Metallica - Am I Evil? (Demo)

This is the "Am I Evil?" demo from Metallica's debut album "Kill Em All"

On the 11th track of Kill Em All, Metallica covered the song "Am I Evil?" by British heavy metal band Diamond Head. This song first appeared on Diamond Head's Lightning to the Nations album. Metallica has made the song recognizable to metal fans today when playing it live many times. The song was part of Metallica's Creeping Death cassette single and on some pressings of the Kill 'Em All album. The song appeared again in 1998 on Metallica's Garage Inc. anthology of covers, as well as on Disc 3 of the Live Shit: Binge & Purge boxed set.

@xs1096 dude everybody makes mistakes like kirk overusing his wah pedal

[MetallicaFREAK236]

@JosephCarmine sure he is

[SorgensKammer1987]

@Flipper79able Nope, it's Metallica..This is what they sounded like Before Kill 'em All

[SorgensKammer1987]

@RideTheLightning728 no, it's not. this was a PRE-kill em all demo.

The 1988 Elektra reissue version was recorded professionally in the studio in 1984.

This was recorded on a cassette player..I'm pretty sure this was from the 82' Ron McGovney Garage Demo, but I could be wrong. it was from that era.
