Thing that should not be is one of my fav songs

The lyrics are whatever, but Kirk's weirdass solo is fuckin awrsome

I find that I still gravitate to Kill em all though. First album, best album

I worked with a guy who named his son Orion, and there is an extremely good chance its after the Metallica song

I also have a cousin named Kashmir, after the Led Zeppelin song :doh:

Harvester by itself would sorta work, its a lot more interesting than Jaeden or whatever

this album is so much better with a bass guitar on it, will never understand why they did Jason like that.

Also this dude jams.

the playing is good but i dont think this improves the original because it sounds too much like he's trying to put the bass in the forefront and call attention to it. yes the bass was too quiet on the original but the timbre of it was more suitable

Correct.

Lars is a mediocre (at best) drummer, but as a songwriter and band manager, he's invaluable to the band. He is why we've even heard of Metallica.

So no, he doesn't practice or care about his drums. He prints money and talks poo poo, which get people talking about Metallica which means he gets to print more money...

Exactly. In addition, Metallica functions just fine musically with mediocre drumming because Hetfield is a loving God of riffs and down picking which makes up for the midget behind the kit. With that said, aside from his studio prowess, Lars is kinda fun live? I mean, dude stands up a lot and gestures to the crowd like a cheerleader of sorts, I don't know if it sounds weird but it has its own charm. It's definitely better than the crab walk poo poo that Rob does.

Also, in the end Lars was right about the Napster poo poo. For what it's worth, they're really good about providing free content for fans these days. Don't get me wrong, they're capitalists through and through but when I saw them on the Hardwired Tour everyone got a free audio download of their particular concert afterwards which I thought was really cool and they have a YouTube channel with a metric gently caress ton of past concerts and they're constantly releasing new performances as they play more shows.

The Lady Justice statue that fell apart onstage throughout that tour was nicknamed Doris so I'm going with that.

imo the writing on the first five albums is pretty good but after that they pretty much lost me. i think robert trujillo is a better musician than anyone who's ever been in metallica but the stuff they write now just kind of falls flat to me, even the newest one which people have been calling a "return to form". a return to the form of load maybe, they seem to have no idea how to write the more classical-influenced stuff they did in the 80's.

The best thing to come out of St Anger for me was one of the finest bits of music journalism I've had the pleasure of reading. They described the drums and snare and the erratic playing on the album sounding like "a skeleton masturbating in a file cabinet." A+ work.
