Rate The Musician/Artist #1 - Metallica
I decided that alongside Helmsphere, I would do a Rate The, of my own, But for bands, or artists. I will be putting up 1-2 Artists or Musicians A day if I can. Im open for suggestions. I will be keeping track of the ratings, and giving a Ranked list daily.
Up first is a personal favorite of mine -Metallica- http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...2003-12-19.jpg Metallica is an American heavy metal band formed in Los Angeles, California in 1981. Metallica has become one of the most commercially successful musical acts of recent decades, and are considered one of the "Big Four" pioneers of thrash metal, along with Anthrax, Slayer, and Megadeth.<sup class="noprint Template-Fact"></sup> The band has sold more than 90 million records worldwide,<sup id="_ref-1" class="reference"></sup> including 57 million albums in the United States alone<sup id="_ref-3" class="reference"></sup>, which makes them the most commercially successful thrash metal band of all time. Members (current) James Hetfield Lars Ulrich Kirk Hammett Robert Trujillo Former Members Jason Newsted Cliff Burton Dave Mustaine Ron McGovney Lloyd Grant |
I Rate them 9.5 (Because of there new crap)
|
4/10. Highly overrated, they feature a drummer who couldn't drum for the first 25 years of their band. They popularised the infamous "Cookie Monster" vocals which have helped to keep metal as gay as humanly possible for years, and rarely offer anything that's actually reasonably original.
Yeah, I know. ZOMG METALLICA. they'll rank high. Mostly because 80% of "Metal" fans have only heard of them, four Nu Metal Bands, and maybe Slayer. |
Hey Thats your opinion, Thats why its You rate them, and not Me rate them.
|
7/10

5/10
because I hate Lars Ulrich |
8/10 because of their phenomenal live shit back in 89/92.
|
I saw them in '92..
:cool: |
10/10....
Dont care much for the new crap but Ive seen them twice in the past two years and they are freaking awesome live...that only played one song off St.Anger.... |
9/10 I hate this new direction it is going and I despise Lar$ Urlich. Nowadays I have to designate to people that I like the old Metallica. I guess some of the talent went with the hair
On a side note I am sick of people who say the love Metallica and then cant name a song besides "Enter Sandman". |

Seriously, Hetfield, at the very least, is every bit the asshat that Lars is. If not worse. on a side note, to most people, Sandman's the only song they've ever done. |
I hate Lars because he was main guy who "hazed" Jason Newstad and made him quit the band. Plus Lars lead the Napster Crusade.
|
So when we gonna see artist 2?
|
5/10
KEA and RTL had so much energy in them, even with the cheesey lyrics and entirely 80's sound they still stand out as the best imo, maybe not artistically but as a metal band they were never better and they never managed to produce anything as consistent. Master of Puppets is a over-blown "could've been immense" album and the production on And Justice is disgraceful, again could've been brilliant but in the end its a mess. Black album was good for what it was but the passion and energy of the early years was already gone, beyond that...meh |
Infact I'm gonna go on the record here as far as MOP is concerned, I used to adore it, and I've no idea why:
Battery - is great, no denying it, perfect opener MOP - Good moments, but far, far too long, just no need to string it out like that, I want to turn it off 3 minutes in TTTSNB - Nice riff, again unecessarily long WH (sanitarium) - Not a patch on Fade to Black, totally pointless Disposeable Heroes - I can't even think of the main riff to this, that says it all Leper Messiah - ditto, and I've listened to this album MANY times Orion - I like it, again I think its overly long, but this was as good as their prog-delvings got by a mile Damage Inc - awesome So yeah, it shoulda been an EP, some masterpiece:foc: |

6/10.
Never as good as Slayer. Lombardo >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lars And I'll always find Seasons in The Abyss a better album than Master of Puppets. But they had some decent songs like Battery and The Four Horsemen. Eh. Mustaine was with them when they wrote that song. No wonder it was actually good. |
