When I saw your video I was kicking myself for not mentioning it in the fb post, but super glad you included it!

      The God That Failed is even more overlooked because you can't just grab any guitar and play it for it to sound good, it's supposed to be in E flat standard tuning. Though it is super kickass if you do tune your guitar to E flat standard.

    Great vid Uncle B! Another Metallica song Ive seen/heard played wrong is Whiplash after intro, “1234, 1234....” thing... then where the fast low E ride kicks in and the accompanying 3to4 descending chord bursts. Cliff’em All clearly shows how James played it live with a lil hammer-on at end of cycle. I think it’s interesting how simple it is but people play it in various ways.

    I love that you're giving the Black Album the love it deserves. A lot of Metallica fans dismiss the Black Album because they only consider songs like Nothing Else Matters, Unforgiven, Roam, and Sandman, but they ignore how may badass and awesome riffs, solos, lyrics - just songs in general there are. In that sense the Black Album is kind of underrated honestly, so I think everyone who likes Metallica ought to listen to this album the entire way through before they form an opinion on it. Also, I'm glad someone else other than me notice that the sickest 'Tallica riffs often come right after the solo, especially The Struggle Within. Hell, overall Struggle Within is such a big bad motherfucker I can't believe so few people pay any attention to it, like you said. Anyways, thanks for this video, Uncle Ben, I didn't think I'd be writing a paragraph about how much I love the Black Album tonight but here were are. You rock dude, keep on doin what you're doin.
    P.S. I'd love to see a Weekend Wankshop breaking down some of Kirk's lesser appreciated solos on this album

Also on the sad but true comment you made in regards to the tuning, if you watch the documentary metallica did for this album you can see James playing like a surf green guitar during those parts and notice that the guitar has a really thick string too. Never realized how low it was actually tuned!

    If you watch the documentary "A Year And A Half In The Life Of Metallica" you can see James recording the guitars for Sad But True and there is a section where he plays the low D chord and the 2 chugs only, to make the riff sound heavier. I also think this was a suggestion by Bob Rock. Turned out to to be one of the nastiest riffs ever.

    Totally agree with you on Struggle Within... but that riff from Through the Never! Actually two of my favourite songs from Black... add Of Wolf and Man to that :))

    Not necessarily a riff but the best lick on the whole album to me is the intro to the solo of don’t tread on me. That wah sounds awesome.

    Hey Ben have you ever thought about doing a beginner course? Your videos are super informative and I love your style of teaching but some of the exercises seem pretty advanced.

    Awesome list. Probably in top 3 albums of all time. Agree with all of your riffs. Every riff on the black album is tough and pissed.

    Always loved The Struggle Within, and yes, it's tough to get a rythym with that verse chugging

    Dude, I always love your videos, especially where you break down confusing/hard to hear/incorrectly tabbed riffs and solos. If I ever get serious about the electric guitar (I play acoustic and bass, so I bend electrics out of tune due to my GRIP OF DEATH), it will be your videos that I use as a guide.
    Also, ALL videos need more doggo. As a matter of fact, a doggo introduction video would be fine by me.

    I clicked on this video in hope that you found a hidden little riff that I found a long time ago, but I was disappointed :(
    Check out Wherever I May Roam, after the 2nd chorus at about the 3:40 mark, right as the lead guitar comes in to play the little bridge before the chorus repeat into the solo.
    If you strip the lead guitar out of that section, you can hear a nasty little riff in the background that is NEVER played again through the entire song! I first noticed it when I was a kid playing Guitar Hero Metallica, and for whatever reason, just straight up stopped playing at that part. It cut out the lead guitar and just left this little sick ass riff in its wake. Totally check it out!!

      People bash this album because it was the turning point when metallica went from one of the best bands in metal to a dad rock band. It sold so many copies because it was dumbed down and simple.
