it's just like FUCKthat word keeps coming to meFUCKFUCKFUCKKKKKFUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK
>white man loses job to spic>its the least important job in the band
Let me choose my words carefully here....
Insane how different shit would've been if Cliff lived. Him and James would've been the driving force for the band and Lars would've probably gotten his ass kicked out by the 90s.
>>221164498That's complete bullshit lars is Metallica
>>221164525He was Metallica's downfall
>>221164498>Insane how different shit would've been if Cliff livedeh we have no idea. if you listen to interviews they did in 84/85, james/lars/cliff were all kind of on the same page: they were metallica and they were going to do things their way and no one else was going to tell them different. something obviously changed along the way and i doubt cliff would have offered much resistance if they decided to significantly change their sound. also, lars held the metalica copyright. he wasn't going anywhere.
>>221164456>flexes and stretches mouth
Lars is a bad drummer
What's your currently favorite 'tallica song? For me it's Harvester Of Sorrow
HE FUCKING LEFT THE BAND
>>221164498As a swede I apologize for our bus drivers.

I like this :)
Does Trujillo get sixty gorillion in royalties too?
>>221164986The View
INVISIBLE KIDNEVER SEE WHERE HE HID
>>221164498Nah. Lars owns the name "Metallica." I guess the others could all quit and form a new band with Dave Lombardo but they wouldn't have been able to call themselves Metallica. Then Lars could've hired Dave Mustaine as the new Metallica singer just to make James seethe. Would've been a kino metal drama to watch unfold actually.
>>221165095they explain his cut in Some Kind Of Monster. >Rob is "salaried". Technically a hired gun>he doesn't lose any money if the album/tour flops. that burden falls on kirk, lars, james>he gets royalties from any project/album he performed on>in matters of voting, Rob's vote counts for 1/2 of a vote, where as james, kirk, and lars' vote each counts for 1Granted, that was over 20 years ago, so they've probably re-negotiated
>>221165194>Then Lars could've hired Dave Mustainedoubt that would have happened as lars disliked dave the most and still didn't understand why he was mad 20 years later as seen in their scene in the doc
>>221165270At least Lars got in a room with him, James was like 'Fuck that I'm staying in rehab'
>>221164456I think it's fawkin' stock! It sounds stock to my fawkin' ears!
>>221165304this. james pussied out HARD on that. would have been really mature of him to go and clear the air. at least Lars had the balls to sit down with Dave.
>>221165197>1/2 of a voteFor what purpose? 3 people can't tie. His vote would never have an effect.
>>221165363idk. just watch the fuckin movie. that's what they say. don't ask me. i ain't his fucking lawyer. asshole. FUCK YOU.
>>221164456Kek, such a passive aggressive statement.>I'm being very careful not to offend you because we both know you're a retarded meathead with a massive ego who can't handle criticism, but basically I think that riff you wrote is steaming dogshit and you're being a butthurt faggot
>>221165389Is it because he's kind of brown so he gets less of a vote? That would make sense and has a strong legal precedent.
>>221165416This sounds right
>>221165363One person could abstain
>>221165397if you've ever had a relationship with someone who CONSTANTLY needs everything sugarcoated to avoid hurting their feelings and making them angry, you know exactly where Lars is coming from. It's fucking exhausting having to baby someone all the time. Especially a grown-ass man. My dad is a lot like James in that regard. And there's been times where i've been Lars and basically sugar-coated something to the point of saying "fuck you, you're being a pussy"
Isn't/wasn't Lars notorious for getting drunk and starting fights with people who would kick the shit out of him so he would run and hide behind James?
>>221164456https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjYvScUfAnY
>>221165456Was he always like that? Jesus
>>221165494my dad or James? either way, yes.
>>221165456>My dad is a lot like James in that regard.Ouch, sorry to hear that anon
>>221165416the way it should be tbqh
>>221165101strange choice but i respect it. metallica are actually really good at covers
>>221165514their Tuesday's Gone cover with Pepper Keenan is as good or better than the original imo
>>221165511>>221165416go away incels, no one wants you here. we're having a comfy Metallica thread
>>221163627It's "wash my back and I won't stab yours."
>>221165416>Subhumans get subvotesIt's a fair and equitable system. Well done anon.
>>221165531Wash my back? So you won't stab.... what, my ass? This all sounds a bit like the shower room in prison to be honest pham
>>221164986FIGHT FIYAH WITH FIYAH
>>221164525No, but most people don't know he was important for a lot of the business side of things and he also did a lot of arranging. A lot of those songs have the great structure and flow they do because of him.
>>221165574>A lot of those songs have the great structure and flow they do because of him.the practice of bloating up their songs started with him
>>221164986I like Kirk Ulrich's duet with Jason Hetfield on Holy Wars
>>221165456There's a young woman at work who is like this. I only deal with her for maybe an hour or two per week in total, and even that is draining. She even went to the higher ups and said I harassed her. It went nowhere because all I did was politely show her some stuff she overlooked, but damn.
>>221163627He's not a good drummer.He really isn't.And their success?You know what? A lot of is based off of me
>>221165618Starting on Justice, sure. Maybe Cliff was a buffer to that. He did know a lot of music theory and technical shit.
>>221165696He's not wrong
>>221165771I'm sure Dave had some vestigial influence on them, and vice versa. He didn't write their best stuff though. Jump in the Fire and Ride the Lightning excepted.
>>221163627>Can I say something that I think is bullshit? This whole fucking "SKoM posts dates the whole thing." That’s so bullshit. If you *DON’T* put a Some Kind of Monster post in this thread that dates it to this period, and that’s cemented to a trend that’s happening in shitposting right now. I think that’s stupid and total trendy.
>>221163627>those pre-rehab sessions where Lars and Kirk are trying their hardest to be inspired and it cuts to Jaymz looking wasted and miserableunfiltered kino
>>221164986This live version of Disposable Heroes https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-RUrSl4Y7w
>makes prescient observation>is never revisited in the film again>now, when St Anger songs are played live, Kirk plays a solo in them Truly, Kirk and Jason are the only two people in this shit that are cool.
>>221166500>>221166753Does Hammet actually fucking suck at guitar? he can play solos and do riffs pretty fast yet this was the hardest song he ever had to learn. He couldn't do this simple fucking riffhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dDZ5Zozejh4
>>221167189He used to be a good soloist. He's not that great at rhythm playing, James plays all the rhythm parts on records. These days I don't think he gives a shit, he just wants to surf or some shit. Latest record had some god awful uninspired solos
>>221167338The last metallica record is their worst one ever. It literally sounds like AI made shit
>>221167361it's also really slow. it's marginally better if you turn it up to 1.25x but only marginally
>>221164498Hetfield was always the main ideas guy, and Lars always had the feel of how to turn that into an actual song. Burton was a good bass player but largely irrelevant when it came to songwriting except adding a few touches here and there. Even Kirk was more important in that aspect. They would have done Black Album and Load/Reload anyway.
>>221164986https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qo-u4YMwGqY
who?
>>221165029You should apologize for your icey roadways too
>>221167189He's great, just hasn't seemed very inspired for a long time. His phrasing on Ride, Master, Justice, and Black are great. I liked his solo album. That riff thing is just a brain fart anyone could have.
>>221164986Fade to Black is one of them, I probably have like 9 songs from them which I regard as my favorite ones.
This thread seems a little stock
>>221163627>Metallica should always play le primitive heavy metal. Please, my son. Delete this ambient demo track that is quite literally James' cry for help.
>>221168763Didn't he play with King Diamond and stuff
for me? it's frantic
>>221167607>Burton>irrelevant He taught James about music theory and composition you dumb shit. Jfc kill yourself
