  • It's been so long since we've done anything from the Ride The Lightning album. I have waited so long to listen to this but I just couldn't wait any longer. A lot of people have started to complain about there apparently being too many Metallica videos... Personally, I don't think there ever can be too many!
    Here is my reaction to hearing Metallica - The Call Of Ktulu for the first time. I hope you enjoy it!

  • @hereticzealot

    This was originally called "When Hell Freezes Over". Later the name of the song was changed at the initiative of the band's new bassist, Cliff Burton, and a guitar chord structure was added, written by Kirk Hammett, who was a big Lovecraft fan. The misspelling of "Cthulhu" is explained by the fact that, according to Lovecraft's works, mentioning Cthulhu's name (verbally or in writing) could summon him, so the band changed the name "in fear of the monster". (Copied from a fan)

    this song is inspired by the short story “The Call of Cthulhu ” by American author H.P. Lovecraft. Cthulu is a water based beast or cosmetic entity but if you keep on repeating its name you wake and provoke it and it will rise and attack your city till it finds you the caller and kills you hence Metallica changed the name in the tittle of the song to Ktulu so the beast is not awaken. Listening to this masterpiece really you can feel the journey from waking up the beast as the music slowly builds up with suspence till when the beast reaches the city’s shores and the music starts to intensify as Cthulhu destroys the city and the music is just telling you how and discribing how magnificently raged the beast is. And when it destroys its target, the one who called its name and provoked it and woke it, then the beast calms retreats back to the water as it immerses its body into the horizon of the ocean the music calms and once the Cthulu fully disappers the waters go back to how it was before Cthulu woke and so does the music

There’s a remastered version of the song where you can hear him better on all those little solos. He does some really wild stuff that I hadn’t noticed before.

    I think I've watxhed this about 5 times. I can't get over the reaction dude. That's literally the same reaction i had. It's by far the most beautiful Metallica song.

    This is my number 1 favourite Metallica song, seeing them perform it in its entirety live in Melbourne was completely unexpected and one of the highlights of my life.
    Killer video, man. 🤘

    The live version of this that they performed with the San Francisco Symphony on S&M 1 is just perfect

    one of my favorites from Metallica. the feeling that there's a summoning going on, that there is something responding, is just perfect. after so many years, i still get chickenskin when the summoning is complete and ktulu is here at 00:11:15 ...such great vivid composing.

    You are hearing new Metallica on CZcams. When we were growing up as kids, we would go to a lucky mates place who had just acquired it on cassette, normally bought by their parents, or bought with hard earned pocket money. We would also borrow each other’s cassette, hoping our players would not chew the tape. Pull the pencil out when needed, to respool it.
    Awesome days, very fond memories. Mates in metal 🤘

    The fact you are young and not from the era of Metallica greatness, the fact that it moves is exactly why music is life. I’m 53 and could take you back to the moment I put the needle down on RTL. Hope you enjoy the lifetime of memories. From an old metal head 🤘🏻 ps, go see them before it’s too late! For real. 😳

    Just FYI, Ktullu is a monster from H. P. Lovecraft novels that was so powerful it could kill you simply by you looking at it. Kirk Hamet was a huge horror novel fan. This is the last song that Dave Mustaine had any input on.

    I've seen some people suggest listening to the s&m version. But if you do, listen to the s&m2 version. The background bass is much more audible in the second one.

    The intro and the two clean riffs are some of my favourite things to play on an acoustic guitar. So much fun (and a good warm up for the fingers)

    I loved your reaction when you thought the song had finished! These guys don't stop until the end, and then give some more. So glad you enjoyed it mate, you have so much more to look forward to, love the videos, keep them coming.

    The part you’re referencing in the beginning of the song and continues throughout the song is the late GREAT CLIFF BURTON on bass adding texture to the entire arrangement. R.I.P. Cliff

    The 2 sequel songs to this one are 'The thing that should not be' (from MoP 1986) and 'Dream no more' (from ...Hardwired to self destruct 2016.)

    The BEST way to listen to this song is full blast and eyes closed to feel it!
    This song has pulled me out of any funk I've ever been in. And is also my favorite instrumental song of all time!!

    "The Call Of Ktulu" is the one instrumental song I love a lot. Adventurous, fast, cryptid in a way and yeah.

    Dave mustaine reused that chord sequence in hanger 18 (megadeth) a few years later.

    The "tiny, little guitar solo" is Cliff Burton with his distorted bass, playing his Wah Wah Pedal 😁
    He did this many times on the first two albums

  • @tatianawhittaker
    @tatianawhittaker Před 3 měsíci +1

    This is definitely the best instrumental they have done. James, Kirk and Cliff playing some major riffage and Lars pounding those drums. A perfect formula.

    Yes! That jammed! Haven’t heard it before but have also fallen for Metallica thanks to your reactions! I really only knew the radio hits. Wow… the instrumental tracks are some of the best. I felt that ending in my soul🤘🏻❤

    The apotheosis of minor key, most dark Metallica composition and one of the most dark intros in metal music ever. Fun fact 1: Dave Mustaine was inspired by Led Zeppelin’s “Kashmir”. Exact same chords, played differently. Fun fact 2: Mustaine used again the exact same chords a few years later on Megadeth’s Hangar 18. Cheers

    Cliff is definitely the architect here. Dude was so amazing. I always think what they would have sounded like if he didn't die. He was at the peak.
