One of the most important metal bands? Of course. One of the best mainstream bands? For sure. Those who say Metallica is a "horrible band" are just trying to sound as "uniques". Metallica obviously has bad moments, like St. Anger and Lulu, but call all their discography as "trash" (unfortunely not "thrash") is just stupidity or ignorance.

I think its ignorant. Metallica is definitely one of the greatest thrash bands in history, 4 masterpieces in the 80's, but everyone will only remember Lars greedy for money, James' alcoholism and the band's current poor form. They were great, no one can take that away from them. I needed years and maturity to gain respect and love for them. What can I say? There is no reason to assume that they will ever record an album at least at the level of a black album. It is worth approaching them with an open mind and being grateful for what they did for music. Regards!

Metallica is a typical example of an undeniably iconic artist who has lost out to their fame. However, not as rudely as it could be. Think Daisuke Ishiwatari (the dude literally betrayed the fans and lied to them to legitimize his retcons), Kanye West (can he still be considered competent at this stage?) or Taylor Swift (fans are not your personal army...at least in theory).

Better late than never, although I disagree. I think this a good retcon and added an interesting another point of view bout her, humanizing her, y'know

If you don’t care what people say, why post it? Sounds like you’re hoping for some Metallica fans to back you up. What makes them your favorite?

how often Megadeth fans feel the need to say "better than Metallica" vs how often Metallca fans just say both bands are valid is very telling. Little brother syndrome

Metallica has been my favorite band since the early 1990's, they are the example in my opinion of what Greatness is all about on stage and off. Watching Metallica live is something special, they play hard, they play with passion, they care about and love there fans, the lyrics & music is all heart always wanting to get better. The best part about Metallica is it's all about family and the love that goes back and forth is unbelievable. Metallica is relentless on giving back to make the world a better place to live! No one is perfect but they are IMO 'The Example' of how we all should be.

If you have to say your problems to people on a shoutbox about how you feel about a band that you can't stand what they did, then it is a personal problem only to those who thinks it matters to others.

I personally really like their main photos. They look so funny and non-threatening. They make heavy thrash metal, but they look like goddamn cinnamon rolls and Teddy bears in their main photos. And I love it that way.

I've met so many teenagers and menchildren who start waving their arms like sociopaths as soon as they hear the first riff of Master of Puppets, and treat this band like the pinnacle of human creation. We like to joke about fans of Taylor Swift, Radiohead, K-Pop and Tool, but I still believe *some* Metallica fans are the worst fandom. Perhaps that's why I've been an outsider of the metal community entirely. However, it's undeniable that Metallica has created some memorable tracks and have brought joy (and some neck pain lol) to millions of people across the globe, and I'm happy those teenagers and menchildren are happy with their thing.

Dave wrote every single riff on the first 4 albums, everything is dave, they are just a stupid cockrock band without Dave. There is no Metal in lica its all Davetallica. They should change name to Cockllica now.
