Metallica: Turn the Page (Official Music Video)

"Turn the Page" is a Bob Seger song, written in 1972 about the lonely grind of a working rock musician's life on the road: the long overnight drives, the highs and hollow lows, the empty hours between shows. Metallica took it on as one of their cover versions, and in their hands it trades Seger's weary late-night glow for something heavier and darker, the ache of the lyric pushed through a wall of distorted guitar and a slow, grinding march of drums.
