Metallica's New Single...

[Wild One]

:2thumbs: :2thumbs:

Just heard Metallica's New single on theblazeonline.com and must say...it is very reminscent of the earlier days. I was very happy to hear Kirk shredding like he does best.

Can't wait to hear the rest of the album.

If there is one band i hate more than the new kids on the block, it's Metallica.
:nod:

[KapitanSparrow]

Agreed. Metallica is nothing without Dave Mustaine!

[Wild One]

Agreed. Metallica is nothing without Dave Mustaine!

To each is own.

I must say that most fans I've come in contact with don't agree with either of you. The Godsmack/Metallica show at the E Center a couple years back (03 I think) was absolutely sick and the thousands who attended would agree.

Call em sell outs or whatever else you'd like, but I'll continue to rock with them. Mustaine was good (but he was no god) and the band has changed quite a bit since those days. Some kind of monster was probably one of the worst albums of any metal band ever...

And i must say--never did I ever think I'd see New Kids on the Block in the same sentence as Metallica. Pretty funny actually.

But, like I said--to each his own.

The album is out in Sept. 12th I do believe. It will be a great day. Metallica Rocks!

deathcricket and captain :ne_nau: i am truly puzzled.

Each to his own. I would have loved to seen Metallica in concert but I was starving student at the time.

[Sombeech]

I've seen them a few times. Each succeeding concert would be less exciting for me.

There's just something about Kirk Hammett..... Dave Mustaine is definitely a better guitarist.

[abirken]

Saw them in a small venue when I was 15 in Houston.....maybe 300 people some small club, can't remember the name? They rocked and I didn't really know who they were. Saw them again in '88, bigger venue.......still rocked, knew who they were and became sold on their tunes. And again, TWO times in 89. Still rocked out. Saw them in 92, they sold out and I never went back.............Then saw them on Oprah crying and bitching at each other, whining like pussies, trying to make amends for stupid ego drama and I seriously NEVER went back. The bad-ass factor seriously fizzled after James asked for a tissue...........I think the episode was better suited for Dr. Phil. Sorry guys. :blahblah: :ne_nau:

[DaveOU812]

I am so with you Abirken. The old Metallica was and still is awesome. Everything Load on....complete $H!T. Dave Mustaine is a FAR better musician than the rest. And Some Kind of Monster??? WTF was that? I remember when Acca bought the CD and we listened to it while working in the garage. I made me sick.

I thought it was great when Alice In Chains gave them crap on MTV unplugged. They said they were going to play an LL Cool J song and it was Enter Sandman. Then the bassist had written on his bass "friends don't let friends cut your hair". Classic moment. Also one of the best performance to come from that series.

AGREED that was quite classic!

I love the Alice In Chains Unplugged. It's one of my all time favorites and an any time "go to" album. :rockit:

RIP Layne Staley. :hail2thechief:

I oh so miss the era of Grunge. A lot of great music came out then. Thank you Seattle! :cheers: :toker:

As for Metallica, I think that their music after they "sold out" is actually very good. I think that they became much better musicians overall and their songs were not so much about playing as fast as they possibly could and actually have some melody. They have definitely lost some of that "bad ass factor" as abirken stated. But I say they can still kick some rock n roll ass. I will continue to enjoy their contributions. :tunes:

Wrong thread guys. This is a thread about Metallica. The pet and animal thread is probably a couple pages back in the GENERAL category.

St. Anger was their last album. Some kind of monster was a television documentary.

Yeah they used to be hard . . .old news.

I am going to download it illegally and share it with everyone I know just to make Lars have to wait on that gold-platted shark tank he wants.

Lars sucks and so does Metallica!

Yup that was the other reason they pissed me off........the whole Napster ordeal. Whining like little girls about song sharing. Third strike, they were out in my book. :nono:

[Ride On]

it is a great improvment from st. anger

Still unimpressed. I enjoyed the slipknow videos I found after the metallica videos though.
