They are so cool! I just ordered 5 shirts for my sons for Christmas.

[@sudman6251]

Imagine approaching 60 years old and kicking this much ass! 🤘

[@Drescher1984]

Well Kirk is 60

[@loristone9242]

This absolutely sounds like old school Metallica. So glad y'all reacted to this! They are most definitely THE Metal gods. Such a great song, but to me, nothing will ever be as good as the early stuff. I first saw Metallica perform live in 1988 with my friends as a teenager. I will be seeing them for the 11th time when they come to Dallas next year, but I will be taking my sons with me. Full circle. 🤘🖤

[@playaycampo]

This is one of their best songs you just don’t know it yet. Give it time you will play it a million times. Everyone say the same thing and they just can stop playing it. This album will be a Masterpiece.

[@mikeellis3240]

Can’t wait for the album to drop in April of 2023. The last 2 they’ve gotten back to sounding so kick ass again with Death Magnetic and Hardwired To Self Destruct

[@Heatwave9000]

Cap

[@Huddle_House56]

It’s not even Lars on the drums lol

[@scifimonkey3]

You’re never too old to rock and roll…………

[@felixnewman2473]

I like the positive feeling it gives me.

[@Sp00kyM00kie]

FYI 1st album Kill 'Em All is widely regarded as THE first thrash album, ever. They literally defined the genre. Metal + punk = thrash. 🤘

[@Patienthost]

April 14th, that's my grandson's birthday!

[@jimsmith4548]

When I first heard this tune the other night I was kinda torn, as far as my initial impression. Now a couple days have gone by and I have found myself repeatedly going back to listen to it, over and over. The chorus where James screams the song title is everything in this track. That and the kick drums. But just the way James climbs the ladder vocally to belt out the chorus is such an amazing hook. This almost feels like a sorta power metal almost-but-not-quite Dokken-type vibe meets British new wave meets sped-up Load riffage meets a more polished version of Hit the Lights. It's gonna be a go-to live song (the lyrics kinda reflect that) and the song's energy and the boys' own energy are undeniable. I can't explain it, but all I know is my ear loves it. I'm very happy Metallica is back with new tunes and I'm also very happy they kept the album under wraps so now it's arriving soon - to MY mind - rather than them announcing it 2 years out and then us playing the waiting game. These old dogs can still hunt.

[@oldschool250]

Sounds like " Hit the Lights! "

[@stevepugh211]

Its old school with garage days inc singing. Its perfect. I like that they make shorter songs that jam. I like their lengthy songs but after while you just want it fast and to point

[@jgsrhythm100]

It's Olds school : Kill em All. Its basically a remake of Whiplash.

[@KevinQ1989]

It's a mix of Kill 'em All and Diamond Head.

[@spawn4582]

Please reaction to video Heart - Barracuda

[@firstnamelastname8060]

Lux Aeterna translates to "A defunct laundry soap that you can't get rid of". The 58-year-old of the group will be staying with me next week. His home away from home.

[@brucemarshall9521]

Metal. Ahhhh ! I'm refreshed. James using a Flying V 🤟 Kicking Maximus Buttimus ! Video was OK but it flaired up my Tourettes.

[@mikeellis3240]

Back in the ‘80’s and ‘90’s I used to have a glow in the dark shirt that said Rock n Roll over a skull with Flying V guitars for crossbones and then said Forever underneath the skull

[@davidriddick82]

MY GOOCH HAS BEEN SLAPPED AND MY TAINT TICKLED AND I DONT CARE!! This song slaps 🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥🤘🏻🔥 This is song #7 on the album It’s 3.30 of punch you in the face thrash

[@mikenastasi8927]

Little Caesars? I wish I could send you guys some real pizza from Long Island.

[@shanomac69]

Dayamm guys, the DOWN-PICKING GOD STILL HAS IT!!!!! So fast and tight, Kirk still KILLIN it with the wild effects on the pedals and whammy bar, and Lars kicking the crap out of the double bass pedals and everything else that's in his way. Can't forget my man RT on the bass with the hair down looking like Cousin It from The Munsters, LOL 😂😂😂 Just bloody AWESOME 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@alienlifeform7490]

Great song. Enjoyed your reaction!

[@фросчп]

Winamp style clip)))) Yeah !!!)

[@beauqc5587]

I think Nick has some repressed hatred of disco music. Using a disco ball as a piñata?? LOL Too funny!

[@jockeyladjockeylad8492]

There is a metric sh*t-ton of Motorhead in there - not a criticism, just an observation - the drums could have been 'Filthy' Phil Taylor at the height of his powers. Here's hoping the new material has the same legs. 10 out of 10.

[@FelipeRodrigues-tq1lj]

Metallica Brasil!

[@fullmoonprepping4024]

They seem to be following the Tom Scholz/BOSTON production/release method!

[@stevepugh211]

Ant wait to hear more. This maybe their best album in while and I liked death and hardwired

[@stevepugh211]

Can't not ant lol

[@stevenscharmer1765]

With Kill 'Em All being my all-time favorite album, I agree that this is old school. And you are very astute in that I agree that it's more along the lines of The Prince or Stone Cold Crazy or Killing Time from Garage recordings. I like this tune, the boys are really trying, and James sounds amazing. But I regard it as more very good and fun as opposed to stellar (you see, with your spacey t-shirts, I thought I'd use a space word!🤔😆).

[@supriyadiadi8148]

Next reaction (VOICE OF BACEPROT)" SABOTAGE" (Beastie BOYS cover)( VOB) Band Rock heavy metal 3 HIJABERS 🇮🇩 LIVE FULL SET At PASIWALI FESTIVAL in TAIWAN 10 23 2022 👍 AMAZING SUPER TALENTED 🤟🤟🤟

[@andrewknight4746]

Thanks boys.

[@ellesartelcontar153]

Its amazing that you noticed that very early punk trashy element in the song. Great reeaction and review by the way :)

[@BIGREDSETHJONES]

🤘💚❤️

[@heatherturner6955]

Prove it - turn the lights off (your shirts glow). This does not disappoint! Love it! Disco Ball/piñata... 😂😂😂 The most fun and dangerous game. 😄 Man, can't believe how good they are! And their energy!!! Kirk is so soft spoken and articulate in interviews. But man, his solos are like no other!!! They all bring it! Playlist 100 percent!!! Well put (lower quality pizza is still good pizza). Nick's go to. Ty's is driving in the car and Ryan the midnight/dreamy music...

[@robertawesome2410]

It's a ok short song, but I hope some the other songs have some middle song breakdowns.Like in Blackened, Creeping Death etc

[@u.s.m.c.fewproudthemarines2987]

Cool reaction it the 6song off the album so it could be intense album or 77 minutes of everything they done in life of music. Hopefully it be gd Album

[@jopdone7117]

Could you guys react to 'Joker and the thief' from Wolfmother?!

[@raymondproseus6923]

Wasn't Metal Up Your Ass technically their first album? Also, Kirk didn't lose his iPhone this time.

[@stevenscharmer1765]

Actually they wanted to call their first album Metal Up Your Ass, but the record company wouldn't allow it. They shopped for a different record company, but none would allow the name. As a reaction to this, Metallica said "Kill 'em all then" (referring to the record companies), and their first album title was born.

[@raymondproseus6923]

@@stevenscharmer1765 didn't they eventually release a rarity album in one of their collections with that title?

[@stevenscharmer1765]

@@raymondproseus6923 That sounds right. Maybe 15-25 years into their career? It would have been a collection of some sort, not a studio album. 40 years of Metallica releases has my brain a bit scrambled.😆

[@FreeMTrider]

@@raymondproseus6923 there were demos floating around back then in '82 called No Life 'til Leather. My friend has one. And of course we all had the Metal Up Your Ass t-shirts from that first tour. I got mine on the Lighten' tour in '85 Sacramento, Ca Memorial Auditorium. Got to meet the dudes too. Good old days.

[@stevenscharmer1765]

@FreeMTrider Cool, I saw them on the Lightning '85 tour in Madison, WI. Fun times. 🎸

[@supriyadiadi8148]

Next reaction (VOICE OF BACEPROT)" Enter Sandman" (Metalica cover )(VOB )Band Rock heavy metal 3 HIJABERS 🇮🇩 LIVE FULL SET At TRANS MUSICALES DE RENNES 👍 AMAZING SUPER TALENTED 🤟🤟🤟

[@THEDEEPDIVE]

Glad to see them having fun. Metallica will always be family to me. I don't dig this song much though. The songwriting is really paint by numbers fluff and the chorus feels too close to their cover of It's electric.

[@FreeMTrider]

I could also hear Diamond Head in there....and some Motorhead Overkill.

[@Ghostkeeper]

reminds me of bread fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Bread Fan wasn't really theirs

[@Remedy462]

Straightforward solo...bro that was like a solo falling apart lol. Slayer influence indeed slathered in motorhead. No offence, analysis was great and song is a thrash bopper.

[@scottspears9347]

Too bad that Metallica couldn't be as hardcore metal like they used to be. Wish they could be more like Orbit Culture

[@keithfarrington6616]

Is pop thrash

[@jaypeterson2311]

On a drop do not stop the fucking vid. Killing me. Say your peace after.

[@ViewsFromThe502]

We'll do what we want, thanks

[@scottspears9347]

Like I just said. This song is still disappointing

[@AUTZEN29]

You guys also really need to react to Boz Scaggs…Lowdown! It’s fire. 🔥 again…listen to it in the studio version NOT the live version.

[@AUTZEN29]

Can you guys PLEASE do Kenny Logins…Heart to Heart!?!?! If you thought…”THIS IS IT” by him was fire just wait till you rest to Heart to Heart. Wait for that SAX 🎷 is all I can say! Make sure it’s the studio version and NOT the live version.
