And it doesn't suck, which is the really exciting thing.
I'll be at their concert at the new US Bank stadium in Minneapolis tomorrow night. Stoked.
New music here too: http://www.ladygaga.com/
Sounds like a marketing committee wrote the song. Uninspired garbage.
I'll be sure to pirate the new album as soon as it releases
The DJs on the hard rock station in Denver were having a 3 hour circle jerk yesterday when this was released.
I wish it were true kinda, but this is what they have been going with for awhile. I always feel their newer stuff is more erratic and just doesn't flow like the older stuff. Even the Black album is better, though the more the years go by the more I can appreciate it. St Anger is when it really started a turn in this direction imo.
^Agreed! It's like they're trying way to hard. Zero flow to their music.
Metallica, 1983 - 1991, RIP.
OMG!
Making me feel old here. Last time I saw Metallica was Day On The Green at the Oakland Coliseum in 1991. Saw them earlier in 88 or 89 at the Warfield I think and before that at the Moore Theater in Seattle in HS.
I think you were still in diapers last time I saw Metallica.
We are about in the same bracket. Don't ask me why I still have this shirt, maybe cuz it was one of my faves and survived a few pits. Have seen em about 15x, first being DOG with Cliff in 85 I think, plus 91 and whenever GnR one where all the turf got destroyed by assholes. Lucky enough to see Cliff a few times. I actually lived 2 or 3 streets over from him in Castro Valley but I was a bit younger so our paths would not have crossed. Makes you always wonder what the path would have been had he lived...

My buddy bought one of those. What I remember from that show was that the sound for Soundgarden was horrible despite a good performance(something I never experienced again at one of their shows) Faith No More was the show stealer, Queensryche was horrible and Metallica was pretty good. I remember the DOG where they tore up the turf, what a bunch of dumbfucks, that was 92 and I didn't go.
I remember a fantastic show at the I Beam in the Haight from 89 or 90 when Soundgarden opened for Faith No More. That was a good time to live in the Bay Area for music.
FNM was always so fucking good live. Every time. But specifics of that day are a bit fuzzy, as well as all those days back then. But I just know they were good.
And yeah, the turf getting torn up was bad...maybe last show they did there like that for awhile at least. But on the bright side GnR was horrible so we left after about 4 songs...kinda of a mass exodus.
Was that the set order? Funny how it's worked it over time
Metallica - written by marketing teams according to lw
queensryche - shit all over themselves in court, I think there are two bands that can use the name now
Faith no more - not sure really, I don't think/know about them but a solid band
And the order of bands I'd want to see right now is from the bottom up
Agreed about queensryche.
Didn't write that correctly about fnm. I like them a lot but I know nothing about their new music and if they did anything fucky to get back together
New album took a few listens, but I really dig it.
Metallica's last four albums have sucked, although you could edit Load/Reload down to a solid EP. But the mid 90s was about when they became more of a touring band than a studio band. They still bring it live.
I once heard someone compare James to George Lucas. They both needed someone to guide their ideas. I don't doubt they'd be a very different band if Cliff was still alive, and probably still relevant.
Yeah, Soundgarden, FNM, Queensryche, Metallica. It was kinda weird with FNM the best performance of the day. I'd love to see a reunited Soundgarden. Some of the best shows I've been to were Soundgarden at SJS Event Center, Kaiser Auditorium, and smaller clubs in SF and Seattle before Badmotorfinger. Faith No More was also one of the best live shows of that time, along with Primus and the Melvins.
Didn't SG just tour? Temple of the Dog is playing a 25th ann tour, but not coming to Denver and LA & SF already sold out.
I was at that SG show in SJ. Great show, but I just remember when they were done playing, they turned around and left the stage. No encore or anything. It was kind of strange.
Edit, Kim wasn't playing I think though, thus I guess not re-united. I may be off base on some of the details.
Yeah, that SJ show was for Superunknown. I don't remember the no encore, but I do remember they played for almost 3 hours without a break and no chatter just music. So loud and so clean. I had tinnitus for a couple days. The show for Down On The Upside tour at Kaiser was unreal. Again really loud and clean sound. I remember standing mid way back on the floor and my body seemed to be vibrating, I thought it was me because I was really high but I looked at my buddies and they were like "Do you feel that too?"
Yeah, I don't remember feeling cheated. It was just memorably strange. It's sometimes funny the things I remember...and don't remember.
Wow, this isn't bad. Amazing how much energy those guys still give to every performance. Aren't they in their 50's?
Saw a clip of RAtM when they got back together a few years ago, and it was like something was missing. A certain je ne sais quoi. Metallica always seems to still have it. Even if Lars is a midget douche.
Minny show streaming live on pandora. 8mst.

Just listened to 2nd & 3rd disc on drive home tonight. Gotta say I am liking it...that 3rd disc is a treat. Less erratic and I think some of it is kind of Load-ish. I liked those albums which I know some may not be of the same opinion. Stoked to give a some runs and see how she settles in, but liking it now which is bueno.
Above song rips. Other vids are pretty great as well.
Any updates about Metallica?:yourock:
They are touring and put on a great show, and the new album is really good. What more are you looking for?
Great! Hope they can do a one song collaboration with Dave Mustaine in the future.
I'm glad I quit after seeing them on the "Roam" tour in '91 at the Palace.
While I am not a Metallica fan by any stretch, I have seen them live 2X and have one or two albums laying about.
Keeping that in mind, I rather enjoyed this profile…
