@@letuna030 well a lot of people will dunk on Lars as a drummer, but in this instance I'm blaming him for the production. From what I heard, it was his idea to fuck with the bass.
@@_got_sound_6406 Says who? Bob Rock stated that it was most certainly riffed out and originally a demo that they recorded after AJFA as a legitimate original to be used on their upcoming 5th album, except they recorded the demo tuned in E-standard. When going through the material in pre-production, Rock suggested that they tune down to D to make the song heavier. Even if there was an idea that carried over from any previous album, the Black Album songs were so worked-over in production that none of them has any semblance of any previous material prior to 1990/91.
Wasn't it supposed to be an instrumental originally? Or am I thinking of another song? I KNOW I read, or heard and interview with one of the boys talking about a song (that I really liked) was conceived as an instrumental, but got lyrics added. Lol, shit I don't know.
These reworks can be phenomenal tools for anyone learning compositional theory or trying to branch out in the use of motifs and themes. They’re pretty genius, really. To pick up on the very subtle nuances in timbre, timing, tone, accenting, etc. is at invaluable skill and can open infinite doors to creativity when found in a rut. Cheers.
4:00 ist utter perfection. Yet, a friendly advice. Don't rush those. You know your shit. People will be patient. Quality over quantity. Your stuff is beyond good.
As funny as it seems, I think that’d be badass af. James’ voice on the demos of Mechanix/mechanics was...special, and Dave’s nasally voice is unique and works for most of Deth but doesn’t do the power of the riffs of the song justice imo. If we could get James’ gritty Kill em All voice with the tempo and feel of Mechanix as recorded by Megadeth that’d be awesome.
That Harvester of Sorrow verse lick used in the chorus is subtle but so effective (2:16) I love how you work certain tendencies from the selected album into each song. Really makes them pop rather than simply adjusting the tone.
I said it on the premiere just now and I'll say it again. I cant thank you enough for these justice reworks. That album was above and beyond anything else metallica ever did in my opinion and you knock every single one out the park. So thank you for giving me the metallica that should have been for all these years!!
AJFA was the first “heavy metal” album I heard and I was immediately entranced; I’d never heard anything so amazing. Still holds the top spot for me. These reworks are brilliant! Thank you for you time and effort to bring so many of us joy. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
If The Day Never Comes was on AJFA. Personally wanna hear this because it’s structure is a lot similar to how One is. Clean intro into distorted chorus, do it twice, then Lars gets his little “moment” before the last verse of the song till it goes out with banging instrumental kickass solos
@@artanmcmanusarchives yeah but I want StateofMercury to do it because they actually take into account how Metallica would've arranged the song back then, rather than just changing the tone and keeping everything else exactly the same
This is so incredibly good. Justice is my favorite album because of its unique tone. Hearing all of these songs is a truly refreshing way to listen to one of my favorite bands of all time. What are the possible copyright issues and chances of throwing these up on Spotify?
WOW. Justice is my favorite album of all time...and this was simply great! My son just showed me this and the Sandman cover. That chord arrangement you added in Sandman gave me goosebumps! Wow...damn. Thanx for taking the time to make these. 👍
Still, consider doing what if Trapped Under Ice was on KIll'Em All and what if Symphony Of Destruction was on Peace Sells, ty! This Version of Sanitarium is Fire! \m/
Dude you make amazing stuff, you inspire me to do my own stuff similar to this and I just wanna say thanks for doing what you do. Keep up the good work \m/
Ok, so I love your reworks. But I am such a big fan of the original Sanitarium, that this one didn't do much for me to be honest, but then you hit us with THAT OUTRO! Holy hell man! I'll have to give the whole thing a few more listens ...
@@StateOfMercury So I played it a few more times, and it sorta grew on me. Noticed a few more things you changed from the original that are actually pretty cool. You can really shred, and that tone you use for the chorus is righteous man! Subscribed!
My wife just came in, asked me what I was listening to and, after I explained it to her, said this seemed like a waste of time. I might need to get a divorce. But, in all honesty, this was epic! Sanitarium was the first Metallica song I ever heard when I was 8 and now 27 years later remains my favourite! You are doing an amazing job here! Cheers from Germany!
Actually if you listen to Metallica's original demos for that song, that's pretty much it. Sad But True as if it was on "Justice." Here: th-cam.com/video/Rqs1E9hvvvU/w-d-xo.html
Great as always, but please make a KeA track on Justice's style, after the Black Album it's the most interesting option while not being too apart like St. Anger or Load.
An AJFA rework for Lords of Summer would be amazing. I mean, it already has the fast double-bass parts and harmonizing guitars. But it could seriously benefit from a more ambitious, complex song structure, a better solo and the Justice tone!
You should make a Discord server with Bryce Barilla so that you guys can take more direct suggestions and stuff as well as interact with fans a bit more. That'd be pretty epic.
I love that Harvester of Sorrows style of playing the riff, the sharp tone of the leads and when waiting for the bass line to come in, it never did. Authentic AJFA version of the song man - I didn't read the title while listening to this, and I didn't have to. Speaks volumes of your skill with this stuff :D Ever thought about branching out? Like, idk.. Mouth for War if it was on TGST or something
It would be interesting to listen to the" Until it Sleeps" riffs and solo displayed as if they were the 4th track of "Puppets". Following "Sanitarium"'s structure. I love the original as it is, but there's still a lot of power to be unleashed in that song, if one is thinking with a "thrash metalhead." Just another suggestion.
You can say whatever you want about AJFA mix and musical production but it's undeniable that this album has a unique and beautiful vibe...
Nicolás Veas when you think about it every single one of their albums has had a vibe to it
Bro ajfa is their best album
@@FF-oo8nz I liked the songs on it the best, but the production forces me to downgrade it (though I blame Lars for that, not Fleming Rasmussen).
@@EvilxSausage I think Lars' drums give some unique, good sounds to it though- or do you mean something else?
@@letuna030 well a lot of people will dunk on Lars as a drummer, but in this instance I'm blaming him for the production. From what I heard, it was his idea to fuck with the bass.
YES! Every song ever should be on "...And Justice For All"
With bass....
@@theRayzz on "...And Justice For Jason"*
I have been saying this for ages
Even Orion?
@@Foxikaze only that no, it would be good on black album, but is best where it is.
If Sad But True Was On Master Of Puppets
It must have a long bridge, epic solo, another bridge after solo before third verse, as it is with them all. I'd pay money to hear that
Sad But True on MoP its The Thing That Shoud Not Be
Sad Puppets That Should Not Be Mastered
ptschafer why not it was originally written for MOP

I was waiting for the bass line to come in, Oh that's right......AJFA....... authenticity. Nice job!
It's really faint, you gotta listen closely. Just like the original! :D
Lol you can actually hear it a bit, just like justice. People say the bass isn't there on justice, it is, its just insanely quiet
Jason used to shred this bassline live. They really did miss some great sound with Justice. Nonetheless.
No it was there. There was a lot of complexity and dynamic range it took a lot of work to write. But it's turned down to -20 so never mind lmao
Get out of my head thought thief
If That Was Just Your Life was on Justice!
Fuck yes.
th-cam.com/video/ketQzC1YTJw/w-d-xo.html
Almost like OUR WORLD BLACKENED !
Yes mate
Do The Four Horsemen with justice tone, it's got similar structure and length of the justice era songs and style and would be awesome reworked
wow i didn’t know i wanted this until i read your comment lol
YES
I’ve been saying this
So... Mechanix. Like really, the walking bass line in the chorus is what MAKES that song. You can't kill it like that
@@absinthefandubs9130 i agree, walking bassline is awesome, especially when it raises in volume, but i just love the 000 riff after the second chorus
MY FRIEND OF MISERY AS A INSTRUMENTAL (JUSTICE OR MASTER)
Would have to be …And Justice For Jason AJFA for that to work with how bass heavy that song is
You just got your wish dude...
Wasn't it supposed to be an instrumental originally? Or am I thinking of another song?
I KNOW I read, or heard and interview with one of the boys talking about a song (that I really liked) was conceived as an instrumental, but got lyrics added.
Lol, shit I don't know.
4:26 Goosebumps. That was a very "Justice" idea!

To pick up on the very subtle nuances in timbre, timing, tone, accenting, etc. is at invaluable skill and can open infinite doors to creativity when found in a rut. Cheers.
Such minute differences too, like certain solo runs played with a bit of staccato vs a more legato style
4:00 ist utter perfection. Yet, a friendly advice. Don't rush those. You know your shit. People will be patient. Quality over quantity. Your stuff is beyond good.
I agree, your songs are way better than other remixers. Patience pays off, thank you + good luck
Well said! StateofMercury is a true professional at his craft!
My Friend of Misery on AJFA maybe? Thats the most unique arrange ive seen and those drums are unreal. Keep it up.
first 13 seconds of the song will be silent then
the absence of a bass guitar kills the whole chill vibe behind it
Joseph Palma My Friend of Misery on …And Justice for Jason, then. Instrumental, at that
@@aerobolt256 still,the thought of it being on ajfa is depressing with no bass
You just got your wish dude...
No bass - check
Loud Toms - check
Weird Hetfield singing voice - check
We're all good!
That's James signature tad of delay and no mid on vacal
@@stephenknapper243 Yeah I know. Beautiful, isn't it?
Sounds a little bit better...plus fast double-bass...YEEEEEAH
the weird voice is probably due t olars demanding they remove all bass from the album.
2:02 is the definition of perfection!!
That palm muting.....
Orion on Death Magnetic
RetroLightMan brickwalled.
Orion on RTL
Man.... Idk. To me, Orion Is almost sacred. It would be like doing Beethoven in the style of Irish Folk music.
Suicide And Redemption?
How about if Mechanix was on Kill em All??? 😂😂😂
As funny as it seems, I think that’d be badass af. James’ voice on the demos of Mechanix/mechanics was...special, and Dave’s nasally voice is unique and works for most of Deth but doesn’t do the power of the riffs of the song justice imo.

My all-time favorite Metallica song, Sir, this is a Masterpiece!
Ajfa is the hardest musical thrash album in history and I listen to alot of thrash/death, death metal etcetera, it's untouched unrivaled
the intro gives me a feeling i can't explain
This was fire and nothing else can describe it.
Oh, God, yes. It's the 'my two cents' guy. Can't wait to read your review.
@@PersephonevanderWaard this gonna be fun
Dont you mean..."Nothing else Matters"?

@@Hunt4YoshiCHECK YOUR EARS DUDE!!
4:37-raka taka raka taka raka taka raka taka.... ideally, the rhythm guitar part has become more powerful and brutal)))
Dude,you’re unbelievable.
Couldn't decide if I wanted to listen to Justice or Master of Puppets after this. Very well done.
I've realised that i don't really think about the bass too much when listening to the original... but you really notice when it's missing

That extended, harmonized solo then double bass and chugging riff in the middle, NUTTT
That Harvester of Sorrow riff in the chorus! 😍 sounds so good! Keep rocking!
Excellent!
Still waiting for "If Dyers Eve was on St. Anger".
well dyers eve is like unleash and tell feel about parents.. so it have anger fuel in it.. it could be perfect
4:34! what a heavy transition!
I expected this to just be the original song but with the justice tone, but man you really went above and beyond! Absolutely incredible.
The beginning of the second solo is fucking amazing mate good job
WOW. Justice is my favorite album of all time...and this was simply great! My son just showed me this and the Sandman cover. That chord arrangement you added in Sandman gave me goosebumps! Wow...damn. Thanx for taking the time to make these. 👍

Crazy awesome 👏🏼
This is absolutely amazing, keep it up. What a find mate a night to hear Metallica songs rebranded from different album sounds, it’s really incredible
Forgive me if I am repeating myself, but I haven't read all the comments yet. This one has very serious ONE vibes
My thoughts exactly. With AJFA tone it becomes One
Well begun, and well done indeed! People, pay attention, here is a master at his craft!
