[QUOTE=MoX_KIll]I voted for ...And Justice for all when/if no other metallica cd was in that poll...im sick of seeing Pink Floyd and Tool all the time so i voted for It[/QUOTE]

You mean you're sick of seeing those bands as others are of seeing Metallica?

yea pretty much

[QUOTE=munky_magik]You mean you're sick of seeing those bands as others are of seeing Metallica?[/QUOTE]

Oh man am i sick of tool. They win everything.

[QUOTE=gocaps99]Oh man am i sick of tool. They win everything.[/QUOTE]



I voted Metallica myself, maybe some other competitors are great and maybe we are not all fond of the load + but i can still listen to seek and destroy and be amazed to this day... Metallica is a band with so much material i can never get bored! lol, thats my opinion, we are all different remember

[QUOTE=gocaps99]Oh man am i sick of tool. They win everything.[/QUOTE]

Ditto - Until I can get one of their albums and judge differently, I really can't see what the fuss is about.

APC seem much better - better tunes for a start.

[QUOTE=gocaps99]Oh man am i sick of tool. They win everything.[/QUOTE]

What exactly have they won?

[QUOTE=munky_magik]What exactly have they won?[/QUOTE]

they win a lot of polls. they have so many fanboys that they beat out a lot of good albums. (not that metallica doesn't have fanboys) but in the polling a little while ago for the best song didn't tool come in number two. NUMBER TWO?!?!?! how can it be possible that tool came in number two for the BEST song.

and they've beaten out so many good albums in these polls and it just sickens me that all those guys vote for is tool

So you don't like Tool. Deal with it.

[QUOTE=Burdcheese]MOP definately - it is a classic metal album.

I want to know who exactly has been voting for AJFA above
a) all other Metallica albums
b) all other albums in R&M

I'm not even going to vote in that poll...[/QUOTE]


And Justice for all... I must say myself i personally do not think it is Metallica's best album musically, i would say as far as instruments go, some of the material on there is very complex and difficult (From a drummers eyes) i also think that it is the complex drum structures that accually destroy the power of this album, just because it is played fast does not mean to say that it is better, just because its hard to play, does not mean it is any better either....
All the same it is still a great album, although i would say Ride the lightning definatly comes above ajfa although i prefer jayme'z vocals on the justice album...
Thats my opinion, what do you guys think???

i think ajfa is their best album.it has classic songs like one,harvester of sorrow(their best song),shortest straw,blackened,dyers eve,to live is to die.although i like cliff over jason and robert.most people dis on ajfa but its a great album.

yes i think it's a great album, i just don't think it's there best. they've produced better songs than the ones on ajfa. yes, i like most of the ones on ajfa, but i like the earlier songs better

I agree with the Cliff part there, i prefer him over jason and rob any day, and Harvester of sorrow would probably be my favourite song of the justice album also, with close competition from Blackened hehe...
On shortest straw, is that Larz doing backing vocals, or is it my ears... i have wondered that for years???

AJFA used to be my favourite, but then the production really started to get on my nerves to the extent that it actually detracts from the quality of the songs themselves. I find most of the tracks quite boring really.

For example, AJFA (the song) really drags, yet its great live - though sadly they don't play it very often.

The only songs on AJFA I actually actively [I]like[/I] are One (The definitive Metallica song?), TLITD and Dyers Eve.


I know a lot of people feel the same way which is why I can't understand how that of all Metallica's albums made it into the final.

i like the riffs in ajfa, but your right. the song is about 3 mins too long.

the sad thing is is that Enter Sandman is the definitive Metallica song because it's the only song half of the Metallica "fans" have ever heard.
But besides that, I go with One or Master of Puppets

Definitive Metallica Song = Enter Sandman


Admit it, it's true, :upset:

[QUOTE=Mister_Che]Definitive Metallica Song = Enter Sandman


Admit it, it's true, :upset:[/QUOTE]
no,good song but overplayed to the point that you want to kill the radio.id say their best song is harvester of sorrow or dyers eve

Its true
 

[QUOTE=gocaps99]i like the riffs in ajfa, but your right. the song is about 3 mins too long.

I couldn't agree with you more there, and those extra three minuites of the song sound like a totally different song, have you noticed that???
Its like they have got a totally different song, intergrated the AJFA lyrics and glued it to the end...!

[QUOTE=willis2441]no,good song but overplayed to the point that you want to kill the radio.id say their best song is harvester of sorrow or dyers eve[/QUOTE]
no but definitive song means when you ask people about a metallica song the answer you get will be enter sandman from most people

[QUOTE=gocaps99]no but definitive song means when you ask people about a metallica song the answer you get will be enter sandman from most people[/QUOTE]
oic, or st anger lol!

nothing else matters is well known as a metallica definitive song

sad but true too,basically anything on the black album is definitive for them.

[QUOTE=i_love_my_epiphone]nothing else matters is well known as a metallica definitive song[/QUOTE]

yea, pathetic isn't it? not that they're bad songs, it's just they're far from the best

[QUOTE=i_love_my_epiphone]nothing else matters is well known as a metallica definitive song[/QUOTE]


Yes true, i have used that song to suck so many people into the world of Metallica, if you know someone who dislikes metal, sofen them up with nothing else matters lol....
Then move onto sanitarium, and maybe call of ktulu??? intersting hmmmm

Speaking of definitive songs.... Ok what song of Metallica's did you first hear??? And what made you come about hearing it???

To be honest, I love the acoustic part on To Live Is To Die more than most of Nothing Else Matters.

[QUOTE=LarsAgi007]Speaking of definitive songs.... Ok what song of Metallica's did you first hear??? And what made you come about hearing it???[/QUOTE]


Ride the Lightning. My uncle had a tape in his car. I was.... 8 maybe? Hmmm, I wonder where the hell he is.

[QUOTE=LarsAgi007]Speaking of definitive songs.... Ok what song of Metallica's did you first hear??? And what made you come about hearing it???[/QUOTE]

ok so they first metallica song i heard was enter sandman, but i didn't know it was metallica at the time. i found out it was metallica when my friend asked me to do the wah part in the intro and so he showed me everything and i found out it was metallica. so then i started playing enter sandman in another class and this other dude started playing fade to black so i downloaded fade to black and then bought RTL and it all went uphill from there...


you?

[QUOTE=gocaps99]yea, pathetic isn't it? not that they're bad songs, it's just they're far from the best[/QUOTE]
