"So anyway. Here's Wonderwall."https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=6AO238T1vNwdo they do this in every town they play in bearing a super famous, non-metal local act? Anyone know? I’m enjoying that Hetfield introducing them in the video isn’t enough of an authority, so you turn to ilx0rs. But yeah, they did Take On Me in Oslo, Dancing Queen in Stockholm, etc. I guess if there’s a metal band from the town too, they’ll give you extra value: here they are in Birmingham.https://youtu.be/pgMmALj8-Jk

Their vaguely distinctive yet limited style really doesn’t do those songs any favors

Nah, the "Alcoholica" days are way behind them. There was an article a while ago that said that they search through Spotify data to make sure that the most-streamed songs in a given city make it into that night's set.

Honestly if he did a full album of reinterpretations I'd be in.

A few of these sound interesting, if not necessarily good. Thinking Rina, Moses Sumney, the Neptunes.

Those 3-minute pop songs from the Black Album are probably the least interesting starting points for a 15-minute afro-spiritual jazz excursion.

Though I'd rather have them work with these people for a new album than do reinterpretations of old material.

I really like that they sequenced it with one version after another of each song, like one of those interminable jazz box sets (or the Stooges complete Fun House sessions) where alternate take after alternate take are stacked up until you want to saw your ears off.

I'm waiting for all the "Nothing Else Matters" versions to come out so someone can create a YouTube where they're all mashed together playing at the same time.

The collection features multiple covers of the 12 tracks on Metallica’s 1991 self-titled LP. For example, there are six versions of 'Enter Sandman' and 12 (!) covers of 'Nothing Else Matters'."

she plays the solo too, though it's a bit diff than Hammett's, though some of it she lifts note for note.
― cancel culture club (Neanderthal), Tuesday, 29 June 2021 23:02 (two years ago) link
Miley’s Nothing Else Matters is fine, thought it’s pretty much a perfect power ballad for her without any substantial changes. The Juanes Enter Sandman is pointless.
The Jason Isbell Sad But True isn’t great but at least tries to do something a little different with the source material.

guess who else is doing a cover of "Nothing Else Matters"? why, it's none other than TRESOR, the Congolese-South African singer with the heavenly voice!

Kamasi Washington and band (large band — Thundercat's there, two extra percussionists, extra vocalists, etc.) debuted their version of "My Friend of Misery" at the Hollywood Bowl, with Kirk Hammett and Rob Trujillo sitting in.
