They're all bad because Hogan was never in any of the songs.

Well I didn’t see that coming. But it is terrible. The video that is not the song. He does give a lot of good points though Not trying to be a dick or pick a fight, but he really doesn't. He comes across as extremely pretentious and he's nitpicking for the sake of trying to sound like the smartest guy in the room. I could maybe buy into his criticisms more if they were reasonable and if his own personal projects I found on Spotify weren't completely awful. Plus, he's like every shitty YouTube trope rolled into one. Awful thumbnails, stupid clickbait titles like, "TOOL: OVERRATED!??!", Did Bob Dylan SELL OUT!?!?!?!?, "Guitarist Reacts to HILARIOUS band FAILS!", and INCREASING THE DISTORTION AND VOLUME ON HIS VOICE TO EMPHASISE HOW PISSED HE IS ABOUT THIS THING HE IS TALKING ABOUT. Also, let us not forget about inserting random clips for the LOLZ and making sure to say 'f***' a lot so we can be very edgy and cool. Admittedly, I am a diehard Metallica fan, but this was just an awful, cringe-inducing 12 minutes. I am worse off for having wasted 12 minutes of my life on this video. They should play this video in interrogations. Having said all of that, I look forward to bitching about the rest of his list. Can't wait to see him round out the list with Master of Puppets, Orion, and Fight Fire With Fire.

Harvester of Sorrow? Really?
No judgment, tastes are tastes, but that's a surprising one for sure.

The list has basically lost the f***ing plot. I checked in today just to see what the others have been. Let me post them so you don't have to give this asshole's page a view:
6. Metal Militia 5. 2X4 4. My World 3. Murder One 2. End of the Line
I don't even know where to begin. I hate that I am that emotionally invested with this garbage now. This is truly a new, sad low in my life.
- Metal Militia isn't a stone cold classic, but it still kicks ass. Has no business here. - Like Attitude, 2X4 is a fun song. It's definitely not their top 5 worst. The riff in the song kicks ass. - Murder One is their tribute to a legend (and their friend/inspiration) Lemmy. Including it is tacky and, again, it's definitely not top 3 worst. - End of the Line is not their second worst song. I am now convinced homeboy is just pulling songs out of a (backwards) hat and then trying to sound smart when he wastes YouTube space by posting them.
I think the worst thing about this is the comments. Folks asking him to make 'better' versions of these songs makes me want to 'lol' pretty hard. Have they heard this dude's original music? This man is not out-riffing or out-writing Hetfield on any plane of existence.

Is he trying so hard to not just list stuff from St. Anger (I understand Lulu is not allowed) that he is going for clickbait hits?
Harvester of Sorrow? Metal Militia?
No.

I love all the songs on the list so far except Murder One. And even that is just kind of average, not bad.

Let's reflect on this:
This dude is basically saying that Invisible Kid, Shoot Me Again, Thorn Within, Don't Tread on Me, Cure, Temptation, etc. are all better than songs like Harvester of Sorrow and Metal Militia.
I feel like that speaks for itself.

I don't want to say I *enjoy* how annoyed this is making you, but I enjoy it in the sense of having been there with other things, and totally being able to relate to how irksome you find it.

Like I said, I am genuinely ashamed at how riled up I was over all of these videos. This guy is just the dirt worst at whatever he's trying to do.

I feel like that speaks for itself. To be fair to the guy, I don't think this list is in any real order of preference (or lack thereof).
Though Harvester of Sorrow really has no business being on this list even without any order.
