as EVERYONE in the world LOVES metallica

[Transcend]

Yep, I loved everything up to and including the Black album.

To be fair, I never actually listened to St. Anger or anything else they did after Reload (was there something else?), but as Ilyti points out it all sounds a bit like an attempt to rediscover roots which aren't there any more. Maybe thats harsh as if they had never left them in the first place I probably wouldn't be writing this ... but I'm only human and damn it I'm entitled to my emotionally driven responses to these things ;)

i dissapear.

And the S&M concert was awesome the dvd is great in surround sound really loud. I think hetfields voice was at its best on this DVD

Oh yeah. I also thought Jar Jar Binks was a great character. the only good thing about the newer starwars films.

...several people in my year love it  :?  seriously: LOVE

I wonder how many of the people that LOVED "Ride the Lightning", "Mast of Puppets", or "...And Justice for All" loved Load?

i loved it just as much, different band basically, but load is seriously underrated. top notch songs there.

[JDC]

anyone heard of an economics thing called the superstar effect?

well anyway because of it metallica could record an album of snail sounds, and it would still sell a billion

Anyways all of this aside.

What does everyone actually think of the new clips? Or is your hatred so much that you didn't give it a  chance?

Sounds better than St Anger, but I'm curious to see how the sounds develop.

But the first new solo clips we hear of Kirk and what do we hear? WAH! wow! never heard him use that before. Some one should hit him with it and make him realise he doesn't have to use it for EVERYTHING.

Metallica is still a band?? I thought they died off after the Black album.

[Ratrod]

I like what I heard at the end of that clip.

I'm looking forward to the album.

:lol: Point taken :) I just listened to the clip.

I guess it's promising, what little of it there is (at least there might be some Kirk lead playing this time around, just hope he's not forgotten how to!).  We'll just have to wait & see how the end product turns out...

The bit about halfway through sounds pretty good, great riffage. Kirk playing his only solo as usual :lol: :P

Sounds MUCH better than St Anger at any rate.

I gave up on Metallica years ago, they're not even that good live anymore either - they sound like a Metallica covers band.

I think that too, and most people get moody at me. They change the songs in the same way live every time, sure they rotate the set list a bit, but its the same damn show

[MrBump]

I thought it was OK.

Metal-Ayeka suffer from the same thing as any band that sticks around too long; the lose the cool underground vibe and become the establishment.  That doesn't make them bad, just like Bono acting like a nob doesn't necessarily make U2 bad...

I loved Master of Puppets, And Justice For All, and the Black album.  Load was OK.  But I'll always listen to what they do.

BUT I STILL CAN'T STAND KIRK HAMMETTS PLAYING OR TONE!!!!!

Mark.
