Everybody gangsta till the bassist starts playin' wild flamenco riffs.
-
"Well the technique is..." starts playing something hard af

Trujillo was the spark Metallica had lost. You can literally watch them get re inspired through him. Pretty rad to see.
-
The way that James just hears it once and instantly can replicate is so incredible.
-
The moment the lead guitarist realizes he’s the third best guitarist in the band...
-
0:36 Kirk has his own entrance music now
-
2:23 is the moment Kirk really feared for his life
-
1:34 that transition James added to the riff shows how talented he is at creating amazing rhythms on the spot
-
Legend has it that Kirk is still searching for the tabs to this riff.
-
Two things really stand out from this: 1) Trujillo is such a baller. 2) James knows it's gold and picked that up instantly, his ear and rhythm are absolutely unreal.

0:38 Kirk enters , Robert plays a cool lick and goes for a high five, Kirk senses competition and downsteps the high five.
-
1:15 I didn’t realize it until a second pass but we’re witnessing a magical moment here. That little lick is the same one used in All Nightmare Long, in the transition between the hook and the verse riff
-
"well the technique is just:" proceeds to shred on a acoustic guitar
-
Robert: you understand the notes? Kirk's brain: hmm where i can add wahhh
-
1:37 that slide is fucking badass
-
These guys are talented musicians. They should start a band
-
It's almost like he's a professional musician or something
-
Kirk is like "are they gonna Dave Mustaine Me?"
-
As someone who was in and out of bands all through high school, college, and up into my late 20's, now being in my mid-30s and having not played for years, James' "What was that thing you were doing?" at 1:18 brought a big ole' nostalgic smile to my face!

0:29 you see the wheels starting to turn in Hetfields head. True musician
