Here's my weekly song pick for this Friday!
Song: Fade to Black
Album: Ride the Lightning
Artist: Metallica
Release Data: September 30, 1984
I decided to start this series off with this song because it's one of my favorite Metallica songs. I love how the band blends acoustic and electric guitars, which I think is especially impressive to see how it's done live! Kirk's guitar solos complement the acoustic/electric rhythms very well. In addition, the lyrical content is very emotional and impactful, especially for a metal song.
Hope you enjoy!
