Metal gets alot more press than hardcore punk.
I can only discuss metal up to the early 90s but IMO metalica is a perfect example everything after Justice blows imo and that had alot to do w/ Metalica being influenced from outside sources.(some would say everything after Cliff died sucked)

The point im trying to make is that when you put every band under your thumb it kills what made those bands org. in the first place.
Its human nature to do so but IMO it breeds alot of bullshit and bad music,because it gets away from what rock and roll is all about-

Thumbing your nose at everything.

To bad you live way up north,ive got about 600+ LPs and love to swap tunes.

I sort of share the opinion that everything after AJFA... is bad. I like a few songs off of Black Album, and I even like about half of Load. I support artists experimenting. I really think that Cliff dying damaged them so much. He was the guy behind what they were doing with their slightly progressive thrash metal in RtL and MoP, and certainly influenced AJFA greatly.

I don't really live in Maryville. I'm just here for college. I actually live in Excelsior Springs.
