not necessarily, sometimes picks sound better for metal bass. Megadeth is a good example.

True. In general bassists who use picks are not great/recycled guitarists.

[QUOTE=MRDuCran]Then why isn't it on the video?[/QUOTE]Oh no, I'm wrong. Jus' ignore me :p

:rolleyes:
Cliff played like a recycled guitarist and everyone kisses his ***.

Nothing wrong with pick playing, sometimes its better to use a pick to get a certain type of tone.

Jason could play either way as can Rob.

I think bassists who play with picks have MUCH better sound.

There's 3 finger style bassists in my music class, and one that uses a pick, and he dominates them when he plays with a band and he's not even that good. It makes the overall mix alot more even if the bass is like that.

Justin Chancellor's tone on Tool's 10,000 Days is a perfect example of good pick bass.

all i can say about the new song is FUK YEEEAARRGGHH

cant fukin wait

keep headbangin.........

Yeah, the new album should be good, better than St. Anger, I'm sure. Although after hearing how they sound live now, I'm not so much excited for the new album as I am for another tour.

Honestly, I think this is the best they've sounded in years. Lars' drumming is right on, Kirk sounds super tight even on the faster, harder solos, James can actually hit the high notes without sounding squeaky or out of tune, and Rob finally got to show off how good he really is with them playing Orion.

So hopefully they'll be back on tour in North America within the next year.

It's pretty fuc[size=2]k[/size]ing sh[size=2]i[/size]t how many people over in the guitar don't appreciate Metallica, or even go as far as hating them.

Check it out:

^^ spam. when does metallica's new album come out anyways?

Early Spring next year I believe.

Next summer. Summer of 2007.

Hetfield says he wants to take his time doing it. Good to know they got rid of that Bob Rock bitch.

[quote=Flower Dance]Early Spring next year I believe.[/quote]

His time is too long.

That guy just fails at life.

Bob Rock is....Okay...not my favorite Metallica with him...but still better then 90% of the music out there.



What's up guys? anything new I should know about?

For anyone who's interested in having PDF copies of the Metallica tab books, download 'em here:

Not only for the Metallica books, but those are some fine links.

Hell yeah. Grab 'em while you can!

[quote=MRDuCran]Hell yeah. Grab 'em while you can![/quote]

Watch out. Lars is gonna see that and sue you all. (He still doesn't have enough paintings)

Heh, Metallica don't make any money from them books anyway, they're not official.

It's be kinda cool if Larz turned up at the door though.

does anyone know where to get live footage of orion....

keep headbangin

Why?

Actually it would. I'd punch him in the face. tbh

Youtube.

Reckon you can get hold of some bass versions aswell?

[quote=TEST]Why?

I bet you would, but I like Larz and the way he talks and acts. It's very far from me and what I'm like but it's definately entertaining to watch him.

I watched a signing session and he sat in front of mic and said, "...is this thing on...?"

I thought that was funny for some reason.

[quote=timmySmi]Reckon you can get hold of some bass versions aswell?[/quote]

I know there's a bass book for the Black album, but I doubt I could find it online.


I'll upload Orion live through yousendit perfect DVD quality if anyone wants.

Woah, thanks for the Pdfs.
That Frank Gambale one really helped :)

[QUOTE=hairydinosaurs]hey, is there anywhere to get a preview of their new song they played during the Escape tour, other than their own site?[/QUOTE]

What new song?

I'm confused by this post...

I'm guessing the "Escape Tour" was back during the RtL days...?


EDIT: Ohshi, he means Escape from the Studio, which is 2006.

[QUOTE=TojesDoLan]Good to know they got rid of that Bob Rock bitch.[/QUOTE]
123, Metallica changed so much under Bob Rock. I don't think he's to blame 100% but he played his part in the song-making process.

Damn I've had the Black Album tab book for like over 10 years. Iam looking for a Justice one.
