This is a song about the 10th plague God struck on Egypt, personifying the death of the firstborn son of every person who didn’t paint their door with blood; as you may recall in the book of Exodus as Moses leads Gods chosen out of slavery.
You definitely haven’t heard enough Metallica! They’re considered one of the big four bands who pioneered “thrash metal” including Anthrax, Megadeth and Slayer.
Fast? No, if you want fast - Battery live from Seattle 1989. That performance makes this feel like a Ford Pinto stuck in neutral. It is just an unreal performance and I am a Metallica fan from the 80's. I have been in many crowds at Metallica shows and when they play this song and get to the section where the crowd is chanting DIE DIE DIE it is just a totally next level energy!
If you want fast, then Battery or Ride the Lightning fits just fine, but if you really want to explore the death side of things, the best cut on this album is Fade To Black.
Just saw Metallica for the 3rd time. 1998, 92, and 2024. They are still so good! Maybe not as raw as they once were but they matured into something amazing.
Dude, in 1991 Gorbachev was the Soviet president. He was replaced by Yeltsin in December, after the USSR collapsed. Putin was only 39 at the time and working for the mayor and went on to be the mayor of St Petersburg's Head of External Relations. He didn't become president until 2012 (excluding his brief appointment, by Yeltsin, as Prime Minister in 1991).
Parents in the 70's and 80's: Metal music is Satanic. Metallica: Writes song about the book of Exodus 🤪😂 YEAH!!! I'm so psyched that you're finally doing Creeping Death!! I saw them for the 3rd and 4th time at Texas Stadium (I refuse to call it AT&T Stadium) in August of last year and it was MAGNIFICENT! There were 100k people there and Metallica played Creeping Death and I was right there screaming "DIE, DIE" along with the other 99,999 people. It was ELECTRIFYING! It was a 2 night concert and I yelled, sang and cheered myself hoarse. I couldn't talk above a hoarse whisper for 2 weeks! 😂 Abso-freaking-lutely worth it!!!! Unless they are doing a cover (like Turn the Page or So What) their songs always have a deep message/meaning/subject. They are a band you should dive deep into because of your appreciation of lyrics. 🤘Rock on, Kelly 🤘
Besides tape-trading that launched the careers of many metal bands in the 80's - Anthrax, Overkill, Exodus, Testament, Slayer, Death Angel... from the USA... Voivod, Anvil, Exciter, Annihilator... from Canada ... Kreator, Sodom, Destruction, Tankard, Running Wild... from (West) Germany... Iron Maiden, Saxon, Venom, Motorhead, Onslaught... from the UK... Metal fans also began publishing heavy metal fanzines that listed tape traders... reviews of bands and albums... interviews... And those publications circulated all over the world and many were printed in native languages. That was the world before the internet.
Creeping Death is from their album Ride the Lightning. Great album. But if you really want to do yourself a favor, eet aside an hour, put on a big pair of headphones, and listen through the album Master of Puppets to its entirety.
The Russian young people knew Metallica music the same way us Boomers knew music - you pass it between friends! Back in my day, you'd make "mix tapes" and pass them along to friends. It's like evangelism - spread to the faithful by word of mouth!
Ew, don’t make music sharing gross by association with evangelicals 😂 we all stole music off the radio with cassette and cd players 😂 boomers need to understand their bummers.
You have GOTTA do more Metallica!! They’re arguably the biggest band in metal. They really are more than just a metal band, though. They’ve ventured into quite a few other sounds and genres
Glad you decided to do this one. The raw energy of the performance is still electrifying today. Once you dig into Metallica's lyrics, you'll probably be surprised at the subjects they cover. Can't wait to go see them next year.
I was 14 years old the first time I heard Metallica and I heard it on MTV! Back then, that was our go to , especially Friday nights at midnight on Headbangers Ball! Who remembers headbangers ball?
This is a song about the 10th plague God struck on Egypt, personifying the death of every person who didn’t paint their door with blood; as you may recall in the book of Exodus as Moses leads Gods chosen out of slavery.
It did not kill every person that did not paint their door with lambs blood - It only killed the first born sons, and in doing so killed the Pharos son as well as anyone else's first born son that did not paint their door.
Welcome to the Metallica family brother.....music, especially LIVE music, will never be the same. There's an appreciation to what they do even if you don't personally enjoy it. They are the best live band in the world!
I saw them live 3 times and they kicked my ass every time. 20,000 people yelling die is something you'll never forget 😅 For Whom the bell tolls live is my absolute favorite from them. Check out April Wine..Roller extended version 🙏 Great reaction and Peace out 🙏 ☮️ ✌️BTW in Russia they would get bootlegged cassettes and pass them amongst the citizens..they did it will all music back in the day 😊 James grew up in a really strict religious upbringing and his lyrics reflect his life
James Hetfield writes most of the lyrics for Metallica , Lars the drummer arranges the music , the other fellas also contribute but it's mainly James and Lars . They are also the original co founders of Metallica .
I don't know if Hetfield is "God Fearing", but he is a son of a preacher (i think Methodist), and his dad was horrible to his mom. So I think that veered him away from faith...maybe...he couldv'e came back too, I'm not 100% sure though. This song is bangin'!!!🤘😆..they do many songs with deeper meaning than most. Great reaction P! 40!
Summer 1988(36yrs ago) Monsters Of Rock Tour was in Buffalo NY, Rich Stadium. Line up: Van Halen-Scorpions-Metallica-Dokken-Kingdomcome. I WAS THERE at 16yrs old. Metallica was brand new to our ears. A fan ever since😊
This song is from their 2nd album Ride the Lightning. This era is when they were still more of a thrash metal band and much less radio-friendly. Some of the biggest differences from this era, as opposed to the post-Black Album years are the length of the songs, more reliance on speed metal, and the range of tempo changes and dynamics with any particular song (listen to Fade to Black, Sanitarium, Master of Puppets, and the instrumental Orion for good examples). Starting with Master of Puppets and even more so on And Justice For All, they incorporated more prog rock techniques into their sound. The biggest difference between those two albums was the loss of their bassist Cliff Burton who was killed in a tour bus accident while the band was touring in Europe. Cliff Burton was a huge influence on the sound of the first four albums, even though Jason Newstead replaced him after his passing on Justice. In addition, for reasons really only known to James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich, the base level on Justice was nearly eliminated in post production. Starting with the self-titled Metallica album, a.k.a. The Black Album, Metallica’s sound shifted to a more radio-friendly production. Mostly the songs were shorter, they leaned more into a classic metal sound as opposed to thrash metal or prog metal, and James Hetfield’s vocals became cleaner - primarily to try and save his voice from being totally shredded. Still, there was enough of a classic Metallica sound to differentiate it from either grunge or the 80’s popular “hair metal” trend. That run of five Metallica albums - Kill ‘em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, And Justice for All, and the Black Album - is one of the most impressive string of consecutive album releases of any band at any time in rock history. They’ve had other good albums since - S & M 1 is a live album gem recorded with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra - but those first five are the gold standard. Master of Puppets, in particular, is a no-skips classic!
Hearing that song live is an experience like no other. I've seen them twice. You can't tell in that video, but when you're in the crowd and everyone is yelling die die die.....you can barely hear the band. It's insane.
Jack Black told a story at Ozzy's Rock N Roll Hall Of Fame induction this week about walking into a record store and wandering around till an older guy pointed him to the heavy metal. This happened to a lot of us or we joined record/tape clubs and they sent us random music every month. We heard things at friends houses or in clubs or riding in other people's cars. That's how you got exposed to new music and different kinds of friends and people from other places brought new stuff with them and good music spread like a virus. :)
It was contraband and also sailors bringing back latest vinyls. Thats how my dad got all the latest records. Also, you have to react to metallica live in seattle, that one mf live performance
You want to see a great concert of Metallica ? Seattle 1989 . Type that in and you will see one of the best concerts you have ever seen in your life !!!!!
At that time Metallica had just released (and justice for all) the song one shot them to super stardom and they were arguably the biggest band in the world. They had three albums before that were basically underground when I was introduced to them. A lot of people accused them of selling out when they came out with the song one, which made them a household name!
People got the music by trading cassette tapes back then. One of the coolest things I ever owned was a black market cassette tape from metallica's early days. It had a few of the hits from their first album but with totally different lyrics. I wish I still had it because it feels historically significant now.
Saw them when they were just 16/17 yrs old playing the Moore Theater in Seattle. I will never forget that experience and how they have grown! I was 16 at the time as well. Oh the memories!! ❤
Dude, metallica goes hard. You definitely need to listen to their older stuff. They set the bar for many hard-core rock bands. This song is from ride the lightening. Great record.
A lot of people have misconceptions about what metal is. Check out the album Master of Puppets. They touch on several societal topics, including religion, war and drugs.
GOT BIG THRU THE UNDERGROUND , THE BLACK MARKET, A LOT OF REACTORS ARE FINALLY DOING REACTIONS RIGHT , THEY ARE REACTING TO WHOLE ALBUMS ! THAT'S HOW YOU GOTTA DO IT OR YOU MISS SO MUCH... LMAO HIS FAVORITE SONG BY PANTERA IS WALK , BUT HE'S ONLY HEARD 2 SONGS BY THEM , THERE'S SO MUCH MORE THAT IS EVEN BETTER BY THEM.... IT'S GROWING LIKE CRAZY AND THERE ALL SAYING THE SAME THAT THERE'S SO MUCH MORE WHEN U HEAR AN ALBUM AND NOT A COUPLE SONGS , THE FULL ALBUM REACTIONS U NEED TO CHECK OUT , PEOPLE ARE LEARNING SO MUCH MORE ABOUT ALL THESE GREAT BANDS THAT THEY WOULDN'T BY ONLY DOING 1 OR 2 SONGS...
You should check out their cover album Garage Inc., they cover "Whiskey in the Jar", written by the same band that wrote your theme song, Thin Lizzy. James Hetfield regards Phil Lynnot as one of the greatest songwriters of all time, and Phil was Ireland's first black celebrity!!!!
Bro you've only heard Pop metallica, this song is off the 2nd album, and this is the Metallica that everyone knows and loves. You'll need to go through their catalog if your impression is just Enter Sandman and The Unforgiven lol
Metallica rose to fame even behind the iron curtain of the USSR because of bootlegged tapes and vinyls and this concert is rumoured to have over 1 million people there and the army were also there during that time Which can be seen in some of the cut scenes
Yea at that moment all those soldiers had no bosses, the Soviet Union had collapsed. There were soldiers that partied with the masses and other soldiers killed about a dozen teens for having too much deserved fun.
the public didn't know, USSR was under strict censorship, also they mostly didn't know english, the ideea was about freedom, hope for the future and new beginnings that brings people together
Pantera played right before them. "Domination" was their last song. Dime showed out. Walking off stage he told Kirk, "Let's see you follow that boy". 🤣🇺🇲🤘
Funny story… I found your channel first but had not heard of you(no offense). I HAD heard of Krizz bc well KC-near native but found his channel through you and another creator. MLBoyd. Thank you! I ❤️ your channel.
Monsters of Rock Tour This festival in Moscow in 1991 featured Metallica, who played a set that included "Enter Sandman" and other fan favorites. The festival was one of the largest concerts ever, with 1.6 million attendees. And by the way, there is no God, just Bronze Age fables. And apparently, even the Christians have forgotten most of what he said, judging by their current behavior.
Passover, the doors not mark with lambs blood were sacrificed. Cliff Burton died in a tourbuss accident. For whom the bell tolls, four horseman, one or sanitarium, master of puppets.lots of good stuff the earlier the better.
People dubbed tapes back int he day, thats how. Then they grew a following, those people introduced it to their friends. Ride The Lightning may have had music videos on MTV, but I was two . Their first album came out a month after I was born.
Bro, check out anything from Master of Puppets, Ride the Lightning, or Kill em All. The first three albums are all at this kinda tempo. This my favorite era of Metallica.
Yes yes yes!!! Such a great song, such a great story. Please check out their early albums for their fastest (and best) stuff: Kill Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets. My choir instructor in a Christian school told the class we could all bring in a biblical song to listen to in class. Of course I grabbed this one. He was seething all the way through and it was great!
Awesome reaction brother Pegasus...inspired by a viewing of "The Ten Commandments" I believe...The Death Angel or the Passover Angel = creeping death...
Curious if footage of concert summer 1988(36yrs ago) Monsters Of Rock Tour Buffalo NY, Rich Stadium? Line up: Van Halen-Scorpions-Metallica-Dokken-Kingdomcome. I WAS THERE at 16yrs old. Metallica was brand new to our ears. A fan ever since😊 Had huge teleprompters so could watch closeups of bands & crowd. I will always remember being on the giant screens. Friends I was w/said "Look your on TV!" Camera guy zoomed right in on me!..a closeup! I couldn't believe it! Sure love to see me back then😊
This was a Monsters of Rock tour with multiple metal bands featured & at this time Metallica was one of the biggest Thrash Bands out there, so they went on later with probably more time, but it was one big ass concert tour that was yearly put on with different bands. Metal I believe was one of the big black-market items over there before all of this, so people knew these bands.
My cousins in a communist country wanted anything American, they all did! I sent a bunch of 45's to my cousins one of which was "GREEN TAMBOURINE" by the Lemon Pipers. They were so popular in the village and actually were allowed to play it over the sound system in their school which made them a big deal ! Things were brought into those countries or sent by relatives ,thats how the music and fashion got in!
"I didn't know they played this fast."
My sweet summer child. I envy the enlightenment that lies before you. Behold, "Battery," and ye shall know.
OR WHIPLASH
“Battery” Live in Seattle 1989 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Listen to Metal Miltia
This is a song about the 10th plague God struck on Egypt, personifying the death of the firstborn son of every person who didn’t paint their door with blood; as you may recall in the book of Exodus as Moses leads Gods chosen out of slavery.
You definitely haven’t heard enough Metallica! They’re considered one of the big four bands who pioneered “thrash metal” including Anthrax, Megadeth and Slayer.
I have been blessed to say I have seen them all live
Enter sandman is when they started to do heavy metal.

Battery is by far the best song to pit to
@@bdarylk i may throw Whiplash in that conversation.
Whiplash is super fast! Off their 1st Album Kill 'Em all.
Old Metallica is Thrash Metal to the max. Hard and Fast.
Back then, it was true Heavy Metal on Headbangers Ball
Venom, I would consider the beginning of thrash metal
Just saw Metallica for the 3rd time. 1998, 92, and 2024. They are still so good! Maybe not as raw as they once were but they matured into something amazing.
Creeping Death=The Passover
For whom the bell tolls, ride the lightning, and justice for all, blackened and wherever I may roam.
🔥🔥🎸🔥🔥
All these and dyer’s Eve
Battery, Metal Miltia, Whiplash faster then those, For Whom the Bells Toll is my #1 song, seen them do it live many times
This is my favorite Metallica song!!!!

Metallica ARE the Gods, Godfathers and masters of thrash metal. All you need to know. Check out their 80's albums.
You have GOTTA do more Metallica!! They’re arguably the biggest band in metal. They really are more than just a metal band, though. They’ve ventured into quite a few other sounds and genres
I second this 😎👍🏽
The enormity of that crowd still blows my mind🤘🔥
Their first 4 albums are all heavy.. Excellent song writing and lyrics. The breakdown in this song is effing awesome 🤘🏼🔥
The bass slap from Jason after Kirk's solo is absolute 🔥🔥, cheers to the camera man for catching that and editing it in
Glad you decided to do this one. The raw energy of the performance is still electrifying today. Once you dig into Metallica's lyrics, you'll probably be surprised at the subjects they cover. Can't wait to go see them next year.
LMAOOOO… your reaction, you’re gonna hurt yourself! My husband love love loves Metallica! He’s 63 now and still rocks out to them and others.
Gen X here and Metallica is one of my favorite all time bands! This is on my workout playlist when I’m doing cardio! Gets me going! 🏃🏼♀️➡️
Oooh, ooh, ooh, welcome to early Thrash Metal!!! Glad you looked up the lyrics too.
I was 14 years old the first time I heard Metallica and I heard it on MTV! Back then, that was our go to , especially Friday nights at midnight on Headbangers Ball! Who remembers headbangers ball?

1991, MTV was huge, magazines, radio broadcast,

Pegasus talk about fast you REALLY need to do Holy Wars by Megadeth. The lead singer Dave Mustaine was Metallica's original lead gituarist
Dude... Can we have 1 damn Metallica reaction without Megadeth stinking up the joint????
Sorry, only said because BP hasn't done a Megadeth reaction, chill
So glad you pulled up the lyrics
Hearing that song live is an experience like no other. I've seen them twice. You can't tell in that video, but when you're in the crowd and everyone is yelling die die die.....you can barely hear the band. It's insane.

Always listen to the album versions to get just how good they are.

the public didn't know, USSR was under strict censorship, also they mostly didn't know english, the ideea was about freedom, hope for the future and new beginnings that brings people together
this gotta be the 3rd time you've reacted to this as if its new LOL
10:37 We had these things called albums.
😂😂😂💯truth 🤘🤘
Pantera played right before them. "Domination" was their last song. Dime showed out. Walking off stage he told Kirk, "Let's see you follow that boy". 🤣🇺🇲🤘
And Kirk fucking did. THATS why Pantera went on first. They saved the BEST for last.

Monsters of Rock Tour
This festival in Moscow in 1991 featured Metallica, who played a set that included "Enter Sandman" and other fan favorites. The festival was one of the largest concerts ever, with 1.6 million attendees.
And by the way, there is no God, just Bronze Age fables. And apparently, even the Christians have forgotten most of what he said, judging by their current behavior.
Wanna have your mind blown watch A Metallica S&M video!
Passover, the doors not mark with lambs blood were sacrificed. Cliff Burton died in a tourbuss accident. For whom the bell tolls, four horseman, one or sanitarium, master of puppets.lots of good stuff the earlier the better.
I agree there earlier music was faster and harder( no diddy)
People dubbed tapes back int he day, thats how. Then they grew a following, those people introduced it to their friends. Ride The Lightning may have had music videos on MTV, but I was two . Their first album came out a month after I was born.
Bro, check out anything from Master of Puppets, Ride the Lightning, or Kill em All. The first three albums are all at this kinda tempo. This my favorite era of Metallica.
Fade to Black - Metallica
Speaking of Cliff Burton, check out Cliff'em All home video, Seek and Destroy live Germany 1985
Next up, Battery from 89! It's even BETTER!
Yes yes yes!!! Such a great song, such a great story. Please check out their early albums for their fastest (and best) stuff: Kill Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets. My choir instructor in a Christian school told the class we could all bring in a biblical song to listen to in class. Of course I grabbed this one. He was seething all the way through and it was great!
also please do Megadeath Sweating bullets with video
Also James when doing the black album changed his voice. So their first 4 albums he sings differently
Check out "Whiplash", a ballad from the 1st album.
Jason Newsted was the other person singing - the Bass Guitarist.
Awesome reaction brother Pegasus...inspired by a viewing of "The Ten Commandments" I believe...The Death Angel or the Passover Angel = creeping death...
Putin was in the KGB back then
Curious if footage of concert summer 1988(36yrs ago) Monsters Of Rock Tour Buffalo NY, Rich Stadium? Line up: Van Halen-Scorpions-Metallica-Dokken-Kingdomcome. I WAS THERE at 16yrs old. Metallica was brand new to our ears. A fan ever since😊
Had huge teleprompters so could watch closeups of bands & crowd. I will always remember being on the giant screens. Friends I was w/said "Look your on TV!" Camera guy zoomed right in on me!..a closeup! I couldn't believe it! Sure love to see me back then😊
This was a Monsters of Rock tour with multiple metal bands featured & at this time Metallica was one of the biggest Thrash Bands out there, so they went on later with probably more time, but it was one big ass concert tour that was yearly put on with different bands. Metal I believe was one of the big black-market items over there before all of this, so people knew these bands.
My cousins in a communist country wanted anything American, they all did! I sent a bunch of 45's to my cousins one of which was "GREEN TAMBOURINE" by the Lemon Pipers. They were so popular in the village and actually were allowed to play it over the sound system in their school which made them a big deal ! Things were brought into those countries or sent by relatives ,thats how the music and fashion got in!
