imagine a concert ; where the crowds voice is higher than the back vocals. non-stop mosh pits. fastest version of Whiplash. band's best energy yeah, welcome to Seattle '89. take your place and start headbanging.
@lookwaticando909 yes!!!! I've been a fan of him since ST/IG and Ozzy. I actually got to see Infectious Grooves at a local club in the Detroit burbs. And they had super young ass Brooks Wackerman (heh im the same age as him AND got to meet him when he was with Bad Religion) on tour. Seeing Brooks back then just made me wanna quit playing drums. I didn't, but watching him I did lol
@@adithyastren6218 Absolutely. Massive mosh pit on the floor, the whole atmosphere was just intense. The Cult was the opening act, and Ian Astbury nearly got nailed by a whisky bottle. I would say if anything, this video didn't adequately capture the insanity.
Cliff was a musical genius and gave Metallica the sound they needed. Jason on the other hand brought a whole new level of energy and aggression never seen before in Metal/Rock history. We used to called Jason the "new demon" in Metallica. He was scary and was absolutely insane at concert.
Go back with a winning lotto ticket knowledge. Buy the rights to their music and give it back to them.. So they dont have to wait 20 years to get them.. Also inform them Jasons backing vocal CANT be replaced.
Holy shit. I just watched Toronto 1986, and every song was played at least 5% faster than studio tempo, with about 6 songs over 20% faster. Battery lost a whole minute. Creeping Death seems impossible.
27:18 "we're gonna play some old shit right now" at that point Kill 'Em All was 7 year old and considered old shit, in 2022 the latest album is Hardwired To Self Destruct and is 6 years old.
Man, I remember when I saw them in 2019 and James said something like "We're gonna play something off out first album, who's heard Kill em All?" I'm paraphrasing because I can't remember exactly, but it was funny that James thought they were going to be playing some obscure old stuff that people might not have heard. Then the entire stadium erupted with cheering and screaming.
Nah, Newsted with the buzzcut and goatee is the most badass version. Could be I’m not really a fan of long hair on him, whenever I was a kid and opened up the Justice CD, I asked my dad if he was a girl. Lol. Good times.
I'm in this video! Was the kid 16 seconds in waving the devil horns at the camera! Too cool! It's funny to see, my long hair got replaced with a shaved head and I had no tattoos now I'm fully covered. This was an awesome show. I still remember the energy. Fucking awesome!
That's cool man, you look cool. I looked that good back then also lol ;) First concert was KISS/Queensryche/Crue 85' at Orange Pavillion in San Bernardino. I was 16.

Stop complaining Lars is a good drummer knows how to play the drums but guess who can’t you I can to. And even if Lars did suck guess who is a millionaire and who is not.
@@yeetfeet1878 I actually do play the drums, among other things. But nice attempt at an ad-hominem there, buddy. Fact is, although Lars did indeed play good drums back in the day, these days he's average at best. There's no shame in admitting that people you look up to just aren't what they used to be.
I’m 23 years old, and if I could go back in time to one single night in history, it would be this one no doubt. I saw Metallica in Detroit in 2017, and it just was not near the same. I wish I could’ve seen these guys when they were just a couple years older than me..
The music is great, but I depise the video, no shot is longer than 1 second, they keep switching all the time, my brain hates that. I had the video cassette for this and only played it once for that reason. I'd rather listen to the CD's of that package.
That whole sequence of Jason sitting and starting the piece from to live is to die and them walking out and joining him to the badass transition into cliffs favorite jam is just beautiful man. Easily my favorite part of the concert. Jason's volume swell piece of his solo is pretty F'in awesome too
My mom said she was at this show. It was like 8 or 9 months before I was born, she said she was so happy after the show she returned with my dad because they had an argument before. This show must of soaked into her ovaries or something. She did have backstage passes and met the band and stayed for like 5 hours after the show, they must of had good food.. I am fine to be honest, now I just play bass with a pick, have a gutural voice and i have long hair, although for some reason it doesnt grow on the sides of my head.. and once my band muted my bass entirely on one album and I have no idea why.
Yea cliff used to complain his "neck kinda hurt all the time"...the manager says in the interweiw. I told him maybe he should tone down the head movements...he shrugged it off sayin..naw it couldnt be THAT!
@@WilliamDurrant-km4gd Did Lars or anyone else in Metallica ever do cocaine? I always thought these guys were mostly a beer band but stayed away from the shit that fux u up royally
The whole mix sounds good but this is not what it really sounded like there’s a bootleg somewhere showing the raw soundboard of this show Lars best kit IMO
Metallica were super heroes here. Fully engaged, could replicate every song like the record, solos were perfect, drumming was thunderous, and James...his godly tone and vocals here made him the best heavy metal singer...Balls to the wall, this is pure Metallica!!! When he says "fuck yeah" its fucking euphoric
Live was so far far far fucking better than record! This version of battery smash the fuck out the amazing one recorded as open track on master of puppets
It wasn't just 1 show, they were 2. First one night, and then the other one. And in all the videos of the concert I have seen, they plug the two performances into one. Because of that, sometimes Jason magically appears with a brown bass instead of his black one. (And I know he could have it behind as a backup, but fuck it)
I have heard both bootlegs , I could not tell you the difference , energy was there for both and I can't tell which days which songs were used for the official release either
I mean to be honest you probably aren't wrong xD They ruled the fucking world, and 89-92 I felt was their TIGHTEST fucking era as a band. I would not doubt though that there were even crazier shows than this though. Metallica concerts just seemed to be un fucking matched.
Check out their "Live from Edmonton, Canada (August 16th 2017)" if you haven't seen it yet. It's not Seattle 1989, it's a whole different Metallica, but I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
Kinda. But imo Jason's departure was a symptom - not the cause. I suspect the bell first rang when Cliff died and they realized that it was ringing for them. So they decided to stay together and keep playing, but at the same time they had to overcome the loss and kept going with understanding that it could end for them just as quickly. I think Kirk mentioned that he was gonna sleep at the bunk Cliff fell out of the bus from. So I guess they just decided to cash out in a way. Use their reputation to play whatever they want and make money from it to enjoy the time they got left. I think it made them wake up from the rock star dream and reconsider their priorities. But Jason didn't go through all of that and became an emotional punching bag for others to let anger out on. And James always looked like the most honest and emotional guy of them all to me. So yeah, now the band is a way for them to make money and have fun, but I wouldn't go as far as to say that it in any way undermines them being the biggest metal band in history.
I said the exact same thing when I listened to the Black album a few times back in the day. I knew then that Justice was their pennacle and they reached it. It sucks it took them so long to make Hardwired...to self destruct. That is the album that should have followed Justice. Hardwired is very good.
Nightmare Zero, you're a typical dumbass... They had much more shows like Seattle on Justice tour, not to mention years to come when they had huge amount of energy left. They started dying out somewhere around 1994.
I mean I love Pantera, Megadeth, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden. But to me no band will ever come close to what Metallica has done with their first 5 albums. The last 2 albums are great too. People always talk about how Kirks or Lars' technique sucks. Im just a regular guy who doesnt give a shit about pentatonic scales or whatever. I just love the sound that comes out the speakers. This is music not the fucking olympics so I just love the musicality of the band not the speed that theyre playing or technique that theyre using. Im a music fan. Looking forward to seeing them in Estonia in July
Martynas Menkevičius ikr like for example people talked short about Kirk using wah effects on the fade to black solo in Moscow. Like dude it sounded epic!
This is an absolute masterpiece of pure metal in all its glory. Nobody could touch Metallica here and they are not even close to my favorite band but this performance is fierce sledge hammer to the temple perfection.

This was the absolute peak of Metallica. The look on Newsted's face at the end (@2:02:40) looks like even he felt there was something that night that would never be recreated. Also, his verse on Whiplash was absolutely sick.
Jason Newsted turns 60 years old today. Let's take today to honor and praise this legend. Jason, your stage presence was something to behold and an absolute force of nature. Happy birthday you fucking beast 🤘🏽 🥳
In my mind it is no offense to every other legendary concert every band has done that’s still talked about decades later like this one but I mean come on James vocals made him sound like an loud angry lion Jason’s backing vocals you would think he was possessed by how he sounded at times Kirk’s playing was phenomenal like on the albums themselves and lastly Lars’s drumming was almost perfect yet so fast and that snare! Sounds like a machine gun going off and with the echo in that arena makes it sound like there’s about 100 guns going off in there plus the crowd!! Loud and just word for word perfect! The moshpits and headbanging from men and women in there I COULD TALK FOREVER AS TO WHY THIS CONCERT TO ME IS NUMBER #1!

James at the end of AJFA: Goodnight everyone! *continues to play 4 more songs* "Goodnight everyone!" *Continues to play 3 more songs* "Ok fr this time goodnight everyone!" *plays one more song*
Every concert in the 80's I went to said; "Good night Albuquerque" more than once. They would proceed with an 'Encore' & come back out. Some like Metallica have multiple encores. Almost forgot: Guns and Roses ONLY crybabies NOT to return for an encore. AxelRose=😭
It’s just for the people that stick around long enough. Kinda like a secret gig for the huge fans who stick around after the show it technically “over”
@@TheTrooperMB right, but today's Lars plays at about 10% of the level he was playing at this show. In this show he's got mostly solid tempo, hangs back in the fills so he doesn't end up rushing. Even plays most of the double bass parts.
I love that you can hear the natural fluctuations in tempo throughout this performance. The band pushes and pulls where it feels natural. No in-ear monitors, just a bunch of loud-ass monitors on the ground to hear each other. Perfect.
That’s what I’ve always enjoyed about this band. They don’t have cookie cutter performances that all sound the same from one show to the next. They always had the human sounding element to them. It disappoints me when I listen to a band live and it just sounds like a machine performing the songs!
Jeff Porcaro once said "a good musician knows how to dance around the beat and make it intesresting and less tight for the others to be able to play around too". in short it gives room to improvise knew/original things to make the performance unique. playing always the same at the very note and be tight like a virgin pussy... well just play with robots or along a beat machine LOL. one of Steve Wonders' best songs has been recorded without clic and the song is all over the place. still one of the best songs in music history. go figure... if it feels good, it's right. simple as that.
That part when Newsted makes love to his bass, and then Hetfield and Hammet gradually enter the scene with their guitars...always causes me skin-flaying goosebumps, no matter how much time passes. This concert is ETERNAL.
@@nickwilliams6621 No, I'm sure he means that Cliff wouldn't approve Jason being screwed over, because he was a nice person and very respectable before his death.
This is in my opinion the best album live it otherwise ever recorded. Glad the video is on here to watch for free it's really hard to find the original.
28 years old born in 95. My dad got me into Metallica. My very first concert was 2009 death magnetic tour in Dallas at the AAC. This will forever be my favorite band of all time. I’d KILL to experience the boys when they were younger like this!!
@KingKevin139 Not a joke. I just like when Lars points to the crowd and tells the camera man to look out at the crowd, and then that shot of the crowd is awesome!
This part always reminds me of when they showed this on Beavis and Butt-Head and Beavis got pissed cause butthead said James looked like the cowardly lion😂😂😂😂
James was only 26 at this concert and despite that so self confident in front of such a huge crowd - very nice!!! Best live video ever in history of mankind 🤘🏻
No disrespect to Cliff(dude was 1 in a billion), but Jason pulled them thru a really tough time in their career, I think they should make a song ode to him at some point. The guy deserved better, he was loyal, and full of life, energy, and metal baddassery they needed at the time to keep doing what they loved. Epic band forever, and this is how I remember them.
This "live album" is one of the most meaningful things I have ever come across, more than a decade ago. In my mind it has its own deeply complex, mysterious mythos. I've been to KeyArena where it went down. Clear day, late summer, late afternoon. Put in my earbuds and let my mind run with it. I credit this music with saving my life.
This why Metallica has been held in such high esteem in the Music world. They played every note with conviction, and gave everything in their concerts. Although I know that Lars is a bit of a shadow of what he was, he was on fire here and he inspired many drummers, myself included with his approach to his drum parts. Lars definitely was a great drummer. Great to see so many people highlighting Jason's contribution to Metallica's success. To quote James in a recent interview, "he was a force on stage" You can really see that here.
the impression is that each of them took a combination of trenbolone + Viagra + cocaine and went on stage. The brutality of the instruments and rage of Jason's backing vocals make this the biggest performance of any live band, not just metal, but any genre. Master of Puppets is the show's biggest moment and it's mesmerizing. Every day I see at least one song from this show, and that's been years.
Did you knew that Metallica's 1986 album Master Of Puppets has been selected for induction into the US Library Of Congress National Recording Registry - making it the first metal title to be given the honor!!
Sometimes I feel deeply sad thinking about death and the eternal void of nothing, but because of things like this I feel proud to be alive, in this era, too see this piece of history even in a TH-cam video. You can feel bad about an endless list of cruelness of human being towards every f*kn thing, but you can also feel proud, and joy.
This track is one of my Metallica's all time favorites even after all the years (of which there are not that many - the song is exactly as old as I am after all).
I've always wondered what this concert would look like in 1080p, the live shit videos always had some kind of fuzzy filter over them which is because they are old concerts but this concert would be 1000000x better in complete hd
pause at 7:497:50, look at that still image for a while. You can see how ''small'' the stage actually is and how genius the filming and editing have to be in order to make this live footage feel so epic.
I, too, was there for night one. If I had known it was going to be THIS good, I would have gone to night 2 as well. Good to see a few of my lucky fellow concert goers are still rockin"! :)
This might be the BEST heavy metal show recording of all time. These guys were in their prime in every way imaginable. I love them today, but there is a magic from this era of metallica that has never been re-captured so far in my opinion.
No, it hasn't, but I feel like All Nightmare Long and Hardwired are sequels to that era. Can't recreate it, so they just stuck back to their roots. Hardwired sounded like it came from 80s Metallica

Metallica ruled the earth at this point no question
I’m 23 years old, and if I could go back in time to one single night in history, it would be this one no doubt. I saw Metallica in Detroit in 2017, and it just was not near the same. I wish I could’ve seen these guys when they were just a couple years older than me..
The music is great, but I depise the video, no shot is longer than 1 second, they keep switching all the time, my brain hates that. I had the video cassette for this and only played it once for that reason. I'd rather listen to the CD's of that package.

When we attend to METALLICA Concert. it's the best time of our life
This is the peak of Metallica. Their best performance. It is all downhill from here. Nothing will ever be better than this.
Check out their "Live from Edmonton, Canada (August 16th 2017)" if you haven't seen it yet.
It's not Seattle 1989, it's a whole different Metallica, but I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
Kinda. But imo Jason's departure was a symptom - not the cause.
I suspect the bell first rang when Cliff died and they realized that it was ringing for them. So they decided to stay together and keep playing, but at the same time they had to overcome the loss and kept going with understanding that it could end for them just as quickly. I think Kirk mentioned that he was gonna sleep at the bunk Cliff fell out of the bus from. So I guess they just decided to cash out in a way. Use their reputation to play whatever they want and make money from it to enjoy the time they got left.
I think it made them wake up from the rock star dream and reconsider their priorities. But Jason didn't go through all of that and became an emotional punching bag for others to let anger out on. And James always looked like the most honest and emotional guy of them all to me.
So yeah, now the band is a way for them to make money and have fun, but I wouldn't go as far as to say that it in any way undermines them being the biggest metal band in history.
I said the exact same thing when I listened to the Black album a few times back in the day. I knew then that Justice was their pennacle and they reached it. It sucks it took them so long to make Hardwired...to self destruct. That is the album that should have followed Justice. Hardwired is very good.
Nightmare Zero, you're a typical dumbass... They had much more shows like Seattle on Justice tour, not to mention years to come when they had huge amount of energy left. They started dying out somewhere around 1994.
Nah. They were fucking awesome till 1994 +-

That’s what I’ve always enjoyed about this band. They don’t have cookie cutter performances that all sound the same from one show to the next. They always had the human sounding element to them. It disappoints me when I listen to a band live and it just sounds like a machine performing the songs!

This why Metallica has been held in such high esteem in the Music world. They played every note with conviction, and gave everything in their concerts. Although I know that Lars is a bit of a shadow of what he was, he was on fire here and he inspired many drummers, myself included with his approach to his drum parts. Lars definitely was a great drummer. Great to see so many people highlighting Jason's contribution to Metallica's success. To quote James in a recent interview, "he was a force on stage" You can really see that here.

I wish cliff was at this concert man, him playing to live is to die would be spectacular.
This track is one of my Metallica's all time favorites even after all the years (of which there are not that many - the song is exactly as old as I am after all).
I've always wondered what this concert would look like in 1080p, the live shit videos always had some kind of fuzzy filter over them which is because they are old concerts but this concert would be 1000000x better in complete hd

1:22:15 - 1:23:44 is the definition of Metallicas and all metals peak live show performance!
What song is that?
@@alanyael And Justice for All is the name of the song. It's the title track of the album they toured during this show!
@@espenanka thanks, I didn't recognize it
This might be the BEST heavy metal show recording of all time. These guys were in their prime in every way imaginable. I love them today, but there is a magic from this era of metallica that has never been re-captured so far in my opinion.
Definitely not the best live drumming performance.
No, it hasn't, but I feel like All Nightmare Long and Hardwired are sequels to that era. Can't recreate it, so they just stuck back to their roots. Hardwired sounded like it came from 80s Metallica
Tom: Fuckin well said !
Battery never had such energy like in 1989 Seattle
CDoodgeE: 1986 at the Cow Palace in San Francisco.
Jason was no Cliff... and Cliff was no Jason. Legendary monsters in their own ways.
damn good saying.
