In search of my Rock Time 3 -- Metallica

Iron Maiden 開始,再經過一連串各流派搖滾樂團的洗禮,包含:Van HalenJudas PriestMegadethSlayerSlaughterQueensrycheKissAC/ DCHelloweenDeep PurpleAerosmithLed Zeppelin..,至此,我已經走在 Heavy Metal Hard Rock 相互交錯的路上,時而前進、時而駐足、時而回首:就像初遇 Metallica 的〈Master of Puppets〉及〈...And Justice for All〉,並沒有讓我印象深刻,一直到 1991年讓人驚豔的 The Black Album 才重新提醒我似乎遺漏了這個 Speed (Thrash) Metal 樂團的才華表現。

Metallica, informally known as The Black Album, is the fifth album by the American heavy metal band Metallica, released August 13, 1991 through Elektra Records. The album features songs that are considered today among Metallica's most well-known tracks, with songs such as "Enter Sandman", "The Unforgiven", "Nothing Else Matters", "Wherever I May Roam" and "Sad but True".
It spent four consecutive weeks at number one on Billboard 200. Metallica is the band's best-selling album to date, with over 15 million copies sold in the United States and over 22 million copies worldwide. It is the best-selling album of the SoundScan era. The album was certified 15x Platinum (Diamond) by the RIAA on November 13, 2009.

這張專輯封面很經典,右下角出現一條蛇的圖騰,其實是源自於 Gadsden flag的圖案設計,其含意就是 "Don't Tread on Me" 同樣地也是這張專輯中的一首歌名。
這張專輯有很多首暢銷單曲,我想 “Nothing Else Matters” ”The Unforgiven” 是大家較耳熟能詳,但我選播了一首〈...And Justice for All〉專輯中的 ”To Live Is To Die”,一種重金屬喧嘩中的憂傷,A tribute to former bassist, Cliff Burton.

對他們有一點印像......

從 In search of my Rock Time 1 就能看出來,你該是深入的走進過那份搖滾中高亢,迷茫,又用自己的青春走出來,再回頭看,才能這樣細膩深情的緬懷他們每一位,並在此,寫下「一種重金屬喧嘩中的憂傷」這樣的句子。這也該是搖滾樂的精神吧。

我最初聽到的重金屬是他們。對他的死有印像。好可惜,沒有逃過本命年的命數。

這首歌的本質是悲傷的,那些重金屬製造出來的喧嘩聲響只會逐一裂開,紛紛散落...

離開搖滾樂已經有很長的一段日子,在閱讀普魯斯特的過程中,"IN SEARCH OF LOST TIME" 逐漸成為我生命中一個重要的課題

Thanks for your response.

"The Unforgiven II" is a song performed by Metallica. It was written by James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich and Kirk Hammett and appears on the album ReLoad as a sequel to "The Unforgiven" (which appears on the album Metallica). Both songs have similar musical themes. They both start with the horn taken from For a Few Dollars More. The chord progression during the verses is strikingly similar to the one used in the chorus on "The Unforgiven". Over a decade later, the song was followed by a second sequel, "The Unforgiven III", from the album Death Magnetic.
The song has only been performed once live at the 1997 Billboard Music awards (the band played after they won the Artist of the Year award).
