When you finish this, search for “And Justice for Jason” it’s just a fanmade remake of the songs with bass boost. On the original they decided to be mean with Jason and lowered his bass track volume.

[@calebleland8390]

Did you read the interview with the guy that mixed it? He talked about how Lars kept at him until the bass was completely out of the mix. Then a couple of years ago they were at some event, and some talked about how the bass wasn't present. Lars then came up to this guy and asks "Yeah, how did that happen", like he had nothing to do with it. Lars can really be a prick.

[@asmodai2025]

The remix by Ahdy Khairat is way better than the ...And Justice For Jason remix as the bass is more balanced, less muddy, and clearer.

[@Mackwiss]

​@@calebleland8390 Cliff Burton was a pillar stone of Metallica. They still talk about him today with so much love. They literally saw him dead under a bus. Less than a year later they where obviously forced into getting a new bass player, into studio and to move on obviously by pressures from record labels or whatever to keep the Metallica machine printing money. It's obvious where all this grief ended up. This album is extremely dark compared to their previous work, and they took their grief on the recording process and on Jason the new guy. This situation alone had obvious consequences, it led Lars to want to go independent on their way of work and thus the switch we see in the Black Album, Metallica decided to go the Black Album way as they mentioned a number of times in A Years a Half and that's why they get Bob Rock, clash imensely with him but they never boot him, they end up following what Bob Rock wanted, they wanted to go commercial and become gigantic to the point that they can decide whatever they want to do with their band. This is clearly seen in Some Kind of Monster, despite all the crap they choose to continue to work they weren't forced into it or to break contracts. They choose to do St. Anger, they choose to do Lulu. They became so big they can do whatever they want. And that is for me the utlimate legacy of Cliffs death. I wouldn't be surprised that if Cliff never died Metallica would have become the same size as of Slayer for example and never gaining the popularity they got, obviously. Black Album, Load and Reload and everything afterwards would have never existed and we'd seen a continuation of the style that is present in Master of Puppets to this day. The whole way Cliffs death was managed and forced Kirk, James and Lars to move on is the single most defining factor of Metallica and something that still has deep scars in those three guys. Jason was just the pariah of their pent up frustrations with all of this...

[@kylebrady969]

A song that still remains painfully relevant in the United States and the world in general, 33 years after it was first written and recorded. Justice has been and is lost, r___d, and gone. The interlude and outro are also epic moments on this record (following on from my Blackened reaction comment.) I remember one uploader put a kind of commentary on the track; it went along the lines of, "The clean intro is the peace and calm, but as it gets into the heavy parts it represents the cracks spilling through until the song goes full distortion to signify the corruption as being out in the open. The interlude is the politicians, judges, etc. trying to restore the calm from the intro (hence it following basically the same core riff), but it doesn't work so we return to the main riff of the song." Was an interesting angle to look at.

This song in particular really showcases James's voice. He's still singing, but he's practically spitting venom in his shout.

[@ollyhudson9931]

This has always been my ‘go-to favourite’ Metallica album.

[@tobbeman1006]

Same

[@maxawesome7411]

man this song gives me so much nostalgia because my dad would play metal when we would go bmx racing and every time i hear this song i can practically smell the dirt and sweat from the jerseys on the way home

[@DonPiruflo]

the drumming is off the charts bro, so many changes, so groovy and the most amazing transitions. That drummer is dope af

[@ARG0T]

*was

[@DonPiruflo]

@@ARG0T music is immortal bro, as long as people keep discovering this stuff, he'll remain dope af

[@joshthomas2536]

Until everyone realises how overrated he is

[@ARG0T]

@@DonPiruflo nah hes still around. he just fucking sucks and has since the 90's lol, if you want an amazing metal drummer look at Gojira's music

[@oldmatevb]

fuknwastd his good buddy .

[@seantreme8772]

I saw this tour in Beaumont Tx. Queensryche opened, phenomenal stuff!!! They had a big statue of lady justice that they blew up on stage during the show, it was awesome.

[@markussmith7028]

This is my favourite song on the album!!

[@drej1714]

This your was my first concert. July 1989 at the Capital Center in Md. Amazing show, sound and sites. The women were just as phenomenal as the show!! Loved when they played this and Lady Justice exploded!!

[@LordSpongy]

Still have my concert T from their AJFA tour. Completely faded and the Metallica art on it is all worn away but I’ll never toss that shirt.

[@christymurphy6571]

Me too!!!

[@josephheffley4158]

Saw this concert also saw masters when they opened up for Ozzy in1986. Had no clue who they were. They just blew me away f'n amazing show.seen them in 80's, 90's, 2000's and 2020's. OMG so awesome

[@AZColt1971]

BAAAAAAAANGEEEEERRRRRRR!!!!!

[@Komorur]

One of their best... getting more actual every passing day. Loved to see someone appreciating, I've grown up on this, played with my silly band, decades later still respecting the hell out of it.

[@tylerreisinger734]

The best title track, hands down. Can't wait for Eye of the Beholder. Their most underrated gem

[@JoshStLouis314]

Hell yeah, Eye of the Beholder does not get the attention it deserves.

[@HypeWrecks]

This is the comment.

[@jacobhoth9158]

Ride the lightning title track is much better

[@ollyhudson9931]

Dunno...I rate Eye Of The Beholder pretty highly.

[@Joshcoshbagosh]

nah gotta go with Master of Puppets. Probably their best song imo.

[@markmedka1342]

This is so cool! Can’t wait for Eye of the beholder. 💪🏻😃

[@BreinGames]

My favorite album of all time. Definitely their most complex. And they layer the shit outta their guitars. And with that many guitars going, who needs bass?

[@JimVincent]

You can hear the bass in this track, BTW.

[@brossmart]

This song even if written and composed in the 90's it reflects exactly what is going on more than 30y after its release.

[@mr.nothing7483]

Shortest Straw has one of the nastiest intros. Can't wait till you get to that😁

[@davehughesfarm7983]

hell yes it is...

[@JimVincent]

Next time you listen to this album, jump from the end of Justice to Shortest Straw (skip Eye and One). They pair well together.

[@James.Maddock]

I appreciate how we can hear how loud Alex is listening to that song just before the overlay kicks in

[@Syko_Gaming5150]

Never clicked a notification so fast lol

[@nathantumulty7172]

This album has by far the best guitar tones of any of their albums IMO.

[@dokka7867]

if you don't get the metal scrunch face for most of this song... you are not human

[@DJBauer]

It's not even metal scrunch, it's the universal Filth Face.

[@levathan]

Just one of those songs that never end... It just keeps on giving.

[@LydianMaster]

One of the heaviest breakdowns after a solo of ALL TIME

[@LordVader66]

I agree, Domination from Pantera is probably my favorite tho

[@LydianMaster]

With the whammy bar dive leading into that crushing destruction...it's metal bliss

[@RobbieFitzgerald]

I love how they go back into the intro riff right after but heavily palm muted.

[@RoyalBeggar]

My favorite Metallica song. Truly a masterpiece.
