Dave's been obsessed with Metallica for 40 years and now that he's retiring he decided to cover one of their songs. Awful vocals here. As legendary a career as he has said, Dave is not going out on top with this one.

Is it really a cover when you wrote half the song?

Hetfield, Ulrich, Burton, and Mustaine all have writing credits for this song. I think you're giving Dave too much credit. Metallica did it better anyway. Dave is still bitter and jealous.

I don't think I am, he wrote the main riff and then some. It's Dave's song as much as it is Metallica's. I've never blamed Dave for holding a grudge. The rest of the band treated him like shite when they booted him out.

Imagine being driven enough to make your own incredibly successful metal band after being kicked out of what would become the most successful metal band of all time...
and still holding enough of a grudge 40 years later to cover a song on your final album
I respect what Dave has done musically but he's just a pathetic angry man

Tell us more of how you don’t know this history of Dave, Metallica and the songs he wrote. You know those legendary riffs from Kill and Lightning? Yeah, that’s Dave

How is this really any different than The Mechanix being on the first album?
