Created in 1986, Battery is a song about a man who lost the reason, because his wife leaved the house for an another man. Metallica uses five acoustic guitars to play the beginning before the bass and the drum begins. After that, the same guitar finished the song.
Lyrics:
Lashing out the action, returning the reaction
Weak are ripped and torn away
Hypnotizing power, crushing all that cower
Battery is here to stay
Smashing trough the boundaries
Lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the battery
Pounding out aggression
Turns it to obsession
Cannot kill the battery
Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me
Battery
Crushing all deceivers, mashing non delievers
Never ending potency
Hungry violence seeker, feeding off the weaker
Breeding on insanity
Smashing trough the boundaries
Lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the battery
Pounding out aggression
Turns it to obsession
Cannot kill the battery
Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me
Battery
Circle of destruction, hammer comes crushing
Powerhouse of energy
Whipping up a fury, dominating flurry
We create the battery
Smashing trough the boundaries
Lunacy has found me
Cannot stop the battery
Pounding out aggression
Turns it to obsession
Cannot kill the battery
Cannot kill the family
Battery is found in me
Battery

My favorite Metallica's song is Attitude, but Battery is good too. What do you think about "Attitude"?
ReplyDeleteI like this song, but the problem of this song, the drum is not enough loud for listen it, so the guitar is to loud and the sound can be better if they don't have this problem.
