Documentary from 2001 where Metallica, Bob Rock, and Randy Staub look back at the making of their biggest selling and most successful album.
This documentary is elsewhere on YouTube, but it’s in multiple parts, so I decided to upload so people can watching it in full.

05:48 you can see that jason wasnt in a good mood that day, he decided to leave while making this documentary
Something tells me jason had already made his exit plans clear at this point.
I loved Kill 'Em All, and Ride the Lightning, absolutely LOVED Master of Puppets, and played along with …And Justice for All over and over again. The black album was the 1st one Metallica released that didn't make me want to sit down and play along to, and when I tried, I found the songs kind of boring to play. It's by no means a bad album, but it definitely went in a direction that I didn't find nearly as interesting musically.
loved master of puppets.
Actually James Justice is good for NOW. Bob rock was actually WRONG. Should have stuck with No one fcks with us….
Get the drums as big as possible? Get the Guitars as big as possible? LOL dude must have never listened to Ride the Lightning. Bob Rock was a decade long disaster for Metallica LOL
The black album was when I stopped listening….awful album. Metallica goes mainstream. And in doing so they lost there old school heavy metal touch.
Still on Billboard 200. 30 years and Running
Y’all know Jason decided to quit the band the day they filmed this right? It’s kinda sad to watch now. September 27, 2000
The day jason say enough…..
9:10 Sandman live sounds awful when they switch to the music video. Ouch!
19:31
10:20 Fockin Lars ahahahaha
The best part of this album….. is the 4 studio releases before it …..
Did I miss the part where they discussed the last 4 songs on the album or am I just that high? The B side of that album was the best part of it. They always have killer B sides though. Usually my favorite part of them.
this was fun to watch. i wish the episode was longer because just under 50 mins is nowhere near enough content fo a record like this.
if only the producers of this show would create additional episodes for our entertainment
00:02:57 Love how Lars implies that the original Sandman riff was really different from the final version. It wasn't – Kirk basically had the whole thing down. It just needed a slight change. Give the man his due, Lars – he wrote your band's (arguably) most famous riff. Geez.
this series, what they celebrate, is the commercial success, like the industry itself, and I don't see it badly, but in any case, this album is not at the level of an album like "master of puppets".
I dont care who had to do with what . But metal beats corporate rock. Any day . Bob is a women. The record To nice for me. F the bass
Love this album, I chose this song 4 years ago for a guitar cover -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXI48Iud-8A
35:11 Kirk slightly fucks up the riff at the very end. It's hardly noticable but humbling.
Most overrated album in the history of metal. An album that only posers can truly appreciate. RIP Metallica.
28:20 hunting season with james
Funny when this album came out a real Metallica fan just cried himself to sleep…. cliff burton rolled over in his grave …METALLICA went mainstream POP definitely a sad time…
49:30 terrorists
34:05 respect
29:59 Jason:that needs to be addressed.
Kirk: put a dress on it?
Why Bob havent made more works with them? Or metallica with him
This album and nevermind by Nirvana changed the genre of music I listened to.
26.00 In my opinion – Hetfield made a mistake seeking singing lessons when he started to lose his voice. His growling vocals are/were his signature.
Interesting that the sound of this video keeps clipping and distorting.
Jason: "James I wanna do a record with this other band"
James: "28:21"
Before Nirvana blew up alternative music sucked and mainstream music was also brutal
Wannana na na na NEA! 27:03
5:06 to 5:32
FUCK NO! Nobody was being a jerk…. you had the best guitar soloist on the market that was so good he got lazy…. okay maybe not lazy but he had gotten so comfortable that he lost his " Metallica hungry"…. well he was pissed off and delivered what Metallica fans expect and more!!! Bam!
3:25 Lars is such a dick sometimes "If i hadn´t changed the Riff, it wouldn´t be so famous"…
I get why Hetfield and Lars had always trouble..

Oh yeah, the supposed "sellout" album though they have been accused of selling out since people first heard FADE TO BLACK on the RTL album waaaaaaaaay back in '84
16:18 hehe…:)
