Nothing beats Justice Hetfield voice, Holy shit!

[Janjibro]

This makes me realize how much I miss James’ old voice. One of the first songs I ever heard aside from Sandman as a younger kid was One and I remember how gruff his voice was and it just defined Metallica for me. I had never heard anything like that before… this was before I was a metal head and I absolutely loved what I heard before I think I even knew of metal as a genre. Anytime the radio would announce a Metallica song I’d be like hey it’s the band with the really gruff sounding singer! Yay!

Seriously his voice and what it grew into by Justice and even black album was such a huge part of what made their sound so great.

Even just the way he could use that power in between songs yelling at the audience did such an incredible job of getting the audience pumped. Gave the band so much added energy and intensity.

I know he blew his voice out once but he got too paranoid after that thinking it was guaranteed to happen again so he stopped doing it.

Their music just didn’t have the same energy to it after he started singing clean.

He started barking again recently but I noticed he just does little bursts of it here and there proving he could still do it if he wanted to but he just won’t commit to singing like that full time anymore and it sucks cause everytime he has a little burst of bark it just sounds so badass…. Still

AMAZING!!! We need the entire Hardwired to Self Destruct and 72 Seasons album in this voice!!

[proteusblack]

God, the tone of the instruments sound like a joke along side Justice James's bark 😂

[Paularodin]

Just 15 years proved how good Death Magnetic actually is! 🤘🏻

[FyreofShadow]

You should do this on GuitarRazze's "If All Nightmare Long was on ...And Justice For All", that would be so damn good.

[nickhartman]

Holy shit, I didn't think it was possible for this song to sound any more amazing! Would love to hear newer stuff like Hardwired done in this style 🤘

[kenanozangenc]

This is so good. I was so hyped to hear last chorus. But disappointed because the breath is missing at 6:55 😁

[conorgarvey]

I've been waiting for something like this for a very long time. This is S tier quality 😁

[AlexanderLeGrand]

goes to show just how pivotal James' vocals were to early Metallica. Been a long time without this vocal agression.

[mybluguitar]

To make this even better, you should do ai 1988 hetfield's voice with the guitar hero version of tracks from death magnetic!!

[J.Mack]

I would love to hear you do The Outlaw Torn with 88 Hetfield.

[seanemmett]

It blew my mind back in 1994 when they took a break from the band due to rising tensions. During a concert, singing "So What, " he strained his voice so bad, he was told he couldn't scream anymore or his band days would be numbered. So he went to voice lessons to sing a different way. That's why it changed from the Black album to Load, not to mention switching genres.

[georgy]

this is very good but it also made me appreciate James' real performance.

[carlosbarahona]

Please can you make spit out the bone with james of 1991

[Ninnuam]

This + GuitarRazze mix would be amazing

[seanlee]

I wanna hear AI James singing songs off of Hardwired… To Self-Destruct

[MohamedAkhbar]

I think i see the trend here, u are trying to make all the Drath Magnetic full album with 88 James vocals. Its cool though. Waiting for more bro.

[Metallute]

Am I the only one stupid enough to be MARVELED by the fact that AI can do this?!

[Triggerman-ldyp]

We need a "What if All Nightmare Long was on AJFA" video with this voice
