Metallica Album: “King Nothing [Single]”

"King Nothing" is a great song, probably the best on the album. The only problem was when James Hetfield says "Off to Never Never Land" at the end of the song. I don't need to be reminded that "Enter Sandman" is there, I've heard it enough. The B-side, "Ain't my Bitch" is a great recording: faster than the EP live. It doesn't match up to other Metallica live releases, though, such as **Live Shit: Binge and Purge**. Now that's good!

King Nothing is a cool Metallica song in the style of Enter Sandman. It has that big back-beat with a good vocal rhyme sceme. The guitar solo plays against the riff perfectly and is one of my favorite "heavy" solos from this band. On the downside, the song seems to be performed with too much restraint and it makes me want Metallica to just break free and ROCK like we know they can. This is typical of Metallica in the studio. (Where's the new LIVE album?) Actually, Side 2 IS a live recording--Ain't My Bitch. This one rocks. They perform it faster and more aggressively here than they did on the original studio version (found on Load). There is the occasional "off" note--especially in the vocals--but it is delivered in such a fun way that you just don't care. It makes you remember why you loved Metallica in the first place.

A half way decent song from a not so decent album. The writers have obviouslly turned on their own name, METAL... Too many comparisons have been made to Enter Sandman, another song that will never hold a cndle to Master of Puppets or For Whom the Bell Tolls. a good band selling out for the next generation, which isn't a total loss, just a loss for the older generation who knew of Hetfield and Ulrich when Mustaine still walked amongst them with Cliff Burton or even Ron McGovny. To all who read, before you call Load and Re-Load "metal" get a copy of ...Puppets and listen to it straight through and learn why the mighty Ozzy Osbourne even had to say "those boys were a tough act to fallow"...

OI!!!!!!!!!!!! não understend nada!!!!!!!!!
