Metallica is a bunch of Pussies

Everything about Lars pisses me off.

I like Lars. I think he's interesting. Seeing the stuff with his dad in Some Kind of Monster gave him a new dimension for me.

I'd punch Jimmy Fallon in the face.

I would, repeatedly. He's a one-note comedian so amateur he laughs at his own terrible jokes. But a lot of people find him endearing, and he seems very well-connected, so I guess there's that.

Yeah, i hate him. From the days of SNL....and im glad his career as an actor was a failure.

I saw him do standup once at my university. It was painfully awful. The guy is a hack. But...he seems to have a good idea about how to book artists and work with them, so I'll give him that too.

Speaking of Metallica, I stumbled upon a full video of my only Metallica show on YouTube recently. I got a really good one at the tail end of Jason's run in the band, and I've never really wanted to see them again despite my hero worship of their first four albums. They closed with this:



They also played "Blackened", which melted my brain into a million pieces. So so so good.

The guy who works in his show booking bands is amazing...is Jonathan Cohen...he is really good.

James Hetfield is on Maron tomorrow. I'm just a casual Metallica fan, but I expect this to be a good interview.

I hope he talks about how lovely Vail is.

Unpopular Metallica opinion:

I think Load is better than the Black album.

I thought it did with my stance on The Diamond Sea.

I could never hold that against you. Ten minutes of noise can be tough to take .

Probably very unpopular Metallica opinion:

That track they had on that Mission: Impossible soundtrack is my favorite tune by them.

Unpopular Metallica opinion:

I think Load is better than the Black album.

I agree.

I haven't listened to it all the way through in a while but I remember thinking the first half is pretty solid. Like the first 7 songs are all pretty solid.

Another possibly unpopular opinion, I think 'Kill 'Em All' is their best album.

I can't agree that it's my favorite, but I do like it. It probably fits in the underrated category for me.

[LoathedVermin72]

I love that song

Either that or In Justice For All. I should clarify I'm not a huge fan; I haven't even listened to the new one, nor S&M. But I had my Metallica period back in highschool. Load is unfairly maligned, and Kill 'Em All is an amazing record regardless of one's appetite for metal/thrash.

Master of Puppets FTW

Master of Puppets FTW

It's my #2. Battery is probably my favorite song. It may even be Metallica as their best as a band. It's just so good (you can apply that to the whole album).

[bada]

Ride The Lightening and Master Of Puppets are pretty much perfect.
