Episode 251 - Deep Cut Dives (Holier Than Thou)

We're back with a new Deep Cut Dives to take a microscopic look at Black Album thrasher, Holier Than Thou. You know, the song Bob Rock thought could be the lead single over Enter Sandman, Sad But True, The Unforgiven, Wherever I May Roam and Nothing Else Matters! All joking aside, once you take a closer look at the riffs, solos, drums, lyrics and composition, it's clear that this tune is a total ripper. Other topics in this episode include album commentaries, Metallica's pop up club shows, coping with the pandemic, DAVE MATTHEWS BAND, Beavis and Butthead, commercials from our childhood, Tool and, somehow, more nutty shenanigans! We hope you enjoy this delicious slice of MUYP pizza!If you think Metal Up Your Podcast has value, please consider taking a brief moment to leave a positive review and subscribe on iTunes  here:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/metal-up-your-podcast-all-things-metallica/id1187775077You can further support the show by becoming a patron.
