Metallica - Screaming Suicide (Behind the video)

"I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy! Hello Fellow Freaks! Having a fuckin' blast! I'm sitting on the Metallibus watching Richard Pryor on video (WOW). Styling bus, 8 bunks, bar, jacuzzi, sauna, and tennis court on roof! We're on our way to the gig in Nürnberg. We had to sleep over in Munich cause we couldnt find a hotel in Nurnberg because of some toy makers convention or some shit. The first gig in Zurich, Switzerfond was ok. but no soundcheck abaut 800 people. 2nd gig in Milano, Italy was great, about 1,500 crozy Italian Metallithrashers. Gigs are getting better, we're going down better than Venom. I think their show is good but their boring music shows through. We've got about 20 lights and that's all. Booze is great here. Sick dark beers! How about sending some new issues to Sweet Silence around February 20 when we start recording Ride The Lightning. We saw Accept at Hammersmith was good and Hellion at Marquee they suck. AARGH, James."

To my fellow other Metallica blogs who may be getting a bit...weird about Master of Puppets being in Stranger Things: don't gatekeep. We should welcome all the new fans that want to discover their music and appreciate it
