Metallica

Recommended Posts

It’s crazy to say that the Metallica we grew up with, you know, the one that played thrash metal, hasn’t put out an amazing album since 1988. And even then, the production was so shitty on that album. I know a bunch of y’all will white knight the black album. Slow your roll, I’m not saying they sold out. I bet they are making music that makes them more or less happy and more rich ;). But we all know, there is a huge difference between ride the lightning and whatever this crap is they are peddling now.

Don’t give a single fuck. 
 
I’m going. A lot.
Let Dime’s work be heard loud as flying fuck once again, in his honor.
The world needs it. 

Fair enough and true. But don’t call it Pantera. It ain’t goddamned Pantera without Vinnie and Darrell. I will argue this until the end of time.

Welp....I thought I would go.

But not at those ticket prices for the product they are putting out.

I'm and old school Metallica fan.

First three albums made them.

Fourth album kept them afloat but still great.

Black album was great but not what I was expecting let alone wanting.

And at the same time introduced a whole new audience to them.

That kinda went against what they were all about if you ask me.

But I digress.

I'm not willing to dump that kind of cash on them.

They sure do put on a great show though.

God dammit where's my wallet!

Big meh from me. But I haven’t really liked anything since the black album.

At least Megadeth still brings it.

I saw Metallica 15 years ago or so.  Played nothing but stuff from the first four albums and a few black album songs.  May catch some grief from some, but I actually like Load and Reload.  Everything after that though, big nope.

Correct on Megadeth.  Dave and crew are still bringing the good stuff.  Fortunate to have seen them twice over the years.  Caught a guitar pick from Dave at both shows.

Those dudes in the picture above would really hate Load and Reload.

And probably everything after that.

And while we're at it, they would hate the Black album as well.

metallica purists are among the most ridiculous "fans" of any band

Why though? Maybe I am not the kind of fan you are talking about.

I like the old stuff. Some of the stuff in the 90s was ok, but it just doesn’t do it for me like the old stuff. The last 20 years I don’t like at all. So I don’t listen to it.

This happens with a lot of bands/fans. I really only reach for the first two Helmet albums and occasionally Betty…but after that, it just doesn’t do anything for me.

Should I keep buying and listening to music from a band that isn’t putting out music that I like?
