I don't care what anyone says, Outlaw Torn and Fixxxer are incredible songs

Bleeding Me, Mama Said, & The Outlaw Torn - the real winners from Load.

Have you done King Nothing? Being an old school Metalicca fan it did take time but now I rate this as Classic.

I totally agree with you Rich, I felt the same way about Metallica back in those days, could not have said it better. It took me some time before I could appreciate the load album.

Metallica progressed as I grew older. I can't handle speed thrash metal as I use to when I was younger. Metallica progressed as I progressed. That's what makes them so dam great! And that bluesiness with "Load". C'mon, pure fire!🔥🔥🔥

I always thought it was a solid song. I love Metallica. I've seen them a few times and they Never disappoint. Rich you are a True fan brother. Much respect.

I've been a Metallica fan since 1985, I was 15 y old. In a radio show inmy city Medellín-Colombia they played two songs from a new band called Metallica, the songs was Motorbreath and The four horsemen... My mind literally were blown away! I grew up as a thrash Metallica boy, but I love Load since the very first note to the end, and Re-Load too. Lulu is a fucking trash agree. I've really loved any Metallica album. Greetings from Medellín-Colombia.

The Black album, Load & Reload albums are great. My youngest son turned me on the them!

I always loved Load and Reload. I could never understand why people hated them. 2x4, The House That Jack Built, Until It Sleeps, Outlaw Torn, The Unforgiven II, etc...

Cool reaction guys,i enjoyed the vid thank you so much & keep up the good work, I enjoy the info you read out about the band and the track at the end of the video, please keep doing this as it gave me some info that i didn't know before.🎧👍

Hi, im from Poland. My dad is from 1971 too, and we love Metallica Too. Have a nice day, what a great video :))

Thanks for this song. Underrated! Nicely played, great production, precise vocals, a complete track.

Been waitin' for this reaction since I subbed! Best song on Load by a mile!

This song so eloquent of an internal struggle..... So many versions of this song, mixing styles too. "Techno/Trance" etc....

My favorite song off of the album.

Definitely one of Tallica's more deeper ones!

I love this song, and this channel :)

Want that shirt Rich... I found you guys a few weeks ago and am in love with both of you. Great stuff I'm a sub 4 life.

Thank you for all the explanation. Surprisingly listening to this Song on MTV back in 1996 totally caught me and was the start for me to became a fan and listen to the former great albums Master of Puppets, Kill 'em all, Ride the Lightning... This Song is still my favourite to this day. Especially the video including and religious symbolism.

I love this song

Hello. Just wanted to say i really enjoy your videos. Ive found you guys yesterday, and i binge watched alot of the bands i love. Im about same age as Rick i think..i grew up with Metallica, Maiden , Helloween, judas priest, Megadeth, Skid Row+++++. You seems like a great couple. Keep ur videos coming. Best regards from Norway.

One of my absolute favourites by Metallica. Brilliant lyrics. Great music.

I wish you nice greetings from Germany and keep up the good work

You guys rock !!!

Shine on guys !!!

Epic song. I like the live Version of cunning Stunts concert.

amazing song, so powerful, brings me back to '90....compact discs times...

HELL YES!!! the Load albums get so much hate!!! I love them Unforgiven 2 is my fav of the Unforgivens. so powerful when that chorus hits

after i saw this i went and listened to lulu and after i just listened to the first two songs and loved it, so listen kel with headphones.💚

One of my favorite songs by Metallica! I also like "King Nothing" alot too.

Metallica - My Friend Of Misery

Nice reaction Kel n Rich. There are some very good songs on load & reload. Took me a while as was a massive departure from the earlier stuff. Have never heard lulu. I’m hearing the call of Ktulu, not lulu 🤘

Not sure how accurate this is, but I remember reading that this song is about James' father getting cancer (he also lost his mother to cancer at a young age). The lyrics are directed towards cancer itself: "I'll tear me open, make you gone. No longer will you hurt anyone"

I love this one on s&m and outlaw torn also on s&m love the depth of the orchestra

I can still remember stomping this album into pieces then setting it on fire.

One of my favs brah

masterpiece

Through the never, not into the never! Cool reaction btw 👍

My favorite Metallica song is 'Bleeding Me'

Turn The Page! 🙏

I forgot how good this song is i was like that when load came out i hated it but now i love it

I happen to love Load and Reload and SM albums. This Metallica era was my favorite. I know I'm in the minority on this, but these songs are so expressive and progressive and heavy. On that note, Kel might like a Metallica song from SM album.

A great hard rock/metal song! 😁

Love the lyrics, but gotta give props to Jason for playing that amazing fretless bassline on this song. As much as I love Outlaw Torn from this era, if you decide to do it, I'd check the S&M live version - I actually like it better than the studio version.

Load is one of my favorite Metallica albums, and the song Bleeding Me is probably my favorite off the album.

Anyone ever read James Hetfields recent comments on load and reload?

I'm a 90's kid, I started in 1996 with Load album so I can relate very well with this era.. back in the day, Load rocked in all radios, Metallica were back with nem style and music and older fans did't like it.. but since I was starting I view this era with other eyes. Great song, very underated.

Love the Priest shirt Rich

Hi. I've been watching your videos and seen we love alot of the same music. I was wondering if you have done a video or planned to for Now that we're dead by metallica?

Hero of the Day! S&M version! I think Kel will love it

Mornin🤟🏻🇨🇦

Bleeding Me is fantastic.

I love this song so much, and although the music is great, the lyrics really is where it became important for me. This song helped me through an abusive childhood and through PTSD from my work as a crime scene investigator. It really connected to me. I love Load and Reload, despite what a lot of people say about them. There are some amazing songs from those albums, I can't wait for you to get into them more!

This is the song that got me into Metallica

I love everything Metallica did in the 90s

I instantly liked the Load and Re-Load albums. Metallica (like many metal bands at the time) mostly did social commentary (war, society/culture, religion, politics), but really only started doing the introspective thing on a few tunes on the Black Album. Most artists start out (and some only do) the deeply personal feeling stuff (Alice and Chains for example, not "metal" but I digress). It was a change and the good songs from these albums were GREAT! . . . The "effect" you might be referring to here (at the beginning of the song) is simply a fretless bass with flatwound strings.

Load and ReLoad is auch underrated. I love you rich.you think like I tied over this

#I read where the haircuts were a show of unity when James lost a lot of his hair in the fire. ? Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Some seriously good headbanging from Kel there! 😁 Had that long sexy fringe flying everywhere! 😁 Thought she was going to swallow it at one point! 😁 The fringe that is! 😁

I still don't love this era of Metallica, but I appreciate it. Thankfully I have pretty diverse taste in music, so I was kicking it to Tool, NIN, Alice in Chains, and Megadeth during this era of Metallica. So I was not at all starved for new hard music.

I think it's so silly how a lot of Metallica fans think a group of men can and should never change or grow and mature or expand. If you think the Black album was when they "sold out" then you should listen to #HookerWithaPenis from #Tool I'm not sure why that's the title other than being funny, but its not about a literall hooker. Anyway, Metallica is a band that has created some of the best and most loved Rock and Metal music ever. They earned and deserve every bit of love they've received from fans. They did not deserve all the backlash and criticism from those same "fans". Even though those fans have the right to like what they want and the right to voice their opinions abt what-the-fuck ever, doesn't mean those opinions and criticisms are warranted or even valid because this band 'rocked out with their cocks out' in a way few other bands did or were capable of doing so they reserve the right to record what-the-fuck-ever they want and/or needed to. If the Black album to the present isn't your cup of tea then take your petty, narrow-viewed, musically stunted 17 year old minded ass and go listen to Slayer or Anthrax and remain in the late 80s/early 90s era of Metal (not YOU specifically Kel and Rich, but you the fans in general). It was an awesome era and I revisit it often, but c'mon man! No musical genius like the guys in Metallica are going to limit themselves and their god-given talents to a single era and style. If they do that then their staying power and continued relevance would not exist. They'd be doing what bands like Slayer and Anthrax are doing. Tour their greatest hit(s) to death and into the ground until now...a 'farewell' tour. Those two bands are fortunate that Pantera couldn't keep together or the "Big Four" tour would have seen Slayer and Anthrax dukin' it out for that 4th spot cuz Pantera was big and bad enough to be #3 and #4. Point is that the attitude abt our favorite Metal bands that Rich was describing is rediculous. They aren't and never were 'our' Metallica. The music they made, made us fans of Metallica. They became the best because their music made it so. The fans did not create them and have no right to dictate what they should or shouldn't be doing. They veered off the musical path they were on for a few albums, not because they were out of ideas or too old, but because they wanted to. To prove their genius they diversified then came right back at us heavy and hard with #DeathMagnetic Which btw you haven't touched on. Please review #Cyanide from #DeathMagnetic ASAP. Even better, do a full album reaction. Thank you! Sorry for such a lengthy commentary, but this topic has bothered me for a long time and I had a lot to say abt it. Thanks for all you're doing for Rock and Metal! Those genres owe channels like yours much gratitude. How can I donate to your cause? I don't see you on Patreon.

Metallica/ BLEEDING ME 👍 love you guy's.

Yes, "Lulu" is not a good album for Metallica standards. But it's not a Metallica album. It's a Lou Reed album with Metallica as his back up band. He wrote all the music, all the lyrics, made all the arrangements. They just added a few suggestions here and there. And the album is just called "Lulu", indeed the whole project is just "Lulu". They did a couple of gigs with him. I haven't seen the booklet, but I think the name Metallica is not even mentioned, it's probably just their names. So, no offence, but just kick it out of your Metallica discography. For me it's just "Death Magnetic" and then "Hardwired...". Keep on rockin'... ;-)

Until It Sleeps was released in '96.

METALLICA - LOW MAN'S LYRIC It's basically a better version of Nothing Else Matters!

I AM THE TABLE!!! on a serious note, I remember being very disappointed when st anger came out, but it grew on me after a while. "the unnamed feeling" became one of my favorite songs of all time.

I really like the channel and keep up the good work and I was wondering if you guys will ever react to bands like Ratt and Ozzy Osbourne and other glam metal bands from the 80’s and I think it would be an interesting reaction to see

Only Lou Reed I like is the live album 'Rock And Roll Animal' with Dick Wagner on guitar.

Can you please review some Godsmack!!! I love them and barely see any reactions so hopefully y’all two can.

Hetfield-Ulrich are the new Lennon-mcCartney. Their songwriting skill is just beyond words. They write what they want, they play what they want. That's being true to themselves. They live up to their own words: honesty is their only excuse.

You're right about the Load and Reload era producing not many but some good songs. I differ, however that this was one of the good ones.

If you take load and reload and put all the good songs together you would get one side of a cassette....this is one of the good ones mamma said if my favorite from these albums......ever since Clif died Metallica has not been the same decent music but for me I really do not feel the emotional connection I did with cliff playing....keep up the good work and remember one fist in the air one foot in the gutter

I had been a hardcore Metallica fan since Ride the Lightning came out. Those first albums Kill Em All, garage days re-revisited, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets. And justice for all. I can honestly say every one of those albums in my opinion are masterpieces in their own right. There isn't a bad song on ANY of them. The Black Album came out, I was very skeptical at first. I listened to it and discovetex there isn't a bad song on that album either.. Then they cut their hair, and released Load... My beloved Metallica turned into Alternica.. I can honestly say that exception of repurchasing full albums on new formats, I have never owned and have no desire 2 ever own any studio album recorded after the black album. We felt betrayed Course that is not including any live performances such as live shit binge & Purge and I actually enjoyed album where they merged their music with classical was very good As Well. Just seems like when Cliff passed away, they lost their direction and heart. Even the new music is missing the drive that they had. Metallica died shortly after Cliff Burton.

Metallica was awesome back then their songs were so good.

More Load/Reload please!!!!!

Rich... did you missed Death Magnetic intentionally in your review? I think is a great album, maybe you can try "The day that never comes" and "All nightmare long"

Love the shirts Dream Theater & Priest 🤘🏼

Fuel and Refuel were actually pretty dope

2 really good songs lyrically. Motley Crue your all I need/ slaughter fly to the angels id love to see you do those

#Moonspell Domina

Metallica changes their way of music a lot of times for the good. The taste of music also changes for most of the people. And they are stil the top metal band because of that. Accepting the style of music is for the die hard fans difficult but you see that in tim they are alright with it. Load, Reload and Garage inc. are totally different from the other albums but still have good songs on it. Did you try something from their latest album 72 Seasons like Lux Æterna.

Hero of The Day is killer.

Metallica moth into flame next please. Heavy song but with fantastic melody throughout. Great video too!

This was Metallica's attempt to redefine themselves for the era of Alternative music. I like to call this era of Metallica.. Alternica. Still enjoy the Load/Reload albums.. do not get me wrong.. I just prefer the thrashier sound of the albums prior to Load. Peace

Fight Fire With Fire

I think the whole album it’s really Good, different though, I really like the load album alot

React to Anathema:Lost control ¡nice t shirt!Greetings from Argentina

Even on Alice in Chains Unplugged album, the Bass Player wrote on his Bas "Friends don't give friends haircuts" lol

Wow Rich, open up a can of worms why dont ya. I'm one of the fans that felt like Justice was the beginning of the end. It was apparent they were shifting. Then Lars crying about copyright infringement with Napster when they used to encourage fans to dub their tapes and give em to friends. Then the hair cutting. But by this time, it was clear they weren't Metallica anymore. Theres maybe 5 or 6 songs after Justice that I like, this being one. Good vid guys. Keep it up.

Oh man. Rich speaks for us. But Metallica is a band that they are comfortable and rich and tired.... And is my favorite Band.... Brazil loves you

You people know, especially the guy (apologizes to the lady) know your stuff when you talk about the music and videos... that’s why I watch your reactions to metal and similar genres...

Not big about the Load period but Bad Seed is gold. Please react

react to turn the page by metallica. would love to see what she thinks about it

*MetallicA : "Hero Of The Day"*

You should do Metallica’s cover of Turn the Page

I have been wondering what her reaction would be to some "S&M".
