Metal lica.
Mood: Melancholy Contempt
Music: Metallica-To Live Is to Die
I love this song. "To Live Is to Die" is basically 8 or so minutes of a guitar solo--with drums, of course--and then near the end, when you're just basking in it all..some lyrics come. I'm not sure who says them..if it's actually James Hetfield or Cliff Burton. I'm guessing the latter most likely. The song itself is from their old album ...And Justice for All which I bought rather recently along with Master of Puppets. I highly recommend Master of Puppets if you want to get into Metallica. It is easily accesible.
If you aren't familiar with Metallica...Cliff Burton died, I believe, by their tour bus crashing or something of the like. Otherwise, the Metallica today, whom just recently released St. Anger is the same band with that exception..at least from what I know it is. I might be wrong, I do not keeop these things in my mind too well.
Metallica-To Live Is to Die
When a man lies he murders
Some part of the world
These are the pale deaths which
Men miscall their lives
All this I cannot bear
To witness any longer
Cannot the kingdom of salvation
Take me home
That part of the song isn't even sung...it's said with some spiteful indifference. I love that.
