  • Hey guys,
    This is my cover of Fade to Black by Metallica. This song is without a doubt one of the classics that Metallica has put out, later spawning songs such as One and The Day That Never Comes. The intro solo could be one of the most recognized solos of all time!
    Guitars were recorded a 1/4 step up.
    Enjoy!

      pariskotsaros Every time I play the distorted parts of this song in my bedroom I always play that riff 10 times or so, just a killer riff.

    We played this song at my girlfriends funeral. Lost her in a car accident... I miss her for every minute that passes by every day. This was the ONLY ”metal” song she ever listened to and really liked.
    Miss U Vanessa, will love you forever and ever❤️
