- You guys told me to start listening to Metallica's first album 'Kill Em All' so that's what I'm doing! You can see how much they progressed through each album they did. It's even hard to believe how young these guys were when they released this album. The talent is just unmatched.
Here's my reaction to hearing Metallica - The Four Horsemen for the first time. I hope you enjoy!

No way, a song from this album is the best advice you could have considered man, kill 'em all is something magnificent
Another banger from this album is whiplash.....basically a song about metallica thrashing it up 😈 🔥 👌
I love Whiplash, but I've always thought that "Metal Militia" was the hardest, thrashiest banger on this album.
Acting like a maniac!**WHIPLASH!* 🤘🏼
Can't stand it when people listen to whiplash without (Anesthesia) - Pulling Teeth these two are one song to me
Seek and Destroy, Whiplash, Motorbreath and this one. So many legendary songs on their first album
Had a shop air compressor once. That upon starting it's charge cycle sounded just like the intro to Motor Breath. Constantly having to listen to that song due to this machine 😂😂
Hit the Lights too fr
Next song from this album should totally be "hit the lights" It's so underrated and gives u such an adrenaline kick
I agree, it’s probably my fav Kill ‘Em All tune
HELL YES!!!
Not remotely underrated.
Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth)
You nailed it! That Sweet home Alabama riff was intentional! They've talked about being big Skynyrd fans and slipping that into a song. Good ear kid 🤘🏼
It was actual Mustaine that wrote that riff, but yah, he said he ripped it from Skynyrd. Love this album!
Mustaine played the riff as a joke and Lars was like WOAH WHAT'S THAT USE IT.
It’s crazy that metallica doesn’t play that riff for that reason anymore at shows. I think they wanted to pay tribute
I feel like how similar the riff is, people tend to exaggerate that. Metallica/Mustaine definitely made it sound different enough that it isn’t totally obvious. Not as obvious as “Fade to Black” paying homage to “Goodbye Blue Sky” by Pink Floyd, or the obvious riff from Master Of Puppets that was inspired by David Bowie’s “Andy Warhol.” I’d say those ones are definitely more obvious than the “Sweet Home Alabama riff” from The Four Horsemen.

This was my intro to Metallica. 1983. ....14 years old... We knew then... they were going to take over the world. Completely unstoppable.
It's impossible to overstate how important this album was. They were so young and so talented. It's the first vinyl I ever bought as a kid and I LIVED it. Incredible record. This & Exodus' Bonded By Blood are the thrash classic firsts, followed by Megadeths Killing Is My Business & Overkill's Feel The Fire.
Enjoy bro. Classic tuneage 👌
yer, liked Exodus very much !
A lot of folks forget about Exodus. Another good band from that time. Haven't listened to an Overkill album since the late 80's. Never hear anyone reacting to D.R.I. or Sacred Reich either for matter.
I'd add Slayer's Show No Mercy as well and dare I say Merciful Fate's EP Nuns Have No Fun
both excellent at that time, got both vinyls@@user-vh2ui7wm8y
this album is a bona fide game changer, there is literally before and after Kill 'em All metal eras
Now you need to see how Dave Mustaine used this same riff in Megadeth’s “Mechanix”.
Yes, it is Dave’s riff that he wrote while in Metallica.
Dave can write riffs, but not songs.
@@FaceEatingOwl I'd say that few last albums of Megadeth are much much better than few last albums of Metallica, which really are just a bunch of random riffs put together
@@757foks I would totally agree actually. I don't like a single song from the latest Metallica album. First time ever.
The last few Megadeth albums have some bangers. Don't know if that's Dave or band mates though. Either way 🤷♂️
@@FaceEatingOwl Dave has written some excellent songs.
He’s the head of Megadeth - the band responsible for some of the greatest thrash songs ever written.
@@FaceEatingOwl Dave absolutely can write songs, he has written some of the best metal songs out there.
Never heard anything like metallica until there was metallica, remember listening to it when it came out & my brother & I just mouth open, mind blown! So proud to be able to say I was there from day 1, so proud of them, they are the soundtrack of my generations lives🤘
This was released in 1983!! … this shooked the metal world… the rest is history🤘🤘
Metallica in the 80s and 90s is absolute perfection
Yep, up to the departure of Jason. I ate and slept Metallica since this record. Nothing against Rob, but I was done with them after he joined.
80s, not 90s
@@slipknot67891990 is good too
You can feel Dave Mustanes writing all over this album especially on the 4 horsemen
Not really.
Agred, that is why this is their best, because Mustaine influence
Absolutely Dave write this song and 3 other on this album
@@zzasboa 😂😂😂😂
@@__blue--blood__7857 including metal militia, the best song on the album!
Top 3 Metallica track for me. Absolutely love the galloping momentum.
You have to check the Seattle 89 version of this track (or San Diego ‘92). Absolutely killer.
The first guitar solo in this is arguably one of the best metal solos ever I think
I would argue the ending one is also🤷♂️
@@blitz3643 yes don’t get me wrong, both are great, but I like the first even more
@@Pingkonkit's funny. I always thought the same but since I've been watching these reactors and listening to it again I've realized just how awesome the ending is. The entire song is epic.
For Metallica yeah, definitely not all of metal. It is funny how it’s played over sweet home alabama though.
You can hear Dave Mustanes fingerprint all over this .....
As someone who loves Megadeth from what you've heard of them, this is one of the songs Dave Mustaine wrote while in Metallica and is also given a credit on this album. On Megadeths debut album there's a song called Mechanix which is the same guitar riffs played a little faster with different lyrics.
Mechanix is such a letdown compared to Horsemen IMO. Too fast, too messy, worst lyrics ever. But Dave had to speed it up from the original demo version to be faster than Metallica.
@paulgrudowski4383 Mechanix was the original song. James and Lars slowed the tempo, added some chord progressions and changed the lyrics.
@dazed1nyc540 I know it was the original, but you are slightly wrong. The demo version of Mechanix and final version of Horsemen are almost the same speed. Dave sped the final version of Mechanix up significantly because he wanted to be faster.
@paulgrudowski4383 yeah, either way I don't disagree, i think it sounds sloppy sped up also. I feel like Cliffs performance on Horsemen is vastly overlooked as well. Wouldn't shine through as much if played on Mechanix
Dave’s song is horrible compaired to Horseman thank god they made the changes.
One of the tracks on this album is a bass solo called "Anesthesia, pulling teeth" There is a live version on youtube from Chicago, I believe. You have to watch that, it is guaranteed to melt your mind!
Yeah, the live version of Anesthesia from Chicago 1983 is a must 🤘
❤❤😢 Cliff Burton. Was lucky enough to see him play Anaesthesia before that tragic day. RIP.
They were about your age when they recorded this album. It’s amazing to hit that level of musical maturity on your first album and they killed it.
@jamiepuente481 Hi Jamie, Kill Em All was released on July 25th,1983. I'm pretty sure James, Cliff, Lars, & Kirk were between 19 & 20 years young. 🤘
@@carolynm.7530 Most of the songs were made in 1982 so they were really 18-19. Cliff was a few years older.
Yeah most of them were young, Megadeth, Exodus, Testament I would say aswell and Slayer ofcourse
@vashtalelq So true that they were ages 18 to 19 before the release of Kill Em All. Cliff was born a winter baby. Feb. 10th, 1962. RIP🤘
They killed it all
Personal favorite song from this album, Anesthesia (Pulling Teeth). Cliff is a bassist that metal bassists should study if they want to truly play. One of many amazing bassists in metal just so sad we lost him too soon.
Please react to The Call of Ktulu!! The closer to Ride the Lightning and one of the most menacing pieces of music ever!! Such an amazing story told musically
Just found you in the last few days. Wanted to tell you that I'm 50 years old and I've been a HUGE Metallica fan most of my life. I appreciate your reaction to my favorite band. You, as what I would consider a young man, really bring some really great insight to the bands transitions through the years. You make me think about nuances about them that I never thought about or perhaps recognized. Thank you man!! Keep it up fucker! 🤘🤘
All I can say is that I wish that everybody knew just how big Metallica was back in the 80s from back in the day and when these albums dropped...I was there and it was crazy times ..that is all I have to say
I was also there, we are lucky to be alive after all that.
Kill Em All was in-part written by Dave Mustaine & was recorded in a cruddy studio in Ny. Ride the Lightening has some of Mustaine’s work in it but was mostly written by Hetfield, Burton & Ulrich & was recorded at Sweet Silence Studios in Denmark.
The whole album was recorded in Rochester
@@emt5330 which is in NY..
Hi! I’m a 53 year old woman, and this is my ALLTIME FAVOURITE! I have it as my ringtone too! I’ve been honoured to see them 5 times! Enjoy little brother! 🤘🏻🇨🇦🤘🏻
I'm 54... Four friends from Houston call each other the four horsemen.
We lost one 2 years ago.... this is how we rock 🤘
This is it, man. This is the album that made me a Metallica fan for life, and this is one of the songs that did it. You're in for another wild ride with this one. There isn't a single song I dont love on this record. To the point that I have trouble picking a favorite, but "No Remorse" is probably it for me. It's SUCH a heavy, crunchy song, and it has some surprisingly deep, powerful bass for a metal song from this era. Especially right at the beginning. Looking forward to seeing what you think!
Never understood why this Album ranks so low on so many Metallica lists, I absolutely adore this album
Absolutely agree. Reminds me of high school days.
@markuslausen me either! Back in 86, I was 16 yrs old, had just barely discovered Megadeth's "Peace Sells" album, and instantly loved it. Shortly after that , I heard 2 Metallica songs in passing, Battery and Master of Puppets (brand new songs at the time), and I'm embarrassed to say, wasn't really grabbed by them at first. To my young and inexperienced ears, I thought they sounded almost more punk than metal. So I was originally a Megadeth fan and thought they were the heaviest thing I'd ever heard. Then I heard Kill 'Em All while riding around in a car with friends and was completely blown away. We listened to that cassette, playing in a loop over and over all day long, and I loved every minute of it! From that moment, I was ALL about Metallica! I HAD to get that album. I ended up wearing out 3 cassette tapes for Kill 'Em All and fell in love with the rest of their library. I've been a huge fan ever since.
great reaction mate, ive not listened to this album for like 20+ years so gave me goose bumps to sing along with it so thankyou.
can i make a few suggestions for the next new music monday please............
the time has come for you to meet machine head and it must be the 1st track off their 1st record called davidian, machine head are one of the rare bands that peak with their 1st album when usually a band will take 3+ albums to peak. machine head came into the world in 1994 with the album burn my eyes and it was nothing short of perfect, great riffs,great drums,great solos and the production was on point.
they have changed their style many times over the years (sometimes good/sometimes bad) but this album was their masterpiece in my opinion, im not a hater of their other stuff im just a big lover of their 1st album..............oh it must be the music video please for full on 90''s retro awesomeness.
the next new band i would like you to try is fear factory, you mentioned in the pantera im broken reaction that you liked the melodic vocals aswell, well fear factory mix clean singing with metal vocals and have been a major player since the very early 90's. you wont get guitar solos from them but you will get killer drums, they use alot of samples and sound effects aswell and are very industrial.
everyone will say replica but please dont as its been done like 10 million times, start with zero signal, it has a brilliant mix of clean/heavy vocals and some killer sound effects in it aswell. best way to describe fear factory is if a group of terminators started a band it would be fear factory :)
Easily the best song on the album and still top 10 Metallica imo, this song became a blueprint for future epics.
I have been *waiting* for this one to come up. Now you need to add The Mechanix by Megadeth to the queue. Those two songs side by side encapsulate the differences between Metallica and Megadeth better than anything ever will. The writing sounds different on this album because Dave Mustaine wrote a good portion of it. This song in particular. You can check the liner notes on the album, and Dave has writing credits on several songs.
Cliff was a genius. The bass sounds like a third guitar.
Thanx for your reactions👍
Feels like I'm hearing these songs for the first time, too.
Still flashed everytime.
Metal helps, heals and is complete underrated.
Cheers from Germany once again 🤘🇩🇪👏
Metallica was never the same w/o Cliff in my opinion. RIP
Actually, I think it was Dave Mustain from Megadeth, who played that Sweet home Alabama part. As a joke, then they liked it and kept it in the song.
Allow me to recommend Metallica’s concert in Seattle back in August 1989 - it was included in their live box set released in ’93 and the Seattle show in particular has become the stuff of legend... and as a kid raised in that era, I can confirm it
Been commenting this for weeks/months now. This lad will be absolutely blown away by Seattle ‘89; maybe the greatest live set ever performed & recorded.
I know he did Creeping Death form Seattle a while ago, but he would almost certainly enjoy reacting to the entire show! Battery, Four Horseman, One, Harvester, etc. just pure brutality.
the KillemAll stuff is always the best in concert. Seek and Destroy and whiplash seem to be the encores of the later shows I went to. I havent been to any of their geriatric tours, Jason was bassist when I last saw them. and it turns out Jason is by far the coolest of them, and you could see that in their own Binge and Purge video way back in the day and every recent interview with Jason shows what an amazing person he is.
You should have started with Hit The Lights. Its the 1st song on the album. Its a rip-roaring adventure and reconized as very first ever thrash metal song in history. Thats the game changer for all underground metal in the 80s.
Four Horsemen is the 2nd song. Another great one. Just listen to the whole album. Its classic.
very good MollyBoy, you are almost at the 20k subs mark, you made the second track on the album, now you need to react to the first track on this album which is "Hit The Lights" the first Thrash Metal song in the Band's History, go on forward Friend!
This was the 1st Metallica album I heard back in the 80's. Smacked me in the face & I wanted more! Lol
Also 1st heard the Beastie Boys. It was a great time for music ❤
One of my favorite albums of all time!
R.I.P. Cliff we can't forget the LEGEND HIM SELF
This album changed the world. Literally.
At a time when I didn't know what I wanted musically, a friend lent me this album. This track is the one that got me into thrash (even though it's pretty mild, thrash-wise). I've headbanged so hard to that damn riff!
I still have my vinyl record of this album that I bought when it came out in the early 80s when I was around 12 years old 🤘🤘
This album came out in 1983 and the guys were 19/20 - The track is one of the 4 songs co- written by the original guitar player Dave Mustaine who went on to form Megadeth- He was fired before Kill Em All was recorded though
Amazing album...
Time,famine, pestilence, death... I use to love playing this on the guitar.. enjoy
Molly Boy, you should get a Guitar and play your heart out bro
Please react to "outshined" by Soundgarden, it's a grunge band. I love your videos and would love to see your reaction meeting some grunge bands! :)
And Slaves and Bulldozers, Rusty Cage, Room a Thousand Years Wide
Metallica singer, guitarist James Hetfield & bassist Cliff Burton were both 20 & drummer Lars Ulrich & guitarist Kirk Hammett were both 21 when this was released.
The absolute amazing thing about that album is all those guys were 17 and 18 years old at the time!!!!! That’s a pretty incredible album to write at that age!
Nice call on Sweet Home Alabama. Their original lead guitar player (Dave Mustaine from Megadeth) jokingly played Sweet Home Alabama and Lars loved it so they kept it in the song.
My favorite Metallica song followed closely by Whiplash. Kill Em All is my favorite Metallica album, I bought it on its release date in ‘83, and it changed my life. I still own the vinyl.
Jump in the fire is my favorite song from this album
I watch any song you react to because I like your personality tbh you are chill as hell
I'm glad I found your channel ....I like your reactions ....and welcome to the metal and Metallica family 🤘
The Megadeth version of this song is called Mechanix... and it's way faster and different, but you can tell Dave Mustain wrote the riff. It's worth a listen! I love both versions.
This song is like wine...no matter the years passes on and it gets better!!
When you listen to this song like me more than 2 thousand times you always discover something new..
Yes, Please do St. Anger. I love discovering these albums with you😊
Haven't heard " Trapped under Ice " from the album Ride the Lightning... killer song
You have to react to Battery and Master of Puppets live in Seattle 1989‼️ That entire concert they play the songs even faster than the original studio songs. It’s Metallica at their peak.
Just turned 20 when they recorded this 19 when they wrote the songs with strong help from Mustain he was 2 years older - He wrote 4 songs including alot of guitar parts including all the solos for this one
We all cherish this album😜
This song started my addiction to Metallica back in middle school.
Wrote this in their late teens or early 20s. They are now in their early 60s and still play this live and sounds amazing still. They are unreal. You need to see them live
Hit the lights on this album is awesome. Well, the whole album is awesome!
Idk how much history you know, but Dave from megadeth wrote a lot of this song. Funny enough he added in “sweet home alabama” in part of it, he still laughs about it today. Technically the first solo is soloing over the riff to sweet home alabama.
Whiplash and this song are the first two songs I ever heard by Metallica and I was hooked
Here we go. I’ve been waiting so long for this reation
Ponder this Molly boy they were boit 20 when they recorded this..magnificent..cheers from Kansas city
Kings of the switch up/down and sideways! Wrote a new rulebook for making music.
Great song but you really really need to check out the unforgiven a.s.a.p
Also this album is pre - James's balls dropping 😅 his vocals are great 👍
Great reaction dude!
You are very welcome Mollyboy...so glad you got around to doing this.. cheers brother... Just subscribed.
It's a song about the time when the whole band had really sore throats - The four hoarse men - It's amazing how young they were, James (19), Lars (19), Kirk (20), Cliff (21) - it's a surprisingly mature album! 👍
I wish James's voice sounded like on the RTL and MOP albums. This and "metal militia" are my favourite tracks.
Absolutely loving your Metallica journey 🤘 I’ve been a Metallica fan since being a teenager. This was (Kill ‘em All), the ultimate metal journey 🤘👍 Also, see them live 7 times live. You gotta see them live mate
A lot of people say the first 4 are the best, and they are really really good, but don’t discount everything after that. The black album catapulted them into the mega famous stratosphere, and for good reason. You already reacted to ‘wherever I may roam’ off that album and it really resonated with you. Load and reload have some absolute gems as well
Exciting, so close to hit the lights 🤘🏻
The middle part actually IS their version of the Sweet home Alabama riff. It's a reference on purpose.
Spot on, Dave Mustaine (now Megadeth) wrote most of the songs on Killem All and some of the songs on Ride the LIghtning. Look at the credits.
I love watching a new metal fan being created.
Hell Yeahhh! This is where it starts my friend! Balls to the wall or nothing at all ! 🤘
Right! Sweet Home Alabama was a reference. James clarified it some time later.
I've been waiting for you to experience this one! It's a gem.
Metallica is the GOAT of medal, period.
You've reacted to one song from this album already: Seek and Destroy. You reacted to a recent live performance of it
I'm so glad you have gotten to this album- it was life-changing in the 80s-it gave pure adolescent anger and aggression a voice like never before. I really enjoy watching your reactions as you experience these classic thrash albums- (you should check out some of the early stuff from Death Angel too!)
Good metal is something that can bring a lot of good men together. It seems to help us connect and find common ground. Much like a good campfire in the cold wilderness.
love how the drums sound like hooves at gallop
MollyboyTV, the look on your face at 11:25 when you had that “WTF was that sound” moment. That was the legendary Cliff Burton on his bass guitar. You need to check out bass solo track from this album, Anesthesia(Pulling Teeth).
Mann I am really happy that you did checked out ' Kill 'em All as it is my most listened whole Album by Metallica, it's their first one and certaintly has its own flavor to it ; Thank you so much for liking it, Mate! 😎
Their first album from ‘83. They were kids, your age, man. This is arguably the first proper thrash album. It changed the metal and hard rock landscape.
The "B" solo in the slower section sounds like that because Kirk recorded two variations of that solo. They couldn't decide which one they liked better, so they used both, hence two guitars at the same time. Personally I prefer the one on the left channel. You can pan right and left and hear each.
😂 omg the look on your face @11:50 of "will it ever stop?" Made my day
When you feel that energy live then you know why we have mosh pit’s 🤘
Don't forget to listen to the Bass solo that was usually played before this on the album. The two were usually played together on the radio.
I'm sorry! That solo came before "Whiplash" on that album. My bad.
Plenty of James' "YEAH-YEAH!" on this album, love it, he doesn't really do that anymore
thank you for making me revisit this one! I was very late to the party when I heard this in the 90's when a friend of mine made me a "best of MetallicA" tape and I liked this one! and from time to time I listened to the album after but, today I felt I liked it even more! don't know why? anyway! thanks again! suggestion Mondays eh? how about a band called Everything Everything with their "No reptiles" song? (maybe you've heard it? they're an English art rock band from Manchester) that song was hooked into my hears for days when I discovered them in 2016! plus that whole album (Get To Heaven) is amazing! love the band too! but it's VERY different from metal and more on the side of Radiohead sometimes! don't know what you would think of it? 🤔they're thinking outside of the box for sure! have fun!🙂
Fucking love this song
Dude - your reaction was excellent!! Just subbed. Enjoy!
Thanks for the sub!
Thee changes of rhythms here are gonna drive you insane they were very young and talented ...glad you doing this ...
A highlight of their live box set, Binge & Purge, is this song performed in San Diego. During the middle eight when the new riff is introduced, Lars leaves one drum set and runs across the stage to another one, just in time to come back in to the song. It was pretty cool.
You'll hear Hetfield's progression as a vocalist very clearly by the time you get to "Unforgiven"!!
I really want him to react to the unforgiven, it's a beautiful song
You need to check out this whole album. This album introduced me to heavy metal. The whole album kicks ass!
