1988 James Hetfield - Vicarious (Tool AI Cover)

Made using RVC, Audacity and Davinci Resolve

this is a lot better than I though it was going to be

[@Sentienthermostat]

It's like some weird alternate universe where Metallica went in an even more progressive direction after AJFA.

[@kristopherthomas7166]

I was listening to the new versions of AJFA with bass and thinking “this is fucking prog metal….why is this not prog metal?” I wish they would have just kept rewriting AJFA forever.

[@scottashe984]

Could've easily happened had they taken a break from touring. They wanted to play easier music after ajfa because it is demanding live night after night..

[@Behemothius]

@@scottashe984 I think it had to do a lot with Cliff's death. If Cliff didn't die, they would probably go more into prog metal or stoner rock.

[@JJones-cl4dm]

​@Behemothius I agree 100%. Cliff was the one that understood music theory and how to write music the most and I think he was the driving force of the music's direction. I think they would be phenomenal had he lived. Look at how heavy to live is to die is! Cliff wrote that music

[@Sentienthermostat]

This shows just how bad ass James’s vocals were back then. Let’s hear him over Pantera next!
