1:23 rob is really channeling that dad energy with how he's holding the phone

James been doing dad jokes since the 80s. It never gets old !

My son who passed away in May at age 43 of an undiagnosed heart condition was a huge Metallica fan! He probably still is enjoying their music from the other side!

I have been a fan sense I was 13. Turned 51 today an still listen to Metallica to this day...🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

2:34 The chair throw💀💀💀

They’re big enough that they can do whatever they want… and guess what… they do whatever they want. Good for them.

Their smiles get me every time. Love these guys ❤️

My mother has been a fan since the beginning. She turned 70 in Oct. I played her the new Lux Aeterna and her first question was "when are they touring again?" Forget the haters. It's the diehard fans that deserve the attention.

James Hetfield even said that Metallica wanted to do an album like the black album for a long time. They didn't make this record because of record label pressure. They made music that they wanted to. What, are they supposed to follow the same thrash formula for a 40+ year career? Stupid to call them sell outs. Honestly I kinda hate the sell out term in general. Bands aren't aloud to step outside of their normal formulas and follow a more mainstream sound without being hated on.

"i could never get the lighting right" I fucking love his humor omfgggg

"I didn't really grow up around medieval dragons. No. We had cats" 😂😭

I've said it before, and Imma say it again: they ain't sellouts, they just sell out arenas! 🤘😆🤘

Papa Het driving and the kids are in the back of the car. Metallica 🤘

The thing is, no matter what you think of the Black album… These are some of the most talented musicians to ever step on stage. The fact that they sound as good today as they ever did, should be proof positive of that talent. Not to mention, writing 40 years of music is not easy. Keeping a fanbase happy for 40 years, is not easy. Reinventing yourself in lieu of the feedback you know you’re probably going to get, is not easy. Stepping out of the comfortability of your own skin in order to try something new is what made this country and world great. it’s what sets great apart from average or mundane. Be who you are and be proud of it, never be afraid to try something new and experiment with something old. Live life every day like it was your last and love like it was your first.

A band that will forever be on their own level. No other band from this genre will ever come close! They paved the way for every heavy metal band going forward.

I was raised by a drummer boomer step dad who behaves exactly like this. All we talk about is music and silliness. He came into my life when I was 3. I’m 39 now. Still thankful to be a rock kid 🤟

1:02 James giggle is hilarious

1:56 Dave ?

Metallica is so special. My dad and I would always listen to them in the car when I was really little, like late 90’s, I was almost 6. To this day, I love them. My husband played Master of Puppets for me on his guitar like 5 days into dating, years ago. I was in love 😂.

“We had cats”

Hahaha. They rule. 53 female fan since my late teens. Just took my older son (19) to see them in Napa. We got soooo close. My son plays their songs on his guitar. Best!!!

Metallica are fkn awesome. First concert I ever went to,wagged school drove hours to see them. One of my favourite memories as a teen! Even my horse ElleMay loved the Black album. My boyfriend at the time learnt every song on that album by ear... talented young man he was and ElleMay loved listening to him play it and I of course thought he was so cool lol. Rock on Metallica ✨💚

That album just shocked us diehard fans way back in the day. We needed a little more time to warm up to it, but after listening a few times....Black is Epic! 💯👍🏼🎶 🖤🖤🖤

Saw them for the 5th and 6th time at Rockville last November. They did the whole Black album....backwards. Best part of the show. They NEVER disappoint.

If the Black Album sucks, then I should probably not tell my dad. He'll have a heart attack. Some twenty years ago he came to me with this album. "You should listen to this. It is very good."

Dude Rob is just along for the ride, always just chillin in the background😂

It's so nice to read all the stories of how you guys got to know Metallica at an early age. I can't remember when I heard them for the first time. I must have been 3 or 4 years old. I just know I've known some of their songs since forever. I've even heard some songs now as an adult that I hadn't heard in many many years and all of a sudden all the memories come back and I remember hearing the song and being so little that everything around me seemed to be huge. They've always been a part of my life.

Metallica is Awesome I have been listening to them since I was 13 years old.

Life is ours, we live it our way-ay🤘😛🤘

I needed to see this today. Metallica make me feel so good. Without a doubt the best band in the world!

I remember a time decades ago when people thought of Metallica’s Black Album as being “soft” or a “sell out “.... but their true fans always got it.... and it was amazing as always...I never cared about a number of stars review and never will.... Metallica, your fans are here forever!🤟🏻❤️🤟🏻❤️

The Unforgiven was the first song I ever heard. Ride the Lightning was the first record I ever heard, and Black was the first album I ever bought and still love it. Legendary band.😊

I remember my introduction to Metallica like it was yesterday It was around 1992. I was about eight years old and there was this cool older guy who gave me a tape of …And Justice for All. I went home and played that tape over and over, it is still my favorite album to this day.

I love this album, thank You so much Metallica! 🙏💗🇵🇱🎶🎸⚡😉😄

Watching them reading the reviews and laughing all the way to the bank! Rock on! 🤘🏼

Fan since I was 13... I'm forty still fan.. Still watching vids such as Cliff em all .. rememberig old days... tear in my eye ;( Love them.. they made my music taste :) So grateful !!

I saw them headlining a festival in June on one of the hottest days of the year and they were having fun, played longer than sheduled and were still on stage talking to the crowd when roadies were already getting gear off. It was awesome.

I started listening to Metallica when I was 10 years old, but when I was 5 years old, my older brother had a cassette with some songs, there was the song Fear of the dark, I remember, and on that cassette there was an instrumental song that I liked the most and I didn't know his name. I turned 10 and took all the Metallica albums and went in line to look for it hoping they were performing that song and luckily I found it! Orion, Orion, Orion, 100x Orion. Their song is still my favorite to this day. I love trash metal and the first 4 albums are my favorite because it's that real fast aggressive hard powerful Metallica with godlike riffs that spewed fire. Every real Metallica fan will say that Metallica lost their DNA after 1989, the Black album is the best album, but it's just a commercial album made for the masses and fools and if theirs is the best and best selling (I know a lot about Metallica, it's 100x better than today children, because I even wrote a seminar paper about them). All on one side of the scale, Metallica bought me for my whole life! Kill em all, the fastest speed album of all time. Ride the lighting no2 the best trash album of all time. Puppets no1 trash metal album of all time and best trash song of all time. Justice is the hardest album to play in all of metal music, it's just the hardest and the hardest riffs. Black, the best, the best selling, the biggest success, the prime of their career, the album that gathered 1.8 million people in Moscow. Every other album is irrelevant, even if the songs Bleeding me and Unforgiven 2 are very dear to me. Ulrich, for me, is the best drummer of all time. Some people can't even listen to it for 2 minutes, but I can for a lifetime. You my brother gave Metallica DNA! James, no1 rhythm guitar, the man played flawlessly in his prime! God of trash metal music! Maybe a Michael Jordan will be born again, but someone like you won't! You are the Nikola Tesla of metal music! Burton no1 Metallica bass guitar. Newsted = energy, you are my favorite. Robert, the bass guitar dad! No1 metal band in the history of music, everyone else is watching your back! Thank you for making my childhood beautiful! Metallica 4E

Loved them from age 11, I'm now 43 and they're still my favourite band. My daughter and I seen them in Slane Castle Ireland....awesome gig

This literally reminds me when Slayer was on Kimmel in 2007 Eyes of the Insane and Bullet for my Valentine and Serj Tankian and stuff man!!

I've loved, I love and I will always love Metallica - the sound, the words, the band. I am a huge fan since 1987 ( I was 12 yo when I first heard them) . I've been to concerts and it's such a wonderful experience!!!! 🤘🤓🤘

OMG I enjoyed this so much. Love me some Metallica

Saw these at Download 2023. Wow wow. Brilliant band. Grew up listening to them and listening to them live i got goosebumps . Amazing

Yeah, I’ve been listening to the band since I was 13…. I’m 49 and still in love with Kirk Hammett ❤️❤️❤️❤️

I've never been a big Metallica fan personally ( not that I don't respect their musicianship, they are great musicians and performers), just wasn't all my personal vintage. But good grief are these guys FUNNY, and have an AWESOME sense of humor. I LOVE that. This is GREAT!!! I wish them the best, this video is awesome.

2:28 poor lars

One of my favorite albums, welll then there's M.O.P 's which was also amazing. And their new music as well. Thanks for the past, the present, and the future Metallica!

0:19 «I didn’t say, I never received one» Lars knew what he was doing

I loved Metallica since I was eleven. They’re the coolest people! I’m 49 and all 4 sons love them. I took my eldest to his first concert, The Big Four!

The Load/Reload/St Anger phase was probably the most I ever drifted from Metallica. Then Death Magnetic brought them back into my sphere and Hardwired sealed the deal. Killer album. Ride the Lightning came out when I was a senior in high school and Kirk/James are the one's that made me get a guitar. The Call of Ktulu stands today as my favorite metal song of all time.

god how i love these wonderful guys! 😭✨

From the very beginning Metallica has ruled the airwaves and our ears \mm/

I absolutely love Metallica! Not only they are the best band ever but they are super funny! I love James’s humour ❤

I'm 32 now and a can't remember the first time I heard Metallica, cause my uncles, my aunt, the husband of my aunt, my dad an mom, all of them used to listen to Metallica! So it seems it always been there, but when I was 13 I guess, it's when they really got me and I started to pay more attention to the lyrics and everything else, and well, they became my biggest band. For all the moments of my life I had a metallica song, still love them and listen to them to these days, by the way my first tattoo was an art from the album and justice for all. I loved even the St Anger album, even not being the best one of them, I understood the context of the songs. Metal fans are sucks hahaha always complaining and doing absolutely nothing

This middle-aged woman has been your fan since I first heard you in 1983 while sitting in the back seat of a Chevy Vega, tweaking my brains out, speeding down 101 toward Daly City. I was actually shocked by what I heard blasting out of the speakers - I'd never heard anything like it before. It burned a memory in my brain. You guys are adorable. At the top of your game bitches! Including Rob.

I was a Metallica fan at 17, living in eastern EU, I am 44 now living in NA, have a family and amazed to see current 17 year olds with a Metallica shirt on, so yeah, I am still one of those headbanger Metallica fans. Every single Metallica album is a timeless masterpiece. Your music will live way beyond our century! Peace

Glad to see them doing this, they're all looking healthy too! Last time I seen them live was in 2017. Wonder if this was recently recorded tho. Edit: maybe? Idk hard to tell anymore lol

I just love you guys you have helped me thru many hard times!!! Rock on!! Cynthia from Arkansas the Deep South. YES!!!!

I first bought the Black album on cassette twice and wore them out. Now I have it on CD!!! You Rock!

still having fun after all these years! rock on!

Love your humour. This was funny

When he read "penniless on welfare" I burst out laughing 🤣

You are the best, greetings from Germany (Hamburg) ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Always loved Metallica and always will

❤️‍🔥 pretty much the soundtrack to my high school experience

Maaaaaaaaan I LOVE Metallica!!! Over twenty years now I have major Loved Metallica

The Black Album the icing on a Fantastic 5 album run. All are essential to a Fan of Metal collection..

I Love this Album. It's what's got me into METALLICA. STILL MY FAVORITE. I wore out a cassette tape and a cd I am on my second cd, I did down loaded in a flash drive for my truck/car. You guys are COOL.

I remember being young... All go, no quit, balls to the wall... But before you know it, you got old. Shit hurts for longer than it used to. You have responsibilities. You seek more comfort. I've lived long enough to understand why Metallica has changed. It's called... Life.

I was listening to the Black album when I had a head on car collision with a drunk driver. Lost that disc forever. Still love that album. Will always listen to it. The day I got home from the hospital. I went and bought a new disc.

Metallica is on the radio right now and this video shows up in my feed.

I love it how the synchronise each other

3:34 You're hired, I'm fired

I love Kirk Hammett ❣️❣️❣️ it is an honor to have had his music in my life. Such beautiful leads and arrangements. Metallica as a whole has made timeless masterpieces. I truly love them all❣️

FREAKING LOVE THEM!! They older, they’ve done it all. Grammy Winners, Sell Out Stadiums all OVER THE WORLD. Metallica can do whatever they want cuz they been made it! Love their humor.

The black album is one of my favorites. Ppl criticizing don’t understand bands different range. My cousin introduced me to this album and shes now passed away i will always remember our times of me being 12 listening to this and loving it.

Only Metallica can goof on one the greatest albums of all times

Only those who don’t love good music , would ever not love the black album! Those of us who love good music love Metallica & the black album.

Been listening to these Men since 83 always Heavy always Good .... Motorbreath.

Aww the clip of Joe with them at the end ❤️

The best. Let your haters be your force. Keep plugging

Love that they can take the criticisms and laugh at themselves.

😆 😂 well I got to say totally different... love the black... great to see you goofing around... 🤘🏻🤘🏻🖤❤️‍🔥👊🏻

Freak me out 😅😂😂😂 Fav team,fav band,best wishes.

thanks for sharing.! that’s was brilliant! 🤘🏻🇦🇺🌏🤘🏻

James has dreams of Dragons fire.

Metallica is so goofy i love them

The Black Album is what first lured me into the world of Metallica. I STILL love it! Been a die hard fan ever since. Everything they do is AWESOME! 👍🤘

Metallica will never suck no matter what anybody says they will go down as the greatest rock and roll heavy metal band ever and ever and ever nobody will be like them

that flying chair had me dying

Idosos mas sempre guris... Metallica é eterno.

I've been listening to Metallica since the early eighties when they 1st came out they had some great albums, and they had some so-so albums, and then they've had reload album. Every group or artist has the good and the bad if you good loyal fans, you take the good along with the bad.

I loved that album, two of my fav songs are on it!

The Black Album is one of the biggest metal album ever…like it or not. In 2023, more than 30 years after its release, it’s still on the billboard. Fucking awesome album 👍

3:27 son and father rocking father’s old fav song

the way they were holding the phone while reading the amazon hate comments was peak dad behavior

1:12 killed me. Anyone who thinks Metallica ever once sold out clearly hasn't heard My Chemical Romance.

Been a fan since the 80s.... Don't give a sh*t what anybody thinks of this band..... They'll always be an iconic group of talented individuals who made some of the best music in the metal music world..... Rock on boys🤘🤘🤘

Saw them live in Manchester uk on the black album tour they were amazing, I still love it im now 57
