- Kill 'Em All: The CHAOTIC Story Behind Metallica's Debut album. So much was at stake, and its proof that the guys in Metallica didn't take the easy route. It was a very hard road for them to get to where they are today.

In 1991 I was still in the Army, and we had just finished spanking Iraq during Desert Storm. We were in Saudi Arabia waiting to go back to the US. Some friends and I decided to go to downtown Riyadh (against orders). We ended up in a mall where I found a music instrument store. We went into it, and I picked up a guitar, turned the gain up to max, cranked the volume, and started playing "Seek and Destroy". About halfway through the song, one of my buddies taps me on the shoulder. Up until that point, I was looking down at the fretboard. When I look up, through the store's plate glass windows, I see literally HUNDREDS of people watching me play. They had varied expressions ranging from disdain, confusion, and some even had smiles and were into it. I'll never forget that.
😂 I've heard soo many idiots tell this same exact story.....but I'm sure you're Legit 🤷♂️
Hell yea we kicked their ass!!!!
"spanking Iraq"
lol thats a good word for it
Sounds like a gay story
@@jpbludga9562You sound gay.
This was the start for me, Metallica rules from the beggining off what we called speedmetal. From then on, i was about 15 years young, everything was about their metal!
I am 59 now and enjoy every moment off their music! The family rules! ♨️♨️♨️
I'm 52 and when I discovered ride the lightening that changed my guitar playing forever
Anymore they suck
My Dad moved to El Cerrito CA from New Jersey the summer of 1980. I spent the summer of 81 & 82 in El Cerrito then decided to stay for my stint in 8th grade at Albany Middle school. Little did I know (I did not hear them yet) that Metallica 😳 was living right down the road from my dad's house. I may have even seen them at the El Cerrito plaza and didn't know it. I moved back to Kendall Park NJ in the summer of 84. That summer my friend Sue Dominoski turned me on to Metallica & was hooked from that day. Another little did I know happened....that they followed me to NJ & were living 35 minutes from me 😳 Man I wish I knew then what I know now. Fast forward many years & many shows later. I was able to redeem myself getting first come first serve tickets free from The Wiz for the Black album release listening party at Madison square garden . My friend Greg & I made our way down to floor level right at an exit. And who do you think was hanging out there watching. They weren't supposed to even be there so they said.Kirk went into the crowd with his I would imagine girlfriend at the time and no one even knew it. A smaller group at the exit where I was knew Metallica was watching the show. I was able to reach down and high five James and Lars... After they played all the videos & cranked the whole new Black album Metallica went on stage. Lars goes to the mic and says it's James birthday.... Everyone say fuck you James!!!! & we did 😂 Never forget that day 🤘🤘🤘🤘
James and Lars had a lot of balls. Here you have two kids who have played together a handful of times, they go to a concert of a band that was already established and had released a record, and they decide they want that bass player to join them.
That's why Metallica made it so big. Hetfield and Ulrich had a vision since the beginning.
You know now that I think about it you are right on with that. They basically poached Cliff from a more established band. Good point!
A friend turned me on to Metallica in 1985. Kill em All and Ride the Lightning were out at the time and man, I was blown away at how good they were. Went to Master of Puppets tour in 1986 (Long Beach Arena) 4:26 and got see Cliff Burton right before he passed
It had to have been really cool to see him live. I can only imagine!
I got into Metallica after buying Kill 'Em All shortly after it was released in 1983. I was living 90 min from LA at the time. I wanted to go see that show you're referring to so badly but I didn't have a ride, then Cliff was killed in that bus accident a few months later and I was so upset and bummed out.
@@guitarmeetsscience It was bro, let me ask you, did you get to see Dime and Pantera? Cause that’s one of my biggest regrets.
One of mine too - sadly I never had the chance to see them. I saw Metallica three times post cliff. Interestingly the last time when the guys are all 60ish they played their absolute best. James was just getting over the bug too. One helluva show.... But to see diamond the gang, that would have been a whole other level.
@@guitarmeetsscience absolutely
Considering Cliff's aversion to becoming mainstream,I think metallica would've taken a very different direction had he lived.
Totally agree. Cliff would have had none of this shit!!
I agree - it would have been really interesting to see where they went musically. Pantera was just around the corner, so for all we know Cliff might have hooked up with that lineup if he found Metallica was getting too commercial. That in and of itself would have been pretty interesting.
@@guitarmeetsscience whoa, the thought of Cliff in Pantera just gave me chills!!
Universe, please make that happen in my next life!!!
@neckbone3943 damn right -They probably would have stayed together who knows
Or he would have grown up and changed himself, like almost everyone does.
I saw them open for Ozzy in 1986 and had no idea who they were, amazing how long it took for everything to finally hit me all at once in 1987 when I started to learn guitar.
They didn't do that many shows of the Ultimate Sin tour. Ozzy flaked and went back to rehab. Metallica was on fire right about then and didn't want the buzz to fade away, so they went to Europe and toured there planning to rejoin ozzy when rehab was done.
It was while they were in Europe that Cliff was killed in that accident......put that thought on the back burner for a bit, well get back to it.
When ozzy got kicked outta Sabbath he wanted to build a superior band to triumph what Sabbath had done to him and acquired Randy Rhodes. Randy and his friends made fun of Black Sabbath. Considering thier style sub par for the kind of music he wanted to write and play. In fact he planned to leave Blizzard of Ozz after the Diary tour was over. It was during that tour Randy was killed. Had Ozzy left Randy in Quiet Riot he wouldn't have been in Florida for the tragic accident.
......Had Ozzy kept out of rehab and his tour going, Metallica would have been state side. Not on an icy roadway in Europe.
So rock music has lost 2 of its most brilliant stars due to the actions of Ozzy Osbourne.
His song You Can't Kill Rock and Roll, well if you're Ozzy you sure as hell can.
I live outside of Seattle. My friend and I drove to Vancouver BC to buy tickets for Ozzy/Metallica at the PNE Expo. Then had to drive back to get a refund after the show was cancelled. Ugh. Okay rant over.
Ur lucky u got to see them with Cliff. My 1st Metallica show was the Lightning tour in Seattle St Patrick's day at the Moore Theater 85. Armored Saint opened. That night changed my life.
In 86, I was 15 and a huge Metallica fan. My older brother (18) Saw them open for Ozzy (with Cliff!) on that tour and came home saying how much they sucked.
I'm in my 50s now and I'm still bitter about not going to that show.
@@lr6884 wow so I kinda feel like you do like I missed it while being there not even knowing who they were and the fact that Cliff was there is mind blowing! I was 12 or 13 so kinda not with it yet.
I didn’t realize how important Hugh was. Hit the Lights and Motorbreath are my favorite songs from that era.
Both great tunes!
He's never claimed any part of them though
Who would have thought,that 4 men in their 20’s that were a part of starting the thrash metal movement. Would now have their third album in the Library of Congress's National Recording Registry.
Dang - yeah it is definitely quite the accomplishment for sure! They've come a long way
Great video man. I’m 55 and have been a Metallica fan from the beginning and this brings back memories I have forgotten now 🤟🏻🎸
Thanks man - that is awesome that it brings back memories, that was definitely the goal was to sort of be able to relive what it was like back in the time when these guys hit. They were young, hungry, and their music was dangerous as ever. I really do appreciate the kind words! 🤘
Might want to mention the track "Am I Evil?", which was only on certain runs of the album.
Great track
@@guitarmeetsscienceI came here for the lessons of that song. Great video!
Thank you man!! 🤘
Diamond head🤘
The Diamond head cover? Didn’t that end up on Garage Inc?
“Am I Evil?” or “Blitzkrieg”
@@FaultySporkMa yeahhhh 🤘
Blitzkrieg
I was a college intern at music America Studio when Metallica was recording there. I didn't meet them or know of them at the time, and then a couple years later I switched from music into photography and started working for Gary Heard, the photographer of the album cover. I saw the album on his Studio wall when he told me he did the cover after being asked by the bands producer Paul. Strangely enough years later while I was working for Kodak I got to meet Kirk Hammett and told him the story, he got a kick out of it.
How freaking cool is that! Thanks for sharing that 🤘🤘
No life till leather. Bay Area Thrashers. No life was a blast in Australia. If you had the tape you were my mate. It was so fast and furious, people hated it. Metal for ever. We are One under the black flag ✌️🤘🏴🎸🥁⚖️🇦🇺
Right on - you were one of the early adopters of early thrash. Hats off from the US 🤘🤘
I got this in like 1993 while visiting my grandparents. Was the first CD I’d bought, remember sitting in their baby blue bedroom listening to this over and over again. I’d started playing guitar earlier that year. 30 years later, I’m still playing riffs from this album. The best
Lots of memories with this one!
The band that introduced me to heavy/alternative music.
Most artists are lucky to have 2 or 3 great songs on an album Metallica nails every song , every album.
To start your career with Kill em all, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, Justice for All and Black might never be duplicated as far as quality of songs
Exactly - that's one hell of a way to start a career
I really wasn't expecting a video this good.
Thank you so much man!! 🙏
To the guy who mentioned about diamond heads sucking my love you know your music most Metallica's early sounds came from diamond head budgie and sabbath
Metallica did a better cover of the Diamond Head song, however I too am not a fan of Diamond Head, they didn't go far. I am aware of Metallica's roots I even personally know some of the guys in the band or that were in the band. Jason Newsted came from Flotsam And Jetsam yep I know them, Rob came from Suicidal Tendencies, I know them as well, but i still don't like diamond head. I stay far from Lars and nothing against Kirk but Dave is GOD and a much better player in my eyes.
Not as much Budgie imo, but I'd say Diamond Head, Venom, Saxon, G.B.H, Mercyful Fate, Sabbath, Motorhead, Priest, Raven, Tygers Of Pan Tang, Blitzkrieg, Savage, Discharge, Thin Lizzy, etc.
They've been quoted as saying they wanted to put two 'heads together to create their sound. The two "'heads" being Diamondhead and Motorhead.
I was 17 in 83' and buying & listening to this cassette is one of my best memories 🤘
Oh yeah - to own that cassette back in those days. Hell to own it now. Great memories with that album for sure 🤘🤘
I bought it that same year - I was 13. And I learned drums and later guitar from playing along with that album.
@@hinjurock 🤘
6:44 look at Cliff! What a monster!! 😳😳 what a special talent the world was robbed of...
Gone too soon 😔
That picture on the album looks like a kid with a hammer in his head while doing the shhhhh thing with his finger.
Lol now that I look at it that way you are absolutely right haha
It took a few minutes, but got what you meant in the end.
A bloody silhouette, with "his" head facing right, towards the hammer and the hand pretty much bottom, centre.
Maybe not their intention, but an interesting take.
Did you see that from the beginning?
Was wondering if you meant perhaps with the eyes, dotted (pupils), either side, or the two white spaces towards the left corner as eyes. That would have been some stretch though.
Actually, while Kirk was copying Dave's solo in Hit The Lights, Dave was copying & guy named Lloyd Grant who originally played the solo. I'm sure Lloyd's solo is on YT somewhere.
Still my favorite Metallica album. Very raw and kinda punk rock
Punk definitely had an influence on thrash for sure
always bin my favorite Metallica . I mean really, seek and destroy is just the ultimate metal song& anthem❤
Great stuff! I like how you analysed it with music theory. One correction however: The Raven tour was the 'Kill em all for One' tour, as it was a combination of both of their current albums: Kill em All, and Raven's All for One.
Cheers!
Thank you so much! That encourages me to weave in a bit more theory in there too. I love theory. Thanks all so for the clarification, a bit of errata on my part. Cheers man!
RIP ANGEL 😇
Thank you Dave
Don’t forget that the Seek and Destroy solo took heavy inspiration from Saxon’s Princess of the Night
Yep - good point
Bro they flat out plagiarized the shit out of that solo 😂
When Kurt Cobain finally was on a tour they were he asked if he could stand side stage. James was like “any requests?” Jokingly and Kurt was like “Will you guys ply Whiplash?”
And he did. He said he glanced over and Kurt was smiling and rocking out. So many big musicians fight.. I love little stories like that.
One of the coolest stories ever - thanks for sharing that!
Love this style of video dude! This format would be great for Anthrax's debut as well!!
Thanks for the kind words man! Anthrax is awesome definitely on the bucket list for sure!
Really the way I heard it from the Lemmy movie from the man himself is they where recording in England and got loaded every night so Lemmy's wondering where they got the time or where up to doing anything.
They were menacing and frighting. And they are classic!
The Four Horsemen was the song that made me a fan of Metallica when I was a kid. The first time I saw them in concert (Louder than Life Fest 2021), they played that song (and also played the entire Black Album in reverse sequence). It was a full circle moment for me, and it was very cool, especially since (prior to that show) it seemed like they don’t play The Four Horsemen that often.
That's the perfect track to get started on! That's great you saw them - I saw them a couple times and I must say that last year they were better than they were in the '90s. That band just keeps on getting better and better
Wait until you hear James sing the mechanix haha it’s weird
And when they do they usually cut out the mellow bridge section.
Started listening to them when I was 11, been obsessed since. I'll always love these guys!
Recorded in my hometown of Rochester NY.
Nice! Great music scene in New York or at least there was when I lived there. I lived on Long Island.
@@guitarmeetsscience we've always had a pretty cool and eclectic local scene here. Brann Dailor and Bill Kelliher from Mastodon are local natives. They were in an amazing tech metal band called Lethargy. There's plenty of their stuff on UA-cam to check out.
7:50 as a fan of both southern rock and thrash metal, I’d never drawn that connection, but I love it!
Right on - they both go hand in hand perfectly!
this shit was recorded in my city and it's my biggest flex
Right on haha - valid flex 💪
Yeah buddy!!! Rochester New York.. it’s my flex as well.
I heard the debut of Seek & Destroy on the metal hr radio show when Kill em' All came out I was 17 . It started my metal journey to this day at 58 🤘
What a perfect start to a metal journey - right on! 🤘🤘
My introduction to Metallica was Kill 'em All. A stoner coworker who was a few years older than me gave me a cassette recording and said it was way too heavy for him. I was blown away instantly! Way different from the music of the day I was listening to: Scorpions, Ratt, Judas Priest, Van Halen, Ozzy, Sabbath, etc. Total raw, adrenaline inducing power! Still love it today.
Awesome story! I can relate - I came up in that era too. And yeah, Metallica brought something new and raw to the table as opposed to all the more slick and polished bands of the day. Thanks for sharing the memories - that's awesome!
Rochester is a great music city. Lived there most of my life. One of my earliest music memories was finding out Metallica recorded Kill em All there. One of my last was handing out with Danny Lilker at the Bug Jar.
Very cool!
Great documentary! Now time for a Motorhead episode please👍
Thank you! Oh yeah - they are in my bucket list for sure 🤘🤘
In 1983 I was a freshman in high school when I bought this album published by Megaforce records. I just remember my friend laughing at their pic on the back saying he saw zits. lol Anyway.. the music blew us away and when we saw Ride The Lightning we couldn't buy it fast enough. It wasn't long after that they signed to a major record label and the word was out.
Right on - it's a great memories with those albums for sure. Lol yeah I could see that about the zits. I remember being taken aback by how differently they looked - because most of our introduction was through Master of puppets when they had grown up a bit by that time. Thanks for sharing that - Ride the lightning rocks too!
Speaking of bands who influenced Metallica that were in turn influenced by them, The Misfits in 2000, had a very metal sound to their classics that had been covered by Metallica on Garage Days.
The One video and song is what turned me onto Metallica back in 88-89 era. I was 10 years old and had a music store next to my house and discovered Kill em All, as And Justice for All was new and sold out and besides at that time expensive. So I bought Kill em All and was instantly hooked. Such a great clean sound. The bass is audible and Lars has some good fills on this album. Believe it or not I think Ride the lightning was the last album at that time that I bought, one of the best for last. Seeing Metallica and Pantera this friday so it's going to be surreal 🤘🏼♥️
Right on - That is a great way to get introduced to Metallica. You are in for one hell of a show -I saw them last year and they were better than both times I saw them in the '90s. Have a blast!!!
@@guitarmeetsscience Thanks dude 🤙🏾♥️
Still one of their best albums after all these years! It’s up there w/Ride the Lightning, puppet, & Justice albums!🤘🏾🤙🏾
Nice job on the video
Thank you so much - I really appreciate that!
Very good video. Highly recommend watching it if you're a fan of Metallica weather it's new or old this is a great video to check out . Nice job dude
Thanks brother 🤘🤘
I thought i knew the Metallica Lore but you proved me wrong, Keep it up man, Very soothing and interesting listening to
Thank you so much - I didn't know it so well before this video so honestly, it just took a lot of digging. You probably inherently knew a lot more than I did. Thanks for the kind words bud I appreciate it
@@guitarmeetsscience Of course man, I forgot to mentioned, Everyone surely would enjoy another cover for the other albums so you know what to do man👍🏼
Right on Joel - love your channel name by the way!!! 🤘🤣🤘
dont forget the "rust in the eye" in the uhaul to new York ....story !!
Oh darn now that I think of it - yep.... Lol it's always after I get a video up that I'm reminded of these things. Thanks bro
My bud Bill Sutherland turned me onto Metallica in early '84. I went to see them open up for Ozzy in '86 for The Ultimate Sin Tour in Saginaw, MI. Metallica was the bomb 💣💥
That is awesome! They still tear up that stage - saw them last year.... James was getting over being sick, didn't take away from the show one bit. Truly a great band!
I’ve never thought much of Kirk from a technical standpoint, but his licks are creative.
You are crushing it btw, much respect.👊🏻
Thanks man - he's not exactly in the Guthrie Govan League, but he does bring a lot of heart and soul into it. When I saw them last year he put on a hell of a show.... Really him and Lars both are entertaining as hell live.
Kirky boi, until before Load and Reload, was a monster lead player, then he became lazy and repetitive, straight up lacking imagination.
You learn a Hammet solo like Ride the Lightning and you're ready to play lead guitar. Simple as, regardless of what people like to say. We all started with Fade to black or whatever early Metallica solo one prefers, and thats way more powerful than whatever Malmsteen clones were doing at the time, or restless Polyphia clones do these days etc.
If I could go back in time I would definitely see Metallica for their first three tours …luckily I was able to see them in concert for the And Justice For All tour
Thank you for your service in the forces and in metal🤘🏿
Kirk was fresh in those days, Joe satch taught him some chops
That happened years later
Yes- mostly pentatonic scales in first album- but from ride the lightning on you could see his development as a lead guitarist.
@@SimonRefaloGuitaristOfficialHe still pretty much always stuck to minor, pentatonic, and phrygian
@@michaelblaine6494he was already getting lessons from Satriani
Anesthesia is my favorite song on the album
A total classic!
13:40
* cracks knuckles *
Actually the riff from E1M1 in Doom is based on Master of Puppets according to the metadata found in midis from obscure version of the game for IBM's OS/2 operating system.
Been browsing Doom wiki for some time 😂
Kudos man You know your stuff 🤘🤘
great vid brother!
Thanks brother 🤘🤘
Dave leaving the band and kirk joining the band was the best thing to happen for metallica. I love Dave, don't get me wrong, but kirk was it.
The chemistry was so much better once Kirk got in. I really think he played a big part in the band finding success because he got along so well with them. And really I'm sure it actually helped Dave's success as well in a roundabout way.
it all started with "hit the lights".....first song to be officially released on a lp !!
The makings of History right there!
@@guitarmeetsscience yes !!!!
Hugh Tanner never got credit either
@@bathory5026Well he's never claimed he wrote any of it
Real KILLer video Jimmy! Fascinating story and docu without a note of their music, and still fascinating. Lars won’t be coming after you.🤘🤘Right on my friend, good job 🔥
Thanks Ed!! If they copyright smack even a 5-second clip all revenue goes to the publisher. I'm not in the business of funding a record executive's kids soccer practice lol. Glad you liked it man always great to see you Bud!! 🤘😎🤘🎸🎸🎸🎸
Great vid!
Thank you man!
One of thrash metals finest albums. Still one of my favourites,we used to throw that album on and go nuts lol. Whiplash is a killer track.
Oh yeah! Whiplash total classic!
2:43 James kicked Dave’s dog 🐕?
What a fucking awesome video.
@@Krzztl thank you so much!!! 🤘🤘
Yep that's why they love the zulus so much. They believed in the album more than the band did.
Hello from West Virginia
Greetings West Virginian!!! 🤘😎🤘
2:44 makes me love Dave even more! 😢
Oh yeah - I would react the same way if somebody did that to my shih Tzu!!
For those who don't have the original album (SHAME ON YOU!), I will just type some of the cool written stuff that is included in the booklet. Dudes were absolutely hilarious and charismatic:
"SPECIALLY HUGE AMOUNTS OF HATRED AND CESS RIDDEN FILTH TO THE POOR DOWNTRODEN VICTIMS THAT FOLLOW: U-Haul; Laramie, Wyoming; Andrew Lloyd Friedman; Jamaica, Queens; Spon Q (6$ a shot!!); Tony "Artwork" Taylor; A. Lame; and the unknown Opera Singer in the music building who woke us up too early!"
XD
I still have the CD booklet. Someone took my cd years ago, but still keep the case with booklet 🤘
Did we ever hear why they wrote that about Laramie? Lol
I kinda think they started the trend for thrash bands to have irreverent liner notes
ok but who or what got James to bark his vocals instead of doing that NWOBHM style he was doing in the demos?? who told him to scream in a more monotone style?? How did that happen and when?
Excellent Man !!!
Thanks brother man 🤘🤘
Hugh Tanner introduced Hetfield to Lars? I always heard that Hetfield met Lars through an ad in the recycler.
Yeah, same here - it was Lars' ad and James responded.
Errata..... Than you!
saw an intervjue with Lars about this not long ago. He said that James answered his ad and they met up, but didn't hit it of at all, so they went separate ways.. And Lars went home to Denmark for a while.. When he came back, to the states a friend of his had started a record company and he was about to release a compilation album with the bands on his label. Lars asked if he could join that album, only he didn't have a band.. So then he thought about James, and gave him a call. James came around, and that's when Metallica started mostly as a cover band. only Americans didn't know that, because they where covering European bands that Americans didn't know about, and they didn't say that they played covers.... it became a problem when they where about to seal a record deal, because almost every song they had was cover songs :) But looks like they fixed that somehow..
Gary Rossington told on a Lynyrd Skynyrd documentary,about how they were always broke before making it big,but sometimes could afford McDonalds,and went on to say that you had to eat fast,because if another guy finished his and saw you had some left,he'd take it from you,imagine fighting over a big mac lol,but,brawls between those guys was a way of life anyway.
Oh goodness - that's a pretty fascinating story in and of itself. To have to whip through your lunch before somebody else tries to swoop in and steal it.... That has got to suck! Thanks for sharing that one
Metallica also stole sweet home Alabama guitar breakdown .. lol
I think kill em All was the 1st Perfect Hard Rock / Heavy Metal Album!
5:52 it says 'turn down bass on amp' on the cassette. Lol. Lars and James did exactly that on AJFA. Some foreshadowing for ya...😅
Hahahaha Good catch! Yeah that's about right lol
If I were to pinpoint the exact moment when Metallica took a turn for the worse, it's the first time they were photographed without at least one member wearing a Misfits or Samhain T-shirt.
@@hellbenderdesign 🤣🤣🤣
First video I've seen of yours... awesome stuff, subscribed!!
Thank you so much! Glad You're here, and I'm glad you dug it! Makes my day bro 🤘🤘
I think Kirk must remember wrong, because Seek and Destroy was inspired by Sucking my Love.
The similarities are easilly captured.
Definitely a life altering event or events as being around twenty at the time Kill Em All and Ride The Lightning came out. There Was kind of a malaise of Punk, Hardcore and Metal at the time that was getting stale. Gave me a whole new reason to avoid the real world and become a Thrash Metal head. Luckily we had Banzai Records in Canada that pretty much put out all the greatest Metal of this time. Was fortunate to see Metallica in 85 in what was still by future standards a small venue. Saw them again and again as it got bigger and bigger.
It seems like your first two albums have to be hell to make in order to have a crack at making it big. SlipKnoT had the same issues, but everyone all had serious substance issues.
I can't imagine Lars in that fight. His superpower is a smarmy Cali ear beating.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It was hell to listen to. It sounds like 70's rock. It's too slow for me to even consider it thrash.
It sounds like a good acdc album thats super proto metal but slow unlike megadeths first, hey wait thats the reason dave sped things up
KEA is basically a Megadeth album performed by Metallica.
I heard Bible was also written by Mustain Crist.😂😂
Why did James hetfield write most of Megadeth albums too?
Cliff kind of looked like Roger from American Dad
Dave was kicked out when they were in NYC
Yep and sent on a bus back to LA
Hey Lars with Hair😂,No i Love Metallica ,I Will Say About Mustaine ,I Wonder if he knows how to Smile,Every Person at Work Just Loves Him,Me well Thats Another Show😅Still Love Metallica ,Think James Gets Better the Older he Gets,Another Great Story, Have a Great Day my Friend, Keep Rockin 🎸🎸🎸
Haha Lars with hair!!! 🤣 Yep those were the days lol. If Dave mustaine smiled, he would completely ruin his image lol. James could get away with that, but Dave is another story haha.... I love Megadeth as well, and I'm glad Dave found his own vehicle. He was never one to sit still though so it would have been just a matter of time before he jumped at a project. Thanks Rebel you rock!!! 🤘😎🤘🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
@@guitarmeetsscience He is Funny Mad,Still Love Them All,Was Waiting for Another Slash Pick but His Stepdaughter passed and He Canceled all Concerts Until further Notice, Have a Great Day,
My first discovery of Metallica was when Master of Puppets came out... I was 15. Then I went back and bought this masterpiece and Ride the Lightning. It's hard to pick a favorite from those first 3. It can change day to day, but those first 3 albums are just pure perfection.
A got my intro with Master as well. I was like what the hell - on headphones nonetheless. Still crank them today just like back then 🤘🤘
I love some Kirk's early solos he has some absolutely iconic stuff on the first 4 fade the black solo welcome home sanatorium seriously every guitar player my age must of learned that biggening solo it really is pentatonic genius but I fucking hate that wah wah enough already put the fcking pedal away lol like that will ever happen 😅
Hahaha he loves that wah! 😀
I love that wah.
Fire into the flames go crazy
It should've been easy to make once in the studio though. After all, Mustaine had all the riffs written for them already.
All? He cowrote 4 songs 😅
They treated Jason very bad and after decades Jason was just an employee to them. When Robert joined they gave him full partner on the spot. They suck as people
Very true
To be fair, they matured. They publicly acknowledged they treated Jason bad, and went overboard to treat Robert the exact opposite.
I don't know why .. Jason was amazing at his job and band member!! Ego bs I guess
@@mixelplik aka bad people. When Jason wanted to return they didn’t think he would ever be a member
They realized how badly they treated Jason, which is why they gave Robert partnership. They also realized that you have to treat your bandmates as entities and not hired help, which is how they treated Jason.
Great show.
Thanks Frank 🤘😎🤘
dave had issues getting along cus drinking but i'm guessing they didnt like him cus he would fight and when he did he would win. glad dave got kicked out so we had two great bands instead of one. once kirk joined, the band was packed with talent but that was a major loss when cliff died he was very good at writing music. the producer mad a big difference also when they got flemming rassmusen the producer is more or less part of the band but noone knows it. i like bob rock and he did some nice producing tricks but it just wasnt the same
According to mustaine he wrote their first two albums and part of the 3rd.
He's never said that, he said he wrote some music for the first album (4 songs), some music on the second album (2 riffs) and claims a song on the third album which Metallica has denied
It was hell on Dave to write all those riffs
Really? I think he enjoyed it
Most was James
I was asked to buy James a beer,Woew look now bought smokes instead.....shy my ass....🙃😈😉

Thank you kindly - I definitely plan to! 🤘🤘
@@guitarmeetsscienceYay!! Thanks!
@christinecrawford and thank you as well!!! 🤘🤘
I remember buying this album when it first came out. I had heard Metallica on one of the “Metal Massacre” compilation albums . Then I got a copy of the demo tape. I knew they’d blow up. Everyone of the hair metal kooks were like “that thrash is just a fad” 😂. 40 years later Metallica still packs stadiums and are worth a billion dollars. I loved everything up to the black album. But they lost me during the 90’s. Pantera kept me going during the 90’s. They did a reverse Metallica. Metallica started off heavy and looked like real metal heads. Then started wearing makeup and crap during the 90’s. They turned into the posers they hated in their early days. While Pantera started off as a glam band and shed their gay hair and clothes. And each Pantera album just got heavier and heavier. I still go to Metallica concerts. But they aren’t cheap anymore. 😂. The first time I saw Metallica it was 12.00$. The last time I saw them it cost me 700$😂
Right exactly - it's amazing how much the price went up. We have the eagles to thank for that.
make one about ride the lightning
Yep that one has been slated 🤘🤘
When your drummer can barely keep time, but has lots of cash
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I hate that bands like sepultara m.o.d. which became s.o.d. death angel. Are never mentioned as bands that help shape treash metal. Can't spell one word
I know the pain of the spelling thing lol but I get it - they definitely deserve some mentions too. Thanks for the comment bro
😄
Dude if your dog scratches my car that will be the last thing it does
See, now I'm the opposite but there's a reason for that. Some people have nice cars. I drive an old beater that looks so crummy that a dog getting on top of it and scratching it would make it look slightly better. So I'm all about the dog but then again I own a shih Tzu so that might account for something. Anybody hurts my shih Tzu there will be hell to pay.
Thanks for the awesome lyrics Dave, it was all you, Metallica,s freekin awesome but Megadeth rules .
😅
I bet it was hell to make it for a band's first album. Just because your record label is in the other side of the country doesn't mean you have to go there to record an album.
I knew some kids in my town who acted like they were a punk band, yet they traveled, *by plane,* to another state just to record their first 5 or 6 song demo even though they could have recorded it here. 😂😂😂😂 Bands do stupid things sometimes.
If boggles my mind too - especially if they were to do it nowadays that would just be ludicrous. Back then studios were pretty limited so they had to find the best studio for the lowest price. Nowadays it's all on computer so a lot better options are there.
