Description: ARTIST: Metallica TITLE: One LABEL: xxxxxxxx Vinyl: G+ Sleeve: VG Notes: RARE! Official Brazilian pressing and original from 1989. This is the super cool 12" version only released in certain countries. Metallica – "One" 12" SingleReleased in 1989, the One 12" single is a pivotal release from Metallica, featuring one of the band’s most iconic songs. The single was issued to promote the track from their fourth album, ...And Justice for All, and marked a significant moment in their career as it featured Metallica's first-ever music video. The track "One" is a masterwork of storytelling and musical dynamics, blending somber, clean guitar passages with crushing, thrash-driven riffs. Lyrically, it is inspired by Dalton Trumbo’s anti-war novel Johnny Got His Gun, portraying a soldier trapped in his own body after being maimed in combat. James Hetfield's emotionally charged delivery, Kirk Hammett’s searing solos, and Lars Ulrich’s militaristic drumming create a powerful atmosphere. The 12" single often included bonus tracks such as live performances or alternate versions of Metallica’s classics. It is prized by collectors for its artwork, which mirrors the stark, haunting themes of the song. The live B-sides, often featuring earlier material like "Seek & Destroy" or "For Whom the Bell Tolls," provided a snapshot of Metallica's energetic performances at their prime. This single is a cornerstone of Metallica's discography, encapsulating their transition from thrash underground heroes to global metal superstars, thanks to its raw emotional depth and technical brilliance. 50 Similar Artists to Metallica (with an emphasis on their thrash and heavy metal roots)MegadethSlayerAnthraxExodusTestamentOverkillKreatorSodomDestructionSepultura (Beneath the Remains era)AnnihilatorFlotsam and JetsamDeath AngelForbiddenVio-lenceSacred ReichHeathenArtilleryOnslaughtTankardCoronerNuclear AssaultRazorWhiplashExhorderDemolition HammerMorbid SaintDark AngelSadusPossessedObituary (Cause of Death era)Pantera (Cowboys from Hell era)VenomDiamond HeadMercyful FateJudas Priest (Painkiller era)Iron Maiden (Powerslave era)Black Sabbath (Heaven and Hell era)MotörheadAccept (Balls to the Wall era)Iced Earth (Burnt Offerings era)Running WildAnvilAngel WitchSaxon (Denim and Leather era)Helloween (Walls of Jericho era)Gamma RayStormwitchToxikParadox The One 12" single captures Metallica at their most ambitious, marrying storytelling and heaviness to become one of metal’s most enduring classics.
