    80s Lars was an absolute beast. Anybody who actually knows how to play the drums and listens to Metallica knows this.
    His later decline due to him losing interest and motivation doesn't take away from what he did in the first 10 years. Shitting on Lars is just a childish meme.

      Everybody hates Lars 'cause he helped shut down Napster. That's it, really.
      Him being a raging asshole and getting sloppy on the drums are dodges. Lots of musicians are assholes, lots of drummers get tired.
      But Napster made it easy for everyone to get all the music they wanted without paying a cent, and a bunch of musicians and songwriters said, "Hey, you know a lot of us make our living through our audiences paying for our music, and if nobody pays for the music they enjoy, we don't make a living," and since Lars was one of those musician/songwriters, everyone got mad at him, and since he's the kind of asshole to be happy to take the point on the charge, they got _really_ mad at him, and they're still mad at him, and if the _entire history of America_ is any stick to measure the situation by, it's clear that very few people really _care_ why we're supposed to be angry about some things, only that, when you show up somewhere, and everybody hates something, you have to hate it too, so feel free to come up with your own reasons to hate.
      Everybody loved _Enter Sandman,_ and everybody really loved _Enter Sandman_ for free, and Lars said, "Hey, pay for _Enter Sandman,"_ and now everybody hates Lars. This happened decades ago, and you can still get _Enter Sandman_ for free, and Napster sort of came back, but everybody used to hate Lars, they still hate Lars, and they want you to hate Lars, too.
      That's it, really.

    And Justice for all was the first album after they lost Cliff, the original bassist. If you listen to the full album, you can hear what they were feeling. They were grieving, and they were angry. This was a therapy session.

      @@iforgotmypen6348 I'm assuming it sounds and plays like an ML aside from the different body style(and how that might affect how it plays), but I could be wrong. It's insane the guitar you can get for your money these days, I got the $200 Jackson Dinky JS22 in natural oil last year and it's an amazing guitar as far as how it plays, could just use some hardware and electronics upgrades but it'd be worthy of some Bare Knuckles for sure.
      I guess looking it up it's got a shorter scale length though, like an Explorer. I suppose you knew that already and might have tried one out yourself lol.

    About the "proggy": this song has many odd time signatures. The main riff is in 7/4, the verse is in 6/4. That where you say 'proggy' is 6/4 + 7/4. Some occasional extra meausers (like 2/4).

    You should do Creeping Death. It's one of the greatest, most majestic songs Metallica has ever done. It begins and ends with a power that was once only reserved for Classical music. If you close your eyes, you can almost see the conductor in your mind. A driving force, powerful message, and a mix and production that make it timeless. Moses sent the, 'Creeping Death', and this song lets you feel from the Death's point of view. Truly one of the best metal songs of all time.

    • @NoBrakes23

      Creeping Death is also interesting in that it's straight out of the book of Exodus. I don't think Metallica did a lot of biblical stuff. I would like to see them react to that and the Lovecraftian themed Thing That Should Not Be.

    Orion will give you the opportunity to see another side of Metallica rarely appreciated by anyone other than their true fans or metal elitists. Its a well written eccentric and layered composition that some may arguably equate with other classically influenced pieces. I believe how they were able to write and progressively grow within that genre had much to do with Cliff Burton who tragically passed as most of us know. In my opinion it's unfortunate how following the Black album they turned away from this type of composing to a more commerical, pop oriented, 4 minute radio friendly band marketing everything from lunch boxes to action figures. They literally became everything they originally stood against....
    The Thing That Should Not Be....

    Anyone who doesn't like Sad but True is just weird. Metallica has an amazing discog. Their groove is amazing on so many levels. Also, Saint Anger is not trash but it's not their best by any margin. The recording sounds are just odd, and most famously the snare drum from Lars is very off putting. The album they came out with after was much better Title Death Magnetic. And honestly their newest album is a very nice return to form. Probably the best album they have put out in many years.
    Please do Soilwork. Any song from their collection would be worth it. but especially anything from The Living Infinite.

      If any other band would have put out St. Anger it would have been considered at least mediocre. But for a Metallica album, when compared to their other work it was just poor.
      And when you compare their new album to stuff like load, reload, and St. Anger, of course their new album are good. But people want the same heavy metal/thrash vibe of their old albums. Personally I don't understand the hate, but to each their own. You can't compare their new stuff to their old stuff. It's a weak argument to make for why the albums aren't good because realistically they aren't even in the same genres.
