In general, I really like old skool Metallica. That's what I grew up with. 😉

The newer Metallica is iffy.

English is not my native language so kiss both sides of my ass in whichever order you like.

Wooah

well American english is supposed to be the hardest to learn.

I have been working at it for 45+ years and still mess up. 😉

I miss Napster.
I broke my Metallica cd.
 
Metallica was the first heavy metal band I started to listen to back when I was 13, I still love there older stuff but some of the new stuff is dissapointing, I only need an original copy of GARAGE DAYS and LOAD to complete my collection.
 
"New" Metallica (new as in "Hey that guy from Sound Garden looks SUPER hot, so let's all play makeover and look JUST LIKE HIM and homogenize our music so everyone likes us!!") revolts me. I would download five copies of every song they've ever made just to spite them but my revulsion overpowers my sense of spite.

Ok, take away their history of formerly being one of the greatest metal bands of all time and take their music for what it's worth; it's right down there with nickleback, godsmack, and any whiney voiced, pointy haired boy band calling themselvs "punk rockers!" It's crap; it's banal, insignificant, rambling, incoherent, self aggrandized, high fructose corn syrup with just a HINT of Nyquil.

WHISKEY IN THE GYRO?!?!? SHUT UP, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, JUST STOP!!!!

K, I'm going to go repeatedly slam my head in the nearest door to hopefully interrupt my aneurism.
 
nay until they make up for that st anger crap. it's nice that they got therapy, but if this is the result, they may as well just break up and live happily ever after on their millions.

that song rocked harder than anything on St. Anger. 😛
 
While they do kick ass in concert, ever since the Napster thing (where they showed their true colors), I've lost respect for them. While the symphony thing was interesting, the Ja Rule thing was horrible.

So... NAY.

*cough cough*

first of all, it's Whiskey in the jar-o," not "gyro," and secondly, that song is a cover of a Thin Lizzy song, which rocks hard.

Oh, and while Newsted may have a great guy, neither him nor Trujillo can even hold a candle to Cliff Burton. That man was a machine on the bass, and wrote the best riffs ever. His death was the single most pivotal event in Metallica's career and is what started them on their downfall. If Cliff were still alive, I have no doubt that would still be writing music like RtL and MoP.

Its Whiskey in the Jar. Released in 1973, originally by Thin Lizzy. I should know, because I am Phil Lynott.
 
James' voice isn't what it used to be. It was fine through Re-Load, but I think all those concerts have taken it's toll on his voice. I saw them for the 10th time a few months ago, and he sounds nowhere near as good as he used to be.

Bob Rock needs to go as well.

From what I heard, james actually blew out his vocal cords during the Black tour, and needed to hire a voice trainer to retrain his voice, and ever since that it hasn't been the same. The production on Load and Reload were what saved him, but it's obvious in concerts that his voice isn't what it used to be.
