      Been saying this for years. How many bands sound different on each album and yet you know who it is instantly? Most bands you can interchange songs on each album and they'd sound the same and fit right in. That gets boring. Only a few of the greats can make each album its own. Like you said, it's what has made Metallica so listenable over 40 years. Never boring.

      I don't know if this is true but I think it's really hard for him to do songs that are more than 2 albums apart because the vocals are so different. That's why most of these aren't existing already. I don't even know how you could possibly get current james to sound like justice james. That said, if he found someone who could instead cover the vocals then he would have free reign on the album combinations.

      That really is a song that has such massive potential. I think the original version has some great ideas, but the verse guitar riff plods along a bit, and it desperately needed a guitar solo to further the story. It sounds unfinished, like a demo. There too, was plenty of room for some orchestration, keyboard work to add so much more depth to it. It could have been a monolithic epic like Outlaw Torn, with some broody Unforgiven class to it, had there been more instrumentation. Id love it personally to have been on S&M 2! 🤘👍

    Blown away by this. So good to hear your first Ride The Lightning rework and you really nailed the mix and sound of Ride. Love the demo intro and the RTL/FFWF like riffing.
    The way you altered the vocal melody in the pre solo part was insaaaane. It was like a never heard before cut section from Trapped Under Ice with Dyers Eve lyrics lmao. And that solo was hot tits straight outta 1984 Kirk's fingertips. It baffles me how you nail Kirk's solo style and sound from any era.
    This makes me want a few suggestions:
    Damage, Inc. on Justice
    Fight Fire With Fire on Justice or Master
    Of Wolf & Man on Master
    Wherever I May Roam on Ride
    That Was Just Your Life, The End Of The Line & All Nightmare Long on any of the first 4 albums.
    And The Unforgiven on Ride The Lightning with Fade To Black's structure? Long intro w/ solo, heavy bridge and epic outro solo could be cool 🤷
    Never stop doing these man, love this shit!! \m/
