It was really funny when they played it on the UK “Top of the pops”, and they knew it was a song of two halves, a quiet one and a brutal metal riffing half. So they were going to play the quiet half, weren’t they, the BBC is kinda scared of metal. So Jamie Theakston introduces it and it’s the second half, from the twin guitar harmonic solo! “Darkness, imprisoning me, all that I see, absolute horror!” Obviously by accident. And they get to the end and Theakston and the audience look shell shocked! They are not ready for “Buddadabudda-Chang budda-Chang budda-Chang!” Hetfield monster riff. “Ooh er! Says Theakston, “That’s a bit heavy for me!”

[@neilpatrickhairless]

This video is really unsettling. I remember seeing it for the first time on MTV when I was around 5 years old, ('89) and it creeped me out then and still does. Metallica caught shit over making a video - MTV was considered "selling out" to quote unquote 'real' metal bands and fans. This is the video Metallica came out with. People were on the fence about the movie scenes interrupting the song so they made an alternate video of just the band playing in a warehouse. This is the REAL video, the one that has more significant meaning.

As others have mentioned its an anti-war novel from 1939 about a guy hit by an artillery shell losing his arms, legs, all his face (ears, eyes, teeth, tongue), and most of his lower groin area. His mind, however, is perfectly functional. He is a prisoner in his own body, fed through tubes, given air. He realizes he can communicate via morse code and asks for help, drifting between reality and fantasy (as he has nothing to base when he's awake or asleep). He asks to be put in a glass case and toured around the world to show the horrors of war, when the military declines, he asks to be killed. They decline that request too. It ends with him knowing he will live the rest of his natural life trapped in his prison.

The guitar intro captures the aesthetic perfectly and every other part from the lyrics to the aggressive breakdown to the drum solo interlude to the outro solo, every part has a role in the song that no other metal band has been able to capture quite like them.

This song is easily a 98 tomatoes, it's just a staple of metal and a classic. I'm not a huge Metallica fan (obviously grew up on them in the late 80's/early 90's and lost interest after the black album, cuz as Chuck said, "the rest doesn't really matter"), but this song is always a pleasure to listen to. For the next School of Metal, maybe Deep Purple - Burn, or Highway Star (live from the 1974 California Jam concert)? That whole concert was EPIC, but those 2 are the easy choices for a first listen.

Still, your daughter is so much more receptive to your tastes, which is such a beautiful thing. Many families, especially these days, tend to not connect anymore, and it's almost like we're all just strangers to each other. You two will be able to share these memories of listening to this together for years to come.

[@justjayceeok99]

saw them play this live a few years ago. they enacted war on stage before the song started, using lighting and pyrotechnics. gave me goosebumps.

[@Ozzpot]

I have 13 different recordings of this song, in its single form alone, all the way from little 3" CDs in card sleeves to 12" picture discs (Mint, NRFB!), unique foreign issues and the "2 of One" VHS! I think it was the first song I learned to play on guitar (never anywhere near as well as Kirk of course). Like I've said before, Justice was my first album too, and remains a firm favourite. They won a grammy for this song, and yes, I would say it helped propel them from darlings of thrash metal to mainstream metal monsters. There's a reverse snobbery in metal fandom where bands are punished for becoming popular. People equate "popular" to "mainstream", and then surmise that mainstream is the antithesis of cool. Some even say a band has "sold out" just because their latest album went platinum. What nonsense is this? I think this is very unfair. Anyway, I don't think you mentioned it, but an interesting fact is that they actually bought the entire rights to the movie "Johnny Got His Gun" just so they wouldn't have to keep paying royalties! Great reaction as always guys. Keep them coming!

[@KoRn_NuTT]

They have remastered the first few albums so the bass does stand out more on those, I do recommend picking those up 🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥🤘🔥

[@TubetakerBHV]

During the first 3 albums the bass sound was never a problem. The only album were you hear not a single bass note is "justice for all" and even in the remastered version they didnt change that. And the reason for that is that they are still childisch assholes. Not more not less!

[@RolandDeschain1]

Even with Cliff bass has always been nothing for Metallica. You can't hear Cliff on any of the albums unless he us actually soloing.

[@davidvied2507]

One-Eye bs, you can hear Cliff great on those albums, the only way you can’t hear it is if you don’t, a typical music fan might not hear it but anyone that plays or understands music will have no issues.. bass played a lesser part in their music after Cliff but it’s still prevalent if you’re actually listening.. plus the focus of Metallica has always been guitars and drums because James and Lars are the writers of 99.9% of it all..

[@davidvied2507]

TubetakerBHV the real reason the bass is non existent on AJFA is because of the frequencies of the mix, James guitars are scooped with the mids taken out, so it’s high gain with a heavy bottom, the bass gets lost because it occupies the same space, and with James ego during that period and being the main writer he’s obviously not gonna bend. Plus Metallica has always been all about guitars and drums, James and Lars drive the ship, they aren’t gonna let anyone really shine beyond themselves.. hence even clipping Kirks wings on the St Anger album with no solos.. they were huge egotistical asshats until that point and almost lost their band because of it

[@YavuzErol]

Because they did not remixed it. Remastering does not do shit to volumes of tracks. It is about the clarity and production of the sound

Pulling teeth is definitely one that should be listened to with Cliff Burton playing.

The difference is eye opening especially when you consider how young Cliff was when he played it.

[@nudegamer6496]

Cliff was not only a master of the bass, he was one of the greatest musicians ever in my opinion. How many other people can play a bass and make it sound like a lead guitar? One of Metallica's best members ever, even though he was actually technically the band's second bassist (the very first bassist being Ron McGovney, back when Dave Mustain was another original member). Taken from us too soon by that bus accident in Europe (in Switzerland if I recall correctly). R.I.P Cliff Burton

I personally give it a 100 in your meter. It is my favorite Metallica song by a long shot. One thing I wanted to comment on: when you said he was sending Morse code wanting to die he might have used a finger. He had no arms or legs, he was a blind deaf/mute with a head and torso. He was using his head jerks to send the Code; that's why sometimes you see him jerking his head up and back down quickly, to form letters. As to what others have commented on, I am torn between using this video as a reaction, as opposed to the studio version. The song is better to listen to on the studio, the video is better to give context to the lyrics and the message. I would probably lean towards studio version with lyrics as a reaction, but watch the video on your own after.

As many people have already said, the movie in the video is based on the book of the same name (Johnny Got His Gun) by Dalton Trumbo. It is deeply chilling and I recommend it. Movie is good too though.

React to Epica - Kingdom of Heaven LIVE!

[@saturnracer156]

You mentioned Blackened. I always tease my wife and call that "her song". When we were dating, and I ran out of "easy listening" (Tesla, Candlebox, Scorpions) she wanted to hear what I thought was heavier. She thought we were rocking hard already.. LOL I put on Justice, she was listening, trying to hear the words. The first Metallica lyric that she understood was See your mother Put to death See your mother die The look of horror on her face was priceless. Once she read the full lyrics, she was ok, but I"ll never forget that look. haha

[@aaronposteraro1986]

Anthra Cite we have our undercovers series coming back Friday. I would check that out if I were you! 😉

[@MetaliBlack666]

Alice In Chains Unplugged performance would be cool to check out. Songs like Woudl?, Down In A Hole, Rooster, No Excuses.

[@du24pont70]

I've heard the song hundreds of times and seen the video probably just as many times, and at 50 years old, I still find myself getting all choked up over it. My first Metallica album was 'Kill 'Em All'. And oddly enough, I think turning down the bass in And Justice For All is waht made the album as great as it is. It's different, but it works. I love how she understood it. Great reaction vid!

Is that a band and a song or a suggestion for me to go to therapy?

Behemoth is amazing and since they’re going to be at knotfest you might as well react to them! Is kid your ready but “Oh father, Oh Satan, Oh sun” is an awesome track from them.

[@eltonbarnes2885]

Ok everyone has their own opinion on number 1 Metallica song ever. That being said, excluding one specific album moly, lola wetf its called Metallica has no bad songs. My personal fav. Creeping Death. What better way to learn the exodus from biblical history. Of course view point of a plague, but non the less an amazing song ,message, and epiphany. When i realized the connection. Wow!

[@donpayne3244]

Can there be a group for people who like all kinds of metal?

You mean ChemSquad vs. Circle of Death? I think both include people who like all kinds of metal!

They had us read the book in high school. The foreword by the author breaks down how many pounds of brains and hearts make up the ~50k Americans that died in the Vietnam war. It was meant to further outline the disillusion between war in the abstract sense and war in reality.

The character in the movie was in ww1. Actually if it wasn't for bomb shells I wouldn't exist. My great grandfather got the best thing possible. Shrapnel in his skull. It didn't penetrate his brain or disfigue him but he was injured enough to go home.

I've never heard the complaint about this album being not having enough bass! News to me in 2019!

[@CrueHead18]

Wow! Love this reaction. You describe it. It's real. Thank you!

[@jimgastouniotis2019]

Please react to disposable heroes by metallica. It is a song from the Master of Pupets album and another one that is about war and has a deep meaning.

[@Aezetyr]

I love what Juliette said about the video being disturbing to watch. She's totally right! It's supposed to be disturbing; it's supposed to get people to think about the pointlessness of war, and the horrors that are forced on it's victims. The original album track did not have the scenes from the movie; they were added to make the video *even* more powerful. 'One' almost seems like a follow up to 'Disposable Heroes' from Master of Puppets; I'd love to see you react/review to that one as well.
