My first encounter with Bardtallica was when they were promoting their second work, Ride Ye The Lightening, at a joust in Galstonbury. They had a different theorbo player back then, an energetic lad whose head shook to and fro. Sadly, he fell and laid as dead when the band's wagon was toppled on the king's highway. May he rest in peace.

"Now don't run too far, kids, stay where we can see you!" When I was a young girl my family went on a tourist trip to Spain. I'd never been to Europe and I was excited to see all the old castles and forts where medieval knights had fought against fearsome dragons. Mostly we just saw gift shops and cramped busy streets. But finally my parents relented to my constant begging and took us to see Peracense. I barely heard my dad's admonition as I ran out of the car and up the hills to the old castle walls. The stones were so old, and I believed I could feel the long-gone inhabitants of those ancient halls all around me. I kept running, so excited to see everything - and then I heard it. A gentle melody echoing down the hills. It sounded like someone playing a guitar, but a little different; this was gentler, more sonorous. I slowed down and perked my ears and followed the music. I came around a corner and that's when I saw him. Up on a hill outside of the castle, leaning against a rock and playing on a medieval lute. He was so far away, but his music rang so close and clear in my ears. It lifted me out of this world and surrounded me with the sights and sounds of a medieval thoroughfare as ghostly visages passed me by along the rampart walls. I heard echoes of voices selling fresh fruit in the market square, and the clatter of swords against shields in the valley below. I saw banners waving atop the ramparts and elegant women dressed in the finest purple linens giggling as they shared stories about their favorite soldiers. The whole castle had come alive, brought back from the dust by the player on top of the hill. "Sara! There you are!" The music stopped. I turned my head in the direction of my dad's voice and saw him coming my way. Hours had passed and the sun was almost setting. "I've been looking all over for you. It's time to go, your brother's been nagging me about dinner for the last hour." I moved to follow my dad to the car, but turned back towards the hill one last time - the musician was gone. Like the banners and the ladies he'd only been a shadow of memories long forgotten by all but the stones of this castle. But when I close my eyes, I can still hear his melody ringing in my heart.

@@pufthemajicdragon So you've told fiction twice now. The worst places in Europe are just as bad as the worst places anywhere else in the world. The US isn't proud of it's crime rates, but it's closer to (or even more safe than) EU countries than you're stating here. Given that the US is bigger than the entire European Union, and only slightly smaller than the entire continent of Europe, it would probably be more fair to compare our individual states to their individual countries. Then you would have some wins and losses on both sides. This fact remains: More people are trying to get into the US than any other place on Earth, by any means necessary. Also, REPORTED crimes per capita can be very misleading. It doesn't factor for conviction rates, type of crime, age of offenders, the laws themselves (which vary heavily), and many other factors. I'm not saying that the US is better than Europe, because I don't make opinionated blanket statements based on cherry-picked numbers. I will say that the US is a better place to be than the way you make it sound.

I wonder what kind of stat boost you get from Bard-Metallica.

I remember hearing about Bardtallica back when I helped invade England with the other Norsemen. It's very interesting that their music is still being played by young bards here in 2023. It's even wilder that Bardtallica is still around and are now going under the name "Metallica"

This breaks my heart yet also makes me happy. My late love had "One" played at her visitation (one of her favorite songs), and she would have loved your cover (we were both D&D geeks). Thank you for this cover, it just feels so much like something she would have loved and I could see her saying it was her Bard's song in our campaigns.

The fact it's got no singing never inhibits the relic sound. Great job!

This is a testament of how great Metallica really is that these “Heavy Metal” songs they’ve written can be played like this and still sound so beautiful!💯

I can imagine living in 1232, having to go to a battle in the morning, knowing I will most likely die, praying in my cold, dark keep while this is playing in the background.

I've spent 15 years doing Renaissance Faires and never heard anything so grand as thy music. Grammercy.

The beginning battle sounds with steel meeting steel was a great touch that could've been forgiven if not included, but I, for one, appreciate it.

Love how it's just like a acoustic version of the song

It was during the story when young Jonathan got his Sword. Still a heartbreaking tale. Tortured in a unfair battle, had his limbs cut, his eyes loss, his voice taken… What was worse that they didn’t kill him. Yet his masters and maidens who aided him refuse to kill him. A beautifully tragic tale. Brings a tear to my eye every time I’m regaled the tale.

A Hymn for all metal heads, for me the best song Metallica ever wrote, absolutely powerful # great performance, dear Bard🎶
