Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture amy Average	#1 by amy at Oct 10, 1970 at 7:00 PM EST
	Yeah, Metallica opens every show with this peice...it's great, but not found on any albums except the Justice Import and Garage Inc. Something tells me this song has a "religious" background, but I'm not sure!

No Picture birdman Average	#2 by birdman ethdh at Aug 5, 1977 at 12:26 PM EST
	Metallica could always pull off a diamond head cover better than it was originally written .. For the most exclusive and best metallica pictures go to sxcemx.piczo.com and click metallica .. Or click on a band member's name to see rarest pictures of them ..

No Picture Zach Wanna Be	#3 by Zach U haft 2 ask 1st at Aug 14, 2000 at 5:34 PM EST
	Quite possibly Metallica's best cover song, the solo at the beginning is kickass =)

No Picture marc Professional	#4 by marc at Mar 10, 2005 at 4:06 AM EST
	I love that riff. The MetallicA cover is 1000 times better

No Picture Andrea Average	#5 by Andrea Lauria at Dec 6, 2006 at 1:16 AM EST
	what I really don't understand about metallica is why such an amazing band like them would go doing songs like this. Like if you read into this it should be obvious that they are talking about selling your soul to the devil for wealth
