[NoHero9]

alright, im downloading audacity, and soon I will see if I am capable of recording on my computer.

[NoHero9]

im officially the happiest person in the world, it Fucking works!!! thanks for the advice! :thumb:

[Huber]

how do you upload your part onto here?

Upload it to somewhere, then post the link. http://www.soundclick.com is a good place, but there are others.

[PepsiMetal]

I think it'll be tough for some threads though. Like vocals in the Maiden thread and drummer(s) in Slipknot. But that's too bad.

Many people flamed joey when he did that drum solo, so let's see them show their skills now. :lol:

[Thor]

I think it'll be tough for some threads though. Like vocals in the Maiden thread and drummer(s) in Slipknot. But that's too bad.
I've got a friend who can record drums for Slipknot. He's a ****ing beast, he plays Slayer songs in his spare time. :thumb: Vocals for Maiden would be tough though.

...If we are having a contest, we need to do a harder song than Seek and Destroy. Your thoughts would be nice.

[fatbandit]

Battery. If you ruin it, then it won't be any worse than doing Seek and Destroy in a mediocre fashion. If you pull it off, then my ****ing God, it will be sweet. The intro harmonies = sweetness.

[Joe]

Or something like Master of Puppets. It's a cool enough song that is really impossible to mess up, and if it's pulled off it'll be pretty sweet.

The intro harmonies = sweetness.

lol agreed, it's one of my favorite intros along with FTB and Blackened and some others

[Deth]

He better be an MXer though. Cause if hes' not *shakes fist*.

[Thor]

He better be an MXer though. Cause if hes' not *shakes fist*.
He was earlier, but he hasn't been for quite some time now.

[fatbandit]

Boo sucks, you're making me want to have a go at Battery now, lol. I'll have to stay out of this thread while its going on so I don't get jealous! :p

And that intro is sweetness. I recorded it with loads of tracks all on bass once just for a laugh, heh, that intro can't be beaten, on a quality stereo (to bring out the acousticness), with enough volume. Not that it has to be too loud, just loud enough. Good times...

:smash:

[Thor]

If I had to pick a harder song I wouldn't want to do Battery. I would rather do Creeping Death or The Thing That Should Not Be.

Someone bump my cover band thread back up. :thumb:

[Deth]

Consider it bumped.

[fatbandit]

Thing is... Creeping Death is even simpler than Seek and Destroy... Would I be right in saying this will be quite a popularity contest too? If so, then I'm aware a lot of people don't like TTTSNB (don't get me wrong, I think its great).

Call of Ktulu would be pretty slick, especially the lead bass licks :)

[Chu]

Creeping Death's a favourite, from alot of people, even non-Metallica fans, as far as I know.

I wouldn't mind doing the vocals for that either :)

[Thor]

The bass licks are pretty cool, but I would prefer doing a song I already know how to play. Let's do The Thing That Should Not Be.

[Chu]

Grrr. Ok, I will learn 3 songs. Seek and Destroy, Creeping Death and The Thing That Should Not Be. I think everyone should do the same, and when we have learnt them, we can decide which song would be best for us to do, you get me?

[Thor]

Well I'm already done if those are the 3 that we are going to decide on.

[NoHero9]

I think that the thing should not be would be far too simple, but if that is what is decided on, I could easily do it. too easily.


Edit: For guitar that is.

seek and destroy, i know could do rythm, my 24 fret guitar isnt here :upset:

and I could learn creeping death, but I would much rather do others.....

[fatbandit]

Aren't you willing to learn any new songs, Metal_head? :confused:

:smash:

[NoHero9]

Aren't you willing to learn any new songs, Metal_head? :confused:

:smash:

agreed. different songs would be good....master of puppets would be a smashing good time, easy but cool.

[fatbandit]

Hmm. The Four Horsemen would be pretty immense too.

[fenderbender89]

The new Metallica song Im learning is Bleeding Me it is a very good song and has a kick *** solo too.
I need to go down half a step but I dont want too I still want to play all the standard tuning Metallica songs too. One, MOP, Creaping Death, Fade to Black...

sounds the same in standard.

[Endless Obsession]

The Four Horsemen would be awesome, but it would be hard. Thats my vote. I dont think The Thing that should not be is a good idea. It gets boring.

And also can anyone who wants to post a recording and then some1 chooses the best one?

[FlyingPaul_83]

What kind of recording programs do you guys use?

[fatbandit]

It might be a little hard, but you have to beat what the other official threads are putting out...

:smash:

[Thor]

We have a good chance at winning because there are so many Metallica fans on MX.

OK, we need to begin voting. Everyone please say which song you want for us to cover.

[Endless Obsession]

We should find out what song we are doing and figure out the BPM so everyone can set a metronome when they record. It would be incredibly helpful.

My Votes

1. The Four Horseman
2 Creeping death
seek and destrow

[Deth]

*Sneaks behind Metal_Head and shanks him* Long Live the Opeth Thread! We'll destroy you!

[Thor]

*Sneaks behind Metal_Head and shanks him* Long Live the Opeth Thread! We'll destroy you!
How dare you! I'm the one that's running this show! :)

*shanks Creeping_Deth*

[FlyingPaul_83]

1. The four horsemen
2.Creeping death
3.Welcome home(sanitarium)

[Deth]

In help to you guys, out of the three FlyingPaul has, I would say Sanitarium, but your choice.

Ow, that shank hurt.

[fatbandit]

Well. Why not just record along to the CD? Then everybody has the right tempo.

[RustedPieces]

In help to you guys, out of the three FlyingPaul has, I would say Sanitarium, but your choice.

Ow, that shank hurt.
I would say The Four Horsemen. It's fun, fast, sounds good and shouldn't be too hard to do a good job on.

[Thor]

Well. Why not just record along to the CD? Then everybody has the right tempo.
That's what I was thinking. That would make the most sense.

[spenser93]

1. fight fire with fire
2. battery
3. trapped under ice
4. wiplash
5. blackened

[Endless Obsession]

I change my vote to Creeping Death first because if we do the 4 horsemen some pansy from the Megadeth forum will cry about it.

Also we should all agree on one tab of it so we all know we are playing the same thing.

[spenser93]

I change my vote to Creeping Death first because if we do the 4 horsemen some pansy from the Megadeth forum will cry about it.

lmao, how about fight fire with fire?

[fatbandit]

Well, the tabs don't have to correspond. I know I've learnt a lot by ear, and improvise little bits and fills, so as long as its in the same key, and the guitars are in tune with each other, there's no problem IMO.

Fight Fire With Fire doesn't show off enough to me...

[Endless Obsession]

Fight Fire With Fire doesn't show off enough to me...

Well it depends what instrument u play. If the two guitars play it slightly differently it will mess it up though.

[fatbandit]

I suppose so. For harmonies and the like especially... I'm just used to playing bass and being left to my own devices I suppose.

Have you thought of doing One?

[Chu]

I change my vote to Creeping Death first because if we do the 4 horsemen some pansy from the Megadeth forum will cry about it.
You're a ****en faggot.
It's usually ****en Metallica fan boys like you who cry that Mechanix is a copy of Four Horsemen.

[spenser93]

You're a ****en faggot.
It's usually ****en Metallica fan boys like you who cry that Mechanix is a copy of Four Horsemen.

are u dumb, he sed megadeth kids would cry cuz dave mustaine helped write it and he got kicked out of metallica, and it was still put on kill em all.

[TojesDolan]

What about The call of ktulu? That'd save some trouble with the singer issue.

[Huber]

If you guys give me the song you want to do, I can try and go record something. I got a little bit of playing time right now.

[Thor]

If you guys give me the song you want to do, I can try and go record something. I got a little bit of playing time right now.
Do Seek and Destroy! Quick!

We would still have a good shot at winning with that song.

[Huber]

Alright, I'll see what I can do.

[Endless Obsession]

Okay so its Seek and Destroy?

[ThrashMaster27]

are u dumb, he sed megadeth kids would cry cuz dave mustaine helped write it and he got kicked out of metallica, and it was still put on kill em all.

*Wrote all of it.

I vote The Four Horsemen. I doubt you'd get Megadeth fans 'crying' about it. It's a good song, so cover it.

[Endless Obsession]

*Wrote all of it.

I vote The Four Horsemen. I doubt you'd get Megadeth fans 'crying' about it. It's a good song, so cover it.

They would be annoyed though cause Mustaine wrote basically all of it.

[RustedPieces]

*Wrote all of it.

I vote The Four Horsemen. I doubt you'd get Megadeth fans 'crying' about it. It's a good song, so cover it.
Yeah he wrote it even before he joined Metallica. And I agree, no one is going to care if you do Four Horsemen.

[flamesofbodom]

Who cares? If it means that much do something of RTL or MoP

[ThrashMaster27]

Wait, I missed all the discussion. Has everyone already said what they're gonna be doing? Cause if The Four Horsemen comes into play, I wouldn't mind lending a hand.

[RustedPieces]

Yeah I'm pretty sure all the positions are already taken. You should help out on the Megadeth thread. Do The Mechanix :p

[Thor]

Here is what we are doing:

Seek and Destroy


No more complaining. It's what we are doing. We are already recording.

[RustedPieces]

Is there going to be specific judges, or is it just going to be a vote with everyone for the songs?

[Endless Obsession]

No more complaining. It's what we are doing. We are already recording.

I called rhythm guitar like on Thursday. Am i in?

[Huber]

Okay guys. I only got to do one take, so it's kind of sloppy. If I get a chance to re-do it I'll jump at it. I had never jammed to this song before so once again it's pretty sloppy. If anyone else does another by all means use there track, I'm not very happy with this one.

Here goes - http://s14.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3U28P3PAFILCT1DDIY0YB2V7DN

[spenser93]

which big muff did burton use, russian, or american, (USA NYC) the white or black 1, for the stupid people. jk

post ur recordings for all metallica songs here, i no i dont have the authority 2 tell u 2 do that but......sure

[Thor]

It's Ok, but it will do. If you ever get to record again, that's fine. I can deal with this one though. I'll try and have the bass done in the next day or so.

Did you play with the exact tempo of the song?

[Thor]

I called rhythm guitar like on Thursday. Am i in?
yeah, I said that you were doing all guitar work. Is that ok?

[Endless Obsession]

yeah, I said that you were doing all guitar work. Is that ok?

I probly cant do the solos, i can do James' part easy.

[Huber]

It's Ok, but it will do. If you ever get to record again, that's fine. I can deal with this one though. I'll try and have the bass done in the next day or so.

Did you play with the exact tempo of the song?

I played along too it. I had never done it before, so I was very "wobbly" at certain points. I have another chance to try it in about 30 minutes.

[Thor]

I played along too it. I had never done it before, so I was very "wobbly" at certain points. I have another chance to try it in about 30 minutes.
Well when you do it again, make it either a mp3 or WAV file. I can't do anything with these types of files.

[Huber]

Alrighty.

[Thor]

I think I'm just going to record the bass now since we are just going to play at the same speed as the song.

[Huber]

I didn't get to finish another take, sorry guys. I'll have to see when I can record something again...

[killswitchtony]

what song are you guys doing?

EDIT: oh crap, just noticed the big bold letters......

[Huber]

Seek and Destroy

[killswitchtony]

Seek and Destroy
i noticed, i was gonna' say if you were doing One.it would be sweet.

[blue3]

Seak and Destroy is an awesome song.

[Endless Obsession]

Seak and Destroy is an awesome song.

Can you play the solos?

[TojesDolan]

So...there are not going multiple songs per thread?

...

Ok, let's search for SaD and I'll try and learn it then upload a take to see if you like it.

[Deth]

Wow, you guys are way ahead of us.

[JACKROXYOU]

hmm seems do able

[podbassist]

well isnt it a contest? just thought id let u no.

[Thor]

well isnt it a contest? just thought id let u no.
Well instead of telling us in here why don't you help them pick a song?

[RustedPieces]

I've been trying to help the Megadeth guys with picking a song, but they don't seem to enthusiastic about it. I don't know if there going to do this thing.

[vashts80]

Something I just noticed is that during the Kill/Ride Medley on Cunning Stunts (during the Seek and Destroy part towards the end), Jason is playing with his fingers because he dropped his pick while he was like 100ft away from a mic stand

Edit: Hot ****, was that thing during Enter Sandman real, where the guy fell and all the **** went up in flames and all?

[Chu]

Edit: Hot ****, was that thing during Enter Sandman real, where the guy fell and all the **** went up in flames and all?
lol :lol:
I think it's pretty good, if I was there I would have freaked out something hardcore.
But if you look at the metal, you can tell it's staged.

P.S. How sick's Kirk's see-through guitar :o
And how shut down does Jason get when they're talking about it :p

[Thor]

Kirk's see through guitar? That's awesome, anyone have pics?

[DemonicRubberDucky]

Due to the recent influx of idiot threads regarding Metallica here is the OFFICIAL Metallica thread. Please post EVERYTHING Metallica related in this thread and DO NOT make any additional threads regarding Metallica.


Thankyou.

hey, when do you continue the story in your avatar?

[Chu]

Kirk's see through guitar? That's awesome, anyone have pics?
Well, I just checked Google images for a picture, but didn't find one, sorry.
It's kinda like a Glass guitar with blue liquid inside it, I don't know the name, but the things that are kinda like Snow Globes? :x

Idk if Metal Head found someone to do the lead, he thought i was gonna do it but im not good enough, so if not you can do the lead. Idk. Im doing the rhythm.

For Seek and Destroy if u can do it.

[Carlos Santana]

hey my nickname is "Fig" since my last name figueroa ppl call me "fig"

anyway how is the harmonizng gonna work out for the metallica songs

[Thor]

Well if someone wants to do lead, step up to the plate. I guess that R. Blythe just wants to do rhythm.

[Huber]

Well Sliptallica is still recording drums, so I guess that you could say that we just started. As soon as he is done I think that the process wil go much quicker.

I should have something better done by evening-ish tomorrow.

[Whale and Wasp]

I just fink that St anger is one of the best Metallica songs as well as master of puppets and enter sandman. i tried to play St. Anger on the guitar it is pretty tough,
1. i disagree that st anger is one of their best songs, it cannnot even be compared to the greatness of mop or sandman, but that is your opinion and i respect it

2. st anger.....tough on guitar.....is this a joke?

[RustedPieces]

2. st anger.....tough on guitar.....is this a joke?


It must be.

[fatbandit]

If you've just started playing, you might not be up to playing St Anger. I've never tried, not being a guitarist, so I wouldn't know.

[Huber]

St. Anger isn't hard at all, and I'm not a guitarist.

[DaveTheAmazing]

I Like Metallica Cuz They R Good Lols!

[fatbandit]

Well, listening to St Anger, I'm sure I could probably play it (I'm a bassist, so I have some degree of proficiency at yer basic Metallica powerchords :lol: ), though I'm not sure how hard it is at a beginner level still.

[LarsAgi007]

St. Anger isn't hard at all, and I'm not a guitarist.

I agree, I am a drummer, and I accually worked out a few songs pretty much strait away!

Unnamed feeling
Purify
Some kinda monster
S.t Anger (A little slower though)
Frantic (I did use tabs for this one, but is easy to play)

At band rehearsals, our bassist gets on drums, and I go on guitar, we often play the S.t Anger album, its too easy!

Congrats LarsAgi on your first 'Deth album :)

[fatbandit]

Cliff was good. But not the best out of the 100 there. Billy Sheehan gets my vote at the moment.

[i was promised lies]

why has no-one offered to take up the lead on seek and destroy, its not that hard

[Six Foot Revolver]

why has no-one offered to take up the lead on seek and destroy, its not that hard
If it's not that hard then do it yourself?

[fatbandit]

Thought of just going to the guitar forum and asking? There's plenty of talented guitarists in there that can play the lead for Seek and Destroy.

[i was promised lies]

well maybe i would, if i had enough adaptors to connect the guitar to the comupter etc

[fatbandit]

That's a pretty poor excuse if you ask me. I'm not going to rag on you saying you can't play it, but until proven otherwise, that's what I'd have to assume. You have a guitar lead I assume. You only need something that will cost you a dollar or so from an electronics shop. That won't break the bank, will it?

[fatbandit]

Excuse the double post. I know I'm doing it, so don't rag on me for it :rolleyes:

However, I was thinking. I know the 'next album' topic has been done to death, but... Would people object to the next album sounding like I Disappear, No Leaf Clover and -Human (obviously, without the orchestra)? I think it could be pretty neat. Like Re/Load, but miles better.

[Thor]

Well it wouldn't make me extremely happy, but as long as they don't do St. Anger again I'm OK with that. ReLoad is the only new album I own and it's all right.

[spenser93]

my freind can do it but again no mic, he uses a jackson dmg dinky, through a crate mx10 with a zakk wylde overdrive pedal, but hes never home and can never come over.

I really would have in enjoyed hearing the peoples rendition of Fight Fire with Fire............

I'm gonna say what every other fan is saying....'old skool metal!'.
Yeah, No Leaf Clover is an awesome song, so is -Human, but I think its about time they thought about bringing out a thrash album. They haven't done any real heavy stuff since 1990 with Black Album so we've been waiting 15 years. Yeah they tried new stuff with the Loads and St Anger but they really do need to bring back some old skool influence. Its been long enough now.

[Chu]

You know, St. Anger is still heavy, and pretty thrashy. If you can get past the annoying drum sound, and Hetfield's voice.

my attempt at MoP, only guitars.

all lead solo parts were recorded in about 2 hours, no metronome so they blow balls. Also, in the main solo for the scratchy part, I just improv'd since I don't know how to play it. Also the song was recorded at different times, so sometimes its faster/different. o well.

setup= BC Rich, Marshall Amp

next on my list is probably (Welcome Home) Sanitarium

your guitar sounds very bassy

I figured the palm mutes would sound like crap when recorded, so I turned the bass way up...

Can you play the leads in Seek and Destroy?

[spenser93]

dude it sounds awsoem excetp the tone is all grungy.

[RustedPieces]

Are you downpicking in that recording?

[FlyingPaul_83]

downloading..... Thats awesome metal miltia :thumb: The bass is pretty high though. Nice job on the last solo man.

[Happy]

It's good, it might just be me or does the first solo sound a bit out of time?

Aye, I'll second that. You should play lead for us.

If only Sliptallica can ever get those **** drums finished.

whats up guys...just wondering what the word is on the new album?

[Endless Obsession]

They are in the studio.

[Thor]

Man, this is taking way too long to get the drums.

Does anyone want to take my spot as bassist? I'll still run the contest, but I'll just not play for you guys. I'm gonna play for RATM instead.

[Joe]

what song are we doing now? i haven't been on in days, sorry guys. my sis stole the freakin laptop, but it's ok i got a kickass new computer

[fatbandit]

Hey, far be it for me to say... But sure, I'll do bass for y'all ^_^

Pick a song, any song. Seek and Destroy ain't a problem for me, but is there a song people would rather do? A vote would be a useful thing, but we can't set up another thread for it.

[Joe]

i can do any rhythm if you give me a week or two to learn it properly. i'll do lead for certain songs

Here's my version of Welcome Home (Sanitarium). The program sucks (so there's an odd noise every 20 secs or so) and I'm not an amazing recorder

(i'll edit the YSI link)- nvm YSI isn't working. i'll edit it in later. it's a pretty cool version tho

[Chu]

Look out for LarsAgi's review of The World Needs a Hero, I asked him to post it here, I think it's a good album and it will cure alot of the Anti-Mustaine **** that's floating around this topic(?).

We can just count it here. Just ask like what song to do form any album and see what gets the most "wants" or something like that

[Deth]

You're in trouble if you're doing Seek and Destroy. Everyone else is going off the deep end. (peer pressure ++)

I was originally gonna do rhythm guitar, but u can cause my amp blew a fuse and its gonna be in the shop for weeks.

[killswitchtony]

i haven't been on in a while, just wondering if there has been a song selected yet, last i heard it was seek and destroy, but it seems like there is still a little decideing going on, so if you can let me know, and this voting thing sounds like a good idea, One has my vote

[Thor]

Well now that the new cover band thread is up someone needs to officially tell me who is doing what in that thread.

[Joe]

ok so we're doing Seek and Destroy. i can go downstairs and record it on audacity if you guys want. i'd just need settings. i have a boss Metal Zone pedal and a Line 6 Spider 212

edit: well i can do most, i just need to learn the chords behind the solo (not the part that's the chorus)

[Joe]

ok so it's been 4 hrs since i've posted here and i was the last post. come on guys, what's the deal? how's the song coming?

[\m/Pete\m/]

I'll do rhythm if Creeping Death gets the vote

[fatbandit]

Right... I can do Seek and Destroy on bass, no problem. Only problem is, when I record, it always records it as slightly distorted. I know this isn't a problem for you distortion laden guitarists, but how can I solve it? I've tried running at the lowest volume I can, and I'm running through the Line Out on my amp, so the quality shouln't be suffering.

Anyway, I'm happy to do Seek and Destroy, but in the 'Deth thread, they're planning Take No Prisoners, and if they pull that off, they will pwn us *so* badly. I still think we may need something more complex... My vote...? Maybe Battery or One?

I'll check back in her soonish. I have a little time before I go to my exam.

EDIT: Hmm. I just saw the rules thread. Seems some other threads are doing setlists (Maiden, Rage, ToT, maybe more...):confused:

If you guys want to put together 5 or so songs, go for it. If not, I still think we should change the song from Seek and Destroy?

My 5 suggestions would probably be...

Battery
Call of Ktulu
Sanitarium
No Leaf Clover (OMG, seckz...)
Seek and Destroy?

I can record any of them when I find a solution to recording well. I would have to learn about half of Ktulu, Sanitarium and No Leaf Clover from that list. I'm sure, however, that we'll have disagreement over songs, so... Discuss.

[FlyingPaul_83]

my five would be:
1. one(hehe)
2. harvester of sorrow
3. leper messiah
4. welcome home(sanitarium)
5. Fade to black

[fatbandit]

Hmm. Shocking recording. Loads of wrong things, inconsistent volume etc. I need to get the hang of recording. Anyway. Here's something for you. Comment on tone and quality of recording (ie, is it good enough for you guys).

http://s4.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=33T2XX4CTAKOQ2QDRJYW5MMEV3

I've come to the conclusion that Seek and Destroy on the album is too slow :(

:smash:

[Joe]

FlyingPaul_83-- my five would be:
1. one(hehe) - could do rhythm and/or lead
2. harvester of sorrow -need to learn
3. leper messiah - need to learn
4. welcome home(sanitarium) -could do rhythm and/or lead
5. Fade to black -could do rhythm and/or lead

ok i suggest nothing off of AJFA, the stuff is way too long and too many places to mess up (unless we did one). i'd rather not do fade to black because it would ruin it for me and probably other fans if we messed it up. sanitarium i've already recorded and can play the whole thing

i just recorded most of the S&D rhythm

[fatbandit]

Gocaps, have a listen to my rough recording, see how it goes. Might be an idea to see how well it lines up with yours, too.

[Joe]

it's a good recording, mine was just for the heck of it. i haven't listened to the song in a while. is yours timed with the album version?

[cliff solos for all]

its good

[cliff solos for all]

any news about a new metallica album?

[Happy]

Look out for LarsAgi's review of The World Needs a Hero, I asked him to post it here, I think it's a good album and it will cure alot of the Anti-Mustaine **** that's floating around this topic(?).

I don't think anyone here really is anti-Mutsaine (I love him), only metalli-noobs who come in here thinking he's a nasty guy without hearing any 'Deth songs.

[RustedPieces]

Metallica / Megadeth = best bands in the world.

[Chu]

Metallica / Megadeth = best bands in the world.
I agree with this statement.

But yeah, alot of the people in this thread were/are anti-Megadeth, I guess most of them actually gave Megadeth a listen though, which is a very good thing in my opinion. Everyone should be listenning to Megadeth.

[Deth]

*Looks at my user title.*

I agree with RustedPieces.

[vashts80]

If you were doing a 5 song set:

Puppets
Clover
One
Battery
Orion :x

:smash:
thats a really good recording and your technique is really good, not one mistake i noticed.
im being serious.
do you use a pick or fingers?

[fatbandit]

You guys serious? :amaze:

I thought it was pretty sloppy. Might go again another time. I need to add a second distortion/wah track though, for the fills. I decided against doing it at the same time as the main track.

Gocaps: Yeh, mine's timed with the studio version (which is what made me realise I hate the tempo).

Santana: Thanks! I use fingers normally, but I recorded that with a pick. It seemed more consistent for some reason. Its not my normal EQ, which is why I asked about it. It had to have a lot of bass scooped out of it, and my EQ is pretty much flat across the board on that recording. I can do more recordings soon though. Maybe one or two a day, if people know what songs they want me to do.

Do we want to go for... One off of KEA (Seek and Destory), one off of RTL, one off of MoP, one off of AJFA, and one off Black Album/S&M?

[Chu]

I just listenned to your recording of Seek & Destroy, pwnage :)

[Chu]

Do For Whom The Bell Tolls guys, it's fairly easy for guitar (And drums!), easy to pull off ;)
It would work really well in my opinion.

Edit: In my opinion, fatbandit could *easily* pull it off on bass too.

:P

[RustedPieces]

Well sure its easy, but it may not be a good competition song. If other bands do songs that are really hard and pull it off, For Whom The Bell Tolls might not do you guys any good.

[Chu]

But there's a difference between pulling it off, and pulling it off well.
I really think it's possible to do For Whom The Bell Tolls really well.

Edit: What about Fight Fire With Fire?

[fatbandit]

Hmm... Possibly. Would require more planning on my part to organise my effects, but its easily possible. I dunno. I'd look at the options on RTL first. If its possible, I'd be happy doing Call of Ktulu, for a start :p Or Creeping Death? I think those three are the competitors? Am I right?

I'm off for the night anyway, I'll catch up on the choices later guys.

:smash:

I don't believe anyone here could play that. Maybe parts of it, but as an entire song I don't think so.

*I could be wrong.

[Darkness]

I heard you guys were having some problems with the covers... whats wrong?

[Thor]

I heard you guys were having some problems with the covers... whats wrong?
Their drummer isn't doing anything.

[i was promised lies]

That's a pretty poor excuse if you ask me. I'm not going to rag on you saying you can't play it, but until proven otherwise, that's what I'd have to assume. You have a guitar lead I assume. You only need something that will cost you a dollar or so from an electronics shop. That won't break the bank, will it?

Sorry about the long reply time. My real problem is the tone of my guitar. I live in Australia and we have a certain company called Ashton Music. I have a guitar built by them, fortunately its no longer in production, but it has the stock pickups in it, therefore, it has a crap tone, maybe if I had some accessible money I could get it some replacement pickups, and now, I have the **** adapter, if you really want I can record the lead and post it here

[Joe]

Gocaps: Yeh, mine's timed with the studio version (which is what made me realise I hate the tempo).

Do we want to go for... One off of KEA (Seek and Destory), one off of RTL, one off of MoP, one off of AJFA, and one off Black Album/S&M?

ok now i'll do the same and see how it sounds together.

here's my idea list (with fb's idea)

KEA- S&D
RTL- FWTBT
MoP- Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
AJFA- One
Black or S&M- either Sad but True or No Leaf Clover

for whom the bell tolls would be fairly easy. i can do all of it except that one riff that kirk and james play (it's not technically a solo, but you guys know what i mean)

i can play a lot of the RTL solo, but nothing else of that song.

[metal_milita]

Why not One? I can play a fairly passable version of that song.
About the Seek Destroy thing, its like the only song I haven't bothered to learn (apart from the intro riff, thats kickass)

btw, thanks for your comments about the track I recorded.

[Chu]

You haven't tried that riff/solo have you?
It's not really that hard, I mean, I can play it :o

[Joe]

i haven't listened to your track i don't think.

and for my list i'm volunteering to play lead and/or rhythm for any of those songs (some would take some learning) but if anyone wants to step in and do work too be my guest

[Joe]

You haven't tried that riff/solo have you?
It's not really that hard, I mean, I can play it :o

The one in FWTBT? or in RTL? I tried the riff once for FWTBT but I forgot it. I can do most of the RTL solo but haven't really tried anything else in the song

[Chu]

The one in FWTBT? or in RTL? I tried the riff once for FWTBT but I forgot it. I can do most of the RTL solo but haven't really tried anything else in the song
FWTBT, I am almost certain you could play it man.

[Joe]

FWTBT, I am almost certain you could play it man.

Me too, it just would take time. I thought that riff that Kirk plays in the beginning would be hard but it's pretty simple

but now back to the list. what do you guys think???

[Demon King]

Kirk's riff on FWTBT isn't that hard...the hard riff on that is Cliff's part

[metallicapeppermint27]

FWTBT is pretty easy on guitar
y not try Creeping Death (Ride the Lightning) or Phantom Lord (Kill em All)

[fatbandit]

Uhm... I could play RTL, but my issue is remembering the order of things. That's the only problem I have with songs like One (which I pretty much have pat down).

To be honest, I need another patch lead for my pedals to be able to record FWTBT properly, and I'm skint.

And no, Cliff's intro isn't as hard as the middle riff which James and Kirk play.

I could possibly have a go at recording Sanitarium after my exam, but I may take a little time. Need to learn the second half.

Was your Seek and Destroy at the album version tempo gocaps?

[wicked_child]

FWTBT is pretty easy on guitar
y not try Creeping Death (Ride the Lightning) or Phantom Lord (Kill em All)

yeah, creeping death is really cool! if you want a real challenge, do call of ktulu, complete with the solo and growling wah bass. for KEA, why not play 4 horsemen?

[Happy]

Are you recording just one song? Can't you record say 5 and chose the best one?

[flamesofbodom]

Do Trapped Under Ice or RTL. Their both fun. Everyone does FWTBT.

[FlyingPaul_83]

so who is recording?

[cunning_stunt_77]

Yeh, ive heard like 4 different covers of FWTBT but none of RTL, if u can play the solo...

[FlyingPaul_83]

Yeh, ive heard like 4 different covers of FWTBT but none of RTL, if u can play the solo...


....that would be obscenely cool :thumb:

[flamesofbodom]

The solo isnt hard...just long

[fenderbender89]

There is a solo at the end but I would just call it an ending not a solo.

[flamesofbodom]

Not on RTL. There is on Creeping Death

[Happy]

He meat FWTBT methinks.

[fatbandit]

Right. What is the decision on RTL? My options would be... RTL, Ktulu, or Creeping Death. I need to learn half of Ktulu, and the whole RTL song if its one of them. I might try doing Sanitarium for you lucky chappies later though.

[FlyingPaul_83]

From a guitarists view it would be Call of ktulu,creeping death,RTL. The solo in RTL is way crazy.

[Happy]

It's really not that hard, the fact that it's two guitars playing the solo makes it sound hard.

[Thor]

If anyone here can play RTL with the solo, that's awesome.

[FlyingPaul_83]

can u post that in wmp form (windows media player) i dont got real.

oops sorry fir the double post.

[PepsiMetal]

How come I barely notice bass in most metallica songs. When they're on concerts, do they just give guitars too much volume and forgetting about bass? I was watching that rock in rio and they played creeping death and I couldn't notice bass until guitars stopped and rob kept playing bass. I guess it's noticable but it should probably be a little more.

That was good fatbandit. spenser93, you dont need real player to play that. Winamp can play it just fine.

dude no offense but u barley played that song right, buy the metallica legendary licks bass book and it will show u how, when u played the intro u should go


g----------------------------------------------------5---
d-----------5h7--------5h7----------------5---------------7-----
a--0----0--------0--0-------0---0--7--6-----------7------------------
e-------------------------------------------------------

but it was still good, and for the eq use bass 10 mid 9 treble 3

btw theres a little part where he wips on his wah and od pedal during the chorus, right after james says seek and dsetroy.

[metallicapeppermint27]

From a guitarists view it would be Call of ktulu,creeping death,RTL. The solo in RTL is way crazy.

I agree. That would be really cool from a guitarist standpoint to do those songs.
What recording stuff are you guys using? I wanna join in the fun. :)

[flamesofbodom]

If anyone here can play RTL with the solo, that's awesome.

If i had someting to record with i would do this or Trapped Under Ice or any other of the many Metallica songs i can play

Hey, I hear Met is comming out with a remake of St. Anger with solos in the songs. Is this true? If so....thank the gods.
i did not hear about that....

it would be interesting to listen to but i think the sogns suck so much that even a guitar solo wouldnt make them sound better

[Chu]

i did not hear about that....

Personally I don't think Kirk has it in him to make a decent solo anymore.
So I really don't think a remake of St. Anger with solos would be any good.
I think they should send James to some vocal training, and shoot Lars in the head.
Get a decent drummer, who knows what GOOD drums sound like. If they re-released St. Anger with a decent sounding drum, fixed James' voice, and maybe shortenned the songs, it would be fine. It is a great album, but there are a few problems which keep it from being an awesome album.

[BassMasterMike88]

Does anyone else here think that James's vocals have droped in quality over time from past albums to the more recent? Just listen to the vocals on The Four Hoursmen and compare them to the vocals on St. Anger.

[vashts80]

...Well no kidding, ~25 years of singing like that and your voice is sure to turn to crap. James isn't 19 anymore. Obviously his voice is going to go, just like Araya's voice is going, just like Dickinson's voice is going, just like Mustaine's voice is going.

[BassMasterMike88]

personally i think Mustaine's vocals are still somewhat strong, and Clapton has been singing for way longer then any thrash vocalists and he's still going strong.

[heavy metal kid]

personally i think Mustaine's vocals are still somewhat strong, and Clapton has been singing for way longer then any thrash vocalists and he's still going strong.

yeah, but clapton doesn't sing with the same strenght that hetfield or araya.
