My First Time Listening to Ride The Lightning by Metallica | My Reaction

[@SomeSong2]

The quantum leap forward Metallica made in arranging songs on this album continues on their next album Master of Puppets.

[@mollyesanborn]

Looking forward to hearing it!

[@user-gx3cf2ot2q]

Totally agree. Imo master of puppets is the best one.

[@michbenny1363]

That's most likely because Cliff Burton had more of an influence on the the writing on this album and Master of puppets. He most likely had writing on kill em All but I would imagine I wanted until it was written before he jumped onboard.

[@hopey16]

This is my favorite Metallica album!

[@iTxip]

100% Agree

[@TheScorpio1999]

This album is a masterclass in chord progression. The way the guitar chords paint picture after picture, in every song; it's almost like there's this soothing effect behind the heaviness once you start noticing it more and more. And yes, I am including the bass influence of Cliff in this equation. Absolutely. Such genius.

[@tetfol3315]

Well said, few bands matched their riff masterclass in modern times, Mastodon maybe.

[@garfield5667]

This album is like a million times better than Kill em all to me, the songwriting is improved upon exponentially. The lyrics now actually have meaning to them. The guitar tone is unique and the mixing is also much better than Kill em all. Call of Ktulu is actually a masterpiece in my opinion also fun facts: the bells you hear on the album are actually the drummer, Lars, hitting an anvil with a hammer in the studio The song Creeping Death is based on a part in the Bible where god sends an angel of death to kill all of the firstborn sons of the Egyptians, The song is told from the perspective of the angel

[@nature_nd]

Great reaction! I really love hearing your thoughts in real time! The first 5 albums are an absolute journey!!

[@EJW2]

This is the best Metallica album in my opinion. Master of Puppets has some masterpieces, but this album just does it for me. By the way, the intro for For Whom the Bell Tolls is done by Cliff Burton, an incredible bassist who died far too soon. If you listen to MoP, look out for his bass solos in Orion.

[@mollyesanborn]

I love that intro on For Whom The Bell Tolls! I'll keep my ears peeled on Orion when I get to a Master Of Puppets video, thanks for the heads up.

[@themetalpig7613]

Agreed, my fav of their pre Black album material. I've always been in the camp of Lightening over Puppets, even though both are great. Although I'd have Justice in front of Puppets as well.

[@magnusmagnusson8302]

@@mollyesanborn there are clips here on youtube from 1984 i think when they are playing live,, and you can see him shreds that bass headbanging doing that intro!!

[@jameslr1800]

For me Master of Puppets is better, Welcome Home: Sanitarium and Damage Inc are so brutal

[@DirtMaguirk]

I think it's interesting how Molly described certain elements on the album and how it apply to their respective tracks like James's early voice in Ride the Lightning with the trashing highs feels like the electricity running through his veins during the capital punishment and Kirk's solo on Fade To Black has a sense of desperation and last moments towards suicide. Really enjoyed this reaction.

[@johnnelson3665]

Master of Puppets is definitely worth listening to as well. It follows a similar formula to Ride the Lightning. But slightly heavier and longer songs. I would say most people prefer Master of Puppets over Ride the Lightning. But I think Ride the Lightning is slightly more melodic. So I give the edge to Ride the Lightning. Glad you finally got to review this album.

[@mollyesanborn]

Yeah I'll definitely plan on checking out Master Of Puppets too. Can't wait to hear it!

[@dezmilad]

In my opinion Lightning and Puppets are just perfect metal albums. Even though they have very similar album-flows, it's acceptable because they're that good. If there was a school for metal, grade 1 should be studying these two albums

[@christophermollan1684]

Former ice rescue technician and trainer...Trapped Under Ice was kind of our theme song and we blasted it on the way to the drills!!!! I have been an EMT in NJ since 1999.... BTW this is one of the best reactions to this album I have ever seen ... you get it... instant suscribe!!!!!

7:59 Bless you Molly! First and foremost, I love your view of things and how you think them through. And you have one of the best intros I've seen, it is nothing short but iconic to me. Bless you twice for doing this and I hope that many more albums of many kinds would follow :)

[@archibaldsalyards926]

I love your patience and listening. This band was working from their heart and guts for the first 3 albums!!! RIP : Cliff I so miss the long music intros without any vocals... and I do love James singing!! This band is like No Other!!! Call it heavy, dark, thrash, punk, death,... there is only One METALLICA!.

[@joaogabrielferreira9459]

I just love your passion about music. This is such a great album, one of my favs from them. The instrumental song is a dark one, inspired by a HP Lovecraft tale which has the same name. Creepy and beautiful.

[@rickclay]

Molly digging your channel, and spot on reactions........from a metal head😂🤘🤘

[@martinwhite3559]

Master of Puppets is often considered the greatest metal album of all time and a must for your next reaction. The first 2 songs are the best intro to any album.

[@birberking6999]

So much nostalgia for me with this one. I think myself as well as a lot of younger metallica got into the band from their parents. So many good memories for me connected to this one and their next, I almost forget at times they are super diverse masterpieces.

[@markyoung8163]

God!! This react takes me soooo far back! I was 15 when this came out, and I was at Hastings before school the day it came out. Bought the CASSETTE (God I'm old) and played the hell out of it. Most of my friends and party acquaintances (lol) had no idea what this was. Keeping in mind, Metallica got almost ZERO radio play for Kill Em All, Ride, AND Master. We used to get heavy rock played on Friday nights from the college radio station and that was about it. FM 90 Amarillo, TX. Then And Justice came out and BLEW UP. Crazy times back then. Thank You!

[@kratos_pt1121]

This album is very special to me, it was the first metal record that I listened to on vinyl. Years later during college, Ride The Lightning, Master of Puppets and several Megadeth albums (among others) helped me during American Literature and Spanish History classes. I became curious about the inspirations and connections between the songs and the books. There are a lot of literary themes throughout this album, specifically in For Whom The Bell Tolls (it's a book by Hemingway about the Spanish Civil War) and The Call of Ktulu (based upon the Cthulhu mythos, a sea creature, by american writer H.P. Lovecraft). In essence, the songs inspired me to read and the books made me listen to more albums, and more importantly, learn. Sorry for the long text, lol. Nice analysis, Molly :)

[@robhall3693]

Keep going!!!!! Haven't clicked on a vid that fast in a while!!

[@aaronbevinsnerdcentral]

This was my intro to Metallica...as soon as 'Fight Fire With Fire' kicked in, really started my love of metal, and those chugging crunchy riffs. Wore out several cassettes back in the day! It's cool you have gone chronological as well...wait until Master Of Puppets hits your ears! Great reaction once again Molly! You must add Anthrax and Soundgarden to yer list too 😉

[@brettschacht4183]

Great reaction, as always Molly! Looking through your backlog of videos, it appears Opeth hasn't made an appearance yet. They have a huge catalog, but if I had to pick a jumping in point, it would definitely be 'Ghost Reveries', one of my personal favorites. I know you'd enjoy it. Hope you have a great week!

You are correct, I have not taken the leap into Opeth yet... definitely want to do that though! Opeth has been suggested a lot. I'll try and get to them soon :)

[@Peter_1986]

"Fade To Black" has a pretty interesting story behind it; James wrote those lyrics shortly after some of Metallica's equipment had been stolen, and one of those stolen items was a cool amplifier that James had got from his mother before she had died, so he was really depressed for a while at that point.

My favorite Metallica album all-round. This album is perfection! THIS album contains the SOUL of Metallica. Some wiser ones divide the first four albums into the elements: Kill 'Em All is the Fire album, Ride the Lightning is the Water album, Master of Puppets is the Air album, and ...And Justice For All is the Earth album. You can even tell by the artwork of the covers.

Great reaction as always! Yes, Metallica really upped their craft with this one. Where Kill Them All was all speedy thrash all the time, this album brings Metallica into what became their signature mix of the beautiful and melodic with the blistering metal stuff. And yes, it continues into Master of Puppets, which is the one where it all comes together best. Can't wait to hear the reaction to that!

Fun fact: the songs Ride the Lighting & The Call of Ktulu are the only songs with Writing credits for Dave Mustaine thus making them the last songs to appear on a Metallica album that were made by the Hetfield/Ulrich/Burton/Mustaine lineup!

[@stephen_lamonica_bass_covers]

Not sure if anyone else posted this but Dave Mustaine co-wrote the songs Ride the Lightning and Call of Ktulu when he was originally in the band. That’s why they have a pretty different tone to the rest of the album and you can definitely hear his influence when you compare them to Megadeth compositions

Great selection! I first heard For Whom the Bell Tolls on my crappy AM/FM stereo clock radio, stayin up way past my bedtime listening to the Metal Shop radio show. First ever Metalica track I heard. But "Creeping Death" is my fave now. So sinister performed live. It's tough to beat their '91 Moscow show. 1.6 mil fans shouting "Die! Die!" back at James, Lars, Kirk, and Jason. Find it online.

[@metalrules1135]

The riding the rollercoaster analogy is a pretty good one for the entire Thrash genre. That juxtaposition of different tempos, transitions, starts and stops, and change ups is par for the course. This album is one of the all time greats and upped the ante for the genre at the time. The guitar sound on this record is fantastic. Definitely do Master of Puppets. It's a progression from this one, but this one is my personal favorite Metallica record because it turned the corner for me and sent me down the Thrash rabbit hole when it came out.

[@ImThe5thKing]

As I'm sure you guessed, For Whom The Bell Tolls is about war, and the crazy guitar noises at the end in place of what would normally be a solo are supposed to emulate soldiers screaming on the battlefield

[@theprisonmetaller7005]

Going into the old school metal. This album is the gateway for me in metal.

One of my favorite "hype" tracks is For Whom The Bell Tolls, live Woodstock 94.

The story of Passover and it kicks off my Seder every single year.

Your insight on the guitar sound was great. I play guitar and agreed as well about many of the parts and changes.
