 not bad at all Jul 13, 2008
Its defn different from the year and half.... video.I had the same apprehensions before I got it coz I own that video and did not want to see the same footage.However this video is a retrospective look into the making of the album where the band discuss their apprehensions - in hindsight while making the album.The 11/2 years video captures an entirely different perspective.The most poignant portion of this video to me,is where Newsted introduces the bass line to My friend of Misery and he seems to be nearly choking when he says that this intro was his first contribution to the bands music in the 5 years he was with them.It was defn a sign of things to come.The DVD is worth the purchase if you are a hardcore Metallica fan.

An interesting watch Feb 15, 2006
Was really wanting some actual full length music videos allong with this but it did not deliver. When the cover says "cuts from" thats what they mean. It was interesting to watch to see how the band started with thir first album and how they progressed. Seems like I would have watched this on "Behind the Music". Man I wish they had included the actual music videos on this. Why did they classify this as UMD Music when all it is is a documentary.
So all you get is the main feature running about 40 something minutes going over the five singles from the Black Album. Enter Sandman, Sad but True, The Unforgiven, Wherever I may roam, and Nothing Else Matters. And it has Im guessing another 40 something minutes in some additional interviews.
It wouldn't have taken much to put the actual music or even the video's on this UMD MUSIC selection.
Kinda dissapointed but still an innteresting watch. You do get to hear some of the origional riffs and clips of the progression of the making of the songs.

 One Of The Best Music DVDS On The Market Oct 31, 2004
Metallica's self-titled DVD on one of their albums, which is known as "The Black Album"( album is actually self-titled, but because the front and back of the album is all black, it earned it's reputation as "The Black Album")is one of the best music DVDS on the market. This DVD goes behind the scenes into the making of the album; there are interviews with band members James Hetfield, Jason Newsted, Kirk Hammet, Lars Ulrich, and producer Bob Rock. You get to listen to previously unheard demo recordings, and the five singles off of "The Black Album" are on this DVD: "Enter Sandman", "Holier Than Thou", "Sad But True", "The Unforgiven", and "Nothing Else Matters". I also enjoyed the exteneded interviews for the DVD, and it was very interesting when James Hetfield told the behind the scenes stories for when he wrote "Nothing Else Matters" and "The God That Failed". Hetfield also talked about how he and the band members in Metallica faced difficulties in their childhoods( parents getting divorced, family members dying)and how music was what guided them through all the tough times in their childhoods. If you enjoyed "The Black Album", you definitely don't want to miss the DVD.
