ManUNkind: from +Metallica Hardwired … To Self-Destruct
Warning: This video is quite graphic so watch at your own peril
It sounds to me like they've been digging back in their old NWOBHM roots a heck of a lot more than they did for Death Magnetic. This song is quite clearly a nod to Mercyful Fate and some of the death / black metal bands that arose from that, especially the infamous band Mayhem (look them up if you can stomach it).
The tune itself is heavy with a cool groove but doesn't feel "black metallish" at all (ie no double pedal or screaming or drop C). It's almost like, as for the previous video I posted, the video doesn't really relate to the tune much at all but exists in its own artistic way with the music almost being like a soundtrack.
More to come but it's getting late for me now.
