Live ****>AJFA>MoP>RTL>ReLoad>Garage Inc.>St. Anger>KEA>Load>Black>S&M

If you don't have Live **** I HIGHLY recommend you get that sweet thing.

S&M isn't that bad... it's just different. I like the unreleased songs like, No leaf clover and the ecstasy of gold...

then Again, I have weird tastes in music.

I wish I could sing too.


RTL> all other Metallica abums

Got my amp today!

The Ecstasy of Gold is the theme they play at the beginning of any concert they do. (or atleast sense 88) I much prefer No Leaf Clover when they don't have the S&M stuff. James's clean tone is so amazing during that. Me needs a Roland JC-120 to add to my rack so I can get that.

I have a wide range of music taste but I just can't listen to S&M

[QUOTE=spawn7037]Metallica has produced the best musicians in a long while. Burton was and incredible bassist[/quote]
As a bassist, I take offense to this. His basslines were average for thrash, and still are. His songwriting, however, is a different story.

No comment.

[quote]lars plays the drums like i play your mom[/quote]
Ever heard of a guy called Flo Mounier? Derek Roddy? Martin Lopez? Dave Lombardo? Gene Hoglan? Jon Allen? Richard Christy? Hellhammer? Joey goddamn Jordison? Lars is a sub-par drummer, despite fitting Metallica's music. He didn't record the drums for Dyers Eve in one session (I've heard he had many different sessions pasted together), and the drums on St. Anger are looped through ProTools because he was too lazy to actually play the whole tracks for the recording.

No comment.

Clean singing is tough. I sound like a dying cat if I try to go above my talking range. Growling is tough as well, at certain times. Trying to be Mikael Akerfeldt or Dallas Toler-Wade is easy for me; trying to be "Eaten Back to Life"-era Chris Barnes or Karl Sanders is not.

AJFA > MoP = RTL > KEA ...Could change...

I don't have any of the others. And honestly I don't realy mind. I've heard a lot from St. Anger and 1 or 2 songs from the other stuff.

what happened to Bob Rock?

Rick Rubin is a serious upgrade dont you think?

[QUOTE=Five Magics]what happened to Bob Rock?

Bob Rock turned out one good album. It's long past due for him to be gone.


I wonder what Rubin will do...

What's everyone's gripe against Trapped Under Ice and Escape? :confused:
I love both songs, probably more so Escape (One of the, if not best lyrical songs from Metallica imo, on par with Fade To Black..), but Trapped Under Ice is just so good to play!

Arghhh, frustrates me, I wanna know what everyone else sees about them, that I don't (If anyone gets what I mean?)

God will you get off Joey Jordison overrated, sloppy dick? He sucks ***.

Ktulu takes the cake IMHO for best instrumental.

I take Trapped Under Ice over Escape. It's not the best song off RTL, obviously, but still a good listen.

And yes, Ktutlu is a good intrumental.

He's produced Slayer, RHCP and some rap bands before right?

Oh yeah funk/thrash with rapping on the next Metallica album.

Hey, I wouldn't complain if it was a funk/thrash record!

[QUOTE=Chu]Hey, I wouldn't complain if it was a funk/thrash record![/QUOTE]
but all the kids on blabbermouth would. in fact, take "funk/thrash" out of the phrase and the blabbermouth kids would still complain.

No matter what, there's always gonna be someone complaining, no matter how good the record is.

Ahh .. Metallica!
My favourite band years ago.
I was obsessed with Kirk's solos.
I have to get some albums again for old times sake.

First album I ever bought was Ride The Lightning.
Dunno where it is. ;/

Are any of u fellas half as stoked as I am about teh New album with Rick Rubin?? I mean regardless of what he has produced and who its been its always hardcore or true to the genre....not liek Bob Rock and hos hair metal.....i am a fan of all Metallica....but i really miss the old sound. I seriously think Rick is the savior our band needs so bad. I mean just to bounce back from St. Anger. Rock ON!!!!!

Same.

Tool on the bill for download as well now. :D

Metallica will never have the same sound on any album. Stop fantasying about past records. Everyone in Metallica has said many times that they hope that the sound changes everytime during each album.

I hate it when bands say things like that. It just makes you shudder.

I hope they stick to their guns and make it more metal. Not like Load and Reload.

^Load was good but only for a one off album. Re-load however is pretty abysmal. I'd like another Ride the lightning style or even Black album style.

Fuel was awesome though.

I dunno, To Live is To Die and Orion are pretty kick ***.


I think I choose Orion as the best istrumental.


Also, BLS, I think you mentioned No Leaf Clover in an earlier post...

No, he doesn't. Listen past Slipknot. Listen to his work on the Roadrunner United album. I have to see if I can get a bootleg of one of the shows he did on Satyricon's US tour supporting "Volcano", because if a black metal band wants him to play for them, with songs faster that Slipknot's songs ever could be, then he has to be good.

Besides that fact, playing live in front of what? 50,000? 100,000? More? For the first time with the actual band Metallica. Think about it. You'd be sloppy too, playing with childhood heroes of yours for the first time. Really, I'd love to see you do better, because it's hilarious how you call him sloppy and saying he sucks, despite all signs pointing to it being otherwise.

I'm not talking about his playing for Metallica I'm talking about him in-general. He's not very good. Wow he can play fast, so can Dave Lombardo who completely destroys him on the drums. Joey is sloppy and I don't have to see him play Enter the Sand man on youtube to understand that. Saw him at Ozzyfest this year and last and he sucks.

speed =\= good

Because you've listened to all of his work beyond Slipknot, right? Mick Thompson is a horrible guitarist too. :rolleyes:

Most of the guys in Slipknot are very horrible musicians. Take a look at Al Di Meola or John McLaughlin if you think Mick Thompson is any good. I can see now what it is with you I'm done with the arguing.
