Thanks Andriy ! To be honest I want to re-record it someday because this cover is one of the very first video I did and I'm not completely satisfied with it
I'd like to see them do exactly what Andriy did in this video - play it unreversed one time, stand there while the house plays it back reversed on the spot, and then go into Blackened. It would be a Holy Shit moment for a lot of fans.
True but to be fair most Metallica harmonies are recorded with 3 or 4 layers of guitar and they dont sound any less epic live. Case in point, Fight Fire With Fire which actually sounds better imo.
Alessandro di Tria yeah like Bach did it and used to write stuff that made as much musical sense backwards as it did forwards! that's where Cliff got the inspiration for the damage inc intro and this is a little homage to that! I think the reversed version works better with the song jut forwards sounds pretty cool too!
Alessandro di Tria Another interesting trick is inverting every interval in a line, so if it goes up a minor 3, then down a half step, make it go down a minor 3 and up a half step
I wonder what inspired them to say, "You know, I wonder how this would sound like if it was played backwards?" I would have payed to see their reaction to hearing it honestly.
Isn't it unfortunate that a lot of epic Metallica intros aren't played live? ...And Justice For All, Blackened, Battery, Fight Fire With Fire, The Struggle Within and All Nightmare Long when played at concerts could totally use live intros that are arranged to be comfortable in a live setting. Drums, 2 guitars and a bass can still add a lot of layers!
Andriy Vasylenko James also plays Justice intro sometimes when noodling on the acoustic, usually before Unforgiven. I think I saw videos on TH-cam of that.
Andriy Vasylenko I believe it was horns and harp at first and then the bowed strings came in as it got heavier and then the band came in with the part they usually do live.
Out of all the covers to this intro, this one has got to sound the best, not only does distortion on bass sound badass, but the fact that this was so perfectly recorded, it sounds exactly how it does on the album, just... Bass!
Your videos are getting more and more professional. I like the way you look on the background it makes it feel like the bass is in the middle of interest and it makes people pay full attention to it. And of course - well played, Andryi. It's a great intro and you totally nailed it.
Man, you are such and incredible bass player, i can see your passion your feeling and it's awesome. i wish that you upload more guitar content from Metallica... amazing stuff in this channel
Andriy - This is one of your only videos over years that I did not give a "like" to until now. I have seen some sub-standard takes of this from different people. Your technical approach to this is outstanding. I gave my "official" like to this finally tonight. Your attention to the tight details between notes is very key, though I must say you missed two of them as well but who am I? Lol I am Evil.
#1: The true Blackened intro is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life. #2: Played on bass...holy fuck, brother! Amazing Слава Україні!
Reversing melodies or even entire sections note by note, or inversing them (instead of going up one step, you go down one step, for instance) is something classical composers actually did a lot.
I can't separate this piece of music from the utter masterpiece that is ...And Justice For All. It gives me chills every time I hear it. The intro to an album that can probably never be topped for me. Great job on the performance, in both directions.
The other intro (the one used in the official song), i love it, but when you played it, tears came down my face. You are an amazing bass player, keep on rocking!
duuuude, that's Fucking epic lol.... like that could have legit been the opening for blackened with the way you've arranged it..... plus your bass is a fuckin beast love the sound! \m/
Man, what can I say?...THAT WAS AMAZING! That riff is so beautiful in both ways, definitely one of my favorites. Please keep on doing great videos like this!
Thanks for making this! I love the vid where one dude does this on a guitar and I could listen to that all day long. When it's done with a bass, it's even better! :)
Hell yea man. This is unique as heck. It's quite catchy. You are talented mate. I wish I had talent like that. I bet you practise a minimum of 4 hours a day.
Agree 100%, best intro. In the album this intro always give me the sensation that the volume can increase for the eternity without hurting my ears, there is no such thing as too loud for this, for me this is the definition of infinity and we should send it in the space. Of course labelled Blackened Recordings so Lars is satisfied lol
Cette intro a une dimension épique incroyable et est une des plus belles créée par Metallica. Je ne m'en lasserai jamais, je crois. Very good job though ❤🤘
Always liked this intro, it gives a very thrilling feel, builds so goddamn hype for what's about to go next. To me, it doesn't sound that good unreversed, it'd be maybe better off in another section of another song, however reversed is the shit! I remember the first time I heard it, I was like 'omg this is quite killing me, c'mon, I like you're playing with guitars and stuff but get this fucking song started!' :D Then came that riff and when the song was over I felt like the happiest dude on Earth!

Povezlo povezlo
this intro gives me goosebumps every time
Kaosware I planned it for 2 years, and your cover was a trigger)
Thanks Andriy !
To be honest I want to re-record it someday because this cover is one of the very first video I did and I'm not completely satisfied with it
Hey I just saw your vid on it
Man sameeeee
If Metallica ever play Justice in its entirety they should end it by playing the Blackened intro the right way.
Hm, never thought about that!
I'd like to see them do exactly what Andriy did in this video - play it unreversed one time, stand there while the house plays it back reversed on the spot, and then go into Blackened. It would be a Holy Shit moment for a lot of fans.
it takes 4 guitars to play this
True but to be fair most Metallica harmonies are recorded with 3 or 4 layers of guitar and they dont sound any less epic live.
Case in point, Fight Fire With Fire which actually sounds better imo.
I'm surprised they've never tried using harmonizers live. Joe Satriani's used them to approximate studio harmonies, they're not bad.
This makes me think: should I reverse some of my riffs to see if they sound better?
Alessandro di Tria It's a very good composing technique. All turns out unexpected ways, you would've not gone normally.
Did it and found out something interesting :)
Alessandro di Tria yeah like Bach did it and used to write stuff that made as much musical sense backwards as it did forwards! that's where Cliff got the inspiration for the damage inc intro and this is a little homage to that! I think the reversed version works better with the song jut forwards sounds pretty cool too!

I took a poop backwards yesterday and I highly recommend it.
I wonder what inspired them to say, "You know, I wonder how this would sound like if it was played backwards?" I would have payed to see their reaction to hearing it honestly.
Yeah)
Nathan Ross it was Jason who did that I believe
@@Videohead-eq5cy it was Kirk.
I was always told it was Jason.
0:00 A soldier said to his family"I ll come back"
0:32 But he never returned.......
Right in the feels...
nailed it
@@mus7681 this made me kinda feels too man
and then suddenly he returns as a ghost amd haunts the family: main riff starts to play
What is democracy?

They played Battery intro on S&M. That's it. I'd really love to hear how all of them would sound live!
Aah yes. But the intro was done by the orchestra wasn't it?
Andriy Vasylenko James also plays Justice intro sometimes when noodling on the acoustic, usually before Unforgiven. I think I saw videos on TH-cam of that.
And some guitars, I think
Andriy Vasylenko I believe it was horns and harp at first and then the bowed strings came in as it got heavier and then the band came in with the part they usually do live.
best bass cover channel on youtube!
\m/\m/
Well Andry Vasylenko Ans Cover Solutions are great bassist
well, this one and Davie 504 are the greatest!
@@Wikipedia_Come_Pastel no lol
@@zorgn4271 Yes lol
4 bass tracks at once.
Guitar players worst nightmare
And every engineer’s nightmare!
Lars worst nightmare.
One of my favorite intro is Blackened totally beautiful \m/
This is the best metal intro ever \m/
Haven't seen anyone around this hoods with Spiritual Migration's cover in their pic... Amazing tho
Persefone!!!
Last time I was this early my parents didn't think I was a disappointment
\m/
DAMN, one of my favorites in Justice.
The intro is a masterpiece, thanks Andriy for give chills \m/
\m/ I have the chills over and over. This is a magical piece of music
Hearing it one way is grand, but back-to-back there and reversed is the chilliest of chills you can ever have...
... and on the bass...
Cheers!
I.

Thank you! It's my wife, she knows the camera stuff better))
You nailed it dude! Glad I subscribed to this channel.
I am glad you're here)
It´s an amazing intro. Frikin love it!
Yeah! \m/
That was amazing
Thank you
If cliff was involved with justice. Great job man!
Man, you are such and incredible bass player, i can see your passion your feeling and it's awesome. i wish that you upload more guitar content from Metallica... amazing stuff in this channel
Thank you Max!
Why is it so much better in reverse? It's beautiful and it gives me goosebumps everytime
One of the best intros of metal music
the intro makes me feel like i'm standing in pride.
you did a great job.

Of the millions of versions on youtube of this intro, this one is my favorite. Just awesome.
My brain instantly play the whole song in my head when I hear this reversed into
#1: The true Blackened intro is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life.
#2: Played on bass...holy fuck, brother! Amazing
Слава Україні!
i like how you can make your bass sound like lead. like cliff burton. i subbed because this is awesome!!!
\m/\m/
Awesome as always.
Thanks Bill!
Reversing melodies or even entire sections note by note, or inversing them (instead of going up one step, you go down one step, for instance) is something classical composers actually did a lot.
That Blackened intro was my favorite album intro. Battery intro 2nd and obviously FFWF 3rd.
0:30 GIVES ME CHILLS!
Basically, this is the Cliff Burton version. Awesome sound thank you🤘🏼
I've watched plenty of your videos now and man I tell you
You just gained a subscriber :)
Axell Rosas Welcome to our club) Thanks! \m/
I can't separate this piece of music from the utter masterpiece that is ...And Justice For All. It gives me chills every time I hear it. The intro to an album that can probably never be topped for me. Great job on the performance, in both directions.
Thanks man! I recorded it twice, to make as close as possible
I like the way it is on the studio version the best
Had no idea there was 4 tracks to this song and I've been listening to it every day for the last 10ish years
This is one of the coolest things I've ever heard
The other intro (the one used in the official song), i love it, but when you played it, tears came down my face. You are an amazing bass player, keep on rocking!

Thanks man! \m/
Awesome! First I've heard of someone doing it on bass instead of guitar. Definitely a whole new perspective.
Thanks!
Man, what can I say?...THAT WAS AMAZING! That riff is so beautiful in both ways, definitely one of my favorites. Please keep on doing great videos like this!
Thank you so much!
I would die for a whole cover of Blackened! You're giving me chivers on my chivers! Go Andrivy!
This intro is so addictive original+reverssed both ❤😭🤟🏼🔥
They sound awesome back to back ! Like it was just one piece of music instead of the same thing played backward
Brutal as hell ! Good job mate
Thanks!
If Cliff was alive on the justice album recorcing he would probably record the blackened intro like this
...if Cliff would've been alive during "justice" we would've actually been able to hear the bass.......
Blackened wouldn't have existed if Cliff was alive
@@lancia-037 Well the intro wasn't written for Blackened specifically, so it would just go at the beginning of some other song.
Damn it ! This is so cool with the bass !
That was AMAZING!!!! Congrats bro!! You're the best!!!
Thanks a lot man! \m/
This is the best version of this topic.
They made those bendings thinking on backwards to play it in forward. Is so freaking amazing!! Why they never do something like that, not even close.
Thanks for making this! I love the vid where one dude does this on a guitar and I could listen to that all day long. When it's done with a bass, it's even better! :)
Man... you are so talented
Holy shit dude, this is unbelievable
MetallicA used to gift us with these intros....but then Cliff left us and Bob Rock happened!
Awesome cover Andriy \../
Thank you so much \m/
Andriy is right, the intro sounds like crying
Cliff would have loved this :D Very well done!
epic intro, epic bass player :)
Hell yea man. This is unique as heck. It's quite catchy. You are talented mate. I wish I had talent like that. I bet you practise a minimum of 4 hours a day.
I never practiced that much)) But I wish I could.. Thanks a lot!
...this is just amazing
You just gave me an eargasm
Great job!
Reminds me Damage Inc intro a little bit
Agree 100%, best intro.
In the album this intro always give me the sensation that the volume can increase for the eternity without hurting my ears, there is no such thing as too loud for this, for me this is the definition of infinity and we should send it in the space.
Of course labelled Blackened Recordings so Lars is satisfied lol
is the best cover of this section in the interwebs
This is pure art
The intro reversed gives me chills I love it so much
Dude, this is really great! Bravo!
Thank you!)
This is way to fucking cool man! Made my day with this vid :)
=) \m/
most beautiful part in the whole metallice oeuvre imho
So hyped gonna listen blackened is the enndddd!!!!
Just watched again for the 453rd time, stunning
And still watching it pretty much every week.
Такое чувство, будто интро будет повторяться снова и снова, не прекращаясь ни на секунду. Магия...
Mad Essence Я встречал часовой луп с этим интро. Так что не одни мы видим 'магию' в нем
Mad Essence от второй части(реверс) аж мурахи
Mmm yes Adidas squats yes yes um
never knew the blackned intro could be even better, with bass ofcourse
Yeah, I also played a regular bass line here. No place for another video
Hey, I've been trying to play anaesthesia, I am getting a bet trouble with accessing the lower frets . Any tips ?
Hey, I've been trying to play anaesthesia, I am getting a bet trouble with accessing the lower frets . Any tips ?
I was so expecting the blackened intro that the end gave me a heart attack
Doctor: You have 1 minute to live
Me: *opens this video*
Doctor: wait, that’s 1 minute and 6 sec-
God: it’s okay, I’ll allow it.
Cliff: I’ll allow it too.
So beautiful! Great Job!
Thank you!
I will hear it everyday
heavenly intro
I got goosebumps when it reversed.
Yeha, me too!
This is heavy af Андрій!
\m/
Good job mate!
Fucking chills every time.
I don't think anyone can make a bass sound like a guitar and bass at the same time like Andriy and Cliff.
6 yr, still listenig...
AMAZING GNIZAMA
If Blackened was on Master of Puppets, this would've been the intro. I want this forward version played as my coffin is being lowered in the ground
So this is what Justice would’ve been if Cliff had lived.
This gave me chills it's incredible!
amizing \m/
) \m/
That sounded awesome
\m/
Cette intro a une dimension épique incroyable et est une des plus belles créée par Metallica. Je ne m'en lasserai jamais, je crois.
Very good job though ❤🤘
Cliff is smiling somewhere 🤘🏻
This is beautiful.
Thank you)
Well done, bro!
Thanks Michael!
This power is terrifying! :O
Beautiful
Cliff would be fuckin proud
Holy wow
EFFING BRILLIANT!!!!!!
