Metallica - Phantom Lord Lyrics






Sound is ripping through your ears
The deafening sound of metal nears
Your body's waiting for his whips
The taste of leather on your lips

Hear the cry of war
Louder than before
With his sword in hand
To control the land
Crushing metal strikes
On this frightening night
Fall onto your knees
For the Phantom Lord

Victims falling under chains
You hear them crying dying pains
The fist of terror's breaking through
Now there's nothing you can do

Hear the cry of war
Louder than before
With his sword in hand
To control the land
Crushing metal strikes
On this frightening night
Fall onto your knees
For the Phantom Lord

The leather armies have prevailed
The Phantom Lord has never failed
Smoke is lifting from the ground
The rising volume metal sound

Hear the cry of war
Louder than before
With his sword in hand
To control the land
Crushing metal strikes
On this frightening night
Fall onto your knees
For the Phantom Lord

Fall to your knees
And bow to the Phantom Lord

  8. S.... J....

    I want to hear this shit outta a band now. I dont want no slipknot drumming a.d.d bullshit. I dont want no down tuned Korn shit.
    Hey tuning does not make your music heavy assholes its content that makes your music heavy.
    Tuning is superficial. Heavy isn't a low sound mawfuckers Hendrix was heavy as fuck never d tuned.

  9. J.... O....

    Lord Mustaine !!

  10. B.... T....

  14. A.... N....

  15. A.... A....

    It may be an unpopular opinion, but to me, this song is _Kill 'Em All_ 's climax.

  16. L.... D....

    This was my life
    This was my fate
    This was my life
    This was my fate

  17. P.... E....

    Dave kicks ass 🔥🔥

  18. J.... W....

    They walk around like their asses get spanked to no purpose.

    J.... W....

    Insubordination is not a healthy fear response.

  19. m.... 1....

    This song 100 persen wrote by Dave Mustaine,and liric James Hetfield..

  20. k.... ....

    The leather armies have prevailed, the Phantom Lord has never failed!

    Bow to your knees and bow to the Phantom Lord!

  21. P.... R....

    People just listen to this song and stop complaining about Dave Mustain writing the song.

  22. M.... M....

    The most underrated Metallica song ever.

  23. S.... C....

    Awesome 🤘🤘

  24. a.... f....

  25. P.... A....

    Underrated song

    P.... A....

    The Thing That (it) Should Not Be

  26. D.... V....

    I'd please like to know if Cliff used his bass with a Volume Pedal to "control the land" (lol... sorry). I really mean: that intro (similar to a keyboard chord) must be played on the bass guitar, right? First time I did hear it (it was 1993!), I thought to myself: "Geee... it reminds me something by Motörhead..."
    I's really love to know how to play that intro on the guitar. It seems that it is Reverb effect or something, right? Or would it be a Morley Wah-Wah before a Volume Pedal?

  27. S.... C....

    "Sound is ripping through your ears the deafening sound of metal nears!!"

  28. A.... A....

    Long live to Metallica and Dave Mustaine

  29. S.... G....

    KILL 'EM ALL!

    UN-DE-RRA-TED

  33. S.... Z....

    Fuck off with all the dave mustaine comments. God, megadeth fans are annoying

  34. M.... A....

    I imagine Dave Mustaine playing those solos with his red headbanging

    M.... A....

    Except he isn't on this album.

    M.... A....

    MrParkerman6 should’ve been, Hammett is good but not nearly as good as Mustaine

  35. C.... D....

    Estos riffs tienen de apellido mustaine

  36. c.... �....

    2:35 is the real shit only real OGz will trip out to............

  37. V.... ....

    Typical Dave Mustaine - thanks to the god of thrash metal 👑🤘

  39. p.... g....

  40. F.... ....

    Men,i m telling you,James could had been an exellend fantasy or dark fantasy novel writter or even a poem writter for that matter.His lyrics in the spirituall,apocalyptic,death and war related songs are just fucking amazing.Like reading Lovecraft but with heavy metal playing in the backround.And at the time he was pretty young too.Great stuff..

  41. P.... V....

    My preferate of ALL Metallica.

  42. k.... D....

    Diamond head - the prince

  43. w.... w....

    As soon as 2:35 kicks in you know you're hearing something different and special

  44. d.... h....

    Fanboys says: dave drugstaine.

  45. �.... �....

    Sounds like "ace of spades" mötorhead

  46. W.... W....

    With his sword in hand to CONTROL THE LAND!!!

  47. A.... M....

    3:10 Post American world 3:25 Return to hangar

  50. P.... R....

    The best Metallica riff is in this song!

    P.... R....

    @Herbert West what do you mean?

    P.... R....

    @Herbert West now I get it, because it was written by Mustain right?😒

    P.... R....

    @Pavlos Rousiamanis That's right

    P.... R....

    @Herbert West I have a question. Are you here because you like Metal or are you here just to say to everyone that this song is written by Mustain?

    P.... R....

    @Herbert West I think that's a yes

  51. O.... M....

    My favorite song from them, a classic.

    O.... M....

    Your profile name tells everything😂😂

  52. G.... H....

    Prince andrews

  55. e.... b....

    Mustaine baba daşşaklarına gurban

  56. C.... ....

    sounds like gbh

  57. J.... P....

    So much Motorhead on this song

  58. B.... E....

    2:30 *eargasm*

  59. L.... ....

    2:34-3:04 is probably the closest that this entire album comes to making the audience hold up lighters.

  60. A.... F....

    que buen tema

  61. E.... A....

    MUSTAINE IS BETTER GENIUS AND HAVE BETTER COMPOSITIONS THAN HETFIELD AND ULLRICH, AND PLAY BETTER GUITAR SOLOS THAN THE.VULGAR OF HAMMET.

  62. R.... W....

    Dave mustane fuckin legend Nuff Said 🤘

  63. R.... V....

    It sounds like a Metallica, Motorhead and Megadeth fusion.

  64. A.... L....

    2:30 MY GOD how i love that interlude

  65. A.... M....

    Phantom LOL

  66. S.... L....

    Metallica.. All time wicked fave... Take it 2 the grave!

  67. S.... L....

    How many toes did hendrix have...

  68. S.... L....

    Somebody come back with some things..

  69. S.... L....

    Stump u with the knowledge...

  70. S.... L....

    Creeping death riff hammet came up with arioun1980n.thats way ahead buddy😁😁

  71. d.... l....

    That ending

  72. E.... F....

    Cliff 'Em ALL!

  73. A.... V....

    2:18 this lick is used on a song from the justice album

    A.... V....

    Kinda sounds like the solo in "One"

  74. A.... V....

    1:21 - classic lars shitty drumming

    A.... V....

    He may have screwed up a bit on that part, but he more than made up for that in songs like "Fight Fire With Fire" - he is absolutely crazy on that song.

  75. S.... B....

    1:15 Primal Concrete Sledge!

    S.... B....

    Pantera?

  76. J.... W....

    Metallica would've been waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better with Dave Mustaine.

  77. A.... I....

    Mustaine is phantom Lord in this album

  78. P.... C....

    Dave mustaine is GOD

  79. Y.... �....

    Peace Sells But Who's Buying

  80. J.... C....

    I think the melodic part in the middle is one of the best catchy riffs ever created.

  81. R.... D....

    Amazing

  82. M.... F....

    2:30-3:03 Best part

  83. B.... T....

    The slow section gives me blue balls every time it ends. I demand a song with that as one of the main riffs.

    B.... T....

    I think For Whom the Bell Tolls is the closest we'll get. :/

    B.... T....

    "Welcome Home" is close.

  84. G.... B....
