METALLICA Performs Another New Song At Japan's SUMMER SONIC Festival - Aug. 12, 2006

METALLICA performed another new song (http://youtube.com/watch?v=9ADP_eDAuhg) — tentatively dubbed "New Song No. 2" — during their headlining appearance Saturday night (August 12) at the Summer Sonic Festival in Tokyo, Japan. According to one BLABBERMOUTH.NET visitor (jason_813) who attended the concert, the song is "totally different from 'New Song No.1'. It's about three minutes long and very fast and seems to be based around two searing [Kirk] Hammett solos. It was a very rough performance, especially from Lars [Ulrich] but definitely shows promise."

As was the case with all the concerts on the band's recent European tour, METALLICA played their entire 1986 album, "Master of Puppets", during the Tokyo show, including rarely performed tracks such as "Orion" and "Disposable Heroes".

"Master of Puppets" came out in the spring of 1986 and was METALLICA's first gold album and mainstream success. It featured staples of the band's live set such as "Battery", "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" and the title track.

It was also the last METALLICA album to feature bassist Cliff Burton, who was killed later that year in a tour bus crash.

[Spydaman_69_2001]

OUCH!! I dont think the quality can get my shittier than that hahaha.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Sounds good, but I think I will wait for better quality still.

 

[Dän]

It sreally hard to make out what is going on, I wouldnt hold my breath for a decent song, in all honesty they havent put out a consistantly good album since 88, thats the year I was born for fucks sake!

heres a half decent version of it - theres fucken 4 sources of this show goin round so far!

The song sucks damn it, its some cross between really dodgey nu metal and punk

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Just had a listen, and that is actually a pretty good description. Sounded very Misfits + Kirk Hammett + a hint of Motorhead to me. Pretty simple stuff, but has a kinda fun feel about it. I liked it.

^^ Pro Shot Version.

And how the fuck you get nu metal out of this song is beyond me man. It's like Diamond Head meets Motorhead meets The Misfits..

So awesome.

Meh, I really dont like it, too punkish, the whole whoaing and ohhhing thing is shit

Dan, the song is only a roughy mate, alot is gonna change in the studio, maybe they won't even use the song who knows, it is stupid IMO to go bagging out new material from any band, unless they have the album in the bag, but not released, so what they are playing, is a true example of the product

Fair enough point, however, I think it is fair to judge from the two songs that have been played that perhaps the guys are taking a path that I am not going to like, sure its only two songs, and when they did debut songs live back in 95 for the upcoming Load album they were the two of shittest songs to come out of that period, so, hopefully, this will be the same. I dont hold in high hopes a prospect of a good album, Im not after another Kill or puppets, just a consistantly good and heavy album with no bullshit, just some songs that I could look forward to seeing live, that hasnt really been apparent for the last decade of albums that they have made.

edit - bah, I gave the song a couple of more listens, its starting to grow on me somewhat

 

[Dän]

2 X 4 is an AWESOME song!

I think they also played Devil's Dance in 95. Another awesome song.

2x4 is good, Devil's Dance on the other hand...
Yeh they played those two at Donnington 95

 

[Spruce Goose]

They have been touring with Avenged Sevenfold... Maybe their style has rubbed off on em in that new song

 

[Blitzkrieg]

As long as James doesn't start to whine like a bitch, it can't hurt.

 

[Celestial-Todd]

I believe that's Lars' job

 

[Icarus]

I cant understand how anyone could get excited about anything metallica release anymore. Hell im more interested in new robbie williams songs than metallica.

 

[Southy]

The new Robbie songs suck just as much you crazy bastard

 

[Priest of Evil]

im more excited about the new 'Deth
there, I said it
