Loved the riffs you picked for this one! Have to say it's a joy to watch you play! Loved how you finished off the video with To Live is To Die.. everytime I hear that riff I want to weep because of how beautiful it is and I know who it was for.. RIP Cliff
Your list was pretty good, but you're missing just One song Edit: I'm disappointed in all of you for making a terrible pun this videos most liked comment, and my most liked comment ever, its been an honour boys. Here's to the One joke that I have in my catalog.
0:00 - Fight Fire With Fire 0:40 - Harvester Of Sorrow 1:24 - Leper Messiah 1:58 - Damage, Inc. 2:34 - Blackened 2:59 - Disposable Heroes 3:40 - For Whom The Bell Tolls 4:16 - Of Wolf And Man 5:12 - -Human 5:59 - Some Kind Of Monster 6:30 - Devil's Dance 7:02 - Sad But True 7:50 - Shoot Me Again 8:08 - Orion 8:38 - Invisible Kid 9:09 - Bad Seed 9:41 - Eye Of The Beholder 10:22 - The God That Failed 11:00 - The Thing That Should Not Be 12:18 - To Live Is To Die
I think Lepper Messiah is pretty underrated. The first part is so heavy and satisfying to play, while the second one is pure madness on top of which is excellent solo with sweep picking. It's one of my favourite Metallica songs
@@marcint4361 I'm agreed with you When i listen to LM first time i was really suprised by heavyness(?) Then come thrash part and it really kill me ( in a good way) ) Sorry for my bad english(
@Potato Man You're right. I just watched two live performances and Kirk plays it with alternate picking, even though sheet music may suggest, that it is sweeped.
@Black Toof how do you define heavy, then? I judge based on intensity, force and aggression. That's why I think Dyers Eve is their heaviest by a wide margin. It isn't just the speed, but the urgent, chaotic nature and pure anger that created this song.
@@mattjns "CANNOT COPE WITHOUT YOU TWO, UH!" You're absolutely right, my man. Dyers with, or without the bass, is one of the heaviest songs I've ever heard. Everything is so skull crushing.
THIS IS INSANE PLAYING!! the only thing that sounded even slightly sloppy was the damage inc bridge riff doesnt ruin how amazing this video is in general tho!!
Fight Fire with Fire right out the gate, very nice! Amazing guitar work and great list, had some of my personal favorites on there Also, anyone who can play Disposable Heroes blows my mind, that picking pattern man Great work!!
That breakdown riff is nuts is on par with the Domination breakdown riff both are in E standard and for being in E standard they are heavier than a neutron star.
Saint anger is great because it sounds like shit. Its like listening to slipknot as a 10 year old and saying wtf is this, this shit sounds like shit. 10 years later, it is the shit.
@@Chi_Bro_2000 yeah but the re-recorded version ruins the sound effect that the combination of the snare and bassguitar created in Sweet Amber before the breakdown. The snare sound also symbolizes a kind of rebelliousness, like "Fuck whatever the fans might think about it. This is what our therapy sounds like. Deal with it." The re-recorded version symbolises a little crybaby who can't stop crying because he didn't get what he wanted.
Hey bro, can you do a special video showing your equip, like your studio, guitars, pc, amp's, cables and etc. when you reach on 100k subscribers? Also, nice video!
There's nothing to watch bro. I have no the studio. Just my guitar and some equipment you could find in the description but thanks for the support dude!
I listen to brutal slam, deathcore, metalcore, and some traditional death metal... yet im amazed how CRAZY heavy some of the riffs from Ride The Lightning till AJFA are and how they continued to have them yet added even more real song writing and melody somehow on later stuff...crazy stuff!
Who else thinks. Harvester of Sorrow, Eye of the beholder, Thing that should not be, blackened, and damage inc are metallicas top 5 underrated songs (blackened isn’t really underrated but you know)
It's a cool down tuned riff , pity about the vocal melody and 8 minute song length ! There are plenty of riffs on St Anger that had promise , they just needed James in the right head space
Dude, love love love this for multiple reasons: 1 - you shouldnt maybe get flagged because you did your own drums? I hope you don't. 2 - you made your own drums so that means you can play more sections of music! 3 - because of #2, from here on when you make videos you'll be able to include more riffs and maybe even go back and revisit bands you've already done and play more of their songs! Excellent work!

The Mind Is A Powerful Thing When you play the genre for a good length of time (I’ve been playing a lot of these songs for 13 years) they become quite easy. Especially when compared to jazz fusion or prog where you’re using complex chord shapes. These are all in the picking speed and understanding of scales and the power chords relation to them. They take time for beginners to grasp, and they’re very well written and heavy, but very few are technically complex.
@The Mind Is A Powerful Thing well I mean they _are_ pretty easy. One of the first songs I learned on guitar was seek and destroy. Metallica is like beginner level metal riffs same with some real old Slayer. As long as you know how to tremolo and alternate pick you shouldn't have any issues really.
Nice video but you forgot some good and heavy Metallica riffs: Hardwired, Am I Savage, All Nightmare Long, Trapped Under Ice, My Apocalypse, That Was Just Your Live, Broken Beat and Scarred, Dream No More, Confusion, St. Anger and Split out the Bone. You should definitly make part 2.

As Jason Newsted said, The Thing That Should Not Be is "about the heaviest number known to mankind"

The God That Failed is an underrated heavy riff full of emotion. Super glad to hear it on this list along with a bunch of other underrated songs
Its impossible to listen Orion and to live without remembering cliff
I imagine the bass line
About to live is to die,,, what do you mean?
You need to let him go
@@diedunkleseite4450 And you need to piss off somewhere, theres nothing wrong with remembering and honoring someone's memory.
Butthurt!! Nice😆😆😆
why this is so satisfying...
Because we worked our ass out to collect the heaviest riffs from all albums until this man saved our lifetime.
@@rollingdigger19 no it's because of metallica
holy shit Vermillion figured how to use a lightswitch
Cool to see the break down riff in "Damage Inc" was added. Metallica hasn't written a riff like that in a LONG time
Spit out the the bone
That one was Kirk's
My apocalypse bridge
That Was Just Your Life main riff
Yes they have, it's in My Apocalypse
man i love sad but true, one of the best riffs for sure
To Live is to Die is heavy emotionally and musically
Every time when i listen Orion and To live is to die, i remember Cliff ;/
He is my favorite musician
RIP Cliff Burton
@@justinian1999 R. I. P. PRINZ Cliff Burton indeed.
Just Cliff Burton
St Anger.. It is a legit heavy as balls riff that one.
Look closely everyone! He's playing Leper Messiah correctly
But playing the middle riff of Damage inc wrong.
@@alejandrolugo3983 an also to live is to die :( oh well pretty good video still
Not really, he wasn’t palm muting when he was supposed to in the main riff and vice versa.
@@alejandrolugo3983I knew damage inc sounded weird when he played it
I know u bc of the Nirvana video, and now I'm here bc of Andriy, you're a legend man!
He’s a legend friiieeeenddd
Andriy is my boi.
Andriys the Ukrainian frrrriend I didn’t know I needed in my life
THIS IS INSANE PLAYING!!
the only thing that sounded even slightly sloppy was the damage inc bridge riff
doesnt ruin how amazing this video is in general tho!!
no battery? Orion was a great add though.
Conan O'Brien battery is more thrashy, not really heavy
ua-cam.com/video/Ph5vVZJZ1f0/v-deo.html&ab_channel=MetallicaFAN
I’m so glad you put leper messiah. It’s one my favorite songs from Metallica and one of my favorite main riffs.
Sure bro! I love this song too.
Love your Tshirt💪🏻🔥
Maybe it's because I'm an idiot but I had never realized that Damage Inc sounded so much like Repentless. Nice video bro!
Kerry King is a big fan of that song.
Repentless more like Damage Inc.
@@Ryan-eighty-six 0 doubts 'bout it
Other way around
Thank you for including the interlude in To Live is to Die. It would have bothered me to have heard the main riff without the interlude haha.
4:01 my personal favorite Metallica riff
Fight Fire with Fire right out the gate, very nice!
Amazing guitar work and great list, had some of my personal favorites on there
Also, anyone who can play Disposable Heroes blows my mind, that picking pattern man
Great work!!
Nice to see some deeper cuts on this, especially Bad Seed and Devil's Dance.
Glad you like it! Thanks Jack!

Perfect, and your last two songs, To Live Is To Die and The Thing that Should Not Be are on point.
11:57 I could have been listening to that riff all my life...
Name sound please 😲😲
The thing that should not be
Unpopular opinion: St. Anger is a great album, get rid of the snare and it’s good. Edit: keep the snare I’m dumb
You're still in denial: St. Anger is great because the snare! 🖕😂🤘
Ominous it was definitely an interesting addition but I can’t help liking the re-recorded version. It definitely doesn’t sound the same though

I will never forget this band for reintroducing me to metal. Horns up.
Lovely to see these mad riffs played up close. Your a star. Thank u.

You know you nail it when even the subtle finger sliding over the strings match the original record
Love the videos, keep up the great work.
Thanks for the support
That riff at 2:13 is my personal favorite
Hey! That one riff in Sweet Amber!!!!!!
O wait nobody else likes st anger :(((
Fallschirmjäger yea fuck that album🖕
St Anger is a killer album, just exclude that snare and it's great
Nemanja Jovanovic and the vocals
Nemanja Jovanovic imo, the snare adds that angry tone to the songs..
You did those riffs justice. I just subbed. Thanks for the video!

The Mind Is A Powerful Thing When you play the genre for a good length of time (I’ve been playing a lot of these songs for 13 years) they become quite easy. Especially when compared to jazz fusion or prog where you’re using complex chord shapes. These are all in the picking speed and understanding of scales and the power chords relation to them. They take time for beginners to grasp, and they’re very well written and heavy, but very few are technically complex.
@The Mind Is A Powerful Thing well I mean they _are_ pretty easy. One of the first songs I learned on guitar was seek and destroy. Metallica is like beginner level metal riffs same with some real old Slayer. As long as you know how to tremolo and alternate pick you shouldn't have any issues really.
