FIRST TIME HEARING Metallica - Leper Messiah (REACTION)

[@moviemetalhead]

This dude listens to his audience. Super stoked you liked this tune, man. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@StaxReacts]

Thank you so much

[@WonderMommaOG]

Yes, he is extremely wise in his reaction decisions. 😅

[@KarlXByrne]

Kinda. Still not seeing the Sabbath love, But he is a Diamond Geezer.

[@WonderMommaOG]

@@KarlXByrne He will definitely get to it, no doubt.

The lead singer James Hetfield lost his mom to cancer at 16. She was a Christian scientist and refused medical treatment claiming god would heal her.

[@StaxReacts]

Omg RIP🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@KarlXByrne]

I lost my left testicle to cancer, true story, and didn't die because of some weird religious cult. Mother Theresa denied pain relief to those in her care but got jacked up with Vitamin M when her time came. Don't trust history, ask questions! Challenge everything, unlike Rage against the Machine who rolled over like bitches in the last 5 years.

[@governorboltz]

Metallica's song The God That Failed from the Black Album goes into this as well.

[@taralee1313]

He didn't

[@mztweety1374]

​@@taralee1313he actually said so.

Thanks for this one and for going back to the Master of Puppets album. I look forward to more. 💜💜

best metal album of all time. I suggest damage inc from the same album🤟

One thing I love about early Kirk Hammett lead guitar licks is that they harbour a strong blues element. It sounds like the guitar is in pain.

Rest in peace, Cliff Burton. Cliff Burton and Kirk Hammett drew cards to see who was going to get the bunk on the tour bus. Cliff drew the ace of spades, got the bunk, and died in it when the bus hit a patch of black ice and crashed.

James Hetfield is an incredible vocalist. Great great song. ~ C 08 - 24

[@KarlXByrne]

Happy Easter to you and your family. Great reaction. I grew up a metal head. Black Sabbath (they still love you by the way, but Geezer Butler's starting to give you a bit of stink for taking way to long to get on with the show) AC/DC and Iron Maiden. All bands that were around before these fine young upstarts came about. When I listen back, I go to my "back in the day guys" but you've helped remind me how awesome Metallica is (It didn't take much). When I started DJ'ing in the early 2020's I played Funk and Soul, and then I started running Burlesque and Cabaret shows from 2009 onwards in Dublin with lots of 30's 40's and 50's music (mostly 40's) but have always been a Metal head in my Heart. My Brother, I love your reactions, Beastie Boys Head for life, and I know you can't listen to all at once, but I am gonna keep on trying to harvest that Soul, for the Lord. I am a Reverend after all. Listening to Black Sabbath after forever will assure you it is not for Satan I am harvesting, but War Pigs first preferably (not with the fan made video, but with lyrics is fine). Be well Brother, from the city that Faught an empire at Easter, in 1916 ( That's the British I'm talking about and we lost on that occasion, but less than a decade later we became a Republic). Also I'm at the arse end of a mushroom trip, last time was 18 months a go.

[@dirtmcgirt5041]

Metallica - Damage inc. next please, this is a fast song😉

[@timothymatthews1054]

Or if u want to hear Horses Running,, do The Four Horsemen off of their KILL EM ALL album. 🤘

[@StaxReacts]

🙌🙌🙌

[@jeremystanton382]

Do all the studio versions first. You can start with Hit the Lights on Kill'em All and go in order through the first 5 albums. There are no songs worth skipping. Then you can hear their progression as a band.

[@StaxReacts]

🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@StanCostello-q3o]

You need to do this whole album! Please’ every song is great! Then do their first album “kill em all” and the album “ride the lightning “ if not please please do some songs from their 1989 Seattle concert!

[@StaxReacts]

🙌🙌🔥🔥

[@ArthurDentt-l6j]

Since you’ve dipped into a bunch of Metallica I think you should check out something from Kill ‘Em All, their first album. They’re pretty much still kids and figuring it out but it goes hard! Whiplash is a great song from that album or Four Horsemen. Rock on bud!! 🤘🏻

[@StaxReacts]

Will do after this album

You gotta check out Trivium, Avenged Sevenfold, or Five Finger Death Punch, if you wanna keep it old school then you can’t go wrong with Iron Maiden

And also you should do the whole kill ‘‘em all album. It’s the thrashiest metallica album

[@markherrick2180]

James Hetfield's childhood was very religious. However, it is ironic that the Christian Science Church, to which his mother belonged, denounces science, yet includes it in their name. His mother refused to take medicine and died a painful death. James is not attacking religion but is criticizing churches that manipulate people and take their money. He is using their own words against them. It's important to note that his criticism is not directed towards clean congregations of any religion.

[@sharleneemerson6357]

This song talks about false prophets or deceitful pastors that take advantage of believers for their own gains.

Exactly

Listen to the four horseman

Good reaction not to much talking about religion. When you go on with your rock journey i think black sabbath can do something for you. Especially when you like it groovy

This is literally the weakest track on the album. Who you getting your suggestions from?

[@moviemetalhead]

There are no weak tracks on this album.

[@StaxReacts]

I’m doing song by song, rather anyone thinks it “weak” or not

[@TubeSteve420]

@@moviemetalhead I never said it was “weak”. I said it was the weakEST song. There IS a difference. And if it’s so damn amazing, why do they NEVER play it in concert?? Even the band themselves know it’s not that great.

[@house9Tube]

It’s a deep cut for sure, but they last played it in November, 2023 and multiple shows before that on 72S tour, so they know its a great song - would top most metal bands entire discographies

[@TubeSteve420]

@@house9Tube You’re entitled to your opinion, but that is a ridiculous exaggeration.
