[QUOTE=iluvkirkhammett]Lol. I am that transparent?


Nah, Cliff was different. Jason was an awesome back up vocalist, Cliff was the better soloist. Jason uses a pick, Cliff never did. You know how it goes.[/QUOTE]
You play Bass? Or perhap Guitar?

[QUOTE=Khaos]Cliff was tons better than Jason! I never really cared for Jason, his lines were kinda ****ty.[/QUOTE]
Bloody hell. :rolleyes:

Can we stop the Cliff vs Jason crap already? It's all subjective opinion ffs.

Jason tried to be a guitar player on the bass while Cliff tried to be Geezer Butler...I think he know who is better and it's not a subjective option. if you look at tab or see there solos Cliff is the better bass player for sure

123. Besides, it's been done a million times over.


Any new word on the new album? I hear that they're getting close to being done.

Skill isn't the only factor when comparing guitar/bass players.

This is also true, stage presence and the ability to work with your bandmates are also equally important.

Ahhhhh, it's nice to be back here.

Just sounding good helps too. Who cares how fast you can play if you can't EQ an amp or play in key?

Nice to have you back. :wave:

Well they're currently on their holiday break, for two weeks, then they'll be back at it. I heard rumours of solos...!

OMGOMGOMG!
/giddy

Didn't kirk say in some interview that they're definetely bringing back solos?

[QUOTE=iluvkirkhammett]Well they're currently on their holiday break, for two weeks, then they'll be back at it. [B]I heard rumours of solos...[/B]![/QUOTE]

Despite what Metallica might think, solos have always been a staple of theirs and to toss them out is just unheard of. Kinda like me just up and chucking out my guitar for no reason.

i never said myung was the end all, be all of bassists simply because there can't be a BEST ever musician.

but myung pretty much destroys cliff.
but that's not relevant.

trujillo plays that bass so low... O_o reminds me of donkey kong or something. idk.

Kirk said in Guitar World that solos are back on

almost done....they started at the end of November...talk about being quick

you guys basically made it sound like Cliff was better because A.) he had a better relationship with his bandmates and b.) his stage presence is unmatched but I think Jason had a better sound but it was a bit to guitary...Rod has to have the best bass sound though

[QUOTE=KingJay]Just sounding good helps too. Who cares how fast you can play if you can't EQ an amp or play in key?

I take it you are a musician as well? Very good points so far......

Thanx, I've taking some much needed time off for writing. It's being a bitch but I'll manage. Good stuff'll come to me eventually.

Seriously though, I was expecting mario to just jump out of nowhere and smack Rob on the head with a hammer!!! :lol:


I thought it was great how Kirk tripped right before dirty window. That was about as bad as James forgetting the lyrics to the live paris version of RTL on the SKOM soundtrack cd.:lol:

they Kirk tripping was funny though they didn't show it James was laughing so hard...I thought when Kirk asked James if it made him giggle was funny James was like "yeah it made me giggle inside"

Or when James sings the 2nd verse instead of the 1st at BigDayOut, you can download it somewhere...

[QUOTE=random dave]What's your band called? Cos I saw a local band play in kent and they covered for whom the bell tolls, enter sandman, and maiden's fear of the dark.[/QUOTE]

Well we haven't played any gigs yet, we formed only a few months ago, fear of the dark by Maiden is another one we do. but we r concentrating on our own material

[QUOTE=BLS_Infernus]if you watch the St. Anger rehersal DVD he moves around like Donkey Kong :lol:[/QUOTE]
He has that constant Stance that he does. Then, he puts on 'Tough Guy' faces, and stares at Lars.

[QUOTE=RR_legend]i remember the first song i ever heard from them was Creeping Death. 2 days later i downloaded all of their songs. 3 months later i bought my first guitar.

Probably a good thing, some bands get so caught up doing covers that thye only write a few songs.

He forgot the words at Earl's Court '03. I just love the whole mumbling then
"I've forgot the fu[size=2]c[/size]king words..."

I need to see 'SKOM'

Yes you can, buy it.

Excellent.

Yeah just go to Play.com or something.

[QUOTE=Happy]Yeah just go to Play.com or something.[/QUOTE]
That I will. What is it anyways, an actual Film, or is it a documentary etc?

[QUOTE=Doctor Night V.2.0]That I will. What is it anyways, an actual Film, or is it a d0cumentary etc?[/QUOTE]
Rockumentary.
It's a docu-film I guess. Like Super Size me.

It's mostly a documentary about the St. Anger recording sessions with a few other little things like getting Rob and all that stuff

[QUOTE=lightningmetal666]

Yeah thats quality.

"Chill out, it's just rehersal.", "Yeah I know. I'm all excited and sh[SIZE="2"]i[/SIZE]t"

And James forgeting the lyrics. It so corny when he goes into the chorus again. "I forgot the fu[SIZE="2"]ck[/SIZE]ing words.......Flash before my eyes, now its time to die. There they are!"

[QUOTE=Joe]Yea that's a pretty good tab

He also forgets the words on the St. Anger rehesal.

On the "I need to set my anger free!". The first time round his brain goes to mush, he just goes "And I want my anger na-mae-lee" :lol:

i have fade to black live with a wah on the solo
it sounds sweet but definitly better without

Ugh, the last thing Kirk needs is more wah. He should have all of his wah pedals taken away from him.

[QUOTE=Thor]Ugh, the last thing Kirk needs is more wah. He should have all of his wah pedals taken away from him.[/QUOTE]

His wah pedal is an extension of his personality, and he said that they would have to chop off his legs to stop him from using it.

[QUOTE=Thor]Ugh, the last thing Kirk needs is more wah. He should have all of his wah pedals taken away from him.[/QUOTE]

And he needs to have the back of his had slapped and told, "NO!"

I like to rework some of my songs too, but I know when not to overdo it.
