Metallica...

I'm not a huge fan of the band Metallica... Mainly because they are a bunch of greedy old farts... But one of the songs I like is "I Disappear" you know the hey hey hey here I go now song... It was the first song I started listening too which led me to getting into rock and eventually classic rock music...

This is, by far, THE most overrated band of all time, IMO

That title belongs to U2, IMO.

Metallica was good very early in their career, but now they are just plain horrible.

I remember how alive and engergetic "Ride the Lightning" was when it first came out. I remember making a tape of some Stravinsky and Debussy for a friend of mind, and him making a tape of RtL as a trade. I don't know who was blown away more. Later, I was hanging out with the same gang of metal-heads in a friends' basement, and brought my Mahavishnu Orchestra records with me. We spent a rainy Saturday afternoon blasting "Ride the Lightning" and "Inner Mounting Flame" at top volume.

"Master of Puppets" was still pretty good, but Metallica had clearly lost some of their edge to over-production. By the time "Metallica" came out, they had lost me entirely.

St Anger was a huge pile of dog crap.

I am a fan of Metallica. I like the first 5 and S&M. Load, Reload, and St. Anger terrible.

I actually liked Load and Reload. However, St. Anger, I just can't get in to.

when they attacked napster, i began disliking them. when they cut and bleached their hair and went metrosexual that was completely it. they were ok, the black album was ok.

like 'em or not, every artist DESERVES to get paid for album sales. it's illegal to copy music and it ain't right. i'm glad they nailed napster and i'm glad that some people that downloaded music on the internet are getting sued by record labels.
