That intro is so bad! Are people seriously falling for this? I've completely lost faith in Metallica. DM sounds like crap but at least it was fast.... but still total crap. Rrgh, it's so frustrating that people think a Casio keyboard is COOL. LOL!!!
.....I think I've heard this in an elevator somewhere.................P.S. they should have used the piano opening from Unforgiven III to open the album.
Stop your incessant bitching about Metallica. Let's comment on this song, shall we?
I love Death Magnetic. And this is one of my favourites on there. I like the intro. I like that it's free on there website. I enjoyed slotting it in between tracks 09 and 10 on my iPod. They flowed nicely into each other in my car. Life is good.
Good job, Metallica. This is a tight-as-fuck live performance.
then your no fan.. the last four albums have been GREAT, just different.. Load and reload were great for what they are... St. Anger was EPIC, and Death Magnetic... words cant describe.
He blew it out drinking, smoking, and touring around 1992.
He needs to get rid of that damned tape and get a vocal teacher. He sounds good at the start of the set but about 6 songs in he sounds like he's straining to hit even the lowest of notes.
You can be a fan and not like some of thier music. Sure, Load and Reload were great for what they were, but they weren't the thrash that alot of metallica fans wanted and loved, and St. Anger is in no way shape or form epic. Death Magnetic is good, but still it's no Master of Puppets.
so what.. you just wanna keep hearing master of puppets and not let them branch out any more?? St. Anger was their most emotional album, no matter what anyone says.. that album has lyrics in it that when you truely listen, touches the soul. both in good and bad ways. there will never be another, kill em all, Ride, Master, or Justice album.
I don't mind listening to Master of Puppets again and again, i like it that much. In fact, i like all of Metallica's stuff except Load, Reload, and St. Anger. Granted, there are a few songs on each album i don't mind, but in all i don't like them as albums. St. Anger's lyrics and riffs are overly recycled and repeated and aren't nearly as good as the older material. There won't be another Ride the Lightning, but Death Magnetic is at least a step in the direction i was hoping for.
yeah, hes lazy now. listen to him sing seek and destroy from copenhagen 27 july. hes voice is great but he doesnt want to use that good voice too often.
I don't think its laziness... I think it is that he needs to make sure he doesn't mess his voice up... He can do that "old" voice for a bit but he can't keep doing it 'long-term' or he will have serious problems.
Are you retarded? His voice was way better on Puppets up to black, it isn;t even close, soundded perfect fo the music, the growl is now gone, was not good in 99 either.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Great live performance but james voice is gone wow, his puppets voice - up to black was great, but now it sounds like a blues singer trying to sing metallica.
Intro seems sweet, creepy kinda of thing, needs to grow on me abit i think, not convinced it fits with the song totally, I guess they needed an extra intro tape for that slot for change overs, maybe it was in the works but never got polished for the album? who knows, i like it none the less! Great perforance to!
