growing up is recognizing that jason actually was an outstanding bassist and the kind of sound metallica needed to be heavier

Bass is thicc af.

@@casualman6716 Jason's bass got me actin up 👌

I heard that growl in the intro then decided to watch the whole video! 🤘🤘🤘🤘

POS libtards!!!

lol, I fucking love this comment! 😆🤘

Yes

thankyou for leaving your mark jason

Agreed. He's my favorite.

He saved Metallica...He Is Worthyyyy...

As much as I love Metallica you are right....... those were the days\m/

i think they still got it! even today!

When did Kirk burn out?

@@FEPSO they do but it’s just not the same, getting old sucks but i’m glad they are still here

@@FEPSO around the reload/st.anger days

AHAHAHHAH huguita colombian kirk lo entendemos los sudamericanos hahhahahaha te pasaste

kirk's mic is not being picked up though

I think Kirk just mouths his parts most of the time hahaha

It mixes well though

one comment that really stuck out to me was “if you ever feel useless, just remember that kirk sang backup vocals too”

Kirk is such a pussy, dunno why he even bothers mumbling back ups. Jason slaughtered him.

blackdragons95 totally understand monster effort

No one forced them to tour that much. They could take a break for a few months just to rest and heal James chords but nooo its better to tour untill ur dead

@@dalax8949 its the lifestyle man

Rhytm4All it’s just what you do when you have that massive of an album, you promote the hell out of it by touring. Should they have toured so long? No, but they also should have just stuck to thrash metal. Point being, we can’t change the past.

@@deadinsidemcgee411 They shouldn't have, I love Load, Reload, and St. Anger. I feel like exploring new music genres was important for a band like Metallica.

After Cliff, shit went weird,lame.

​@@mcharrison23 **And Justice For All would like to know your location**

@@bongjovi4928way to shit on Cliff’s legacy.

But he's no Cliff Burton, that's the problem. When Cliff died, so did Metallica IMHO.

@@marinecorps9153 then why are you watching this? you are so boring with "metallica died when cliff died" nobody cares.. they are still big, 40 years after, get over it for the love of god and dead men cliff

@@marinecorps9153 and yes, he is no cliff, and james is no cliff, and i am not lars, and you are not madonna.. whats your point???

@@4md17 You're missing the point. The SOUL of Metallica was not James or Lars or Kirk. It was Cliff. And when Cliff died, so did the heart and soul of Metallica. Look at the "so called music" they have put out since Cliff died. It's not the same band anymore to me. That's my opinion, you don't have to like it, but I believe my analysis is spot on.

@@marinecorps9153 and i respect that, but i disagree and so does milions of people who are still listening metallica. it is not spot on just because is your opinion. did they promise you to do thrash for the rest of their life?! cliff means nothing to me, except i like his music.

Jason is amazing !

actually its not jason himself its a jason cyborg look alike 6:29

Deadpool Jason always looked evil back then!

DoomiePookie , and someone should punch you in the sac

Check out creeping death in Mexico city 1993. Back up vocals are kickass

almost 92 - 93 records was directly recorded form mix console

Sounds better like that

The Crazy Mofos pp

Spencer D I prefer it cause at times the crowd overpowers the band

I agree. But you can actually HEAR the playing. Very interesting. Changes the "feel" of things...but I always find crowds to be VERY distracting and ambient sound to be to "airy". I guess it depends on what kind of energy you want. Cool experiment. 😉

It's crazy because when he wasn't on stage he seemed like the chillest dude ever. He'd be calm and laughing but on stage he went through a transformation into monster Jason lol

Evilness and aggression.... 🙄 Is that all, what Metal is about today? Metal was so much more back then.

And the first member to cut their hair off.. lol

@@jurgenv.6030 Slayer, Sepultura, Pantera, etc...

@@jurgenv.6030 It seems metal is more than that now than back then actually. 😄 Although evilness and aggression isn't necessarily bad in metal.

Rob is a much better fit, Rob can actually keep up with the other guys.

@@TrentonTrent gtfo LMAO! Go watch Jason perform Phantom Lord live with Megadeth. Rob is a great musician but Jason is a Rock Star.

@@arcadeslum5882 "It hasn't been played like that since Cliff" "He plays that fast with just his fingers" "He makes us sound better" ...THese are all quotes form the guys in Metallica..No offense but I hold onto what they say and their opinion on this topic more so than a Jason fanboy like yourself. Jason was a fill in until they found the right guy. "I don't think you should settle this time"

@@TrentonTrent I'm not a Jason fan boy, I am a musician of over 25 years. Your opinion is ignorant, short sighted and not on topic.

@@arcadeslum5882 Well if you are a true musician you would be able to tell that Rob is a much better bassist than Jason.. There is no competition! That is like saying Dave Groul plays guitar better than Joe Satriani. You see how dumb that sounds?

😂😂😂😂😂👌🤘

Lmao 🤣 true

Hahaha.

Jajajajajjaa

True

Everton Oliveira Jesus and Satan In the same band

No.. JesUMs plays the drUMs

hope that band gonna be created

@@Mitsurugi-Ryu Well, they DO share some titles, like Morningstar.

Sir, you win.

see the singer of slayer playing rainning blood live, bloody feet, bloody Bass, bloody voice and bloody guitar.

+black_opREADYf1 ps3 more easy to playing a bass than a guitar..like this song...needs a lot of contentration the picking when james starts sing...very difficult...respect for james!!:)

+Frikker Dorián also the drums have a lot of diferent compositions that you have to keep in mind for the entire song

James is the best for that job !!!

araya actualy play just the E string empty or an E minor chord 90% of the time

more like - when you can hear Lars bass drum .... LOL

Lars still had around mid 2000's

@@thedancingguy828 mmm...that's when his hair started falling of his head

Lars destroyed his hair with all that bleach trying hard to look like slim shady.....

He still has hair but he had/has a receding hairline

Cliff era.

Max Cavalera is a close second.

+conantroutman76 fuck off his he

Maybe Max was second in the past. Listen to Max Cavalera playing guitar nowadays man :)

the only downpicking in this song is the opening and the riff during the solo

Malcolm Young is #1

hey mike

I miss him so much

yes at least we can hear his bass here

Jason was too much for Metallica

So is your mother

Same

it's their magnum opus, as far as I'm concerned. Really, it's one of the best songs ever written, regardless of genre.

Best by far.

Same. Absolute masterpiece

Absolutely. From start to finish, it continually punches you in the face on all sonic fronts

jason is fucking fierce man

sounds like a dying cow to me...

+raysdga no one really thinks twice about what you just said. unless they're thinking... what the f*** is he talkin about

I didn't say it sounded bad. Just sounds like a dying cow...

OK ... then that makes a little more sense. well done

Jason was always the best live! No offense to Rob or Kirk but Jason was the man live (saw him three times)...none of the others could match his raw intensity..he gave it all, every damn show...

he's trying way to hard...

RABIN MIGUEL ; )

Back to...when Lars was getting a good sound out of his drum kit and Metallica were angry & hungry...and they had Jason😊

I wish I could’ve seen Jason play with Metallica live :(

They have a technique that doesn’t hurt their vocal chords, it’s weird but true. Look up the biology of metal screaming, there’s a great vocal coach who explains it really well, though her name eludes me.

@@deadinsidemcgee411 I know, is just that some people (oliver, worsnop and so on) just don't take care of themselves, cause phil bozeman is still strong for example.

TheUtgardian Channel oh dear god yes, so many of these first generation DIY metalcore kids used crap techniques and hurt themselves

Listen to slaughter to prevail

@@zedpwner I do lol, all these new deathcore banda like Lorna, infant annihilatior, and so on are to new to know if they are doing it right, but I think they are.

Newsted was my favorite.

Jason gave to James that evil energy on stage that was necessary to play the songs.

siccore actually the one he used for justice was a grey tama drumset. The one he uses here is a tama artstar II

Spoodermen Produktionz na it was a tama granstar to

Logan Wilson BMX granstar with artstar lugs

nycjin816 I'm talking about the damage justice kit

Logan Wilson BMX right, the grayish kit. this one the white with black hardware is strictly black album

@Jesse Pinkman 2 years actually but i get the point

@Jesse Pinkman they downtuned in 1995, before Load (they have played Devil's Dance and 2×4 but still) you coul search for Donington 95' or London 95'

@Jesse Pinkman summer shit in 1994, i don't think they downtuned for that tour, and that's after the Black Album tour

Jesse Pinkman kzfaq.info/get/bejne/abWcdZl5rpOqdoE.html you can hear a noticeable difference between 94-95 but not 93-94

I think this is after he blew out I think it was his vocal cords doing so what he's voice was never the same after that what a bummer

Well Lars is the definitely the weak link in the band. Can you imagine what they would have been like with an actual drummer?

@@ironmainiac1783 I always wondered what Metallica would have sounded like if they also stole Tom Hunting from Exodus along with Kirk.

I recently saw a video where some dude plays bass along with that entire album in one sitting, whole thing every song back to back and nailed it flawlessly. I think it was called And Justice For All with Bass.

They didn't.

@@ironmainiac1783 Lars is the band. Without him they would have wound up working at gas stations.

bangamullet me two bud

Hell yes! U feel the music and energy more.....

Same here bro!! 👍🤘

Bangamullet we all do.

87-89 is their peak live

@@tillman40 Nah, they were a powerhouse on the Black Album tour.

Crazy take. Hetfield sounds worse than when he was in his fetus years

Gelato556 I agree. Jason's bass sounds phenomenal here! Overall the mix is really, really good! But, I especially love that bass. I have always liked a heavy bass sound. Whether it be Sabbath, Maiden etc. To me the bass is there for a reason. It doesn't have to be just a backing instrument.

Oh yeah. All the old school and retro thrash metal bands have killer bass tone. All that mid scoop is what I dig, yo!

That tone is definite eargasm

There is so much negativity in the comments typically, this was a nice refreshing laugh

And enough energy to bring 'em down a second time.

Yeah and strong enough so that jet fuel can't melt them

austin thompson James sucks compared to his older self, lol.

Depends on what "older self" you're talking about. If you're talking about 92 and before, obviously James suck compared to that. If you're talking about right before 2000, James today is way better. James has gone through so many vocal transitions... Lol sadsadsa asadasd​

austin thompson James hetfield in 1998 1999 and 2000 sounded way better live than he has in 2002-2015, are you seriously even trying to debate this?

Have you heard "The Thing That Should Not Be" played live from mid 2013? sadsadsa asadasd​

austin thompson Perhaps, but doesn't matter, I've heard enough of them to know better than most youtubers.

Jason is far better than rob

Jason has killer backing vocals! But Rob has suberb bass skills. Not better or worse then jason. Two apex predators in one band just does not work!

@@jarrodyoung9555 I'm with you.

@@jarrodyoung9555 not skill wise but for energy and a player you would want overall yea, jason is better

Rob is definitely talented

yes....most under rated in m.o.: disposable, messiah, lightning

This is the only time I won’t rip on “underrated” guy because it’s actually true here. Lol

Ryan Federico jajajaja

that is perfect

noob Would say John Cena on bass.

noob jajajajajajajaajajja

Good word my friend. Competent describes his overall ability to do what he did/does, yet it underlines the esoteric skill of what it takes to do what he clearly enjoys.

😂

Not in the live shit binge and purge albums

Yeah keeps tripping me out

i was just wondering the same thing. sounds so bizarre without it

Wow, i read that comment just at that part of the song.

And after the guitar solo they immediately started the 'why! Am I dying!' instead of just the riff breaking back in which is so much more intense.

Also, the interlude before Battery's solo.

Lars give clue with the kicks just half of a second before hit the snare.

@@sinanbeyreli7538 good ear; I was gonna say that too.

8:06 Is funny..he strums it super casual..lol

Its called timing.....

@@TOMVUTHEPIMP No, it's called a cue. As all others replied.

Gabriel Hernandez You are right. That's one thing that has always bothered me about Metallica. They have had some great Bassists. But in their live mix and even some studio, you cant hear the bass at times hardly at all. I guess James is well known for not liking to much of a deep mix. Its a shame because of the talented Bass players they have had. In my opinion, the mix here is the way they should always sound, because the bass sounds phenomenal here. Take care and peace.

+Chris J The thing is when you have as much bottom end on the guitars as they usually do, they eat up the frequencies where a bass guitar would usually go. So the bass frequencies are coming out of the guitar 4x12 and the bassist winds up just filling a corner of the stage so it will look like a complete band.

+Chris J YEAP JUST LIKE SLAYERS MUSIC CANT HEAR THE BASS....

Didn't they treat Jason badly and turn down his bass in the mixing of various albums because they were still grieving for Cliff?

Interesting, thanks

The thing is that he sounds pretty good nowadays. Much better than he did between 1996-2010 :) Ofc nothing beats the way he sounded between 86-93 but u have to enjoy the little things :)

Yeah I miss the young James screech...

He blew it out before the black album that's why he's sounds different then on and justice plus alot of touring doesn't help he still had a lot of rasp mixed with singing after and justice

He's studied vocal technique since and has grown from a brilliantly talented teenage screamer into an adult male vocalist whose vocal cords can survive the brutal gig of fronting Metallica! His longevity is a thing of beauty.

He did some great backing vocals on the black album!

They used that a lot during Black Album, Load/Reload era and covers from Garage Inc.

Same here. Was on both concerts ('91 and '93). Great moments in the old St.Jakob ;-)

I *love* this comparison, it's so damn true lol

Damn right!!!!

Jesus Christ - Drums

And Thrash God on Guitar/Vocals

Marlon Bruno yessss

Art Vandelay more like "downsyndrome looking spastic trying too look and sound tough on the mic - Jason Newstead

Agreed, 100%

Even better with Cliff. Check out their 1985 performance.

Yeah it's awesome too. Jason just has a passion for Metallica's music and it's so evident.

good times man...

Wish he never left

Yeah, Kirk came in a little late with the chords it looks and sounds like was trying to get them all in sync

Yup it's funny to watch lol

Actually, Kirk was doing backup vocals for Jason; so there was no competition.

I dont hear his half assed vocals at all its a good thing he simgs like beaker from the muppets just meep meep meeep yes new retake kirt hemmet sing along to master of Muppets
