Gotta love "Of Wolf and Man" and "Whiskey in The Jar".
Ha! Whiskey In The Jar ... killer redo. Love it definitely, but I must admit I'm a sucker for Sandman ... it's just a great driving beat; video is killer with the oncoming truck and the bed. And while I love all of their non-radio populars, I gotta give it up for Sandman. I've been following them since Kill 'em All in highschool ... bah, I'm old.

I like most Metallica at and prior to "And Justice For All" album.

I do like a bunch of tracks on Death Magnetic, but nothing in between the Death Magnetic album and Justice.

Favorite Metallica song? The ones that Dave Mustaine and Cliff wrote. One they ran out of material from both of those, the band went severely down hill.

I dunno The Mechanix really sucks compared to the four horsemen. I really would'nt say they went downhill. Load was a really awesome album nothing gets more epic the the Outlaw Torn. Reload was alright but towards the end it just got really repetitive slither really pissed me off for some reason and not in a good way.

St. Anger. That is just junk. Bob Rock should get shot for experimenting with them like that. No good songs in that crap whatsoever.

Death Magnetic was also a little disappointing but thank god they're trying again. The lyrics in that album has no meaning. James just sounds terrible. But not as bad as Dave Mustaine in Endgame. Or live for that matter.

But anyway my top Metallica songs:

1)Frayed Ends of Sanity
2)To live is to Die
3)Orion
4)Metal Militia
5)Disposable Heroes
6)Trapped under Ice

I'm gonna have to brush up on some of my older stuff and get current with Metallica becuase...I AM GOING TO SEE THEM LIVE IN SEPTEMBER!!!


They are finally coming back to Japan after a 4 year absence. It's the first indoor show they have done here in 7 years. Unfortunately, it won't be "in the round" seating, but normal arena seating, with general admission on the floor. Going with a group of about 7 people!! WOOT!

Load was an awesome album and nothing is more epic than The Outlaw Torn? You definitely have a, erm... unique taste.

I actually quite like Outlaw Torn. There used to be a good video of them doing that live during the World Magnetic tour. Was pretty kick a**.

Death Magnetic seemed really good when it first came out...but after listening to it for a couple years now, it just doesn't seem to have that "edge" it did when it was released. Don't know why...

There are a couple songs on there, though, that I really get into when I listen to it. End Of The Line and My Apocalypse my two favorites at the moment.

When I was in junior high I really liked Load... I liked the video for Fuel because of the cars in it. The 8th grade dances always featured "nothing else matters" so the rocker kids could slow dance.

I still say battery is the best and I stopped recognizing anything that came after the black album. My mom bought death magnetic and likes it, which means its lame. I got her Ride the Lightning for her birthday to make up for it.

Meh, used to love Metallica, as my favorite band. Then they turned into whiny bishez. Which is why Jason Newsted hit the road. Although I will say the last album, death magnetic is good. Especially All Nightmare Long and My Apocalypse. And WTF was with Load and Reload And Reload 3 aka St Anger?

Here lately I have upped my second favorite to first... MEGADETH. Whereas Metallica has mellowed down, Megadeth has gotten more complex over the years.

As for Favorite Metallica Song: blackened. Favorite cover: Am I Evil originally by Diamond head.

This is almost EXACTLY how I feel about Metallica right now. Stop reading my mind.
