The most consistently innovative metal band of the late 80s
and 90s was formed in 1981 in California, USA, by Lars
Ulrich (b. 26 December 1963, Copenhagen, Denmark; drums)
and James Alan Hetfield (b. 3 August 1963, USA;
guitar/vocals) after each separately advertised for fellow
musicians in the classified section of American publication
The Recycler. They recorded their first demo, No Life Til'
Leather, with Lloyd Grand (guitar), who was replaced in
January 1982 by David Mustaine (b. 13 September 1961, La
Mesa, California, USA), whose relationship with Ulrich and
Hetfield proved unsatisfactory. Jef Warner (guitar) and Ron

Review about Metallica Still kickass!!! | Reviewer: Johnny
------ About the song Frantic performed by Metallica
While I don't really like St. Anger as much as I loved the older albums, this is still Metallica!!! Never have they done something just to do it, never copied others and while the sound is much different from previous albums it's still Metallica! The one! The only! respect! And never stop!
This is one of my metallica best song lyrics is freaking good riff are heavy and solos are fantastic i dont know how hetfield have written its riff and lyrics he is very talanted in his guitar job i think better than muistane in writing riffs
this song truly reflects cliff burtons | Reviewer: Mike
------ About the song For Whom the Bell Tolls performed by Metallica
this song truly reflects cliff burtons input in the music that metallica has produced after cliff had died they moved away from thrash album after album until Death Magnetic
for you losers whom only concern is to compare megadeth with metallica give it a rest
metallica has changed direction from thrash to heavy metal (they said from the start they wouldnt restrict themselves in 1 genre )
On the other hand Megadeth have stayed true to thrash (and Dave Mustaine made metal music more intricate than before ,i mean just listens to megadeth newest album END GAME you will know what im talking about

Moses was not the son of a Pharo | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Creeping Death performed by Metallica
Wow, you had me believing Dan, until you mention that Moses is a first born Pharoes son?? He was born out of a hebrew slave and sent off in a basket where the Pharoes sister found him and took him in as her own son. I'm by no means a religious freak, but I've seen the movie many times and understand the story from reading a little too.
Metallica is great, I think a metal band singing about the story is kick @$$ and wouldn't expect others to try this and succeed. It's a pretty old song, glad to see others like it, I just happened on to this site to find the lyrics to show somebody Metallica really did write a song about Moses and the Angel of Death.

in my opinion,this song doesn't belong to metallica,it belongs to James.It reminds me of a very close person that to me she was like a mother,even more...I really understand this song and the lyrics are very powerful.I just would like to say-thank you James,for making me feel good,and sorry about what you've gone through...

------ About the song ...And Justice for All performed by Metallica
I don't know about everyone else, but I don't really like Metallica's newer stuff simply because it lacks the passion that was present throughout the first four albums. It just seems like their playing to get payed, not because it's what they love to do. I could be wrong of course, but to me that's just the message I get from their music.
And please, please, please...
Don't EVER compare Rob to Cliff.

------ About the song Fade to Black performed by Metallica
Timmy,
Ok, I see what your thinking. However your wrong mate. Metallica isnt making songs to say "Hey kid kill yourself." Of course they wouldnt do that, because well they love there fans bro. The Song "Nothing Else Matters" Shows this. At first this song was about one of James Hetfields previous Girlfriends. However he forgot the whole thing and now metallica said "The song is for there fans." The Song master of puppets you were talking about? What do you think that means? Suicide? Death? Kill? No. The Song 'Master of Puppets' Is about how drugs can control your life and there YOUR master while you are the puppet. "The Master Of Puppets is pulling your strings, twisting your mind and smashing your dreams." It sais the master is pulling your strings twisting your mind and smashing your dreams. This shows how drugs have complete control of your life. It's far from a bad meaning. They say how drugs will totally control the fuck out of ya and if ya see this you should think twice before considering drugs. Anyway about you saying will they care about you? Think again bro. They have over millions and i mean MILLIONS of fans. If someone who killed themself over this song, its not like they wont care, its that they wont KNOW. They love there fans and if they found out about it, they wont try to do anyhting but theyll feal a little bad at least man.
Now Timmy, Just listen to what im saying and perhaps think on whats wrong with your comment.

ok well mate, as you say random love songs, i agree metallica stand on a lot of relavant topics but i think if you have any matrurity at all you will realise that love is one of the most powerful and upstanding issues up with corruption, war, money, ghreed power, hate and anger...so i think youd better take a very hard good long look in the mirror and realise what you are trying to say...random love songs are more powerful than you can contemplate my boy

why do people have to nit-pick everything apart that they either don't like or don't understand? It's simple to me: if you don't like it, don't listen to it! You won't hear me condemning your taste in music, so like the song says, love it or leave it!

Timmy, buddy.
FUCK U.
Look mate, what kind of fuckind sadist of a fucking god would wish us to lead lives without pleasure?
YOu tell me you dumb fucking piece of shit.
You were Bipolar and ADHD.
ADHD? So am I, and so I have always been, Looong before I listened to metal.
Accepting christ may have healed you of your Bipolar, and given your life a focus, but Metallica has nothing to do with that.
Because you are a irrational person, I will explain this to you on irrational terms.
Your favourite preacher preaches fundamental bullshit on TV, or would, if you didn't beleive that TV is evil. Anyway, this man is insightful and may have an unparraeled comprehension of God and the universe.
Well, you die, from some tragedy or the next, by which he was somehow an indirect cause, and he hears about it. This man may feel terrible about it, it may sadden him deeply. However, he never KNEW you. He never had a personal relationship with you, you never met. If you had, you may have been friends with the man. Well, replace that man with a thrash metal band.
You love their music, you love their lyrics, you almost idolise them.
Well, they hear about your death. They feel terrible, they are saddened. What could they have done? They didn't know you, they are to you as the preacher could have done. People die all the time, and we can't always stop it.
I don't hate the church, I think that really, their current teachings are really quite positive, they promote love, peace, life, and in general, acceptance. Even if I can't find it in me to accept their religon totally, I love these aspects.
Anyway, back to your most recent post- You claim to have submitted an honest review, despite the fact that you did not mention Metallica's merit as an actual band- you just used this forum as an opportunity to preach your fundamentalist bullshit. Well, telling us that Metallica's music is demonic, and that Metallica is intrinsically evil is NOT an objective review.
I mean, a purely objective music review is almost impossible, seeing as music is used as an expression of emotion and everyone is bound to react differently to different tracks. Well, you have actually transcended from disliking a style, to pure unreason.
Smeh.
I can't actually be bothered finishing this post.
Byeeee
I dont get why everyone only likes pre-black album, St. Anger is awsome death magnetic is amazing aswell what up with you guys ?
What do you think is bad about them, and they havent lost there edge lars is better than ever, Rob trujillo is amzing compared to newsted and cliff, kirk and hetfiled are even better at guitar i just dont see your problem. i love all there stuff.

metallica will always be metallica unless james hetfield or lars ulrich leave, because they started the band; mustaine, burton, hammet, and trujillo all followed and add their own thing but without james or lars the band would sound completely different and end up not even being metallica. so stop bitching about mustaine and hammet for god's sake!

------ About the song Fade to Black performed by Metallica
Wow I didn't realize that those few messages that I sent would leave such an impact. I thought that this site was supposed to be about rating the song, I can't believe you are still using it to criticize me, expecialy since my opion dosn't matter. I will quit leaving comments but I will leave you with this. You could give up all the rock n roll, metal, and pop,etc., and whatever else you wanted to and be the best person in the world, and that wouldn't make you a Christian. Completely yeilding your life to Christ, and putting your faith in Him to save you from your sins is what needs to take place. After you do that you will not want to listen to this junk and you will start desiring good instead of evil. I know from experience. I used to get depressed and suicidal, I thought I was bypolar, and I thought I had ADHD. I believe these are all just names for demon oppresion, because when I accepted Christ they all departed. And I can't help but share. If you ever get to the point were you don't think you can make it anymore. Go to kjvbible.net and read John 3:16
Cure | Reviewer: Fiona
------ About the song Cure performed by Metallica
The cure isn't a bullet... "The man takes another bullet" is a reference to Hetfield being an alcoholic. His favourite beer is Coors Lite also known as the silver bullet. The song is saying that everyone has ways of dealing with their problems, be it through alcohol, drugs or religion however they only work as long as you "believe" they help.
'Tallica Fan Boy | Reviewer: Joshua
------ About the song Motorbreath performed by Metallica
You can call me a Metallica fan boy if you want, but I happen to like every song they're ever created. James Hetfield has a one-of-a-kind voice that you can't replace. Motorbreath is an example of the 1980's birth of Thrash Metal. James Hetfield is the "Grandfather of Speed Metal" so my recording studio brother says.
People say this was the most metal album ever. Frankly, I don't care if they took a more country-feel with "Load" and "ReLoad", or didn't input any solos in "St. Anger". From "Kill 'Em All" right up on through "Death Magnetic", the re-makes of their own on "S&M", or their covers on "Garage Inc."--Metallica is Metallica. Nothing more, nothing less, than the greatest, and first Thrash Metal band.
the sanitarium | Reviewer: Anonymous
------ About the song Sanitarium performed by Metallica
i find this to be one of their best downer/anger songs. Anyone who has ever had to battle with themselves or a mental illness can understand it. I can't speak for the writers intentions on it. It does simply describe the state of how you feel in an asylum. And as for the moon is always full line. I believe that refers to the systematically numbing routine every night. I know in my experience i never slept because it was always like a full moon night. I was always staring at the sky through the caged windows and the light from the constant suicide checks simply put represents that full moon that lights the sky and can obscure the stars around it. Very well written song. Very thought out. My review would be too long if i posted it all

...speaking about "demons" and stuff, have you ever took the time to listen to this full album, and, to be more specific, the outrageous song entitled "Creeping Death"?, just for you to know, it was written by these "puppets", and you know what the main theme is?, the 10th plague of Egypt(kind of cool that your "demons" inspired them to write about that huh?), take a deep breath man!, chill out, for no one can claim you, nor your soul unless you walk their path, that's the very sense of the most precious gift we have: Free Will...

------ About the song Fade to Black performed by Metallica
Ok.
So music is a language, music is emotion.
Would Metallica care if I killed myself?
They probably wouldn't EVEN KNOW.
Now, if a classical fan kills himself, what does Mozart or Pachbel care? Nothing. They're dead.
If an Elton John follower decides to kill himself after listening to Tiny Dancer, will Elton John find out? Unlikely.
He just wants your money (ie, to make a living)
Money makes the world go round, money and music.
Everyone is after money- fact of life.
Music is just Metallica's form of self expression.
If they feel depressed they write depressing song, and if they feel elated they write happy songs.
Besides, killing your fanbase isn't exactly a viable method of creating revenue.
Besides, quite a lot of Metallica's songs reflect classic compositions.
Shut the fuck up, ignorant conservative retard.
You know fuck all, so go die in a hole.

Oh btw, just putting this out there...
How are envy hate and STRIFE "works of the flesh"?
Honestly, I am a sinner by definition, though I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't screw around, (though I'm sure most metalheads don't) I play Xbox... I have never had thoughts of suicide, as I doubt the exsistence of God, as I have done since I was ten years old.
Master of Puppets is not about Satan controlling Metallica- it's about cocaine.
To be honest, nowadays Metallica don't even lead self-destructive life styles. They are just ordinary people, with alot of money.
No band can care about their fans on a personal level, as they don't actually KNOW their fans on a personal level.
If you think Metallica should be an exception, and should personally attend the funeral of every single on of their fans that die, you are an idiot.
Although now I come to think of it, I am sorta touched that you made the attempt to save my mortal soul.
Just remember that the only sin that can't be forgiven is ignorance.
