Why do metalheads hate them again? Because their songs have melodies?
>>124340824Their first four albums are certified classics. People shit on them because they're popular and because they haven't released anything good since the 80s.
They got too good. Metalheads need their music to be shitty for them to like it.
>>124340824Because non-metalheads like them. Same reason why progtards hate Pink Floyd, EDM junkies hate Aphex Twin, etc. They're too good so normal people like them, and genrecucks need to feel special
Metalheads have always liked Metallica. Only millennial metal hipsters started hating on them.
>>124340824Self-identified "metalheads" only like shitty metal, i.e. black/death metal. Actually good metal, like Black Sabbath, Dio, Metallica, Rammstein -- they don't even consider to be "real" metal.
>>124340824No because Power Metal is largely melodic and didn't appeal to mainstream audiances until like The 2000s. No other reason.
*ABSOLUTELY DEMOLISHES EVERY OTHER METAL BAND THAT EVER EXISTED*https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8xjWINhT68
>>124340824They don't consider them "real" metal because in the early 90's they toned down the speed and heaviness and cut their hair, as opposed to other bands of their era like Slayer and Megadeth still churning out thrash albums. Kill, Ride, Master and Justice are thrash classicsBlack, Load and Reload are great fucking albums too, though. They're heavily slept on, Load in particular, is really good. Their last two albums have actually been good too. Hardwired is a lot heavier and thrashier than you'd expect. 72 has some bangers. I really like songs like Too Far Gone?
>>124341070Also Slayer had arguably mainstream appeal or at least sold a lot of copies and isn't exactly very melodic to say the least.
>>124341106Everything after Reign is pretty melodic. Slayer made the mistake of chasing the nu-metal trend towards the end of the late 90's / early 00's. Say what you want about Metallica, but at least they didn't sink that low.
>>124340824not enough breakdowns for the zoomies
>>124340824tick tock
>>124341238>he posts raw phone screenshots without wiping any of the metadata or anythinglmao welcome kid
>>124341253cry about it
>>124340824Once they rebuilt St. Anger everyone realized it was close to 9/10. Worst production quality in the history of music like four of their greatest bangers are on St. Anger.Frantic, SKOM, Sweet Amber, Shoot Me Again
>>124341117Sure but they got popular before that I'm prettysure. I honestly hate Slayed as much as I do Metallica. Best normie approved metal bands are the nwobhm ones I would say and then BOC.
>>124340824We do?
>>124340976/threadSad really, people are too easily influenced by the opinions of others
>>124341117>Say what you want about Metallica, but at least they didn't sink that low.Except they literally did with Shit Anger.
>>124341320>I honestly hate Slayedwhat's wrong with Cum On Feel the Noize?
>>124340824What? We don't. I just think they're overrated, but they aren't bad. Their big 80s albums range from okay to good. But they have some phenomenal songs. It's just that their albums have too much filler.
>>124340824Because they cut their hair and became a lame dad/buttrock band. Anyone under 40 is too young to remember when they were cool
>>124341836Girls rock your BoysAnd get WILD WILD WILDAnd get WILD WILD WILD (They get mogged hard by Bowie and Glam-Era Solo-Eno desu. Also Beebop Deluxe.)
>>124341819And then Lou Reed ended up selling out with them before posting MLP and then dying. Bochi The Rock would have been disapointed.
>>124342488Slade kick ass and so do Sweet and Suzi Quatro
>>124341026>Rammstein>good>metal
>>1243412534chan strips metadata from pics you newfag
>>124342549>le rammstein is not metal!Go back to metal archives, faggot
>>124342574It's gay German nightclub music
Can I even say I like Metallica if I don't care for more than half of its discography?
>>124341070Load and Reload are great. luv me some cowboy metal. Ronnie as amazing, shame they don't play it live.
>>124342626gem
>>124340824I'll like them once they play Dyers Eve live without fucking it up.
>>124340824Hetfield has the worst voice of any singer in rock music. And they were the first buttrock band. Their later material is basically just perfectly corporate "rock" with as little distinguishing it from other bands as possible.The earlier albums are better but still have James sounding like that working against them.
the big 3
>>124340824>Because their songs have melodies?Yes. I listen to Thrash Metal for speed and riffs, by the time Master of Puppets came out they had sacrificed that to become more melodic and get better mainstream appear, which worked out well for them. I don't mind melodic stuff but I don't necessarily want it in the metal that I listen to, I don't see the point of it.
>>124342600What an original opinion
>>124343146>I listen to Thrash Metal for speed and riffsSo you prefer to listen to a band playing two power chords for 6 minutes as long as they play fast
>>124342595Imagine getting your entire genre mogged by "gay German nightclub music". EMBARRASSING
>>124340824They are the best band ever. I never understood how people don’t see that.
>>124342856your monthly reminder that the itunes version of Death Magnetic is absolutely great.
>>124343230mogged according to whom?
>>124340824Tallica is hated by fags trying too hard
>drumbeat is in 24/7
>>124340824their music became too soft with their self titled album so metalheads hated that (which is funny because they were still heavier than Sabbath and you see metalheads praising Sabbath all the time)
>>124343463Sabbath was authentic and a massive contributor to metal’s development. The Gay Album was a sell-out that took the genre backwards. Big difference.
>>124343515>writing good melodies is a sell-outWhy are retards like this?
>>124340824boring pop metal for normalfags
>>124340824Because they are good and popular. And because their reinventions were mostly good...and popular.
First 3 albums are great. AJFA is a good album with a boring mix. Fuck the 90s. St. Anger is actually pretty good on its own fucked up terms. Everything after is better than the 90s, I guess.
megalllica became uncool when they went to group therapy in some kind of monster, and also protested napster
>the big 4lmao imagine trying to pass Anthrax as big anything of anything. The only big 4 are lars, james, kirk and jason
>>124340824don't hate them but >>124342600 massively overrated, great songwriters my ass, hard carried by Dave, Cliff and Bob Rock
>>124344096>dude it like doesn't matter that they pussied out their music to appeal to normalfags it like has melody or something nowWhy are retards like this?
>>124343515The Black Album is the blueprint for modern metal. Whether that's good or bad is up to you.
>>124340824because they went from making great thrash metal to cheesy ballads like "nothing else matters"
>>124340824>Why do metalheadsretardation
>>124343225Initially yes, but after I discovered D-Beat I realised there was a genre that does that better than Thrash and for shorter. In a way it kind of makes sense given how many Thrash/Extreme Metal bands were influenced by Discharged, which is just fast distorted guitars and drumming with no melody and shouting vocals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRgt-H50Pxkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZPduVqluhMFor melodic stuff I listen to dance music instead.
>>124343293How could that possibly be true?
I have lost the will to live
﮳>>124340824Compromised their arts authenticity for mass appeal
>>124342856These albums are abominations and still mog 99% of thrash metal
>>124340976Pink Floyd isn't prog thoThat would be more for KC or Genesis
>>124350644Eh, they're okay. Death Magnetic has alright songs brickwalled to hell, Hardwired has a fine first half, and 72 Seasons...is a Metallica album. It's certainly not anything else.
>>124340824cause they actively steer away from the metalhead label
>>124341026>Shitty metal i.e. black/death metal what a fucking pleb, you cannot hang mate,
>>124353689How about hang yourself, "mate"
>>124340824Because they suck ass. Sellouts who sell their shirts at Walmart
>>124350644>mog 99% of thrash metalNo
