      Just for fun, listen to War Pigs by Black Sabbath and compare it to this one. They are built the same. They sound very different but the changes and choice of where to go with the music are the same.
      If you know this one in and out you will hear it. I had been listening to both these songs for years and one day I played them on guitar one after the other and discovered it. That was a very cool realization.

My cousin kept checking on me through a locked door because Fade to Black was all I would listen to, and I wanted nothing to do with anything or anyone. The song didn't save me as many people say it has for them. I still take antidepressants. Too many people have to or they give up. They fade to black. 🖤

    A little tidbit of info about the band's music. The Bass player on the first 3 albums, the phenom Cliff Burton, who died on the Masters tour, had a very LARGE part in playing and/or inspiring the riffs in the songs. You, not being a player, wouldn't immediately recognize that some of the riffs, especially on the instrumentals, were done on the Bass, not guitar. Cliff was elite in the metal realm.

    This takes me back to my high school years when I got deep into Metallica and eventually saw them live during the 1999 European tour. Watching this, all I could think was "Good for you, bruv". I'm genuinely happy for you. Listening to these songs for the first time is truly a memorable experience (at least, it was for me). Some songs might not be everyone's cup of tea, and that's fine. Most songs get better the more you listen to them, as you start to pick up on some subtle things here and there. Thanks for sharing your experience. And yes, I think that the urge to grow long hair, a goatee, and learn how to play guitar are common side effects of listening to Metallica :)

    This was the song they started to play during the infamous 1992 Montreal concert where James was badly burned. That was the last time I saw them live...

    My son lost his best friend in a car accident and he listened to this song over and over and over. I am so thankful that he is still with me today. It could’ve been such a different outcome.

    One of those songs that the meaning is more and more understandable the older you get

    The instrumental outro = 2nd best guitar solo ever. Second only to the guitar solo outro on Pink Floyd’s Comfortably Numb Live at Pulse performance. 🤘🏼🎸

    Fuck yeah. I posted a long list of suggestions under a previous video. Happy to do so again - or otherwise, honestly the best way to get into this band is listen to every album track by track from the beginning.

    Fade to Black is one of my all time favorite songs. I love that Metallica songs have a lot if changes in them, yet the changes all work together. Here's another great Metallica song to try: No Leaf Clover. It was written specifically for the S&M album. This album included the San Francisco Orchestra and the song was written for this arrangement.

    New subscriber here. Loved the react. You said "if you know of any other Metallica songs" and I laughed. Pick one. Literally. Off their 1st 5 albums. Pick. Any. Song. WIN! Lol.
    Here's another must- listen: a band called Queensryche. Check out "Silent Lucidity", and especially their 1984 Tokyo video of "Take Hold of the Flame" Enjoy!

    This is the only song that I can remember the first time I heard it and the feeling I had. It was during the mandatory metallica segment every week night at 10 pm here in Atlanta. Can't remember if it was 96 rock or 99x, but I was in bed half asleep with the radio on. I popped up, turned the light on, and continued listening. I sweat to god, but I called the radio station, which I did often then, and asked what the name of the song was. This was before Napster or mp3, and the only place I could buy cassettes was walmart or Kmart. Needless to say this was the beginning of a lifestyle for me. Cheers everyone.

    This just related to me so much when I heard it 25 years ago that it made me start playing guitar, joined a band, toured all over the U.S. Fade To Black was the very first song I learned how to play. I opened up so mane doors for me as a beginner

  • @armyvet92

    You may or may not find the information about one of the original members , DAVE MUSTAIN, who actually wrote a lot of these songs. Formed his own band MEGADETH !!!

    • @PikeBishop1
      @PikeBishop1 Před 29 dny

      He wrote a riff for the RTL title track, that was changed a bit, and he wrote the opening riff for Call of Kutulu. He didn't write entire songs, or even close, on this album. Not taking a single thing away from Mr. Mustaine, obviously.

    Thank you for reviewing this. As I said in my comment in your One reaction, this Live is exceptional. In a personal note as I also mentioned in the other reaction, this song helped to save lives. Just knowing someone else is going through what you are helps. Great reaction. Keep it up.

    This song digs deep in my very soul and literally saved my life when I wanted to end it all. It kills me to listen to it now, but makes me glad I decided to stick around and get the help I desperately needed.

    As a thrash metal guitarist from the 1988-1992, this song was one of our favourites to play at practise at our garage. We played our stuff, got drunk and covered Slayer and Metallica and other bands.... And we always had a special bond to this song.

    This was roughly the 3rd or 4th video of yours that I viewed. Decided to subscribe. I enjoy watching "new" Metallica fans blossom, I also feel a "pinch" of envy. Because these beautiful, classic songs are new to you. And it brings me back to the days when they were new for me as well. The Metallica rabbit hole is an extensive one. But TONS of fun. Enjoy the journey young man. A few suggestions for you, if I may...
    "Dyer's Eve"
    "Harvester of Sorrow"
    "For Whom the Bell Tolls"
    "Damage Inc."
    SO many more I could put up there. But I'll stop for now. Keep up the GREAT work! 🤘🤘🤘

    My fave song since the day the album came out and I had my mom drive me 2 hours to the record store to buy the LP.
