Hi, I was just wondering how difficult you would rate Sanatarium. Beginner, intermediate, experienced, insane ect. ???? I just need an objective opinion. Please don't bother with a wise-*** reply. :smoke:

[JACKROXYOU]

[JACKROXYOU]

[timmccarty143]

3. Don't Tread On Me
4. the Unforgiven
5. Struggle Within (just for the solo)

All the rest in the album = $hit for me ! Sandman being the biggest one !

[xtreme_skatah]

I reckon Black Album is too overrated. It's not that good of an album. IT's got some good songs but I wouldn't rate it as high and RTL.

[Joe]

5) Nothing Else Matters

[Joe]

I reckon Black Album is too overrated. It's not that good of an album. IT's got some good songs but I wouldn't rate it as high and RTL.

oh of course not. it has metallica's greatest hit ever but it's nowhere near as good as RTL or MOP

[Chu]

It's definately not a good album, RTL, MoP and KeA **** all over it.

[=-fukifiknow-=]

i've started to get really bored of metallica, i really like megadeth... i just cant stand the same solo over and over and over... kirk hammet is really a horrible guitarist in my oppinion... satriani obviously put all his effort into vai and none into hammet..
BRING BACK MUSTAINE, HE IS OFF THE DRUGS...

[Metal_Dude333]

I haven't read the whole thread but it seems that most of you don't seem to mention the "Reload" and "St. Anger" albums
The Reload album has got some great songs like The Memory Remains, Devils Dance and Prince Charming!
Well St. Anger isnt that great but i really like Dirty Window, sweet amber, some kind of monster and the unnamed feeling.
My fave songs are:
1.Harvester of Sorrow
2.Wherever i may roam
3.Master of Puppets
4.Battery
5.and Justice for All
6.One
7.Dyers eve
8.Holier than thou
9.I disappear
10.Lepper Messiah

[\m/Pete\m/]

I hadnt listend to it in a while but I think that "Shortest Straw" probably has one the coolest solos...and not just for Metallica but ever

[Mycateatsitsturds]

Metallica sucks ballz homie g east coast PLAYAZ! Me and my homiez do crack ereyday biotch! HAHAHAH Fosizzle my nizzle!

[metal_milita]

3.fight fire with fire
4.ride the lightning
5. call of ktulu
6.trapped under ice
7. creeping death
8. escape

God That Failed

3. kill em all
4. ...and justice for all
5. metallica (black album)
6. reload
7. st. anger
8. load

[led_zep_luvr]

i know everyone will make fun of me now for not ranking st. anger as the worst album

[allyharp]

all of you guys that have been to a metallica concert, what would you say their most electrifying song is, where they get into it the most
I'm not sure what song I'd say they get into most, Master of Puppets is always a good one, but you cannot describe the feeling when you hear the Ecstacy of Gold at your first Metallica gig.

[LiZZySkYnRd7^]

it is fairly simple

it was the first song i learned and i teach it to people who don't play

its a beginner :thumb:

it will also make you better

lol......its all I know how to play, the harmonics on the intro to sanetarium. The point is, I look and feel cool playing it.

[Burdcheese]

i know everyone will make fun of me now for not ranking st. anger as the worst album

Consider yourself made fun of.

Right - mine:

S&M
Master of Puppets
Ride the Lightning
The Black Album
Load
...And Justice For All (Only this high because of One)
Garage Inc.
Reload
St. Anger

I don't have Kill 'Em All - so I won't rank it

[DisposableHeroes]

you cannot describe the feeling when you hear the Ecstacy of Gold at your first Metallica gig.

your not wrong there :thumb:

[Squirrel]

Bump.

[Burdcheese]

The Ecstasy of Gold is simply put one of the best pieces of music ever written.

I still remember the first time I heard it in the Good, the Bad and the Ugly with Tuco running round the graveyard :thumb:

[munky_magik]

Bump.

holy smokes! :eek:
You post in here?

And on topic, Esctasy Of Gold is a great intro.

[Burdcheese]

holy smokes! :eek:
You post in here?

And on topic, Esctasy Of Gold is a great intro.

He just does it to maintain his coveted top-poster status (I'm 4th :()

[DisposableHeroes]

where have you seen Metallica Burdcheese? I saw them in Earl's court in December '03 and at Dowload 2004

[Squirrel]

holy smokes! :eek:
You post in here?

And on topic, Esctasy Of Gold is a great intro.

I have the most posts in this thread :cool:

[munky_magik]

I have the most posts in this thread :cool:

seriously? I don't look in here very often, but when I have I've managed to miss every single one of your posts.
Now that is an achievment :p

[Squirrel]

:lol:

They're not really worth reading anyway :p

[Burdcheese]

where have you seen Metallica Burdcheese? I saw them in Earl's court in December '03 and at Dowload 2004

Tragically - I haven't.

Because of evil circumstances I missed both of those. I remain pissed off about that (especially Download - ****ing maths exam the day after). Also my plans to go over either to Dublin or Paris to see them fell through for being too expensive

I will however go and see them next time they're here whatever happens (Though I'll probably miss Download again)

[munky_magik]

*saw them at Reading '03*
they were one of about 3 bands that I actually managed to go and see

[DisposableHeroes]

ah that sucks, well they are bound to play this year what with recording a new album and all. I only saw them at Earl's court out of sheer luck

[munky_magik]

I didn't go but I've got a shirt from the Earl's court gig :)

[DisposableHeroes]

how'd you manage that?

[munky_magik]

My bro got one for me

[DisposableHeroes]

they played a good set that night, Fight Fire With Fire \m/

[munky_magik]

yea, well I wouldn't really know now would I? :p

[led_zep_luvr]

they played a good set that night, Fight Fire With Fire \m/


wow! i never knew they played that song live.

[Burdcheese]

I definately hope they play Dyers Eve when I do eventually see them

[led_zep_luvr]

I definately hope they play Dyers Eve when I do eventually see them


you have never seen them?

[Burdcheese]

See above (# 10 038)

[led_zep_luvr]

o that sucks. well when you do seen them i hope they play the songs you want them to.

i only saw them once nov. 27 2004, but i hope to see them again if they tour with their new album

[Burdcheese]

Anyone know what Junglessence and Melbourne sound like?
I've seen them on set-lists for madly-in-anger

[led_zep_luvr]

i know melbourne is just a solo that kirk does usind lots of whammy, but i don't know what junglessscence is

[Burdcheese]

Hmm... interesting.
Thanks

[KillemAllforOne83]

I've seen Melbourne. It's a slow calssical solo by Kirk..Hopfully that helped you.

[DisposableHeroes]

i think i have an MP3 of Jungleessence, its Rob's bass solo. Its really funk sounding, but he does a bit of Orion at the end

[KillemAllforOne83]

Junglessence is Robs Bass solo.. and the solo kirk uses lots is the Kirk Doodles.. he useally does at the end of the third song..

[led_zep_luvr]

i think i have an MP3 of Jungleessence, its Rob's bass solo. Its really funk sounding, but he does a bit of Orion at the end

/thread.

[munky_magik]

/thread.

really? you picked this thread for that?

anyway to avoid mindless spam, anyone have any news on when the New album is due out? and what're your thoguhts on what it'll be like?
I heard somewhere that it's meant to be more thrashy due to them having to play that stuff for warming up and they wrote heavier stuff as a result.

[Squirrel]

Recording is this month/ February apparently, theyve also got hours of demo tapes to go through cause they tape their pre show jam warmups.

[Burdcheese]

/thread

Never!!


I heard somewhere that it's meant to be more thrashy due to them having to play that stuff for warming up and they wrote heavier stuff as a result.

This is all good news - I've heard similar.
Though apart from when they're recording it (Jan/Feb I think - its mentioned in this thread somewhere) I know nothing more about it.

edit: what Squirrel said

[DisposableHeroes]

I heard some pretty exciting news about the album from Rob:

"We already have over 50 hours of song ideas recorded," he said. "There's some speed, some of it is kind of raw and funky, most of it has that heavy groove which I think is a stand-out ingredient for Metallica. . . . James is throwin' down some killer riffs . . . and whatever it is man, it's gonna be heavy. We're getting really excited about doing an album as this team."

[Burdcheese]

If this isn't a St. Angeresque lie, then 2005 should be pretty sweet album-wise

[munky_magik]

Sounds good. I wonder if they're just gonna stick with the classic/Overdone 'Tallica vibe, or Try and develop their sound and ideas a bit.

[Squirrel]

Well Metallica have always changed from album to album, so either way it'll be different.

I mean with Robs technical ability, mixed with their rawer sound and the fact theyve changed after St Anger, it'll certainly be something new.

[Burdcheese]

And we might as well be optimistic about it.
Hopefully, they'll have learned from their mistakes with the last one. Surely they don't live in such a bubble that they think it was "well-received"

[Squirrel]

Hell no, i think they got very tense with the flak they got for it; Kirk lashing out about the lack of guitar solos etc

[DisposableHeroes]

I do respect how they have always done something new, regardless of genre. But it would be nice for them to return to a thrashier sound

[munky_magik]

I don't think it being well-recieved bothers them entirely. Obviously I think the fact that it dissapointed so fans did upset them but 'Tallica have pretty much always done what they want. And if they involves continuing down the St. Anger vein then I imagine that's what they will do.

[DisposableHeroes]

Re-learning the old songs must have inspired some old school riffs, and i'm pretty sure Rob will come up with some heavy stuff

[Otherside]

Rob didn't say anything about solos in that statement. Bad omen.

[Burdcheese]

Not necessarily - guitar solos aren't Rob's area.
I'm sure Kirk will make sure they're included this time.

[Squirrel]

Rob didnt mention vocals or drums, omg that means theres no drums or vocals on the new album.

[Otherside]

Rob didnt mention vocals or drums, omg that means theres no drums or vocals on the new album.


Wow, your sarcasm really failed to work there. You should try and improve on that.

Not necessarily - guitar solos aren't Rob's area.I'm sure Kirk will make sure they're included this time.


If Lars and James will let him...

[irotinmyskin]

METALLICA IS FOR BEGINNERS ONLY.

no no., theire first records did suck too-

[Squirrel]

Wow, your sarcasm really failed to work there. You should try and improve on that.

No.

[munky_magik]

Sarcasm's point is to be funny, not to be able to be recognized ;)

[Burdcheese]

Get out. We don't want your type here.

[DisposableHeroes]

Kirk said there were no solos because HE felt they didnt fit the music

[Burdcheese]

Holy 1000th post Batman!

I think he was probably right - St. Anger had its flow even if it was repetitive in the extreme.

[munky_magik]

Sarcasm's point is to be funny, not to be able to be recognized ;)

I'm sure that's debatable :p

[Otherside]

Kirk said there were no solos because HE felt they didnt fit the music


Didn't he say in the documentary film that he wanted solos so that he wouldn't be cropped with al the other bands out now? I never actually saw the film, but I did hear that quote.

[DisposableHeroes]

i just hope Lars doesnt use sauce pans for drums

[Burdcheese]

Didn't he say in the documentary film that he wanted solos so that he wouldn't be cropped with al the other bands out now? I never actually saw the film, but I did hear that quote.

No, it was Lars saying there shouldn't be any because they were a fad that had passed.

Shame on him :amaze:

[DisposableHeroes]

Didn't he say in the documentary film that he wanted solos so that he wouldn't be cropped with al the other bands out now? I never actually saw the film, but I did hear that quote.

its in an interview i have in an issue of Kerrap!, the fans ask them questions. One of them was "how come there are no solos on the album?" He answered that he felt it didnt fit the music, then added if some one asked that one more time he would scream :p

[Otherside]

No, it was Lars saying there shouldn't be any because they were a fad that had passed.

Shame on him :amaze:

:upset: I say get rid of him :\


I'm sure that's debatable

True, but would you really want to waste time on it? Nah.

[Squirrel]

Nice cover.

[Shred Danson]

Kerrap!,

Haha, nice.

[Burdcheese]

:upset: I say get rid of him :\


But who would you replace him with?

There are certainly "better" drummers out there, but are they Metallica?

[DisposableHeroes]

hmmm, i wonder if they will open with a song off the new album when they tour it, or wether they'll alternate between Battery and Blackened. I sincerely hope the latter

[Otherside]

But who would you replace him with?

Is Metallica Metallica anymore?

[Squirrel]

Lars is a massive part of their songwriting, they need him.

He's been with them like, 20 years, he cant leave.

[Burdcheese]

ot: btw - what happened to the Pikachu avatar squirrel?

[Shred Danson]

hmmm, i wonder if they will open with a song off the new album when they tour it, or wether they'll alternate between Battery and Blackened. I sincerely hope the latter

Don't they usually open with those two songs (and "Hit The Lights")?

[DisposableHeroes]

Is Metallica Metallica anymore?
Who can say? Every album sounds different

InIceColdBlood: Hit The Lights is used as an encore sometimes

[Otherside]

Exactly.

Ah, yeah.


You know what would be 1) unrealistic and 2) Something to get excited about?

Metallica playing with Exodus. Don't see it happening, though :lol:

[Burdcheese]

We did the Black album a while back...

Load:

King Nothing
Wasting My Hate
Until It Sleeps
Mama Said
Ain't My Bitch
The House Jack Built
The Outlaw Torn
Hero Of The Day
Bleeding Me
Poor Twisted Me
2x4
Cure
Thorn Within
Ronnie

How about that for speed listing?

[Squirrel]

Metallica supporting Cryptopsy would blow my mind.


Also, if Carcass reformed for a one off gig with them.

[JACKROXYOU]

Discussion>lists

what ever you say man

[DisposableHeroes]

What kinda annoys me is when people say they sold out with the Black album, Load etc yet they were already progressing musically, it just so happens in the 90's it was a huge change of musical direction. Cliff Burton even said in future they might experiment with softer sounds.

[Burdcheese]

^^I agree completely.

I dislike the term Sold-out itself. I use it as a kind of ironic insult now, based around someting James said in one of the MTV Icon interviews:

"You sold out man! You made a video!"

[Mister_Che]

The whole "they sold out" bandwagon that everyone is jumping on to annoys me too. Closed-minded people annoy the sh.it out of me, like laxatives.

[Burdcheese]

Closed-minded people annoy the sh.it out of me, like laxatives.

:lol: :lol:

Repped for that

[DisposableHeroes]

hehehe, James can be quite a funny man. As proved onstage at Download '04.

Its nice to see some like-minded Metallica fans who dont go around branding them "sell-outs"

[Mister_Che]

Its nice to see some like-minded Metallica fans who dont go around branding them "sell-outs"

You're not going to find the "Metallica bacame sell-outs" crowd in here. :) Unless some noob pops in and posts something off topic like "Metallica sux0rs" or "Metallica sold-out, Linkin Park>Metallica". I've seen it happen....

[Burdcheese]

They promptly get shouted at and are never seen again.

I wonder what happens to them. Maybe they languish in the fires of n00b hell...

[DisposableHeroes]

its funny how all the 'foos on blabbermouth slam them, yet other bands do the same things mentioned as Metallica and they get praised

[munky_magik]

They promptly get shouted at and are never seen again.

I wonder what happens to them. Maybe they languish in the fires of n00b hell...

they get banned :)

[DisposableHeroes]

anyone here play any Metallica on geetar?

[Squirrel]

I used to, but i stopped about 2 years ago ( playing Metallica, not guitar ).

[DisposableHeroes]

I've almost got the second solo in The Four Horsemen

[Squirrel]

Nice, im more into playing virtuoso music now, or very technical stuff.

[Mister_Che]

MOP (All)
Battery (All but the main solo)
Fade To Black (All but the last solo)
One (All)
Nothing Else Matters (All)
No Leaf Clover (All but the solo)
Orion (all but the solo's, know most of the first and second one)
Call of Ktulu (all but the solo)

[DisposableHeroes]

I wish i could say the same, but i guess in a few years if i keep practicing

[WeMissYouDime]

What makes this "the official metallica" thread?

[Mister_Che]

Few years? Nah, I've been playing for a little over one year and I can play the aforementioned stuff up to speed.

[Squirrel]

Heh, different strokes for different folks.

[Burdcheese]

they get banned :)

*sigh* well that's that then.

I can play a few a few Metallica intros on the guitar; One, Sanitarium, Nothing Else Matters. But I'm really only an absolute beginner, so can't do much (read anything) more than that.

Having got a double bass drum pedal for christmas I intend to learn a lot more on the drums (my main instrument) now.

[Mister_Che]

What makes this "the official metallica" thread?

It was made by a Moderator and blessed by Metallica themselves with their holy axes and drumsticks.







True story.

[WeMissYouDime]

Did Kirk or Lars approve of it?

[Mister_Che]

Did Kirk or Lars approve of it?

Approve it? They paid the mod to make it!

[WeMissYouDime]

True story.So, i've been blessed by Slayer, i hung out with Kerry King.. you dont see me starting the "official slayer" thread. Quit bragging about your experiences with other bands, nobody truly cares.

I wasn't bragging.
I've never met Metallica.
I didn't create this thread.
I don't care if you don't care.

You sir, are very gullible.

[catchingdeath08]

my band is getting some songs together for a talent show, we're playing for whom the bell tolls and call of the ktulu but we arent sure what else any suggestions?

Battery or MOP. The crowd goes Ape-Sh.it for the latter.

It was actually to Squirrell :p

[catchingdeath08]

:) thats good because we already started learning battery... we just need to get the solos down

[WeMissYouDime]

I only asked what makes this the "OFFICIAL" Metallica thread.

[catchingdeath08]

i wish i had a sitar :(

[Burdcheese]

**OFFICIAL** threads are only started if theres actually a need for one - this one was started when there were loads of threads bitching about St. Anger. Thus this was created so all the bitching could be focussed in one place.

Its official in that its the only one allowed

[Mister_Che]

:) thats good because we already started learning battery... we just need to get the solos down

How are you doing the opening? You're not using a recording right? I just need to know because our band has the whole thing down, but we can't figure out a decent way to do the 4-guitar intro.

[catchingdeath08]

lets bitch about saint anger some more lol

[Mister_Che]

i wish i had a sitar :(

Same here. I've only seen Kirk use it on S&M. The recording plays on Cunning Stunts for that.

[catchingdeath08]

3 guitars

[catchingdeath08]

i should have quoted that

[WeMissYouDime]

**OFFICIAL** threads are only started if theres actually a need for one - this one was started when there were loads of threads bitching about St. Anger. Thus this was created so all the bitching could be focussed in one place.

Its official in that its the only one allowedOfficial means that it would have been started by the whole band. I'm not correcting your grammar.. but.. no.. wait.. yes. I am. :)

[Mister_Che]

Official means that it would have been started by the whole band.

Or a Moderator. :)

[catchingdeath08]

mister che how many guitar players do u have 2?

[WeMissYouDime]

Or a Moderator. :)No, then it would be an Official Mod (or name of moderator) thread.
Look it up you ignoramous.
In order for it to be official, it has to be approved by the band and/or approved by the band; and since i've seen no posts from the band, im a little skeptic of this being the "OFFICIAL" metallica thread.

Yes, i am a smartass. I know.

OK, if the word OFFICIAL bothers you, just think of this thread as a "Metallica General Discussion Thread." There's no need to make a big fuss about it. I doubt Lars would want to close this site merely because it contains and OFFICIAL Metallica thread that wasn't approved by them. End of story.


catchingdeath, yup we have 2.

[DisposableHeroes]

that little fill solo in Battery seems fairly easy

[catchingdeath08]

you could probaby have one person do the guitar that comes in first and u could play the next part, they wont miss the 3rd guitar but what i usually do is play the 2nd and 3rd...you cant hammer and pull...but it sounds good

[Mister_Che]

that little fill solo in Battery seems fairly easy

Just Pull-offs, nothing hard really.

Thanks catchingdeath, I'll try that tonight. :D

OK, if the word OFFICIAL bothers you, just think of this thread as a "Metallica General Discussion Thread." There's no need to make a big fuss about it. I doubt Lars would want to close this site merely because it contains and OFFICIAL Metallica thread that wasn't approved by them. End of story.


catchingdeath, yup we have 2.
It's funny how pissed off you get from a little education of the word "OFFICIAL".
I could careless whether or not Lars would want to shut down the site, as he did Napster, because of the word Official.
I could careless about Metallica.
I like them, they're a good band.
But you people need to grow up. There's other bands out there that are WAYY better.

[DisposableHeroes]

i was thinking of learning something off the Black album for the fun of it

[WeMissYouDime]

In class right now, bells about to ring. I would LOVE to stick around and continue bitching about random ****, but i hate you all :)
Much love...

he wasnt getting pissed off, if anything you were. He didnt shut down Napster because it was official, it was because it was illegal

1. Don't come into a Metallica thread just to tell us there are better bands out there. It's all a matter of opinion anyway.

2. I don't care about the "OFFICIAL" title that this thread has. You've made a bigger deal about it than anyone ever has.

3. Metallica could careless about you.

4. I don't need to grow up, I'd like to think that I am pretty mature for my age.

Disposableheroes, learn The Unforgiven, not too hard and it's fun to play.

that sitar kirk uses is really cool

[Burdcheese]

/Me wants the S&M DVD :(

[Mister_Che]

whoa whoa ok calm down

that sitar kirk uses is really cool

True he can, but it isn't really smart to come into a Metallica thread just to annoy the people here.

And Kirk's sitar is cool. But I can't get a decent view of it when he uses it on S&M.

[Shred Danson]

What kinda annoys me is when people say they sold out with the Black album, Load etc yet they were already progressing musically, it just so happens in the 90's it was a huge change of musical direction. Cliff Burton even said in future they might experiment with softer sounds.

Yeah, I loved Load and Reload, but people seem to have a problem with Metallica playing the music they want to.

[led_zep_luvr]

you can still play the intro to that song with a guitar and it sounds close to the same

[Shred Danson]

that little fill solo in Battery seems fairly easy

Yeah, it ain't that hard.

the cameras in s&m some times annoy the crap out of me

[Mister_Che]

the cameras in s&m some times annoy the crap out of me

I think they were really bad during Battery, but most of the camera work sucked, in the sense that they only stood in one place for too long. It would've been cool if they went with the music.

[DisposableHeroes]

Mister Che, at what skill would you say you are at on guitar? I think i'm skilled enough to play quite a bit, but i just dont use my potential enough

[led_zep_luvr]

hey, i don't want to sound like a poser but i always wondered how to pronounce "call of ktulu" i didn't want to ask any of my friends and i just wanted someone to mention it. so now im asking you here at mx.

thanks

[JACKROXYOU]

yea but what are ya gonna do at least the music is good and it gets the job done

the way it looks, no one gives me lip when i did that

[Mister_Che]

Well, I come from a family of musicians, so I picked up the guitar and bass pretty quickly. Technical wise, I don't know much about scales and modes. But sit a tab down in front of me and I can nail most of it in a week. I'm no Eddie Van Halen, but I am at least good enough o play most of Metallica's stuff.






Just not all of their solo's. :D

Dont know what u were talkin about in here but metallica is THE best band ever or ever will be.Maiden is up there but not quite.

[led_zep_luvr]

that doesn't help. i pronounce it to myself

call of tulu

i just assume the "k" is silent

are you sure?

Well thats how I pronounce it - not being familiar with the works of HP Lovecraft I have no reason to think otherwise.

Though I doubt most people will look down on you for pronouncing it in any way thats rational

poo, it appears i have AOL instant messaging stuffs though

o, ok thanks. i guess i will pronounce it your way now

[Burdcheese]

Well I'm honoured...

[led_zep_luvr]

do you guys think you will like metallica your whole life?

i think i will because kirk is my biggest influence. for as long as i play guitar(rest of my life) i think i will always like metallica

[DisposableHeroes]

i think i'll always like them, once i like a band i always will, unless i go off them

[Burdcheese]

I honestly couldn't say. I like them at the moment, but I'm always investigating new bands/sounds so I might find one that totally obliterates Metallica from my conscienceness.

Tangentially - this is the argument for why physical music rocks - with CDs you can go back in years to come and see what you liked when you were younger. So, say if I stop Liking them, I can put on MOP when I'm 40 and think... 'yeah I remember this - it was good'

yea,

the other day i was in the car with my dad and we were driving to get some food and i but on my new black sabbath CD (symptom of the universe) and my dad said he wanted to borrow my sabbath CD because it brought back memories of him in high school when all his friends would sing along to faeries wear boots etc.

I love it when my dad regails me with stories of seeing Thin Lizzy in their prime

Good for you, man. I learned pretty much every Metallica song when I first started out, and now, it's not that I'm not able to play their solos-I can bust out leads OK-I just choose not to because I'm a lazy bastard.

RIP DARRELL
12/9/2004
[ back ]

This is unbelievable. To sit here and talk about Darrell in the past tense seems so wrong, so unfair, so unjust, I don't even know what to say. My heart goes out to Vinnie, to their families, to the other band members, and to the families and friends of the other people that were killed or injured, in this ****ing senseless act of selfishness and stupidity.

In 1985 I was fortunate enough to meet both Darrell and his brother in Dallas on tour. The first thing me and my friend did as soon as that tour was over, was to head straight back to Dallas and hang out with Darrell and Vinnie for a long time, cuz they were the coolest muther ****ers that we had met after criss-crossing the states for three months. That was the beginning of a friendship that was anchored in love, respect, fun, outrageousness, music, booze, sweat, late nights, early mornings, hangovers, headaches, pounding eardrums, sore bodies... the list goes on.

There's a tendency in these ****ed up moments to use the word "I" a lot and focus on one's own feelings of pity and shock... so instead let it just be known that thru these eyes Darrell was incredibly warm, open, fun, nutty, forthcoming, talented, embracing, unpretentious, accommodating and he always had a very attractive innocence about him that obviously made him never threatening and always welcoming.

Darrell and his brother were the cornerstone of musical adventures that were always groundbreaking, pushing boundaries, challenging to themselves and to their fans, respected by their peers and always true musicians' musicians, and today the rock world is worse off because of this untimely and senseless waste.

Much love and respect and thanks for letting me be a small part of your life and I know you are already having fun and throwing it down with Bon Scott, Keith Moon, John Bonham, Jimi, Cliff B., and the rest of the musicians and troublemakers that you are hanging with so prematurely.

Lars

[munky_magik]

I used to play alot of Metallica on guitar, then I realised that they were the basic extent of my repotire(sp?) so I started learning other stuff.

[DisposableHeroes]

i'm browsing Metallica tabs, i fancy learning Escape

[Shred Danson]

Escape's a good song to learn. Anything from Ride the Lightning and Kill Em All are fun to play.

[Mister_Che]

He didn't mention Randy. :(

But it was very thoughtful of him nonetheless.

[led_zep_luvr]

i'm browsing Metallica tabs, i fancy learning Escape

great song indeed! usually gets over looked by fade to black fight fire with fire etc. but it is a great song on that album

[DisposableHeroes]

the Escape solo isnt very hard either, or doesnt look it. Just a pentatonic doodle

[led_zep_luvr]

whiplash solo is fun

[led_zep_luvr]

kinda reminds me of thunderstruck by AC/DC

[JACKROXYOU]

whip lash is awsome
i wish i was those idiots in the whiplash video who are running around the stadium

[led_zep_luvr]

[Shred Danson]

Pretty much any Metallica song is based on pentatonics.

[DisposableHeroes]

doesnt Kirk use some modes too?

[Shred Danson]

doesnt Kirk use some modes too?

I think he does. Specifically which ones, I'm not totally sure.

[DisposableHeroes]

hes pretty inventive considering he uses Pentatonic nearly all the time

[Shred Danson]

Yeah, some solos sound the same but they're all brilliant, to me.

He's great, i hope to hear more of him on the next record
