Those "Metallica Sucks" avatars are really showing who the mature ones on the forum are.

Since when did people have Metallica sucks avatars?

[QUOTE=clairvoyant]Since when did people have Metallica sucks avatars?[/QUOTE]

Check out a thread in the pit, something about this guy jamming with Lars. A good few people in their are sporting Metallica Sucks avatars. Most of them post in R&M.

edit:

NVM all that. They're just giving the threadstarter a hard time.

Since never, just some idiots who think people care about their avatars.

The people who whine about it are even worse

[QUOTE=fade 2 blackened]anyone ever noticed a similarity between RTL, MOP, and AJFA? For example, the first songs have cool intros and are very thrashy, the second song on each is the title track, and the fourth song on each are the ballads. It was probably intentional.[/QUOTE]

I mentioned that awhile ago.

1- Awesome intro (either acoustic or electric) that leads into an awesome thrashy song
2- title track
3- not the best track on any album, heavy head banger but not very good
4- ballads. incredible. these 3 songs are easily 3 of their best songs. and they start with a similar intro, each has
D--4--
A-2--- in them

and i haven't noticed any further similarities

intelligent :thumb: :rolleyes:

it's not a big deal. you shouldn't bash bands like that. i could have an avatar that said i hate tool and they'd bash me

Hey that guy said he jammed with Lars in Toronto (I think..?), but aren't they supposed to be in the studio right now?

Hey guys can I get a hand. I'm trying to learn the 2nd solo in Sanitarium. I've been using [URL=http://mxtabs.net/tabs.php?path=Guitar,m,799,Metallica,Sanitarium+W%2F+All+Solos,219538]this[/URL] to guide me. The first few seconds were easy enough. but I get to [URL=http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v642/6thedition/tab.jpg]here[/URL] before I start getting confused. I've used Windows Media Player to slow it down and try reading the tab at the same time to get a sense of the timing, but I just can't get my head around it. Can one of you guitar gurus sort me out. Is it accurate tab or am I a silly head? Any help appretiated :thumb:

your best bet would be to use Powertab for it, heres a link [url]http://www.powertabs.net/[/url]

good luck!

What do you use to read tab you download from that site?

Ok so you need help on the middle on? not the really tough one but the one btwn verses? Ok it's pretty easy. He uses the same scale as always. There's a little bit of harmony at the beginning, but you don't need to worry about that unless you're recording. It's not really any faster than the intro solo.

for the:
---1-----2-----1----2
E--------17--------15---etc-------------
B--17/15-----15/14----------------------

the top line is the fingers i find easiest until you need to use the 3 on the lower frets. try that out

[QUOTE=Metal_Head_617]The whole thing was a lie.[/QUOTE]
Oh probably... he didn't think that out to well.

It was rediculous though, he met Lars and Lars wanted to jam. Lars never wants to jam unless it's with his band members.
Also if he would've jammed then that would've counted as practice and everyone knows Lars doesn't practice.

Yeah, the whole thing was pretty improbable.

I'm cunfuzd n scared :(

Yea you hear stuff like that all the time. on another subject one of my friends
got to jam with Dimebag a couple weeks before he died:(

On the topic from here: [url]http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?p=9685682#post9685682[/url]

[quote=Arise II]I actually enjoyed Load. And while some more thrash would be nice, I wouldn't want another KEA - retro bands are crap, and it would be rather boring to hear yet another band sounding like '83. A lot of thrah bands have managed to maintain a thrashy sound without being dated.

But yeah, this really belongs in the official 'Tallica thread[/quote]
I can't really say I love Load, it's not horrible, but I can safely save I prefer St. Anger to Load..

It was a new approach to Thrash (imo) whether or not it was a successful approach is a matter of opinion (I'd say no, but that doesn't mean I wouldn't like it if they just played it same old (Standard tuning, standard drum sound, variety to the songs, at least a sort of interlude (Let Hetfield do some 'solos!' :p)), I think had they released it a few years earlier, and not tried to change so much about [b]their style[/b] in one go it would have probably been successful and people might have said it was Metallica's comeback album ( :confused: ) - By successful here, I don't mean comercial success (afaik St. Anger was a comercial success?) I mean success to the Metallica fans.

Meh, can't think right now, I might add some more to this...

It's not that hard to understand. The /'s are slides.

No you have not. Appriciate it. :thumb:

Just wondering. If there is a top100 drummers poll how many of you would vote for Lars?
I know I wouldn't.

[QUOTE=Happy]Just wondering. If there is a top100 drummers poll how many of you would vote for Lars?

I'd vote hetfield over Lars. :p

[QUOTE=Happy]Just wondering. If there is a top100 drummers poll how many of you would vote for Lars?

I wouldn't vote for lars, but would vote for some mainstream drummers though. I'd definetely vote for hetfield if he gets into singers/frontman polls.

[QUOTE=Chu](afaik St. Anger was a comercial success?)[/QUOTE]

I dont think it was a commercial success. But then again, KEA wasn't commercially successful either.

Hetfield can do anything. and I wouldn't vote for lars.

Mmm, I'd imagine Lars wouldn't get that many votes and the ones he does are from the extreme fanboys.

[QUOTE=PepsiMetal]I dont think it was a commercial success. But then again, KEA wasn't commercially successful either.[/QUOTE]
I don't think Metallica achieved commercial success until Black album (Maybe ..AJFA?). I don't know the record sales, I wouldn't mind seeing how many albums St. Anger has sold compared to Kill 'em All..

Metallica (1991) /14 /December 2003
...And Justice For All (1988)/ 8 /June 2003
Master of Puppets (1986)/ 6 /June 2003
Garage Inc. (1998) /5 /January 2000
Ride The Lightning (1984)/ 5/ June 2003
Load (1996)/ 5 /June 2003
S & M (1999)/ 5 /June 2003
Kill 'Em All (1983) /3 /March 1999
Reload (1997) /3 /November 1998
St. Anger (2003) /2 /July 2003
Garage Days Revisited(1987)/ 1/ July 1990
Record/millions sold/year.

Yea but kill em all probably didn't sell much until after black/AJFA album was released and people actually heard of metallica. But I guess St. anger was the least commercially successful metallica album, even though it isn' the worst.

Garage Inc. is the worst commercially.

Sweet, cheers for that.

St. Anger was a flop it seems?

It hasn't been out as long as the others plus the sales numbers are pretty old.

I heard St. Anger sold 5 million? I know I bought one. :D

:upset:

[QUOTE=Darkness Of Greed]I know I bought one. :D[/QUOTE]
Same :D

yeah i bought one........plus it won grammys and ****
