Bro. Just remember, metal isn’t evil. They are the best musicians. Almost all of their shit is to empower you, grieve, or stand up for yourself or your people. Keep going and you will see. Let’s go
“Wow” is correct my man. I remember being a young teen in the mid 80’s hating my self my life and everyone around me going through foster home after foster home and this song was my “babysitter” for yrs.
Dude..... you nailed it this song saved my live as a teenager in the mid to late 80s it let me know that i wasnt alone, i wasnt the only one feeling the way i was feeling. It was comforting. I could listening to this song over and over and could get lost in the music and get in my head and getting worked out and thru their music at age 50 im still here and thriving
This song saved my life. It kept me from going through with a few suicide attempts in my teens and early 20’s. It came on the radio and I realized I wasn’t alone and there were others going through what I was.
Well said, and understood. This song gives a person in that darkness someone to relate to; then as the instrumental goes on it increases in scale, which brings a feeling of victory. This song has helped countless people get through dark times. Thanks, for your reaction.
I love the wordplay in the lyrics: "Growing darkness taking dawn" and "Emptiness is filling me." Dawn is the beginning of light, but it is represented as the beginning of darkness. Emptiness filling him, being filled with nothing is a powerful concept especially when dealing with someone's feelings. I imagine if you have been in a mental state of depression this speaks volumes to you. Even as a person who has not experienced those feelings, the way this is worded is powerful. Thanks for reacting to Metallica! You totally nailed the reaction. Many of Metallica's songs, especially early on, are pretty deep in meaning. A lot of reactors don't understand the meaning of the songs because they don't listen close enough to the lyrics. Awesome job!!!!!
Great reaction! James Hetfield is the singer and rhythm guitarist. Kirk Hammett is the lead guitarist. Lars Ulrich is the drummer. Cliff Burton is the bassist in the first 3 albums, but the band has had multiple bassists since his untimely death (Jason Newstead then Robert Trujillo) This is a great introduction to Metallica. I’d recommend going through each song, album by album in order, but if you don’t want to do that, here’s some recommendations: One (not the music video) Master of Puppets And Justice for All Welcome Home (Sanitarium) Blackened Sad But True Also as you go on the Metallica journey, the live performances of some of these songs are amazing, just ask us and I promise we got you 🙏
With this rabbit hole, your life will be changed, forever. This is the first Metallica song I'd ever heard, and it absolutely saved my life. I suggest "Master of Puppets" , and then let us guide you..🤘😎🤘
I inherited Metallica from my dad before i was even born. He used to play this cassette tape on his Walkman and put the headphones up to my mother's stomach and depending on the mood i was in i would either chill out and go to sleep or kick the shit out of her belly. Metallica has been an overwhelmingly positive influence on my life. I have suffered from mental illnesses most of my adolescence and my entire adult life Metallica has helped calm that inner storm more times than i can count. Once i learned they made the song One after reading a book and watching the film adaptation Johnny Got His Gun by Dalton Trambo i went out of my way as a 14 year old kid to ask my local library to rent both of them from other libraries just to see what they saw, read what they read, and maybe understand some of what they understood and knew. I used Master of Puppets to win a literary contest in high school. I own first edition copies signed copies of all their albums, and book. My mom for my 26th birthday got my dad and i tickets to see Metallica in concert and although they were literal nosebleed seats it was one of the coolest experiences of my life. I dont drink but that night my dad and i shared a beer at a concert of our favorite band and had an unforgettable experience that will last a lifetime.
Back in the 80's i was a wild child; to put it lightly.. Living on my own at 14.. working two jobs and still going to school (and passing with B avg)... I think this Album.. yes ALBUM may have saved my life.. it was a channel to let my anger out and to cry too.
Metallica wrote "Fade To Black" after their equipment was stolen. The band was scheduled to play a show in Boston on January 14, 1984. The truck with their gear got their first, and when their road crew looked for it the next morning, it was gone. This was especially hard for James, their singer and rhythmen guitarist, whos amplifer that his mother bought to him before she died was among the stolen things. Performing this song live, James often stops before the bridge and addresses the crowd about the subject, like this one from Buffalo in 2022. ”It's a beautiful sound to hear each other. This song here is about suicide, written in 1983. We've all had struggles. We've all had dark times. We've all known friends or family members that have taken their own lives. They've committed to a permanence to a temporary problem. We've all been touched by it. If you're feeling like you're struggling, there's people to listen. There's people that will listen to you. There are people that love you. I love you. And you're not alone. Remember that. You are not alone."
Metallica is one of the biggest bands known world over, and they got that way by relentless touring and no radio airplay of their first 4 albums until the release of their 5th album "Metallica"or what is referred to as the black album. Upon the release of that album, their popularity exploded.
This song helped a lot of people through dark times. You should check out Master of Puppets next, considered one of the best heavy metal songs of all time. Really anything off their first four albums is FIRE!! Nice reaction!
Metal music is meant to dive deeper into the human experience and spectrum of emotions. There is anger, grief, loneliness, sadness, happiness, strength. Many different feels in metal music that ive never found in any other music form. Its a beautiful thing.
The lead singer wrote this after their equipment had been stolen, Including the amp his mother bought for him before she passed.. rest in peace Mrs Hetfield and thank you for the gift of James🎸🎸🎸
I never knew that. I've been a big fan of Metallica and this song since my adolescent years and never really knew the story behind this song. This was one of the first cds I bought. I'm 34 now and still enjoy listening to this song and them and especially watching reaction videos to people who never heard of them listening to their songs for the first time. I guess I was just satisfied with the song's message, vibe, and change it had in my life that I never took the time to know the backstory. Thank you for commenting that 🤘❤ now I know.
@ yeah, one of the first things I saw About them was some kind of monster. Made me cry, and made me instantly a fan …That really hit home that our favorites are indeed human. they have been through so much and still managed to stay together for over 40 years …a lot of bands can’t say that…
@@mztweety1374 Yes, most definitely. I'm glad they've stayed together for the most part and Robert has grown to be family too. They're my favorite band 100 percent and I love the bonds they have and the bonds their songs create with us.
Life, it seems, will fade away Drifting further, every day Getting lost within myself Nothing matters, no one else I have lost the will to live Simply nothing more to give There is nothing more for me Need the end to set me free Things not what they used to be Missing one inside of me Deathly loss, this can't be real I cannot stand this hell I feel Emptiness is filling me To the point of agony Growing darkness, taking dawn I was me, but now he's gone No one but me Can save myself But it's too late Now I can't think Think why I should even try Yesterday seems as though It never existed Death greets me warm Now I will just say goodbye Bye...
Favourite Metallica song. Ending guitar solo is... Yeah... Won't even try to describe the feeling it invokes in me. That being said, I'm still waiting for my M.I.A. "Paper planes" or "Borders" official music video reaction 🙁 Please just do it already bro. You will be glad you did it. I promise.
Nice reaction. A lot of content creators have the same misconception about Metallica prior to their first listening, and the genre is full of bands that are nothing but mindless screaming and fast guitars. Depending on your mood, that's fine, but Metallica is different. You can understand everything James Hetfield says, even if the song has no deeper meaning than to get your adrenaline pumping. Their first album, Kill'em All, is loaded with songs like that, which makes sense since they weren't much more than teenagers when they created it. But it was extremely well executed for their age. I would love to encounter a channel that explored Metallica chronologically and get a sense of the band's evolution.
The world is full of kings and queens that will blind your eyes and steel your dreams it’s heaven and hell 🤘🤘 the church told our parents to burn our music 🤘🤘 we fought for your right to listen to the music you like 🤘🤘 keep going!!!
You gotta check out To Live is to Die from the And Justice For All album. Their bass player died and they created an instrumental* for it. Very emotional *There are 2 or 3 quotes towards the end.
Wow.. "POP!" Warning.. if you go down this path of Metallica.. you will inevitably hit the Led Zepplin Vortex.. 6 months you will have changed.. lol Happy Holidays!

My favorite song by my favorite band of all time. Stick to the first five albums. Watching from Tupelo Mississippi ❤
Need the end to set me free. Powerful lyrics. 🖤🖤🖤
Great reaction!

This is a great introduction to Metallica. I’d recommend going through each song, album by album in order, but if you don’t want to do that, here’s some recommendations:
One (not the music video)
Master of Puppets
And Justice for All
Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
Blackened
Sad But True
Also as you go on the Metallica journey, the live performances of some of these songs are amazing, just ask us and I promise we got you 🙏
RIP Cliff Burton. Forever Remembered.

Not sure I could think of a song with a better intro/outro combination than this one. Absolute masterpiece!

From this album, check out Creeping Death. James Hetfield the singer/rhythm guitar wrote this after watching The Ten Commandments. Watch with Lyrics.
Them and guns n roses 🌹
This whole album is fire, as well as the album Master of puppets. Can't go wrong on any track from either of them.
I agree this album is perfect, and this song is the best
Eh, Espcae is pretty weak but the rest, especially 2-5 are amazing

Be very careful addicted since 1983. There is no cure!!!
Fix me!
Same since 2022… love em to pieces.
Life, it seems, will fade away
Drifting further, every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters, no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly loss, this can't be real
I cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filling me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness, taking dawn
I was me, but now he's gone
No one but me
Can save myself
But it's too late
Now I can't think
Think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though
It never existed
Death greets me warm
Now I will just say goodbye
Bye...
Favourite Metallica song. Ending guitar solo is... Yeah... Won't even try to describe the feeling it invokes in me.
That being said, I'm still waiting for my M.I.A. "Paper planes" or "Borders" official music video reaction 🙁 Please just do it already bro. You will be glad you did it. I promise.

Metal is about harsh feelings , most metal ...
Unless you’re Electric Callboy or Alestorm.
🤘👍👍🤘ed
Very perceptive a analysis of the lyrics, ur not alone if u feel this way! Pretty much sum up this song!
You gotta check out To Live is to Die from the And Justice For All album.
Their bass player died and they created an instrumental* for it. Very emotional
*There are 2 or 3 quotes towards the end.
And they faded to black...................
Welcome to real music. 🤘
Don't let the lyrics get into your head on this one.
Wow.. "POP!"
Warning.. if you go down this path of Metallica.. you will inevitably hit the Led Zepplin Vortex.. 6 months you will have changed.. lol
Happy Holidays!
If you enjoyed the the beginning of this, you have to listen to "ONE"
