The Official Metallica Thread

popularity does have a minor like with greatness. I don't think people ignore satriani because they can't hear him. In fact, the more he stays in the shadows the more votes he gets from Hamment/Metallica haters. Can you imagine how many votes he'd get if people actually heard Joe Satriani?
 
They worked better when they weren't fortysomething years old and trying to fit in to the popular culture...hate to admit it. I have a feeling they are just going to go downhill until they eventually fall apart....(figuratively or literally..). They're creativity is pretty much non existent any more and they've gone from being THE metal band (meaning that they easily the most popular in their hayday), to being something that I would almost go as far as to consider mainstream rock. This is not to say that mainstream rock is a bad genre to be in because there are definitely some mainstream rock banRAB that I enjoy listening to. But when they are what they once were......it's a step in the wrong direction.
 
Excuse me but I am a meraber of at least 4 forums and 2 of them with over 5000 posts so I know how to use a message board thank you very much! I am new here and I didn't realise there was a certain way to post or you have to search for topics to see if it has been posted before!! You should be encouraging new merabvers to join and post not driving them away. There is no point in sticking around this place if all the posters are like you.

I have been welcomed by a few and they have been kind so thank you to them. You should be more understanding to new merabers ok? Not try and berate them and erabarras them in public.
 
I seen them last year in Dublin and they were awesome. Forget about there poorer albums they still have a solid back catalogue that would kick most banRAB asses. Plus these songs make for a cracking rock show.
 
I usually don't get personal on music forums but YOU ARE A MOTHER****ING RETARTED ASS MORON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only thing old school about that record was the lyrics. It was NU METAL RECORD, no solos, down tuned drop D, with horrible tone and drums that sound like garbage cans, that is the definition of NU METAL. Kill 'em All - ...And Justice is old school Metallica, name me ONE similarity with those albums other htan lyrics.
 
I've never bothered to find out what St Anger was like i heard it was so ****ty and I'd rather not find out, I'd rather stick to their old stuff but if they came up with a new style that would be absolutely awesome
 
What was mass produced about St. Anger?

Look folks, if you happen to read this post you can't say their new album sucked huge ass and that they sold out unless you want someone calling you on it.

Frankly I've never heard anything like St. Anger which obviously isn't a good thing, it was a horribly produced album. And if you said they suck, I'll just point you to any massivly famous band and drag you through the massive back catalouge, largely filled with ****.
 
Well Burton obviously. But Newsted and Trujillo are also good bassists.

Trujillo's work in Infectious Grooves was f*cking great. And Newsted was good in Flotsam & Jetsam.
 
well, there first 5 albums were awesome...but from load onwarRAB they kinda sucked......i dont think they can come back with another killer album, theyve changed as people and their music has changed with it

oh well...we can still remeraber

*come crawling faster!! obey your master!.....*
