Such tragedy every one of Metallica’s peers is routinely recording material that incinerates anything James, Lars and Kirk have over these past THREE decades ... and yet Metaliica remains at the very top.

No justice.

It’s quite remarkable how the fumes of a once-great band has sustained such success.

Think about it. After 1988, Metallica, as a relevant recording entity, ceased to exist. Still arenas and stadiums.

Fixed it for ya

Metallica lives off of mainly a dozen songs

1. Creeping Death - 1984
2. Master - 1986
3. For Whom the Bell Tolls - 1984
4. Sandman - 1992
5. One - 1988
6. Moth into a Flame - 201?
7. Seek and Destroy - 1983
8. Whiplash - 1983
9. Sad but True - 1992
10. Fuel - 1995
11. Fade to Black 1984
12. Welcome Home Santarium 1986

Since Justice - they have have been a rock band mainly. I like a few off the black album. But after - mostly nonsense and crap

Sandman was 91
along with all the other crappy songs on that album

I was being kind.

While I think the self-titled is a very good album, I also really dislike it. My fandom starts and ends with the first four.

Let’s not get silly. Metallica’s always been a metal band.

Just one that’s essentially sucked ass for 30 years.

To be fair, even the best bands only had have a run for 3-4 years with a few having a great one off comeback album.

Load and ReLoad sucked.

St Anger had some ok moments.

LULU was horrific

Death Magnetic - one really good song - "Day that Never Comes"

Hardwired - two decent songs - Hardwired and Moth into a Flame

Maybe I'm just so tired of them at this point. You look at bands like Testament, exodus, Anthrax, Megadeth, Hatebreed, etc - at least they are putting in effort to make decent stuff. Metallica is like you wait and wait and wait all those years between figuring they have had time to create something at least decent on par w their peers - and then mediocre bs with no re-listen value at all.

Thin Lizzy · « **Reply #1256 on:** February 17, 2021, 12:56:43 PM »

Once they make it big, everybody buys their big houses, lives separate lives and they’re not really a band anymore.

I remember as a kid watching this and like - "yup this is metal"

Soul Crusher · « **Reply #1258 on:** February 18, 2021, 05:14:04 AM »

BOOM!!! FNG great.

The production of Exodus albums is top notch. The bass and drums are clear.

I was fine with the black album. And, there are some good songs on Load and Re-Load.

However, when St. Anger hit, I was both pissed and disappointed in the band. I thought they were done. I was still pissed when I Death Magnetic came out, and barely gave it a listen.

But, Hardwired is a great album. Give it another shot.

When I last saw them a few years ago, they played NOTHING from Death Magnetic or St. Anger. Tells you all you need to know about those two albums.

I've seen Metallica many times. I'm 50. They ALWAYS deliver live and never phone it in.

That is what put them on the map in the beginning (with no radio play), and the quality of their live shows is what kept has them as the biggest act in metal.

Loved Metallica back in the day but shit like St Anger doesn't fly!

For me, their prime.

1. Creeping Death - 1984
2. Master - 1986
3. For Whom the Bell Tolls - 1984
4. Sandman - 1992
5. One - 1988

Also Battery, Kall of Kthulu
