7/30/2023 0 Comments Metallica garage inc songs![]() ![]() “Die, Die My Darling” is a welcome addition to the existing collection of Misfits covers. James Hetfield’s vocals and the ruminating main riff seem to be an indicator of where “The Memory Remains” came from. It’s a brooding tale of life on the road. The first really impressive track here is “Turn The Page”, originally by Bob Seger. They just can’t reproduce Sabbath’s whacked-out stoner groove. Metallica don’t fuck it up as badly as those covers, but “Sabbra Cadabra” isn’t particularly impressive. Slayer stumbled with their version of “Hand of Doom”, and Megadeth’s “Paranoid” is almost an unintentional parody. Covering Black Sabbath isn’t always as easy as it seems. Metallica’s love of NWOBHM band Diamond Head is well known, so a Diamond Head song was inevitable here, and while “It’s Electric” is no “Am I Evil?”, in the same vein as that famous cover, it’s not far removed from Metallica’s own style. Still, without Discharge, thrash metal wouldn’t have been thrash metal. Bob Rock does big, fat, and comfortable as a producer, with the latest in studio technology at his fingertips, while Discharge would have been recorded as quickly as possible on zero budget. ![]() It’s hard to sound desperate when you’re a multi-millionaire living comfortably. Metallica just can’t reproduce the same feel. Discharge’s originals are scuzzy and discordant, from a band on the verge of starvation. However, Metallica aren’t too good at Discharge, with “Free Speech For The Dumb” and “The More I See” bookending this disc. We know this because of their covers excellent of The Misfits, and Anti-Nowhere League’s utterly filthy “So What”. These run the full gamut of Metallica’s musical tastes, and some work better than others. Disc 1 of this double album is freshly recorded covers. ![]() “Garage Inc.” as a covers and B-sides compilation album lays bare the influences mixed in to Metallica’s thrash metal roots which made “Metallica”, “Load”, and “Re-Load” the albums which led the band to world domination. By the turn of the millennium, Metallica had become the biggest band in metal bar none, and was surpassed in popular music by only a handful of artists, but in creating new music thrash metal had been left far behind. The band and genre was somewhat niche, and not particularly well known outside metal and alternative music scenes. The 1990s saw Metallica start the decade as thrash metal’s biggest band.
