Bass Teacher REACTS | METALLICA "My Friend Of Misery" - Jason Newsted's Long-Lost INSTRUMENTAL!

➡️ Metallica’s self-titled album released in 1991, often referred to as “The Black Album”, features a track that caught my ear as a teenager sporting a beautiful bass melody written by Jason Newsted. “My Friend Of Misery” was one of my favorite Metallica songs early on, and I later learned that Jason REALLY wanted this to be the album’s instrumental. As a fan, this added a lot of context to things because I adored tracks such as “Orion” and “The Call of Ktulu” from earlier records, and would have LOVED to see that vision realized. In this video, I do some speculation on how the track might have sounded as an instrumental (with a full bass line analysis for Jason's parts), the bass intro's use of pedal tones, how the part was simplified to match the record's stadium-rock stylings, a full breakdown on how to get Jason's thunderous Black Album tone yourself on a Line 6 Helix, and some talk on what gear he REALLY used to record iconic songs such as "Enter Sandman" and "The Unforgiven". Let me know what YOU think in the comments below! ⬛️ 💫
