Metallica Inc.

[Squirrel]

Theyre not gonna play Disposable heros, maybe Dyers Eve, but not 'Heros.

Damage Inc has been played LOADS too.

[superpeer]

[Flynn]

How am I sposed to take a Picture when I don't have a Digital Camera? These pics are from 1996. My senior pictures. Enough said. :p

[wicked18]

What kind of mic does James use in Poor Twisted Me. I have heard the effect on his voice in some spots during the song is made by a harmonica mic like a shure bullet mic, or hohner blues blaster mic. Does anyone know what he used. I want one....

anybody

[Kreator]

How am I sposed to take a Picture when I don't have a Digital Camera? These pics are from 1996. My senior pictures. Enough said. :p
then take one and send them to another mxican :p

[superpeer]

Time to get two people banned. :mad:

[Flynn]

Banned for what? I didn't do anything wrong, I never talk **** to people and rarely cuss. you just have some sort of problem with me. :upset:

[Kreator]

yeah flynn and wicked18

EDIT: you get banned because you're lieing lol i can't spell it

[Flynn]

Lying? :lol: That's good. I don't care ... This is who I am, That's my Picture and I shouldn't have to prove it to post on a Music Forum.

[Kreator]

no that's not you :p

i really like the blackened solo

now you can't ban me anymore superpeer :p

[Flynn]

Ok, lets talk Metallica. You know the intro to Blackened was recorded Backwards? Well I recorded all guitar parts like it shows in the AJFA by Cherry Lane book and it almost sounded exactly like it. It took a long time. Anyways...I went to show a friend what I recorded and the tape started playing backwards, I flipped the tape over and it was playing Blackened Intro Backwards...omg it sounds like an anthem. You gotta hear it baclwards, the original way they recorded it, it sounds eerie. You gotta hear it. I will never forget that.

[Squirrel]

Yeh, someone posted it already in this thread.

BTW the books are EXACT transcriptions.

[Kreator]

that's boring

[Squirrel]

What is ?

[Flynn]

I have been playing guitar for 11 years. I am the only female in my band. When I say it sounded exactly like it it did. Years of Metallica playing Years...

[superpeer]

You're all banned for posting in a Metallica Thread. :mad:

[Kreator]

yeah ;) can you record something?

[Kreator]

You're all banned for posting in a Metallica Thread. :mad:
can you ban yourself too? :p

[Squirrel]

I have been playing guitar for 11 years. I am the only female in my band. When I say it sounded exactly like it it did. Years of Metallica playing Years...

11 years playing Metallica ? didn't you ever want to play anything ... hard ?

[Flynn]

I think I hear whispering at the end of Orion...I have thought that for years...anyone else hear that? Or is it just bass...hrmmmmm










Spiritual eclipse
The gateways are closed for me to seek

In The The night...A veil of stars, watching
My shadow is born from light
The light of the eye, in darkness

[Squirrel]

^ i'll put it on now and check.

[superpeer]

I can't be banned.

[Kreator]

mx can unmod you

[Squirrel]

Yeah, you can.

I cant hear a thing at the end of Orion.

[Flynn]

Cliff pretty much wrote that whole song String-Wise. It's beautiful.
:smoke: Hats off to Cliff Burton

[superpeer]

I am no longer the biggest poster here.


*sigh* :(



I really don't like to do this, but I'll have to delete some posts.

And By some, I mean squirrel's.

[alytee123]

*takes hat off*

cliff was brilliant. He had good stage pressence.

[Kreator]

that's cheating..

[Flynn]

Actually, Music-wise, I like Metallica, But when I seen a picture of Lars Kissing kurk i almost threw up. THAT'S going overboard.

[Squirrel]

I really don't like to do this, but I'll have to delete some posts.

And By some, I mean squirrel's.

Dont you dare :evil:

[Flynn]

Dont you dare :evil:

lol he is joking Squirrel...i hope












Once inside I heard the whispers in the parlour
The killing faces grin
Aware of my final...demise

And I Cried
When she had lied
Her obsession died
It had died...

When Can I take you from this place?
When is a word but a sigh?
When is death our lone beholder?
When do we walk the final steps?
When can we scream instead of whisper?
When is the new beginning and the end of this sad madrigal...?

[Against Miik!]

Shut. Up. Please. Now back to Metallica or close this thread.

[Flynn]

Do you know what the original name of Metallica was before they got signed?



Miik, do you have a Crush on Lindsay Lohan or somethin'?

[hammeroffaces]

how about lindsay lohan instead?

[Misfit_101]

IMO the greatest 'Tallica song has to be Creeping Death!
Its contains all the aspects that make metallica THE greatest metal band: the great intro riff, amazing solo and slow burning chord progression in the bridge/chorus. And of course the lyrics are amazing 'die by my hands i creep across the land killing first born man'. Hopefully james and co. will produce more of these songs on the new album :thumb:

[Mekkalayakay]

Nice pictures Flynn. Too bad I've already seen those on porn sites. Got anymore?




Only Metallica album I own is ...And Justice for All. It isn't bad... I am not a fan of Hetfield's voice though.

[Flynn]

please stop. my pictures aren't on any porn sites. they are my ****ing senior pictures! :upset:

[Against Miik!]

I bet grandpa loved those. I doubt anybody would take there senior pics looking like a whore/

[Mekkalayakay]

Senior pics huh? Why would you post pictures of yourself that are 10 years old?




Superpeer, I will stop spamming here soon, I'm just enjoying owning Flynn. :)

[Flynn]

I would rather have an Avatar of myself not some other BS. That's the way I am, plus they are the only pictures of me on my Computer.

I will stop spamming now.

[Mekkalayakay]

Interesting. You got pictures professionally done as your senior pictures, yet you have them stored on your computer. Nice man.




Superpeer, if necessary, delete my posts in this thread. (once I finish owning Flynn of course)






Point: Any news about Metallica making a new album? (has no idea :upset: )

[Squirrel]

Yeh, going into studio in early 2005; theyve got something like 50 hours of demo tapes to work their way through.

[Against Miik!]

Are we really looking forward to a new album? Do you think they actually know St. Anger sucks?

[Mekkalayakay]

I'm looking forward to a new album. I don't care if it sounds exactly like St. Anger. It's still interesting either way. Mind boggling how they made such a weird transition.

[Po0sH]

Yea i dont care much how it sounds, i just want another tour, so i can see them again, I LOVE YOU METALLICA!!!...not literally of course

[METAL_MASACRE]

i agree im just hoping they do a better job on this next album cuz it semmed like st anger was thrown together with a bunch of rhythm parts and fast drumming. next time i hope theres more solos none th eless im suree well be pleased

[Jimi Haze]

^ Good thinkin :D

But still, i'd rather their next album be a return to form (e.g MOP and RTL) than another St. Anger *yawns*

Put it like this, what would you rather be hearing at a Tallica concert, Master of Puppets or St. Anger ?? :D

[METAL_MASACRE]

I Know They Didnt Even Come To Canada That Much This Year In The North American Tour. Summer Sanitarium Rocked Last Year Anyone Go ???

[METAL_MASACRE]

Exactly Inkybus Mop Or Rtl Would Be So Much Better Than St Anger. The Only Thing I Would Care About Is If They Put Together At Like The Last Minute And Dont Put Any Thought Into It. Example The Black Album Was Not My Favourite But They Really Put Their Heart Into That Album Adn It Sold Sooooo Good.

[Jimi Haze]

They didn't come to England properly either :angry: only Download which i didn't go to!

I think i speak for the British fans in saying that we want them to tour England especially when they managed to tour every other country in europe doing multiple gigs in each country

:confused:

[METAL_MASACRE]

i know how you feel i live in toronto canada wich is one of the biggest places here so i have no clue why they wouldnt wanna be here. have you ever been to a metalica concert yet though??

[METAL_MASACRE]

another thing that seems to bug me is how the always end up in l.a or sandiego or texas in their north american tours

[Jimi Haze]

Unfortunately i havn't been to a Metallica concert yet :( but i WILL lol

[METAL_MASACRE]

best of luck getting to one in engalnd for you and for sure you'll enjoy it the pyrotechnics are awsome.

[Baodegoth]

I'm really looking foward to the new 'tallica cd, i wanna hear what rob has to offer. he has a very interesting history on music. but don't xpect a "return to the roots" they already said they wanted to put those days behind them....but you can also forget another st. anger...they always change from cd to cd so....we'll be waiting for better days...[i don't think st. anger sucks in fact i like it a lot...like all 'tallica cds]. we'll just have to wait!

[superpeer]

I'd like to hear the new one, as well.

[Squirrel]

As always - it'll have controversy :p, but it'll be good nonetheless.

[Po0sH]

^ Good thinkin :D

Put it like this, what would you rather be hearing at a Tallica concert, Master of Puppets or St. Anger ?? :D


Everyone says, I hope for another MoP, or RTL. Guys , thers a 1% chance this will happen. Why? because James isnt fueled by alcohol and just trying to make it into the business to write good stuff. I'd say at best, AT BEST, another black album

[Against Miik!]

Try at best another load or reload.

[-=The_Dude=-]

Try at best another load or reload.
that sounds more like it

[when_im_gone]

those were d a m n good albums. i lhave both of em theres like 3 or 4 filler songs with both combined. I hope for a AJFA album with the black album twist with a pizazz of KEA i wish:upset:

[guitarfrog]

they probably wont return to their classic times
1. james voice is not butt-slashing, head ripping anymore
2. i doubt that rob is better than cliff burton or at least newsted
3. theyre turning into some lazy old farts weho care more about money than music....i wish they could put their heart into it more

[Squirrel]

4th page bump.

At least the thread is a bit alive again.

[Firecracker]

i don't get what's so AMAZING about metallica.

:confused:
I'm from England and I've seen Metallica live three times. Not over the years but twice this year and december last year.

[guitarfrog]

ive noticed that sanitarium and one are very similar

1. they both begin with a soft, accoustic (or clean electric?) intro

2. the verses are accoustic and the choruses are distorted

3. there are 2 verses and 2 choruses

4. after each chorus is sort of a little accoustic solo

5. after the 2nd chorus the rest of the "second" part of the song begins, which is all distorted

6. there is a part with words during the "second" part of the song
(in sanitarium its "fear of living on..." and in one its "darkness, imprisoning me...")

7. after the words is the main solo

8. the song ends with the same riff repeating a few times, only in sanitarium there is also that high-pitched thingy at the very end

i am typing this because i am bored to death

thank you for wasting your time

[guitarfrog]

oh yes, sorry for the dsouble post, but i shall also add

9. theyre both track 4

[TallicaFan4life]

this thread is slowly fading away....... :(

[TallicaChic]

has anyone seen the movie yet?! how good is it? i haven't had time to go see it yet!! grr!

[XIANSPAWN]

anyone who thinks metallica sucks, is ummm... ignorant, because metallica is a bunch of very talented musicians that have had years and years of experience in the industry, I admit that thier old stuff is better than the more recent stuff like Load and The Black Album, mainly because I think all the drinking greatly effected their music, I am not saying those albums I mentioned suck or anything, I think they are great, I just like the older stuff better

[XIANSPAWN]

sorry about the double post but I have to say that we need to keep this thread going, come on, I know there are some more 'tallica fans out there, SO SPEAK UP!!

[Kirk's Puppet]

I'm not too interested with Metallica now. GREATLY overrated.

I'm in love with Children of Bodom.

[The Sandman]

hey, can someone give me a good song by Metallica to learn except for Master of Puppets which i am already learning.

Cheers

[XIANSPAWN]

COB SUCKS!!! mainly because they are so SATANIC, the only thing they ever sing about is being the anti-christ and the devil, I think they need to become less ignorant, and metallica is great, hate St. Anger though because it sucks so much

[XIANSPAWN]

hey, can someone give me a good song by Metallica to learn except for Master of Puppets which i am already learning.

Cheers

try Seek and Destroy, it's pretty easy but very fun to play
also try The Unforgiven, it's also easy but fun

[XIANSPAWN]

dude your ignorant yourself, if you didn't notice I never said anything about their music sucking I just don't like thier stupid lyrics, for example I love the music in the song Hate Me, the lyrics just suck

[XIANSPAWN]

oh and ten year olds don't use big words such as ignorant

[XIANSPAWN]

I mean ignorant as in they don't believe in God, they worship Satan

[XIANSPAWN]

and also I am using ignorant correctly in context, thank you very much

[balistik666]

[QUOTE=XIANSPAWN]and also I am using ignorant correctly in context, thank you very much[/QUOTE

heh... what is up with you saying only the few are good... 90% of metallica songs are %*$Ing great... Reload Load = GREAT albums... and st anger isnt that bad... they are pretty **** great live ...fuel is AS good as MOP.. mop is godly song too.. almost all of their songs are just fantastic

[Squirrel]

I'm in love with Children of Bodom.

Never saw that one coming :rolleyes:

[USAFTONY]

i don't get what's so AMAZING about metallica.

Haha, hermit.


Anyhoo, to attempt be impossibly original on a 235 page post,
anyone ever get to meet and greet, and what was your experience like? Being a tad bit too young (turned 21 this year) to have gone to their old tours, I never got to do such a thing.

Peace,
Tony

[Squirrel]

Welcome to the thread Tony, you seem like a cool guy :)

I havetn met them ever :(, i severely doubt i ever will to, ah well, thats life i guess.

[el_hammett]

Ok, guys, im originally signing up to this forum so that i can request some unique guitar tabs. But im also a great fan of met, and was interested to see people discussing a new album. Would be cool. Anyway, i was thinking, what about S&M two? Wwhat do other met fans think? With songs like Unforgiven, Fade To Black Sanitarium etc, it could be awesome.

If this has already been discussed then dont abuse me, but send me to the page where it has been so. ;)

[Squirrel]

Already done but dont worry - we didnt talk much.

Well now Michael Kamen ( that his name ? ) is dead, the prospects of an S+M2 looks a bit unlikely :(

[el_hammett]

He lol, didnt know mate. That is sad.

[Squirrel]

Yeh, 'tis - although i still think its possible, i reckon if they do another live DVD/video - it'll just be a straightforward lowkey one like CLiff em all or mega planned like Cunning stunts.

[USAFTONY]

Welcome to the thread Tony, you seem like a cool guy :)

Hey thanks, you too

[The Bell Tolls]

i've heard lars say that that the next album will be a little like pink floyd.

[CrAzYmEtaLLiCaFaN]

does anyone else here like the other famous death bands- megadeth, slayer, anthrax? obviously not as good as metallica, *grin*
also i thought st anger was ****E!
favourite met song i think has to be of wolf and man. then trapped under ice and then dont tread on me. black album is so the best!

[Squirrel]

Anthrax, Megadeth and Slayer are NOT death metal.

[chazmaz11]

Done,


I bought Reload a couple of days ago, btw. :thumb:

[Triangle]

Fuel, attitude and Unforgiven 2 are the best songs off that album. Its much better than Load imo.

[Stevie_P]

I have an idea, how bout one of the mods delete this thread. Now here me out, This thread is so anoying. No one knows whats goin on and some one couild like start a new offical metallica thread. :thumb: jsut an idea and dont hate me cuae i'm smart lol :naughty:

I suggested that, apparently no one wanted me to close this.

[Stevie_P]

well its about time some one should

[Mop]

The reason St. Anger isn't as good as it could of been is mainly because it was rushed. Their producer, Bob Rock, wanted to maintain the energy and "raw-ness" of it and so he would give them a time frame to whip out a song. This was probably a bad move on James' part, but since the band had to whip out songs in 30 minutes they made Bob produce the songs in an hour or less or something like that. So, I believe St. Anger could of probably kicked a whole lot of *** if the band members and producer hadn't rushed each other. What do you kids think?

[Prattinator999]

Reload, since I've never heard Load. (a)

[Kreator]

Load

[Squirrel]

I cant decide, i think i'll say - they both have their highs and lows.


So whats your fave cover of theirs ?

[DimebagDarrell]

load

fav cover am ievil and the small hours

[Kickflip_Burrito]

Die Die My Darling, So What or Breadfan

[Squirrel]

But what did he mean by blood and cow cum ? :confused:

[Squirrel]

I think The WAit is brilliant; so much better than origonal.

[Atreyu346]

were can you buy that custom explorer that hetfield has i do not think it is an esp is a lawerence something (not so sure) can someone give me the deatils thanks

[Squirrel]

Its Blackened btw not Blackend ( looking at your title ).

It's a custom so you cant buy one ..

[guitarfrog]

helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, helpless, and.....helpless

[guitarfrog]

So what does everyone prefer, Load or Reload ?

actually its basically the same album...there were too many songs for load so they split it in 2 different ones

[Kickflip_Burrito]

^^ Yeh but which one of the 2 do you prefer

[guitarfrog]

they both stink in my opinion...the only decent song is king nothing -__-

[brokensoulx]

n e one know if they used a different tune on the S&M album? cuase songs like One sound different then the original

[Kickflip_Burrito]

They played One slightly faster but the album overall, its not overly different from the album songs

[Po0sH]

n e one know if they used a different tune on the S&M album? cuase songs like One sound different then the original

i think he means the distortion sounding different

[SonorKen]

Hey Metallica fans, we have had several complaints about people filling this thread with spam. Most of the mods generally don't check this thread as most of you are veteran members that post in here. If you are posting messages that would be considered spam, ie anything not Metallica related, please stop. Thanks, SFK.

[Baodegoth]

So what does everyone prefer, Load or Reload ?

Load. imo it has a "darker atmosphere". ...or not!

Superpeer i agree w/ you 95% of the post in this thread are pure bullsh.it! ...oh well

[Po0sH]

Load I think is better too. It has better material, like better songs.

[Kreator]

are fuel and hero of the day on load? :confused:

[Po0sH]

are fuel and hero of the day on load? :confused:

Fuel = Reload

Hero = Load

[Kreator]

da*m we can't se both be on the same cd :evil:

*points*

[el_hammett]

For me, Load is superior. Great songs like Until it Sleeps, Hero, Bleeding Me. Good blues influnce better riffs. I think Fuel is maybe overated.

[Squirrel]

The really slow riff when it all stops in Bleeding Me is awesome - just James playing that cool riff. Love it :cool:

[el_hammett]

Yeh same. I love the vocals in it too. What do you guys think, the greatest moment in metallicas songs is. For me its prob Unforgiven chorus, MOP interlude solo, sad but true chorus, fade to black intro. So many. Thats just some.

[Squirrel]

You just reminded me, in the end of Sad but True - the way he says *im inside open your eyes ... im you!! *, thats just :cool:

[el_hammett]

Yep, i love the guitar over the top in the chorus. The ringing sort of sound. Thats what make met unique ans magical.

[Squirrel]

Yeh, its realy winding, it seems to *drone*, but in a good way.

I love hte first chord in until it sleeps, the last minute of Ktulu, the bit in Damage inc where james shouts *go!*, hte start of their Mercyful Fate medley ... gah, to many to mention - all the songs have great parts !!

[el_hammett]

Yeh exactly. Hey you know on SM, at the start of master of puppets when lars stands up and pumps the air and moves up and down. That is awesome. Greatest bit on SM along with Sandman solo where kirk whips his hair. Anyway, ill be back another day to talk met.

[Kreator]

i don't like the last minute of ktulu. that's just a bunch of riffs that doesn't fit

[Squirrel]

I love it - its such a contrast to the slow winding chords then all of a sudden ... it all stops.

It makes me feel so weird :(

[Kreator]

and you like feeling weird? :p

[PaUsE36]

i think metallica should dump bob rock...he was only good for one thing, the black album

[Captain Jack Sparrow]

^ I second that thought.

[Kreator]

yeah they should produce their cd. everyone should produce their own cd. no one needs producers..

[superpeer]

Yes, bump.

[M_Hudson]

Lets just face it Metallica are the best

[Kreator]

that's your opinion

[Mekkalayakay]

Some Kind Of Monster will eventually come onto DVD and Rental, right? :( Because I really doubt it will play in Idaho.

[Kreator]

yeah i think so.

[M_Hudson]

that's your opinion

yeah thats my opinion just cos I say there the best dosent mean they are lol

If there was no metallica I wouldnt play guitar, Id love to jam some Tallica with some people!

[Kreator]

it's much kooler to do a real jam :)

[slash89]

I like Kirk's style! He is just so cool when he plays!

[superpeer]

Kirk looks kinda ghey to me. (a)

[Mekkalayakay]

If he shaved his head, grew a bushy mustache, and wore a golden chain around his neck with his chest hair hanging out, then yes, I see what you mean.

[Kreator]

yeah he looked so ghey with short hair and his piercing

[superpeer]

He still looks kinda ghey without his curly hair. :p

[micro5h1t]

I recenlty saw metallica at download glasgow. I have NEVER been so disappointed in my life. It all sounds the same, and its so DULL. The highlight of their set was the fireworks :( Is ther anyone else here who was at download in glasgow green.

PS. korn and slipknot wer also ther :) they kicked ***.

[Riffmeister9]

Kirk is by far better off with his long hair.

[M_Hudson]

Yeah kirk looks best with long hair

[clearvision]

HE still looks like a little b!tch to me :) IS their next album gonna be any good? I think it might, but then again, maybe it wont. DO they need a new bassist?

[SGdudeSG]

why do people flame metallica? there a good band with good music, well thats an opinion but a fact is they are increadibly talented at there inturments

[clearvision]

People flame metallica because they have been a bit poo since the black album. Also Lars was a bit of a cunt with the napster thing. But think about Kirk standing next to Hetfield, who is the man out of them..Hetfield...Kirk looks a whiney be0tch. End of.

[Orion7]

Yeah, but Kirk can shred like a muthaf**** which is what matters.

And have any of you listened to Apocalyptica? Dunno if this has been discussed yet, but they're like a string quartet who does Metallica songs. It's kinda cool...

[playguitar]

It doesn't matter what kirk looks like...or James, or Lars, or Rob, as long as they keep playing well.

[wasted_sacrifice]

[Riffmeister9]

too true :upset: i want the old metallica back playing Master of Puppets and Ride the Lightning




I hate it when people say they want the old Metallica back. I'll tell you a little secret on how to get the old Metallica back, what you do is go grab that greatly loved Master Of Puppets album and put it on. Do you realize how boring it would be if Metallica made the same album over and over again. A lot of people say they want the old Metallica back but if Metallica made the same album over and over again then people probably would be saying something like "Metallica is boring now can't they do something new."

Good for Metallica for constantly trying something new and experimenting. Good for them that they are brave enough to do something without the permission of their fan base and to write the way they see fit. If they keep experimenting there is no doubt in my mind that they will stumble upon something new and great.

I will tell you what, guy:
I'm playing for about a week and a half now. I'm VERY new to guitar(Though not that new to music generally). Now, I took "Frantic", and played it all ****ing through... In some time, I could do it clean. I don't concider writing a song consisting of maby 10 notes a great deal of writing. ****, on "Nothing else matters", one song of their classic albums that is considered "easy", and "Beginner stuff", I've been ****ing struggling for days through, 'till I could do it close to something that sounds as a resemblance of what they have actually done. Now, see the differance? "Frantic", "New Metallica"=3hrs of practice to play fluently. "Nothing Else Matters", a beginner song of the "Classic Metallica"= Something about 3 weeks of practice to be played fluently.

Now, if you know basic math, you would see that claasic metallica is something about AT LEAST(24:3x7x3=24x7=)168 times more proffesional and complicated , not speaking about good-sounding than the "New Metallica".

If you still say that "Classical Metallica"="New Metallica" now, you must've not visited school one day in your whole life. Or you are just a complete jerk.

And for the record, I think that St.Anger wouldn't be that bad of an album if we all didn't know that it was Metallica... I mean, for an average "New Metal" band those days, it can be look upon as one album quite on a level... I mean comparing to Slipknot and Korn and such... ****, god****ingdanm! Look to what level have we degenerated! :upset:

I never said that new Metallica is better because by far it isn't. I completely agree with you on the fact that old classic Metallica is by far more sophisticated and intricate. But one thing you have to understand, yes they may have thrown all of their sophistication out of the window, but you can't expect a band like Metallica who has always kept changing to do something they have already done. It would be absolutely pointless to make another Master Of Puppets CD because they have already done it. Evey album they have made was very different from the last (exception of Load and Reload but they are basically the same album anyways). I'm am perfectly fine with people saying they dislike St. Anger but I just do not like it when they say to go backwards. "There is no u-turn sign in Metallica's road"(paraphrased from Hetfield, Uranium interview May 2003).

[slayer_fan_91]

This may have been discussed already, but...

Am I the only Metallica fan that actually liked St. Anger?

Okay... Here's my list of albums... best to worst (not that they really have a bad album).....

1. Ride the Lightning
2. Master of Puppets
3. ... And Justice For All
4. Kill 'Em All
5. The Black Album
6. St. Anger
7. Load
8. Re-Load

This list does not include live recordings.

Wow an example of a bad post. Quit littering our boards with thoughtless, pointless messages jack***. I would be fine with an anti-metallica post if it was backed up with a decent eplanation but to just say an opinion that is band bashing without reason is dumb. It is almost as bad as when the noobs make "Doesn't rap suck threads".

Sorry. I thought you were just trying to be a ****master and piss off people in this thread.

[bamboomonkey]

I have been arguing a theory of mine with my band and anyone else within proximity whilst I am drunk, so let's see how everyone else takes this...

Metallica for their first five albums were THE groundbreaking band. They helped invent the thrash metal genre, the most brutal music of the time, as even Napalm Death had yet to release 'Scum', they then abandoned the genre and invented their own sound and style, notably on the openly progressive MOP and ...AJFA.

Then they did the unthinkable and took metal into the mainstream, and at the same time brought in an emotional introspection that had not been truly done prior to the Black Album.

However, after this, as most fans will agree, they chased the mainstream with the Load and Reload albums.

My theory is that St. Anger is to a certain extent an evolution of this mainstream chasing. Is it a coincedencethat whilst mimsy rock ruled the roost they released the sonic abortion that is the 'Load'-era, but the minute that heavy metal hits the charts, they feel the need to return to the roots that so many of the current chart toppers claim to have influenced them?

hell maybe it's just me, and if you 'Tallica die hards want to crucify me, I would rather you did it with a sensibe and coherent arguement rather than just bellowing poorly spelt obscenities. Also, let's not have all the jazzers just slagging Metallica because they don't like metal. I would really like just a sensible and friendly debate.

Then we can all talk in clever speak and impress the pants off of any nearby members of the opposite sex.

It might the Garage Days EP which is Metallica covering others.

I got a question for all of the real fans..why does everybody hate Load?? Its one of my favorite albums and one of Metallica's best. I own them all and Load is right up the with the best

dude, i love load and reload. to me, there are three eras of metallica -

1) early days - includes: kill 'em all, ride the lightning, and master of puppets.
2) middle years - and justice for all, black album
3) expiramentation - load, reload, and st. anger.

i admit that the recording process on st. anger, was a little less than to be desired, but it really reminds me of the justice album. like some guy in here said earlier, Lars finally brought out the double bass's again. if u think that all the songs on st. anger sound the same, go check out the justice album. or really, just any album. they mostly have some sort of theme to them.

[swish96]

metallica killed their career when they killed kirk hammets solos, simple as!

[suspect]

Its funny how everyone claims that Hammett's solos suck but when they stop using them you complain.

[\m/Pete\m/]

Good theory, very well thought out. However i do not agree so much with the "mainstream chasing" aspect of it. When Metallica is going to do something its because its what THEY want to do. Metallica knows what metal is..they helped create it...I applaud them for trying somthing else with Load, Reload and St. Anger. Everyone constantly complains about "Old Metallica" and "I want another MOP", but in all reality if Metallica would've released another MOP then people would complian that they lost their creativity and should try something different. With St. Anger, Metallica just wanted to get back in the studio and make music they wanted to make and they did, regardless of what people thought of it. St. Anger may not be the most technical cd of all time, but who are they trying to impress? Everyone knows kirk can solo like a mofo, Lars can drum anything (everyone bashes on lars but the time changes and on/off beat half choke style he has is amazing), and James can write unbelievable music and play very fast riffs while singing (i'll leave rob out since he's fairly new).

I've also always thought this...The only reason people do not like St.Anger is because it says "Metallica" acrossed the top and they arent used to this style from Metallica. But if some up and coming band released St.Anger, people would like it.

[TallicaFan4life]

i saw the movie yesterday and i absolutely loved it aside from what anyone might say its genius and I LOVED IT

i saw the new metallica movie tonight, it was cool. they talk about recording the album and how they felt through it all. ya'll should see it

"There is no u-turn sign in Metallica's road"(paraphrased from Hetfield, Uranium interview May 2003).

OK, man, sorry. Thought you were trying to be some sort of a ****master yourself... I think that all that thing started from Load and ReLoad... Although I do like those albums, when you listen to them after classic Metallica, they suck *** just the same as listening to St.Anger after them, IMO... I mean, Metallica are degenerating instead of (atleast) regenerating, now that they're back on stage... From "Ride the Lightning"(I don't really like "Kill 'Em All"...) to the Black Album, they have been changing styles, but not loosing in all aspects of proffesionality and sound, while when Bob Rock stepped into the picture, they suddenly swaped from the deepest texts and musical compositions of their thrash metal style, to those meaningless, musically empty songs like "Aint My Bitch", or "2x4"... I don't, and never will, believe that they have lost their potential of being a respecful ensamble of musically educated, and developped musicians, with some meaning or atleast sense in their songs, and not "I'm Fran, tic tic tic tic tic toe"!
And I say that, because musically talented people don't "loose" their talent, they're just pushed by some cockasses as Bob Rock, to hide it deep in the closet, and start making money instead of music...
I heared that in Load and ReLoad they were just sort of trying out the rock genere, and then, in St.Anger, Bob has pushed it to that stance, that after Kirk has written a 60 seconds of guitar solo, Lars came up to him, and said "Kirk, your ****ing guitar interrupts my drums"! :upset:
We don't say we want a new "Master of Puppets" album, we say we want a new Metallica album, rather than a Bob Rock album...

[Black Death]

bamboomonkey, for your friendly conversation, look on my post above.

[dave grohl]

yeh bob rock sucks

[RideTheSpiral]

6000th Reply. ;)

[Black Death]

Bump.

[bamboomonkey]

Cheers BlackDeath. Incidentally, has anyone here read The Dirt by Motley Crue? Not a fan of the music as such, but it was a most interesting read, and I believe when they discuss the whole Dr Feelgood era, they to a certain extent accuse Bob Rock of pushing them to change their sound and their outlook from trashy glam-punk to radio rock.

Maybe it's a coincedence that two relatively underground bands should go the same way..

Also, if, and when, I say I want the old Metallica back over the new Metallica, I mean in the whole essence of their lack of fear to constantly push the boundaries, I mean, look at the huge amount of ground they covered in their first five albums (bear in mind the 'Black' album was mostly written before Bob Rock came into the picture):

Kill 'Em All-Four kids creating the most brutal music of the time to a standard not often heard considering their youth (yes I know half of Death Angel were between seven and foetus when they first the scene)

Ride The Lightning-Almost abandoned Thrash already, writing ballads and slow, groove orientated songs instead of 280bpm open E thrash

Master Of Puppets-Writing 8/9 minute long songs when the metal audience mostly demanded 3:30 songs about whiskey and blwjobs of silicone breasted coke fiends

...And Justice For All-Thought provoking and emotional lyrical matter, songs so long that lesser bands would lose all their limbs trying to play them (Title track is nearly ten minutes long!) 'One' shows a little bit of prediliction towards the mainstream, what with reducing song length for the video, but from spanish guitars to the most metal song conclusion in history makes up for it

Metallica/Black Album-complete departure from what they had ever done before, excepting melodic capability only ever hinted at in 'Fade To Black' etc. Brought emotion into the rock arena. Proved to the world that heavymetal wasn't the preserve of satan worshipping jocks with an I.Q. smaller than the number of chords that Poison could play.

The key in all of these albums is innovation, and going somewhere that they hadn't gone before, and that people didn't think they could go to. Everything after that is simply retreading old ideas. Let's face it, without comparisons to everything pre-91, the Load albums and even St. Anger (I suppose) are better than what some bands put out. there are even some genuinely good songs in there too (not including St. Anger, in my opinion at least).

so when I say I want the old Metallica back, I mean I want them to surprise me, and do the things that made them the innovators of the genre that they once were, instead of the cliches of the genre that they are now. I think it is truly sad to see a band that was once the finest without question to a certain extent waste their phenomonal talent by not pushing themselves like we saw them do in the past.

Woah, a massive post. Sorry. Just hope it wasn't too boring.
