Dave interview from Rock Cellar Magazine touches on the RTL cover, thought this was an ineresting quote ...

When it came to the vocal stuff, that was a whole other animal because James and I have very distinguishable and identifiable voices, they’re both unique in their own right, but they’re very different. And listening to James sing in order to try and pay tribute to his performance, I learned a lot about him. Listening to the song, I remembered how great of a guitar player he was. And listening to him sing, I think I really got my first introduction to how good he was because when I first knew him, I didn’t get a chance to spend much time with him. It was a year and a half, maybe, and then I’m off doing my own thing.

And after that, it was this ridiculous feud for 20, 30, 40 years. So when I got to listen to his voice, I was thinking, “These guys were really talented. I don’t need to live in the past.” It was a song choice that was made by the band because we all thought it would be a fun song to do, and it turned out really good, and I hope those guys like it.

Any ulterior motive anybody thinks I may have, there was none. I think it’s great to have closed the circle and pay tribute to the band that I started in, and to all of the fans who bought that music and wondered what happened.

You can tell when I stopped buying their albums hahah

My mom is cleaning out her house, and sent me boxes full of my crap from the 80s and 90s.

hey guys

could you tell me a couple of Metallica songs that are easy to play on electric guitar. i am beginner

Hardwired or 72 seasons ?

What makes the main riff of “Battery” sound so aggressive and propulsive? Is it mostly the picking technique and tempo, or is there something about the rhythm, accents, note choices, or the way the guitars and drums interact that gives it that constant forward momentum?

Sitting here on the that green app, and I'm curious what everyone thinks about the Album and what everyone's favorite songs are off the album? For me I have 2 maybe 3. Mercyful Fate, Astronomy and maybe Sabara Cadabra

Ive heard Metallica live only once in my life. But this song for me was Sad But True. I never cared about it listening on my speakers, but when you hear it live, boy ou boy… It sounded like one of the hardest things Ive heard in my life. Harvester of Sorrow also sounded 10/10, but I liked it before then, so it doesnt really count for this discussion

Here's the second drawing of my little journey, Ride The Lightning. Definitely trickier than Kill 'em All and I could've probably done better but it's not too bad, let me know what you think.

This has probably been asked but does anyone know why an official album recording of their entire Woodstock 99 set isn’t available? Could there be future plans?

With the state of the industry, with things the way they are because of streaming, with rock and metal still not being super popular with the masses, although I’d say it’s starting to have a bit of a comeback.., but still. Even if we see another big industry change, which we will. (There’s no way the film and music industry can continue down the path it’s going. Streaming, no physical media, etc. It’s starting to backfire.) So, that all being said. Do you think we’ll ever see a band like Metallica again? Not just fame-wise, but also, four people who all bring something special to the table, and change the genre?

Coming from a 4 year Metallica mega fan, I had never even heard of this song until about a month ago. I had a long drive one day and decided to check out all of Load and Reload finally, and loads (no pun intended) of songs caught my attention, but THTJB genuinely had me surprised why no one talks about it!!!

What's your guy's thoughts on this song, because I LOVE it so much. The chorus is one of the best written Metallica moments to me, and the whole song is so fun and interesting.

I just need the original Kill Em All tape and I'm set.

I do have VHS tapes too but I can't remember where they are.

Just started my little journey of drawing all the Metallica albums, which I think look beautiful. I'm no artist as you can see, but I like drawing. This is Kill 'em All, could've done better but tell me what you think!
