[@alebarajas3045]

Derek N ehh somewhat not really. People dislike this song because it has a music video, which at the time of you made a music video to a song, it was considered selling out and being “poppish”. The song itself is far from a pop song and the album it’s on AJFA is I think their fastest thrash album. It’s mainly the music video and it really blowing them up that gets hate. Doesn’t take away from the actual song

This song is one of the hardest metal songs. Metallica never fails. And Lars kills it

[@joelberkey-lewis4102]

Historically And Justice was a really dark album, one that they recorded over the loss of their Bassist Cliff Burton who had died while the band was touring a year and a half earlier. One is based on Johnny got his gun by Dalton Trumbo who both wrote the book in 1939 but also directed the film in 1971. Joe is the soldier, who was a son and was engaged to be married and the very last day of World War One is the victim of a mortar shell blast that blinds him, causes him deafness, removes his jaw and nose, and severely injures his arms and legs which have to be amputated. Unaware that Joe is conscious and can still think and feel, he is believed to be an unthinking, unfeeling vegetable. Recognizing that he wishes to be dead due to the extent of his injuries once he becomes conscious and is able to piece together exactly what has happened to him he desperately begins to try to find a way to communicate to the Nurses and Doctors. As a last-ditch effort, he decides to use morse code, using his head to tap out the messages. S.O.S. Help, Kill me. Which at first is misinterpreted as part of his condition slipping until they begin to notice its consistency. The story ends with Joe finally getting his wishes across to one of his nurses who tries to end his suffering but is stopped by a Military superior and ends ambiguously with whether he remains in his state or whether they finally end his misery.

If you even understand a little bit about music you'll be able to see the incredible power and emotion within this classic. I retired from the military a couple years ago after 25 years of service. I understand the torture and finality of war first hand as I have known many buddies that have been devastated one way or another. I cannot listen to this song or watch this video without it having a profound affect on me for the rest of the day. I tend to avoid experiencing "ONE" these days because it emotionally drains me but I had to see your take on it. Thanks boys, another awesome job!

[@gv280z]

I've heard this soooo many times and it still gives me chills.

[@thiccer]

This song is heavily based on the book "Johnny Got His Gun" about a man who wakes up to realized he has lost his arms, legs, and most of his face from combat during World War 1. He cannot see, hear, speak, or move and is left only with his thoughts. It's a great read for anyone interested on where the inspiration for this great song came from.

I've known people who were listening to Metallica before 1989 who were very negative about this album, but they're full of shit as far as I'm concerned. Imho the only valid attack against this album is the lack of bass in the mix, but other than that it's lyrically and musically unbeatable. If you listen to the remixes that have been made with the bass tracks since, it's absolutely unassailable as a quality metal album. I'm biased though, this was the album that got me into metal and defined my music taste for the rest of my life.

[@Fordman7575]

The song isn't trash. People thought they sold out because this was their first music video. And it blew up and brought Metallica from kind of the underground thrash metal community to the main stream. This music video Is how I discovered Metallica back when I was in middle school. One is the song that got me interested in Metallica. People/fans like to whine and complain. There are the group that said they went down hill after the "And Justice For All" album. Because the black album was too polished/well produced/main stream/commercial. Then more said the same thing about the "Load" & "Re-Load" albums. And there was the group that lost their sh@t because the band cut their hair for the "Load" album. I like all their albums, except the "St. Anger" album. That one was a let down. And the people that talk trash about Lars are just jealous. He's the drummer for one of the biggest, most successful bands in history. Yea, he must be trash. 🙄😂 I'm sure all the trash talkers just break his heart, while he sits their counting his millions!!!😭🤣🤣🤣🤣

This is one of the greatest metal songs ever written.. period. It's hip and trendy to hate metallica in the metal community. But if it wasn't for this song and other metallica albums. None of those metal elitist bands would exist. No matter what they say.. Old metallica will always be metal.

[@M3rett0]

Metallica isn't Black Sabbath, they didn't influence the whole genre.

[@pmani3704]

@M3rett0 I think you meant to say, "they didn't invent the genre". They certainly influenced it. I guarantee most metal bands today draw influence from the sound Metallica pioneered

[@07zx14White]

john vaughn Yes yes and yes! Absolutely one of the best songs of all time. Classic Metallica strongly helped form metal in its early years no matter what some people think they know. Other bands as well. I also still say Dio was a formative metal god and always will be.

[@texfx4405]

M3rett0, you're not serious, are you?!?! They did in fact influence the whole genre! SMDH!

[@gibsonlespaul796]

Kill Em' All is the record that pioneered the Thrash Metal genre. There were elements of Thrash before Metallica from bands like Sabbath, Queen, Motorhead and Venom, but Metallica is the band that wrapped it all up into 1 package. I know there were bands on the east and west coasts doing Thrash at the same time Metallica were, but Metallica got their record out first. With all that being said, Metallica bores the hell out of me and I'm disappointed whenever I see these guys react to them !!!

This song is about the 1939 Dalton Trumbo novel Johnny Got his Gun. The clips in the video are from the 1971 movie version. The black and white scenes are his present condition after stepping on the land mine, the scenes in color are him flashing back to his life before the accident. Both the novel and the movie have been banned and very difficult to get at various points in history due to the powerful anti-war message. Metallica bought the rights to the movie to use in this video. The original author Trumbo was one of the people blacklisted during the McCarthy communism witchhunts.
