From what I hear, they're also supposed to be touring with Deftones this summer. At least, the two of them are coming to Lubbock.

Praying they play some of their own shows when they are out here, saw them with Isis and they seriously ripped it up.

They'll probably need this after touring with the lameness that is Deftones.

Surprised no one has ever gotten the play on words of that band's name.

LOL at least the Deftones have had some sort of relevance in the last 15 years.

Oh hey guys, apparently Metallica > Deftones now. Just thought you should know, I heard it from freedomofspeechnoway so I know it's true.

Anyway, I think it's good for Baroness to be getting recognition, but I can't be the only one here who despises Metallica...

wow, this is great to hear! i love Baroness, though i think they're extremely overrated. not a huge fan of modern Metallica, but like someone previously stated, it's nice to see them making some recognition.

Metallica's only good function is getting up-and-coming bands to open for them.

Everyone will hop on the Metallica bashing train, and I'm not really gonna argue against that, but the band kicks serious ass live, really put on a phenomenal show. This sounds like a pretty wicked metal show, glad for the press Baroness will be getting from this.

Well if you don't count album sales, ticket sales, awards, achievements, press exposure and coverage, then sure, Deftones have been more relevant than Metallica.

What criteria does that leave exactly? Your opinion?

LMAO, dude Deftones are hardly 90's nu-metal.
In my opinion (yeah see what I did there) Deftones have been more relevant because in the last 15 years, they have released albums that I want to listen to rather than Metallica's last 4 LP's which are a woeful attempt at trying to hang onto their glories of the 80's.

Are you Lars Ulrich?

No, that's what slayer is doing...which is why every album sounds almost exactly the same. And I find it funny that you call a band that goes plat on the first day that every album is released "trying to hang on".

Yea...reallllly hangin on there. They're juuuuuust scraping by.

You're hilarious.

Did someone just say... did they just say that Metallica... are BETTER than the DEFTONES?



...PLEASE! People? How can any self-respecting human being/muso ever, ever, ever not only make the comparison, but even dare to suggest that those Danish sell-out money-grabbing Napster-suing bastards Metallica could EVER, even hypothetically be BETTER than the Deftones. Seriously guys, never ever. Please don't anyone dare do that again, that shit scares me.

Oh, but they are. Deftones suck. Horrible vocals, laughable instrumentation, terrible lyrics...bad all around. Besides, their guitarist cites metallica as his motivation for even becoming a musician. He probably doesn't even agree with you.

No retard, I was talking about judging their relevance...when I said this:

None of those things are my opinion. Dictionary.com can provide you with a definition of the word "opinion" if you need it. Now beat it.

Yes the criteria I am using is my opinion, I have said that. Like I give a shit if a Metallica album goes Platinum in a day... or if they sell out a concert in 10 seconds. All it means is that lots of people like them and they have a fairly mainstream appeal, not that they are particularly good.

Pleanty of artists come along and sell a shitload of albums and get a stack of publicity but make rubbish music.

You fool, we were talking about relevance, not quality of music...and from the looks of it you just proved my point with that sentence.

I may be a douche but at least I know the definition of words and I'm not a goddamn idiot like you are.

Just as long as you realize that when people use facts to back up their point your opinion doesn't mean shit.

I hope you get help for your anger issues.

Every post you make on here devolves into this little game where you pick apart everything that those who don't agree with you post. Does that make you feel better when you are at home safe in front of your computer after the big kids picked on you again? Weren't you banned and your new bastardization of the 1st amendment moniker is your itty bitty protest?
