They have thier own channel on XM radio right now playing nothing but MetallicA 24/7, WEEEEEEEEEEEEEBLARGHANAMAMA...!!!! I love it. I am sure its to promote the new album but i dont care. Its great to thumb through and not hear anything, or when some lame a$$ PSA comes on my talk radio station, i can hit the Metallica preset and all is immediately right with the world!
Love em or hate em, they are doing what they love and found a way to make $$$$$ at it. Cant blame them. Yeah, some of the stuff i have heard id lame a$$ whiner emo for sure. Linkin park " I hate my parents" poop in a bucket.
Oh well, i was a bit shocked with St Anger but man i get it. I like it after the little adjustment period. Its good stuff. To me anyways. And yeah im in my 30s, ive had every CD and then some imports, anything i could get my hands on at a CD shop back in the day. They changed as people and are rolling with it.Better that than being the guys people say "remember that on band" while you are playing the few songs people liked at a mall. Okay im done. yeah they went corporate, Lars seems to be a d!ck to me, Kirk has always seemed a little light in the loafers, but DAMN he can play one hell of a guitar. I have allways identified with James though. Dont know why. Mabye because we share a birthday. Whatever. And i just havent gone to rehab yet.
Oh well im done, not defending anyone here, just thinking out loud. Ill prolly download it like everyone else and them save or delete.
rock on.....
