Metallica Inc.

[Paranoidd]

Ahhhhhhhhh, pffffffft! No Megadeth can ever get close to the legendary Four Horsemen! I personally do not like Mustaine. He got thrown out of Metallica for good and obvious reasons. When he started his own band, Megadeth, he basically tried copying Metallica. C'mon look at the Megadeth writing style on Megadeth CDs! Its almost an exact copy of Metallica's writing on CDs.

I don't really think he can "copy" metallica when some of their early and best work was written by/in conjunction with him. That was his style, which he brought to Megadeth.

[Steve M.]

Ahhhhhhhhh, pffffffft! No Megadeth can ever get close to the legendary Four Horsemen!

Dude, Mustaine co-wrote Four Horsemen and Hetfield has said in interviews that his writing style is based on Mustaine's

Anyway Metallica > Megadeth

[We_Did_die_young]

I would have to agre on a couple of things sum 41 was the best band on icon( why the hell was that canadain B**** on there sing fuel? must be mtv politics) any... and yeah st. anger wasnt what i was expecting form the boys from sf in a "return" album, it has a few good songs on it(some kind of monster, sweet amber imo), but hopefully the next one will be a la Master of Puppets. I did see them on my Birthday actually my 21 first what a nite that was in Spokane on March 21,2004 it was F***ing awesome godsmack played a great set for about 45 min. then introduced MetallicA on stage and came right in with Blackend, the whole place was moving with headbangers thrashers, they played for 3 hours, left go some picks and some of the gear signed, and went and had a beer one of THE best nites of my life so far....and yeah we saw them a couple days later in seattle

Sum 41 are canadian too.

[Eitri Is Berserk]

According to the So What! book, he used a pick.


http://www.encycmet.com/equipment/cliffeq.shtml

Somehow I doubt you get his sound from a pick.

[Aberrationbass]

Cliff was a 2 fingered plucker

Does anyone no if 'tallica are coming to the Uk anytime soon?

[Ktulu19]

Does anybody besides me here like Mama Said? I agree it may sound country...but please, the song is beautiful!

[Otherside]

They(James&Kirk) said Rob was the first bassist to finger pluck.




...Owned.

[Ktulu19]

True i heard that too...but i do recall seeing Cliff on pictures finger-plucking on concerts...

[Armor O'Malley]

They(James&Kirk) said Rob was the first bassist to finger pluck.




...Owned.

They were obviously too self-involved to notice then because he did finger pick, I'm not sure if he did all the time but just watch Cliff Em All or look at any old live pictures of him and you'll see.

[Ktulu19]

Exactly. Cliff finger-plucked!

[Riva]

Cliff did a hybrid, I think. Half tap, half pick.

[Caedar]

They(James&Kirk) said Rob was the first bassist to finger pluck.




...Owned.


Uh, no. And I quote from "Some Kind of Monster" the movie, Kirk says "We liked Rob (Trujillo). He played the bass with his fingers, which reminded us a lot of Cliff Burton."

[jason01]

does anybody here like "crash course in brain surgery" i like it, its got a catchy riff at the start, its a great song

[icebase]

Metallica are one of the biggest sellouts EVER they are good and everything but once they started to play one of the biggest roles in shutting down napster thats whaen they became sellouts. :upset: now all they are in it is for the money. :upset:

[Otherside]

Uh, no. And I quote from "Some Kind of Monster" the movie, Kirk says "We liked Rob (Trujillo). He played the bass with his fingers, which reminded us a lot of Cliff Burton."



Uh, I'm just telling you what's in the official Metallica Book, So What!, in which they stated that rob was the first one.

[We_Did_die_young]

yeah i know sum 41 are canadain, but i guess you fail to see my point so like a kindergarten student i will have to spell it out for you, she doesnt play any musical instrament, all she does is sing, and she sings about stupid teenage problems that i dont want to hear about anymore, sum 41 plays rock music and plays it pretty good except for For whom the bell tolls...

Wow.. how about you shut the **** up?

Let me spell it out like a pre-schooler to you.
I never said you were wrong in your opinion, I simply pointed out that Sum 41 were Canadian.

[We_Did_die_young]

thanks for the point

[We_Did_die_young]

has anyone else taking advantage of the metallica vault thing that you got if you bought st. anger?

[Shred Danson]

Nope.

[jason01]

[Five Magics]

look at the Megadeth writing style on Megadeth CDs! Its almost an exact copy of Metallica's writing on CDs.

Still, as Metallica always does...THEY WILL COME UP WITH SOMETHING!


Which Megadeth albums have you heard??? I love both bands, but even I know they sound different.


They will come up with something??? Realistically what have Metallica done studio album-wise since 1988???

[Five Magics]

Kerry King: "Whoever told him that he can sing should be shot on the spot!"



yeah, because Tom's voice is any better....

[Paranoidd]

Early Metallica is based on Dave's writing style.

[Five Magics]

Early Metallica is based on Dave's writing style.

Agreed. But in interviews Mustaine has said that he could have easily sounded just like Metallica, but he wanted to do something more,which he did.

[Paranoidd]

I'm not disputing that.

[NirVanaTiC3]

I agree with Paranoidd, but I would like to say that without Cliff's interest in classical music and incorporating that into the band's music, it wouldn't have lasted.

[Paranoidd]

I agree with that as well.

[Vampyre de Mort]

Oh my god, people still buy this! Metallica's "growth" over the years just proves that people will buy into anything as long as it still seems cool. Just cause its Metallica people totally bought into the bllues-country thing they did in the 90's, weren't we about thrash? I'm sorry but you people are easily bought, might as well go out and buy a Garth Brooks cd.

[Kickflip_Burrito]

Shut up, Metallica in the 90's was still good, just not metal. It was different and they wanted to expand their musical accomplishments.

If they really cared about 'looking cool', then they wouldn't have sued Napster would they.

[MetallicA]

Actually heres what i think. Since i know alot about metallca il tell you guys. Metallica was formed by James and Lars. They wrote hit the lights together before Dave came in and before they had Ron. Hit the lights was pretty thrash right. If you actually buy Kill 'em All the only songs Dave even took part in were Horsemen, Jump in the Fire, Phantom Lord and Metal Militia. I think Metallica's sound is based on James's ideas. All that about James saying he's using Dave's ideas is bull.

[hardkor]

I hear that brother, METALLICA RULES!

[Paranoidd]

Yes, they do rule. Especially their older work which was based on Dave's writing style. It's great.

[hardkor]

does anyone know if metallica are coming to big day out in australia? or are all you guys american?

[hardkor]

Anyone met any members of metallica?

[Po0sH]

does anyone know if metallica are coming to big day out in australia? or are all you guys american?
Didn't they just go there?

[Riva]

I don't think Metallica are coming to Big Day out next year.

And early Metallica was based on both James and Dave.

[burtonbassist_101]

Cliff did a hybrid, I think. Half tap, half pick.

my friend said that cliff also slapped a lot... is there any truth in this? i personally have never heard anything about it, but it might be true...

[ivy]

i dunno much about megadeth bt my bro's a huge fan of metallica. i bought him 'rust in peace' coz apparently they sound similar

[Mother]

Hey guys, I just wanted to know which songs in the earlier metallica albums was Dave Mustain responsible for writing??I know he wrote 'The Call of the Ktulu' and 'The Four horsemen', But what else??

[Five Magics]

Hey guys, I just wanted to know which songs in the earlier metallica albums was Dave Mustain responsible for writing??I know he wrote 'The Call of the Ktulu' and 'The Four horsemen', But what else??

The Entire list as follows:

The Four Horsemen
Jump in the Fire
Phantom Lord
Metal Militia

Ride The Lightning
The Call of Ktulu

Leper Messiah

[Mother]

Thanks man....Wow Leper Messiah didnt expect to see that.

[Blanka Flip]

Dude none of you know how many fingers Cliff used to pluck with?

:upset:

Cliff picked with up to 4 fingers on solos. Watch the cliff em' all vhs or dvd. TOns of cliff solos, in which you can get a good grasp of his style.

:wave:

[Blanka Flip]

has anyone else taking advantage of the metallica vault thing that you got if you bought st. anger?

I lost my little piece of paper with the code...So if anyone wants to lend me theirs....That would be uber- appriciated... email me... blankaflip@yahoo.com

Thanks guys!

[jason01]

Does anyone know what lars' recording kit has in it?????

[Ktulu19]

The Entire list as follows:

The Four Horsemen
Jump in the Fire
Phantom Lord
Metal Militia

Ride The Lightning
The Call of Ktulu

Leper Messiah


Leper Messiah was written by Dave?? I don't believe that. What I heard from Dave, was that Leper Messiah uses HIS spider chords...which he invented but he did not say anything about writing the song.

And Sabian...I didn't mean that writing as in lyrics and music...stupid me...what I meant was the "writing style/font/word art" used for the Megadeth logo on the front of their CDs.

[Paranoidd]

Does anyone know what lars' recording kit has in it?????

1 ride cymbal
1 crash cymbal
1 tom
1 bass drum (controlled by computer)
1 trash can snare

That's what he used for St. Anger, at least.

And what about Black Album, Load, Reload, Garage Inc. (if you want to include that) and St. Anger?

[JACKROXYOU]

what about them

Black album has sad but true, nothing else matters, Unforgiven, of wolf and man.

dont forget S&M wasn't a bad live album, but Hetfield is better in studio than live

[Ktulu19]

"St anger-not even considered music"

Dont forget the "lets trash our old stuff" a.k.a. SomeKind of Monster LP

[Armor O'Malley]

Metallica r the best band eva!!! But what iz up wiv all dis nu metal stuff, I can't stand it!! Go back to the classic heavy style!!

This guy has obviously just come from 2000 in a time machine.

[ExitSandman]

I dont get it why not many people like st. anger? If it's because of unique drums, then it's not a problem because uniqueness is good. If you say it's not considered music, you need to get a head check. It's an awesome song. There is much much much worse music in the world today, st anger is one of the best in today's music industry. But I would agree it doesnt compare as good with other metallica's songs.

"unique" drums, I like how you put that. Unfortunately, it still sounds like a trash can, so no, uniqueness is not always good.

[Blanka Flip]

wow....just....wow.

[ExitSandman]

"unique" drums, I like how you put that. Unfortunately, it still sounds like a trash can, so no, uniqueness is not always good.

No Im saying if you give St anger a chance, it's a pretty **** good song. Most people get turned off with those drums, (I did too) but later I got used to it.

I guess trash can is a better way to describe those drums than uniqueness. Is there a reason they used those drums instead of something more normal?

[Paranoidd]

Because Lars is a horrible drummer.

Well, I gave it a chance, and I found it crappy. I was very open minded going into it.

I remember watching TV, hearing that they were going to play the new Metallica song, getting excited, grabbing a beer/chips, relaxing, wide eyed and open minded, and getting about four seconds into it before I said out loud "WHAT THE **** IS THIS CRAP?!"

That's just me though, some people may like odd percussion.

[guitarded_chuck]

This thread is still going? Whoa.

[JACKROXYOU]

I can Hardly believe it myself. as for "Unique drums". piss on it. those drums suck, the lyrics suck, riff, is mediocure at best.

score 0.1 for effort

[CoachJager]

What kills St. Anger was the horrible songs. I mean don't get me wrong, there are some good lyrics, but not down the tracklist like on The Black Album. There is three maybe four songs on there that are solid, and would sound great without the annoying trashcan (anyone who has heard SKOM performed live should agree).

Some Kind Of Monster, St. Anger (solid, would be good if the song didn't stop and start), Unnamed Feeling. Ok 3 songs, with Shoot Me Again and Frantic with a mention.

[JACKROXYOU]

nothing can really save somekind of monster

they redid old stuff and screwed it up.

[JillyBo]

METALLICA? MORE LIKE METALLI****E

[JACKROXYOU]

more like go **** up another thread "Jelly"

[Chu]

Ok 3 songs, with Shoot Me Again and Frantic with a mention.

Serious?!
Tick-tick-tick-tick-tock, or whatever?

[national_chaos_jolliffe]

wohooo metallica!!! they rock!!!

[Blanka Flip]

I speak for many when i say that The Unnamed Feeling was a really good song. The ONLY one on there i enjoy

[hello.com]

What has happened to the classic metallica solos?? They seem to be dead and gone! It is so boring playing the same riff over and over again! Has Kirk got arthiritus or something??? But they're still great!

[hello.com]

What the hell r u doing on this thread then???

[hello.com]

btw that last 1 was for that stupid freak who dissed metallica

[$PIMP PANTHER$]

Hello Im new to this thread so i have one thing to say.....METALLICA IS THE ****!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.................CHEERS :chug:

[$PIMP PANTHER$]

Anyways I dont know if any1 has covered this :confused: & I dont want to find out (knowing that theres over 300 replys) anyways I would have to say ORION is a pretty badass song....probaly my Fav right now.......who agrees?

[Paranoidd]

btw that last 1 was for that stupid freak who dissed metallica

Because it is a discussion thread, not a "lets sit here and suck james' ****" thread.

If you can't deal with people liking or not liking the band, don't bother posting in here, because you'll be very disappointed.

[Paranoidd]

Anyways I dont know if any1 has covered this :confused: & I dont want to find out (knowing that theres over 300 replys) anyways I would have to say ORION is a pretty badass song....probaly my Fav right now.......who agrees?

That's my favorite Metallica song.

Although I must admit I like the Dream Theater cover better.

[Squirrel]

Anyways I dont know if any1 has covered this :confused: & I dont want to find out (knowing that theres over 300 replys) anyways I would have to say ORION is a pretty badass song....probaly my Fav right now.......who agrees?

I dont, i think To live is to Die > Orion.

Thats just counting the instrumentals.

[heinrichkuhn]

Any of you seen 'Some Kind Of Monster' the movie?

[Chu]

That's my favorite Metallica song.

Although I must admit I like the Dream Theater cover better.
Woa! I completely agree with that! I love Dream Theater's cover of the whole album!
Petrucci's little sly guitaring while doing Orion is awesome :)

[slaughteredfirst]

Im seeing metallica in 4 days!

I dont, i think To live is to Die > Orion.

Thats just counting the instrumentals.





I also like To Live Is To Die...very well put together, the intro is like sweet sweet candy to my ears. But, I would still have to say Orion is better but thats just my opinion.

[$PIMP PANTHER$]

That's my favorite Metallica song.

Although I must admit I like the Dream Theater cover better.





Really....I guess ill check that cover out and if I remember ill reply on what I think about it with a :thumb: or a :(

[Zmev]

[Metallicafreak#1]

What the best MetallicA song yall know how to play?

[metal_milita]

one, master of puppets, enter sandman and im almost done learning dyers eve (solo's left). for most of the song i can play both guitar parts, majority of bass parts and most drum parts.
those are my best songs. i can play others also.

[Fernandes Power]

I can play tons really well on bass, probably For whom the bell tolls best, but its my own crazy show-offish version.

By the way, Metallica have written over 60 hours of new stuff on the road and are entering the studio around march to work on stuff...yay :thumb:

[Fernandes Power]

And in response to the earlier arguments about Cliffs finger style, he used up to all four fingers, and would use his index and little finger (like the metal horns thing '\m/') quite a bit...
Kirk did say in the film a number of times that Rob was the 1st to play with his fingers since Cliff (drawing attention to his fingerstyle, not the fact that he played with them) if you watch Cunning Stunts, Jason finger-plucks Seek And Destroy.

[the donut man]

Master of Puppets was nice....

Rob Trujillo looks like Donkey Kong playing bass.

Erm, bump, bump, bump.




I agree with both master of puppets is amazing but the s&m version was a bit weird but rob does looklike donkey kong he is MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Chu]

if you watch Cunning Stunts, Jason finger-plucks Seek And Destroy.
...

[Fernandes Power]

...
And that meant...?

[Chu]

And that meant...?
Ahh you meant in the medley, right?
I was thinking "There's no Seek & Destroy on Cunning Stunts!" but remembered the medley :P

[Fernandes Power]

Lol yea, the setlists kool, but confusing.

[motorbreath53]

What the best MetallicA song yall know how to play?

[JACKROXYOU]

[motorbreath53]

anyone got any good tips on learning to solo!?!?

[Po0sH]

anyone got any good tips on learning to solo!?!?
Break the solo into parts, and learn each part slowly. When i say slowly, i Mean SLOWLY. You gotta get that to sound good, then just build up your speed from there.

[Blanka Flip]

Hey guys... My god... I saw Metallica last night...And my life may never be the same again..It was the greatest show on earth. It was my second time seeing them... But something about this last time was so moving... It was in Nashville...And it was so ****ing amazing... I was wandering, to anyone who has seen them this leg of the tour...has james said anyof things to you guys?

1. "You guys are in serious trouble...We are in a very good mood tonight"
2. " (Your city) YOU-KICK-AS S!!"
3. and lars saying "Nashville...We're ****ing coming back here to you!"

I was just hoping those few things werent something they said to everyone...Because it was a very warming feeling... Well, bottom line... Best dam show I'll ever see... (Until i see them again!)

[slaughteredfirst]

yea I know that they change every gig I was just wondering if they were more older stuff heavy or newer stuff heavy.

You did answer my qustion though so yea.

[Fernandes Power]

The Call Of Ktulu, dude who was at the Nashville gig will be able to tell u that. Theyve been playing that for the past 2 gigs... wooo! Theyll probably play The Unforgiven, Four Horsemen, No Leaf Clover or I Disappear too...Oh, and Fight Fire With Fire and Disposable Heroes... Did any of u hear about the legendary Download Festival gig they played...? I was there :D was meant to meet them, but they couldnt do it... :upset:

James has only been saying that [insert town name here] kicks *** by the way, not any of the other stuff...

[Blanka Flip]

Alright man, thanks. Yeah, they f'ing rocked nashville man... It was undescribable...

Metallica... Your Holier than Thou my friends!

:wave:

[Fernandes Power]

:lol: Ah im well jealous u got to see them dude, how was Ktulu live? Did Rob do any bass solos during the night? You should download it off their site when its up. yay metallica :thumb:

[NailHead]

Rob Trujullio doesn't seem like the type of bassist to throw any solos down. More of a melodic type of player but he fits the band perfectly, I heard very little change

[guitarfrog]

i come before you today to plead some help in my quest to learn "one".

i need to understand how to do the hammer-pull off part at about 1:33

PS: judging by the video, niether of the above 2 look right


get powertab
http://www.power-tab.net <- the program
http://www.powertabs.net <- all of the songs
it helps a lot because it plays the midi of the song while lighting up the little tab numbers

dude when i went rob did this like 5 minute solo full of slapping and a whole buncha other stuff. it was pretty amazing. and then they did nothing else matters so it was even cooler. they kick so much a$$!!! :thumb:

[Lars_ironcobra_doublepedal]

Each alboum has it's one goods. Except St. Anger of course.
For example kill 'em all is thrashin metal, master of puppets has violence.etc

Rob sucked at the concert I went to. He didn't do any bass solos or his ninja $hit.

[ddarko]

first time on the thread. metallica are the greatest band ever! good news as well. in an interview with a bass mag, rob said that the band had been recording new material while on tour! check out www.encycmet.com, a great unofficial 'tallica site

i just watched the video, and kirk's hand never passes the 4th fret, so i dont think thats how its played...unless the video isnt meant to be accurate.


can anyone else help?

Videos arent meant to be accurate, chances are Kirk was making it up, or its a clip from when he was playing a different part of the song... but yea, accuracy isnt necessary in videos, i mean Jason keeps plucking the 5th string in the same song.. which isnt necessary to play the song.

Plus if it sounds right...so what? :smash:

[K-6]

Metallica rocks. My favriot albums by them are Master of Puppets, and S&M. I love all their other albums too. I didn't care for St.Anger much, but I respect that they wanted to do a different style of music. Its always fun to play around with different styles. I hope they go back in their old style of music though, with standard tunning, guitar solos, and great music.

[Joe]

I hope they go back in their old style of music though, with standard tunning, guitar solos, and great music.

speaking of standard tuning and metallica, how many songs do they that either aren't in normal tuning or out of E key???
i kno whiskey in the jar and sad but true are a step lower, but what else?

Which metallica album is the best, cuz I wanna buy 1 for my friend 4 his B'day

[btoto]

Oh $hit !

I thought you wanted the first solo ! fck !

Ok, for the part you want it won't be possible to play the way you hear it on record. I guess there are 2 guitars following each other. That is why it sounds so. Try to play it with someone else and you'll see that.

I play it this way:

2)----3p0------3p0------
3)----------4--------0---

[Armor O'Malley]

speaking of standard tuning and metallica, how many songs do they that either aren't in normal tuning or out of E key???
i kno whiskey in the jar and sad but true are a step lower, but what else?

Most of the Load songs are tuned to Eflat. The God That Failed is also to Eflat. St Anger songs are in DropC. The Thing That Should Not Be is in DropD. I Disappear and No Leaf Clover are to Eflat, and -Human is DropDflat. Think that's about it, discounting covers of course.

[CrashcourseInBrainSurgery]

Metallica r just the best band ever!
until about 10 months ago i only listened to linkin park (i no) but i heard master of puppets and that solo just blew my mind. a couple of days later my friend put eruption by van halen on and he thought that was unbelievable and then ui put on master of puppets and he was blown away by it aswell. now i mostly learn metallica (as i took up guitar shortly after hearing master of puppets) so if anyone could email me (at ToyMach1n3@AOL.com) with any advice on playing metal in general. at the minute i want to play rythym so any advice on how to play like james would be apreciated so much

[btoto]

Which metallica album is the best, cuz I wanna buy 1 for my friend 4 his B'day

It depends on his tastes. If he likes heavy stuff, buy one of these:

KILL 'EM ALL
RIDE THE LIGHTENING
MASTER OF PUPPETS

And Justice For All is kind of hard to dig when you're new to Metallica.

If he likes hard rock kinda stuff, buy him one of these:

METALLICA
LOAD
RELOAD

But I recommend for a new guy into Metallica to start with Kill 'Em All and Garage Inc. :thumb:

[LoveBuzzed]

Kill 'Em All I say

[slaughteredfirst]

dude when i went rob did this like 5 minute solo full of slapping and a whole buncha other stuff. it was pretty amazing. and then they did nothing else matters so it was even cooler. they kick so much a$$!!! :thumb:

yea the solo he did was crazy.

He played a parts of anestisha *sp?* and orion at the Atlanta gig.

It was probly the best concert I have been to in a long time/ever :D

[jackz53]

do you reckon thats right?

[Squirrel]

Most likely; if on powertabs it was rated high/perfect and it sound fine to you, then one would assume its correct.

[drummer/huge metallica fan]

Quote:Did any of u hear about the legendary Download Festival gig they played...? I was there :D was meant to meet them, but they couldnt do it... :upset:

Dude i was there at download. Joey, dave and flemming rule.

[jackz53]

the powertabs version was rated 4.43 out of 5, and i think its right but i just cant seem to get the rythm right...any suggestions?

[Riva]

Ok, I was reading all the sleeves of my CDs, because I really don't have a life. Anyways, I was looking through the Garage Inc. booklet, and I was suprised at how many of my favourite bands are also listed as influences in Metallica's music.

So, my suggestion is that everyone check out at least one of the bands in the Garage Inc. booklet, and then post back here what you thought of them. This will give us a really good outlook on Metallica's growth and style. If you guys are too lazy to look through the Garage Inc. booklet, I'll post the bands mentioned in it later on today.

Buy him Master of Puppets.....
The first album where all the songs were written by Kirk, JAmes, Lars, and Cliff. Mustaine had written songs on their other albums. And it was the last album Cliff was on

[Ktulu19]

I also think "MOP" is the best to really get you to love Metallica as I do. It was the first album I listened to of theirs...and it sucked me in! *headbangs*

[Joe]

Buy him Master of Puppets.....
The first album where all the songs were written by Kirk, JAmes, Lars, and Cliff. Mustaine had written songs on their other albums. And it was the last album Cliff was on

eh, buy him ride the lightning. 7 of the 8 songs were all K,J,L, and C and the only song dave helped on was Ktulu. ride the lightning has amazing guitar and lyrics. it's a great album, IMO metallica's best

[Ktulu19]

eh, buy him ride the lightning. 7 of the 8 songs were all K,J,L, and C and the only song dave helped on was Ktulu. ride the lightning has amazing guitar and lyrics. it's a great album, IMO metallica's best


Sorry man but you're wrong. "RTL" (the song) was also written by Mustaine.(the solo)

[Joe]

if your going to buy two get him either MOP or RTL and then for the new stuff get Garage Inc.

[Joe]

Sorry man but you're wrong. "RTL" (the song) was also written by Mustaine.(the solo)

ah ok, well the best songs IMO are fade to black and for whom the bell tolls and those are two songs to get someone into really liking metallica

[Ktulu19]

ah ok, well the best songs IMO are fade to black and for whom the bell tolls and those are two songs to get someone into really liking metallica


Even though Mustaine wrote "RTL" its still a super-super awesome song! And even "anti-mustaine" people should agree that the solo that he wrote on "RTL" is pure genious!

[Joe]

Even though Mustaine wrote "RTL" its still a super-super awesome song! And even "anti-mustaine" people should agree that the solo that he wrote on "RTL" is pure genious!

oh yea! definitly. that song kicks a$$. but im still glad james, lars, and clff were smart enough to fire him.

[Joe]

so anyways, what's everyone's favorite metallica music video???

i personally like whiskey in the jar...whooooooooooooo lesbos

[s0ldsoul4roknrol]

your guitar part came close, but small details of it are wrong. I have the actual guitar pro tab of it, and if you want i can post the midi file also, but heres what it should be 100%. play your pick near the end of string to give it a real treble-y effect.

[led_zep_luvr]

hey i have been hearing stuff about godsmack playing for about half the show with metallica and that kinda sucks because i hate godsmack.
so for you people that have seen the metallica/godsmack show, please answer these questions
1. Does godsmack play for half of the show?
2. How many times have you seen metallica?
3. What songs do they play for sure, every time?
4. Im gonna see the godsmack/metallica show on nov. 27 2004 at 7 30 pm
at the arrowhead pond in anaheim. have you been their?
5. If so, is that a good place to go for a concert?

[led_zep_luvr]

nevermind, i will just make a new thread

[Metallica_4_Life]

if i post anything already said my bad I only read to page 10 sorry couldn't stand reading 300+ pages. so far this is what i think

St. Anger although nothing like Metallica is still good. Reason why the drums sound bad is they were recorded without mices Lars thought it sounded cool(pretty sure its true forgot where i heard it).

Fav. song- if I had to chose would be creeping death but i love anything before Black

Fav. Solo- Ride the Lightning but I still like Anesthesia(Pulling Teath) Rocks

Fav. Video- One love the strobe lights

A little history of how it started:

Lars and James got together and recorded a few songs with james at vocals, bass, and guitar and of coarse lars at drums. after that james got friend Ron McGovney to play bass and Mustaine to play guitar

picked up Burton in the bay area Mustaine fired Hammit picked up from Exodus Metallica was formed

The name was stolen by Lars. While helping his friend find a name for his band his friend suggested Metallica Lars liked it suggested another name for his friend and kept Metallica for himself

And thats all i have to say about that.

Wow....don't think i've ever seen worse english....anyway, i'd have to say The Unforgiven mostly because of the lyrics. I really don't think the lyrics in The Unforgiven II are good.

[diablo83]

im sick and tired of all these metallica threads. i go on this site at least once a day and i always see a thread regarding metallica..........bottom line, they're done. and for the record they are not all that. you guys act like they are the godfather's of metal. they're sound is so generic. despite all these harsh words, i don't hate them. but i think they are so overrated.

ok so tell em to post in the metallica thread and stop worrying about it

[thriceheadbanger]

I was talkin to my friend the other day and got in a fight over which is a better song. "One" or "Fade to Black". I pesonly thought Fade to black is a better song but he insisted that "One" was. What do you guys think?

[hets]

one!!

[Lazlow]

Fade to Black was a much more personal song, and hence was sung with alot more passion.

I prefer Fade to Black.

[jaymz_is_god]

I prefer Fade to Black. I think One is over-rated, but still a great song.

[hdurdtrioffparol]

i favor fade to black over one

[Chu]

I prefer Fade to Black. I think One is over-rated.
Except I hate One, but it really is overplayed, they should play 2xFade To Black at concerts instead of playing One :thumb:

But everyone here has good reasons.
Fade To Black is a much more personal song (I guess because we can all feel like that sometimes).

[Joe]

I was talkin to my friend the other day and got in a fight over which is a better song. "One" or "Fade to Black". I pesonly thought Fade to black is a better song but he insisted that "One" was. What do you guys think?

fade to black has a lot of lyrical soul. i like the guitar in both. i think fade to black has a better tune. rock on

[The Bell Tolls]

Fade to one obviously....

[btoto]

Anyone's got anything from "No Life Till Leather" demo???

[Metallica_Fiend13]

[btoto]

St.Anger's got 5 very good songs that can easily become classic no matter what their fans say:

1. St.Anger
2. Frantic
3. Dirty Window
4. Invisible Kid
5. Unnamed Feeling

There's nothing wrong with St. Anger. Sure, compared to some of their previous albums it doesn't seem to measure up to their full potential. But musically it's a fairly good album, it's just different from the Metallica that we've all come to know and love.

Wow, there's a lot of newbs that are metallica fans. :) (By the way, I'm not a newb, I had a previous account that got banned because I was stupid :upset: )

[Metallica_Fiend13]

i can say one thing, i've saw metallica twice this past summer, and i know that lar's drums do sound better than they did on the st. anger album, and rob's bass playing gives the newer songs they do play on the tour a very good plus

[LifeIsDandy]

I was talkin to my friend the other day and got in a fight over which is a better song. "One" or "Fade to Black". I pesonly thought Fade to black is a better song but he insisted that "One" was. What do you guys think?

That's a good question. I really like One because of the way it changes moods, from the calm beginning to the intense ending. I also like it because it shows Metallica's knowledge, since this song was based on the book called Johnny Got His Gun. Although Fade to Black is a much more emotional song. I'll have to say it's a tie because I'm unable to make decisions.

Frantic and St. Anger are horrible songs. Tic tock tic tock tic tock tic tock. ****, enough with the tic tock, whip out a solo Kirk.

Yeah. Unfortunately it just doesn't seems as "rough" as it did before. The St. Anger seemed more organized, or something, it's kind of hard to explain.

[led_zep_luvr]

for you guitarists....

what metallica songs can you play? and what woyld be some good 'tallica songs for me to learn

[LifeIsDandy]

Frantic and St. Anger are horrible songs. Tic tock tic tock tic tock tic tock. ****, enough with the tic tock, whip out a solo Kirk.

:lol: I must admit that the lyrics in many of these songs were pretty lame. Like "This house is clean baby, this house is clean" as well as the whole Tic Tock thing.

[s0ldsoul4roknrol]

for you guitarists....

One, Fade to Black, Enter Sandman, Blackened, Nothing else matters, Sad But True. That should keep you busy for now.

[Metallica_Fiend13]

Exactly. Thanks for recognising my sarcasm. :p

[metal_milita]

for you guitarists....

what metallica songs can you play? and what woyld be some good 'tallica songs for me to learn
i've been playing guitar for 10 months now self taught, and thanks to the help of the internet and guitar pro 4, i can play these songs:
GUITAR: one, fade to black (forgot that one earlier), enter sandman, dyers eve (minus beginning of solo), for whom the bell tolls, fight fire with fire (minus solo) master of puppets, call of ktulu (minus solo), unforgiven, james's part in ride the lightning and im trying to learn to live is to die right now. but maybe i can play a few more. i can actually play most of anesthesia by cliff on my guitar

BASS: mop........ fade to black....... one and enter sandman. most of for whom the bell tolls....... actually i can play all the songs jason wrote mostly, but any song that cliff wrote takes a while

DRUMS: All songs except ones that use double bass ex one or dyers eve (i can't kick with 2 legs too fast yet).

i'd say im doing pretty well so far.

[ToRidTheDisease]

Exactly. Thanks for recognising my sarcasm. :p
He meant the same as the poster he quoted.

[Metallica_Fiend13]

Did anyone watch The CMT Outlaws when James made a Guest Appearence?

[Blanka Flip]

I missed it actually...Is it on any websites?

[chuckles the silly piggy]

I can play every single Cliff song on bass
dont bother with jason s a bit boring

[angerydog77]

I've been playing Metallica for a while now and I can play most of thier good songs like Master of Puppets, Enter Sandman, Whiskey in the Jar,etc.

[We_Did_die_young]

jason's basslines arent exactly boring, my friend of mysery is a badass bass line/intro, holier than thou is pretty bad too

[Metallica_Fiend13]

CMT's been playing re-runs of it i know, i don't know if it's been on any websites

[chuckles the silly piggy]

the other good jason line is king nothing which is piss easy along with all his other stuff.if you want a ****ing hard bass line try Call Of Ktulu.

[Metallica_Fiend13]

i like jason's bass solos he does on the dvd's, though a good majority of them are medleys, like on live sh*t, san diego, he does the My Friend of Misery line, then goes crazy into that fast thing he does, then goes into the bass solo of orion and etc...then on Cunning Stunts, that bass/guitar doodle, he does that little solo of his to start with, then my friend of misery, then kirk joins in, then they go into the intro of Sanitarium, then jump into Nothing Else Matters...but basically "My Friend of Misery" is his best work, Cliff's stuff was a lot better, thats a no brainer, but Jason had his great moments

[Metallica_Fiend13]

on bass i mostly learn Cliff songs, isn't much to Jason songs, i like My Friend of Misery, King Nothing, God That Failed, and Devil's Dance of Jason's, thats about all the exciting songs with Jason to play on bass all with Cliff are fun fun fun

[Metallica_Fiend13]

if you want a ****ing hard bass line try Call Of Ktulu.

agreed :thumb:

[JACKROXYOU]

Yes that was amazing.

Metallica came to Houstan's Toyota Center and rocked. Two hours of pure Metallica.

Best part they only played 2 St. Anger songs. No for whom the bells toll. ****

Seek and destroy, Dirty window, Master of the Puppets, One, Sanitarium, Nothing Else Matters, Battery, Creeping Death, whereever I may roam, and a couple others I cant remember the others cause a bunch of stoners were smoken up a storm.

That's awesome, too bad I live no where near there, so I couldn't go and see it. :upset:

[Mister_Che]

(my first post ever)

I've learned mostly Cliff's stuff (Orion mainly), although I'd still pick Jason over Trujillo anyday.

[LifeIsDandy]

my first post ever

Welcome! :wave:

[We_Did_die_young]

cliff was the better bassist hands down, but jason paid his dues and hey when i saw then when jason was the bassist the guy wouldnt stand still jumping around banging his head the guy always gave 110% during a show, i cant say the same for cliff b/c i never got the honor to watch him, but maybe he did the same, ive seen tidbits of cliff'em all and he does look like he did the same, rob trujillo, is badass on stage too, i say them spokane march 21 04, and he gets down with the best of them lots of energy. agreed call of ktulu is a pretty hard bassline, but it sounds so badass

[Arucard]

i have RTL and think its a masterpiece of thrash, what do i buy next.

[PoliticallyIncorrectMetalhead]

And Justice for All, Kill em all, Master of Puppets. Anyone of those.

[j_p]

i liked metallica's older stuff better than there new (who doesn't?), but my favorite song out of all would be master of puppets.

i like how it goes from there normal stuff in that song, to nice and soft and slow, then to unique solo's

i also like enter sandman, its a preety well balanced song.

lets try to keep this thread alive
hey liketoplaydrums10111 i totally agree with u about the old stuff better. I really like the ride the lightning album. The only thing i dont like about kill em all is its sort of more hardrockish than the heavy ****. i just started playing the guitar and enter sandman was the first thing i learned how to play. all of it. even the solo. my favourite song is probably puppetz as well. i just figured out the solo :thumb:

[Kickflip_Burrito]

Kill 'Em All, Master of Puppets and Black Album for sure, no question about it.

[crossface]

I just watch the Metallica:Cunning stunts dvd... and it was good but they skipped some of my favorite solos(mop). Ive got a question, is the whole scene when they were playing Am I evil scripted???? Im talking about the part where some guys went up the stage and went crazy and destroyed the set. is it scripted?

[Mister_Che]

yep, they call it the "destruction scene"

2 of the tech guys talk about it in the special features.

[guitarfrog]

my favorites:
kill em all: jump in the fire
ride the lightning: escape
master of puppets: orion
justice for all: one
metallica: wherever i may roam
load/reload: king nothing
garage inc: helpless

[metallicafan501]

i have RTL and think its a masterpiece of thrash, what do i buy next.
