Metallica thread

[D]

Just watched The Day That Never Comes Video


What the fuck was that shit?

HAHAHAHA

Worst Video I've ever seen in my life. They'd been better just doing a live video

How about some sort of Domestic Violence video or something?

that video was a waste of a great song.

[Dont Try Me]

yeah, ain't exactly a fan of that video either, great song, not so great video...a bit too cheesy.   

[Hammy]

This album is fantastic!

Really into it now and I love nearly everything about it, my only qualm is the lyrics but I've never expected lyrical greatness with my Metallica records anyway.

I don't know how people can be knocking the drumming either, I think Lars does an awesome job, there are so many tracks on here when I listen to them, they are the kind of tracks that make me think, "Yeah, I'd love to be a drummer".  Not many songs get me thinking that, let alone nearly an entire album.

Kirks work is tops to, I'm no fantastic guitar player and I don't know where he belongs on the greatest of all time list and I don't much care, all I know is his work on this is class.

Unforgiven III and My Apocalypse are my fave tracks at the moment.  I love the way Unforgiven III builds and you think they are going to hit a catchy chorus, then they pull it back, just at the last second and avoid decending into that (If you know what I mean).  Anyways, loving this, and agreed, the video was pretty awful.

I loved the video at first.  I liked the concept of just showing a day in the life of a soldier over there.  But I'll admit that it's a bit cheesy.  And when I watch it now, I find myself wishing there were more shots of just the band playing.

[gilld1]

I love this album.  It's like having an old friend that you haven't seen in years back.  Depending on which song  am listening to, it's my fave.  I think I have to go with All Nightmare Long as tops.

[Layne Staley's Sunglasses]

I was honestly hoping the soldier would have sprayed that family with bullets.

Jump starting a car?

Really?

Hmmm....

S.O.S.....help meeeeeeeeeeeee

THAT was a video. 

[Gunner80]

I knew the mix was bad when I downloaded it off iTunes.  It sounded like shit!  the clipping was horrid.

[gnrlies247]

hey where can i pick up that Metallica box set? i went to Bestbuy today and they siad they haven't heard of such thing and i remember some one in this thread saying something about it so..........where can i get it?

If you mean the coffin box that you can only get at mission metallica or metallica.com. It appears to be sold out though.

They've got it on amazon aswell

[Dead N' Bloated]

Has the box set been sold out forever or just for the time being?

'the day that never comes' - jesus, what an awful video - distracts from the song big time

as far as the song goes - its great while the vocals lay off - methinks its time to fire James!

Sounds like they bolted a Master of Puppets b side with a Load b-side - doesnt sound like they have any idea what sound they want to go for and have merged albums...

They need to call it a day and move on. No band needs to go on forever.

Because that film clip sucked?  Wake up, Goose.

Yes the new video wasn't that  great but atleast the music was good and thats all that really matters, Right?

Metallica are doing a great job, even if their videos aren't that good.

frantic eh, do they still play st. anger too sometimes?

[gnrlies247]

Yeah i didn't think they played songs off that album anymore which is a shame cos theres about 4 or 5 decent tracks off st anger

[crow316]

St. Anger gets a bad rap.  All because of a damn snare drum being turned off.  I still dig it though.

How long is their set usually?  Similar to this?  I realize their songs are extremely long, but only 10 songs?

I would expect to hear anywhere from 18-20 songs in a full set from them. I'd guess anywhere from 2 2 1/2 hrs or so.
