People *used* to feel that way until Metallica started releasing a bunch of crappy albums and acting like arrogant pricks. They are still popular and loved…but not as much as before.
I appreciate you gave this a chance and that you dissected and actually enjoyed a lot of it. Makes me want to do this with some of the music that I've dismissed over the years. The irony in these comments is that a lot of people aren't giving you a chance!
“There is a principle which is a bar against all information, which is proof against all arguments, and which cannot fail to keep a man in everlasting ignorance-that principle is contempt prior to investigation.”
I really like your honesty, Insite and opinions on these songs, from whom are my favorite band of all time. Anyways, great content and I look forward to seeing the next video of yours.
Lots of comments about "not expecting this and that" from Metallica, you just haven't heard enough Metallica man lol. This album is exactly what I expect from Metallica
I appreciate you trying to broaden your horizons. Went through a similar phase a while ago. I don't think I wanted to straight up inherently dislike music anymore. I'd have to give things a try before I made decision. "Battery" actually started my metal Renaissance. Had a bit of a falling out with the metal I was listening to, and "Battery" threw me back in. Had a great time since. You mentioned you like when they get technical. Cant wait until you get to ...And Justice For All.
I'm proud of you for sitting through the entire album. It seems you have accumulated some deep pre-conceptions of Metallica over the years. This album can grow on you, to the point where some time later you find yourself saying: "... Man, how did I not get how good this is at first..." Thanks for sharing your reaction! You are like a unicorn in the heavy music realm, it’s fascinating.
How can you be a metal head and not like instrumentals, solo’s or melodies. Not a true metal head. Also the concept of the album is ‘control’. Controlled by drugs, politics, war
"Pretentious guy who hates Metallica without ever experiencing them actually likes Metallica" Really? I mean, nowdays, I don't even bother with them, but the old shit? These guys couldn't miss in the 80s.
Everything you expected that was going to happen, you knew because Metallica created a pattern other metal bands copied. Yes, they trailblazed and are reaponsibile for all the bands you love today.
Keep in mind that for many of us Metallica fans the lyrics are just as important as the music. James writes some seriously deep lyrics that mean a lot to many of us.
Yea… I could never be friends with someone that openly shit in Metallica and I don’t even listen to Metallica hardly at all. It’s just the metal head in me that if you come after Metallica you’re coming after me lol.
14:20 Master of Puppets is actually about drug addiction and specifically addiction to cocaine and heroin. The lyrics are pretty explicit, I mean... "Veins that pump with fear", "Taste me, you will see / More is all you need / Dedicated to / How I'm killing you", "Needlework the way", "Chop your breakfast on a mirror", "I will occupy / I will help you die / I will run through you / Now I rule you too". The song is written from the perspective of the drug itself, being the eponymous Master of Puppets "pulling the strings" of the addicted. 18:50 The Thing That Should Not be is the title of a novella by H. P. Lovecraft which inspired the song.
He gives off the modern metalhead vibe who's obsessed with 9 string guitars being indistinguishable from the bass, breakdowns, 012 riffs, vocals from the satan himself. Not listening to metallica and going along with what others say, looking down on them at every chance seems weak to me. Listen and make up your own mind, brother. At least he's trying in these videos. But I can still taste the salt from here
I hate how people act like Metallica is so terrible because they play in standard tuning many times and play normal 6 strings. It's funny honestly the elitist attitudes they all have. Like you said shows how weak they are.
When he said he doesn’t care for instrumentals. I was thinking “well he’s never heard Orion and To Live Is To Die. Two of the greatest instrumentals ever
Master of Puppets is about addiction and how it control's you. The crosses an early grave. You need to pay attention to the lyrics along with the instruments, every song tells a different story. Maybe then you would appreciate their music more.
The funny thing is the band you like were influenced by Metallica. You must haven't read any literature that any kind or type of metal bands started their music journey because of Metallica.
It’s funny how he says that James hetfields voice is better in master of puppets and ride the lightning but the funny thing is that James actually never had singing lessons until the black album because he suffered a voice injury while recording
That's always been the legend, sure.... but I don't know if I believe it. I have a hard time believing he wasn't made to change a thing or two for the first major tour
The fact that James plays their rhythms (and some leads) while singing is one of the big reasons why they’re held in such high regard. And his downstroke technique is a big reason why he’s known as Papa Het. I remember when this came out. Nobody had ever heard anything like it.
No. That’s why he is known as “Papa Het”. But whatever the reason is , they need or junk it, that’d shit is gay AF. James even puts it on his jacket ! They need to stop that shit.
Master of Puppets song is about drugs. It is supposed to sound chaotic at times. The drug is the master. The melodic part is the high you get from the drug and the chaotic parts are the drug messing with you. This album came out in 1986 not 1989. Kill Em All is the most Thrash sounding in IMO.
Generational music tastes kind of fuck up everything. The record companies control all of that shit. Yes, they even controlled Korn, Deftones, all of that shit. They know the limits of albums sales and the market saturation. Only the very top bands can call their own shots and make albums when they want and how they want. Metallica did this. They can do whatever the hell they want. But the sad thing is, people get sucked into a genre and reject....or try to reject anything before it. Just like the Nu Metal fans did to metal before it. But it just didn't work. Bands like Metallica came from the underground and stayed there for years....earning it in the clubs and word of mouth, not some video. That's been lost in music. Maybe it's coming back? Because there are no real record companies promoting music like it was. The reason why us very old Metallica fans, fans from the club days, still love them is because they were just like us......from the lower class, no money, into skateboards, never cared what the fashion trend was and they hit it hard. We could relate. I don't know your background, but you just can't relate to the old days if you weren't part of it or grew up with nothing. They did it from the ground up living in a fucking van. We had to sneak into clubs for fucks sake.
@@benferris2764 I mean, starting with the Black Album, they went tame--sold out--to go mainstream with crap like Enter Sandman and Unforgiven. Metallica has been a disappointment for me since 1991. Thirty-two years now, they've been pumping out garbage.
@@captzero007 Their first four albums were the best. Black album wasn't bad but it was not thrash metal anymore and people don't like the change. Death magnetic and hardwired were also pretty good but not as heavy and raw as their first records. I never really listened to load, reload and st anger, because i didn't like the sound of it. Their 80s thrash era is the most iconic
@@maksymiliank5135is there any band that continued the same sound over decades?? The Who changed, Pearl Jam, Led Zeppelin, Ozzy, Pantera, the list goes on. Metallica evolved like every other band, good and bad. Some last me, some stuck. It's all personal preference I suppose. I dipped my head at St. Anger, but Death Magnetic and Hard Wired connected me to the old days. Metal up your ass!! Glad he's listening either way, Metallica, Johnny Cash, Jimmy Buffet, JSB.. they all speak to me in one way or another!!
Its always cool to see someone rocking out to Metallica. I heard you say you like it way more than you disliked it. Just accept it man, you're a fan :)
you say you don't like instrumentals but in both albums you haven't even listened to 20 words of the lyrics in total ???????? even in the lyric video you ask towards the end: is this about war and politicians, yes you can take it that way but is pretty fucking obvious it's about drugs
Oh God, the edgy metal snob. Yes, bruh, you need change. You say Metallica is repetitive, yet you call for Deftones... probably the most repetitive band in human history.
You have been told so much to not like Metallica, it’s almost funny. Besides the fact that everyone you listen to now, sat in their bedrooms learning these songs. You have become as cliche as the Lars can’t play drums memes.
The thing that should not be...descent into madness. Chaotic madness. Based on HP Lovecraft's writing. Disposable Heroes...back to the front...sending the soldiers to their death...also, the riffs are representative of machine guns ("barking of machine gun fire"). Vietnam. Album was released in '86. The more you listen to it, the better it gets. Good for you for giving it a shot, man.
So dude, believe it or not I heard my first song from Metallica in ‘88 when … and justice for all -came out. I was blown away.. so much so that I went down to Licorice Pizza (you’ve probably never heard of that but it was a record store😂😂😂)and bought every other known album by them. Master of Puppets was the one I was drawn to the most, because I felt it was when I feel James came into his own vocally, and they made it sound historic. This is why they say they were the most influential metal band of the ‘80s.
Ok dude so we need to have a conversation. I watched most of your Ride the Lightning reaction and half of this reaction. Im a life long fan of Metallica and Im not going to shit on your reactions. I am also a big fan of death metal. I think that you should be commended on having the balls to do a reaction to one of the best albums ever(and thats across all genres of music, its in the National Archives for art and music for a reason). I also think your honesty(about what you can understand at least)is a good trait to have when you walk into something with a negative perception when so many others find hearing Master of Puppets a very positive experience. There are a few things that would help digesting your reviews in the future.... 1) It wouldnt hurt to save your thoughts until the end of the song. Or at very least pause, share with the class, then continue. You are missing 45% of the music. 2) In context saying things like Metallica sounds like Limp Biscuit is historically incorrect. Limp Biscuit sounds like Metallica would be the correct way to say something in this context. 3) Is probably the biggest thing that is not good with your reviews of Metallica, your attempts at making yourself sound like you know what you're talking about in a musical sense fails in the most infuriating way. You threw in the word triplets a lot in the Ride the Lightning reaction and a couple times here, but sections with triplets you didnt mention at all. That note! You get a sudden excitement over a note....that was repeated 4-5bars ago. Nothing in those sections changed. Calling 4/4 time isnt 80s....its been the "standard" time signature since cavemen picked up tree branches and banged them on rocks. I made it through the whole review of this album and it was not good. I feel like your thoughts on Metallica keep you from having an opened mind about thier music. When i mentioned your honesty, I think I may of spoke to soon. Your critiques of Lars, James, and Kirk is the same thing everybody says about them. So are you really listening to the album for the first time or are you sharing what you have heard or seen what other people have said and tried to apply it to the classical era of Metallica just to be edgy? I'm in no way trying to change your mind about Metallica...your opinion is yours to hold, but your point is mute when your opinions are not really yours.
In 2015, Master of Puppets became the first metal recording to be selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the National Recording Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant
Should actually do a Reaction to Master of Puppets live 89 Seattle Live shit Binge and Purge and see what Metallica was like in their prime. (Everyonr does lol) Really the whole Live Shit binge and Purge Concert is fucking epic!!!! It's 2 straight fucking hours of endless god damn energy!
I wanna hate on this dude so bad but I won't because this dudes reacting honestly, best I can say is that you should listen to the lyrics they have meaning like master of puppets.
Man I’ve seen Metallica in my home town twice and I can say they will play all fkkn night if the crowd stays. I saw Justice for all and the black album
Just went into the comments and haven't laughed this hard in a while, fucking battlefield in there. Y'all realize that music is subjective, right? Lmao
28:11 That's because that whole entire first verse you talked the ENTIRE TIME. Saying how you were going to start listening, while simultaneously failing to listen 😂
Because the cool kids say Metallica sucks and you're supposed to diss them or you aren't a true metal head. It's pretty comical honestly but unfortunately this isn't that uncommon...alot of the metal elitist Metallica haters aren't familiar with most of their stuff.
I'm quite surprised that I'm enjoying your honest reaction to a band you don't particularly enjoy can't wait to see you react to more Metallica in the future well done 👍
I’ve listened to many bands after getting into metal a few years ago, it went from random country music, to classic rock, to hard rock, and then to metallica and then into other metal groups. Setting everything aside, metallica is the only band where the first 5 albums in a row I loved every song on every album. They will always be my favorite band I think.
Watching this was like watching a car crash.... you know its terrible, you sense it..... you want to turn it off, but you cant because you might just see something tragic
One major thing that you havent picked up on in your listen throughs is Cliff Burton's bass work. The intro to For Whom The Bell Tolls is played on the bass and you totally missed his bass solo in Orion. Too busy talking about how boring it was to really appreciate it and as a result, you missed out on some really special bass work.
I mean it's kinda stupid to say. I avoided listening to Metallica, and then say you shit on them. How do you shit on something you tried never to listen to. Makes him look dumb.
James didn’t develop the vocal quirks that you find annoying until he was trained to do them during the recording sessions of the black album. Bob Rock, who produced the black album, told James that he wanted to hear more “yeah’s”, and that thing wherein he started adding an extra syllable to the end of each word, I.e., ‘Dp my dirty work, scapegoat; do my deeds, for you’re the one who’s shamed-AH.’
I’ve been a huge Metallica fan since the mid 80s. I know a lot of metalheads who don’t care for them. It’s up to you to like who you want to like. For me- Metallica will always be my number one.

Without Metallica most of the bands you named probably wouldn't have existed
No probably..You stated FACTS🤘
This is 100% true
Their influence is unmatched
What is this guy babbling about? It's heavy metal not overwrought, detuning
Agree
Metallica is your favorite band’s favorite band

Hating on bands you’ve never listened to purely because they’re popular is the height of poserism.
Welcome to life.
I really like your honesty, Insite and opinions on these songs, from whom are my favorite band of all time. Anyways, great content and I look forward to seeing the next video of yours.
This is the best Metal album of all time.
I have a feeling your gonna like st anger
love the video bro keep it up also i think ur gonna love and justice for all its their heaviest and best album imo
Metallica is your favorite band's favorite band.
Lots of comments about "not expecting this and that" from Metallica, you just haven't heard enough Metallica man lol. This album is exactly what I expect from Metallica
the sound and feeling of early metallica music is just so good
I appreciate you trying to broaden your horizons. Went through a similar phase a while ago. I don't think I wanted to straight up inherently dislike music anymore. I'd have to give things a try before I made decision.

Pretty good? 😂😂😂 This the perfect metal album. This is an absolute masterpiece
How can you be a metal head and not like instrumentals, solo’s or melodies. Not a true metal head. Also the concept of the album is ‘control’. Controlled by drugs, politics, war
Being a metalhead doesn’t mean you have to like instrumentals… wtf
@@nickyelovich3872true, but all of the elements are what complete a metalhead
in a way... it does@@nickyelovich3872
A mouse begging for cheese? Wtf haha
Think about a drug addict scurrying around trying to get a fix. I liked that comment, yet he did miss the entire theme of the song.
"Pretentious guy who hates Metallica without ever experiencing them actually likes Metallica"
Really? I mean, nowdays, I don't even bother with them, but the old shit? These guys couldn't miss in the 80s.
Everything you expected that was going to happen, you knew because Metallica created a pattern other metal bands copied.
Yes, they trailblazed and are reaponsibile for all the bands you love today.
Wrong. Music is subjective. Society doesn’t dictate shit. Or we would all be listening to Taylor swift

My brother what the hell else do you do with a song??
With how much you seem to like the chugging guitars, I'd bet you'd like And Justice For All the most.
agreed
no they don't suck. that is the short answer. How can anyone not love this? It boggles the mind.
What a classic album...nobody cant touch after this.
Bro doesn’t like guitars solos or melody. Why do you even listen metal? Those are some of the better elements to metal!
He gives off the modern metalhead vibe who's obsessed with 9 string guitars being indistinguishable from the bass, breakdowns, 012 riffs, vocals from the satan himself. Not listening to metallica and going along with what others say, looking down on them at every chance seems weak to me. Listen and make up your own mind, brother.

This album was interred into the national archives as one of the most influential albums of all time.
And YES! Smoking weed while listening to Orion was a thing, at least it was for myself and those I was with.
Being a big Metallica fan, I do appreciate your reviews of these albums and the way you do it, keep this going man, it’s great
Everyone saying he talks to much... it's a reaction video, if you don't want talking listen to the songs on your own
@@sonnymontigny4733 I guess that's true. But I've seen several comments saying "I can't hear the music with you talking"

Can’t wait for Justice. I think you’ll fuck with it the most. It’s the most technical, Lars really steps up for it
How is it possible that the dislike button is not about to burst?
Because most people aren't idiots who watch 2 minutes of a video and get mad.

If someone thinks Metallica sucks then their taste in music sucks. Straight up
43:26 its called a groove
42:06 groove

The more you listen to it, the better it gets. Good for you for giving it a shot, man.
Your problem understanding this is because you ran before you could walk dude! These guys made your world possible!
Why an instrumental? Why not! Because they can tell a story with just the instruments. James’s vocals are just icing on the cake.

you cant hate unless you listened...but this is your first listen...my god. on another note that beginning rant was just useless.
😂 totally agree
Ok dude so we need to have a conversation. I watched most of your Ride the Lightning reaction and half of this reaction. Im a life long fan of Metallica and Im not going to shit on your reactions. I am also a big fan of death metal. I think that you should be commended on having the balls to do a reaction to one of the best albums ever(and thats across all genres of music, its in the National Archives for art and music for a reason).

It's 2 straight fucking hours of endless god damn energy!
Bro... its 3 easy words... I LIKE IT.... jesus
I was the opposite, I loved Metallica and Slayer and thought all the new metal was stupid and sounded shitty. Now I love it all.
I wanna hate on this dude so bad but I won't because this dudes reacting honestly, best I can say is that you should listen to the lyrics they have meaning like master of puppets.
Man I’ve seen Metallica in my home town twice and I can say they will play all fkkn night if the crowd stays. I saw Justice for all and the black album
Just went into the comments and haven't laughed this hard in a while, fucking battlefield in there. Y'all realize that music is subjective, right? Lmao
You just had to be there boy. It was a whole thing.
28:11 That's because that whole entire first verse you talked the ENTIRE TIME. Saying how you were going to start listening, while simultaneously failing to listen 😂
damn im a metallica fan but you reacted openly and not in a hating manner. idk what the comments are on about
Some people can't handle honest opinions about the thing they wrap their entire identity in.
how can u be a hater but never listen to the music
Because the cool kids say Metallica sucks and you're supposed to diss them or you aren't a true metal head. It's pretty comical honestly but unfortunately this isn't that uncommon...alot of the metal elitist Metallica haters aren't familiar with most of their stuff.
Metallica paved the way for all your music. Get a grip
He likes them now though, did you not watch the video
“And justice of all” is waiting for ya
This was metal back then. We didn't have 100 boy band elites back then. Metallica was elite back then.
You don't even know what are you talking about
I'm quite surprised that I'm enjoying your honest reaction to a band you don't particularly enjoy can't wait to see you react to more Metallica in the future well done 👍
Dont trust anybody who hates the first 4 metallica album
goddamned well agree
Well, duh, big mouth. They sold about a couple a million between them, plus their ridiculous tour schedule
I’ve listened to many bands after getting into metal a few years ago, it went from random country music, to classic rock, to hard rock, and then to metallica and then into other metal groups. Setting everything aside, metallica is the only band where the first 5 albums in a row I loved every song on every album. They will always be my favorite band I think.
Thank you for talking during the beautiful timeless riffs! 😡😢
Love your channel by the way, never stop.
So, you've never listened to Metallica but you hate them. That's pretty fucking logical
Love your reaction during the interlude😁🎶🙆💯🙏🙋
Watching this was like watching a car crash.... you know its terrible, you sense it..... you want to turn it off, but you cant because you might just see something tragic
Gotta listen to Kill Em All now! Might as well. It's their first album and its Metallica at their most raw.
One major thing that you havent picked up on in your listen throughs is Cliff Burton's bass work. The intro to For Whom The Bell Tolls is played on the bass and you totally missed his bass solo in Orion. Too busy talking about how boring it was to really appreciate it and as a result, you missed out on some really special bass work.
why are some people hating on him in the comments he liked the majority of it lmao
I mean it's kinda stupid to say. I avoided listening to Metallica, and then say you shit on them. How do you shit on something you tried never to listen to. Makes him look dumb.
Because he has no idea what the hell he is talking about. He is embarrassing himself.
You do like it :) These are indisputably great labums worth listening to. :)
Hard to appreciate the music and listen to all the details when u talk the whole damn time
James didn’t develop the vocal quirks that you find annoying until he was trained to do them during the recording sessions of the black album. Bob Rock, who produced the black album, told James that he wanted to hear more “yeah’s”, and that thing wherein he started adding an extra syllable to the end of each word, I.e., ‘Dp my dirty work, scapegoat; do my deeds, for you’re the one who’s shamed-AH.’
Bruh! How can you hear anything with you talking all the time! You can't go 10sec with opening your mouth! But, what ever
I mean, he is wearing earphones.
I’ve been a huge Metallica fan since the mid 80s. I know a lot of metalheads who don’t care for them. It’s up to you to like who you want to like. For me- Metallica will always be my number one.
