  • This video has been well overdue. I have heard a lot of people say that because of the production on And Justice For All, they don't like it. I think looking past the production and really hearing the level of skill and talent that was put into it, you can really see how this album is just as good as their first 3.
    Here is my reaction to hearing Metallica - ...And Justice For All for the first time. I hope you enjoy it!

      I could not agree more. an absolute fuckin masterpiece.
      Just a bit of history on these guys. The early lineup had Dave Mustaine (megadeth) as a second guitar. He was essentially kicked out for drugs/alcohol. He went on to form Megadeth. Up until the Master of Puppets album their bass player was the legendary Cliff Burton. But while on a tour in europe, the bus hit ice, and rolled. Throwing Cliff out the window and crushed/killed under the weight of the bus. He was replace with Jason Newstead. Years later, he was replaced by Robert Trujillo.

    This is personally my favorite Metallica album. IDGAF what others say, I was 16 when this came out and it blew my mind...it's definitely their angriest album. First album after Cliff died, James's anger is showing through, Lars tries to show how good of a drummer he can be because his father criticized his playing on earlier albums, this is just Metallica at their best. Nothing after this compares to the aggression and complexity.

I applaud your choice of journeying into the metal genre and I am certain that you are now a fan of this music that I have loved since it was created. I remember when all of these albums first appeared back when I was in my early 20's. Thrash metal really started with Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, and others. I'm glad you are able to experience this music and see how technical and intricate it is. Greetings from Royal AR. 👍🇺🇸

    The whole album is deep, technical, hard, tight and intense. The songs are longer and progressive. Yes, the production is different (you'll read the story) but there are many treasures in this record. Hetfields riffs are incredible throughout. Hope you listen to 'One' at some point. Also, I think the lyrics are Hetfields best.
    Enjoy 🤘
    (And this album is MUCH heavier than anything they had done up until this point. They did it very deliberately)
    There is also a version with proper bass recorded - ...And Justice for Jason - enjoy... 👇

I hate to say it, no longer my genre. I dont know what they are considered now. They're so big now they could write poop on a cardboard box and people would love it. IMHO. Not hating, not even upset. They gave me wonderfull teenage years. Anything after the black album just isn't for me. Much love from Texas.💚

      @@BigBbadx4 Well said. I think every song of theirs before the black album defined thrash metal. I can count on one hand how many after AJFA are even close to this caliber, but I only heard what others played because I never bought another album of theirs after black. I didn't hear the story about James and Lars mixing Jason's bass way down until many years later but that's probably why this album hit me so differently from their previous ones.

    As someone that was around from the beginning of Metallica I have to say this is my favorite album of theirs.. the weird production actually gave it a very unique sound. The guitar tones are perfect, and the riffs are heavy AF. Anyone saying this isn't a heavy album is insane! I know Lars gets stick but I love his drumming on this album. This mix really added some depth to the bass drums.. enjoyed that. I am going to have to check out a few alternative mixes of this album.

    Album is perfect.

    • @dunkingdom1774
      @dunkingdom1774 3 місяці тому

      ​@@haxan6663 Actually Load is my favorite Metallica album. And I have a specific reason for that is: I can't listen 2 or 3 songs in a row that are in the same album. For example, And Justice For All song is nearly 10 minutes. If I play 1 more song from AJFA it will be 15 minutes of same kind of guitar tones, same kind of vocals and same kind of riffs. I don't like it, I don't want it. For the most part I just listen songs mixed from different albums. One from Master, one from Ride, one from justice, one from KEA, one from the Black. After 2 songs in a row that are in the same album is just unlistenable to me. Except for Load. I can listen the album Load in one shot. Probably its because the sound quality in Load is the best and for my taste. Before Load, vocals are just too low in the songs. One other thing is that before Load, the most important thing is the guitars not vocals. Guitars and riff are there and also there are some vocals too. But there is even instrumentals. So vocals are actually not the point. In Load guitars come to boost the vocals. James' actually singing well and beautiful. I like it better.
      I like ReLoad too but not as Load. In ReLoad things that I love in Load is there again but songs, I don't find them that much interesting and beautiful.
      I like the the thing that St. Anger is doing but I just hated the way it sounds. I like only 3 songs from St. Anger.

      The thing that is really unfortunate about AJFA is that this stuff was when Metallica started dabbling more with classical arrangement and prog rock ideas which was absolutely 10000000% Cliff's wheelhouse. This album is a certified classic. Had Cliff been on this one, it would have been considered by many to be the greatest metal album of all time. We can only imagine the bass parts he would have played on this and how REFINED it would have sounded as a result

    Great album! 10/10
    Death Magnetic is an insanely good album and produced by Rick Rubin, same guy who produced early Slayer stuff.

    Title track is one of my least favorites on this album (not that it's bad). I think you'll prefer Harvester of Sorrow or Shortest Straw over this one

      You think? My opinion is those you mentioned are "worse" than the title track. They're all good though but title track, blackened and frayed ends of sanity are my favourites!

      To me Harvester of Sorrow and Eye of the Beholder could have been removed completely from the album. In my ears very boring songs.

    I remember seeing the "And Justice For All" tour live back in 88 or 89(I think) with my brother and a friend. I think we were 13 or 14, no adult supervision needed back then lol. First and best concert I've ever seen! Good to see the younger generation appreciating it still these days.

    AJFA is a amazing album, so much anger in that album from the passing of Cliff. The lack of bass from Jason is the only thing missing. You must do Harvester of Sorrow next....sooooo fucking heavy!!!!

      I would say, the absence of low frequencies on the bass, because the bass is actually audible, but all the low frequencies are on the guitars.

    I would listen to this on my Sony Walkman before going to sleep many nights in 1989/90. Still listening to it today. I hope these songs last forever. I sometimes fantasize about what it would be like to find this album or metal in general, really but especially an album like AJFA 100, 400, 1000, 4000 years from now. I would put on a hazmat suit and brave fallout if I knew where to find this album.

    I love how the intro to this is quite stiff and precise, then when the vocals start, it has swing type groove. It is a really fun song to play on guitar. Maybe a sign of things that were to come in later albums?

    This was the 1st Metallica song/album I had ever heard, and is still my favorite today. Can remember riding around with my step bro in his old Camero, he always had metal playing but this blew my 12 year old mind at the time. He saw how much I liked it and bought me everything from Kill em All to this (which had just released at the time) on tape.

  • @XXjg_

    What makes this album so unique sonically is it’s dryness; No reverb (except a bit in vocals) so it sounds tight and right next to you. The dryness makes the album colder, mechanically aggressive, like an angry machine. This is their most progressive record with lots of time signature changes and neo-classical influences. It’s heady, with lots of math.
    The lyrics and theme, just like previous albums, are intelligently beautiful and critical of society and the human condition. This record cemented Hetfield as one of the greatest metal singers and lyricists, as well as rhythm guitarists and master of riff writing. The album is drum forward, with famously clicky bass drums. Lots of extra-clicky bass drums became common in metal after this record. So intimate is the drum sound that It feels like you’re sitting at the drum kit.
    Then of course there is the infamous low-in-the-mix bass guitar that will be critiqued forever. With Jason Newstead on bass, this is the first record without Cliff Burton, RIP (though he has some songwriting credits on it). But the signature sound of this record gives it a strong, surgically-sharp identity. Some consider this the band’s last great record, or at least its last Thrash record, with much of what came after (Sandman forging that new path) being more hard rock than metal. Maybe still metal, but no longer what is defined as extreme-metal, which thrash falls under as it’s the first tier of extreme-metal.
    In ‘89 after the release of Justice the Grammy’s created a hard rock/metal category and the band was nominated, infamously losing to Jethro Tull. That night, Metallica were the first metal band to ever perform at the Grammy’s playing a shortened version of One.
