Yeah I know it spapad....the next album "The Black Album" was the nail in the coffin. I know some people on here like this album,but really....it was NOT Metallica at all.
It was far far far too commercial and Hetfield with a pretty-boy hair-sprayed curls for the Enter Sandman video...wtf? lol! That whole album was so un-Metallica-like....
I remember when that was released and thinking to myself....this band is going down the drain.....but I still thought that someday they may change back......
and then the "Load" album came out...and I said to myself..."This band is done,end of story". And that was in 95' I think? Wow,what a lame outfit they really
have turned into. I would go as far as saying that Metallica is the WORSE disappointment in "MUSIC HISTORY"....out of all bands of all genres.

THAT is an effing cool image, J.D. The Halford montage. (I think that's the proper word, lol)
Anyway, my two cents on popularity: fuck that! Look at bands that "make it" big with the "popularity" thing-one example-Metallica. What the hell is going on with that "band"? There are tons of examples of bands that've hit huge peaks in popularity and then crashed and burned. Metal's not about popularity. Metal is about independence. Metal is a bunch of things, but popularity is mostly a side affect. A band that gets popular does so mostly on the basis of things done BEFORE that band got popular anyway.
On the flip side, in my opinion, a band that's gained huge amounts of fans shouldn't be looked down on for that simple fact. Iron Maiden's more popular with the kids for some reason, I can't explain it. When I heard Dickinson's voice, I had to get more albums. Same with Geoff Tate. For a long time, the classic rock station I grew up listening to would play about half of the songs off of Empire-possibly the most commercial and pop metal album ever. The same with Metallica's Black Album. I grew up with these albums, I loved hearing the songs, but these are the "accessable" albums from bands. Once hearing it, 50 listens later, does it stick? "Run to the Hills" is no match compared to "Still Life." Living After Midnight is a fun song, everyone likes it, everyone knows it, but what of Beyond the Realms of Death? Only a metal head, and more specifically a Priest fan would know and appreciate that song. Popularity has nothing to do with quality, shouldn't be used as a measuring stick in comparing bands.
Here's a funny thing. I had in my possession a tape of Screaming for Vengeance as a freshman in high school. Did I like it at the time? Nope! I was heavy into Scorpions, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, Uriah Heep, Alice in Chains, and Metallica at the time. I heard You Got Another Thing Coming on the radio a zillion times, so I didn't really think anything of it. It wasn't until I was handed a copy of Priest's greatest hits as a Junior that my eyes were opened. What were the songs that "hooked" me? Number one? Turbo. LOL. It was the most unique song off that disc, and I'd never heard it before. A close number two was Metal Meltdown, which had that ripping beginning, Diamonds and Rust had a neat vibe to it, and The Green Manilishi also stuck with me. From there, l was a fan. |

Well, like most here, I AM a Maiden fan (pre-Fear, to be sure) but I have absolutely NO clue what your comment to me actually means. Perhaps you could dumb it down a bit but it seems to contraditct itself in one sentence.
To help. I WAS a fan of Paul but also feel that he was insulting and even is a sad version of his former self. To make fun of Rob while singing his song is just wrong. Plain and simple. Your comment makes absolutely no sense to me.

Paul..... WTF HAPPENED to you??? To think I used to actually LIKE you.... makes me sick to think about it. He's just pissed off that Rob made it and look where this guy is now, HA! He's not even fit to lick the METAL GODS boots, who does he think he is singing one of his songs? The other thing about this that really pissed me off is when the guitarist on the left started moving his guitar up and down like Glenn and KK do and Paul looked over at him and started laughing. Assholes..... song by a "friend" of mine? In my book, you don't treat your friends with disrespect and mock them. But you got yours Paul.... look at where you are playing and the crowd you are playing to, HA!
He's just pissed that Rob Halford IS and ALWAYS will be THE METAL GOD!!! Everyone knows who Rob Halford is and what an incredible voice he has, whether they are fans or not. Paul Di'anno WHO??? I don't remember anyone crying for HIM to come back like we all did when Rob left Priest.

Why don't you two just openly profess your love for J.D. and get over it?! Tell him how you want to hold and carress him! For if you don't have a big massive crush on him then you must just envy him because he has something you don't, and never will.
Class, and respect from the membership. Yes just fall to you knees and openly worship him, you know you want to! Do you have a shrine built to him in some secret back bedroom? I bet 'cha do! |
