Fuck yeah!!!! I heard this once, and had it stuck in my head for 6 MONTHS
before i found out which album it was from!!! My _all time_ fave Metallica
song! Who sez they gotta play fast to be heavy?
"Look hard at the darkness
and you will see..."
I gotta go crank this again!

I love "The Small Hours" too. In fact, I think I like almost every
cover Metallica has ever done. I think they're very good at taking
other people's work and making it kick ass.

Have you heard So What? I have it on my copy of GDRR, but its a
bootleg, and I haven't seen it anywhere else, even the real release of
GDRR.. do you know who its origanally by?

I have So What on my copy of Garage Days Re-Revisited too. I also
have it on this album of live covers that Metallica has done called
Total Destruction. There's a track with Metallica playing So What and
also a track with the original band playing it, Anti-Nowhere-League (I
think.) Both tracks are a lot better than the one on GDRR&More.
They're a lot faster and have a lot more energy, although Kirk kind of
messes up in the Metallica version and James forgets some lyrics.
The version by the original band is definitely the best I've heard. I
think this song was definitely meant to be sung by someone with a
British accent :-) . And the singer starts out by saying "Right, we're
gonna due a number they fucked up from us... And they haven't fucking
paid me yet!" That's just awesome.

It's not on the real GDRR, it's the b-side of Sad But True.

That version isn't from Anti-Nowhere League, it's actually Animal (their
singer) playing with Metallica. It's taken from an old Fan Can video,
which also has Am I Evil and Helpless with the original lineup of Diamond
Head.

How many times a day do you answer the phone just to hear someone mispronounce your name, read a script to try to sell you something, and not take no for an answer until the fourth refusal? If you have found a way to deal with these people that is more fun than merely hanging up on them, get in touch! >:)
