What are some other real good Metallica songs. Fade To Black and Nothing Else Matters hvae moved their way into my personal favorite songs of all time. I don't like Enter Sandman, but are there any other songs like Fade To Black and Nothing Else Matters that they do? Or other bands do?

Try The Unforgiven or The Unforgiven II, these have a slower almost ballad approach, and are great songs.

Check out Welcome Home (sanitarium) and One too. They both have a brutal ending but 1st half of these songs are definitly ballad oriented. And than there´s lot´s of ballads on Load and Reload. Especially Load. Turn The Page is also pretty cool though it´s a cover.

But Fade To Black, Nothing Else Matters and The Unforgiven are the leading ones.

Until it sleeps is a great song and it's not either heavy nor a ballad.
You are just looking for that type of songs by metallica?

Tuesday's Gone off Garage Inc, it's pretty good altough nothing beats the original
To improve technique and of course trying to keep all as clean as possible. I know my own limits and speed limits and so on I never play anything I'm not capable of. That wouldn't make any sense. After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like shit, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.

Are these songs all metal, or are they the "ballad" type songs.

For calm ballad music wich hit´s you right in the heart (our is it brain??), check out Slayer.

Cemetery Gates and Hollow are damn cool songs. Hollow melody is amazing. Great whammy bar technique by Darell. Never like This Love.

And SLY, that´s right man. If you want to listen to Metallica, listen to SLY´s set list. That´s the real Metallica, un-ripped, agressive, fast, brutal...GREAT!!!

Dejan Sajinovic - Yeah dude , the real metallica ... When I play a gig and covering some metallica my choices would usualy be picked up from that list (in addition to few others) .



Tele Master - The songs are mostly metal , or slow with the remarkable great old metallica's touch like "fade to black" for instance ... Just check'em out and tell us what do you think.

Fight Fire With Fire has a great classical 12-string gtr into. Really cool idea to start off such a brutal song with such intro.

BYW the best instrumental is Orion (my opinion)
