Metallica - The Unforgiven II - Remastered - 1080p

Metallica - The Unforgiven II - Remastered - Full HD - 1080p : “The Unforgiven“ is a power ballad by American heavy metal band Metallica. It was released as the second single from their eponymous fifth album Metallica (also known as The Black Album). Though one of the slower tracks on the album, its chord progression is distinctly one of the heaviest ballads featured on the album. The song deals with the theme of the struggle of the individual against the efforts of those who would subjugate him. The song has since spawned two sequels, in the form of “The Unforgiven II“, from the album Reload, and “The Unforgiven III“, from the album Death Magnetic. “The Unforgiven II“ was written by James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich and Kirk Hammett and appears on the album Reload as a sequel to “The Unforgiven.“ Both songs have similar musical themes. The chord progression during the verses is strikingly similar to the one used in the chorus on “The Unforgiven“. “The Unforgiven II“ video is similar to the first video’s story, though a tunnel is substituted for the blank room shown in the first video. It begins with a shirtless boy stuck in a wall, showing the wall breaking piece by piece as the boy ages. As the video progresses, it becomes more abstract, with waves crashing on the other side of the wall and rupturing it, making the wall smaller each time. The final scene shows the remaining piece of the wall turning into a woman, with the now older boy’s hand still embedded in her back. The boy opens his hand, allowing the woman to take the key out of his hand and allowing him to take his hand out of the wall. “The Unforgiven II“ was first performed live on December 8, 1997, at that year’s Billboard Music Awards. The song was not played in a live setting again for the next 17 years, until Metallica re-introduced it into the setlist for their 2015 European festival tours. Following its performance in Gelsenkirchen, Germany’s Rock Im Revier festival, Metallica then included it in the setlists of their next three shows. (Wikipedia)
