Is no one else gonna talk about how clean the transition was between Master of Puppets and Harvester of Sorrow?

[adamblesener]

I thought the title said metal riffs and I was like “damn, there a fuck ton of Metallica on here.”

Sound engineer: How much chorus do you want?
Metallica: Yes.

Top 10 Clean Metallica Riffs
3:15 - Wait thats illegal

[tpd]

Completely agree with the #1
Call of kthulu is a masterpiece

[guymandude]

My favorite is "To Live is to Die" the slow clean tone riff that comes in half way through the song and played alone then its played over volume swells and lead guitar is awesome.

[jacoblopez]

5:53 Wow! I was expecting Fade to Black! But no, it's the single most underrated instrumental song in history. This made my day and my week!

[guitarist]

...Before you comment "WHERES FADE TO BLACK" fade to black is acoustic, not clean electric.

How did I get this tone? Use the same guitar, pickups, strings, pick, amp & effects as James Hetfield

This guitar is brighter and also cleaner than my future.

[christianmangan]

harvester of sorrows is the best, it just gives that “shits about to go down vibes” and same thing with the thing that should not be

[Sidero]

I will never forget, when I heard my very first Metallica riff ever. It was "...and justice for all". This moment was the start of a new era in my life.

[liamoates]

You have nailed the hetfield tone it’s genuinely insane how accurate it is

[coolguyjulio]

call of ktulu being number one made my day such an underrated jem

[eeshsinger]

[kristofpelsoczi]

When The Thing started and stopped right before the heavy part that was like a cruel orgasm denial

[DruvisPriedens]

Finaly, someone is playing enter sandman clean riff correctly😂

[ivanmurrieta]

The Sanitarium's riff sounded so fckng beautifull

[vashusan]
