Metallica sucks.

I like everything they've put out, when viewed as appealing to different genres. Can't wait to see them with Machine Head AND Down during this tour season.

Where is Lars' thousand word essay on the subject?

Metallica VS Megadeth

What say you?

Everyone of these self possessed, pampered, over-hyped so called musicians (of which Metallica is only one example) should be forced to sit through the entire "This is Spinal Tap" movie with someone sitting beside them saying "yup... that's just how you look" at all of the appropriate moments.

I remember watching an interview with Keith Richards who was lounging in a luxury, 5 star hotel room, having been chauffered there in a luxurious stretch limo from his luxurious private jet, whinning about how much of a "drag" touring is.

Pinheads.

What say you?

Huh, that's a tough one. Probably Metallica. I download every Metallica and Megadeth song I can, and sadly I think that only amounts to like one Megadeth song.

You'd have to be a delusional egomaniac to get on stage and play the kind of vomitous noise they've been cranking out since Day One.

Yeah, I said it. Metallica sucks and always has.

DeathByGeekSquad: I like everything they've put out, when viewed as appealing to different genres. Can't wait to see them with Machine Head AND Down during this tour season.

As do I, except for St. Anger. I couldn't tolerate it. The new single is not bad.

...And Justice for All is still my favorite album.

Peace sells is probably the only Megadeth Album I enjoy. But I love it to death.

I still found their album with the orchestra the best. Still listen to it now and then.

the news songs released are pretty good. the end riff/riff/riff/solo/riff/solo/riff thing is very cool

If "egomaniacs" means "pussies", then yeah, he's right.

I understand that they had families to consider, but James should never have gotten off the booze. He also never should have let the rest of the band in on the writing process.

You can tell that he is just so miserable handing over the reins to them in that movie.

The bottom line is: if you want to rock, don't pick up a wife and kids until you are ready to stop.

Sorry, but I choose "...and Justice for All" as my favorite album, but "Trapped Under Ice" is my favorite song.

Everything before the black album, including Kill Em All, I loved.

Everything after the black album, I hated, including the first single released for the new album.

'Garage Days Re-visited' is bad-ass.

//everything after 'Justice' sucks etc.

Does the stuff that Mustaine wrote for Metallica count for Metallica, Megadeth, or for neither band?

Both.

After watching Some Kind of Monster, I really wanted to kick the shiat out of Lars. I still do.

//You want to talk ego? MegaDave takes the win there!

DrakeLabatt: //You want to talk ego? MegaDave takes the win there!

David Lee Roth singing for Megadeth?

Awesome.

"Some Kind Of Monster" was unintentionally hilarious. Hetfield driving to the studio looking like a tough biker and then acting like a big baby when he got there.

Lars: "You're a big, freakin' baby, plus you can't sing worth squat. Go set yourself on fire again."
James: "You hurt my feelings and you have a Napoleon complex. I quit."
Kirk: "I'm going surfing."
Bob Rock: "Let's get some beers and go see the shrink."

AJFA is also my fave.. and its been said that James is taking over songwriting again, so hopefully that works out for them.

As far as them being egomaniacs, every enormously successful band is full of egomaniacs. it takes that kind of mental state to actually become that successful. if you dont think you're the best you're never going to get there in the modern music environment

You would have figured that they were egomaniacs when their bass player told them to fark off before he walked out on them.

James is just mad ...

METAL!

Bah. Hetfield is dead to me. He, and his Mammon worshiping ilk, died when the began suing their own fan base.

/I will never support any RIAA band

This is from the other thread. Just thought I'd post it for great justice for all..

"YEAH! FARK HIM FOR HAVING EMOTIONS! PEOPLE SHOULD BE ROBOTS!

You hurt my feelings. I'm not a robot you know.

Robots have feelings too.

Thanks, but I'll take Iron Maiden or Motorhead any day.

But I like Kirk :(

Indeed. And Justice for All > Ride the Lightning.

I'm glad that they made the documentary, if only to be a warning to other bands on how NOT to conduct their business.

You're writing an album and recording songs and you don't even THINK about hiring a bassist until you've finished the farking album? That's what shocked me the most.

Oh, and the douchebag psychiatrist that just wouldn't leave.

Metallica ceased to be "metal" decades before SKOM, but that was just pathetic.

I've always liked Metallica, musically at least until St. Anger. I was able to dig the changes the music went through as they actually grew up and things weren't all about being pissed off all the time. Maybe its because I listen to a moderately broad range of music.

Now personality wise, these guys are asshats, although Kirk has always seemed pretty cool. Lars can DIAF, James needs to stop listening to his therapist and just freakin channel all the pissed off crap into the music instead of trying to talk things through with people.

/Ride the Lightning is still the best they ever did though

John the Magnificent: Everyone of these self possessed, pampered, over-hyped so called musicians (of which Metallica is only one example) should be forced to sit through the entire "This is Spinal Tap" movie with someone sitting beside them saying "yup... that's just how you look" at all of the appropriate moments.

I remember watching an interview with Keith Richards who was lounging in a luxury, 5 star hotel room, having been chauffered there in a luxurious stretch limo from his luxurious private jet, whinning about how much of a "drag" touring is.

Pinheads.

It is a drag. Why ride around with their equipment in a cube van? Goodness knows enough performers have experienced that, and it is, I can tell you, a drag. Things like limos and jets just make the drag aspect less draggy.

A fun game to play with the new single is fast forward to the 4 minute mark and try to figure out how many of their own songs they rip off in the last 4 minutes.

XM radio has a Metallica station this month. I like everything up to and including the self titled. The rest is crap.

All egomaniacs except for Jason, the movie showed that he had integrity.

Actin like an egomaniac,
WHIPLASH!

Not really into Metallica (not a metal head) but I had respect for them. They should have stopped that movie from beig released. They came off as a bunch of pampered, whiny women. And Lars is the worst of them (and not that great of a drummer).

Metallica is dead to me. I'm going to pirate their new shiatty album and then probably never listen to it.
