  • Metallica is an American heavy metal band from Los Angeles, California. Formed in 1981 when James Hetfield responded to an advertisement that drummer Lars Ulrich had posted in a local newspaper. The current line-up features long-time lead guitarist Kirk Hammett (who joined the band in 1983) and bassist Robert Trujillo (a member since 2003) alongside Hetfield and Ulrich. Previous members of the band include former lead guitarist Dave Mustaine (who went on to found the band Megadeth) and former bassists Ron McGovney, Cliff Burton and Jason Newsted. The band also had a long collaboration with producer Bob Rock, who produced all of its albums from 1990 to 2003 and served as a temporary bassist between the departure of Newsted and the hiring of Trujillo.
    Metallica's early releases included fast tempos, instrumentals, and aggressive musicianship that placed the band as one of the founding "big four" of thrash metal alongside Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax.[1] The band earned a growing fan-base in the underground music community and critical acclaim, with its third album Master of Puppets (1986) described as one of the most influential and "heavy" thrash metal albums. Metallica achieved substantial commercial success with their eponymous fifth album (also known as The Black Album), which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. With this release the band expanded its musical direction resulting in an album that appealed to a more mainstream audience.

    This song took inspiration from the book and film "Johnny Got His Gun". An anti-war film about the *true* effects of war. The army and doctors keep him alive. He has no limbs, 1 sense left (touch) and no facial features anymore. But he still has mental capacity. Yet he's kept alive against his will despite using morse code to communicate that he doesn't want to live anymore. It's a film everyone should watch at least once in their life. It's a great film, very meaningful. Give it a watch if you haven't already.

      Depends on what the war is fought for.
      Some wars are unnecessary, some wars are necessary.
      An example of an unnecessary war would be the Boer War, influence wasn’t necessary for the British Empire in Africa (plenty other colonies).
      An example of a necessary war would be to stop the oppression of Nazi Germany back in the 1940’s.
      War is terrible I agree, but it comes down to this. We hate it, but we need it.

    This song really hits hard for me. I was 2 years too young to go to Vietnam so I was very fortunate but I had many friends that went and they came back totally broken and lost.
    I'm a musician and I go to the VA Hospital here in Seattle and I take my guitar with me.
    I play music for the men and women that are in bed or walking or whatever and it's really a great bridge to some very meaningful conversations.
    Sometimes I play my guitar and I sing and sometimes they'll sing with me and I can see the weight lifting off of them.
    I feel blessed to be able to do this and to have these wounded and largely forgotten Warriors open up and tell me their stories and tell me of their pain and sometimes of their happiness but not often.
    I would encourage anybody that's a musician or an artist or just anybody that cares to find your VA hospital in your area or any kind of va Institution and go there and volunteer in some manner.
    I guarantee you those servicemen and women will be overjoyed that somebody cares enough to come and just sit and talk with them for an hour.

    I remember my uncle had a stroke that almost killed him a few years back. Fortunately he managed to survive and is pretty much completely better now and I'm thankful for that. He's always been a Metallica fan, but he told me once that when he was in the hospital he felt like he was in the music video of One. Most of the lyrics actually related to his experience as well. Vicariously it's such a scary thing to go through but I'm just thankful my uncle is still alive and seems to be doing better now.

    My favorite part is the solo climax at 6:20 into the brutal outro with the harmony part. Turn up the volume to absolute maximum. The sudden silence after the last notes is introspective.

    My Navy bud introduced me to Metallica in 1990. I've progressively became a freak about them. I'm a guitar player so I gravitated to Kirk but James is just as good. Their music is pure genius and lyrics are pretty damn good too. I just love their long instrumentals and fast playing and chord changes in the middle. Just brilliant!

    I remember when I went to the soldier recovery unit in JBLM, I was in a spot where mentally I was so lost and confused about everything. It was probably one of the darkest moments in my life as in depression and paranoia. When I went to my unit, I was very lucky they allowed me to not be in formation because of how I isolated myself to not talk to anybody. I told myself not to make any friends because of how insanely paranoid I was due to sexual violence. Even though I told myself that, it was inevitable that I met people and talked to them. I met a long time specialist who fought in Afghanistan (If I recall) and had to fight child soldiers. He was super fucked up, like he mentally was not here every time you saw or talked to him. He was there for years I think, but he was getting out the same time around me. I was only there for 6 months but it was crazy that I met him. When I think of this song, I think of everybody I also met in JBLM who was also lost. The soldier recovery unit was truly a blessing for me, because I realized everybody there was just as lost as me. I felt like I belonged and I told myself that I would make it out like them. I miss them and I hope they're doing okay. Every time this song plays in my playlist, I remember them.

    Just went back to this song this evening. Oh my, its one of those great ones, is it not? But for me it all started with a ball of red yarn, unravelling it. There is this freeway running through, "And a river runs through it" and wwhat not, in litterature called "canon", in Japanese (as this where I live these days, "michi"). A road. Everything is a reply on something someone else said or wrote or sang. Heard that this one might have been, at least lyrically, inspired by Dalton Trumbo's "Johnny Got His Gun". Got that book way back from my aunt, who is a poet (one of those rare published ones), and it had a profound impact on me in my youth (oh my, that was some time ago!). And began unravelling it back to here. Does it stop here, tonight? Well, we'll see.
