@Jacob Andersson His approach to Orion is very “un-bassist”. Cliff’s attack is more like a guitarist here, as if that was his true calling.

My two older brothers used to call me “strange” & “unique” because I loved (love) this band, they'd always ask why I liked them so, my answer was simple and always the same... “If you can't hear it, then there's no need for me to explain it to you.” Lead guitarist Kirk Hammett was only one of the many reasons I picked up the guitar... I loved, and I absolutely love the sound(s) one can makes while playing the instrument, you truly become one with it! Your reactions to songs are both sincere and beautiful. Thank you for being you!

It takes you on a journey- on a roller coaster ride through time and space- memories from the past- good times, more simple times, friends long gone, places you’ve visited- childhood-a trip through time- and your brought back to our time near the end with the original opening and message “your alive for a reason- there is much to do-keep on keeping ON” Your reaction is absolutely spot on, and I completely understand.

The beautiful thing about Metallica's instrumentals is that you can interpret the meaning of the song in any way you want. The songs take you on a journey, but where that journey leads is up to you. There are two other amazing instrumentals on the albums before and after this one. The first is The Call Of Ktulu and the other is To Live Is To Die, and both are just as good as this one.
