MY EARS!!! | FIRST TIME HEARING 'Metallica - Disposable Heroes' | GENUINE REACTION

[@BillBuckingham]

Disposable Heroes is an anthem. Metallica at their most dangerous. The song is a masterclass of thrash perfection and the key changes you felt in the solo were wonderful to see you experience. It's hard to take this music in at first listen and we are all enjoying your journey with Metallica. They truly deserve the fame they have earned.

[@keiththompson8922]

This....... I don't know what else to say besides.... This....

[@ericproctor553]

Master class perfect explanation of master of puppets no other album can ever compare to this 💀

[@ZOSIMAH]

What's the most beautiful thing in Kirk's solo is there no exaggeration in solo. He plays the way the best and that best lies in the song. Not too many tones to show his knowledge, but only to amplify the whole song.

[@johntheisen6791]

Nicely said brother. 🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@muskymikes]

What key change?? the entire song is in Em.

[@DianaMiceli-Billingsley-kj4ln]

Agree with you. This is what I consider Metal.

[@SavageDawgJoshua]

Im a 90s Marine and feel this song, especially now knowing what i know. Metallica knew before we knew, (for those who now know).

[@kangyuan]

I was in the army then and this song affected me a lot. I started doing coke and weed and ended up in ccf for busting a piss test. I just kept looking around my friends and saying strange things like "we have been brainwashed since we were children to kill an imaginary enemy". So they ets'ed my three months early and gave me a plane ticket home. Three months later, I watched the invasion of Kuwait and thanked luck that I was so ate up. Shout out to the 423'd medical batallion. I love you guys.

[@Htown511]

Thank you for your service your a bad ass

[@yoda6697]

i am sorry this country has failed you but thank you so much for your service. we the people should have done better for our brothers and sisters in uniform

[@BA2day]

I had a coworker who served in the marines, he never really opened up about his overseas tours. He was a bit lost when he came back and tried to integrate into "normal" life. I had him over for a few after a work happy hour and played this for him. Shared a good hug and shed a tear or two. A masterwork of intensity, emotion, and message.

[@ivanibarra6542]

James is a beast. To pick that fast and sing at the same time is insane

When I first heard Metallica. I was hypnotize and I am still to this day 35yrs later. I can honestly say the Master of Puppets album is metal royalty. Legendary!!! Fn out of this world!

[@williamwebb9041]

There's too many songs off the first 4 or 5 Metallica albums that could be anyone's favorite at any given time, This one however goes full speed for 8 minutes straight and has one of the greatest solo's ever, It's just on another level.

[@jochencooper2751]

Yep the first 4 albums is just classic after classic

[@tbone2071]

Exactly! The first FOUR albums! lol @@jochencooper2751

[@UltraViolent21]

Best Metal album of all time. I got to see them play this once in the pit. It was crazy. I’ve seen the 16 times. Always in the pit. 🤘

[@cherylphillips1361]

I've been listening to this album for 36 years. I still get goosebumps, my dude. What I want to know is HOW IN THE HELL can reactors hear something like this and not immediately listen to everything they can find? That's what started my Metal journey and I couldn't get enough. Keep in mind... For me, it was pre-internet. We had to borrow or buy everything that we wanted to hear. Most radio didn't play heavy metal and MTV was hit and miss.

[@kevinabraham9260]

Well because if they listen to everything they can find without getting a patreon request or money donated first, they can’t claim it’s their first reaction 🤷‍♂️ just being honest either that or they do and lie faking their “first” time reaction to a song

[@77magakill]

There is NO MUSIC like this today!! Metallica just killed it!! Every Song back then was Fantastic!!

[@louielouie22]

Hottest Metallica song ever!! It melted my face in 86 and always will.🤘😝🤘

[@Storm21740]

And Battery

[@cdecent]

Apparently he's slightly embarrassed by his higher register, but James' voice during the 80s was magic. He's really great now, too, at 60 but there's nothing like his early singing/screaming.

[@mumbles215]

I agree tho I didn’t know he didn’t like his earlier high voice. It’s sublime is it what it is.

[@sharonpate5481]

I’m an old lady and was never big on heavy metal but Metallica has a special spot in my heart. 💜👵🏼✌🏼

[@paulash1523]

I give this a thumbs up 👍, even before I've watched your reaction. I know you are gonna love this epic song. It's even better live 😊.

[@Metal_Mary]

Yes!! ❤

[@riphopfer5816]

They never played it live when they were in their prime-at least, not after Cliff passed.I therefore have to disagree.. Live, Lars can’t keep up the double kick drums, Kirk is sloppy as hell, and James can’t maintain the whirling chainsaw of razor-wire vocals, as he could on the record, or he could back in 1986.

[@esoterica412]

⁠​⁠@@riphopfer5816maybe do some research before putting bold claims like that. They debuted this song in 85’ when Cliff was still alive. Look it up, the live version is here on youtube. I also added the youtube link. They most likely played other times afterwards before Cliff died.

[@MKLST2]

I told him isten this 4 weeks ago, best song ever@@Metal_Mary

This is the greatest Metallica track ever. The one that grows on you like no other and eventually becomes your all time favorite

[@Spamer-ol6ve]

Prisoner of the moment.

[@ali965]

Definitely their best song. No debate

[@raytull3922]

IMHO, this is the greatest metal song ever recorded.

[@CaptainMerican]

Dad introduced me to Metallica when I was 4 years old and I think he had the same reaction I have watching these reactions videos. Seeing someone experience something you hold dear is an amazing feeling. I've listened to every single song Metallica has put out and Disposable Hero's is the greatest Thrash song they produced. The slow draw of the opening, modulation with tempo that pulls you in and the ending where you have no idea if they're going to keep going or stop playing. It's a 10/10 song, glad you enjoyed it man!

[@joshmorris9908]

This is probably my favorite Metallica song.

[@Me11oCarm]

Out of the gate... machine gun to the face... chainsaw to the chest. Fuckin Metallica 🫡🤘

[@pirro31]

I remember listening to metallica as a kid and having these moment of realizing what they were actually saying in their songs. now, older, these reaction vids let me marvel at and appreciate how damn good the music really was and is.

[@RedHand_Mat]

I still can’t believe that Hetfield can downpick that fast while singing. It’s unreal.

[@AB-gb1om]

I'm going to be shallow and pedantic, but this song doesn't have downpicking

[@LazarTristan]

@@AB-gb1om The intro is downpicked

[@Pickle_bigdill]

​@AB-gb1om it switches between down picking and uppicking throughout the song

Banger!!! I love watching u hear it for the first time. I know what’s coming and u don’t disappoint. U pick up many of the intricate things. Whole album suggestion would be Queesryche. You can really get a feel for them and Operation Mindcrime is an album played from start to finish. Great gib since coming back to yt

[@66048fishn-huntin]

One of the best albums ever! I heard this in ‘86 when I was 12 and absolutely love their first 4 albums. Still put on the best live shows, and I first saw one in ‘91. Legends.

[@susanconstable2113]

Imagine taking this album home for the first time and listening to it song by song thinking with each one that it was the best song on the album and then getting to this as the last song in the album- the entire album is an absolute masterpiece!

[@garymulviel9948]

Those were the days I was 15 and this album was insane and is still insane..best band to ever walk the earth

[@OldMFer]

Before Jason Newstead their bassist was Cliff Burton who died when the band had a bus wreck while on a tour in Germany. His last recorded album was And Justice for All. So the Black Album was the start of a new era for the band.

[@motleydude73]

Jason played on Justice. That was 1988. Cliff died 1986.

[@OldMFer]

I thought Cliff help record the album, but died before release. Thanks for clearing that up.@@motleydude73

[@chris8534]

Been waiting for this one - love it. Thanks. The live performance every Metallica fan will want you to do is 'Metalica Battery live in Seattle 89' - absolutely vicious. James sings like he just had a handful of gravel just thrown down his throat - and I'm here for it - music made by men for men.

[@glewman1972]

Like several have said...you need to see the 2009 Mexico live version....catcvhes all the energy and might sound better than the studio version...glad to see you enjoying the ride :)

[@bufflordraiden]

Since I was 18yrs old I've been into Metallica. Disposable Heroes has ALWAYS been my most favorite track. I went to Monsters Of Rock in Buffalo NY in 1990. Metallica performed & they were very brand new!!🔴

[@jochencooper2751]

You have to react to the metal hammer fest 85 performance ,James announces it as a new song,they absolutely kill it.

[@kreme5416]

This song basically represents the crosses on the album cover. The amount of soldiers that were used to the point they were pretty much disposable. “21, only son, but he served us well. Bred to kill, not to care, do just as we say. Finished here, greetings Death, he’s yours to take away”. No retreat: “you will do as I say when I say - (get) back to the front” “You will die when I say you must die - (get) back to the front” “You coward, you servant, you blind man”

[@glenkrisch4844]

I grew up in a super conservative area. I had a modern literature class in high school, and one of the assignments was to bring in a recording of a protest song, along with lyrics for everyone to read. The teacher grew up as a 1960s hippie, and most of my classmates brought in hippie-era peace and love songs. I brought in Disposable Heroes. That made a lot of people uncomfortable!

[@paulash1523]

The Thing That Should Not Be is a must watch, seattle 89 and No Leaf clover from either S&M1 or S&M2 would be great choices

[@jochencooper2751]

Come on Metallica fans, let's all get together and get Mollyboy to react to Disposable from metal hammer fest 85, it's a moment in Metallica history that he has to experience.

Imagine being blown away on the day it was released. Tower records was a mad house! lol

[@tsinnott74]

Easily my favorite Metallica, from my easy favorite Metallica album. Was a treat to be present when played live.

[@omgbeardriving]

If you're going to react to an album from start to finish I think you should do ...And Justice for All. One is the only song you've done off the album so far so most of them will be new for you. As amazing and groundbreaking as Master of Puppets is, this one is my favorite. There's just something about it. The themes they talk about are as relevant in today's climate as they were when it released in 1988. James' vocals somehow sound angrier. It's the most technically advanced playing they've done to date and the guitar tone is so satisfying to me. One thing to note though is that this was their first LP after Cliff Burton died, and Lars had the bass turned way down in the mix so you can kinda feel it but not really hear it. For some reason it just works for me and the raw sound produced just adds an extra layer to everything. Not really sure why.

[@xphiles2345]

this song, and Battery, are two songs that i listen to when i need energy. no drugs, no alc needed, just listen to some good REAL thrash.

[@firastalhouk8957]

i warned you about this song, i told you it will flip your brains. You have an ear for the guitar, you’re right this song has one of the fastest guitar strumming ever. The music and lyrics complement each other perfectly as in all Metallica songs but it is evident in this song more than others. i am not sure what to recommend next, but if you’re not going into albums yet i’d recommend that you take a leap in time and listen to something more recent from Metallica (not that more recent) but it will give you an idea of how they developed. It will show you how James’ voice developed and how he can use it and will make their music genius pop up more because what i’m recommending is a song played with and orchestra. I am madly in love with this song it’s tittled “No Leaf Clover”. One last thing, i don’t think anyone minds you pausing during the song that’s what reactions are all about but please please please try not to pause during a solo 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@BarzOnTheWindow1]

On a trivial side-note, the main intro guitar riff, is taken from a US television show called Hogan’s Heroes from the 1960’s. Quite sure one can find it here on KZbin.

Heh heh.....jeez dude! You looked totally spent after this one (and rightfully so)! The one bummer about your Metallica journey is that you can only hear these songs for the first time ONCE. But then you get to move on to the live stuff (they are still cranking out live stuff as we speak). As you've seen, their live performances are on another level. Can't wait for you to take in "Damage Inc." from this same album. They say it's something like 200+ beats per minute.....some crazy number like that. Damage Inc.'s lyrics are brilliant as well. If the U.S. Navy Seals had a theme song, that would be it. It's a speeding ticket waiting to happen. Great vid (as I knew it would be). Looking forward to the next upload.

[@bigemetalmilitia8462]

Here's my take on album reactions. Yes. Every album has a vibe. Everyone can listen to the top songs and that in itself is awesome. But you lose the vibe. Not every song on an album will be a top 10 hit. But it's the ride,,, the vibe,,,, you can hear abs feel what the band is feeling and the connection makes the experience that much better. But do whatever,,, any METALLICA is good METALLICA 🤘🤘🤘
