It would be mostly James and Lars getting drunk and writing songs, I'd pay anything to see their creative process back then

This song is very special! Perfect performance!

[@silvanoschwetscher6281]

Yeah, they recorded it here

[@scottreiber8555]

Watching these guys interact in the studio and being able to witness their writing process shows the obscene amount of talent they really have. Haters be gone! These guys are masters of their craft.

[@andysalter7192]

It's why there the greatest!! The attention to detail is amazing.

[@alexparker1046]

i LOVE that james wears his guitar when he does vocals now.

[@silvanoschwetscher6281]

Give's himself a feel of he actually playing the song while singing, just like he does

[@andysalter7192]

Gives him a chance to feel it with a guitar on or practice the riff while singing to get it down. But if you watch the Hardwired stuff he is sometimes doing it with no strings on the guitar. Just a comfort thing I guess

[@janne9002]

4:12 Justice's era vocals

[@PiazzaGurl]

Love watching these guys making magic. Best scene 0:50, Lars and Rob all smiles as James and Kirk play synchronized. It’s like two singers harmonizing, it’s so beautiful🥲🥲🥲🥲. I effing love this SONG! James sings it so amazing. His voice has becomes so seasoned. This song is like Fade to Black, immediately you close your eyes and your sucked in. That’s what I love about their not softer but but more melodic music. I’m an R&B/Soul/HipHop/House Music/Acid Jazz/Hard Rock head lol, all these genre ms have melodies in their music, just closing the eyes and listening with big headphones. Effing best man.

[@andregordon2599]

6:13 i love this , that honestly is a great theoretical framework to build your composition theory around, especially in metal. Lars in the studio is invaluable IMO

[@capnkdawg]

The beginning of this song is so soft, it just keeps growing and never really climaxes, like Stairway...Masterpeice

[@marselluswallace6]

This album just keeps getting better over time. Especially now after hearing hardwired. I'd kill to hear a death magnetic #2

[@Taylor-ou7xp]

Death magnetic is up there with the first 4 records, songwriting wise it's on par with and justice for all in my opinion

@@Taylor-ou7xp That's true. Hardwired is cool but Death Magnetic feels like AJFA Part 2 for me - in 1990 it would be best trash album ever done

THANK YOU METALLICA FOR ANOTHER AWESOME SONG!! YOU ARE TRULY A CLASS ALL YOUR OWN!!

[@Emronia]

this song made me buy the album...so amazing!!

[@BBScarfaced]

For me "The Day That Never Comes" is the best ever Metallica song. "Master of Puppets" is still the best album but TDTNC set a new level in Metal music. And I think this level is unreachable for years like MOP was until now.

[@MrMitzu1]

Maybe he meant "The day that never comesah"?

[@vargasisking]

the thing thats so great about death magnetic is that it combines the load a reload bluesy type stuff with and justice for all aggression and riffs and master of puppets speed

[@ronnydittrich2181]

2:07 James plays on Kirks guitar.

[@gwolf6975]

One of the better metallica songs that actually sounds fairly metallica. Like the justice

It's like And Justice For All meets The Black Album ♥️

Absolutely there most progressive album since justice.

[@symplayer]

James is a fucking animal. i love it

[@super7o]

this is one of kirks hardest solo,s i have a hard time with this one

[@andysalter7192]

Yeah Kirk has a fast right hand

[@twiztidlestat]

I am editing a version of this song, that has the sound clip at 7:41 behind it, I LOVE that sound james makes. How ANYONE can think they are ''In it for the money'', obviously doesnt watch this stuff, They want to experiment, and have fun creating their music

[@Metallica9399]

It's quite amazing seeing what stayed and didn't stay... they should SO make a special CD or something of like outtakes. Metallica amazes me time and time again. \m/

[@sntpro]

Something very inspiring watching true artists creating a masterpiece.

[@debbstraw579]

I could never pick a favorite Metallica song, but this one will always be up there in my list. Good mix of slow melodies and heavy fast rhythms and solos. And I can also relate with the lyrics a lot.

Wow, the first riff of The Day sounds awesome.

[@shawnstarks1743]

I know this is a bold statement. I think this is the best song they ever did. And yes, I'm very very familiar with their catalog. And, no I don't do drugs. This song was Kirk's finest moment. Played his ass off.

[@maeschder]

one of my favourite solos of all time

[@midnight7895]

[@JoshDanielGuitar]

i would love to see "The Making of One," it would be awesome.

Making of Justice!! Only audio demos r there. They did video demo making from Black album : (

[@andysalter7192]

You can hear it on the justice boxset, from James riff tape to pre production to final recording. But yeah it would be the best thing in the world to have footage of the justice sessions.

[@WalleyeGuy4]

I'm so glad they didn't use the talkbox in The Day That Never Comes.

[@DrummerPortwo]

7:35 if that sound would stay in the song it would be AWESOME

[@LorriSanga]

The best song on the album for me

[@IcedEarth426]

It's cool seeing how they make their songs come together from a string of ideas. Metallica's still got it.

[@LouisCFer]

@udontcanseeme Se llama un Talk-Box, es un tubo que se conecta a un pedal que genera un sonido. El sonido se modifica por los movimientos de la boca.

[@Werleman]

wow they had so many great ideas for this, I like the version that came out though. James' voice kicks ass

[@1994fishcake]

My favorite Metallica song.

[@DecoM1N3RV4]

Depois do St. Anger, eu achava que o próximo album seria ruim. O Death magnetic foi com certeza, um ótimo album. O Metallica voltou às raízes nesse album.

[@GamingFG]

@domanick189 that is because its one of their four songs that do exactly that the other songs are, in album order "fade to black", "sanitarium", "one" and "the day that never comes"

[@yunusap]

@thedork649 It's a talk box, I'm not sure exactly how the technology works but when you sing into it, it distorts the sound of the guitar

[@mountainofsound]

such range with vocals with that dude god i wish i had that good of a voice

[@sbpark95]

@facktoor9320 Think its part of reviving Metallica's tradition... since a lot of fans seemed to disconnect with metallica when St. Anger came out. Metallica's old logo is back, the first track starts off with clean guitar intro and later distorted, the fourth track starts off light and becomes heavier, and there's a long instrumental at the end of the album. 2,3,4 and this album all have that in common

[@GerryBoy]

ProTools have become a dream come true for studio musicians.

[@DTPVH]

@domanick189 it's supposed to. they're both ballads. so are fade to black, the unforgiven, and welcome home (sanitarium).

[@rudiebassic]

They look SOO much happier than in Some Kinda Monster... Good to see... Great band!

[@voskresene]

Man, I love these clips!!!! It would be so cool to record an album. Also, I love the relaxed atmosphere they have going in the studio. Also...man what a guitar collection!!!!! It must be nice to have the cash they have to be able to get all of those bad ass guitars.

[@Fister_of_Muppets]

@xxJACKxDANIELSxx they did include the talk box, if you listen to the song after the first set of versus, you can hear it in the background.

They are the people that make the album what it is. Producers, studio techs, managers etc. I will hopefully be doing this for a career after uni

[@Juventinos]

@Sabu71495 No they didn't want to call it casper :P that was only the working title instead of track1,2,3,4 etc.. it was called casper because it uses a jam recorded in Casper Wyoming.

[@SpartanMartan973]

@domanick189 all of the fourth tracks from ride the lightning, master of puppets, and justice for all and death mgnetic are all composed the same way with an intro solo 2 mellow verses, two chorus's another more hard core verse and an ending solo.

[@IcedEarth426]

@MrKancode That is Cliff Burnstein. He is the founder of Q Prime Management and was one of the guys that got them signed to Elektra Records.

[@Fister_of_Muppets]

@i8yoursandwich yes you are right, and now ESP has the "Kirk Hammet" model guitar, it's a bit pricey but it is an all-black strat-syle body, with all the bells and whistles that he usually plays with (pickups, and I think some even have the skull-and-crossbones markings between the frets). I like the reverse HS as well, great guitars. Hell, these guys always play kick-ass guitars!

[@TheDanfn26]

One of my favorites of all times!!

[@Jllyrol311]

It's true. Watch the 2 new DVD's - He'll play different guitars for the same song, and those were only taped a month apart. I guess Kirk's different, since he mostly plays different variations of his own signature guitar. I can't say I'd be any different.

[@Siorse]

@cfhpantera1 He assisted in writing 4 out of 10 songs on Kill em all, and possibly very slight contribution to Ride the lightning. How that encompasses the first three albums i do not know...

[@DRUMMER121602]

it may seem like alot, but from my experience, its rewarding, and actually alot of fun to write songs

[@Fister_of_Muppets]

@i8yoursandwich, it's not that ESP's don't have what it takes to record in the style... these guys build their guitars however they want, I doubt they ever play them right out of the box. A traditional gibson or fender is easier to play on your lap than an ESP is just because of the shape of them. Sound-wise, these guys play with the same pickups and strings most of the time, no matter what brand guitar it is.

[@thegrimreaper1991]
