The drummer's name is Lars Ulrich! 🤘🥁

Studio version next. So clean.

In fact, I'd do all studio versions first then live and videos.

Yes, the “EET FUK” guitar. Legendary guitar. It was James’ favorite guitar to use for a while.

This song was written in 1983, during a difficult time for the vocalist and rhythm guitarist, James Hetfield, who had his equipment stolen in Boston. It may seem like a small thing, but this equipment held sentimental value, as it was a gift from his mother, who had passed away four years earlier. James was 20 years old and hadn't properly dealt with his mother's death, and all of this was channeled into this song. Without wanting to give away too much of the song's meaning, I think it's worth listening to a more recent live version of the same song in Mexico City in 2024. James talks about the lyrics and gives a significant message to the fans, and it's definitely worth checking out.

Creeping Death-Moscow 91

Thank you!!! Great reaction!!  Metallica has many great songs, your gonna love it!! Creeping death please. You wont be disappointed.

Yes 🙌🏻 he was using the double kick !!

It's a dark song about a dark topic, hence the title.  However, more recently, at their live shows, Hetfield makes a heart-felt mid-song disclaimer.  Interesting how time (4 decades), life experience, and maturity gives an artist a different perspective on their own art.  The subject in the song is crying out in despair over deep depression and seeming hopelessness.  Hetfield reached out to his audience to remind them all they are not alone.  If nowhere else, they are not alone, (just the opposite) they are part of a family at the show.

James Hetfield, the singer, wrote this song after his equipment he used to start out and record the first album Kill Em All was stolen and it was given to him by his mother who had passed away when he was young  he was extremely depressed and this is what he wrote - a definite banger RIP Cliff Burton 🤘🏻

They have some beautiful intros. Especially for a Metal band.

Cliff Burton (original bassist and American metal god) is the one that taught them music theory and harmonization. That cool little step up from b to a in the intro was his idea.

Double bass represent heart beats when body start to panic. Kirk nailed that solo and still do it well. I’m playing Metallica for 30 years on Gibson and many times I was crying while learning Kirk’s emotional solos. “The God that failed” is another example of emotional solos. If you fascinated of bass lines you may want to check “My Friend of Misery” on Metallica’s black album. Thank you for your opinion and regards from Poland

‘Creeping Death’ from the live in Moscow concert is a good one to check out. If you like the story of Exodus, this is your jam. Keep the fire coming my friend. Cheers!!!!

Jason went through a lot of basses in Metallica. He had a problem with sweating a lot and the sweat would short out the electronics. He finally settled on Sadowsky. He had them custom made. He tested them by submerging them in a bathtub of hot salt water for hours. If they leaked, he threw them out. Sadowsky won the tub test.

Best band ever….also live 🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘🤘

So the inspiration behind this song stemmed from the loss of James’s favorite amp, the one he got from his mother right before she died. It was during the blizzard of ‘84, I believe. Their equipment truck was stolen in the middle of the night in Boston.

This is My favorite Metallica song and I've seen it performed live 4 times and all 4 times they played it significantly differently.

By all means this is their best concert ever imo… they were spot on throughout the whole show! It’s my fav concert from them! Every song is great! Also my fav era of them! Please do more!!
