Imperial March is fake.

Oh yeah, im leaving so, bye all :)

for me nothing beats Wherever I may roam....this song rocks so much

11 days til I see Metallica live.

\m/.

yeah its a good thing this is a metallica thread or people might talk about sum 41 or something

Anyway, I think I might be going to a metallica concert next month... does anyone know what songs they'll probably play, i mean besides their St. Anger set? any classics I could look forward to?

I want to kiss the one who had the idea of this threads....ok ok maybe not that much ! :D Keep writing and don't let it die ! :thumb:

I'm trying to play the enter sandman solo on the guitar...unforuntaly, i don' have a wah pedal so I can't tell if it will turn out good..can anyone tell me if the "finished product" of the solo w/o a wah sounds any good?? thx

Hm..Learn it then get a wah pedal when you can afford it?

[QUOTE=FockerTheLopper]Solo from My friend of misery blows my mind... the wah effect one... any1 have a favorite metallica solo?[/QUOTE] fight fire with fire god im in love all over again it fights right in the song

Is anyone here going to the San jose show?

hey, does anyone know tomorrow pre-order begins on the vinyl box set of metallica? does anyone think i have a chance to get it? there are 5000 in america out of miliions and millions of fans. it is unlikely i will get it.

A box set of Metallica albums on VINYL?

Are you on drugs?

How many Metallica fans want/care/have the money for records?

Don't worry, you'll get it. They'll probably have a surplus.

hey does anyone know if you have to have a credit card to order off the metallica online store? i am 16, so i don't have one and i doubt my dad will put $100+ on it so i can get something irrelevant to life.

I don't see how you could order online without it.

Maybe a money order, but I don't see how that would work for a pre-order.

Do you actually like vinyls, or are you just getting this for the sheer purpose of having them?

because it's cool. This individually numbered, limited-edition LP box contains Metallica's first four albums -- Kill 'Em All, Ride The Lightning, Master Of Puppets, and ...And Justice For All -- as well as the out-of-print Garage Days Revisited EP and the previously import-only Creeping Death picture disc.

the first 4 albums sell alone for $60 in the stores, after tax, more than $65, this is a great buy, only 5000 for america are made. i could easily turn around and put this on ebay, make a profit real quick. i also find vinyls attractive. not like i want to hump it. it just reminds me of the olden days that i never experienced. seperate pieces of memorabilia sell more than a hundred dollars. i conclude this is a great investment.

Okay, I don't know if this has been done before, but I would like to know what everyone thought was "Metallica's Song". Just one song that you think represents their musical talent, and lyrics and everything in between. I personally think that their song is For Whom the Bell Tolls when they did it on S&M. BEcause I have the dvd and when you watch it, that seems to be the song where everything just flows perfectly.

Probably Fade to Black

IMO its probably either to live is to die or call of ktulu. Both these songs show how well metallica can fuse together and produce quality songs which still have emotion despite a lack of lyrics. Although the lyrics in to live is to die fit perfectly with the song. Cliff RIP. In terms of lyrical ability, any songs from RTL,MOP Or AJFA all deal with relatively weighty topics (suicide, war etc)

A song like Fade To Black or Sanitarium for lyrical and musical content, Just the way they can change the whole mood of the song, while keeping the lyrics perfect to it and most of all meaningfull.
(I don't count One in this though, purely because it's an obvious rip at the fame Fade To Black brought them).

As far as technical side of things go, well what more could you say, Metallica hasn't really gained any new skills over the years.
They just kinda wrote the same style music (Hell even Kirk explored more on the earlier albums with his solos, on Load and ReLoad his solos had became almost too predictable and similar to the solo he had played on the previous song), nothing new, and when there was, well it wasn't great - With a few, and I mean a [b]few[/b] exceptions.

So in conclusion, something from Ride The Lightning, Master of Puppets, or ...And Justice For All (Which, weirdly enough, they did try a new style of music with, wonder why they didn't keep it heavy and fast...) - Personally I believe one of their instrumentals is their best music to date. I love the Call of The Ktulu, and To Live is To Die holds a special place on my stereo's playlist, but their greatest achievement, in my opinion, was Orion.
I too, just as Cliff Burton received, wish for that song to be played at my funeral.

that'd be a pretty interesting thread by itself. let's see, "metallica's song" well i would have to say enter sandman only because it's there biggest hit. but otherwise i would have to say Fade to Black or Master of Puppets

guess what?! on sunday im seeing metallica for the first time live!!! im so pumped and excited! are they really as awesome live as everyone says?

^wow I was such a n00b. I think this is my 2nd metallica and now I'm in front :thumb:

[QUOTE=MajikalLix]WTF you're not making any sense..
If you want to learn a Metallica song..*provided you're a noob guitarist*
Go learn some St.Anger.
It's easy and there's no solos in it to mess with your mind.[/QUOTE]
pfffffffffffffft....how can those songs teach you ANYTHING about guitar? i suggest seek&destroy, thats an easy and good one. st anger isnt even fun at all on guitar IMO.

To Live Is To Die

no one song to that ^^ they have stuff from the country like sound of tuesday's gone to the the hard rock/metal/thrash whatever u want to call it of seek and destroy, etc.

I particularly like Kirk's guitar work on [i]Ride The Lightning[/i], does anyone agree?

hey i was looking for some piano sheet music of some metallica songs..just started out in a new metal band as pianist so i was looking for some good ''tabs'' and stuff...if some1 could give me a site or directly email me some music that would be just ****ing great...

I don't know if you can adapt guitar to piano. I adapted "For Elise" to guitar to play, but that took a long time, and I don't know where you could find those sheets.

My mistake: Here is a book you can buy; [url]http://www.sheetmusicplus.com/a/product.html?command=search&db=/store/db/inventory.db&eqskudata=HL.2502204&id=64465&searchtitle=sheet%20music[/url]

metallica died with the release of the album st. anger R.I.P.

REALLY?!

My world is shattered :upset:
