Huh. I usually think of Metallica as a band whose motto should be "Because AC/DC's not bad enough." And the footage of the band—weirdly slow motion—in this vid doesn't do much for me, either. But man, that slide show that makes up the rest of it is haunting. And the song ain't all that bad, either.
