What's the newer album after DM? I love some of Metallica rock songs. Fuel and I disappear are fun

Hardwired to Self-Destruct, and it is much better than Death Magnetic. Those two songs you mentioned are terrible. You need to listen to some Master of Puppets/And Justice For All.

This EXACTLY - rep

anesthesia pulling teeth :D

As someone who toured in a regional metalcore band growing up, the main problem with metal is the local "scene" is filled with some of the most spiteful people and they hate any band that isn't theirs. When I was younger I was guilty of it for YEARS. It's driven off pure jealousy. Once you step up to touring with semi-known and known bands, it gets better, but they still have something to say because everyone is competitive / hungry.

With Metallica, they're the top dog. So naturally, they'll have something to say because that will NEVER be them and the metal scene can't handle that. There may never be another Metallica, but there will be other metal bands that will be great. So they'll nitpick on anything with Metallica - "not good since the black album, Lars sucks, James doesn't sound like 1991, don't listen to anything with Cliff, they sold out" etc. At 21 they wrote "Master of Puppets", probably the greatest metal song in history and at 53, they created a new album that had songs like "Spit out the Bone". A song that pretty much says we can still do this and quite well.

I've progressed through the scenes in my life and I still listen to all sorts of metal. Stuff like grindcore, power-metal, viking-metal, DJENT, metalcore, progressive, thrash and the list goes on and on. Sure there are bands that are heavier, tighter, faster, more technical but in the end, it's Metallica that made heavy metal as popular as it is. It was never designed to be that popular, but they pushed it to that level.

Just my two cents.....

While I do listen to growlers and like a lot of it, I will say this...

Metal will never take over the world again as long as no one can figure out how make metal without it.

That's pretty good. I haven't listened to them in awhile and haven't really heard the newer stuff. Sounds a little like Mastodon to me, which is a good thing.

Yeah, Opeth is an acquired taste. Even with their older stuff with a lot of growling vocals, they sang normal half the time. I always wondered why they didn't do that more often as I thought the singer had a good voice.

This + other factors.

I haven't been a huge fan of Metallica's newer efforts, but the new album is worth a listen. They definitely threw it back to the 80's on a few tracks.

If you haven't heard this yet, give it a shot. "Spit Out the Bone"...2:30 in is the best thing they've done since Justice. Legitimately a thrash metal song, which is nice.

Ya know what, that new Metallica isnt bad at all... probably the closest thing to their old school stuff that I've heard in a long time

The video veers from epically cool to awfully cheesy at times, but still thats a very cool song/video combo from those guys

Metallica teaches....
