I'm slightly disappointed that Fade to Black isn't on this list because it's the only song which touches my feelings just by a acoustic guitar intro

[JamoboBorg]

Cry of Achilles - Alter Bridge
Pendulous Skin - Mastodon
Jaguar God - Mastodon (Maybe)
Fear of a Blank Planet - Porcupine Tree

"Fight fire with Fire" and "To live is to Die" would be great for part 2...great video as usual Tyler! 🤘🤘🤘

Say what you will, but that intro acoustic riff is phenomenal, and is what got me into guitar

[Sebinaator]

Ghost Walking - Lamb of God
Cry of Achilles - Alter Bridge
Some of the greatest metal songs with accoustic intros.

Could you do : The Greatest Guitar Players We've Never Heard Of ? 🙏🤘

[MetalJames]

I was almost expecting you to belt out some vocals on "Roundabout".   I would've shouted Yes!

[GabzitoHD]

Battery is one of the best metallica songs

[digiornogiovanna]

This list should jst be every metallica ballad






And roundabout ofc

[liys]

roundabout must be included in the list

[blakejohnson]

The light that blinds by shadows fall has one of my favorite examples of this

[MessierNGC]

Dude! Great selection, and awesome production, it's sounded amazing!

[cbrot]

To answer the question of why I watch you, because you taught me triads and have thus set me on the path toward guitar mastery. I owe you a debt I can never repay.

I was surprised Crazy on You didn’t make the cut.
