Nothing Else Matters - The Metallica Story ┃ Documentary

Metallica is an American heavy metal band. The band was formed in 1981 in Los Angeles by vocalist/guitarist James Hetfield and drummer Lars Ulrich, and has been based in San Francisco for most of its career. The band's fast tempos, instrumentals and aggressive musicianship made them one of the founding "big four" bands of thrash metal, alongside Megadeth, Anthrax and Slayer. Metallica's current line-up comprises founding members and primary songwriters Hetfield and Ulrich, long-time lead guitarist Kirk Hammett, and bassist Robert Trujillo. Guitarist Dave Mustaine (who went on to form Megadeth after being fired from the band) and bassists Ron McGovney, Cliff Burton (who died in a bus accident in Sweden in 1986) and Jason Newsted are former members of the band.

I mean, it's easy to hate James, but at the same time I feel for him. Born in a family that locked him out of activities, health, and probably friends. Mother died when he was 16 for beliefs and his father left. His brother was his only family before Metallica. You can guess why he built up such an ego. Not to mention anger issues that he lashed out on Mustaine, which also was completely crazy when drunk, and Dave's dog too, on that one incident, back in the days. And poor Jason took it all from an emotionally stunted man who really never grew up and was scarred after he lost to an horrible accident his foster big brother Cliff. It's sad, really.

The Black Album is sort of like James' autobiography in many ways, and very relatable to other 70s and 80s kids who were repressed/sheltered for religious reasons. Usually that type of over-parenting backfires in very dramatic and sometimes fatal ways. The world got an angry young James Hetfield who happened to become one of the best guitarists in metal. One thing his mom did right was sign him up for those piano lessons!

[@firstnamelastname5899]

Check your facts. One thing his mom did right a year before she died was buy him his first guitar from a school friend for $200.

And they do whatever the fuck they want. Because it's a metal thing to not stick to conventions and labels. Metal is more than just thrash.

[@bassymichaelis2244]

Man I love your documentaries! i listen to them many times. The titles you use are so epic and a nice nod to the band's songs.

[@100chuckjones]

this is the second documentary I've watched of yours. Great work. Here's to hoping you pop 50k subs soon. you deserve it.

Correction: - Bob Rock introduced Metallica to the idea of using D standard and Eb tuning during The Black Album, not Drop D.

[@kevinsmith7-7-7]

RMTV, Thanks for another great doc cheers 2021

[@MetalmcBiff]

I know Bob Rock said that he introduced D standard to Metallica, which is strange. The Thing That Should Not Be off of Master of Puppets from ’86 was recorded in D standard tuning.

[@fam.hunger5244]

@@MetalmcBiff absolutely! I always found Rocks comment about that ridiculous.

[@MetalmcBiff]

@@fam.hunger5244 I don’t know about ”ridiculous”, since he seems to recall a specific exchange that prompted it. I’m sure he influenced the band in terms of tuning, etc. But the notion that they were previously unaware of alternate tunings is demonstrably inaccurate.

[@RAWMUSICTV]

I think what Bob Rock says is either miss interpreted or he's not clear. I think he's specifically meaning to say "during the black album" he simply brought the idea up that they experiment with other tunings.

[@rune288]

First comment I see is someone dissing lars. He helped pioneer metal as we know it today. What have you done?

[@dissected731]

People are arrogant and forget quickly nowdays

[@jakeb6909]

Well if you noticed he put that in quotes because the narrator of this documentary said that but you knew that already...oh wait lol

Great documentary man, well put together... heard a couple of things I hadn't previously! 🤘Steve

[@judie101]

thank you for this New Years present 👍

[@Noorduif]

Cliff, we miss you

[@WackedOutCookie]

Man this was very well done. You definitely earned my subscription.

[@RAWMUSICTV]

Greatly appreciated!

[@jessicasabino3002]

Thank you for this videos ❤

[@u.s.n.retired1995]

Very interesting. Man, I don't keep up with this kind of music but, have at least heard songs here are there, definitely know the name of the band. The way Cliff passed almost made me cry. Talent is talent and I respect anyone who has it.

[@xxxxbigrich5752]

Incredible work by you putting the awesome piece of work out there. As a Metallica fan since kill em all thanks bro! 👊🏽

[@OrionOodama]

Great job and presentation! Thank you. It took decades to finally take the plunge. I'm just happy and satisfied knowing "Nothing Else Matters" and at least having in their repertoire that I could tolerate. Over two decades later, now happily exploring/repeat playing the first three and "Black" album. I just wish and imagining what would it be if Cliff still around when they collaborated with Bob Rock the first time. Black album would be a lot better, and more commercially successful.

[@Kornkitt3n]

i was 14 and into classic rock at the time, for whatever reason i found kill em all recommended to me on KZbin. hearing hit the lights, i was hooked instantly. 6 years later and it's still my favourite album of all time, im so happy just by chance that i listened to that album as an introduction to metallica

[@drdouchenozzle3556]

Saw my idols live at aftershock and it felt like a dream I'm within a few hundred feet from legends. Absolutely love Metallica man oh man was that show wild aftershock was also my first festival and all of my friends and it was my girlfriend first concert experience ever. .. safe to say they nailed it

[@thehorseman1806]

I was into Skee-low and his rap song Baller when I heard Metallica's Wherever I May Roam on the radio. Been a rocker ever since....

[@stratrovarius]

It`s a documentary featuring a lot of stuff i`ve never heard on the other 129 Metallica documentaries i`ve seen so far....so... yeah. Good job.

[@robhtp3817]

Great Documentary ~ much appreciated

[@ricardomezamarroquin2073]

Sin duda mi banda de Rock favorita, debo decir que parte de mí entiende el dolor del que luego fuera muy existiso con Megadeth, Dave Mustaine. No fue envidia, fue el sentirse abandonado. Saludos desde Costa Rica 🇨🇷

[@TerryT0114]

I was listening to Ratt, Crue, Maiden, Judas Priest, etc and then I heard Am I Evil and my life changed. Once I heard that song it completely changed what I listened to, how I dressed, my entire life. I became a MetalHead instantly and still am today. What I didn't see coming back then was how big Metallica would eventually become, the first time I saw them was shortly after Cliff passed, there was probably 6k people for the Damage Inc tour. The next time they came on their own was in support of the Justice album an they sold out two shows in a NBA arena. Seattle 89, still my favorite concert ever because of how crazy the crowd was. The last time Metallica came to Seattle was in 2017 and they filled a NFL stadium, literally filled the place. It's unreal to me how big they've become, back in the mid 80's I felt like they were my own because hardly anyone was listening to them where I was. Now Enter Sandman is played in grocery stores and is used as the intro for the Tennessee football team. Maybe it's not Tennessee? Some big college football team plays Sandman as the team comes on the field, it's pretty cool. Metallica is like an old friend now, I love them. I'm glad they booted Dave cause I love what he's created too.

[@chasewillian9010]

Awesome man. Thanks so much!

[@marovic78]

Great documentary, great band. 🤘

[@lynettesmith9133]

I am 64. Metallica to me is the new generation of rock that The Who, Zeppelin, Floyd, etc. classic band.

[@SteveRicardo777]

This was awesome to watch.

[@MinTerGyi007]

Thanks 4 sharing admin ♥️🌹💪👍😘

[@andrewbako9494]

As a fan of Metallica since 1985 and have to say I clicked on this halfheartedly thinking it would be rehashed information...i was wrong and learned a few things I did not know about the members. Awesome job!

[@GHOSTLYWHISPERS]

The only reason why Jason was treated like shit was because they felt Jason was trying to replace Cliff and they wasn't ready to let the ghost of Cliff go

[@jimweed945]

There was no trying. Jason did replace Cliff. Then Rob replaced Jason. Both replacements were as, Bass players. Not human beings. Anybody would have got the same treatment. In the doc, and other interviews, James said, they were trying to get Jason to stop bein a, 'Fan'. Which i'm sure would be hard to do. Just like letting go of Cliff. But credit to Newstead, for coming out the other side of all that BS. I heard the vibe from the auditions where pretty cold. One guy flew all the way from the east coast, to SF. Only for for James to say, 'Next'. After seeing the guy was dressed like a Poser. That band was beyond broken at that time. They were back on the road, what, a month after Cliff passed? So from Day 1. Jason had to be the, 'easy target'. He put up with some major BS. James, and Lars throwing their weight around, cos they could.

[@ALXG]

Bob Rock’s era has the most warm, harmonic and well crafted Metallica’s music and sound. I personally think he’s genius. I love all albums BTW.

[@WinterInTheForest]

He turned them gay.

[@enzovasintonm4191]
