      ​@@calebleland8390 Cliff Burton was a pillar stone of Metallica. They still talk about him today with so much love. They literally saw him dead under a bus. Less than a year later they where obviously forced into getting a new bass player, into studio and to move on obviously by pressures from record labels or whatever to keep the Metallica machine printing money. It's obvious where all this grief ended up. This album is extremely dark compared to their previous work, and they took their grief on the recording process and on Jason the new guy. This situation alone had obvious consequences, it led Lars to want to go independent on their way of work and thus the switch we see in the Black Album, Metallica decided to go the Black Album way as they mentioned a number of times in A Years a Half and that's why they get Bob Rock, clash imensely with him but they never boot him, they end up following what Bob Rock wanted, they wanted to go commercial and become gigantic to the point that they can decide whatever they want to do with their band. This is clearly seen in Some Kind of Monster, despite all the crap they choose to continue to work they weren't forced into it or to break contracts. They choose to do St. Anger, they choose to do Lulu. They became so big they can do whatever they want. And that is for me the utlimate legacy of Cliffs death.
      I wouldn't be surprised that if Cliff never died Metallica would have become the same size as of Slayer for example and never gaining the popularity they got, obviously. Black Album, Load and Reload and everything afterwards would have never existed and we'd seen a continuation of the style that is present in Master of Puppets to this day.
      The whole way Cliffs death was managed and forced Kirk, James and Lars to move on is the single most defining factor of Metallica and something that still has deep scars in those three guys. Jason was just the pariah of their pent up frustrations with all of this...

    Musically and lyrically, this album was a genius work of art, and learning to play it improved my playing and understanding of riff composition and arranging a million times faster than if I had stuck to less challenging things at the time. Even minus the bass, it will always be my favorite Metallica album, and showed just what was possible in thrash/heavy metal.

  • @kylebrady969
    @kylebrady969 2 роки тому +1

    A song that still remains painfully relevant in the United States and the world in general, 33 years after it was first written and recorded. Justice has been and is lost, r___d, and gone. The interlude and outro are also epic moments on this record (following on from my Blackened reaction comment.)
    I remember one uploader put a kind of commentary on the track; it went along the lines of, "The clean intro is the peace and calm, but as it gets into the heavy parts it represents the cracks spilling through until the song goes full distortion to signify the corruption as being out in the open. The interlude is the politicians, judges, etc. trying to restore the calm from the intro (hence it following basically the same core riff), but it doesn't work so we return to the main riff of the song." Was an interesting angle to look at.
