James Hetfield: Cirice (Ghost Cover) | Metallica Playing Ghost

[@ferrangalvezcastaneda4968]

You know you're a good band when James Hetfield likes playing your music.

[@johnjacob8234]

Well.....he wrote it.

@@johnjacob8234 No he didn't. Lol

[@yammmit]

John Jacob I think he’d be a little better at playing it then.

You can really hear the Ghost influence in early Metallica stuff.

That kinda implies being famous. Maybe not celebrity famous but famous in the right the circles.

When the OG's show that level of respect... you've truly made it.

[@Metallica101ftw]

James actually being the riff master he is, is probably jealous he didnt come up with it himself haha

[@TheGreatGouki]

Metallica101ftw it’s cool seeing him figure out the riff. :)

[@darrenthetuber743]

It always felt like a Ride the Lightning-era riff

[@muhammadirsyazman8389]

This riff is great, but not Metallica type of sound.

[@hoeaz1247]

@@muhammadirsyazman8389 The riff is hugely metallica inspired, I could easily hear this riff at metallicas early albums.

[@johnlee7479]

Jealous? Hardly not,

[@Psicosferico]

If I was Tobias watching this I would freaking cry. To hear such a legend playing and enjoying your riff must feel like heaven.

[@Zeeangelofdeath]

It’s a well known fact that James is a fan of ghost, he’s been gone to their concerts

[@mattbowden1981]

Me too.

Well that didn't look too promising of a good outcome. =)

[@zer0shift72]

Just to Necro this, saw Ghost support Metallica a couple of weeks ago in London.. There was a rumour going around that Papa Het was one of the ghouls, becasue one of them was Hetfield levels of a man, proper fucking unit.

[@TheKartoffel101]

Plot Twist: James played as Member of Ghost

[@Cursed_With_Nightmares]

Ooohhh I feel the presence of monsters yeaahhhh

[@DavidRFIT]

@@jeffloucks2120 Hetfield was learning the song by ear on this video. Hetfield could play a song like Cirice (very cool but pretty simple techique-wise) while doing burpees. Come on people.

[@johnredcorn1131]

must be an amazing feeling to see one of the most iconic guitar players from one of the most iconic bands ever playing your music. Ghost fuckin rules

[@johnjacob8234]

Shhhhh. Het was not a nameless ghoul. Shhh het did not help write Circe.

[@mothvile]

They're not one of. They're staticicall THE most iconic band

[@PinkCow0]

And having him wear your merchandise (James wore Opus Oponymus t shirt) and sorry I’m 3 years late

[@justinbatts8053]

I love the relationship between Metallica and Ghost

[@lucheloco420]

I hope Metallica does another cover album soon, and I hope this is one of the songs they do. "Can you hear the rumble?"

[@staticbuzter452]

CAAN YOU HEAR THE RUMMMBLLLEEAH! That wouldn't be bad I can picture James's vocals.

[@marcthedashergd6321]

I hope they cover this song and probably gojira if they play a fairly easy song.

[@TheGreatGouki]

@@staticbuzter452 I think Met might make it sound heavier too. Their covers are usually REALLY good typically. If they do any Ghost song, and I’m using Merciful Fate as an example, Cirice would be amazing. I’d also think that Ritual and maybe Elizabeth would be pretty good too!

[@TheGreatGouki]

@@marcthedashergd6321 Oh man, Shooting Star would be cool to hear them do.

[@taikamiya8214]

The way Sad But True transitions into it's main riff... that would work perfect for the Cirice riff.

[@blitzinstripes3788]

You know you have "arrived", when James Hetfield plays your riffs.

[@rendyandrian7149]

Tobias really nails the riff for Cirice. James clearly enjoys his time playing a little bit of it.

[@sudan47]

This riff is so freakin badass, even hetfield plays it!!

[@elirhoades9418]

This is so rad. James has such a great reputation in the music industry and just him playing Cirice is an awesome thing to behold and a real honor for ghost fans.

[@meh_cromancer]

Trujilo was playing it on Bass too lol

[@tristancreed]

Man they need to collab on a version of this with Metallica. I can't be the only one who's imagining James' vocals would dial this up to 11.

[@Shiggles115]

Could you imagine being Tobias, watching this, oh my god he would have got an amazing feeling that he has never experienced in his life, that is a true honor!

[@metalheadblues]

James tone has such a bark on those big chords. Living legend.

[@martinmarcos5340]

I can´t imagine being Tobias Forge and watching this video, the joy he must be feeling can´t be described by words.

[@DarkEtherealRhythm]

Goddammit, whats wrong with you people? Metallica fans trashing and talking shit about Ghost and Viceversa. Can we all just be grateful that a legend like James Hetfield and Metallica are enjoying and somewhat promoting the music from newer generations? Thanks to your pathetic low tolerance and living in the past bullshit is the reason that music is dying. Keep it that way and we will continue hearing "Despacito" and similar crap like that.

[@xerowrestling]

Metallica and Ghost are 2 examples of what music is and what music can do for the soul.

[@walterlangkowski4723]

All the haters can eat shit cause guess who’s going on tour and opening up for Metallica ?

[@boshwackhorseperson3762]

A Metallica fan shit talking literally any other band is like the leader of the Crips saying that there needs to be less gang violence

[@rhiannoningram2080]

Plus, Metallica loves Ghost! That's why Ghost is touring with then lmao

[@Ahutch81PKMN]

Fuckin amen brother. I find metal/rock fans are the worst for bashing new music, how are we going to keep it alive when everything gets shot down by the people who are supposed to support it

[@clairerichards4936]

I always thought that this riff had Metallica vibes, it's so cool to see James Hetfield playing it.

[@zeecapeta]

So cool to see an artist appreciating another artist art

[@jesseoreilly1792]

This is how you know you've made it. How many millions of punk ass kids, sat in there rooms learning the riffs to Master Of Puppets, One or Sad but True? Well, now the guy who wrote riffs is playing your riff.

Hetfield is just a monster. Wish I could see ghost open for metallica

They actually did :D I was there at their gig in Moscow!

[@laylaruan]

They did at Slane castle in Ireland, too.

This is the perfect song for them to cover. The riff style sounds like something Hetfield would write. If they do another Garage Inc, I would image this song will be on it.

Sadly not. We know all the identities of the ghouls now. Chances are you're thinking of the rhythm guitarist, Chris Catalyst

I bet he's like, "shit I wish I wrote that. Woulda been perfect in Harvester of Sorrow."

[@louismaynard881]

Please drop a full cover. My god.

[@jellyh6545]

Who else was playing a ghost cover of Circle rather than James Hetfield playing that song in the tuning room?

[@HanseNico]

I'm really relieved, that even musician - professional for decades - still play messy and soggy when just trying around... :D

[@mauristrider]

best riff he ever did

[@cliffthelightning]

That riff always had a classic Mercyful fate vibe to me

[@gulogulo]

[@Arkhariel]

After James played it I could see the real metal potential of this riff, that in Ghost is somewhat hid by the way they chose to produce their songs. This more raw.

[@legend53beast63]

Just odd the first thing Tobias Forge said when asked about James Hetfield playing Cirice is "HE PLAYED IT WRONG." That was his focus the entire time. Love Cardi C.

[@ClickToPreview]

I mean it IS a killer lick!
