Damage Case
Metallica · Garage Inc. (explicit) CD2
All i want is some special care
On the run from some institution
All i want is some constellation
And i can tell by his face
I'm a total disgrace
Put me inside this place
Move over for a damage case
Hey babe, wait a minute, stop
Don't run away, don't call a cop
I ain't looking to victimize you
All i want to do is tantalize you
I can tell by your face
I'm all over this place
And i can tell by your face
Got no time for a damage case
No time, baby!
Hey babe, don't turn away
I'm here tomorrow, gone today
I don't know what you think your game is
I don't care of what your name is
And i can tell by his face
You're all over the place
And i can tell by his face
Move over for a damage case
Get the fuck over man!
[all right!]
Damage Case
Released on the 2003 compilation Garage Inc., 'Damage Case' by Metallica stands as a stark example of the band's evolution into a heavier, more aggressive sound. The track exemplifies the raw energy and technical proficiency that defined their work during the early 2000s, featuring James Hetfield's driving riffs and Lars Ulrich's intense drumming. While the band had previously explored melodic and polished production on albums like ...And Justice for All, this recording reflects a shift toward a grittier, more direct style that would characterize their subsequent output. The song serves as a testament to Metallica's enduring ability to push the boundaries of thrash metal and heavy metal, maintaining their status as a pioneering force in the genre while adapting to new musical landscapes.
