The Five Faces of Metallica
These are five different songs that opened Metallica up to different audiences. Metallica has so many fans, of so many different groups, and these groups discovered Metallica through these songs:
5 "Dyers Eve" - And Justice for All...
This is a amazingly fast song that played to the thrash and speed metal fans. This song is so intense that Metallica has a hard time trying to play it today like they did when they first released it. This song is very seldom played life but it has been played a few times on select tours. This song, known for its speed, opened up Metallica's first fans (heavy metal, speed metal fans) to Metallica's ability and level of expertise.
4 Hero of the Day - Load
This is one of Metallica's slower paced songs. Though it does pick up the tempo in the middle (at 2:33), it was quickly rejected, along with the whole album, by Metallica's fan-base for being too alternative rock. The Load album was their first of alternative rock experiment and many fans did not enjoy where they were going with it. However, it is true to say that many alternative rock fans loved this song and it is now known as one of Metallica's most famous songs.
3 " Until it Sleeps " - Load
James pours his heart out about his beliefs in God and religion. The song was written when James was dealing with intense religious beliefs bias' his family. James mom was under the belief that God would come to save her, which made her refuse the life-saving medication that doctors had prescribed her. James' lyrics characterize the competing beliefs in science and religion, asking the listeners to think hard about their ideas. Atheists and intellectuals in the world found this song to be an interesting song that dealt with their debate, something most songs stay clear of.
2 " No Leaf Clover " S & M
Through the years leading up to Metallica's new S & M show with the San Fransisco Orchestra, James was jamming around, playing with a couple of riffs he hadn't found a song for. When S & M began recording, the band was rehearsing, and Metallica was accompanied by a large orchestra, James new guitar riffs found a place to live in No Leaf Clover. This song was created for the orchestra show in San Fransisco. It was instrumental in showing Metallica as not only beloved metal players, but as smart people who knew how to create exceptional songs.
1 "Master of Puppets" - Master of Puppets
A truly amazing masterpiece of metal banging performance. This 8 minute song is one of the most popular in the bands history and helped bring Metallica to fame when it was released. Who couldn't love the powerful riff, the clever lyrics, or the interesting middle section. The song topped charts and brought Metallica out in the open for the world to see. - 18423
