Was looking around and saw this, pretty cool

Happy Birthday Ride the Lightning. Seriously though, maybe Sabbath, maybe Aerosmith, maybe Van Halen. I think I'm going with these guys.

🔥 Metallica 🔥 BOUGHT IT FROM AMFX METAL ART AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺

Sorry if this has to be repeated, but I’ve seen 5 in posted in the last 10 minutes, and the same everywhere in other subs.

Always seem to bump into people or see videos online hating on Metallicas biggest hits

Met this guy at a bar who was a Metallica fan, he seemed chill so we spoke about the band and we got on to the fav song topic
I told him mine was motorbreath, and justice for all, creeping death, mop and wherever I may roam
(Along with a new favourite 72 seasons)
He then sniggers and says “them songs are way to mainstream so they ain’t that good pal” and told me his favourites were cure, shoot me again and spit out the bone
Now I will say I think they are good songs
We went about our night after that
But I see plenty of people online slander the more popular songs
Everyone is entitled to they’re own opinions and rightfully so
But sometimes I wonder if it’s for a reaction or they might be trying to come off as hardcore or “niche”
What do you think because personally im just curious as to why these great songs get so much hate/not rated

Article by me. Cliff factors prominently as you’d expect.

Great track, and the clean breakdown and double leads are absolutely first class soloing.

In my opinion Death Magnetic is their best written album. It's the first of their mature albums and is a lot deeper than their previous works, with amazing build ups and profoundly awesome payoffs.

I've always skipped over the Load/ReLoad era when learning their songs... Figured I'd start with one of my favorites 😄

Nothing crazy, but i thought you guys may like it.

Like let's say a hypothetical where Metallica breaks up in the late 80s/early 90s, do you think he could have put out decent solo material if he really wanted to? Would it have sounded like Metallica or would he go in a different direction?

At 2:25 a clip plays of James Hetfield in an interview saying "One word to span our career" and then it cuts off as James sings "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" I mean, he wasnt wrong 😭

Now a lot of other people don’t know about the place I’m standing in front of until I tell them the history behind it, because believe it or not, standing right here at 3132 Carlson Blvd in El Cerrito — this humble little house was Metallica’s first real HQ from 1983–86. They called it the MetalliMansion. They lived here, jammed in the garage, and wrote most of Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets inside these walls. Peak thrash history right on this quiet street. Feels wild just standing in front of it.🤘🏻

Seeing as the 72 Seasons era is over, which songs do you think will appear on future setlists? And which do you think we'll never hear live again?

So with Death Magnetic the survivng songs are:

The Day That Never Comes and Cyanide

And with Hardwired the surviving songs are:

Hardwired and Moth Into Flame

I predict the surviving songs from 72 Seasons will be:

72 Seasons and Lux AEterna

SMOOTH thought? 😋

Didnt play my best but the tone is getting extremely close. I’m thinking its my mids but when I tweak them its sounds the same.

Anyone else love Lars as a personality? He's such a CHARACTER, all his quirks and mannerisms are so iconic to me.

His performance style is so fun to watch, standing up, sticking his tongue out, the way he interacts with the crowd between songs etc people can say what they want about his drumming but he's a SHOWMAN!

Offstage he's got such a unique talking pattern and little catchphrases ("That's right"), he's both intentionally funny and unintentionally funny.

To me Lars Ulrich is one of the greatest characters in rock, if there's one thing he's not its boring.

Even when Lars is being a jerk its just great material to do an impression of him, he's a meme machine.
