So LastFM will play Metallica on a station with (Guns n Roses radio) Cinderella and Poison and not on a station that plays Slayer and Exodus(Metallica radio)? WTF is wrong with that?

Not nearly as overplayed as Back In Black. Take your whining elsewhere.

This had the potential to be a really good song, but the level of overplaying it received truly killed it.
