Top 10 Overrated Metallica Songs (OVERRATED ≠ BAD)

#metallica
OVERRATED IS NOT A SYNONIM FOR BAD, BEAR THAT IN MIND! This is also my opinion so if you disagree, give your own statements POLITELY.
#metal #rock #ranking

[@stangerdeath9555]

Your opinions are surprisingly similar to mine. I dont get why people see ftb as some god tier song that descented from heavens or some shit. To me it ranks propably around top 40-50. Sandman and NEM are overplayed but their not bad songs or anything Master of puppets to me is unnecesserily long, without the interlude it wouldn't even make the top 50 fuel is kinda overrated i quess. To me the song has always been kinda meh Seek and destroy is overplayed but the song kinda became the "Iron maiden song" of metallica (The song that's played at every show) so i think that's understandable. I do actually like the song quite a bit but there are better ones on KEA Whiskey in the jar sounds like dogshit imo If darkness had a son is 3-4 minutes too long but it has a couple of cool riffs here and there Harvester of sorrow and For whom the bell tolls have the same problem tbh Both start great but then the song doesn't really go anywhere and gets repetive

[@vinceyrankings]

Holy crap!!! Finally someone who comprehends my opinion!! MOP is actually one of my favorites and my placement in the catalog for it is #21/119. Whiskey is a song i never got into, it's not terrible, has a few cool riffs and sections but i just cannot stand those over the top vocals and specially the main riff, it sounds so silly, clumsy and ugly... i trult don't know what ppl see in this song.... Ftb is a great song but it's NOT GOD tier like you say. A god tier song for me is Disposable Heroes and a few pop songs like Meet Me Halfway or It's been so long (Fnaf2 song). Yeah, i just needed to get that off my head. FTB could have been shorter imo Harvester sounds really good live imo

[@stangerdeath9555]

@@vinceyrankings thanks for the reply. Mop used to be my favourite back when i was 15 (im 20 now) but i overlistened to it and with time i got bored with it. The only thing that still feels fresh to me is the interlude. Lots of live versions sound more energetic which makes them often sound better. Whiskey is a song i would never put to my playlist but i do often need to listen to it on sauna because my little brother decides the music there mostly, but i quess that means i dont hate it exactly. I also agree that disposable heroes is a god tier song tho there are couple song by metallica i like more which might surprise you. The frayed ends of sanity, Where the wild things are and Through the never are propably my favourites

[@vinceyrankings]

@@stangerdeath9555 Even if you liked songs like Some Kind of Monster, Cure or If Darkness. I'm completely fine with that.. I really like those you've mentioned. Wild Things is the perfect example of a basic but amazing song and it's truly perplexing they've never played it live (..And Justice for Jason XD) After losing Dave, Cliff and specially Jason, they've kind of lost their touch or inspiration from St Anger onwards. Really? Your younger brother likes Whiskey in the Jar?! HAHA, not surprised. Yeah the message of this video is just that this songs are mostly good but not god tier aside from maybe MOP

[@stangerdeath9555]

@@vinceyrankings My little brother is more of a casual listener who listens to metallica, rammstein and "radio rock" i quess. It's actually kinda funny how he sometimes tries to be super musical about stuff but his fav songs are stuff like Enter sandman because he doesn't really dig further down a bands catalog than spotify top 10 or something

master of puppets being on this list hurt me. its probably my favorite song of all time (for about 3 years now) and that second opening riff in the song probably being one of my favorite riffs ever because not only is it fun to play its also just so good. its such a great song and i dont think its over rated at all.

[@vinceyrankings]

I replace it with the Memory remains

[@vinceyrankings]

I actually replace MOP with The Memory Remains bcs that song is good but not great and has some weird vocals. I'd give that a 5,6/10.

what? the most overrated song is: 1. Whiskey in the jar. every, EVERY and i mean absolut E V E R Y other Cover song is 956959595 times better. I hate it when they play whiskey on a METAL concert. ➡(best cover songs: breadfan, mercyful fate, the wait, its electric, turn the page, astronomy... etc) 1.2 enter sandman! there is no other song that is so "bad" but popular. The song is basicly just one lame riff... and it is stolen by "Stone" from the song "get stoned".... the song "get stoned" is better lol.

[@vinceyrankings]

never been to a show of them, but I'll probably go in 2025 since I do not want to hear If Darkness Had a Son, that song is so overrated and I don't like it. But I bet that song will be one of the "good and classic songs" from the new albums. I haven't even listened to the entire cover of Whiskey bcs my brain just asked me to pause it, it was awful.

you should put innamorata, it's slow, boring, I literally slept when I heard it, but people love because I dont know

[@vinceyrankings]

I agree it should have been 7 min or smth but IDHAS gets a lot of popularity it's not worth of. That song is boring, wacky main riff, too repetitive, lazy lyrics, HORRIBLE SOLO and never liked the raspy vocals. Inamorata doesn't have those problems imo (maybe it's repetitive) Same for You Must Burn, never been a fan of that one either.

[@ryanforsythe]

Seeing Fade to Black at three hurt a tad as it’s my all time favorite Metallica song, but I completely agree with your number 1 selection. Seek & Destroy is easily the most overrated Metallica track.

[@Ella-li3sd]

I agree with everything you said about Harvester. It's just the same riff over and over throughout the song, the solo is boring and plain and the chorus is basically James just yelling "Harvester of Sorrow". It's a good song with amazing lyrics, but very overrated

[@vinceyrankings]

You should watch Become The Knight's video on this song, it's pretty interesting.

[@tog9341]

I appreciate the video but to make an opinion on this viable you actually have to explain why something is overrated. MOP might be one of the most overplayed songs ever, but if it's SO GOOD that it excuses it then it's not. You have to actually explain what about the song you don't like. As an example, a valid criticism about MOP is the fact that it drags on and on and on, it's reasonable. Then, if you want to talk about how overplayed songs overshadow other and better ones, the right video would be: "10 Metallica songs that deserve more justice" Hope I explained myself

[@Dollie99]

Im considering your are a young person but I do not agree with most of this list. MOP, FWTBT, FTB, SnD, ESM, we’re absolute game changers in their time. And the fact they are still relevant today shows how important they are. Harvester is a great song but more of a filler. NEM always had a hard time liking that song since it came out 30years ago. My wife loves it, figures. Overplayed yes, but it does not mean overrated.

[@davorbrijacak]

I like the list and agree with your points for the most part. I don't agree with Harvester, it's good example of mid paced heaviness but I do think Leper Messiah, The Thing That Should Not Be and Eye of the Beholder are underrated in this regard. Whiskey in the Jar is a good cover overall, but Thin Lizzy version is so much better that I have to agree.

[@vinceyrankings]

I think One deserves to be overhyped so I'd say it's overplayed and Blackened is my favorite from AJFA but I perfectly understand all of your choices. Whiskey In The Jar should take 4th place at least LOL Fuel is extremely overrated. Only the intro is good.. the main riff is clumsy and the song is just confusing. I'd say it's not necessarily a bad song but very comparable to a mid-budget hollywood movie if you get what I mean.

[@vinceyrankings]

No Remorse is a killer song and I don't see why Metallica plays If Darkness at every show.. Imagine how happy ppl would be with them playing Struggle Within, Escape, All Nightmare Long, Trapped Under Ice, Wild Things instead of that thing.

[@GabrielePelligra]

I think that overrated is the wrong word to describe these song, because some like fade to black and master of puppets are actually works of art. Of course they are the most streamed song so people don’t know that Metallica have made a lot of other beautiful songs. Personally I really like harvester of sorrow, I think it gives a lot of power and badness but I agree it is a bit ripetitive.

[@PhantomFilmAustralia]

I think there is a lot of misconception of an overplayed song being an overrated song. If you have anything too much too often, it spoils how special it is, and an overindulgence of being force-fed even your favorite food makes you want to throw up. Oversaturation of a song dilutes its genius to the point of "cookie-cutter pop song" perception. The song loses its edge, cult status, and commercializes the song with no true appreciation of insight, composition, or lyrics. There are many great songs that music stores employees once loved but now hate are the very songs that almost every potential customer trying out a guitar plays in the store. The overplaying of _Smoke on the Water, Nothing Else Matters, Stairway To Heaven_ make music store employees perceive these as "overrated" and make them want to throw up.

[@vinceyrankings]

Very good comment dude. You defined very well what the misconception was and gave a good example. Yeah, If Darkness Had A Son is an example bcs it just became popular and somehow commercialized without even being good enough to be considered an "average song" thus it shouldn't have been a single. That song is so weird, repetitive and makes up for an annoying listen. (*it's just my opinion*) The solo is easily worse or as bad as the one in ManUNKind

[@bigturdgames9802]

Seek and destroy is MEGA overrated the song is kinda weak and is really overplayed

Finally someone who's with me!

@@vinceyrankings song is good but is overrated

[@kg0173]

I like it a lot and don't think its overrated. Overplayed, probalby. Why weak, the riff is great? Its a 50% Sucking My Love cover. Then the whole kill em all album is weak? No way! Weak songs are only on St.Anger album, few on ReLoad, and 72 seasons (just have listened to it couple times).

@kg0173 it isn't that strong anymore because it's really overplayed so it lost the power and the song feels repetitive
