Nope. Lars and Soberfield are the assholes. Newstead wanted to stay heavy (See Voivod)and Lars and co. were busy sucking on the corporate cock trying to grab those "grunge" and "alternative" $$$$$$

I wonder whose faggy assed idea it was to wear eyeliner and black nailpolish. Fuck, that made me even more ashamed and loathing of the once amazing and innovative band they once were ('82-89)

Metallica R.I.P.
1982-1989

Yeah, i think Hetfield always tried to keep Newsted's contributions minimal anyway. Even after 10 years in the band he was still The New Guy, which is probably the reason he left. James was the driving force during the great years and he was the driving force behind the decision to turn alternative-y. That said, who cares about them cutting their hair and wearing nail polish? To me they're irrelevant, what bothered me was the turn for the worse in songwriting. Honestly i don't hate Load. For most bands it would've been a decent effort, just not for the band that had put out MOP.

I agree totally. Even when he should be screaming the lyrics to the classic shit('83-'89) he "sings" them like he's at a fuckin karoke bar. Absolutely lame. This dude is pussified beyond return.
Watching them perform on award shows is enough to make ya vomit as well , with his smiling and winking in the cameras. Total woofter.......

Bands like this , I'd love to see 'em lose everything ($$$) and see how ass kickin their music would be. BIG $$$ = loss of fire.

Fuck 'em. They lost me when I heard the "sing along" "Smell the Black" lp

Uh, the producer Bob Rock played bass on that alb...er, turd, so Trujillo hasn't had an opportunity to show what he can do on record yet. Metallica's done with anyway, cause Hetfield's voice is shot, and he can't "sing" worth a shit anymore!

I'd agree. The last few albums pale in comparison to the early stuff.

So where does that place Paul Stanley?

Well if you added Gene and Paul in there, then you'd have Kiss.
