Jedna z nejvýraznějších metalových skupin světa, klasikové tohoto stylu (zpočátku řazeni k odrůdě thrash nebo speed). Sami přiznávají prvotní vliv Black Sabbath. Navíc výborní instrumentalisté. Skupina vzniká v r. 1981 v americkém Norwalku...

Píseň: The View

Interpret:
Metallica
Album:
Lou Reed - LULU
I am a chorus of the voices
That gather up the magnets
Set before me


I attract you and repel you
A science of the heart
And blood and meaning


The coldness of most beauties 
Is a challenge that our youth 
Must quickly conquer


There is no time for guilt
Or second guessing, second guessing
Based on feeling


I am the truth, the beauty
That causes you to cross 
Your sacred boundaries


I have no morals
Some think me cheap
And someone who despises
The normalcy of heartbreak
The purity of love


But I worship the young 
And just formed angel
Who sits upon a pin of lust
Everything else
Bores me


I want to see your suicide
I want to see you give it up
Your life of reason
I want you on the floor
And in a coffin your soul shaking
I want to have you doubting
Every meaning you´ve amassed
Like a fortune


Oh throw it away


For worship someone 
Who actively despises you


For worship someone
Who actively despises you


I am the root 
I am the progress 
I´m the aggressor
I am the tablet
These ten stories


Worship
Worship


Pain and evil have their place
Sitting here beside me
I offer them to you as servants 
Of the gold that you must give


Pain and evil have their place 
Sitting here beside me
And I´ll offer them, I offer them to you
As servants of the gold
That you must give to me


I want to see your suicide
I want to see you give it up, give it up
Your, your life of reason


I want to see you on the floor


And in a coffin, soul shaking
Soul shaking
I want to have you doubting
Every meaning you´ve amassed 
Like a fortune, like a fortune
Throw it away


For worship someone who actively despises you
Who actively despises you


I am the view
I am the tablet
I am the view
I am the tablet
I am all this
I am the root
The progress
The aggressor
I am the tablet
I am the ten stories
I am the tablet
I am
I am
I am 
I am
I am
