Another thing that makes me laugh is that Kirk Hammet thinks he can play guitar - The only thing he has going is that he had a couple of lessons from Joe Satriani .. Marty Friedman can play circles around him ....
ahh...but can *YOU*?
Actually at one time I could play practicall every Metallica song - But I haven't touched a guitar in about 6 years, so I probably forgot them all now 
And also in the *80's* before "and Justice For All" they were a good band, but then when that album came out they totally turned POSER !!
MHO - Band like Megadeth, Iron Maiden, Judas Preist, Manowar, and Black Sabbath are better than than they are and ever were. |

Metallica. I liked them up to and including the black album. After that they totally sold out even before the Napster incident, even though they claimed they never would.
Beatles did some very original stuff for the time. I would contest that they were "no talent hacks".
I like Nirvana.
Poser Band: Ironically, Metallica labeled Axel Rose a poser in a different way. When they were doing the mega-bands tour, Metallica made one comment about Axel being so annoying because he toted this ramp on tour with him where he would run out to the audience and deliver his stuff. Ulrich thereby dubbed them "Axel Rose and his Ego Ramp".

O.k - Your age is showing here,, what are ?? 15 or something ??? Apparently you never heard them - Karl Logan is a lot better guitar player than Kirk Hammet will ever be - The guy has a Style and playability that is no match
And Scott Columbus is one of the best drummers I have ever heard, not to mention Joe DeMaio is an awesome bass player - They also have one thing that Metallica don't have ... That is the fact that they never sold out and turned POSER !!! SO before you reticule something try listening to it and get the facts before you make a schmuck out of yourself |

21 actually.
..any band that names themselves after a jellyfish..
thats just funny.
they never sold out, because......noone wants to buy them.
but hey..if ur into big swords and cheese...by all means...dont let me stop you.
..and i never tried comparing them to metallica..thats your thing. if u need to convince urself they're better than _any-band_, go ahead. i'm not gonna bother wasting my time.

Actually the name came from Man-of-war : Men-of-war - A government vessel employed for the purposes of war, esp. one of large size; a ship of war ..
Also Manowar is what they used to call the fighter plains during WWII ...
But for a band that you claim no one wants to buy, They sell out every concert they have - The one they had recently in Pittsburgh sold out in less than an hour .. They are a good band, I agree some of the lyrics are'nt that great, butt the music is good ...
But in any case I'm done with the discussion - Everybody has their own opinion and you are entitled to yours ... I don't normally blast someone for what kind of music they listen to, I listen to all of it myself, it all just depends on what kind of mood I am in .. I'm a true music lover, one that listens to all kinda and don't set his mind on a one side track .... |

wonderful..u can use a dictionary...oh no...wait....reticule is a purse...... ridicule...is different.
anyway....
there's a difference between "selling-out", as in .."metallica sold out" as u claim (and i dont argue).
and "selling-out"... a venue. Metallica has sold out venues all over the world, ARENAS/stadiums ...no less.
But MoW hasn't "sold out" ...because, noone (labels/promoters/franchises/etc - not fans) wants to buy them.

Guns and Roses. They dont show up at concerts, the fans riot and the band gets 2-3 days of free publicity on the local news.

i never said they weren't.
i'm just saying they'll never 'sell-out' because the mainstream doesnt want them.
geez...half the metal community..doesnt even want them  .
man-o-war and their fans...are the butt of many a-joke. |
