Metallica - C or D?

:D

Their vaguely distinctive yet limited style really doesn’t do those songs any favors

Also I don’t trust them to remember the correct city they’re in on any given night

Nah, the "Alcoholica" days are way behind them. There was an article a while ago that said that they search through Spotify data to make sure that the most-streamed songs in a given city make it into that night's set.

"So anyway. Here's Wonderwall."

<sic> That wasn't Wonderwall, sic. </sic>

sorry, I’m more of a Digsy’s Dinner man

What fresh hell

https://consequence.net/2021/06/metallica-blacklist-covers/

i won't diss this too hard as its for charity.... but i'd say the only i'm half-curious to hear is Off! doing Holier Than Thou

*only cover

Kamasi Washington – My Friend of Misery

Honestly if he did a full album of reinterpretations I'd be in.

A few of these sound interesting, if not necessarily good. Thinking Rina, Moses Sumney, the Neptunes.

Those 3-minute pop songs from the Black Album are probably the least interesting starting points for a 15-minute afro-spiritual jazz excursion.

But I'll take it

“As a preview of the release, Miley Cyrus and Elton John’s star-studded cover of “Nothing Else Matters” is streaming below. “
The horror

Though I'd rather have them work with these people for a new album than do reinterpretations of old material.

Basically, I want more Lulu's

I really like that they sequenced it with one version after another of each song, like one of those interminable jazz box sets (or the Stooges complete Fun House sessions) where alternate take after alternate take are stacked up until you want to saw your ears off.

Basically, I want more Lulu's

I was thinking about how Lou's shade is somewhere going "Look, guys, I GAVE you a model."

I'm waiting for all the "Nothing Else Matters" versions to come out so someone can create a YouTube where they're all mashed together playing at the same time.

Here's an interesting medley from that list:

Sebastian – "Don’t Tread on Else Matters"

It wasn't cute when Kiss did this 25 years ago, and it isn't cute now.

The Hu are always fun and they covered Sad But True last year.

Can't believe there's only one cover of Of Wolf and Man.

i wanna hear the Supremes do Nothing Else Matters

The collection features multiple covers of the 12 tracks on Metallica’s 1991 self-titled LP. For example, there are six versions of 'Enter Sandman' and 12 (!) covers of 'Nothing Else Matters'."

Difficulty: Not The Onion

hahaha is it like a Zaireeka where you play the six versions simultaneously

"Reel Big Fish covered the bass guitar and horns, disc 2 has Ed Sheeran doing the rhythm guitar, disc 3 has Daniel Behar on vocals"

Dangermouse better not get any wise ideas from this set.

I like St Vincent's dance-poppy "Sad But True"

she plays the solo too, though it's a bit diff than Hammett's, though some of it she lifts note for note.

Miley’s Nothing Else Matters is fine, thought it’s pretty much a perfect power ballad for her without any substantial changes. The Juanes Enter Sandman is pointless.

The Jason Isbell Sad But True isn’t great but at least tries to do something a little different with the source material.

Miley Cyrus is so bad

from the majestic peak of the Bangerz tour... to this.

guess who else is doing a cover of "Nothing Else Matters"? why, it's none other than TRESOR, the Congolese-South African singer with the heavenly voice!

(the goal, as ever, is #onethread)

Kamasi Washington and band (large band — Thundercat's there, two extra percussionists, extra vocalists, etc.) debuted their version of "My Friend of Misery" at the Hollywood Bowl, with Kirk Hammett and Rob Trujillo sitting in.

all future music will have to live up to this standard

Speechless.

Banger.

hilarious

and weirdly good

I remember that scene from Star Wars 8!

And hey! I can hear the bass!

Is this a late-era Queen song? Cuz it slaps

Buncha goofy Metallica-related videos making the rounds. Here's one:

(Don't know why some of these kids lead with the punchline, but whatever)

Here's another:

Ok, worth it once I got to No. 25.

That different singing voices guy is quite entertaining, though he's definitely better at some than others.

the fuck? what's the solution, "the bus driver did it with the bus in the bus?"

are there other collabos coming out, like Vince Neil's Monopoly, where every space reads "Go Directly to Jail"?

Oh shit this is awesome
Do they have a monopoly too?

Pieces seem to be a microphone , a Gibson explorer, a wah wah pedal, a bass, a treasure chest and ?

Can’t make out who the other 2 player characters are but I don’t think they’re cliff or Dave. Too bad
