The Unforgiven II
"The Unforgiven" is a power ballad by American heavy metal band Metallica. It was released as the second single from their eponymous fifth album ''Metallica'' (also known as ''The Black Album''). Though one of the slower tracks on the album, its chord progression is distinctly one of the heaviest ballads featured on the album.

The song has since spawned two sequels, in the form of "The Unforgiven II", from the album '' Reload'', and " The Unforgiven III", from the album ''Death Magnetic''. "The Unforgiven" History Lars Ulrich explained that the band wanted to try something new with the idea of a ballad. Instead of the standard melodic verse and heavy chorus – as evidenced on their previous ballads " Fade to Black", "Welcome Home (Sanitarium)" and " One" – the band opted to reverse the dynamic, with heavy, distorted verses and a softer, melodic chorus, played ...
