Appears on the album, Justice; OUT NOW: hyperurl.co/9w5tq2
Featuring Lauren Desberg on vocals
What would happen if you took And Justice for All, the iconic 1988 album from Thrash Metal icons, Metallica, and reimagined it for a Classical orchestra? Add to that four emerging Jazz and Soul vocalists. You're left with one of the most intriguing interpretations of Rock material ever recorded. Brought to you by Little Kruta, featuring a band comprised entirely of women, Justice will forever change the way you perceive Metallica, Classical Music, and what an audiophile recording can be.
On Justice, Little Kruta, consisting of Kristine Kruta (Musical Director & Cello), Maria Im (Concert Mistress & Violin), Katie Jacoby (Violin & Soloist), Chiara Fasi (Violin), Molly Fletcher (Violin), Laura Sacks (viola), Tia Allen (viola), Adi Meyerson (upright bass), and Rosie Slater (percussion), are joined with sensational vocalists Alita Moses, Camille Trust, Lauren Desberg, and Jenn Mundia -- each joining for two songs.
Recorded in a decommissioned Brooklyn church, the Pierre Piscitelli arrangements of the beloved thrash melodies are completely transformed into moving pieces that will speak to fans of all genres. Justice features a fascinating blend of musical styles, influences, and personalities.
Little Kruta has appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon (Aminé, Metro Boomin and Gunna), Late Night with Seth Meyers (K.Flay), Saturday Night Live! (Shawn Mendes), at Brooklyn's Barclay's Center (Ruff Ryders), and more. Little Kruta has joined artists including Kaki King, The Wonder Years, and Vérité both on-stage and in-studio. Comprised of master musicians who are just as comfortable in the booth as they are on stage, the foundation of this orchestra is built on a true love of playing, and led by cellist Kristine Kruta.
The album was recorded in stunning high definition fashion using our new recording methodology which pairs a stereo ribbon microphone capturing crystal clear vocal performance and the immaculate acoustics of the church in which the album was recorded. This new recording style will leave you feeling like the band is right in front of you while still creating a timeless presence that will have you coming back for years to come.
Written by James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich

As an oldschool Metallica fan, I came expecting to hate this. But.. it's extremely good. I really love your sound. It's hauntingly authentic.
Thank you! We did our best to honor them in our own way.
I had to listen to it a few times. I think a song like Shortest Straw should be a little darker in sound by musicians who want to spin their own take on these MetallicA classics. But being a music lover first, and a former baritone and trumpet player in high school has learned to like these versions. Really unique. Especially the Dyers Eve version.
@@kristinekruta You guys are amazing!
This is actually so lovely
Now THAT'S an effing bass!
This is really unique and interesting. And as a huge MetallicA fan I love hearing these musicians play their own style of these MetallicA classics.
Beautiful re-imagination of the song! For those who don't know yet there's an entire version of the Justice album by Little Kruta (it's on Spotify). The Frayed Ends of Sanity is my favorite!
Eye of the Beholder for me.
Love to hear this! Thanks so much!
Holy smokes she has a gorgeous singing voice and fantastic job by the strings and front ensemble section!! Loved it
I review metallica albums on my channel if anyone is interested
Thank you!
bravo
Such a cool re-imagination of the song !
Top notch.
Wow its amazing
it's amazing but with good pair of headphones and hi-res audio file from chesky records, you guys are the best !
The song writing lyrics are so good from James.
He really is a talented songwriter, and Lars has a great ear for arrangements.
Pretty cool!
What a cool, creative, and unconventional cover! Thank you for making this.
Thanks for listening!
what
what is happening in the world anymore
didn't know Disney princesses sang metal
Why?
The people hating this are the ones who probably expected them to copy Shortest Straw in a classical music style.
There is no rule to what a person needs to change in a cover, appreciate this for what it is.
If you only like the original, go listen to the original ...
Conseguiram remover TODOS os elementos interessantes da música. Parabéns!
Disse o dono da verdade
@@leandroparatella Quais são os elementos originais apresentados nesta versão?
Tu é fã ou é hater?
No.
That was pretty subpar not gonna lie
Скучно

It's beautifully performed but this isn't a cover song at all. This is putting the Metallica lyrics over an original composition in order to generate buzz by trading on the Metallica name. Great voice for sure but this is a marketing scam.
Uhhh. This didn’t really need to be made.
Yeah no.
Just the words remain, they trashed the music, what a fail!
You do realize how hard it is to transpose metal music to an orchestral environment right ? Dont be such a stuck up prick about this kind of thing, they are trying to do their best, if your criticism isnt constructive then keep your stuck up garbage to yourself.
@@DJSkyeWolf2 The San Francisco Symphony Orchestra did it twice.
@@DJSkyeWolf2
If they copy and paste the title and the words of a different song, it worked fine as well. No reference to the theme was kept. Sorry, no constructive criticism. Clickbait.
I review metallica albums on my channel if anyone is interested
@@DJSkyeWolf2 Yes you have a point, but this is entirely another song with shortest straw lyrics. i don't say this is bad, the music is good better than the original maybe, but that's another song, there's nothing "transposed" except the lyrics. it's good, but it shoudn't be named cover.
