Yes Becks,they are "shit". I fucking HATE this band SOOO much it isn't even funny! I too like Guido was a huge Metallica fan from 1983 when I first heard Kill 'Em All when I was 13 years old to 1986 when Cliff Died.I still thought they were ok with the first Garage Days and the ...And Justice album wasn't my thing,and even though they kinda sold out by making the One video,they still could of "stayed" at the level of "metal" music in ...And Justice For All....if they would of kept that style and image all these years they may have turned out alright,but noooooo they had to drag thier band and name through the mud! Cliff would be turning over in his grave if he heard what they did to his band!!!!!!

I look at Metallica and instantly I shake my head in disgust. What a bunch of nerds.And they think they are hot shit and they think thier new songs are top quality.....that is a fuckin joke,James Hetfield is a dork and he has destroyed Metallica forever...there is "no going back now" they have had tons of chances to nut up and harken back to the old days,but they haven't and never will,even if they tried to it wouldn't be "true" it would be a "wannabe heavy metal album" and true metalheads will see straight through this crap.

Anybody who thinks differently is fooling themselves,I'm not saying that someone can't like the new shit,but to say that its just as good as thier old stuff,or to say that they are contributing to heavy metal they are fooling themselves and have no idea how much of a slap in the face they are to the true metal community,I hate Hetfield and Ulrich,they are a fuckin joke...they turned out "worse" than Paul & Gene!

		I am a Metallica fan, but I have to agree with JD and Guido - the stuff they are churning out now is craptacular. St Anger and Death Magnetic (the better of the two) just don't hold my attention at all and the songs are too long and self indulgent. Yes, their first 4 albums are excellent, but they started what has to be the biggest downhill slide in metal. I should note that I am a fan of the black album, heck I walked down the isle to an instrumental version of Nothing Else Matters LOL! But yeah, that's just a personal thing, I like that album. After that, arguably even before depending on who you're talking to, the shit hit the fan for them. I saw a debate about the best metal bands on an MTV website or something, and some young woman was arguing for Metallica to be #2 over Priest (WTF) and she said something along the lines of 'But that just shows how good Metallica is, even they can't top their first 4 albums!' Errrr the point is, they SHOULD be able to, but haven't!!!!!!      Goliath29 wrote: To slam Metallica, ( one of the world's greatest metal bands in my opinion...at least in their first decade of making music) well was just a bad example on your part. If you have experienced a personal problem with the band or just don't like their music for whatever reason..Doesn't mean you should dis them like you have..It's hard to argue their record selling numbers compared to almost any other metal band as of now, and they definetly have had a concept album (and.Justice.For ..All) ahem...Just be more careful with showing too much emotion on a blog when you're trying to glorify a band if it leads to pissing off others. You can seriously offend someone like you have myself. Props to Judas Priest and Metallica...Let the peace start here..SEMPER FIDELIS!
