[QUOTE=bastardsloth]anybody her know that metallica is a type of spider? saw it in a pet store today. always wondered where the got the name. huh[/QUOTE]

If you are talking about how they got the name , you are wrong. Lars's friend needed a title for a Metal magazine. The guy liked Metallica, but Lars said it sucked and said to go with Metal Mania (I think). And so Lars was jking , he actually liked it and stole it.

Metalllica Rules The best album and is Master Of Puppets...


I can play A lot of the songs on guitar(not all the solos then ;) )

I really liked metallica up to the black album. After that They just seemed to get worse. I kind of wish they would have retired after the black album. They have lost a lot of respect and fans since then.

They'd be [B]absolute legends[/B] if they'd quit after ..Justice.

Just 4 albums, better and better. That'd be so weird.

It's because they either tried to take a new 'modern' root by realising albums like load and reload or because they were advised to make this move. It was a very bad move though, but Im not sure how long they could have gone trying to make masterpieces of albums.

Hey load and reload are awesome (not as good as KEM-AJFA but anyhoo). fuel and fixxxer are great songs (i cant name the best one from load, a lot of them are the same level of kick-assness). the black album is still good, the unforgiven, Sad but true! but they should have stopped after reload though.

i admit metallicas first 4 albums are the best, but whats wrong with Load and Reload. Those CDs are so good. Im not crazy about the Black album or St Anger, but some of my favorite songs are on Load and Reload. What is there to not like about them?

i like load and reload they are very good cds whats wrong with them

hello is any one actually here with me

i think james's best vocals are in load and reload.

hi bex yes james h rocks in all of them tho oh yeah how is ulrich and his new gf

I still say MOP was their best.

yea, MOP or RTL.

that or RTL

dam beat me to it

wonder if Rob will bring an old school feel to the new album

ride the lightning had the best guitar tone, that and S+M. singing, it was probably the black album. master of puppets is probably their best album total, but my favorite is justice.

[QUOTE=DisposableHeroes]wonder if Rob will bring an old school feel to the new album[/QUOTE]

I bet he will. I don't know why people say that he sucks. He's pretty good.

Because they compare everyone to Cliff. Which I guess is kind of justified since they won't get another bassist like that. Then again, hes dead so really stop bitching.

Newsted was good, but he was smart and left the band.

just hope Lars uses a proper kit instead of banging cutlery with sticks

Any word on when they're going to start the new album?

[QUOTE=DisposableHeroes]just hope Lars uses a proper kit instead of banging cutlery with sticks[/QUOTE]

Lets hope Lars breaks both his arms in an unfortunate check-cashing incident and Dave Lombardo fills in on the album :D

c'mon, Lars aint that bad :lol:

[QUOTE=dogydemoc]Any word on when they're going to start the new album?[/QUOTE]

Apparently they are going to start on a new album in January 2005. It was mentioned somewhere in this thread, a good few pages back or so. I hope its true.

[QUOTE=Kickflip_Burrito]How did people find out about this?[/QUOTE]

Interviews.

did you see the interview with METALLICA over tha black album?
It was pretty sweet. Nothing new, nothing new, but still! I think that when they do documentaries on METALLICA I always seem to find out somthing new on METALLICA. I can't think of anything right now off the top of my head.

I like metallica.
