"Fuck off, please"© James, 2017
Also "fuckin' metal"
LITHIUM , отъебись, пожалуйста)
LITHIUM , я всего лишь перевел фразу "Fuck off, please ". Это не оскорбление, извини, если обидел.
Actually this was made and said in 2016 lol
At least he said "please."
James - writes,
Lars - arranges,
Rob - doodles here and there,
Kirk - occasionally comes to see what's going on and to learn new stuff
Kirk sucks
Max Komarov sad but true, it seems
Accurate.
Kirk wrote enter the sandman...
He lost his phone.
I like that James even records his vocals with his guitar in hand.
@Cameron Grant yeah the part where he did the vocals without his guitar his hands were still going like the expected a guitar to be there
Have you seen James singing without a guitar? He doesn't know what to do with his hands hahaha
@@BATTIS94 like that video of Iron Maiden trolling a tv show that wouldn't let them perform it live and when Adrian Smith was at the mic he looked so ackward with his hands
yeah I do the same when I record vocals, my vocals are not the same without me having my guitar on me
Cameron Grant Unforgiven III
the part where james is talking about the vocals dropping out and the listener still hearing it in their head was so interesting because that’s exactly what happens when I listen to it
Listen to this song being played in Lisbon here on youtube, you will see the crowd singing this part and James smiling, you can see in his face this exact thought going through his head hahaha incredible
Yep
Greg - "Is the guitar going to play the solo or you going to play the solo?"
Kirk - "Is there a difference?"
Legend 🙌🏻
🤘
You can really tell that James is way more comfortable with Lars making suggestions to help the song writing process. You can also tell that Lars is a bit more sensitive when it comes to suggesting changes. They've both definitely grown from when they wrote St. Anger and constantly argued.
Greg Fidelman: " Is the guitar going to play the solo? Or are you going to play the solo?"
Kirk: "is there a difference?" 🤔🤣
Jamie McMillin 10:35
I also love the way he so innocently says "Is there a difference" lol
What does that even mean, Kirk?
Kirk IS the guitar, same as Bono IS the record.

why not ZOIDBERG?
why always with the fightning
The first time I heard the "Hello darkness, say goodbyeeee" part, my jaw physically dropped and everytime I hear it I get all emotional for some reason. What an excellent song
definitely a stand out track and video from that album
Lars eating the same ol' sandwich since some kind of monster
По русски изьесняйся друг. А то ничего не понятно )))

No that was from "a year and a half"
No, Cliff em All
Okay - he's not the most technically gifted drummer, nor does he have quite as much stamina as perhaps he once did but watching this clip it's so clear that Lars contributes so much more to Metallica than just drumming. Without him they would really struggle when it comes to writing and particulalry arrangement. All you haters out there seem to forget that.
Lars is a great songwriter, composer, and occasional drummer.
I forget how they phrased it but they said that Lars is the heart and James is the soul (or something like that).
True
Jimmy K true that..
Dude, he IS a very fucking good drummer. I don't need ant George Kollias blasts, Thomas Haake time signatures, nor Brann Dailor fills over Metallica. The guy is one of the moste creative artists ever to have sit behind a kit, therefore he is one of the greatest drummers of all time. Technique is only accessory to innovation. Creative contribution to the world is greatness.
Seeing as to how he's self-taught (like myself), he's incredibly good.
"IS THERE A DIFFERENCE?"-I _AM_ THE GUITAR, MAN
fsmoura I noticed that too that shit was cooo
Where? I didn't hear it
@ 10:35
I AM THE TABLE
🤘
wasn't a big fan of this song at first but it just grew onto me. love it.
hahahazzry exactly the same with me!
It's like GNR's "Locomotive". It was years till I discovered that song on my CD. I ignored Halo until the internet kept talking about how great it was, and now it's a favorite... but I wouldn't have discovered it until I relistened to the album years from now (probably) if it weren't for the web. Kept thinking about that while watching this video.
oh, man.... I LOVE 'Locomotive'! What a song, dammit!
Same here. Good song
Same, thought it was decent initially, now it’s my favorite song off the album.
James and Lars are creative geniuses
Watching this I feel like Lars is actually more creative and James is more talented
James creates, Lars structures and produces.
A lot of people underestimate Lars, this video perfectly captures the dynamic between him and James as far as song writing goes, theres a reason both names are on every song since the beginning
Except Motorbreath
James plays guitar. Lars plays James.
DanjaTube thats true and thats why lars is so underrated.
@@brianwilliams4467 and anasthesia
"when the light turns on if the darkness doesnt go away, there's something wrong" James
I knew Lars had a great mind when it comes to arranging ideas and solving any hiccups in the writing process, but this video has taken my respect for the man up a whole bunch more. What an unbelievably talented songwriter he is and that's just gathered from this one 13min clip- imagine actually sitting in on the entire songwriting and arranging process. Mind blown! Metallica's success is hugely based on their great songs and Lars does all the heavy lifting in that department. His vision and ability to structure songs is second to none in the hard n' heavy genre. Anyone who thinks Lars is just the drummer has no fucking clue about Metallica- instant eod on all the uninformed opinions about his drumming. Suck it haters!
Unless when he decides to remove Jason bass on Justice for all
So true....he´s behind many of the arrangements that turned good Met riffs into iconic songs. Take the Enter Sandman riff as an example...
Totally agree. Just shows how music is behind the instruments in the players hearts and heads. For years people have slung shit at Lars, not noticing that he is playing THE SONG, not "just" hitting the drums. He's fucking awesome in both departments. His background growing up surrounded by all kinds of music and art, and being an only child of intellectuals in Denmark totally honed his musical ear and he understand how songs are structured and meet the listener.
Yeah, you're definitely right. He listens to so much music that he definitely knows what's doing when it comes to structuring and arranging songs. He's an integral part of the process.
Except he can't write good drum parts anymore.
Finally! This was my favorite song off the album. Thank You Metallica!
Dani C not manUNkind? Cause that’s my favorite
@@Flacko98736 honestly manunkind Is IMO the weakest on the album alongside confusion
These two men know how to write a song. This is one of the best Metallica songs ever recorded. And you guys did it post 50 years of age. How does it fucking feel? Because it feels amazing as a fan!! \m/
Alex Butovsky its is a very good song just like most of metallicas songs this song gets 5 stars
James kills it on vocals and some of my favorite riffs on this record
People can dog Lars all they want but he knows his business.
And business is good !
Lars is crap
@@heliszor6110 is your business killing?
11:32 Another example of why Hetfield is one of the greatest metal songwriters of all time.
these kinda videos show how amazing lars is when it comes to his vision. mad props to him
James is so humble that saying "Fuck off please" is like the niciest thing ever :D
Lars takes some criticism, but he can stitch together some great parts, its almost as if he sees the song forming in his head
He doesn’t get enough credit for this.
James and Lars bounce off each other perfectly when it comes to songwriting
@@billsutherland3935 He is literally credited on almost every song Metallica ever did.
@@chupasaurus I’m not talking in the literal sense. I mean more that he doesn’t get the appreciation and respect from the public regarding his arrangement skills.
i love the last 2 mins of this song so much. such simple licks kirk is doing but harmonically they sound amazing and that extra 2/4 bar every now and again is so perfectly placed.
The greatest front man there is as far as metal is concerned. James stage presence is just freaking awesome.
That Song Instantly had a Place in my Heart. Just like Spit out the Bone. Aw man nice writing.🤘🏼
THANK YOU MetallicaTv for uploading all of these f*ckin amazing videos.
Such a change from the old days..James calmly asking for "thoughts" and input..just seasoned legends loving what they do and we are glad they still do!
Keith Floyd Jr It does seem strange to see it, but you have to remember that James and Lars have always had a songwriting/arranging dynamic, we may have just not seen it before. Not to say James isn't getting better at being open minded.
Lars is ALWAYS eating something...
Eating is fun and food tastes good. Can't blame him.
The reason he often eats during interviews/recording is because he's multi-tasking in order to save time/be more efficient. It's really that simple.
Lucas de Souza Naves Filho Bread and egg is lars's favourite food
Yeah, that or chewing gum
Geralmente ele come o Kirk Sksksksksk
6:10 That breakdown into the toms sounds so good
Sounds a bit like the start of all nightmare long
good ass suggestion by lars
One of my favorite song, from the album
This song has one of my favourite guitar solos EVER! And to hear it here being written and coming to life gives me goosebumps 😍😍😎🤘🤘
Not a Metallica fan, but was really pleasantly surprised when I saw Kirk at 10:30 talking about wanting to play "Greeny". So glad that that piece of history is out of collection vaults and back to being heard again by millions of people.
You turn on the light and the darkness doesn't go away... there's something wrong.
So cool watching how the song changes from its conception to how it sounds on the final record
In my opinion, best written song on the album. This was the first video I watched and the chorus is just......how does James come up with lyrics with such depth on the melodic songs like this?
Does anyone think that Metallica should rename their "gift shop" to: "To Live is to Buy"?
That goes against ...and justice for all
That's pretty good.
If not, even as a subtitle would be good.
Joe Preston Holy shit that's good
Joe Preston No. It trashes them as musicians
Nicole S They had a jumper/sweater at Christmas called: The Sweater That Should not Be. So if they did this then I thought that the name I suggested wasn't a bad idea because they had already used a song name as a sort of a joke
I love these videos. I adore seeing behind the scenes-footage, of how the created the songs.
I love this album so much! It's great seeing the BTS of almost every track
The vocals in the beginning are beautiful
3:33 There is a little Kill'em All in the frame. Very beautiful.
This has been my favorite one to watch yet! Love the outro of this song and it is cool to see James talk about some older songs that inspired it. Very very cool!
I love these making of vids so much. The best part is when you can see some of the best known parts of the song being born in the moment through their ideas on the spot. Like when Lars has the idea for the big crescendo crashing open, leading into the melodic clean part. It's sort of the opposite to what they're used to but such an effective idea. And James' idea for the trailing lyrics and voice "say goodbyeeeee...." on the outro and how the listener sort of picks that up and continues with it. Excellent ideas and they just MAKE the song.
It's insanely awesome seeing the iterative process here! James and Lars on fire, just getting to the bottom of the discussions quick and agreeably.
It's seems like Metallica brought everything back from their older days onto this album. To be honest if you look at the songs on this album and just listen to how good they actually are, they will be some of Metallicas historically classic songs like fade to black. Spit Out the Bone is the Master of Puppets of this album in my opinion.
I'm so glad they posted these. I can't get enough
"is the guitar gonna play the solo or are you?"
"is there a difference"
that was such a good response
"Atlas Rise!" is the only song left.
PooplexCanal go watch its music video, dude. -_-
PooplexCanal it was like one one of the first ones
The music video had footage from other making of videos.
Do they have the making of Lords of Summer?
Moameth Dark Rider well, yes, but i want to hear the riff origin of that song, isn't that the purpose of those "Making Of" videos?
This video isn't long enough. I want to see MORE!
These making-ofs are just fantastic.
Love these videos and seeing the creative process that goes into making these songs. Love this album, awesome from start to finish.
God tier song and stands up with the best in the rest of their entire catalogue. Amazing seeing it being put together. “Hello Darkness / Say Goodbye” gives me chills every time I hear this song 🤘
My favorite lyric in the song
I just wonder how would the world with no Metallica look like.i cant imagine ,cant see the world without em, i grew up with metallica, it changed my life .
May you guys live forever. your Name and your music will live forever
Yes thanks guys I've been waiting for this.
I love watching your collaboration to create these masterpieces ✨
Thanks for the great start to the morning, guys. :) This has to be my favorite on the album. That riff at the beginning was so beautiful, and made my hair stand on end. Great song, y'all.
YESSSSSS finally my favorite song from the new album... I love these videos these videos are always amazing to watch... Thank You Metallica
Love this album. Listen to it all the time. Whatever the band members are doing it works. This album is one of my best sources of inspiration and motivation when writing riffs. To each their own. I hope they make more heavy albums like this.
I love this album more and more every day.
So this seems to be more James than Lars. I like how for this album they switched roles - most of the songs which are more Lars like Spit, Moth or Revenge are faster and thrashier while songs which are more James like Dead, Halo and Savage are slower, groovier and more melodic.
Awesome. I was waiting for this.
Such a cool song guys....Well done ......once again you deliver.....can't wait to see you live in Switzerland
funny everyone shitting on lars but this video alone proves how good of a songwriter he is. every cool part of halo on fire seems to have come from a suggestion he made to change something that made an otherwise pretty boring song
I was born in ‘89 and Metallica has been with me the entire time. They feel more like a family rather than just a band, and I sure as shit dread the day they won’t be around.
these videos are even better than live concerts i wish every video was at least 1 hour
4:23 - 6:30 I LOVE this, it really shows the growth of James and Lars since 'St. Anger.'
Lars pointing out a part doesn't sound good dynamically, and instead of to force something like he used to, he shows James the part and says "maybe I can do something better or maybe you do something better."
James hears him out, respects his input, but also mentions how he likes what the guitars are doing, Lars agrees and decides that HE needs to change up the part so it sounds good. They met in the middle and made a GREAT part of the song 🤘
one of the best & most complete songs off the new record. Seems like an awesome live song. Also whether or not you think Lars is a good drummer or not he sure has a knack for making/developing songs.
I just wish Kirk would play the solo live, the same way as on the studio version. Such a epic masterpiece \m/
I think he just plays random crap and no ody really gets on his case. It is like they don't want to go back to the days of being angry with eachother and just treat eachother with kid gloves. But as bob rock said Kirk has to be pushed in order for him to do good work
definitely one of my favorite tunes off hardwired. Great composure and riffs!
One of Metallica's absolute best songs since the Black Album!
Can someone compile all these videos into one long one so we can have a "The Making of Hardwired... To Self-Destruct" documentary type thing? I would love to watch that.
9:30 It's Some Kind of Monster all over again
Kirk has the easiest job ever i swear xD doesnt write anything and plays a random ass solo and leaves, great job man!
It was only for this album that he didn't contribute.
Tyler Dokis Actually it's Kirk's second record with no composition credits. The songs for Kill em All were written before he joined the band.
FrozenFire757 True. But at least the Kill em all solos were somewhat good. Most of the solos on this album are ass. Few good ones like in Spit and Halo i'll admit.
FrozenFire757 I forgot about that
TundraL5Z I fucking lold!!!
Thanks for everything guys.
Since '83, love you all, be well.
Man, i fucking love Lars, he is a genius musician, Lars and James have always been the real soul of Tallica, sorry Burton, Kirk, or Dave, Lars and James are the genius os this band
James and Lars are a phenomenal pair.
Just don't forget the contributions and writing Cliff did for their instrumentals.
José César man never leave Cliff out of the occasion... in an interview Janes said that Cliff taught him about harmonies... Cliff is a musical genius.... it's very unfortunate that he didn't get the chance to showcase it properly...
tho the masterpiece of Orion is more than enough to showcase that....
god bless you Cliff... we still miss u....
I love all of the contributions of various band members! Example - Newstead wrote the music for most of Blackened, same with Hammett for Sandman, etc.
All the menbers are importants of coruse, i just get tired of pepole talking shit about Lars skills on drums, for me, he is one of most great musicians of the century, my hero, with James!
José César Kirks solo really brings this song to life though...I love yhe tone they end up with.
It is clear to see here, Lars LOVED metal before he ever made any... He has really good ears for metal tunes.
Very interesting to be a fly-on-the-wall on their process. Art comes from magic and sweat.
This is one of my favorite songs off the new album. Just absolutely love it.
I live the outro to this song... quite easily my favourite on the album 😍
best song of hardwire
Matías Petrillo easilyyyyy
Nah... ONE of the best songs;)
Lars may not be the most popular and greatest drummer ever but he damn near is one of the best ever making music and riffs and harms. He so gifted and talented. My inspiration for that part
I love watching their process.
Extremely fun to watch for numerous reasons
sometimes i feel like lars gets a bad rap...
absurd207 Guy is a genius, there's a reason he's been doing it this long.
Best drummer of all time
13:07 halooo on fireee fucking awesome James
Thank yooouuu. I fucking love these. Love all the making of videos
Can't wait to see you guy's in Philly
James is one hell of a guitarist
the minute I thought when James played the slow riff was like the opening of Nothing Else Matters thrown into a soothing Fade To Black vibe. feels a little chill yet relaxing in a good way. a huge comeback and always an appreciative one. thank you Metallica, this is superb, and you guys clearly made this track one of the powerful ones.
No
I love to watch these when I get to hear other versions of what the song could have sounded like.
In the first minutes...Lars eating in the background while James is playing the guitar,is my spirit animal
I WANT A GUITAR LIKE HIS MAN IT SOUNDS SO BEATIFUL
how I wish to watch stuff like that from the sweet silence studios during the RTL and MOP recordings
Same here
These is amazing!
i love this making of videos
7:30 the way he says it reminds me of a VERY tired meeting
i love this song
This is one of the songs on the new album that the lyrics truly complement. Listening to the riff its aching for those repeated called out words at the start of each verse
Just amazes me like no matter how you get, you want to deliver the metal
Lars sense for arrangement is amazing!
