hey , i'm a true metallica fan and i've heard a lot of people saying hethfield is the best in galloping down or whatever you call it, like MOP verse.
so, i'm just wondering if you've ever heard any offspring songs like for examle want you bad? dexter does a very fast galloping. what do you think about it?
but please do not insult me, i am one of you.

just curious about what you all think of offspring galloping

thanks

I went to see Metallica last night at Earls Court .. it ruled .. the 2nd best gig ive ever been to.
But I was just wondering .. if anyone else did go .. do they know the setlist ?

They're coming to Montreal soon, I believe. Unfortunately, ticket prices are expensive as hell, those greedy bastards.

Its not really galloping, galloping is more like a quarter note followed by 2 eighth notes EG Raining Blood.

but yeah, Offspring are good at fast palm muting.

I heard that james writes most of the solos is that true, i always thought kirk wrote the solos and james wrote everything else

Bump!

Im pretty sure Kirk does most of the solos but James does do a few of them. nothing else matters for example, james did that one. Metallica frickin rules, they're the reason why i started playing guitar

Wow, Metallica last night was amazing, only two st. anger songs and Dirty window was made good with a 30 sec hammet solo. Plus lars playing guitar and kirk on drums lol

yea i thought kirk wrote all the solos

No Kirk Doesn't write all the solos......He hardly writes any infact. I've had this discussion to many times and it bores me.

People get credited when they think of solos. Kirk isn't credited very often through the first 5 albums. Something like 17 out of 47 songs. So yeah JAMES writes most of the solos....that clear things up for you?

what other songs did metallica play that night?

*bump*

[QUOTE=ZildjianDummer]what other songs did metallica play that night?[/QUOTE]
Battery. MOP, one, Seek & Destroy, Harvester of sorrow, Motorbreath, four hoursemen, sad but true, enter sandman, nothing else matters and lar played guitar for a bit

bump.

i've never heard of metallica playing leper messiah live. what's really wrong with that song? i mean it's my favourite in MOP album. but i can't find any live video of it. except cunning stunts where they play only intro with jason on drums.

please tell me, don't they like that song?

Well, on all the solos he play there is always his mark on them....
Are you sure he dosen't write the solos?

I'm very sure. He writes quite a few and most of them are excellent, but he only became a Key writer after 1991.

I saw them Saturday night at Earl's Court. It was [color=white]fuc[/color]king incredible, I was at the barrier and the feeling was great. My first time seeing Metallica and they didn't let me down!

You must have got there pretty **** early to be at the barriers!

Did Kirk and Lars swap instruments? They seem to be making that a regular thing of theirs.

^^

What a crock of ****, of course kirk writes most of the main solos have you ever watched the making of the black album??? Thats all kirk does in the band, he goes off by himself to write the solo, comes back to james and lars (and from balck onwards rock too) and they **** with it till it fits the song right.

Did you see him write all the solos by himself?

Is he credited for them?

on that exact "making of the black album" did you hear James say Enter Sandman was the first Riff Kirk wrote?

So that means if that was his first riff (which he was credited for) that would mean he would be credited for just solos before that spot in time..........right?

That would be why he's credited for writing 14 solos from Kill 'Em All to ....And Justice For All. This is why I'm making that assumption.

*bump*

I think Kirk writes most of the solos, except where it is mentioned otherwise (Master of puppets, Nothing else matters,...)

And James writes the riffs

Yeah thats what I think as well.

Plus, most of Kirks solos don't take much writing talent as most are just wah pentatonic wankery. But on MOP it states where someone else plays a solo, meaning that it is Kirk unless otherwise stated.
