(Reaction) Metallica - ... And Justice For All

[@charleshendrix3137]

The guitar tone on this album is just perfect.

[@scottg1911]

Hell yeah man, I just ordered a new Mesa boogie mark V yesterday so I can get the Mark IIC+ amplifier sound that was on this album

[@Mirzuh]

Drums too

[@martinvarasrojas3566]

Charles Hendrix bass too.

[@ECxTheMaster]

@@martinvarasrojas3566 what bass?

[@martinvarasrojas3566]

Dark Magician the bass

[@Zapattack321]

My favorite album of all time. From Blackened to Dyers Eve, grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. Hetfield is the best down picking rhythm guitar player, period new paragraph. Many of the songs he writes are what I call 5 part; intro, beginning, middle, end, outro and he does it to perfection.

[@echopryme]

1000% agreed! Its like they KNEW they were about to go radio as shit and just decided "Fuck it... everyone is gonna think we suck by comparison to THIS... So let's KILL it!!"

[@nobodyimportant69]

Definitely another masterpiece. The tempo changes, the softness, aggression, the drum changes in beats and tempo, just a magnificent song all around. One of Metallicas best works of art. Cool reaction Dave. 🔥🔥

[@dmwalker24]

This album is (imo) the peak of Metallica composition. Every single song practically has movements. They took the time to develop musical themes, and then explore them through variation. These are not just songs to fill air time on the radio. These are works of art. Just listen to that recapitulation back to the original theme after the solo. That's classical composition. It's not quite that sophisticated, but honestly a hell of a lot more sophisticated than most rock bands.

[@I_dont_understand_25]

"Halls of justice painted green money talking" so true . one of my all time favorite songs

[@vikingnorm6935]

Power wolves at your door, hear them stalking

[@stigpetersen9701]

Please react to the live version of this song from the concert in Seattle 1989. The stage performance, the ferocity and the unexpected ending of the song/performance is epic and mindblowing 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥

best if he watches the entire concert in Seattle 89

[@ny2979]

Very aggressive album. Every song is legendary on that album

[@zeller3228]

this was the "sellout" album to the old timers. like me. i appreciate it now, but it was not like lightening or puppets.

[@shallex5744]

@@zeller3228 ride the lightning was a 'sellout' album for having an acoustic guitar ballad on it. kill 'em all was a 'sellout' album for signing to a major record label

Metallica is a worldwide organization with an office in every country. Their wealth, status, influence is cosmic.

[@candisham1978]

This has been my favorite song to work out to forever🥰

[@YaHUKaB_ShaRaYAL_YaShaRAL]

I do not understand why other reactors are not reacting to this song? This is one of the best songs off of this album! ...And Justice For All 🗽⚖️ This song is about how WE ALL get done wrong by this corrupt justice system!

[@Lord_Raptor]

"A sense of duality" I love that description.

[@FandangoHoward]

Dude you really hit the nail on the head around 5:30 ish when you said there was a kind of, like, calm angry energy coming through in this song. I would call it righteous anger, because it's anger at directed unfair and unjust system of "justice" The whole album kinda has a a sort of anti-establishment theme to it; Blackened talks about MAD and how it can only end in the destruction of the earth. Eye of the Beholder is about the control of freedom of expression by politicians. The Shortest Straw is about suppressing and demonizing certain political schools of thought. One is based on an anti-war book called Johnny Got His Gun. Even the songs that aren't explicitly political, like Dyers Eve or Harvester of Sorrow (which talk about parenting issues like child abuse and sheltering your child from the real world) can be interpreted as being about government and politics if you choose to take it that way. You've inspired me to listen through this entire album again with the lyrics in front of me.

[@ac8210]

8:12 “what is this” *headbangs anyways* lmao that my reaction also

[@pabirtz]

This song is simply perfect at so many levels!!

[@kellrenegade1407]

I love that you got that headbangin stank face in the same spots that have made me go RAWR since i was 13 :)

[@l.a.oskarqueenny1990]

Finally someone who really pay attention to the lyrics and more important to the music...... Good videos, keep them coming

[@brandoncrow3741]

The "tightness" of the main riff is partially due to the drummer accenting the riff with the toms in unison, then at the end it's sounds looser because the drums just play a straight beat under the riff, which opens up the sound more and makes room for the harmony guitars on top. Just masterful arranging from a group of guys in their mid twenties...🤘

[@jonkwape3097]

Btw, it's very unique to see a person react to Metallica, or perhaps most bands, starting from their earlier material as compared to usual hit songs. Kudos for that.

[@jtfree348]

One word sums this song up for me, and always has since I bought this album in 1988!! "HEAVY!!"

[@zls9890]

If you haven't already, you should check out "Eye of the Beholder". Lyrics are ON POINT!

[@addi7719]

A song so heavy even the camera was head banging :)

[@GSpareBurner]

The duality symbolism in the beginning is very accurate

[@kingtylermt]

This is my fav Metallica song of all time

[@morbidsasquatch9640]

Those solid power cords that follow that riff are fire. 12:34

Hi. I've got a Metallca tattoo. I know you don't care. I love your reaction channel. You have good taste in music.

[@whatitdodave]

Of course I care. Thats awesome!

this was the album that forever changed them.

Great Reaction! Love this song.!

You are the best reactor to metallica ! Thanks

My number 1 Metallica song🤘

[@joshuakellison5697]

Best song they ever recorded.

[@julianurtz1115]

This whole album start to finish is bleeding with emotion

[@lou3778]

Metallica are a perfect combination of early Black Sabbath and punk rock. Masterful transitions, insane riffs, fast, bass heavy, and music that perfectly captures the meaning of the lyrics. IDK of any other band that has done it better than them in their first four albums.

[@smmusicplus96]

Funny how this song from '88 is so relevant today.

[@mikaeldk5700]

4/4 - 2/4 4/4 - 4/4 The foundation of the song.

[@addie3235]

My fave off this album is Eye Of The Beholder, To Live Is To Die or Blackened but I love all of Metallica. (I simp for Kirk Hammett) 😂🤫🤫

[@gangstersquadbros]

Al Pacino should sing this song because the movie and this track really go hand and hand and I love it

My favorite album of theirs. This or the Black album. Should cover some country music too. Can I suggest, Waylon Jennings I have always been Crazy. Chris Stapleton Tennessee Whiskey,

[@KevinDurbin]

Of Wolf & Man (Black Album).................. you must do this, you know it

[@JHN980610]

so if you didn't know this song is about a soldier whose body is terribly damaged by a landmine that he steps on losing his arms legs sight and hearing IM NOT JOKING. Any time i hear this song i cry because knowing that my dad was a soldier and that could of happened to him its just terrifying.

[@dknollRX7]

That’s their song, One, not AJFA.

[@clonexx]

The scooped mids tone of this album is amazing. It’s terrible in a live setting because you can’t cut through, but for an album where you can really tweak the mix, it’s a really heavy ass tone that’s in your face with a wall of sound. It’s too bad that the actual bass is really just the guitars, they turned the bass virtually off on this album out of not only grief from cliffs death but also from a lack of confidence in Jason’s ability (which was unfounded, Jason is an amazing bassist, just very different from Cliff and Rob). The song is essentially about our corrupt justice system, still very relevant today. Money is everything, poor people sit in jail, rich people walk.

[@crnastranamjeseca2733]

The songs about the corrupt system of America’s government ironically goes great with whats happening rn

[@liarliarpumpkineater4808]

Indeed, but the lyrics of this song can be applied to any political party for all time (I assume your talking about the democrats stealing the election and destroying people like mines livelyhood, but maybe not). Just like master of puppets... there will always be drugs, and there will always be corrupt politicians.

If I die to music please let it be metallica

[@thatshittysnarefromSTanger]

....and justice for all has got to be the most "thrash" sounding album, other than kill 'em all. jasons bass influance made things alot more gnarly than youd think, but looking at the new albums the bass is missing hardcore

[@charleshendrix3137]

He also wrote the main riff to Blackened

[@Bigdih]

Idk this album is heavy af

[@jpgduff]

there is no bass on this album. Master is their peak. Never the same after Cliff.

[@FIRE-LOTUS]

Thrash? I mean this albums got a lot of progressive time signatures in it, which is definitely for thrash, especially the time this came out. They even added power metal harmonies in this song. Album was experimental and they never come back to it ever again.

[@sailor7381]

time is the enemy. and father death. which is time.... a circle... not my fault!

[@F150fx2sporT]

Remember to watch the lyric videos 🤘🏼

[@malwynnecerwin9310]

You used the word aggression. I get more of a sense of quiet desperation and barely restrained frustration. Indeed the whole album is one of unfocused anger and depression. It makes the entire album brilliant. This song in particular is the perfect example. The intro and break down guitar melody is almost a parody. Fake Grandeur and arrogant pomposity gradually dying under its own weight as it hits the wall of harsh guitar tone

[@aWhimTested]

This album was a lot of their being technical just for technicality’s sake, showing what they could do. It’s great but the production is lacking, specifically bass

Someone explain to me the phenomenon of 'reaction videos' as I don't get it. Non productive self-indulgent monetary edeavour - that's what it stands for me.

[@whatitdodave]

Some people enjoy watching others experience music they like for the first time. Sounds like you don’t like that. I love watching people enjoy music I like for the first time.

[@ltrzepalko]

@@whatitdodave I appreciate the time you devoted to answering my contestant comment. I recognize the argument you make about people liking what you do but still, I don't see value of it. People tend to indulge themselves in the least valuable behaviours (e.g. pornography) so it doesn't stand as an argument itself - it's not enough to say that people like it. Not for me. The phenomenon started about five years ago, when people started posting their reaction-videos to the 'Force Awakens" trailer. I see the entrepreneurship aspect of it but I call into question that it stands for anything but self-indulgence.

[@Jerkturtle]

No one is forcing you to watch man. I happen to love your reactions Dave... Keep Rocking my man 🤘
