[QUOTE=Guns'n'Zeppelin023]ahhh... okay... my friend just said teh st anger is the best metallica album.... can somebody rationalize this for me???[/QUOTE]


Its certainly their most honest album to date. They werent trying to fit into any type of genre and it was straight from them. Some of their earlier works were trying to be metal and then when they did Load and ReLoad they were trying not to be. Thats why this is their most honest album.

On a side note I was watching "When Metallica Ruled The World" and Lars said something that sums up what Metallica is all about "You're not going to ****ing sit there and tell me how to run my band". They dont let the fans dictate what music they make, at least not overtly. They may push the envelope one way to **** with people, but thats about it.

i guess that would kinda depend what your taste of trash is, personally i think Metallica has had 3 differnt kinds of sound from album to album, Kill em All thourgh AJFA have a simalar sound, then the Black album to Load have a [B]somewhat[/B] similar sound, and St. Anger is just pure Metallica in my opinion.

:lol:

ha ha, it's funny isn't it?

some photography company i think.

Yeah i saw the Metallica rules the world thing, it was alright but i knew everything already so it really wasnt anything new to me.

They didnt go into much detail about anything, they even left out Ron McGovney and some other major parts of their epic run.

It was pretty good though, its good to let the common person see what Metallica is really about, outside the whole Napster deal.

how do you change your avatar to something which changes?

[QUOTE=metalcritter666]how do you change your avatar to something which changes?[/QUOTE]

i googled "lamb of god icons" and this is what came up, it was small enough, so i right clicked it and hit "copy image location" and put that in my avatar slot.

but you have three at the same time and they change!

[QUOTE=metalcritter666]how do you change your avatar to something which changes?[/QUOTE]
Moving avatars are .gif files, so you need to use a gif animator to create your own.

[QUOTE=metalcritter666]but you have three at the same time and they change![/QUOTE]

Thats what the icon is, its supposed to be for like AIM or something like that but i just used it for this.

There are a number of moving icons availible on metallica.com then just go to extras im sure u can find one u like there.

thanks for the offer man, but $45? heh, not likely.

google "Flash MX" and then go on the macromedia site and get the free trial if you want to make your own animated avatars, you draw them like in paint.

The windows installation file is only 99.4mb :lol:

all you gotta do is google them and you can easley find any avatar

[QUOTE=whatduffhuck7]all you gotta do is google them and you can easley find any avatar[/QUOTE]

yeah the only problem is getting them to be the right size though.

meh it's not that hard

My band is wanting to play a metallica song, but we have no singer, so i said "why dont we play one of their instrumentals?" I havent heard many of the instrumentals but i do think The Call of Ktulu would be a great song to play. Anyone recommend any other instrumentals?

Yes it is called To live is to die, it is an ode to the late Cliff Burton(RIP). It is old music writen by him, and the quote from it is his also.

When a man lies he murders
Some part of the world
These are the pale deaths which
Men miscall their lives
All this I cannot bear
To witness any longer
Cannot the kingdom of salvation
Take me home

MXican, who might that be in your avatar?

It is ginger who is the vocalist/guitarist from the Wildhearts

every song that make you show a feeling,it's a good song.

i think every song makes you feel some kinda emotion except rap they talk to fast to understand any thin

[QUOTE=lilmetallica]i think every song makes you feel some kinda emotion except rap they talk to fast to understand any thin[/QUOTE]
I disagree. When I listen to most bands I don't feel any emotions and rap songs actually usually have more meaning than rock songs. Also, you are being stereotypical. I bet you would get pi[I]s[/I]sed if someone who listens to rap came up to you and goes "ha! you listen to metal, all it is is people in masks screaming in a microphone!"

did i just say somethin?

i guess maybe

don't double post just edit your original post

That's true 'cause rap is more lyrical than musical,and rock is all about the music.
but back to metallica ,this song usually make me showw feelings:

Anesthesia
Fade to black
Orion
To live is to die

As for good lyrical song metallica has:
Ride the lightning(concept)
Escape
Master of Puppets
Dissposable heroes
One
...And justice for all
Eye of the beholder
Sad but true
The Unforgiven
Nothing else matters

random metallica fact:
the song fuel is written about people who like to drive their cars too fast (ie jaymz)
