Tom's actual reaction: UGH!

Funny how many self-proclaimed metalheads in the comments have never heard of Celtic Frost 🤦🏻‍♀️

Holy shit! I'm genuinely surprised with the amount of people in the comments that never heard of Celtic Frost.

So many people don't know Celtic Frost, they were called Hellhammer back in 1982 and had a more extreme sound than Venom and Metallica at the time, they're also responsible for being a huge influence for death metal and black metal. Celtic Frost later changed its name to Triptykon, its really astonishing to see how many people don't know Celtic Frost but listen to extreme metal.

Those Kirk and Rob doodles can be pretty cringeworthy sometimes.

All drama aside, "Morbid Tales" is one of the most heaviest pioneering metal albums ever. Check out, "Procreation of the Wicked". But yes, the Metallica cover was horrible, very horrible.

Funny, I got verbal permission from Tom himself to put a Frost cover (The Usurper) on a demo I was doing. He heard and basically said "sure, go for it". Great moment.

Metallica should've covered Cherry Orchards. .

I saw the title and thought how miserable can Thomas be but when he said rob and Kirk did their “cover” I totally understood why.

Anyone disrespecting celtic frost is a poser, and not a metalhead, period. If metallica is the only metal band you're into, you aren't a metalhead, your opinion is irrelevant and objectively false. It really is that simple.

Where’s my daily tortilla?!

Metallica, dont mess with the frost... you could be hurt.

I was fourteen when I saw Celtic Frost. Opening acts were Voi Vod, Saint Vitus and Running Wild. Coincidentally: Metallica was literally playing, a walking distance away, opening for Ozzy the night of Celtic Frost’s show! Some stage hand got on the mic during someones set and said: “This next song is for Metallica playing up the street!” The audience replied with their middle fingers, ‘fuck Metallica,’ and “posers” chants

If it helps, Metallica butchers their OWN tunes these days, in spite of Trujillo's best efforts.

Growing up in the 80's was such a brilliant time to be a metalhead. Celtic Frost were the pioneers of Black and Avant Garde metal. Check out their live 2007 Wacken show. Thats a fu**king band.

I wouldn’t be too mad, Rob and Kirk butcher all the songs they “doodle”!

You know what's not metal? Running a metal gossip channel on KZfaq.

the dude is in his fifties wearing guy liner and a beanie. Im not sure he knows what "humiliating" means.

Wait. WTF Song did they Cover? Don’t think it was mentioned.

Don't mess with Celtic Frost - it's sacred ground

tom has always been sour anyway, most miserable bastard in metal. I love celtic frost but his comments reek of jealousy. It was a little semi rehearsed moment acknowledging an area and scene legend.

Look up Trujello singing When Doves Cry...now that's humiliating.

As a vegetarian, i say who gives a shit if somebody goes hunting, I respect that a hell of a lot more than factory farming

Well said Tom!

Celtic Frost no longer exist mate. Tom G Warrior is the lead singer in Triptykon, formally of Celtic Frost.

Atleast before they played it they said they loved frost and Called it real metal

From what I've seen, Kirk and Robert's covers are meant to have the same tone as light hearted banter. Not actually Metallica trying to make metal history with a ground breaking cover that the audience is captivated and blown away by. 🤷‍♂️ Plus if I were to look at the bright side, they may have introduced the song to a large number of people in the audience who may have gone home and said "Who was that band? Celtic Frost? I should check them out." Plus it may have been featured on KZfaq, etc.

If he care's that much about Celtic Frost, why he left the band in the first place? (can't trash on Metallica since he also sold out with the Glam Metal in Cold Lake and the Nu Metal in the Proyotype Ep)

Sepulturas cover of procreation of the wicked is one of the Heaviest/most awesome metal songs of all time 😎

Not like they recorded it, it's just a live cover done.

The irony is that Celtic Frost have used movements of Metallica songs on their own songs. Hypocrite.

i never heard this about Metallica covering a Celtic Frost song until i found this video. But all i know is when i first owned the TO MEGA THERION album in cassette tape years ago when i was 20 something years younger (and i still listen to it now by the way and its still just as good as i remember)...anyway, i remember i was playing it all the time and at the same time, Van Damme movie CYBORG was always on cinemax and in my mind i was pairing up the dramatic opening track INNOCENCE AND WRATH (which i feel the track belongs in the soundtrack of a post-apocalyptic movie) with the movie CYBORG and was working on doing splits..and thats why i still do splits now...and even though i am damn near a 50 year old curmudgeon still holding on to my splits..and i owe that to the opening track of that album even now..and i also still like older Metallica albums better because of the near 50 year old curmudgeon that i am

Maybe this will get more people to check out Celtic Frost , so Metallica might have done a good deed here after all. ( Optimism is so un-metal but I'm half asleep. )

Im not a Metallica fan but covers to me are showing respect. A lot of other things to get upset about now days .

You can tell this is nothing but a cry for attention

I’m not usually into the music drama shit but I am definitely on the side of Tom. The cover sounded like such garbage. It was like they just we’re screwing around trying to show their metal credentials. Tom F. Is a man that doesn’t suffer fools. He’s a serious dude when if comes to his music and art!

My reaction when they covered Engel by Rammstein.

So basically, if James was some kind of social justice activist instead of a hunter they wouldn’t have cared.

Thanks for not naming the song. Derp!

leave your politics out of music and be glad that a band that more than 6 people know the name of gave you some stage time

celtic frost / metallica diss track anyone??? metal beef. lol.

People saying he “left “ Celtic Frost....TOM IS Celtic Frost..it’s his band so he has the right to state his opinion. And Hellhammer,Celtic Frost and Triptykon are all bad ass bands!! Hail TOM!!!

Ok, so it wasn’t a very good cover of the song. But no need to get that angry about it. I love Celtic Frost/ Triptykon But take a deep breath Tom. It’s not the end of the world.

Celtic Frost was a very influencial band back in the 80's, so was Metallica. But the unfortunate death of Cliff destroyed the young metal creators. Master of Puppets or possibly and Justice for All was the end of Metallica as I knew it. I just fed into the various other metal artists in the 80's back then; Kreator, Destruction, Slayer, Omen, Celtic Frost, Hellhammer, Omen, Agent Steel, Pariah, Mercyful Fate, Fates Warning and the like. We were never short of 'real' metal bands; Metallica sold out for known status. They took their own path and real metal faded out of view for Metallica once that crappy 'Black' album was unfortunately released; that's when Metallica started playing Abba and Bread songs. They have and will suck for the rest of their tenure as they attempt to return back to 'Master' days and 'Lightning' days, 'Ride the Lightning' has the ability to hold up to Celtic Frosts 'Morbid Tales,' and possibly 'Kill em' All' and 'Master of Puppets' in all retrospect, nevertheless what Metallica has written in the last thirty-five years has by far sucked major crap. They should have hung up their music after '...and Justice for All' became complete. And for that matter, Celtic Frost should have given it up after 'Into the Pandemonium,' although 'Vanity/Nemesis' and 'Monotheist' is also two exceptional albums in their tenure as well. So to make a long story short both of these bands were gone in the 80's, one seeking major stardom while the other ran out of idea's. -Jeff Henneman-

holy shit! celtic frost is still around???

Great job. I love this channel that is Claw Feed.

James only hunted a Bear once and said that he regretted it.

Woulda been nice if you added the songs to the feed or maybe even gave the links in the post for it.

As humiliating as having to change your band name because you banged all your bandmates's gfs? Jk love you Warrior keep it metal \m/

omg is he really talking about that video form the black album era where James is hunting that video is almost 30 years ago

This was a... Celtic Roast! I let myself out.

What was the song they covered?

Cliff would've done it justice with just his bass \m/

If my worst enemy had a good song, I’d be man enough to admit it, even if I don’t like him Talent is talent to me

nice :) love it! A lot of truth to a lot of Metallica live covers being junk.

I didn't think anyone would ever take Rob & Kirk's onstage doodles seriously. The short covers are done in good fun and aren't meant to be incredible (heck, I'm not sure they even rehearse them). Tom is just complaining for the sake of complaining. Besides, why did he even need to bring up James's politics or pastimes in this? It quite literally has nothing to do with the subject at hand, lmao.

Tom G Warrior has more metal in his pinkie than all of the fingers of Metallica put together. The last good Metallica album came out in 1988. The Triptykon album that just came out this year (2020) kicks total ass.

Celtic Frost is still around?

Doesn't even mention the song. Wtf?

Is this guy that same guy from Stevie T poppunk video?

This just inspired me to start a metal band and call ourselves "Hunting Bears". lol!!!

That stuff that Rob and Kirk do is a joke and it's absolutely horrible. It kills me to see what they do because they are incredibly gifted musicians. I wish Rob would get out already and return to his infectious grooves and suicidal tendencies roots.

HE spoke TRUTH 💫✊💫

What song was it? I didn't hear the title mentioned. EDIT: Never mind. Found it. The horror. The horror...

I'm not taking any sides here, but has anyone seen and heard Celtic frost on stage? They make slayer look friendly. Of course they hate anything Metallica dose or stands for because Metallica took metal mainstream

*WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO CELTIC FROST?*

What song was it?

I love both bands. I will have to look into the bear hunting aspect

You can hunt any animal as long as it's legal and keeps nature on balance Some bears in certain parts of the world are overpopulated and in those areas need to be hunted to keep the numbers in check

I love celtic frost & I love hunting....especially bears

Celtic Frost was one of my favorites I'd listen to on a walkman walking around town as a teenager.

Maybe they should have covered their song Cherry Orchards lol.

I can respect someone who hunts. I have very little respect for Metallica, tbough.

whoa, salty much buddy? You should just be glad maybe the biggest band out there is even giving you the nod.

Bro. If even one person became a fan of Celtic frost because of this it did more good than bad.

It's shit like this that reminds me why the industry is in the shape that it's in.

Damn, seems like everyone is trying so hard to take down Metallica

This coming from a band that wore faster pussycat tee shirts and singing cherry orchard

Oh! it's the RamnstEEn guy!!

Celtic Frost?

Metallica should cover another one of their songs just to spite them😂

CELTIC FROST 👍👍👍. METALLICA 😟

Dude Metallica is my favorite band... But Tom hit it on the head when he said they lost the ability a long time ago to really thrash I to out, st. Anger on just isn't Metallica.. (load and reload were more of an experimental thing and it's kinda catchy

Wonder if james likes the song countdown to extinction lol

Thomas Gabriel Fisher has a lot of nerve saying anyone "lost the ability to play metal" after the mental relapse that was Cold Lake.

I always assumed that bands like Celtic frost were molded from the same clay as bands like Mayhem, Dissection, Immortal...etc who are considered extreme black metal as they embrace chaos and all things evil. But hearing how Tom despises the killing of animals for sport shows me that although bands like Celtic Frost (Tom Fisher specifically,) may have an extreme views in their music, generally they’re good guys. I can definitely respect that.

Oh Tom, never change…

Tom should be proud

The whole hunting argument against James is adolescent.

My goodness...It wasn't an actual cover!!!! IT WAS A DOOOOODLE!!!!

So what song did they cover? Im pretty sure its not dying god, isnt it?

I thought the photo of James hetfield with that dead bear was a hoax and not James hetfield...?

There just 2 different bands!!!! One is popular around the world and 2 band is pure black metal difference minds

oh god. what a crybaby. this celtic frost guy should be thankful for the publicity. i didn't even know they were still around.

Lol.metallica fans aren't even metalheadsxD they don't know who is celtic frost

Says the man who created Cold Lake!

It's exactly the definition of a "cover", a reinterpretation of a song... He has the right to like it or not but using that to suddenly trash on them on other issues that has nothing to do with it is useless. You can tell that he had that in his mind for a long time, he just needed a random occasion to spill it all out.This is pretty immature. (in my opinion)

I'm so metal that I hunt bears... with fvcking bears!!

They should have done wine in my hand

Didn't Celtic Frost cover Seek and Destroy once? Lol.
