    It's amazing how simplistic songwriters they are. They have no real tactics beyond just trial and error and "Finding pieces that connect", you'd think after all these years they'd have a process but its just like getting with your buddies and jamming. Very humbling.

    • @erikrandan7294
      @erikrandan7294 2 роки тому +62

      If I remember, its actually an old airplane hangar that they converted into HQ. I cant think of any musician who wouldnt love to be able to do that! Having their entire operation and history contained in that one space definitely would fuel creativity on a massive level.
      I recall James talking about wanting to take the garage that they wrote Puppets in and moving the whole thing to HQ, only to find out it had been torn down...but then was stoked to learn they saved some of the lumber, so he had Ken Lawrence turn it into his guitar "Carl". Definite mojo flying around there!

      It was the only good track on the 2nd disc and at the same time, the best track on all of Hardwired.
      If it wasn't for Spit out the Bone, the entire 2nd half of the album would be entirely dismissed.

      ⁠​⁠@@TheyCallMeMrMaybeNot to be biased because of my love for the band but I strongly disagree
      Confusion is a track straight out the Black Album I love it
      You should hear the Black Album rework people do with AI James Hetfield, it fits right in.
      Murder One is a great tribute to Lemmy and a badass song
      Here Comes Revenge is awesome (except that horrendous solo. Didn’t like it then, don’t like it now)
      And Obviously the best Metallica thrash song since the 80s (IMO) Spit Out The Bone
      The rest I agree to be dismissible

    And to think, these guys almost broke up during the recording of St. Anger. It's so awesome to see how far they've come and how compatible they are today. The jokes, the camaraderie, the creativity, and the overall vibe was just awesome.
    Some Kind of Monster showed us that St. Anger had basically _none_ of that, and it was so depressing. We were watching a band just tear themselves and each other apart for personal and creative issues between all of them. The biggest obstacle being James' sobriety, trying to recover his life and band from his devastating Addiction. I dont think he laughed or even smiled one time during the whole movie :\
    And now look at them. They just enthusiastically bounce off each other's vibe and ideas the whole time, making great music and most importantly, they're having FUN. TOTAL comeback, both musically and personally. Let's all give these guys a round of applause 👏 Thank God they stuck together! I will never stop loving Metallica! 🤘

    The part where James is explaining to Lars and Rob the concept of "the machine, the greater good...being a part of something but having to give up some individuality for the machine"....that whole quote IS the genius of James Hetfield, and THAT has been what has taken them SO far all these years...true intellectual cerebral genius. I'd love to be inside the labyrinth of that mans brain!! And Lars is exactly the same way as well...that's what makes them such a good band and song writing team...I love it!!!

    • @SisSasSus
      @SisSasSus 7 років тому +53

      True that, but Lars is still contributing to the session, keeping tempo and generally not being a pissy bitch (like back in the early 2000s). I'm not saying that this Metallica renaissance known as "Spit out the bone" was Lars's idea, but I'm just pointing out that Lars is clearly not some kind of burden to bear for the rest of the band, which is a popular belief online. People seem to forget that many of the Metallica classics have been forged with Lars on the lead, and that he's not just some megalomaniac Danish dude.
      EDIT: so in the original comment that I was replying to it was written as "His vision" which I mistook for "Rob's vision", when that was not the implied meaning. My bad for mixing that up
