Got massive Goosebumps dude really nice work! So crazy how you can hear the song a few thousand times and eventually get numb to it but then....... Ahdy remasters it and I've just HEARD it for the first time. It'd be really interesting to hear you try your hand at some Maynard James Keenan... I'll be waiting 😉
Hey what happened to the Master of Puppets Remaster a few months back? I was wondering since I pretty much prefer to listen to your Remasters?(since they are absolutely epic).
Jesus of Suburbia, i believe it got moved to his patreon unfortunately, i was wondering where it went as well and i can’t afford his patreon so i’m not gonna hear it anytime soon
The lowered pitch of this song just sounds heavier. I like it better than the original in a lot of ways, honestly. That intro just blows my mind every time I listen to it as well.
YaBoyBillson it's at the pitch I tune my guitar (1/2 step down from standard / "Eb") so it sounds normal as far as pitch goes.. I always play everything on a pitch app
Christopher Frasher it’s actually supposed to be in 444 hz usually people adjust it to 440 for standard. This is a half step down and then some of you take that into consideration.
They were notorious for speeding their tape speeds up to create a faster song back then too.... James' voice has never been 'high pitched', but alot of the recordings make it seem that way due to tape speed on the master. The entire album "Ride the Lightning' is sped up and 'Master of Puppets' was the first that they actually played at speed and didn't speed anything up on tape.
For whom the bell tolls Make his fight on the hill in the early day Constant chill deep inside Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey On they fight, for the right, yes, but who's to say? For a hill, men would kill, why? They do not know Stiffened wounds test their pride Men of five, still alive through the raging glow Gone insane from the pain that they surely know For whom the bell tolls Time marches on For whom the bell tolls Take a look to the sky just before you die It is the last time he will Blackened roar massive roar fills the crumbling sky Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry Stranger now, are his eyes, to this mystery He hears the silence so loud Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be Now they see, what will be, blinded eyes to see For whom the bell tolls Time marches on For whom the bell tolls
You truly did Cliff justice with this remix/remaster. That's impressive, man, respect!. The way it blends with James' rhythm makes it feel more....menacing?....yeah, menacing lol
There is no such thing as this guy remixing the songs. This guy just uploaded the Guitar Hero: Metallica remix and put a cool image over it. I am not complaining, but stop thinking this guy is remixing stuff; to do so, you should have access to the original recordings.
I commented on here before, but I came back to listen to this version and man I swear it's like listening to it for the first time all over again ✊🏻💪🏻🤟🏻😎
Haven't listened to the original track in a few years. Listening to this with good quality headphones made me feel like I was 13 again kudos to you and all the work you do for the minimal amount of joy it gives to thousands around the globe! 🌹
I'm blown away. I haven't listened to this song in decades, though as a kid the first three albums were on my Walkman every day. This remastering nails it. Brilliant. Salut, Cliff.
I think I prefer this over the original. I do like the original as its much faster, more fine tuned but this is metal right here! The bell. Idk something about that bell makes it more menacing or something. Just sounds more dark
The bassline of this song is amazing and marries amazingly with the drums. Glad you turned it up. I love the guitar tones, very frosty like the RTL tone but more sofisticated
Listen to this, then listen to the original. This may first appear to sound better (because of the boosted bass and also because it sounds different to what you are used to), but listen to how clear everything sounds like in the original. I don't think this song (or anything from Cliff era) needs remixing at all. In the original the guitar and bass tones blend together nicely. It's the same thing on Master of Puppets album. The instruments are not meant to work on their own, they are meant to work together. This version boosts the bass too much so that it becomes overpowering and begins to sound like it's meant to be the lead instrument all the time. It may be nice for bassists to hear the bass part more clearly, but the average listener couldn't care less about what the bass is doing. The average listener listens to the overall sound. If the overall sound requires the bass to be boosted, then of course boost the bass. But I don't think it needs that. The original mix is just fine. You would need to change the guitar and bass tones if you wanted to make them sound more "separate". I'm pretty sure they consciously made the guitar and bass sounds blend together. It would need to be re-recorded to achieve what the uploader is after. And I say this as a bassist. Well, I'm a multi-instrumentalist but I play the bass in a band.
Mike Chang So what? I just wanted to share my thoughts. Somebody may read it and maybe agree, maybe disagree. How do you know nobody gives a shit? I just wanted to share my opinion and I have the right to do it. I didn't waste my time. I like expressing my opinion. If nobody reads it, fine. I have already forgotten about most of the comments I have written.
I can finally hear cliff's bass distortion pedal working this mix and remaster is phenomenal such detail and clarity every note ringing out Lars on drums is a relentless monster so good
This remix sounds fantastic, except that it's pitched down a half step from the original. I don't know if that's simply to avoid copyright infringement issues, but I would much prefer to hear the song in its original key. Other than that, this is an amazing remix, and I love the fresh, heavy sound it has.
If u have a smartphone, download this song using youtube to mp3 from the web, then get it on your phone, then get an app called "anytune". U can change the pitch and speed of the song.
I know that this comment is 3 years old, but I've just now stumbled upon it. It's not pitched down a half-step, it would be a lot deeper than this. All of the instruments are tuned to A444, instead of the normal A440 that most songs have, this was to match the tuning of the church bell. It might not seem like much, but those 4 degrees make a massive difference.
@@muddyshears Absolutely. As a young bedroom musician back in the day, I'd play over original recordings of songs for covers. I remember it boggling my mind that my guitar was perfectly in tune but it sounded horribly out of tune while trying to play over this track. A few years later I learned about the tuning. Speaking of fun Metallica facts, that's not a church bell, it's actually an anvil being hit.
Only one thing missing and it's not really your fault anyways. In the original song, Cliff played the bass intro with an harmonizer pedal wich plays one octave higher with the original sound thus creating an harmony. They didn't keep it in Guitar Hero's bass track of the song though. I wonder why.
This song is heavier than a tank
Dont you mean heavier than thors hammer
@@samijosephyahya3388 but that fat bass though SO GOOOOD
Im going to be mixing my own shit when i learn both bass and guitar (gonna take a while) and bass will be boosted like this
@@Mogunsforme good luck with that, bro! I'm learning them too!
@@Ilshatey Thanks and to you as well!
I'm normally not a fan of remasters but this sounds great. The bass sounds fantastic.
This is Cliff u.u

For Whom The Bass Slaps*
There's an article in the Kerrang that says they got a tip about a great band in California.
They sent a journalist to check it out.
He bought himself a pint of larger to watch the band and this song came on.
He dropped his pint in disbelief.
...
The song still has that effect to this day.
Do you know the link to this? I really want to read this article. Sounds so badass
@@MetalrageHell - Sorry ... I read this in '86 in a hard copy.
It would be great to find it in digital format though.
@@Bless-the-Name Was this the May 86 edition? I've just had a look and it has James on the front rocking out with a white guitar.
a pint of larger 🗣🗣🗣
My mind is blown from this version. Does HUGE justice to the song...
Project Mayhem and justice for all
Ya, I guess this did justice for you...and justice for all...
Justice is right
0:58 The definition of heavy metal, goosebumps!!
***** while Metallica sure is a thrash band (especially was back when this was recorded), this song is not thrash at all.
Zumun this is just heavy as fuck metal
Luis Parra
its thrash metal
Luis Parra goat riff
This sounds incredible. You can hear the sweep of Cliff's wah pedal loud and clear, not to mention the bass is massive and clean.
I’m 45 years old. I listen to this all my life and still do. Metallica rocks and always will . Thanks dude for this remix sounds awesome. Can’t wait to play on my subs .
Мне 46 слушаю с 15 лет, а эта тема познакомила меня с миром рока, и в частности тяжёлого металла

I hope you had a great time listening this on your subs cuz I certainly did!
100% agree with you man, Metallica kicks and will always kick ass! Rock on brother!
Metallica for life
why don't bands turn the bass guitar up more often? it makes the song sound much heavier like shown here
Because guitarists cant handle the fact that anyone other than the lead singer gets more attention than them.
Fucking pricks.
Tyler Mueller I am a guitarist and I agree. Guitarists are dicks.
***** What he said.

Will continue to remaster a couple of other songs soon!
Thanks :)
Ok are they done?
Got massive Goosebumps dude really nice work! So crazy how you can hear the song a few thousand times and eventually get numb to it but then.......

Lifting to this song gets you fucking pumped dude. Try it out man. You'll want to max out on everything with this in the background
(struggling to keep from laughing)
Yes life is short take it from somebody more than exhausted it.
This sounds even more terrifying than the original.....I love it
Cliff Burton would be fucking proud.
I absolutely love these "Remastered" versions. Thank you
For whom the bass tolls.
Rafael fuck yea rip cliff Burton
For whom the bell tolls
Make his fight on the hill in the early day
Constant chill deep inside
Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey
On they fight, for the right, yes, but who's to say?
For a hill, men would kill, why? They do not know
Stiffened wounds test their pride
Men of five, still alive through the raging glow
Gone insane from the pain that they surely know
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls
Take a look to the sky just before you die
It is the last time he will
Blackened roar massive roar fills the crumbling sky
Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry
Stranger now, are his eyes, to this mystery
He hears the silence so loud
Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be
Now they see, what will be, blinded eyes to see
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls
Thanks but we know the lyrics already.
War I didn't. :I
Good job! You copied the lyrics from the internet!
If you're listening to this version if the song id assume people already know the lyrics inside out
Sabino Garcia exactly what I was thinking when I was singing along
For a hill, men would kill, why? For this fkn song
hahaha lol
i dont think people truly understand how heavy the main riff is, all it needs is palm muting and its suddenly slam
You truly did Cliff justice with this remix/remaster. That's impressive, man, respect!. The way it blends with James' rhythm makes it feel more....menacing?....yeah, menacing lol
2:43 you can literally feel Cliff's geniusness!
bro pitch shifting the snare makes it sound absolutely enormous
For those who haven't yet, wear headphones.
In my opinion, lyrically speaking this song is the best Metallica's done so far... we all know why this is so good though.
Orion has waaay better lyrics

My favorite Metallica song, and I'd never believe I'd say this, but this sounds even heavier and better than the original (Y)
Probably because he lowered the pitch a little to match a regular tuning
Wow, never sounded so good/clear/heavy 🤘🏼 absolutely impressive
Man the bass is flawless, keep up the awesome work.
Love these remixes. Bass sounds outstanding. Sucks so many are set to private!
I just wonder how did u get guitar bass and drum tracks? Guitar hero?
This album is 30 years old this year fucking crazy how time flies.
The act of listening to this song updated my body's firmware to the latest version.

I thought this was gonna be another of those remasters but I can't stop listening to it lol
you did make it flow at a slower pace, very very interesting. Wonderful job on doing this artistic remixes
One of the most amazing and heavy tunes EVER MADE
This remix made this song heavier than a set of Elephant balls! Good job!
To tell the truth, I didn't use to be a big fan of this song. But now I am!
love it! How have i not found this earlier!
I forget how epic the intro is sometimes to this song!
