I don't care what people think about this song. All I know is that Metallica riffs are always so fun to play and this song is no exception

[@Jess_Cozy_Corner]

This is my favorite out of there 3 new ones

[@rkulakowski]

It's always easy to criticize bands but try to write this song like this alone and put in to the world. It's not easy! Thank You for this video!

[@jamessteffen2215]

Thank you for saying this. So many critics, not enough talent.

[@rattlehead999]

I suck and I can beat the main riff, but I don't do drums nor vocals. The new songs have just one key weakness, it's the lazy, boring Main riffs. They pick a Monotone rhythm of open E string, in this case it's 4 triplets add a lick and repeat. Now that's great a single song on the album, sure, but all 3 of their singles are the exact same. Otherwise I'd say the drums are great, better than Hardwired, the song structure is great as always and my favourite part of the singles are the vocals and vocal lines. The vocals + vocal lines are the best vocals since St.Anger or even Reload. They have so much character and are so good. Edit: The chorus riffs are also very dad-rocky.

[@flipperbooch2194]

@@rattlehead999about the dad-rocky part, I always love something to headband to, doesn’t have to be complex, just rhythmic

[@rattlehead999]

@@flipperbooch2194 Yeah, but considering metallica's track record, dad rock wasn't their thing until this album and I personally have certain expectations from them.

Iv been trying to find a tab or sheet music on this since it dropped thanks a lot and for once I think someone covered it the way James plays it I can’t stand people playing them wrong thank you

[@TheEternalFlavour]

Thanks! Is there a part people are struggling with figuring out? lol

[@Vampboi666]

Thank you sooo much for making this amazing Metallica cover of their new song and amazing job as u always do^^

[@iantheotaku3910]

When I get my strings back ima learn this song and commit to learning this solo as a first time learning a solo

[@xander.pierce]

I wonder if Lars spent much time writing the drums on this one. super complex and technical.

[@Erebus1077]

lol

[@Alpharabius99]

lars and kirk sucks

[@RandomPerson-ui3xv]

idk if this is sarcastic or not💀

[@RoofsHobbyGuitar]

Man, people still hold Metallica to some godly standard. The boys just can't have fun 40 years later in 2023 without being canceled for not being technical or fast enough 😂

[@BosGaurus05]

Metallica is way more technical than trivium, dream theather and periphery

[@charlieru399]

I need to learn this!!

[@ThePatrickHoban]

Very nice

[@sommossa7120]

Bravo!

[@JustAMessenger-o7g]

Aw man that initial gallop groove at the beginning needed to go a little longer before the main lick was added. Love those kinds of grooves.

[@jutjub22]

So fun to play, the first song from 72S that I started to play, will see next one, maybe Suicide. And thank you for these great videos. One thing, you could show tabs fo rhythm behind the solo when it is different/new.

[@yonathanTomto]

Excellent video. Could you make a video for Metallica's Welcome Home? 😸❤Por favor

Here's the lyrics: Temptation Temptation Temptation Temptation The beast still shouts for what it’s yearning He stokes the fire, desire burning The never-ending quenchless craving The unforgiving misbehaving If darkness had a son, here I am Temptation is his father If darkness had a son, here I am I bathe in holy water Temptation, leave me be Temptation Temptation Temptation Temptation So paint your eyes as black as sorrow Hide yourself behind tomorrow The nightmares search for infiltration In domination, captivation If darkness had a son, here I am Temptation is his father If darkness had a son, here I am I bathe in holy water Temptation, leave me be Return again to where it’s darkest Dragging home this heathen harvest And all the children subjugated Manipulated, propagated If darkness had a son, here I am Temptation is his father If darkness had a son, here I am I bathe in holy water If darkness had a son Here I am If darkness had a son Here I am If darkness had a son Here I am I bathe in holy water Temptation, leave me be

[@firesoul666]

There it is the brand new single If Darkness had a son, a groovy new track with a sub par Kirk solo, which I am surprised You did. In terms of execution I will give this one 9.5/10 due to the little insignificant offs in the solo. Still bravo for doing it still. Excited to hear the full album next month. Your viewers should be able to learn the song by watching the video incl. the tabs hope this one will get some attention. Make sure to like and subscribe & hit the notification 🔔 for more Metallica Videos coming in April 2023. Keep playing that guitar !!!

[@TheVerM0nster]

Sub par kirk solo? It's great!

[@ocaldini]

I agree, the solo is below average if you compare to what Kirk already built.

[@zerinys6094]

[@manicmurph]

The verse kinda sounds like Gojira That's crazy how Metallica influenced Ghost and Gojira and just about every metal band and now Metallica listens to those bands to get influenced.

[@markosguitar]

How long have you been playing guitar? Your ear-to-learn skills are just super! Keep going!

[@TheEternalFlavour]

About 11 years in total, but seriously for about 5 years!

[@theo-kh8ve]

Someone could tell me what is the black thing at the base of the neck near the first fret? Thank you

[@TheEternalFlavour]

It's a gruvgear fret wrap! I use it mainly to get rid of some of the extra noise that can happen when you play hard on a guitar, like palm muting power chords and such. Maybe you can hear it if you hit a power chord really hard on your own guitar and mute immediately after, you'll hear some high notes coming from the headstock. You can also use it on the fretboard to mute all strings you aren't playing!

[@Marekxxk]

Open EEEEEE does the trick

[@AndreaBucchi-z3t]

Beautiful: what do you use to get a sound like this ? Which pickups do you use?

[@TheEternalFlavour]

These pickups are just EMG 81 in the bridge (which I probably used for the entire cover) and EMG 85 in the neck!

Is there a pdf for the tab?
