11 Year-Old Girl SLAYS Metallica On “America’s Got Talent”

Holy Freaking Prodigy.

Last week, 11 year-old Maya Neelakatantan took to the “America’s Got Talent” Stage and totally owned her version of Metallica’s “Master of Puppets” on the electric guitar.

Such an unexpected- and totally badass- performance!

She’s 11.

That’s it. 11.

I’m 41 and can maybe bust out 3 chords on my guitars.

What’s really cool is, this is the first time that Metallica gave permission for one of their songs to be performed on a reality TV singing competition.

I don’t think they could have granted that right to a better contestant.

Check out more of what Maya’s got on her YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdJ0KIrFTR6cKV8vfszPaXA

 

Metallica “If Darkness Had a Son”

I’ve been posting a lot of Country stuff lately, so here’s one for all of my rockers.

Metallica just dropped a new single this morning, and of course it will rock your face.

Presenting… “If Darkness Had a Son”:

Damnnnnn… I enjoyed all 7+ minutes of that!  I was feeding my baby when I listened to it for the first time on my phone this morning, and he was all about it, too.

Raising the kid right.

 

Metallica’s new album “72 Seasons” is out April 14th, and let’s just say it’s promising.

Jon Pardi Covering Metallica Because… Why Not?

As you may know, Metallica is celebrating the 30th anniversary of their “Black” album in September with a bunch of re-releases and artists covering some of the biggest hits from the album.  They chose Country star Jon Pardi (Who I just love!) to cover “Wherever I May Roam”. At first, I thought, “Um, really? How is THAT going to work?”

You know what? It does.

 

Jon Pardi can rock, but still keep his Country twang that’s he’s known for.  I know some die-hard rockers will hate it because they are allergic to Country, but if you keep an open mind, I think one can appreciate the effort.

 

I can’t wait for the “Black Album” anniversary, and to hear more renditions of Metallica’s best!
