    Metallica

    I finally saw the Some Kind of Monster documentary over the weekend, Good viewing. Any hardcore fans know exactly what went down with Jason Newstead? Why did he leave? The band seemed to take quite a few shots at him during the film.

      I read somewhere that he wanted to play music like in their original stuff and was tired of the shit they were recording at the moment.

          It was alright.
          It is something I think the band should of not released though.

            If you had actually paid attention there is a scene where that is explained.

                Gotta give Jason props....

                Hetfield's and Ulrich's egos are COMPLETELY out of control, as exhibited all during that documentary...

                  I thought it was a great movie. An excellent documentary. And it made me appreciate the band even more.

                  I was a huge fan as a teen and still love them. The new album is their best in years and the film only made me respect the shit they went through.

                    Jason's replacement must be wondering what happened to the kick-unit that rocked with white-hot shit a la Ride The Lightning.

                    Am not a fan of Bob Rock (yeah, yeah, I know he produced ALAE) to begin with...I dunno. Guess it was interesting to see, but haven't had any use for Metallica since Master Of Puppets anyway. Hetfield seems like a cool enough guy, but Ulrich has always come across like a dickhead, and Kirk is way overrated IMO. Jason just got tired of dealing with them is what it boiled down to.

                      I've always been rather indifferent to them. I've always thought Lars was a whiny bitch. The other guys were OK.

                        Ulrich is one of the worst drummers in the business, Hetfield was/is a control freak who pretty much single-handedly drove Newsted out of the band, Hammet was a decent guitar player about 10 years ago. New bass player, Trujillo, is pretty good.

                            How is he wrong? Even if you don't like St. Anger, you can't think that Load or ReLoad are better.

                              Load and ReLoad are good rock albums...if you do not think about their first albums these 2 are very good.
