It was alright...a little rough in some places... the only thing that really needs to be fixed are the vox and the guitar...good job on everything else

Vocals horrible, I doubt lessons will help. The guitaring wasn't bad, the solos were off but it was a good attempt.

Wicked distorted guitar could use some polishing. Vocals: never sing again. Bass: average. Clean guitar: played well, bad tone.

Overall man, I think it was a kick *** effort. The guitar tones I don't favor much but i'd say the playing was about as spot on as someone could do it except Metallica themselves. To those who complained about the VOX i'd like to see someone do a better job. Then talk. I say 4.5/5 keep it up!

I liked it, the atmosphere (I guess that's the right word) feels closer to the orignal than mine does, not to mention you have a full band to play it. The vocals sounded fine to me, not perfect but then I couldn't sing to save my life.

guitar - ok, 2 robotic, not smooth enough
drums - f*kin sucked
vocals - complete wrong song for you to sing, you sound like a country singer lol

overall, better than average, but no where near good or great, the only good thing were the solos, which could be better, and to apromisingyear, yes someone could do this better excpet metallica, ive heard tones of metallica tribute bands that kick this bands *** at covering fade to black.

guitar - you sound like your not sure what to play at some points, and too much distortion.
drums - ok, could be better
vocals - not bad, better than most peoples voices, but not excellent.

better than most cover of this song Ive heard, but not the best.

what a disgrace to metallica, with that voice you make there best song bad. shame on u. you also left out the best part of the song, the ending solo (the relly fast part that happens to be the best part) what a shame.

Well it wasn't as bad as people made it out ot be vocally. The singer in the first verse wasnt terrible but after that you lost it man. You tried to copy Hetfield too much and it made you sound stupid. You should sing with your own voice and it would sound alot better. As for the guitar parts...they sucked, plain and simple.

You are the only person I've seen to be 100x better soloing then doing a simple rythem part.
