For me And Justice For All was a masterpiece And pretty much everything else they did was shit, especially that Load Reload shit and SnM wankfest, there was like a whole decade their between the Black Album and Death Magnetic where they were touching themselves too much
Well, They're my favorite band. Their whole career is just classic (except St. Anger and Death Magnetic).
Metallica have just teamed up with Lou Reed to work on a new project. Could be interesting. Knowing Metallica though they'll probably fuk it.
I wish they just stay at making cover albums now. Garage inc. was the best they did since the black album
I think I used to own a copy of the original Garage Days revisited EP, wish I still had it's probably worth a bob or two now.. I still got a few rarities of there's including their first ever red transparent vinyl 12" Jump in the fire, The Unforgiven 12" gatefold single, Wherever I May Roam 12", Creeping Death EP on vinyl, One 7" + Harvester of Sorrow CD single. Nearly also got a Lars Ulrich sweaty towel at the SECC in Glasgow in 1990, I was one of the 6 or 7 people who managed to get a hold of it when he threw it into the crowd, the force of other fans pulling at it was too great though. In hindsight it was probably for the best as owing a sweaty Lars Ulrich towel could be considered a bit gay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Z6cVUOhLDw"]Metallica Breadfan - YouTube
I couldnt believe it. They seemed to have gotten back on track with Death Magnetic, They are a thrash band. But now this, Lou Reed??? Might as well just title the album Blow Your Reload Sigh, long gone are the days of: "Undying Spite I Feel for You Living out this Hell You Always Knew"
I used to really like Metallica (until the whole Napster thing) I even learned a few of their songs on guitar. The black album and S&M were awesome. Problem is I started to boycott them once I discovered that James Hetfield was proud of the fact that their music is used for unjust torture to detainees in Guantanamo Bay. He *did* state that politics and music don't mix...but I also don't agree with that...what better media than music can one give a textured response to social and political commentary? I kind of hoped they would have spoke out against it, I guess...but that's just me. http://www.roadrunnerrecords.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=104234

is the dvd out yet? http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2011/dec/12/metallica-reunite-original-lineup?intcmp=ILCMUSIMG9382 Metallica have wrapped up an extraordinary week of anniversary shows by reuniting with former members. Saturday night saw the return of Dave Mustaine and Ron McGovney, who performed with the band for the first time since 1982. After 30 years, Metallica still know how to throw a party. For four nights, the metal legends rocked San Francisco's Fillmore, inviting friends and collaborators, as well as hundreds of prize-winning fans. There were video tributes by U2 and Slipknot, jams with a New Orleans brass brand, and the premiere of unreleased studio recordings. The band didn't just fly in their most recent musical partner, Lou Reed – they brought in everyone from Glenn Danzig to Apocalyptica, as well as members of Judas Priest, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Saxon and Alice in Chains. When they played Iron Man and Paranoid on Saturday night, it was with one half of Black Sabbath - Ozzy Osbourne and Geezer Butler. But the most touching team-ups were with former members. Fans were thrilled by the Wednesday night appearance of bassist Jason Newsted, who played with Metallica from 1986 to 2001. "[He is] someone who lived with us, and toured with us and did stuff with us for 14 years," James Hetfield said from the stage. On Saturday night, the biggest surprise was Mustaine, fired from Metallica in 1983. Although the band had already reconciled with the megadeth frontman, almost three decades had passed since he and his former bandmates played Hit The Lights Formed in 1981, Metallica are one of the biggest bands of all time, sellling more than 100m albums.
