"Motorbreath"
BAND: Metallica
ALBUM: Kill 'Em All (Elektra, 1983)
GUITARISTS: James Hetfield, Kirk Hammett
"I love Hammett's lead playing, but Hetfield 's rhythm playing is truly phenomenal. He's the god of chugging riffs,
and 'Motorbreath' is a good example of tight, chunky, galloping speed playing. Man, when I first heard that song, I didn't know what it was! It was so heavy, but real clean. That song really taught me how to play clean, driving rhythms. I don't know any guitarist that can down-pick like Hetfield, and 'Motorbreath' is a prime example of his expertise."
