Metallica HipHop

All they did was try something different and it didn't work out! So you'll condemn them for that?

Personally i am not that dissapointed by St. Anger,

sure it wasnt that great compared with their older stuff but considering what they have been through in the past few years i think its amazing that they actually managed to make another album because they were so close to splitting up.

If anything the whole St. Anger project shows just how strong they actually are that they can get through one of the toughest periods in their life and stil manage to make something out of it for the fans.

So yes, there is some beauty and meaning that comes from that album.

for more profit!

St.anger lacking solos and sounding bland made it shitty for me

for more profit? really? not because they are passionate about making music like most musicians are?

I think that also we have already covered the fact that its not the 80s anymore and that they have been experimenting with new sounds so the fact that you dont like St. Anger because its not the same old same old which is pretty shallow minded if you think about it.

lets face it the days of 8 minute anthems are gone, music is changing my friend.

Since when did doing stuff for profit.......in a profession, become a bad thing?

If they had compromised theirselves and their beliefs, THAT would be selling out. They didn't.

They have to make profit coz at the end of the day, it is their job.

You didn't like the album. No need to condemn the band.

really bad idea..unless they get a really good hip hop artist. but if they want to sell millions they have to get artists like Snoop Dogg, 50 Cent etc etc...

This album will more than likely have mostly mainstream artists on it. But, to be fair, I really can't see Sage Francis or MC Slug going well with Metallica samples.. they just aren't hard enough. Chuck D would probably do great though.

I think its a rubbish idea, you can't really call it a tribute if you think about it? I bet half of the guys who do sing/rap the song's have not heard them before in their lives.

Please, Metallica are huge all over the world. Just because they are immersed in hip-hop culture doesn't mean they've never heard of Metallica.

Sage Francis no, but Slug definitely. He's got one of the loudest, brashest voices I've heard. Heck he spends half of Seven's Travels shouting.
