Except that he plays better than the two of them. Together.

CrimsonAnihilator nah

@CoolRunner didn't know day till now!

@CoolRunner wait i thought i loved kill em all and whiplash is his fav song

@John Overthinker Ironic. Kurt loved Ride the Lightning and Kill em All; Metallica and thrash metal was a clear influence on his writing for Bleach, which could easily be seen as a metal album if it had a cleaner production. Kurt had a natural ear for music by diversifying what he listened to, allowing him to create songs that could naturally incorporate different aspects of music from different genres that he thought worked. Metallica wasn't contemporary, they didn't focus on their looks, and their music had a lot of meaning and intensity behind it, exactly the kind of attitude Kurt would get behind. If you don't believe me, there's plenty of Metallica interviews where they talk about meeting Kurt how they were surprised that he liked their music. Kurt also went to a Metallica show in 1992 and got the band to play Whiplash, which there is video of.

Treeclimbyou no digas mamadas!

Its Richie Faulkner from JUDAS PRIEST!? Call yourself a metal fan

Matty Deth sarcasm dude wtf is wrong with you?

Koushik Ramakrishnan prefect for ozzy still deserves to be in Judas Priest

Metallica is a pop band.

Ritchie Faulkner former lead guitarist of judas priest

JP picked him up? Can you explain?

@@lantusinfluencer Yeah, he became Judas Priest's guitar player some time ago

Oh what! That’s crazy! Thanks for the info dude

​@@waylong25wow.... ❤

@@mr.z6776 nope

@@mr.z6776 Incorrect bobo, Dave wrote one of the riffs.

@@mr.z6776 dude wtffffff

Mr. Z He has writing credits because he wrote the Spider Chord Riff and the Verse Riff. Kirk wrote the solo, but Metallica doesn’t give writing credit for solos.

Mr. Z Dave had nothing to do with this solo, absolutely nothing and it’s really funny that people don’t give Kirk the credit when it’s deserved lmao

Wow Indeed this solo rocks

One of Kirk's best.

':l

His technique doesn't suck, it's different styles of guitar playing, is he better technically, no, but nothing about his guitar playing sucks.

To be honest, since Kirk wrote those sollos for the first 5 albums, he also writes better music. Haha, sure Yngmwidmmwofw (or however it's spelled) is a god in playing, but what he wrote is overrated.

He is not the most technically proficient guitarist around, not even by 80s standards. But, he made solos that fitted perfectly to Metallicas style! Don't get me wrong, Kirks solos are not beginner stuff at all!!

I like Paul Gilbert , his technique is amazing better than Kirk's but Kirk wrote great solos for the Metallica's songs. Although when im studying guitar im trying to figure out Paul's techniques.

@@ErlendBuflod I was able to play some of his solos in my first year of playing, a lot of people do, Metallica solos aren't that hard at all.

@@bremtremont2027 Sick. Here's your report.

@@miltiadiskoutsokeras9189 He's into older men, I know it's something you probably don't wanna hear.

@@bremtremont2027 you are publicly stating stuff for private life with no evidence. I have enough evidence about this guy's guitar skills to admire him. Go away dude we do not need people like you. Report again...

@@miltiadiskoutsokeras9189 LMAO! You're sensitive as hell. What the fuck are you even reporting? Stupid fuckin' commie. *You're* the kind we really don't need around anywhere. Pathetic people like you feel so almighty just because you can hit a "report" button. That's all the "power" you'll ever have, so get used to it, cupcake.

Kurt Hammett

I thought the exact same thing xD

Eldon B He's just as good as he ever was, dude - he's just altered his style over the years. And he improvises a lot live - that's what certain people ( mainly ignorant trolls and haters ) don't realize.

Dmitry Owens It would be okay if the improvisations actually sounded good

IRawr They do. You're just a clueless fool.

Dmitry Owens "legendary metal guitarist" ok. legendary and kirk don't combine :v. If you want to know true legendary guitarist, there's Joe Satriani, Marty Friedman, Petrucci, Hendrix, Beck, Clapton, Page, Santana, Les Paul B.B King, YNGWIE.. Not some hotshot thrash rebel mainstream mainstream playing generic crap. Oh wait, you're a metallica FANBOY, you most likely don't know half of these guitarist x)

Juan Correa Yngwie? LMFAO! He couldn't write a good song or a melodic memorable guitar lead that fits a song to save his life. Every one of his solos sounds exactly the same - mindless shredding of scales and arpeggios in 32nd notes with no regard for the song structure or feel. And Petrucci and Friedman have absolutely no soul in their playing - more mindless overly-technical shredding. Also, I've been a Rock and Metal fan since 1980, a pro gigging guitarist for over 25 years, and a guitar and bass instructor for 15 years - I've heard every Rock and Metal guitarist who's worth hearing. Jimi and Carlos are my two favorite guitarists of all time, and they're also two of Kirk's favorites as well. Some of my other favorites/ influences are Michael Schenker ( who's also a huge influence on Kirk ) Randy Rhoads, Eddie Van Halen, Brian May, David Gilmour, Uli Roth, Fast Eddie Clark, Angus Young and Gary Moore.

Lol

Can’t show penetration 😂

Kenny Ken That's a load of bullshit - Hammett is a pioneer of his own style. Richie is a great player, but he's not an innovator or a legend like Kirk is - he replaced someone who is.

+Kenny Ken Kirk knows what he's doing, he's just getting old and doesn't practise as much anymore wich is really sad :/

+Dmitry Owens Umm, Hammett replaced a legend. Irony (in high pitched voice).

Hammett has fallen as a Guitarist since a long time. He used to be on the top and he was a beast and had written some of the most iconic solos. He just got old just like the rest of the band and in couple of years they would just call it quits.

Kenny Ken Kirk Hammett is actually still a good player; he and Rob are the only metallica members (besides Jason) who haven't lost their edge . I was one of those people who used to think he sucked after the black album, but I was wrong when I saw him perform with death angel and exodus. He even plays the first solo on a song off of the latest exodus album "blood in blood out" and it's pretty good

Ellada mono r mouniii 🇬🇷

@@Bobo-zt2ig ε ναι ρε . Kαι για την ακρίβεια Κρήτη .

Well let's see I've been playing for 30 years and I have a good idea of what good playing is, everybody knows that's one of kirks best solos, maybe it's jealousy I'm hearing. U just have to knock people down to make u feel better and u can't give credit when it's due!!!

Kathryn Taylor Do you want a tampon?

+versagomoonslayer That is a long word for Friedman. ;)
