as a guitar player who at one time could play all songs from memory through Black, I can understand if they went a different direction. After years of playing that style of music, I got burned out.

My comment was merely directed at the notion that Metallica hasn't done anything noteworthy since 1986, which to me is hysterical. It's the whole "Well I liked them before they were cool!" cliche. And for some reason, Metallica has a legion of "haters", even though their record sales and concert draws clearly dispel that notion. |

oh no, I agree. I think their music has changed, not necessarily for the worse IMO, as they too probably got burned out playing the stame style for over a decade.
They're by far on par with Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Pink Floyd in terms of sustainability and longevity. (as others have mentioned)

Zeppelin hasn't release a new studio album since the late 70's, Pink Floyd hasn't released a studio album with it's most important member since 1980 and Van Halen has only released three albums in the past three decades, each with a different singer. Metallica's on a completely different level. |

There is no cliche here. As you admit, they changed. When things change, people tend to react. Your whole "in before cool" interpretation is nothing but a petulant defense from someone trying to justify his own opinions. Guess what. I don't give a **** if you like new Coke or old Coke. I don't give a **** if you like new Metallica or old Metallica. The fact that you can't understand how personal tastes may differ from popular opinion is very telling of the industry you represent. I can't tell if you're really this hypocritical or if you're just trying to stir shit.

I'm not judging anyone. As I've said multiple times, I find it comical.

First off, I don't "represent" any industry. Secondly, you need to re-read my posts because you are clearly misunderstanding them. And finally, stop being so emotional about a band. |

I remember riding in a 1972 Chevy on the way to football practice with some tallica playing. Still sounds good to me and it seems like they are doing well. Yeah **** them through the napster phase, but they had some good tunes on death magnetic.
