Title: For Fans of Enter Sandman. Cool B-Side.
Product review: King Nothing is a cool Metallica song in the style of Enter Sandman. It has that big back-beat with a good vocal rhyme sceme. The guitar solo plays against the riff perfectly and is one of my favorite "heavy" solos from this band. On the downside, the song seems to be performed with too much restraint and it makes me want Metallica to just break free and ROCK like we know they can. This is typical of Metallica in the studio. (Where's the new LIVE album?) Actually, Side 2 IS a live recording--Ain't My Bitch. This one rocks. They perform it faster and more aggressively here than they did on the original studio version (found on Load). There is the occasional "off" note--especially in the vocals--but it is delivered in such a fun way that you just don't care. It makes you remember why you loved Metallica in the first place.
