Kirk soloing over Mustaine-penned songs is always great. People can say what they want about Dave, but he wrote the bulk of this song, and his progressions give Kirk a great platform to work with, melodically-speaking.
@Khayky de Karvalho That would be amazing. When they brought Dave out at XXX, they only focused on KEA, but imagine how much he could add to the complex stuff with all the harmonies.
One of mustaine's best riff, oh man remind of me those nights that i did not care about tomorrow. Still gives me that taste though 99percent faded.... But still in my whole body
@@hmpz36911 he wrote only the progression that is basically the intro to hangar18. The rest is definitely Hetfield. That is by no means the bulk of the song.
@@liviupopescu1027 Literally, all of the main riffs are Dave's... Other than changing the name or arranging the song, nobody else had much to do with it. James likely wrote 2 of the riffs that are at the very end of the song, and I think Cliff has credits, so he probably wrote 1 of them.
The reason they mispelled Chtulhu in the title is because, according to the original short story, every time you mention his name, it gets closer. That's some commitment to storytelling!
@@steevelapointe1152 For the millionth time. Kirk has never played a dave solo, ever. The only soloish thing by Dave he's played are small licks in KEM, like the opening lick to the fast solo in The Four Horsemen.
That leaps name was Cliff Burton who had a lot to do with orchestration, harmonies and arrangements as well as the obvious virtuosity of his bass playing, Kill em all was already written when he joined and this album and the next have his genius stamped all over it! R.I.P Cliff
@@_PuppetMaster86 it does how a very distinct buildup through the song but I do have to agree with the idea of using the Cthulhu mythos. The song has an elegant way of plunging the listener through a journey of discovery and madness. Each phase of the song is like understanding something that wasn’t meant to be understood by a mortal and our sanity comes crashing down when James does that evil mumble.

Welcome to our fortress tall Take some time to show you around Impossible to break these walls For you see the steel is much too strong Computer banks to rule the world Instruments to sight the stars Possibly I've seen to much Hangar 18 I know too much Foreign life forms inventory Suspended state of cryogenics Selective amnesia's the story Believed foretold but who'd suspect The military Intelligence Two words combined that can't make sense Possibly I've seen to much Hangar 18 I know too much
Dave called his music in ktulu " when hell freezes over " so highly doubt hangar 18 was the lyrics . Dave knew ( at the time ) james wrote better lyrics so he would put music with a name / concept on the table for james to write lyrics to. Dave probably never wrote lyrics for ktulu . if there was ever lyrics pnly James would know em .
Agreed. Honestly, Lars is incredible on most of the first five albums. Always in the pocket and had fills for days, but his real genius was his accentuations. He may peaked with Justice, but Black still had some great moments, and that drum tone...
@Shallex agreed. I like his drumming on the Load albums, but I've always felt those were his weakest performances. He's the kind of drummer that let's the song breath, though, and there's definitely merit to that. His playing on St. Anger was great, but it was nearly ruined for most fans because of that snare. You're right that his influence on song structures is way underrated.
That's true. Drums often give the song life, and ultimately dictate their personality. I love Steven Adler's work on Appetite for Destruction. It's not Dave Lombardo level, but it has swing, and makes each song sound better. Same with the Load records.
There are no lyrics because the mortal mind cannot interpret the whispers of the Great Old Ones. They are there, you just can't sense them. Just like how you cannot see Ultraviolet light, yet it is there.
I may as well point out, as no'one else has, that this entire song is based on a riff by Mr Dave Mustaine. What Hetfield, Ulrich, Hammett and Burton did with that riff was incredible. This is a metal masterpiece.
You can hear what they call the “spider chords” and the distortion of the high strings and solo picking of the strings which is classic Dave not to mention the chord shifting is heavily Dave influenced this is the closest thing you’ll hear to a megadeth song without megadeth, always a fan of Dave’s playing I can always hear what he touched and what he didn’t it’s pretty fucking awesome to hear the distinct difference.
@@hunterdeer6705 no you can't. spider chords arent even chords its overrated as fuck. its just a gimmick to play power chords 1 string and fret apart with a cleaner sound
Yea that second riff is Dave's it's such a cool odd structure really works. And it was reworked into a masterpiece, with Cliffs Ktulu noise bass over it
Id give damn near anything to see Cliff perform those undertones that sound like a monster growl in person. They have always captivated me when i hear them. So impressive.
Would you rather A: Mustaine stayed with Metallica and we had more 'mustaine like' Metallica albums instead of the whole 'Load' era. or B: Megadeth and Metallica as is?
who says that instrumentals are boring. everyone should listen to this masterpiece. its almost 40 years old but sounds so new.ctulu is one of the evilst and powerfullest demon in the tibetian deathbook.
Hearing even more bass savagery by Cliff, is outstanding. Ride The Lightning will always be my favorite Metallica album. It was a huge game changer for the band.
This solo is one of Hammet's best...it hits the pocket, levels up to a peak, then levels up again to a crescendo, and again, peaks even higher like a banshee wail, then comes back to that bluesy melodic phrase to close, and gets you right in the shred feels
1 remaster a year? That's pretty neat. I'd love to see remastered Disposable Heroes. I think that track is simply the best, killer vocals, killer guitars... Anyways, great stuff as always, onto omy playlist..
This song is why I love metal. My dad bought Ride the Lightning for this song. I found it in his collection when I was like 6 and 7 and it turned me into the metal head I am today,
I'm probably about as old as your dad because when Ride the Lightning came out, I wasn't completely comfortable with Metallica yet, but I fell in love with this song right away when I heard it first!
Un Bello y emocionante homenaje a uno de los escritores más notables del género Terror, H. P. Lovecraft, de la mano de uno de sus fans que mejor a canalizado su arte como influencia, y sus amigos: el Sr. Clifford Burton, quien acercó a este mundo a sus compañeros de banda, para luego rendir este maravilloso tributo...
It's an absolute shame that the bass in this song was so buried overall. The stuff Cliff does in this song outshines most of what he does in Orion. Not to throw shade at Orion of course. Learning to play this song on Bass was an experience.
In this song u can hear cliffs influence of classical. Building it up. Until grand finale. U wont find that in any other song of theirs. Such a solid piece that can be made into a power orchestra piece
Everyone talks about Burton’s bass, which is iconic here, mysterious, but Hammet’s soloing soars, it’s perfect. Chills every time.

Metallica made a serious quantum leap between kill em all and RTL.

RIP Cliff
yes, read Cliff brought like music theory stuff, (sorry) to the band
Yeah, but they weren't REAL thrash after that point.
This song is ICE COLD. Kinda wish they kept the original name When Hell Freezes Over. It matches so much
I feel like the Call of Ktulu is cooler though
@@Craig-gq4gb True, but I always the get the imagery of a windy storm starting and just chaos, but Kthulu’s appearance works with it, too.
