Metallica and God

[Dogstar]

Lars may be a nazi, but I still like Metallica and I like St. Anger, so I'm not buying your analogy.

i guess i'm the only one brave enough to completely disagree with the above statements.

I have said it before and i will say it time and time again, st. anger is not a bad cd, i love it personally.

Reload has been seen as a RELATIVE flop, that means compared to all other metallica albums (in which case, human clay is seen as a relative flop compared to some of metallica's albums).

Anyways, the way some people are reacting to St. Anger is the way the hardcore fans reacted to the black album: It's a new sound for the band and a new direction, and most people don't like change.

Personally i think it's refreshing that at least one band can get it right and grow musically like metallica has. They have the best mindset to constantly seek to find and break through new boundaries and take their music to the next level.

If you want to listen to a band you like put out the same stuff album after album, then be my guest, i personally find most bands out there nowadays boring with the exception of a select few. A band has to change it's style to be successful and grow, i'd like you to point out 5 bands that have been around for at least 20 years like tallica and have kept THE EXACT SAME STYLE the whole time.

You may not like it, but it takes an open mind to appreciate change, which many people seem to lack.


Oh yeah and PS:

If reload and st. anger suck, put out something better, then i'll stop ranting . If you can write albums better than reload or st. anger, or even half as good, then you're attacking the two albums will have some merit, PERIOD DOT!

Well said, Rune, though I wasn't a fan of the Load/Reload stuff. The Unnamed Feeling is my favorite off St. Anger.

[Rune]

normally i wouldn't say anything in a post like this, and if i sound harsh at all i apologize

i just don't know where people get off saying that any band sucks (i'm guilty of it too, but i've learned to hold my tongue).

If you haven't sold millions of copies of anything you've ever written, your opinion means nothing

so basically, like moms always say: if you have nothing nice to say, DON'T SAY IT.


and i'm in no way saying load/reload are metallica's best, but again, they're relative flops, they still sold millions, and personally fuel is one of my favorite songs by tallica

[Dogstar]

Well, I think as a fan you can have opinions about whether you like a band, though. But to say something sucks without really saying why isn't very productive .

Did you ever take time to read the Bible instead of listening people talking about it?

God didn't do the Babel Tower... actually he destroyed it.

God and Jesus were there since beginning.

Yeh, I can understand your point of view.

Not theologically accurate, but funny I must say.

[GeeK_2004]

I havent been much of a Metallica fan...


Just about every band has their good songs and/or cd and their bad songs and/or cd


Everyone(s) got their own opinion on things

[Rune]

can't we all just get along?

[GeeK_2004]

....why cant we be friends....

Yeh, but people seem to always have their different opinions and it ruins my perfect world, bah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bgivens33]

I think that load/reload should have just been one album... there wasn't enough quality songs on there to require to separate releases. And that being said, I didn't like St. Anger all that much. I see how Metallica is "musically" progressing BUT... I don't like the direction they are heading. And as for lars being a nazi... it's so funny to see people hate him for just trying to retain his money. I'll come steal a dollar from you and then call you a nazi when you want it back.

Metallica owns...thats all I can say....
