│║ Description : ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ After thrash metal milestones such as ôKillÆem ║ │
│║ Allö, ôRide The Lightningö and ôMaster Of ║ │
│║ Puppetsö, more progressive outputs with a few ║ │
│║ groove metal tendencies as on ôàAnd Justice For ║ │
│║ Allö, a commercially flavoured and highly ║ │
│║ successful record with ôMetallicaö, experimental ║ │
│║ southern rock records as on ôLoadö and ôReLoadö, ║ │
│║ a passionate outburst of aggression on ôSt. ║ │
│║ Angerö, a return to the thrash metal roots with ║ │
│║ a modern touch as on ôDeath Magneticö and an ║ │
│║ experimental minimalist concept album with LOU ║ │
│║ REED entitled ôLuluö, the worldÆs most famous ║ │
│║ metal band Metallica tries out something new ║ │
│║ again. This time, itÆs a movie entitled ôThrough ║ │
│║ the Neverö where a weird plot is connected to ║ │
│║ the lyrics of several famous Metallica tracks. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ This record is the soundtrack of this film and ║ │
│║ was recorded live in the Canadian cities of ║ │
│║ Edmonton and Vancouver in August 2012. The funny ║ │
│║ thing with this band is that they didnÆt release ║ │
│║ any live records for many years apart of the ║ │
│║ ôS&Mö project where the band was accompanied by ║ │
│║ the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra conducted ║ │
│║ by Michael Kamen. But during the last five ║ │
│║ years, the band released eight live records on ║ │
│║ DVD or CD. This here is number nine. Even though ║ │
│║ most of the records are great, one really ║ │
│║ doesnÆt need all of these outputs. Some people ║ │
│║ claim that ôThrough the Neverö is the best among ║ │
│║ these live releases. I think this is not true. I ║ │
│║ found ôOrgullo, Pasion Y Gloria - Tres Noches En ║ │
│║ La Ciudad de Mexico" more passionate and the set ║ │
│║ lists of the two ôSix Feet Down Underö EPs ║ │
│║ definitely more appealing. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ This doesnÆt mean that this record is bad. ItÆs ║ │
│║ an energetic and unpolished live document. ║ │
│║ Nothing seems to have been changed on this ║ │
│║ record. You still hear a rather weird bass ║ │
│║ guitar and electric guitar sound in the ║ │
│║ beginning of ôFor Whom the Bell Tollsö, the ║ │
│║ micro problems in the middle of ôRide the ║ │
│║ Lightningö and the sudden sound problems at the ║ │
│║ end of ôEnter Sandmanö. While all of this sounds ║ │
│║ authentic, IÆm asking myself why the band didnÆt ║ │
│║ chose better versions of these songs as they had ║ │
│║ played two nights in Edmonton and even three ║ │
│║ nights in Vancouver where they could have picked ║ │
│║ the best version of each song. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ On the other side, you get blown away by the ║ │
│║ powerful opener ôCreeping Deathö where the crowd ║ │
│║ already goes insane. The live rendition of ôThe ║ │
│║ Memory Remainsö is by far the best version of ║ │
│║ this song as it convinces with a more direct, ║ │
│║ emotional and honest approach. The moving guitar ║ │
│║ introduction makes even a predictable and used ║ │
│║ ballad like ôNothing Else Mattersö sound fresh. ║ │
│║ In addition to this, a few of my favorite ║ │
│║ Metallica songs such as ôOneö or ôWherever I May ║ │
│║ Roamö are also included in excellent renditions ║ │
│║ on here. The band really did a great job. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ The only thing I really didnÆt need is the weird ║ │
│║ live in studio rerecording of ôOrionö that ║ │
│║ doesnÆt equal the original. On the other side, I ║ │
│║ would like to hear such an edgy studio sound on ║ │
│║ the next regular studio record instead of the ║ │
│║ overproduced loudness war on ôDeath Magneticö. I ║ │
│║ might also add that the set list of the Canadian ║ │
│║ shows included a few amazing tracks that didnÆt ║ │
│║ make it on the final record without any ║ │
│║ particular reason such as ôSad But Trueö, ║ │
│║ ôWelcome Home (Sanitarium)ö or ôSeek And ║ │
│║ Destroyö. ItÆs also sad that the band didnÆt ║ │
│║ include a song from each record they have made ║ │
│║ as ôSt. Angerö and ôLuluö are missing and ║ │
│║ despite their negative reputation, both are ║ │
│║ undeniably parts of Metallica's history. ║ │
│║ ║ │
│║ In the end, one doesnÆt really need a new ║ │
│║ Metallica live record or this movie. The ║ │
│║ previous live outputs from all around the world ║ │
│║ were at least as good as the performances on ║ │
│║ here. I prefer to sit at home and get blown away ║ │
│║ by the ôLive Shit: Binge and Purgeö release or ║ │
│║ the already legendary ôThe Big Four: Live from ║ │
│║ Sofia, Bulgariaö output where I even get some ║ │
│║ additional great performances by Anthrax, ║ │
│║ Megadeth and Slayer. This record is only for ║ │
│║ truly faithful fans, those who have been there ║ │
│║ in Edmonton or Vancouver when Metallica played ║ │
│║ there, enthusiastic teenagers discovering the ║ │
│║ metal scene as a popcorn event and die hard ║ │
│║ completionists. ║ │
