Metallica - Sad But True

Sad But True by Metallica Song Info

"Sad but True" is a heavy metal song recorded by Metallica for their fifth studio album, Metallica. The song was released as the album's fifth single in mid-1992. It is one of Metallica's first attempts at tuning down guitars, in this case, tuning down to D standard. They would use this tuning later on their cover of "Whiskey in the Jar" from Garage Inc., and would utilize drop C tuning (D standard with the bottom string tuned another full step) on St. Anger. In 2004, Guitar Player listed James Hetfield's tone, most likely produced by an ESP guitar driving a Mesa Boogie amplifier as one of the "50 Greatest Tones of All Time."[1] The lyrical theme of this song is dissociative identity disorder and schizophrenia, inspired by the 1978 Anthony Hopkins film Magic. James Hetfield sings from the point of view of an evil personality.[citation needed] "Sad but True" is one of six singles from Metallica. The song was included on Metallica's live collaboration with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra (conducted by Michael Kamen), entitled S&M, as well as their 1993 box set Live Shit: Binge & Purge.

Amazing album but their earlier stuff is a little bit better

- For many, this was their "first" album.

Hey, anyone remember when Jethro Tull beat Metallica in the grammy's for "best metal album," back in the day? JT was insulted. Metallica was insulted. Everyone knew the system was rigged and BS. All that changed when this album came out. Every metal band musician learned this album. It influenced everyone in some way. Some hated it and swore it's when Metallica "went pop." Some praised it because KH sat downa nd learned some fancy licks from the world's greatest fusion guitar soloist. CONGRATS! YOU CAN NOW PLAY A FEW LICKS LIKE STEVE VAI AND JOE SETRIANI. Did I even SPELL Joe's surname right?! Doesn't matter! It's not all about KH, and it's not about Jason Newstead, and it's not even about Lars a decade prior to painting like a Jackson Pollok ripoff. What matters, here, is that Metallica EVOLVED to the highest level of mix and master, to highest level of lyrical genius, and the highest level of musicality in their song writing. This is the pinnacle, boys and girls. After this, we have Hero of the Day, and then Fuel. Sorry, everybody. So, just remember, this isn't Metallica's first album. It was their last. Give it some love. Oh, and Metallica, hurry up and remaster this, so that my subwoofer falls in love all over again. Thanks, gang.

- Great Album

Awesome album has some real nice rock songs like Enter Sandman but my favorite is Sad But True definitely worth to get

- Great Album

The Black Album is an amazing album. It’s different from their first several albums which were more thrash like but it was a good change that I think brought in more people. The album has no song that is bad. All the songs are great and especially fun to play on guitar if you’re a guitarist.

- GOOD

Awesome good

- Metallica is a great band!

Metallica is awesome! I went to go see them in concert!

- My favorite

Listened to this album a thousand times after Operation . just the beasts under your bed, in your closet, in your head

- Sell-out metal that is still awesome

Yeah.. they’ve changed their sound... a lot. People give this album crap a lot but it’s just them changing up their tone. Even though it’s basically mainstream rock more than it’s metal. There are some good riffs in it and it’s overall decent. Personally not one of my go-to albums when I want to listen to Metallica.

- Video

What’s it sbout

- Tell me, what is wrong with changing sounds?

People who hate on this album, what is wrong with not doing the same thing over and over? If these guys did thrash the entire time it’d get pretty boring after a while. You guys go way over-the-top all the time. Any tweak is a sellout. Any new direction in the slightest is a sellout. You wanna talk sellouts? Check out today’s artists. Taylor Swift. Tried country, didn’t get any fame. Went STRAIGHT to pop with no gradual movement. Suddenly she’s everywhere and has all the money. Even though every one of her songs are just like the other. Imagine Dragons. Gradually started changing their sound until their latest album when they REALLY went for the money. Billie Eilish. Ed Sheeran. Justin Bieber (though he’s always been a sellout and has NEVER made quality music). I can name dozens more of REAL sellouts. Metallica ain’t one of them.

- Black album

My 1st album. Always loved Enter Sandman

- Meh

It’s ok but the reason I’m giving it 3 is because it’s not as good as the 80’s

- Great and catchy

Great songs great tone perfect

- Decent

This was the turning point from thrash to rock. Even though that sounds negative, there are many great songs coming out of this. Enter Sandman, despite being overrated is still a great song, and Wherever I May Roam is my personal favorite on this album with its killer riff. The soft stuff like Unforgiven is OK. And that is what sums up the black album. Not awesome like RTL but not awful like the early 200s. 3 stars

- Metallica’s finest hour

Beginning with Kill Em All, each album was progressively better than the one before. Black was the pinnacle of that run. For Metallica newbies, this is where you start 🔥🏴🔥

- metallica the black album

metallica the black album is an awesome album and is there best they ever done and the black album is an awesome album by metallica

- Overrated and underrated

Tracks like “enter sandman” and “nothing else matters” are very overrated but tracks like “of wolf and man” and “struggle within” are very underrated and this album is really good all around even if it’s not thrash

- ROCKGODENTHUSIAST

THE BEST DEAL FOR THE MONEY—EVER—IN THE HISTORY OF ITUNES

- The Triumphant Evolution Of The KINGS of Thrash Metal 🤴

Everyone thought that Metallica was crazy when they decided to shorten things down for their self titled 5th album; boy were they in for a surprise 😝 😜 💭 I remember watching the creepy music video for the 1st single “Enter Sandman” & ultimately I knew that this legendary Heavy Metal quartet have made it at long last after 10 years, and they did so for the right reasons 🤘 🎵 🎼 🎶

- 🎸🥁

Best Metallica Album

- Metallica

This album is awesome. The best songs are Enter sandman, Nothing else matters, My. Friend of misery and The god that failed, and wherever I may roam.

- Out of the way Megadeth we got a new boy in town

Metallica is the worlds best metal band. Curse you Megadeth fans!!!

- Not thrash

Metallica is the greatest thing to happen to metal but, it’s not as thrash as kill em all or the earlier stuff, but still extremely sick

Definitely the greatest album in Metal history, if not, the greatest of all time!

Excellent

- Classic

metallica will live forever

- my favorite rock album

Lots of people are pointing out that this album is more tame than Metallica’s older music - it isn’t so “thrash” and heavy. Yet it’s become their most iconic album of all time. Personally, I like this style of rock better. It allows you to focus more on the meanings behind the lyrics and the stories being told within the songs. Some of the songs are on the heavier, fast-paced side (“The Struggle Within”) like that of their older music, while some of the songs are slower and more tame. “Nothing Else Matters” reminds me of “Fade To Black” from their earlier album “Ride The Lightning” in the sense that it is calm and haunting. I think every single song on this album is excellent and meaningful. Metallica is the definition of great rock music.

- Amazing

This is an excellent album I love it

- FRICKING AWESOME

NICE

- 🤘

Awesome

- This band is the best

Metallica can do any genre and make it sound good. period. Thrash is the best from them but this album and load are iconic and well made.

- Best band ever. Best album

Best metal album ever. Period.

- Awesome

Stone cold awesome from start to finish u rock Metallica 🎸🎤🎧

- I swear, metallics best!

I love this album, especially Enter Sandman

- Metallica Strikes Again!

My favorite Metallica album besides Master of Puppets, “Enter Sandman” is that classic Metallica feel and sound. A must get for all Metallica fans!

- Awesome album

Great songs from the mighty Metallica
