I'd have like, an .mp3 of Fade To Black, Orion, and For Whom The bell Tolls, all in one song.

ya i'd say fade to black or one both ****[SIZE=2]i[/SIZE]n kick as[SIZE=2]s[/SIZE] The last 3 minutes of fade to black are incredible

RTL is my fav album.

Me fav songs include One, For Whom The Bell Tolls, Creeping Death and Of Wolf and Man.

Well, I'm listening to them now



I like Metallica

My favorite tunes would hav to be Battery and ..And Justice For All. Battery becuz its f**kin fast as hell and becuz of the sweet F Bb B Bb B Bb B F# F riff after the solo. AJFA is sooo much fun to play, i also luv it cuz its so complex and has a big mix of classical in it, plus its there longest song!

Hey get this, I was reading my So What book (the official METALLICA illustrated chronicle) and theres some pages where fans ask question to the band and one of them is wut is your favorite song to play live and which of ur songs is ur favorite:
The band answered:

Lars:favorite tunes-Whiplash, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Fade to Black, Orion, Sandman, and Nothing Else Matters.
favorite tunes to play live-Sanaterium and For Whom the Bell Tolls

Kirk:both faves and faves to perform-Sad But True, Enter Sandman, The Thing That Should Not Be, Sanaterium, Hasrvester of Sorrow, Creeping Death, For Whom the Bell Tolls, Motorbreath.

James-The Thing That Should Not Be

no bassist is listed so it must hav been wen Jason left

I Love the creepy acoustic intro as well, and Fight fir with Fire all that song is immense

Mercyful Fate on Garage Inc. is longer but mind you that's just a cover jam.

[QUOTE=Flower Dance]Mercyful Fate on Garage Inc. is longer but mind you that's just a cover jam.[/QUOTE]
It's not a jam, it's a medley of Mercyful Fate songs.

I think AJFA the song is good, but in my opinion the album isn't very good at all, affter i've heard RTL it seems really bad

It's the other way round for me, i dislike AJFA the song but like the album.

That song just drags on and on and on. But the album rules, blackened, one, harvestor of sorrow, frayed ends, to live is to die \m/

AJFA is one of my favorite metallica songs :(

[QUOTE=heavy metal kid]now that i read it, the comment confuse me a lot, but your list it's still good, except for seek and destroy, it's very simple compare to other kill 'em all tracks.[/QUOTE]

I agree with you on this one But, now this is a big but, songs don't really have to be complex to be good, I know hundreds of songs that are reasonably simple to play and even sound simple but are really effective..

WHAT?! i hav to disagree becuz if the song AJFA drags on then u can make the arguement that the song MOP just drags on cuz they are both long. I dont feel this way tho becuz all the riffs are really complex in AJFA and i like how they "remix" the intro part after the solo its rly cool.

PS:mop DOESNT drag on, just trying to make a point

So I just got [I]No Life 'Til Leather[/I] and it is freaking awesome :). [I]Seek & Destroy[/I] is so much better on it and [I]The Phantom Lord[/I] is great too. It is alot better than [I]Power Metal[/I] and it also has more tracks :)

The only bad thing about both for me is that the track fades in and out, having been recorded in a garage and then No Life.. was in a local studio.
It didn't really matter too much that they changed the lyrics later for Kill Em All, cause like on Mechanix, I could barely understand a **** word he said, but I've come to expect that from him. That's what makes them great, you know they say something important, but you can't understand it.

I'm glad they changed the words to th Mechanix. It was about a Garage worker.

Yeah but MoP doesn't have the same riff for 2 minutes, the intro to AJFA (after the acoustic bit) is far too long and just repeats too much.

i agree, you can't say a song drags on just because it is long. MOP is long, but it moves along and is not extremely repetitive

I think the AJFA album on a whole isn't great(have I posted on this before) I listened to it then listened to RTL and RTL is so mcuh better

That is probably because [I]Ride The Lightning[/I] is IMO their greatest album followed closely by [I]Master Of Puppets[/I]

Agreed i prefer RTL over all their other albums.

I'd agree with you, but i havent heard al the albums yet, although I intend to

FlowerDance, Where'd you get your Avatar

I made it in JASC Animation Shop :D

Does anyone know why metallica traveled halfway all th way across the country just to record Kill Em All? thye recorded it in rochester New York but they are from San Fran, whats the deal?

I'm not too sure i think it might be because the guy who signed them wanted to record it there. Or it might just have been a cheaper, better studio.

Yea and then Dave Mustaine had to travel back to San Fran very aruptly...

hehehe....travel....he got the boot!



Keep Bassin'!!!

Ehm. I wanna see Metallica cover more songs live. Astronomy is one I'd like to see. Opinions?

[QUOTE=Flower Dance]I'm glad they changed the words to th Mechanix. It was about a Garage worker.[/QUOTE]

Its about having sex in a car.

[QUOTE=clairvoyant]Yea and then Dave Mustaine had to travel back to San Fran very aruptly...[/QUOTE]

Dave wasn't in the band for the recording of KEA.

[QUOTE=vashts80]Ehm. I wanna see Metallica cover more songs live. Astronomy is one I'd like to see. Opinions?[/QUOTE]
Ya, i wanna see Metallica cover more songs, and less other bands cover metallica songs live. Every time i hear a live metallica cover it sucks the metallica versions d*ck

Youve obviously never heard Trivium do Master of Puppets. Of course, its not as good as the original, but its amazing none the less.

I wanna hear the Trivium MoP cover...

and to RideTheLightning03:

Tell that to Dream Theater

i've never heard that one, and i have heard [I]some[/I] decent ones, but usually they suck

Dream Theater butchered that CD. They made it sound lame by using Keyboards, and im sorry but Labrie just sucked at singing it.

Really? Most (including me) loved it.

Yea, I also thought it was pretty bad also. I didn't mind the keyboards, but the vocals sounded exactly opposite of hetfield's, and obviously when they put opposite vocals with their music, it will sound like shi[b]t[/b]. They played MoP slower than metallica plays live, now I dont know whether metallica plays faster live than their album, or if DT played slower. Petrucci and Portnoy were great though. Actually portnoy was better since all petrucci did was stand there and play. He has almost no stage presence that it becomes boring to watch him.

Ya, i agree about th DT covers, the vocals are the worst part of it. I'm also pretty sure Metallica plays faster live than on thier CDs. On all the live stuff i have, it clearly sounds faster
