With Diamond Head having featured so heavily in Metallica’s early career, the cover of ‘No Remorse’ seems especially appropriate.
“I wanted to cover a song from Metallica’s debut album, Kill ‘Em All” explains founding member Brian Tatler. “Partly because Metallica covered songs from Diamond Head’s debut album Lightning To The Nations and it felt like things have come full-circle to me. None of the band members knew how to play any of the songs from Kill ‘Em All and I eventually decided we should all learn ‘No Remorse’. Then when we got into the rehearsal room, we played ‘No Remorse’ and immediately it just sounded great, it was very “Diamond Head” and it really suited us as a band. Of the four covers we ended up doing, ‘No Remorse’ sounded the best straight away. I’ve seen Metallica live over twenty times and they don’t play ‘No Remorse’ very often, but it’s always great when they do!”
“Of all the four covers, we almost didn’t have to work on ‘No Remorse’,” furthers singer and producer Rasmus Bom Andersen; “we all had to learn the parts, and it’s very difficult to play, but in rehearsal it did sound fantastic and we thought: “yeah, yeah, it’s gonna be mega”. It was almost surreal when we did it because it just felt incredibly familiar.”
When Diamond Head first released Lightning To The Nations 40 years ago in 1980, few could have predicted the importance it would carry with regards to heavy metal’s new wave and sound. Stacked and packed with riffs, Lightning To The Nations would be one of the prime catalysts for a movement known as the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM).
Re-imagined, re-recorded and re-born in 2020, Diamond Head’s forthcoming 40-year celebration of their genre-defining debut album is a scintillating shot of fresh metal energy. With Lightning To The Nations 2020 listeners experience not only the rare phenomenon of crisp, fresh and new sounding songs with very little of the obvious original elements altered, they will also be treated to four supreme cover versions… And in prime position stands Metallica’s ‘No Remorse’.
Recorded over several sessions between various locations, from France to band members’ home studios, Lightning To The Nations 2020 central hub was Andersen’s Raw Sound Studios in London. It’s where Brian and Abbz did the guitars in February and March of this year, and then with the COVID-19 chaos striking, Andersen worked on the album between April and July, with Tatler’s watchful ear inspecting final mixes and tweaks in early August before sending off to mastering at Metropolis Studios in London.
This edition of the album sees Diamond Head spreading their wings and creating the heaviest of homages also to Led Zeppelin, Judas Priest and Deep Purple. Lightning To The Nations 2020 (November 27th 2020, Silver Lining Music). Available in multiple formats, special D2C bundles, including a limited edition autographed ‘No Remorse’ poster: smarturl.it/DH...

Metallica covers Diamond Head
Diamond Head covers Metallica
This is the way
You have spoken 🙏
It is the way;)
Metallica and Diamond Head are like a symbiotic relationship. Without Diamond Head, Metallica wouldn't have sounded as we know today, just like most metalheads wouldn't even know who DH is if not for Metallica covering them.
@@hallfrir3716 hand washeth hand
This is the way
Having YOUR song covered by an older band that had influenced you is probably the greatest compliment a musician can get
Dumbest thing I Eva herd
yeah even Blitzkrieg covered "Seek and Destroy "
@@matthewrogers8778 Why???
@@Klatt09 Yep, don't forget Lemmy/Motörhead: Whiplash-Enter Sandman.
Lars has probably spontaneously combusted after hearing this!
A war between the devil and the reaper, that is possibly the most metal thing I have seen in a while
The circle is now complete.
We just need diamond head to cover Megadeath now
@@clcartlidge we also need Metallica to cover Megadeth
@@TheLucidDreamer12 Haven't you heard Kill 'Em All?
@@dshack5690 ONLY THE MASTERS OF METAL, DARTH.
The circle is definitely now complete...this version gets the adrenaline flowing
If they had told to James from 80's that in the future Diamond Head was going to cover a song from Metallica, James would never had believed.
He'd got sober !
Just the old stuff not the new soft shit
@@larrydorsey7858 ok boomer
Same thing with motörhead
@@larrydorsey7858 he said the 80, ofcourse the old stuff
Society works so much better when bands are just happy vibing on each other's songs instead of filing lawsuits at each other over using the same two notes in their song as the other band's latest single.
Diamond head might be one of the most underrated bands to ever walk the planet
Def. Them and Budgie \m/
Agreed
yea, and the funny part is they were such a huge influence on metallica
@@JahBronee Also Pretty Maids too
They are but for some reason they are hard DMCA'ing every upload of their refined EP of their first album which is nicknamed "The White Album" which contains the best versions of each song. Also a big reason to why Metallica called their 1991 hit "The Black Album".
DIAMOND HEADS ARE FOREVER!!!!!
without diamond head metallica never would existed !!!
They would have but may have gone in a totally different direction.
Imagine how proud James would be when he hears this for the first time...
Yeah, but maybe I'm nuts. Chorus vocals sound a bit like James, no?
I think James will have no remorse
I was thinking the same!
@@petgeek1 Maybe like latter-day James, when his singing voice improved.
After Lars sues the shit out of them
Metallica + Diamond Head = Metalhead
*DAVE HAS SPOKEN*
*this is the way*
Diamond head made Metallica after Dave
This version completes a beautiful circle of heavy ass metal. Long live Diamond Head!
Excelente..!
Metallica cover Am I Evil,
Diamond Head cover No Remorse.
What's the best,
These two are legends.
Really nice to see a band that actually reads their fans comments.
actually many metal musicians listen to their fanbase or read comments don't think they don't do it! it is the pop artists or top 20 morons they are like puppets they don't read or commenting because the music industry (music labels) behind it don't accept critisism its all about money and clicks they not deal with their fanbase.
@@BillyK6 Well, not only metal musicians :D
@Skip R haven't since the black album
They do
If ya didnt catch it: The Red devil at the beginning is the one from the cover of the Jump in the Fire EP.
i notice that too, good reference.
Thanks, professor.
Got it already🤘🏼😬
Killer cover!
Nice, It's like i have seen that before but i don't remember, so it's from Jump in the Fire
As a lifelong Metallica fan, I can admit that this is better than the original. I love James but he was a kid on Kill Em All and Ras' vocals honestly blow James' out of the water. The amazing modern production also gives it a real kick.
In 1984,Metallica cover Am' I Evil? song from Diamond Head..in 2020 after 36 years,Diamond Head cover No Remorse song from Metallica..worid is a circle..
Thanks, professor.
it's because winter approach, everybody up the covers
Yes, the world is a circle, good to know that you are not a flat-earther
Metallica Covers from Diamond Head,The Prince,Am i Evil,It's Electred,and Helpless.
The Prince & Helpless are the best! Lightning To The Nations was the best album from 1980 (even edging out Iron Maiden!).
AWESOME!
Legends! IT's you!! Dude!!!
Remo!!!!
Fuck yeah, Remo!
As a big Metallica fan, i knew about Diamond Head because of them.
You guys nailed it on this one. Sounds so refreshing. I love this ❤
for a second i was like: "damn no remorse is a diamond head cover as well?"
That's exactly what I thought. For a brief time I was confused as hell.
Same here. I was like “hey wait a second”.
Yep. I was all "wait wuh?"
Yeah I got confused for a second
Lol same
FIYAH!!!!
You Jamaican?
foya
wait i've been watching your videos for months without noticing u were a metalhead? how?
@@benjamingutierrez704 yes
I dident know diamond head still existed, but holy shit this is gem material. I used to blast "sweet and innocent".
Shame that they had as little success they had.
And they still rock. Listen to The coffin train
@@wietman96 Amen Brother!! Love that Album🤘🏻🤘🏻
They only have one original member--guitarist Brian Tatler.
I came across with them rigth now
Dio once said Heavy Metal will never die. Here's the proof
Metal is coming back for round 3! FUCK I LOVE METAL!
Heavy Metal is already dead.
Rap Music rules today.
@@ronnydittrich2181
Not dead, just not main stream pop music....that's what Rap is.
@Josh Tyler Yes.
Vladimir Przblmtowitsch Metal music is very much alive ! What is rap music ?
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Vocals are really good. Their musical DNA s are interchangeable.
Yeah, they kick the shit out of it!!
Diamond Head has a lot deeper influence on Metallica than I had originally thought. Incredible how under the radar Diamond Head was. A band that was ahead of their time and didn’t get their due.
They got their due from those of us that knew
Kill 'Em All is totally influenced by Diamond Head, many similar riffs, and even the way Lars sings...
Misfits.... too
@@brenorfs2 Lars? Singing? What kinda world do you live in?!
@@brenorfs2The way Lars sings haha
Diamond Head's,raw,heavy sound and intricate guitar work had a significant impact on Metallica's early style and helped shape the thrash metal genre.
Am I Evil? Yes I am, and I have No Remorse.
Haha nice
We will seek and destroy the damage inc. and give justice for all
lol good one !!
Nothing else matters in the eyes of the insane
We must Fight Fire With Fire and Ride The Lightning To The Nations !
Diamond Head is literally the best band name ever.
I love how many bands are remastering their old tunes
I wonder if any of the guys from Metallica could of ever guessed the band they covered in the 80s, who inspired them so heavily would cover their own song almost 40 years later. This is absolutely awsome cliff is probably ecstatic right now
Cliffs dead man
@@darraghkelly4797 sad but true
@Yeah I'm a Troll And I Love It stfu
Then again, Motorhead covered Metallica on multiple occasions, with one such cover even getting a Grammy.
@Andrew Salter Metallica had been doing Diamond Head covers at shows before Cliff even joined the band.
Also, it was primarily Lars who got the rest of the band into Diamond Head.
Absolutely, and undeniably, a true match for Metallica's version! And a true homage, indeed. Heavy AF! Thank you dearly, for still being around!
wow, this is modern production I LIKE
The band who helped inspire the biggest metal band ever, is now covering one of their tracks.
Full circle.
Motörhead did it first.
@@11DNA11 Cool
As a superfan of Metallica, this is fucking great! Nothing better when your heroes appreciates your work
I thought this song originally belonged to diamond head and metallica covered it in kill em all. Glad to know its the other way around ,as a metallica fan.
Brian Tatler is one of the most inspiring, original, influential and therefore best guitarists in music!! Diamond Head got me through school in the 80’s and when I hear that stuff now it still puts a smile on my face. In 83 Metallica came along and blew me away. Meeting Brian and Lars together around the corner from Hammersmith Odeon is still a moment I won’t forget. PLAY IT LOUD.
Next tour Metallica should be the opener for Diamond Head!
just curious if metallica ever open for any other bands ? except black sabbath...................lol...
It would be amazing
@@richiemao6991 They opened to Venom and Ozzy
Fuck that Metallica should open for diamond head and they are absolutely not allowed to play any of their garbage music from the black album or anything they have released since then lol
@@richiemao6991 they opened for Saxon
old school....... massive heavy riffs.... God save Heavy metal...
Amen
It's cool to see the band which inspired Metallica the most to play, cover one of their songs from the debut. Great.
Ripped off u mean
@@stevenkilpatrick6397 homie you do realize Metallica was first a Diamondhead cover band James literally got his singing style from them. Now give this band the respect they’ve always deserved and not force them into the shadow of Metallica
@@mitchroger3671 That must of been a huge setlist. Just because they played 3 or 4 songs doesn't make them a cover band Now stop pretending to be a know all, you dick!
I love the heavy metal community, Long live metal!!
I review metallica albums on my channel if anyone is interested
Brian is one of the most underrated guitar players ever.
So happy to see this. Decades ago, Metallica officially covering “Am I Evil?” was so groundbreaking. And now, all these years later, you guys are returning the favor. How epic.
Its nice that Diamond Head is generous enough to help Metallica find its way after having been so lost for so many years.
Underrated comment 😄
This is a classic right here
THIS, is a killer Metallica cover
It's not a Metallica song
Yes it is !! On there first album kill em all 1983 !! Check it ou !! 👍
Of course it’s a Metallica cover
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
@@jessecarterrockabilly8481 lol so used to saying that 😃
The Art Director for this video deserved an award imo.
SO SO UNDERRATED
The Ross Halfin art is another icing on the cake for the camaraderie between these two legends
DIAMONDHEAD 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽 40 years later still ferocious 🤘🏽
Now they've come full circle
Huge Metallica fan here and I approve this cover! Diamond Head rocks! 🤘🖤🤘
please look up the original version bet you be shocked
All Metal Heads Hail The GOD FATHERS OF METAL MUSIC!!
I love Sabbath too, but this is a Diamond Head video.
@@shmick6079 Do You know this version of Paranoid? th-cam.com/video/_Y7zigazYKY/w-d-xo.html
@@TruthandjusticeXXL that’s the original version of paranoid.
You mean Judas Priest, who was active a year before Sabbath?
Well they're all from Birmingham (and near by), so we can agree on a birth place at least.
Rock on . 64 and still a metalhead .
Praise the metal gods for this cover...outstanding rendition by the progenitors of thrash, Diamond Head!
Original Gangsters. The whole band is on fire. Godamn!!!! ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
can't believe I'm just now listening to this for the first time. This is an OUTSTANDING cover, seems to me like Diamond Head and Metallica are perfect at covering each other's works.
Am I Evil release and now this?! Diamond Head is truly incredible! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
It's a great cover. And that's a nice compliment because Metallica is not so easy to cover without suffering from the comparison. I'm so happy to hear a band from the 70's still have the sacred fire!
Your about to die.............
Now! Focus!
Lol!!!!!!!
EXCELLENT point about the struggle of covering Metallica! Rock on!
i love it❤🔥🤘🏿🤘🏿
They're covering the sound that they inspired, strangely awesome.
Diamond Head is the most underrated band in rock and metal history. One of biggest influences on thrash metal and an awesome rock/metal band in general!
Here we go with the whole “underrated” Wankery on another TH-cam video! Predictable and “Overrated” one more time. Jesus!
@@russellmcgurn4217 But they are. They basically invented thrash metal but most people have never heard of them. I know you're one of those "not like other guys" people but please explain how they aren't underrated
@@arminc4658 you are so right. And I'm like the other guys, in fact, I am the most "another guy like me" in the world. So this is my list of underestimation: Saxon, Diamond Head, Barón Rojo, Philthy Animal Taylor, Lars Ullrich on tour, Raimbow, Dave Mustaine as a human being, Clive Burr&Paul Di Anno, and obviusly, Real Madrid and Margaret Thatcher.
Full circle for James that diamond head covered one of HIS songs
I been a fan of both Diamond Head and Metallica for many years now. It still amazes me the different takes of the Diamond Head songs from Metallica as compared to the original. This is a refreshing take from the other side. Thank you guys.
I love that the music video is something straight out of Metalocalypse, it only makes this absolutely perfect cover even more amazing
this is fricking HAVY
Ace from a UK fan
In an alternate universe Diamond head got famous by starting out playing obscure Metallica songs
True shit .
The circle is complete....👅
F#¢ k yeahhh lol 🤘😎🤘
What about Blitzkrieg and Budgie though
Why have I never heard of this band till now..wtf..they rock!!!
I have the original albums. This is what it would have sounded like if they put it out in the 90's. It was more metal on the original album, but it's still metal now. If I can buy this version, I will. Diamond Head is still awesome.
This is what being a Metal family is all about.. sharing and being there for each other 🤘😎🤘
Best blazing guitar intro to date,
Thank you for bringing back the days of my youth with this music.
And one more.
If I die and they don’t play this music at my funeral. I'm not even going there.
The best feeling in the world must be when the band that inspired you covers one of your songs. Amazing!!
Top,!!!! 😮😮😮😮
Imagine being in a crappy band practicing in someone's garage, jammin' on covers and stuff.
Then, over 30 years later, the musicians you looked up to are now playing covers of *you*.
Honestly, I'd put this as the 2nd best Metallica cover I've ever heard (Sabaton's "For Whom the Bell Tolls" cover is #1), and the video is pretty cool too. Gettin' a kinda Rob Zombie vibe from it.
Would be one of the most satisfying feelings ever
The mighty Motörhead doing "Whiplash" is one of the other great Metallica covers. Five years later and Lemmy's still gone. Damn this world.
Yep, sound comment.
@@haigd 👿🤟🤘😈
Hear Death Angel's take on Trapped Under Ice
I can just picture the guys from Metallica grinning from ear to ear hearing this cover. So good.
Hot damn! This sounds good!!!
One of the best thrash songs ever 🤘🏽🤘🏽
Holy crap! Easily one of the best Metallica covers. Chugs along nicely 🤘
Christ diamond have killed it
I was like " Is this what I think it is?" This iS sooooooo sick to see them returning the favor
Diamond Head...still kicking ass in 2020! 🤘 Absolutely killer cover gents...bravo!
BADASS
my God that guitar tone. FIRE. What an incredible cover.
Diamond head covers Metallica?
Ladies and gentleman. Boy and girls. We've come full circle.
Production sounds awesome.
Wow, this is killer! Diamond Head still sounds awesome. I think Cliff would approve! 🤘😎🤘
I usually hate re-recordings but this one is really awesome and does the original justice, congrats!
Wish YT had a heart react ❤. Very well done Diamondhead 🤟😛🤟
Oh shit. That bassline ripped down my head. Great cover, sounds perfect on their way 🤘🔥🤘
Diamond Head covers Diamond in 2020 is a gift I didn't know I needed! Sounds amazingly refreshing! Buying!
TOOOOP!!!
This has to be one of the tastiest riffs ever. Diamondhead needs more attention they clearly deserve it.
Yes every real metal fan should go and buy their material. Help them get the success they never got back in the day.yea
I know not original band members apart from the guitarist but they carry the name still
Awesome that the demon on the executioners table was the demon from Jump In The Fire!
@@Akjl049 Biden in his own piss.
@@ButcherGrindslam uggh, you really didn't get the point of the video, did you drone. lol, still thinking 2 parties are different. they all go to the same bank, and own shares in the same business. you sir, are future cannon-fodder. blindy led to your slaughter...
BRUTAALLLLLL🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤜🤛
What a fantastic cover !! This one fits Diamond Head so well, I can't wait to hear you guys play it live :)
Metallica should cover this song because they are big fan of this band.
Edit: I can't belive how many people don't realize it was a joke.
They did on kill em all e.p

Awesome Metallica cover by a legendary band that inspired Metallica. The circle of life is complete. Also, I accidentally listened to the first 30 seconds or so at 1.25x speed. It sounded badass! Try it.
I had to try it hahahaha you're right lol hahahaha 🤣🤘🤘🤘
Yeah this sounds wicked... I usually hate cover versions. Metallica cover Diamond Head brilliantly, and Diamond Head cover Metallica brilliantly. I'm kinda pleased, so happy this didn't disappoint.
