Twisted Music Video Of The Week Vol. 33: Metallica “Until It Sleeps”

I’m gonna just go ahead and say this: “Until It Sleeps” is probably one of my favorite Metallica songs. No joke. I love the structure, I love the build-up, I love the dynamics…DAMN it’s a good song! And the video is just as awesome! Taking visual inspiration from the infamous Hieronymus Bosch painting The Garden Of Earthly Delights, the band members seems to each suffer in their personal agony while surreal and often violent moments occur all around them. Definitely in my Top 10 music videos of all time, I highly recommend checking out the video below if you’ve never seen it!

[Original] Metallica And The Case Of The Entitled Fans

 [Original] Metallica And The Case Of The Entitled Fans
I feel like I need to clear something up. You see, I’ve been kinda hard on Metallica here. I called them “average joe schmoes” in my article about how the Internet stole the mystery of musicians and I ripped Lulu apart in my review. It’s probably safe to say that were one to look solely at my articles about Metallica, you’d think I hated, or at the least didn’t think much of the band. 
But this couldn’t be further from the truth. As a matter of fact, I love Metallica. They’re the band that got me into metal. Nothing Else Matters is the song that inspired me to learn the guitar and is a song I teach to each of my students. Until It Sleeps is still one of my all time favorite music videos. Simply put, I respect the hell out of these guys and rock out to their music all the time.
So why am I bringing this up? After all, I’m not here to just profess my admiration for Metallica. I can do that via Twitter, right? Well, the problem that I see is what I like to call the “entitled fan”. Need an explanation? Well, I shan’t leave my dear readers hanging!

Retro Review: Going To ’84 To Check Out Metallica’s ‘Ride The Lightning’

First of all, some of my favorite Metallica tracks are on here. Second of all, the album was released when I was a month old, so I feel a strange connection with it. So, join me readers, as we head back to 1984 to check out Metallica’s sophomore album.
