[AceMcshred]

Not just the down picking, but the power he puts into it at those tempos I think is what sets him apart.

[bobcaca]

His tightness and accuracy are almost unmatched

In the NBA, Jerry West is a player known as “the logo” because his silhouette is on the official badge of the NBA. When it comes to metal, Hetfield is the logo.

James is one my favorite guitar players... he is an incredible guitarist...

Plus, the fact that despite being in late 60s, he’s still kicking ass!

I saw an video with kirk where he said they tuned down to c for the thing that should not be. It was either drop c sharp or c standard sharp. I can't remember exactly what tuning but i know it was c something. He said it was the first time they ever detuned

[AlejoConejo-vbln]

Not just downpicking but also singing while doing it is INSANE

[tharunsholarajan]

He’s a fucking GOD!! been my favourite artist for a good 26 years now. Ever since I first heard Metallica.

[COOL-]

There’s one more reason James is cool he stepped on the fire and survived.

[McMillanScottish]

Fun fact, Master of Puppets was recorded slow and sped up, because nobody could play it that fast reliably. Live, nobody hears the mistakes, so they can get away with it.

[wariokhabib]

You should hear James' solo on Suicide and Redemption.

Yeah. That's JAMES!!! Go watch them play it live in Denmark if you don't believe me!!!😃

[jeffbudd]

I'll raise you Jon Schaffer. Dudes picking and riffs blows James outta the water.

[martindousek]

Im sure there is much more than 6 reasons for why is he awesome🤘

[CrocsterS]

“Uhm… actually, all the good solos were played by Dave mustaine!” 🤓🤓🤓

[WotansKarl]

Lordy people still think he downpicks everything?? He admitted in an interview with guitar world that he alternate picks their fastest stuff
