Metallica!!!!!

I'd be lying if i said i was a diehard Metallica fan ive only been listeining to them recently but what ive heard i really enjoy, like some of there earlier stuff also.

I like hard rock and metal.............but do not particularly care for Metallica. I realize they have many fans so they can't be bad....they just don't appeal to me. I can count the number of Metallica songs I like on one hand....and all of those songs come from "Kill 'em All", "....and Justice for All", and "Metallica (a.k.a. the black album)"

I find it funny that they are super famous as metal legends simply because they've been around for 20 years...........thing is, they were never famous untill they had been around 20 years and became famous for being around for 20 years. That's the music industry though for you. Motorhead is by far the most respected and loved metal band yet are still not super famous like Metallica is.

I like most rock and metal from Black Sabbath to Blink 182

evil dead you should learn about metallica they were famaus after ride the lightning theyve always been a famaus part of metal, back with GnR when axel refused to play the candain center, theyve been there seeling out concerts but now there just trying to sell out record spots, the black album was the highest grossing album for like 10 years thats somthing to say your famus

rage..........I know about Metallica.......I began listening to them in the mid eighties........they were never famous untill after the black album came out............they were never anywhere near as famous as GNR........all the metal heads new who they were but not the mainstream.........they didn't bust into the mainstream (get super famous) untill Load came out..........playing on tour with GNR does not make you famous, record sales and the media make you famous.

I don't particularly care for the tone of your post, saying I need to learn about Metallica? Geez.........I admitted they were a good band but just weren't my cup of tea..........I don't know if you were into the music scene 15 years ago....or 10 years ago......if you weren't, you need to research the subject. Metallica was never even as big as Poison or Bon Jovi in the 80s..........they never came anywhere close to touching Nirvana or Pearl Jam in the early nineties..........they didn't become famous untill after the whole "alternative" music scene had died in the mid nineties and they put out "load"............before then they only had one major hit with Enter Sandman and I think two smaller singles, I think "one" and "sad but true"...........

yeah dead your right, i percieved what you posted differently on my first read. i just have to stick up for my bands every ounce and a while and i was the dick in this situation cuz i misread you

They are the biggest load of pretentious, greedy wankers
who wouldn't exist without guitar distortion.

Oh please don't make Mp3's of our songs, we're millionaires but we don't care, we're middle-aged rockers who don't like technology unless it helps us GET! Money.

I heard they went after napster because unfinished work was getting leaked on the internet. Certainly makes a whole lot more sense than they wanted a few extra bucks off record sales. How many records would they have to sell to make up for the cost of going after Napster in the first place?

"Oh please don't try and say that you actually wanna get paid for your job. Please don't try and say that if you hint to money you still love music. If you love music you shouldn't care about downloading"- Any random teen with no knowledge of record industry workings.

Metallica didn't like the work they created getting ripped off and stolen, had they been asked permission things probably would have been different.

It's not cool to just take music. They've got to the effort of making music for themselves and giving you the PRIVILEGE of hearing it, so pay.
