It used to really get to me how ppl say "I USED to be a fan until ____ album came out.
I started listening to Metallica during the Reload dayz....granted, not their heaviest stuff. But I have realized that people do grow and mature and their (bands) sound will probably follow suite.
I fucking love all things Metallica. They put on a most excellent show and I just love them to pieces. Of course I prefer the older stuff now...but man, the newER stuff is killer too! I'm not the hugest St. Anger fan.....but, I can appreciate the fact they were expanding their creative horizons.
Metallica, I THINK, demands respect as they are one of the very few bands that have been around 20+ years and are still rockin' it hard! Still packing venues. Selling millions. They're doing something right. And while the thought of them without Cliff OR Jason is kinda......odd, they still have my vote as one of my top 3 (if not tied for first with TOOL) fav. bands.
