lol at metallicas boards :lol:

[QUOTE=Squirrel]Well, Megadeth didnt exact hold together did they ..

They had constant lineup changes, massive drug problems and they split up remember ?
theyre playing their last UK show in a few months too ..[/QUOTE]

Im talking about them remaining thrash throughout

But they didnt.

[QUOTE=metal guitar]I would recommend Live Sh*t.[/QUOTE]

I second that, live s[I][U][/U][/I]hit rocks. :thumb:

[QUOTE=supra_speed]Metallica died a long time ago. Heck they're not even metal any more. Sad isnt it :(. Wish they held themseleves together like Megadeth and Slayer.[/QUOTE]


Hey, Metallica are most certainly not done yet!!!! They still have a couple of albums left in them, maybe more..... I wouldn't judge them till they are truly over!
Metallica is not nessasarilly a metal band either, They have a whole load of Metal songs that all of us Metallica fans go crazy over, but they did say right from the start we dont want to be known as a Thrash band, Metal band, Folk band even,
Heck i appreciate them more because of load and reload... 85% say they are awfull albums.... Thats because they were a Metal band up untill those albums, and when they came out with a blues and country album, the only fans of theres were mainly METAL fans..... Ultimatly i think that is why Metallica have done so well, There is a song for everyone.... You have Fight Fire with fire, for the hard rockers out there.... You have Mama said for the country likers... You have Nothing else matters, for the people who enjoy soft rock.....
And so it goes on.....
Metallica have always admired the metal fans, and when the time is right they will return to them with a kick a$s album!
You can't blame a band for what they play, if they like it they play it.... Music is for them, and we are lucky enough to have Metallica share that music with us, and i will always appreciate that....
Thank you :amaze:

ummm how can anyone say st anger isnt metal......? , i reckon st angers a lot better than people are giving it credit for

Well metal isn't just about the music... it's alot about how you act etc... they've become more mainstrem (which is very UNMETAL)... Some of the newer albums are just about making money etc......

[QUOTE=geetarfreak]I never listened to that song orion,because it had a crappy synth start,but i gave it a chance the other day,and wot a gr8 song!!! :cool:[/QUOTE]

I don't believe it's synth... our bassist nearly gets the same sound by distortion...

[QUOTE=supra_speed]Metallica died a long time ago. Heck they're not even metal any more. Sad isnt it :(. Wish they held themseleves together like Megadeth and Slayer.[/QUOTE]

Someone hasn't seen them live, any guesses who :rolleyes:

They've got an album coming out soon, so they're hardly dead. They just got off of two tours full of playing old music, so they're not only alive but playin metal. We don't know what the new album will be like

[QUOTE]Well metal isn't just about the music... it's alot about how you act etc... they've become more mainstrem (which is very UNMETAL)... Some of the newer albums are just about making money etc......[/QUOTE]

It's become more mainstream because more and more people are growing onto it. It's not so much that the music and style has changed, its that more and more people like it.

well as long as the new album is better than St Anger, IMO thats the worst album they have ever released.

[QUOTE=iliketoplaydrums10111]amen

can someone suggest more songs from metallica that are decent besides

master of puppets
fade to black
the one
enter sandman
the unforgivin

i know there is more, those are just the ones im familiar with:)[/QUOTE]

there are better songs such as
orion,unforgiven II, damage inc, the battery thing that should not be,sad but true,dont tread on me, and so on there all good but obviously if thats all u can name u dont even like metallica

Has anyone else noticed that metal is becoming a style now a days? Like kids will go out and buy a motorhead t-shirt because of the cool art on it (and Motorhead is such a sweet name for a band) but then they hear ace of spades on the radio or whatever and most of them would probably be like "what the f*** is this garbage??"

edit: Probly doesn't belong in the Metallica thread but i value your guys' opinion more than most.

yeh that is very true

[QUOTE=sack-man]yeh, there'd better be some on the next album....riffs / vocals fill the gaps between solos![/QUOTE]

yea agreed. they need to put in solos. fans don't wanna see two rhythm guitarists on stage when you have an amazing rhythm guitarist and an amazing soloist

[QUOTE=leppermessiah]Hey gocaps what happened to your 4th star??[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=vashts80]Rep is gone. Look in the Site subforum.[/QUOTE]
