      Hey bro PLZ React to SYSTEM OF A DOWN MIND, Since 2018 I'm suggesting this song, there's no music video, also after the studio version do it the live on: 1997 (Serj sounding amazing in this one) the one on BDO 2002 (Insane), and the one on 2003 (I forgot the name of the stage but its only a cam filming serj from far so its not that worth it tho) my fav is 1997maybe?, idk but in this one the instrumental sounds really weird the quality isnt the best but his vocals are amazing, but the BDO 2002 is amazing too!
      This year will be 4 years suggesting the same song, its a like a College graduation

    James wrote it about his own father. "Harvester of Sorrow" is also about him. "Dyer's Eve", "The God That Failed" and "Mama Said" are about his mother. He grew up in an abusive Christian Scientist household, and had just started to reconcile with his mother before she died of cancer, she refused to seek medical help because of her religion, hence "The God That Failed", which also killed his father, so he really never got a chance to reconcile with either of them, which is touched on in "Until It Sleeps", Fixxxer" and "All Within My Hands".

      But they are indeed very underrated. Same goes for Death Magnetic and Hardwired. The only thing i personally hate about the last 2 albums is that it sounds like they just sticked some riffs behind each other to make a song longer. Which you can hear very clearly in Halo On Fire so yeah.....but still very good albums 🤘🏻

    I've always been a HUGE Metallica fan!! I love your content of all types and reactions in general. However I had never fully realized the real life stories behind some of these songs or every lyric. So it's been greatly eye opening with this Metallica journey I've joined you on. I have heard several songs from that album but not all of them. Including this one and the other one where he spoke of the abuse he endured from his father. That I had heard before but hadn't pieced together what the actual lyrics were speaking about. In all honesty as much as I love Metallics and your reactions due to my own experiences and history I could hardly finish listening to this. I nearly had to stop the video about half way through. Just hit's to close to home. However I do love when artists use their own experiences to fully bring their craft to life. It makes it so much more relatable and pulls at the heart strings and helps to bring their story to a much more vivid picture painted for us. Music is meant to make you feel something and to me the more an artist can do all those things. Which Metallica is known for really tells you just how talented an artist or band is!! ❤️

      ​@@Justice_Hammer Exactly! This is why DM was the only Metallica album I refused to buy as it literally gives me a headache to listen to this song alone. The GH3 versions are what I have listened to since 2008, they are still a little clipped but no where near as badly as this version! That album, DM, is the number 1 reason why with my band's music, I record every bit of it at -4db, then while editing and mixing it I keep it at -4db then after mastering it I boost it to 0db so that NOTHING is clipped. No lost levels of the high end or low end is compromised! DM is their worst album in my opinion just because of how clipped it is. Justice is their second worst album to me for similar reasons, bass guitar is missing. St Anger is their 3rd worst due to the snare tone...lol The songs on DM and Justice are top tier! No complaints there - just the final product was ruined which downgraded the songs too much to be enjoyed as much as their other albums which do not suffer that loss of fidelity and overall sound quality.

      @Bacta Work Maybe. At the time, I did like the title track somewhat and Some Kind of Monster, but I guess that album had to be made for the band to continue.

    Glad you checked this more recent phase as well. This song live is something else...and I gotta say the Load and Reload album have some pretty solid songs too.
    My suggestion is Ain't my bitch, from the Load album. Keep digging, Alex! 🤘🏽

    This album start to finish is a masterpiece! Metallica in my opinion was going through a rough patch of sub par albums for years after the black album, and then this gem was made. One of their best albums in my opinion. Im so jealous you are just discovering this album for the first time. What I wouldn't give to hear this album start to finish for the first time again!

    Hey, I remember when this Album came out... I was in high school and already pretty deep in my love for Metallica. And I specifically remember that this song, also "Broken Beat and Scarred" and "The End of The Line" from this album was good xD The rest... meh.. And I cannot remember them. .3.
    And also... Metallica is always open to listen to other bands when they need more inspiration :P

    Got more of a Load sound with this one. I think Bleeding Me when I hear this, which I loved, with a dash of new. Ifell off of listening to them after reload, but I’ll never say these guys weren’t one of the reasons I picked up a guitar. Fade to Black is the one, but not the only. 20 years later (for me), still got it. Thanks James and Kirk. You’ll never know how much you truly meant to all us axe wielders 🤘

    Having a dope ass day here, then it gets better with Alex!
    I humbly suggest the most underrated Metallica would be from St. Anger and either Frantic or the Unnamed Feeling.
    Both songs and videos are deep into the mental side of pain. While Frantic might be more a life story very much in the style of Hero of the Day (video wise) Unnamed Feeling is terror.
    Fun side note Death Magnetic released just before a deployment for me so I got the latest Metallica before getting the combat. Would have been one less thing for my ghost to stay on the world for.

  • @StephenUK

  • @Deacon_20
    @Deacon_20 2 роки тому +2

    In my opinion, the 3 best Metallica albums are the “Death Magnetic” album, “and justice for all” album and obviously Their unmatched “Master of Puppets” album. Was listening to this song earlier today, and even know it on guitar. Love it 👏🏻

  • @silasyoung6954
    @silasyoung6954 2 роки тому

    This is the first Metallica song I ever heard. I still remmeber the first time I ever heard it too, my dad was driving me to one of my little league football games. This song not only got me into Metallica and the rest of their discography, but also subsequently turned me into a metal head. Initially I listened exclusively to Metallica and Megadeth, until I discovered testament and realized there were other good bands out there aswell. Now I listen to all sorts of different metal subgenres.
    Not only did this song just get me into the genre, but the guitar solo was so mind blowing to me that it made me want to learn how to play the guitar, which I still do today even years later!
    I dont care what people say about death magnetic, I think that it is a masterpiece and it will always have a special place in my heart. This song is definitely structured after One, the slow build up throughout eventually ending in crazy thrashy guitar solos. I dont listen to Metallica much anymore, but I will never forget what they got me into!

      This album came out in 2008 and was the first album with Robert as the full-time bassist. (also first one after St. Anger...) They had six single off of it and two hit #1 on the US Rock charts (this is one of them)
      As noted above, for me this album is up there with Hybrid Theory and Rakshak for replay-ability.

    Hey Alex, I'm a huge Sevendust fan and from what I can see you haven't reacted yet...
    There's a song called "angels son" by them as a dedication to Lynn straight, but that song doesn't entirely reflect the band, so if you could react sevendust-licking cream and then look at Sevendust- angels son. That would be epic mate.
    Cheers from the land down under bloke!
    Appreciate it.

    I really hope you react to the rest of Metallicas album! Even the their cover album garage inc! If not, then the songs I’d like to recommend for you to listen to that are personal to James Hetfield are The Unforgiven (backstory is about his parents, manly his dad), Until it sleep and Mama said (about his mom) The outlaw torn (loosely talking about cliff burton) Low mans lyric which is super sad because it’s talking about the perspective of a homeless person. And possibly all of the st anger album which is a big risk.
