Metallica - Disposable Heroes (If It Was Mixed by Cliff Burton)

Mixed and mastered by Alex Tamulis - the main goal here is for Cliff's bass to stand out as much as possible.

Keeping with the theme of manipulation and powerlessness, the song is about the drafting system, war, and death, explaining the title "Disposable Heroes". The line "back to the front" is said multiple times in the song. The song is the third longest song in the entire album, after "Orion" and "Master of Puppets". It is also interesting to note that the middle section ("Why am I dying?" etc., before and after the guitar solo) is the last place for a long time where Lars Ulrich plays the ride cymbal. Not fond of this particular piece of percussion, Ulrich didn't return to it until "Until It Sleeps".
