some of James Hetfields best, heavy, crazy moments mainly from the 80s and 90s. this bloke is an absolute freak when its comes to being a rhythm guitarist and vocalist so enjoy the fukin video.
I made this video quite a while back and didn’t realise it would get so many views, if you guys want a part two let me know, sorry for bad editing, enjoy ya day 🍻🤘
You gotta add Leper Messiah Live in Philadelphia from 89'. The "lies, lies, lies... LIES!!!!" part, James screams like HELL there, and with echo added to his mic, boy that's a hell on earth.. Check this out (it's somewhere around 5:00): th-cam.com/video/uNv1-LFlIfo/w-d-xo.html
Lars wrote the song Battery after one night at 11pm his girlfriend needed double A batteries for some unknown reason. And Lars was loved it. He went in to write battery.
Yep, that was the peak of his voice. However he blew it up, shortly in the early 90, with the black album tour. Everything after that was just yodeling.
@@gabrieldzwonowski9815 Slayer were indeed hevier, live they were pure madness back then. However 'Tallica had more stage presence. Anthrax had the best stage presence above all the big 4 while their music was more soft than the others. All the big 4 have a lot of good music, there's no need of fighting each others.
Hammer Fest 1985 and Seattle 1989. Two of my favourite performs ever, and one of the biggest reasons is his aggressiveness and potency. Years after years, he never seizes to amaze me. Although you missed that one scream in Thingy.
The opening to Seattle with Blackened is one of the heaviest greatest moments in the history of mankind. They encored blackened at my first show in 2017 and I was fucking happy. Best band in the world
@@alvinahmed9103 his voice nowdays is still epic tho, and he learned to growl it seems and use that to his advantage when it comes to reach some of those screams without tearing his voice out.
@@justineckenrode7502 the people who say that are the same people who only listen to bands that play 7 and 8 string guitars and growl into the mic while the drummer is doing bast beats in the background. Ignore them dude
Bro back in the day when they played fight fire with fire Lars would take that shit to the moon. And hetfield prolly has the most metal voice out of the big four
@@marlon3089 me too. They released the remastered audio from the Seattle 89 concert on the AJFA 30th anniversary rerelease ultimate edition. I bought the damn thing as soon as it released. And I bought the remastered audio from their Moscow 91 concert on iTunes when they rereleased the Black Album for its 30th.
@@marlon3089 the remastered audio from Seattle 89 is one of the greatest audio recordings in their history, and it sounds even more incredible than the DVD.
By his own admission he also used to do a lot of coke. Present day 2022 his playing is more accurate and tight than since he recorded the albums. Wow. Amazing how he actually got BETTER with practice. His precision today is amazing.
holy fuck man the ride the lightning era was probably the heaviest n most thrash cause they got all the kill em all stuff, stepped it up with RTL, that Fight fire with fire intro clip at 0:57 is insanity to play that fast, but puppets james and the band came into theyre own you can see in the battery clip hes singing like classic james and just going balls to the walls ....

there's the best metal frontman ever bois

Reuben Shilling if not him, then who?
Poseeer
@@TheReuMusic well u are wrong
Just Some Guy without a Mustache Bro are you the guy i see on every video i watch with top comment bro
I love it how more than 50% is from Seattle 89
Teutonic Knight best live show they did
That was their heaviest era
@David Lothbrok who gives a fuck about enter sandman
The Justice era Hetfield is what an alpha male looks like
James 88-now is what every man wishes they looked like
@@masteroffire5793 True, aging without losing any charisma
Agreed bro, he was like a Golden Montain Lion
His sexiest looking years are 1996-2001 :)

1:50 his vocals were so monstrous
His yeahs.
@@SviatoslavKaverinOHH YEAHHHHH!!!
*wakes neighbors out of bed*
He’s what separates Metallica from other Metal bands. His voice, lyrics, guitar playing and his pure anger in the 80’s
Go birds
To eagles
Exactly. Anybody who says Slayer was more metal then metallica in the 80s is insecure and full of shit. James is genuine rage

yes sir
5:43 this is what we all came for
Just tapping this spastically
James hetfield in the olden days was the fucking best.
indeed he was, absolute freak in these early days
He was the most metal looking and sounding kid in the early to mid 80s!
1:01...Lars gettin busy back there
2:08 kids when they can first swear
XD
Yo mama
XD so true Love Hetfeild and Metallica.
Hetfield in the late '80....pure metal machine!
why is this band literally fucking perfect????
It’s crazy dude
It’s not perfect. They have Lars hehe
@@WiredTank they also have james "i always sing exactly the same" hetfield
Cause they are fucking metallica
@@thebananaman5632 you're joking right?
No one could reach James at that time, he was the metal king
This is what really separates metallica from the rest. The voice.
Alexander Bancale Facts,all legendary metal bands no matter the sub genre are lacking one thing, a voice as good as james
Absofuickinglutely!!
Also it’s not forced, other metal bands trying sound brutal. It just comes natural to him.
@@sloppyjoe8718 agreed
@@byMisfit Hetfield wishes he has Dio's voice. Hetfield had like 3 surgeries for his vocal cords or something and still sounds like crap.
several scenes taken from live 1989. best live and heaviest performance!!!!!!!
Indeed it is
best metal band live ever
I think after Cliff's death, he slowly turned to something else.
I honestly think any performance from 89 could beat its studio recording
@Panther7
Slowly? My guy did you saw the 1st performance they did with Jason, they were playing at their most fastest and most brutal
0:13 the energy is just insane
James hetfield 80 scream + rob halford = Chuck schuldiner scream
The best kind of scream
Chuck shuldiners highs sound like they're influenced by Rob Halford. Don't know what inspired his lows though, but it's probably venom and slayer
"LIESSSS"
dont care for chuck's vocals at all
Just the entirety of Seattle '89 should be in this, Jesus Christ what a show.
Also at 5:20 did he say "Dick rash" lmfao
Yes he did hahaha
Yeah he used to alot, on Master of Puppets, he screams "pancakes goooo" instead of "fix me" as a tribtue to Cliff.
@@vaktmastaren6077 Please, explain the Cliff reference.
@@SviatoslavKaverinAt breakfast with Cliff, Charlie Benante asked what James was singing during that part of mop and cliff said “pancakes go”.

Everybody dared to rip James' style back in the mid to late 80's 😂
Including Tom araya lol
How ?
No matter what you say, James is the heaviest table
Agreed.
A very gifted human. What a fucking beast.
Black tank top James was another level ngl
Imagine all the raw energy, adrenaline and power running through them those moments on stage. Holy shit
0:18 10/10 scream james

ugh he’s so good
0:13 THIS HOW I SCREAM IF WAS ON STAGE
jeezus F christ, how he can scream like that ? 0:13, 0:18
False cords
It’s easy to scream like that I usually hurt my throat doing it but I still do it anyway.
Yh he did screaming but after like years he lost his voice sadly now he just doesn't sound the same anymore sad he used his voice improperly
@@alvinahmed9103 his voice nowdays is still epic tho, and he learned to growl it seems and use that to his advantage when it comes to reach some of those screams without tearing his voice out.

"Hush, little baby, don't say a word

The best one so far
There will never be a heavier personality than the Het...
Bro back in the day when they played fight fire with fire Lars would take that shit to the moon. And hetfield prolly has the most metal voice out of the big four
James hetfields voice was best on killem all and ride the lightning he was everything a thrash metal vocalist should be
No

He and phil anselmo are the most Bad Ass singers. just pure Anger and powe
KING James. long live the king
Old school James ❤
Can you imagine it’s 1985 and the whole set list is kill ‘em all and ride the lighting songs!? That must have been grueling 👀
In November of last year they did a show that was only songs from those two albums.
You totally missed the intro scream to Battery in Seattle 89.
If I'm listening to Battery, no matter which performance, I'm automatically screaming "yeaaaaah", like he did in Seattle 89.

Young James is a hero
Hetfield + Black Explorer = The King of Heavy Metal Frontmen 🤘
Metal Hammer Fest '85 was wild from what I've seen
best and complete metal singer
Absolutely
Yeah
Lars used to be so fit and fast man
