I suppose thier guitar playing is okay, but the lyrics suck 90% of the time.

They seem to me to be another of those "image" bands that got a following from adolescent boys who stuck with them over the years.

Just my opinion, & we all know what that's worth...nada...

If they had better material, & a better singer, maybe they could have wowed me at some point.


Are you absolutely insane?? lol
Better material?
To me, Master of Puppets is the greatest rock album ever recorded. (So far)
And I dont just like the heavy metal, I like all forms of rock.
Being exposed to it as a teenager absolutely crushed my brain. I carried the 'cassette' around with me at all times, blasting it on my walkman.
Even when it wasn't blasting, it never left my side. (Ruined the insert in short order due to that!)
Peace. :)

Yeah, Zip, I may be insane...or perhaps I just don't like "rock" as they defined it.

It's just taste...& I never acquired one for them.

And just to add insult to injury, I must say that I thought thier bassists were always the weakest I ever heard. I could teach that stuff to any student I had for 4 months, max, if they can keep the slightest beat & only practice twice a month.

You want a great heavy metal bassist look to Quiet Riot...he's with BOC now, touring, & he's mighty fine.

Or Entwistle, or thousands of others much better.

LOL...I"ve heard better at the local open mics.

Burton was fair. I think his main strength was his composing/arranging skill though.
Well, Quiet Riot had a few bassists. Which one?
I always liked QR. We got to open up for them on a couple of occasions in the 90's.

What a let-down that must have been for the fan that just wanted to meet his idol....

I heard a bunch of assnine crap like that over the years.


Don't snub your fans!


Met James and all the rest of the guy's a couple times and they were some of the most Receptive and generous people with their time out of all the famous people I have met so your comment is news to me

Honestly the only reason you say that is because you only heard the bad stuff...listen to Enter Sandman and say that they suck. If you still think that, okay. If not, dude, you need to hear some good music.

enh metallica to me highlights all the things that I don't like in 80's heavy metal, the music is all written to a similar formula and as a guy who grew up on some 70's prog rock and jam bands, the guaranteed guitar solo in every song grew old on me really fast, there are times where I don't mind some songs, but if thats all someone is playing I get bored real quick
