So, when people say Metallica sucks, they haven't done anything since "X" album....I'm thinking...dude, I played that style of music exclusively for 5 years and got sick of it/bored. Metallica has been doing it since, what, 1981? By the time Black came out, they were probably a little bored with it too and wanted to branch out a bit and explore new sounds. By Load and Re Load - and after that HUGE Black album tour - they were probably even more bored/tired of it. I just can't imagine playing music like Blackened, Metal Militia, , Dyers Eve, Damage Inc....for 30 + years lol.

So from my POV, although I REALLY liked Kille Em All through Black; I enjoyed everything post black too. Maybe not as much as I did the earlier stuff, but I didn't classify it as "suck". If St. Anger was mixed/produced better, I'd probably like it alot more than I do. I just can't get over the tingy snare drum sound that seems to be at the very forefront of the mix. It's like he changed snare drums for that album (i don't know alot about drums). ...so not sure if it was the drum, or the mix...but that album made my ears hurt from a sonic perspective.

Couldnt agree more that people shouldnt blame long lived bands for experimenting with their style/sound, they get bored doing the same old thing just like the rest of us

By nature, artists need to experiment to keep themselves interested in what they're doing

Then I got older and discovered bands like Opeth, Dream Theater, Between the Buried and Me, Periphery, Burn the Priest/Lamb of God, Scar Symmetry, August Burns Red, Mors Principium Est.. the list goes on

After listening to stuff like this....
(0peth)

I forgot all about Metallica

Check out a project band called Ayreon, Into the Electric Castle and The Dream Sequencer are terrific rock albums, I highly recommend if you like Opeth and Dream Theater, and other prog metal bands. I can't go back.

These guys get me pretty fired up like those old albums did:

And Corey Taylor wore a ****ing gay ass mask for christs sake.

Try listening to the lyrics of just about any AC/DC song.

Legendary riffs but the lyrics are mierda.

Haha, well those guys never claimed to be trying to reinvent the wheel... but at least Bon Scotts lyrics were cheeky and full of wit

Brian Johnson, not so much

Since this thread isn't about Metallica (**** Lars Ulrich) anymore and all about random band videos:

Dayze · 03-23-2017, 04:38 PM

I like some of the death metal stuff when I hear it for the first times. I'm like "killer guitar....drums are awesome"...then it goes to ".....aaaaaaaaaaand, the singer sucks"; click, and shut it off. lol

KCUnited · 03-23-2017, 04:40 PM

This song is called "****ed, Stabbed, and Eaten".

"Where's the falsetto?!?!"
