We are back with All Nightmare Long from Metallica’s super compressed album Death Magnetic. Do you like palm muting? Good, because this Lovecraft inspired song pulls from a short story called" The Hounds of Tindalos" and it takes us back to Metallica’s roots. The sound and thrash are back,  this tune carries an aggression and power that has been missing from the band for many, many years.

Mandatory Music is back with Metallica’s longest song from 72 seasons, Inamorata. A unique song that offers interesting and doom like flavors, this masterpiece of song writing takes James voice to places of tenderness and sorrow, of regret and pain. Come join us as we unravel the riffs and tones that make up what could very well be Metallica’s last song ever written….or is it.
