*satire* Metallica goes off the deep end. *satire*

Umm, this is almost certainly satirical, analogous to the Microsoft article a while back saying they were going to patent binary.

Huh? That's like me saying "You're an idiot". Now prove that it is false.

For all we know it's still a rumor and it sounds like it has to be a fake to me. But most of you are saying "I sure hope it isn't true" but then go on to bash Metallica as if it were. Just don't judge them until you know for sure. It's hard to see so many people turn against one of thee greatest Rock Bands of all time.

you know what Stojakapimp? It is cool now days for the younger kids to bash Metallica, so they think they need to do it as well. They young uns (I'm 26 by the way) don't understand or appreciate the great music and the broad range of music that Metallica has put out. Metallica has been playing longer than a lot of the people here were alive and are still VERY popular, that should tell you something. So let them bash Metallica and not go to there concerts. That way I won't have to fight off a bunch of rock-rap, Limp Bizcuit loving kids at the concerts. Let them go buy their 3 power chord "metal" CDs.

But they're NOT.
All Metallica is good at is creating sweeping rock ballads lasting for hours with no redeeming value because they all sound the same. Yes, I've listened to Load, Reload, ...And Justice for All, and St. Anger, and I don't like any of it because it's all the same freaking chords with James Hetfield's annoying wannabe hard rocker voice messing things up more.

Plus, Lars and crew are complete buttramming cockholster asshats who are obsessed with money and give not one ounce of crap about anyone else, including their fans. They can suck it.

you didn't even mention their best album fagbait. Why don't you keep your mouth shut since you obviously have no idea what you are talking about.

Ooh, another fanboy come to start a flamewar.
I'm bashing the band, not the listeners.
If you want to start with the namecalling because I'm insulting your boy toy Lars, then you're just making it easier for people to label you crap-rock junkies as childish windowlickers. Why don't you grow up and learn to respect that people have different opinions and may dislike, or *gasp* even HATE the same group of hackjob rockers that you hold so dear to your heart? This is the real world, duder, and if you can't deal with the fact that not everyone shares the same tastes, maybe you should go climb back up into mommy's womb until you're ready to act like a sensible individual.

Hey look, another person who thinks it is cool to bash Metallica b/c they didn't like the Load and Reload albums. Read my eariler post amnesiac. I'm not going to get into name calling and I can understand other poeple's opinions and that they might be different but to say that "it's all the same freaking chords with James Hetfield's annoying wannabe hard rocker voice messing things up more" is totally untrue. Have you listend to their their old stuff? They can absolutely SHRED and are one of the most musically diverse groups out there ranging from Kill 'em All (heavy, hard, fast) to some of the Re-Load stuff (slow ballads). You can bash them if you want but your reasons show your ignorance for their music. Btw, who do you listen to?

Summer Sanitarium in Atlanta didnt sell out for a reason, they have simply overstayed their welcome...people simply aren't interested anymore.

Your a total waste of space. I know your bashing the band you moron. Why dont you try and listen to their best albums before you form an opinion? I could care less if you don't like the band or not, but don't come spewing on here that you hate them when you really have no clue about their early work. Better yet, why not read an INTELLIGENT, INFORMED OPINION. Pay close attention to the last line in the review you complete and total dickhead.

Ahhhh Master of Puppets. Released when i was a senior in High School, god we played the hell out of that album.

 
where are you amnesiac? I put up a perfectly good post in rebuttle to yours but no reply from you. I wanted a normal debate without name calling but apparently I don't warrant a response....or you know you were owned 😉
 
There's a reason everybody was so quick to believe it... because Metallica have turned themselves into everything that they used to be pissed off about.
Now don't get me wrong Old Skool metallica kicks more than a little ass but they've sucked fat munkey nuts ever since the black album.

Amen!
 
I plan on suing anyone that uses the D and G chords, since I created a guitar riff that uses those in that order 😀
 
Then I'm going to sue Metallica for using the words "People are" in that order because I often say "People are stupid" and anybody know knows me knows I use that phrase a lot... so it's kind of become my own.

Not every person bashing Metallica these days is a nu-metal junkie.

My buddy Bok, who's an insane drummer, owns something in the neighborhood of 2,000 CDs and listens to just about every kind of music on the face of the planet, hates the new Metallica CD.

I hate the new Metallica CD.

I hate Nu Metal.

On that note:

DREAM THEATER CONCERT TONITE! WOOT!
