[Amnesiac]

In this thread, we post good demos and alternate takes of our favorite songs. Many of these can be found on YouTube, obviously.

The drum solo at 2:55 is fucking heavy.

The acoustic version of normal is amazing. The whole album "We Lost The Skyline" is probably one of my favorite live albums of all times next to some of the The Doors live bootlegs I have.

Really nice version of In This Twilight by Nine Inch Nails of their remix album.

Even thought the original is great with the riff, I find this version to be awesome too. The flute plays the guitar riff in it. That's just too insane.

Found this interesting "jam" version of On the Run. Absolutely nothing like the original.

Demos of Metallica songs aren't especially interesting, but they give some insight into the recording process. This is a take before the lyrics were written.
