    Last time a Metallica song grabbed me like this one, was Enter Sandman way back when it came out in 1991! Banger song. James' vocals are the best I've heard since probably forever...Wow, just wow! Lars brought his A-game, Kirk's solo is unlike anything he's done before and Rob is frigging solid in keeping the rhythm. Killer song and Welcome back boys, welcome back!

    That chorus is such an earworm. James has sounded amazing live this past year and a half or so. I think it's the best he's sounded with some of the sung notes he didn't used to quite hit. That kinda carries over here with this new track. The part where he sings "aEterna" and he climbs the ladder with the note is beyond hooky and badass.

  • @andysalter7192
    @andysalter7192 Рік тому +7

    The concept of the album is about the first 18 years of one's life hence the title of the album so I expect it to be somewhat of a throw back to what inspired them as kids.

      A lifetime of hope / light makes sense given the concept.
      And then you become an adult and see, the way Metallica did when they hit their 20s (some of them, years into their career already), that life can be pretty shit.
      Capturing the magic of one's youth while writing with the experience they've accumulated is a pretty smart choice.

    Personally, I liked Death Magnetic a lot more than Hardwired. This new track is very reminescent of the earlier Metallica and it's pretty good. I always like Metalliica the most when they have switch-ups in their songs but as a straight up metal song, this was good.

  • @ghostrider2664
    @ghostrider2664 Рік тому +2

    Hey guys, I wonder if this song is a tribute to Diamondhead? The lyrics obviously reference a live show experience, the pace and chord progression is very reminiscent of Diamondhead, and "lightning the nation" is an unmistakable akble Diamondhead reference.
    Maybe this album is going to be tracks based heavily on their early influences, in order to turn on younger generations to the NWOBHM the band grew up on. This approach would explain the cover art almost completely as well.

    Fun fact:
    Lux Aeterna can be translated as either Light Eternal / Eternal Light OR A Lifetime of Light.
    So that's definitely an interesting choice of song title. Possibly a return to a more open, thrashy Metallica with those huge drums and a more interesting chord progression.
    I don't think the band will do an entire album from one perspective again, and I think that's the right choice to make.

    My first reaction was like that sound like 80th punk rock mixed with trash and since I recently replayed Marvels Guardians of the Galaxy in PS5 I have punk rock fresh in my mind.
    But they really dropped a bomb with it and it being a song on a new ablbum is great because I actually just thought they released a single since I wouldn't have been surprised if Hardwired…to Self-Destruct (can't believe it's already 6 years) would be their last album.

    It's funny that "long time" fans are the ones who always shit on them instead of being the more staunch supporters.
    Here's the thing: when you essentially perfected thrash, there's really no other reason to keep doing it. That's what they did in the 80s.
    If the band had stayed a little closer to TBA style of heavy metal for the Loads I dont think there would have been such a division. The change from TBA to Load was far greater than the one from AJFA to TBA. That being said if you appreciate the band and you grow with them then the music becomes that much meaningful.
    The thrash fans that cant let go are the ones who refuse to grow up. They're letting time pass by meanwhile the world left them behind.
    One thing they can hang their hat on: thrash didnt become mainstream, only Metallica did. They tried to bring everyone with them but some bands refused to join the ride.
