Lars properly slows down during the double bass part after the guitar duel. It's noticeable, back down to album tempo. Once the double bass stops he speeds up again and James can't keep up.
Spring Bloom Anything but Coke? I think you missed somerhing. They themselves said that Kirk and Cliff smoked weed, Lars struggeled with Coke and James drank more beer than all of them combined.
@@ydnerol actually, it's more comfortable to play guitar like that if it's placed below waist. James' rhythm are mostly power chords (first & second upper string for most of the time), placing it slightly lower would make it more comfortable for him to do all the downstrokes, such as in Master of Puppets and Blackened.
Of course it is, But it is one of the main reasons. They were confused. They didn't know how to feel about it. They did not have a proper funeral. They went straight to touring right after it.
MetalBlade only partially correct, this comment makes Metallica seem like a bunch of edgy preteens that we’re angry at the world, first thing, they within the group would have competitions to push each other to pay as fast they could, like a oh bitch you can’t play this fast? Type of thing, also if it look at the performances on the damaged inc tour, before cliffs death, they were already playing this fast, it wasn’t a new thing. I’m sure that playing live definitely helped them get out a lot of the sadness, and grief they had but a lot of this shit really is overdone. I’m also sure that they were very sad but like I said, none of the speed stuff was very new.
@@michaelangeloh.5383 believe me, james is hitting every note, the Audio quality is just kinda garbage, but listen to Metal Hammer Fest Loreley, it has better Audio and is still extremely fast, and you can hear every note being played
Pretty much. They hired Jason shortly after Cliffs funeral and then they went back on the road. No time to mourn, to reflect, or any of that. All their therapy was put into playing loud, fast and hard while on tour. That and ALOT of drinking.
@@thrashmaniac2340 Also here too. Arguably while they did play fast with Cliff, it was also subdued from 83-86. Once Jason joined for the remainder of the MOP tour into 1987 after Cliff’s death. It was full ass speed to the motherfucking max
You’ve got to be a bad ass to just step in and play this tour less than a month after joining the group. Newsted was a boss live particularly on the Justice tour
This was in 1986 and Jason was on bass, so this can't have been long after Cliff's death (RIP). No wonder they sound particularly angry here, even by the standard set by their early shows!
+Soundtallica in Chains you're absolutely correct, many people commenting don't get why this period was particularly filled with anger... They're even playing faster than usual, no patience just drive.
+AZenith22B 27/09/86, the day before my 18th birthday. Worst present ever. And it was the day before my best friend's sister's 16th (or was it 17th?), whom I had a massive crush for at the time.
I saw them live at the Max Bell Arena in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on December 17th, 1986. I can attest to the fact that they played with the same hellacious, white-hot, angry fury as this video shows, most likely being partially out of their minds with grief over Cliff's death (and, in Jason's case, sheer joy for being picked as Metallica's new bassist). Of course, at age 18, those factors didn't come to mind - I was simply blown halfway around the world by their triple-speed playing. I loved Cliff, but I accepted the inclusion of Jason easily, since it kept my favorite band (at the time) motoring on. It's a shame that Lars and James couldn't, and tortured and tuned him him out of the band in ten years...their loss. But, oh, well...who among us hasn't fucked up hugely in life? Vive le Metallica.
Jon Vester I don’t know about that. Rob is a technically proficient bassist and is better than Jason on bass no doubt. However, Jason had the stage presence of Cliff plus some that fit perfect with Metallica.
@@realSuperSlawter Rob is obviously great, but I disagree that he is leagues above Jason. I believe Jason's reputation among certain fans would be different if AJFA was mixed properly.
And they say "Thank you, goodnight!" So, either the last song, or very close to it. This is after like two hours of playing, and it's fuckin insane still!
They actually played whole show in 1 hour and 30 minutes. Guys went batshit crazy. They played all songs ~15% faster, there is whole show and one dude calculated how faster They went that night. It was, really, really fast
yeah looks like he was trying to imitate Slayers Tom Araya but it was very amazing at the end to see him headbanging simoultanously with Jason, just too bad his headbanging ability didnt last long
If I was in a band and we had to follow that! I would tell everyone no let’s just go home cause if we try to follow that we’re gonna embarrass ourselves and the crowd will probably leave I heard the crowd did that a lot when ozzy came on after Metallica 😂😂
Greetings from germany. It must have been around late 1984 when i was sitting in front of my radio and listened to the once in a month Metal Show at one of the mainstream radio stations which were on airplay in those days. The guy there told us listeners that METALLICA has released a new record and that he is going to play the first two songs from side number 1. Haven't forgotten his words until today - that we have 2023. Haven't forgotten what happened afterwards: Fight Fire with Fire melted my little radio and afterwards "Ride the Lightning" made me totally freak out. I knew "Kill 'em all" as i bought the record in summer 1984 - being a strong follower afterwards. But what hit my ears at this never forgotten moment is still hard to describe in words. Untill today this record is my ABSOLUTE favourite within the Metallica catalogue. Still banging like hell today - that i am 55 years old. Greater than great!!!!!!
Dead Forever no phones, is 2018 is gonna happen regardless No mosh, most of Metallica fans are old Boring crowds, like I said crowds are old No fun, that’s subjective
just think about it… they are playing faster than the studio version. James is doing all of that AND singing at the same time. His vocals and hands are completely disconnected, but also connected at the same time in a way that he never goes out of rhythm. It’s actually unbelievable.
one of the first appearances of Jason Newsted in Metallica!! They couldn't find a best replacement for the great Cliff Burton. All my respect for this amazing bass player \m/
Man no matter how many times I listen to this song the last 30 years , everytime it's hits just as fuckin hard as all the other times , possibly one of the best true trash metal songs of album , and album for that matter as well to go along , this album is one son of a bitcb of musical genius , i so badly wish I didn't stop playing guitar in my mid 20's as I so deeply miss the feelings and emotions I used to get while playing along with songs like this and just all their stuff from the first 5 albums , just to play this song once again is reason enough alone for me to start playing again.
If the time machine invent anytime, i would choose bring best possible recording equipment from future to just record this Canada concert. The speed and insanity is crazy!
EVERY FAN OF METAL AND HARD CORE GET IN HERE. This is why Metallica is the greatest metal band of all time and always will be. Check out: Lars absolutely on fire, Kirk's amazing rhythm guitar playing, the harmonized lead with James, and the whammy bar dive at the end of the double bass drum solo! Holy crap they are shredding. This is twice as fast as the album. The aggression is unmatched to this day!
You go from this to Ozzy saying "rock and roll" while he is jumping and clapping his hands, in the same show. No wonder Metallica killed it every night before Ozzy.
Holy fuck. seen a lot of live metallica, but this......pure brutality. The Het was a beast. Still love them, even after saint anger. Watching them is THE reason I wanted to play guitar...just still working on the being good part. Thanks for getting me through adolescence.
Paul Bob I agree man. I honestly never listened to classic Metallica before now, largely because I hate Lars Ulrich as a drummer. Not as a person (although I hear he's not the most down to earth dude) but as a drummer. His drumming always felt odd to me, not in a complex way but just in a "weird" one. I now realize two things: - How much of a fool I've been not giving classic Metallica a deep listen - How much Lars was an absolute fucking BEAST back then. I've watched the making of the Black album and he was just a monster with his groove and heaviness, and in this video I mean... holy fuck. When they launch the guitar riff I was like "oh shit, going way to fast... no way Lars can follow", and then he proceeded to pound the shit out of his drums like a caveman on crack. I have a new found respect for Lars and Metallica. Newsted was a monster, Burton was insane and James was a killer songwriter. Still think their new shit (and I'm speaking objectively as a non-Metallica fan) is far below par of some of the "newer" Anthrax, Annihilator, Slayer or Testament.
How in the actual fuck was Lars able to play this? I’m on my drums right now trying to play the same tempo as this video and I’m about to fucking die! Lars is a fucking beast
Lars was insane good when they wrote puppets album. Crazy how time changes things. I think that about Hetfields vocals too. They really had something in 86

James started the song a little faster than the record, then a cocained Lars suddenly raised 30 bpms to the song. Priceless savagery!
Only cuz Lars can't keep tempo to save his life ( I say that as a huge Metallica fan, but fuck he sucks)
How do you know it was because of cocaine?
Joe maybe they were just angry. This was very soon after Cliff's passing.
Adam Gentile because lars was a cocaine addict
Lars properly slows down during the double bass part after the guitar duel. It's noticeable, back down to album tempo. Once the double bass stops he speeds up again and James can't keep up.
RIP E string
jossiqua I put you in triple digit likes
It probably broke soon after this.
i hope it was over the age of 18
And a pick. When I play this riff, the pick just crumbles
Hahaha
I think this video proves that Canada may have had some great cocaine in the 80's.
I'm guessing that wasn't snow they were playing with before the show...
fuck no!! they brought that shit from the bay area.
IronPumpkin01 Lars had his cocaine, James his gallons of beer and Kirk his plantages of weed. And Jason... well he is the devil incarnated
Metal is my Chim
If you think there is anything at play, but cocaine, you have missed the entire plot.
Spring Bloom Anything but Coke? I think you missed somerhing. They themselves said that Kirk and Cliff smoked weed, Lars struggeled with Coke and James drank more beer than all of them combined.
The studio version of this song is 4:43 long, they finished this song a 4:10, they played so insanely fast, that’s fucking metal
And to add to that this song is incredibly fast tempo already
This is all a combination of anger,alcohol,adrenaline,being in your prime etc it turned the band insane!
@@goldenwolf8081 You forgot coke.
What's so fucking metal about! It's fucking Lars speeding up ! The band has to follow the drum tempo
@@ivanvillarruz8412 Indeed, especially coke. The alcohol was usually for after the show when they drank themselves into a stooper
This is proof that James Hetfield's right arm is robotic.
Fly Landygo give Kirk credit too
@eniatsuM evaD Very fast taken to the next level LMFAO
@Tushar Sharma yes... but he didnt sing and he did solo anyway, and also set the guitar strap below his waist.. its hard to play like that..

I seriously cant believe the speed their playing this at, the album version is fast as it is.
Holy fucking cow! 😲😲😲
Its because this was right after cliff's death and they were playing out their anger. No waiting, just grind.
Total anger grindage! Metal AF! RIP Cliff Burton ✊✊✊🔥🔥🔥
Jawless Python that’s an assumption, not a fact
Of course it is, But it is one of the main reasons. They were confused. They didn't know how to feel about it. They did not have a proper funeral. They went straight to touring right after it.

cliff had died not too long before this was recorded...they were angry

There in there 50s or 60s and they still play this!!
What a beast jesus christ the aura is through the roof. He looks like a Bezerker viking out there.
The greatest heavy metal band in the WORLD😎
Slayer

Bold statement, but i think this is my favourite fight fire performance on UA-cam.
And believe me, I've done the research! 😁🤘
A Fuckin Freight train ! I wish I was there for this show . Wow !! James killed it
How in the actual fuck was Lars able to play this? I’m on my drums right now trying to play the same tempo as this video and I’m about to fucking die! Lars is a fucking beast
Remember all those people saying he's a shit drummer...
Lars was insane good when they wrote puppets album. Crazy how time changes things. I think that about Hetfields vocals too. They really had something in 86
coke also helps.
Lars is a lazy drummer he stopped practicing in the 90s that is his problem
