Kirk is amazing, so is Dave. End of the discussion.

Hayden Boisvert Fun fact James said on an interview that when they wrote this song he thought "i can't wait to see the Slayer guys reaction"

Of course he is, but I hate people throwing shit to Kirk. Both Kirk and Dave are awesome...

Its hard to believe that only 10 years after this, Metallica were one of the biggest bands in the world, wearing smart clothes with short hair and playing country music

[@monamOneX]

mann these days when James starts playing the riff after the intro it sounds very different with the guitar sound of the intro and the live sound, but look here when James starts playing the riff it sounds badass !

[@PULQB]

Thats because i think they are in different tunings, the intro its in the key of E, and now they play half step down, without tuning the intro half step down

one of the most brutal performances of this song ever and people have been calling them posers for the last 20+ years imagine the irony

[@PrehistoricMagazine]

Agree with you completely I think when they really got going they created some of the most aggressive music of all time and I’m an old school death metal fan so I know my metal. Brutal yet beautiful

[@nickcsu]

Jason held his own on this show. I thought they were playing fast just to mess with Jason, but he did well. I have seen Metallica 8 times and they never played this fast.... WOW

[@rodolforodriguez6230]

Easily.....fucking good ...guitar master...MR. kirk hammet

[@nofatbird]

now that's some kick-ass thrash!

[@xDiscipleOfTheWatchx]

They slowed down for those albums dude. They still stayed heavy. And since then they sped back up. Also there was at least one fast thrashy song on each of those albums. Those are four of my favourite metal albums btw because the song writing was so amazingly good, can't say the same of recent Metallica. I wouldn't care if they did a disco album as long as the songs were well written. Listen to Reckoning Day, Random Acts or Deaths Head compared to St Anger- it's like night & day

[@RodHammett95]

Sad but true... but I respect a lot that they wanted to do something different... They do what they want to do, and they don't care about what the others think of them... for me, THAT'S A THRASH ATTITUDE!

I actually Didnt think it was possible to play this song faster,but okay haha. Great performance

[@BigDLiquor]

@carandcat yeah he died from the tour bus and he made that kick-ass bass in the begining of From Who the Bell Tolls

[@RodHammett95]

both Kirk and Dave use pentatonics, but Dave solos are pretty the same:bending in the 1st string (17 fret for example) he goes up the strings to the 6th, and then he goes down to the 1st, ending with a bending. A lot of solos are like that, at least Kirk solos are a little more versatile (I know the wah wah thing, but solos are different between them). Btw, shreds doesn't mean "shred well" you have to admit Dave is dirty, untidy, just listen no life til leather demo. Kirk did a GREAT job on that

[@DowntownTB13]

@kavendg1 no, ron mcgovney was there first bassist. he recorded the no life till leather demo with them. than he quit and they asked cliff to join. than he died on sept 12 1986 (sob) and then they hired jason, and he left in 2001, than they hired rob in 2004. just thought i'd let you know ;)

[@tonyfondacaro1980]

They had just lost Cliff… can’t even imagine what’s going through their heads right now.

[@ifellawake]

ahhh good ole metallica...

[@nickcsu]

@ohgoditsjames94, I wish I could have seen them back then, my first show was in 96.

[@KJBPSkipper]

Even if you are right......they are still one of the best bands ever.....and maybe if they got jacked up on some ice cold suds,and had some people start some shit to get them angry,and then go play a show..maybe they could get that old sound back...want to go piss them off and then offer them a cold beer or two to say we are sorry,lol!

@DowntownTB13 its all in the amps/pedals you use. if you get some really good ones, you can make just about any guitar sound metal.

[@ohgoditsjames94]

@nickcsu They only played this fast in the 80's, especially after Cliffs Death which caused them to play even faster and with more aggression, Did you ever see them back then?

[@RodHammett95]

Cheers! how we say in my country: Aguante Metallica, Aguante Megadeth!!!!

[@KJBPSkipper]

Very interesting take you have on this,point taken,I still love them as a band,I mean there is nothing in the mainstream garbage pail that is even remotely interesting to me.....

@Brutalyeah jajajaja yes, I know that song. Really good song, one of my favorites of Megadeth... and yes, I think Dave is better songwriter, he has done the most of Megadeth songs (with collaborations of Ellefson, Menza, etc)... anyway both Kirk and Dave are awesome!!!

[@DowntownTB13]

@GBeast2029 well, haha, atleast james and lars, kirk seemed ok mostly

[@jm0069]

@migpedroso haha yeah you always need to realise you should backspace any comment you are about to write when your high

[@slantyrock]

A brutal assault on the ears

[@RodHammett95]

yes, but have you heard that demo? He took that solos as a base and put something of his own, the solos aren't the same, similar but not the same... and I was talking about he did a great job technically. If you hear the demo solos, they sound like shit technically, and I'm not talking about the recording quality, I'm talking about how Dave played them... if you hear Kill Em All solos, they're played extremely good, fast and with an awesome technique... that's what I mean when I prefer Kirk...

[@artem6000]

lol so true i feel bad for lars

[@comand0Metalero1]

1:08 Free song starter

[@Disc1]

@RodHammett95 Now listen to Good Mourning... Black Friday until the vocals start. Kirk was way more awesome in the 80s indeed, but Dave is a way better songwriter :).

[@DowntownTB13]

@migpedroso haha, i was close, i halfed 24, lol

[@xDiscipleOfTheWatchx]

Slayer, Megadeth,Testament, Exodus, Anthrax all stayed true to their roots. Metallica was spoiled my too much money, success and being surrounded by yes men. Even on the Big Four tour the way James talked to the crowd you would think they were only there to see Metallica and that the other bands were the opening acts.

[@allenbass6169]

The other bands pretty much were. Metallica led the way man. Aint nobody on this earth would know Mechanix was a song had not Metallica remade it into a better song and had to listen to Mustaine cry over it ever since. Metallica led the way with going mainstream. The audience got broader and people started giving other bands like Slayer and Megadeth a chance. Metallica is the best. Can't deny that. They led the way and the other bands were following.

[@Joel-xy7qg]

Shut up idiot boy metallica stayed thrash like look at death magnetic they have thrash songs so does hardwired

[@ReVVVern]

@migpedroso dude you are better off buying a guitar thats not a signature. i bought a dean from hell cause i love dime but it is built cheap as hell. a could have got a far better built guitar for half the price

[@thatonedoc13]

Correction: Slayer : Good metal that cant get their shit together for a damn tour.

[@Denshoukiro]

Hmm... Lars really rocked in the 80´s...

[@Leo2112Lion]

Since the damn reply button has been taking away for some unknown reason, I'll say this: xDiscipleOfTheWatchx it's most likely over with Metallica being amazing like they used to be, nowadays they'll just make ordinary heavy rock/whatever is commercial, fusion, "enlightened and mature", polished music and pretend to "push the envelope". I'd say just move on to a band like Maiden if you can get into them and forget about Metallica for now. ***** the reason why Metallica gets so much hate for turning out the way they did is because they mattered so much. they had such a huge cult following in the underground alone prior to the Black album. they where like the first great American metal band, and they where taking the reigns from the older generation like Sabbath and Maiden and Priest and Motorhead and reinventing how metal can be done. their fans got into them because they started all the thrash was going on in the underground, and that they where bashing the crap out of glam and all it's 80s fake, cheesy, typical 80s living-in-the-moment success with no commercialism whatsoever, and believed in them. they believed that they where miraculously going to be the one American band that was going to make it without compromising their music in order to strike it rich and get famous, that they were going to make it by their own strong musical integrity and merit. they where rebels, outlaws, they yeah, never made music to please nobody, and they wrote and sang what they felt, but then, they caved in and made the album that they knew would get sold to all these fucking jocks and meatheads out of nowhere to get successful. they stopped being everything they ever stood for and took the easy way out. they didn't change naturally like you may think so, they changed artificially. they got scared to actually see if they could make it to the top, "to fucking rule the world" the way they originally set out to, so when they tried to simplify their sound, they ended up polishing and streamlining it so much that it had little traces of the original magic that they had. Being mega successful and popular and rich as hell doesn't mean shit in the eyes of a dedicated fan, what matters is the music plain and simple, and whether they want to try and change for the better or not and they think that their changing for every little demographic is "mature" is falling on deaf ears if they can't even make something remotely close to their first 4 albums. the expectation for Metallica was set so high because they set it that way when Cliff was high, and then they blew it. I'm not even talking about pure thrash anymore, I'm talking about their music as music, and I've got to say that alot of it was a fail. Sure, they tried to be bluesy, but guess what? it didn't work and the quality of it was awful. they're not Zeppelin and never will be, they don't have that natural finesse to change genres and actually make it sound good. oh, and Lars' opinion is not to be taken seriously. he's not in touch with metal fans at all, and he can barely play drums like he used to. he's only good at being rich now, but I'm not even sure about that since he insists on wasting his money on stupid fedoras
