      @@deanmadden123 If you read the book of revelation it's a little unclear on the actual names of the four horsemen. Especially depending on the translation. It actually only names Death. "The Lamb broke the fourth seal and I heard the voice (the horsemen) say: Come. I looked and Behold, a pale horse: and he who sat upon it's name was Death, and Hades (the Greek god of hell) was fallowing behind him. Authority was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to Kill with War, Pestilence, and Conquest." Revelation 6:7-8

    Its been mentioned about who the four horsemen are. James Hetfield, the lead singer, and Dave Mustaine, were raised Christian. Many of Metallica's songs are based upon Bible stories. Not always entirely accurate and not pushing his faith, or lack of, upon the listener. They seem to gravitate towards the darker Bible stories. Their best Biblical song is "Creeping Death". That is the story of the Jewish Passover.

    The reason this "sounds different" is because this is one of the Mustaine songs. The breakdown interlude that is slower is nothing but Sweet Home Alabama by Skynyrd.

    A lot of metal uses biblical and religious literature.
    The four horsemen of the apocalypse from the book of revelation, the 4 riders appear on the earth to bring about the "end times".
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four_Horsemen_of_the_Apocalypse
    There are varying interpretations of the names of the riders, in the song Metallica chose:
    Rider 1: Time, Taking it's toll on you...
    Rider 2: Famine (Hunger)
    Rider 3: Pestilence (Means Plague or Sickness)
    Rider 4: Death (X)
    Also just for fun, Metallica has often referred to themselves as the 4 horsemen (at least in the early days), or been referred to by fans/media.

    When you're ready to step back in time, take us back to the late 70's overseas to Ireland! A friend introduced me to the music and I didn't pay it much mind then. I love it now of course. The band - Thin Lizzy! Their bass guitarist and lead vocalist was Phil Lynott. Hopefully you'll watch their video that goes along with the song. Best songs would have to be ..... JAILBREAK, The Boys are Back in Town, and Dancing in the Moonlight. My personal fav is The Boys are Back in Town so maybe react to that one first. Jailbreak is rowdy and Moonlight is pretty mellow.

    I watch all your reactions. What I think Lex likes the most about the metal bands, with guitarist with the 'flair' she loves, is the brain tickle it obviously gives her. Sometimes I think she is experiencing a drug type of feeling. Euphoria or something.
    Absolutely makes me love my metal even more seeing it through eyes like these.

      Even though Mustaine didn’t play on “Kill Em All” he has writing credits on multiple songs including this one; he gets paid every time someone streams the song or buys the album. Not sure about the ‘without his permission’ thing, but I bet he likes cashing those checks.

    This song has very strong Black Sabbath influences. There's the heavy main part of the song (think Children of the Grave riff but Symptom of the Universe structure), and then the calmer softer B-part (like in Symptom of the Universe, Killing Yourself to Live etc). There are also the "yeah yeahs", which is soooo Ozzy. There's middle of the song solo and the ending solo, which Tony Iommi also loves.

  • @justinatest9456

    Pestilence would be swarms of locusts/plant eating bugs “coming out of nowhere” and eating all the crops and oxygen producing plants. This song is about the biblical apocalypse.
    And if you want Metallica’s vocals to grow on you check out something from the S&M show in 99. Preferably “Bleeding Me” or “Hero Of the Day” for a much different (but just as badass & awesome) side of Metallica.

    • @nicedreams6010

      Pestilence means plague, disease, or sickness. You might be confused because of the common idiom "Plagues of Locusts", as in being plagued by swarming locusts. But pestilence itself means disease.

    Man, Lex looks so happy when she's listening to Metallica. I never really noticed before Lex pointed out the riff, but it kind of sounds like it's imitating horses galloping. You two should try out some Megadeth too. Dave Mustaine, the lead singer used to be in Metallica and played on this song. My favorite is "Sweating Bullets".

      I went to this show In Oakland, CA in 92 (Sept IIRC). G&R was an hour late showing up on stage by the time they got there, the crowd had revolted, and tore up the entire lawn/outfield and a dirt clod war ensued. I was up in the stands and saw the fracas, it was like watching bats swarming over the crowd there was so much dirt clods flying.
      The city of Oakland sued G&R because they had to replace the entire outfield.
      Lead singer of Metallica James Hetfield suffered a bad burn injury on his arms during a show on that tour - he mistimed where he was, or the wrong fire jet burst but he was in the blast of it. They postponed the concert several months but James still didn't play guitar due to his injuries - they had a stand in for his rhythm guitar piece though I cannot remember now who it was. After an encore James came out strapping and played guitar on Enter Sandman to finish his set. Then after getting our asses kicked for 2 hours by those awesome songs, the crowd had to stand for over an hour while amped and tweeking waiting for Axl. Also, the third (opening band) was supposed to be Faith No More, but after the postponement, Faith No More was replaced by Ice T's metal band Body Count. I would have preferred Faith No More.

When you crinkle your nose & your eyes squint, it just kicks up the cute-o-meter up a few notches. Brad on the other hand is the serious one, critiquing every note & sound. You can tell by his eyes he's deep in concentration. Together they make a beautiful couple. Love, love, love the fact that you both rock out to heavy metal!
