Metallica - Death Magnetic

I don't even have to hear this to know it's gonna suck big time balls. It's pretty simple. Metallica used to make good music, now they're just a bunch of whiny old men who should be retired. Metallica, and many other classic bands, are trying to hold onto what they once had, and are just failing pathetically. We're in the age of nostalgia right now and there are many bands who are making comebacks, touring, putting out new material, just basically milking the fame thing for all its' worth. And for WHAT? Just to give the fans another chance to see them plus give the newer generations the chance to see how pathetic they are.

Van Halen recently did a comeback tour, and I heard it sucked. You can see some footage on YouTube. Extreme has a new album, but I guess they're not so old.. Alice Cooper. Rolling Stones. Motley Crue. AC/DC. New Kids on the Block. Fuck, even grindcore bands that have been out of action are making comebacks, like Carcass. It's just too much. Why can't people just be happy with what they did when they were good and leave it at that. How many times can a band get back together before they realize they just don't have it anymore. Fuckin' retire with dignity instead of looking like idiots.

The only recent "comeback" that just slayed me was Celtic Frost's new album and that came out 2 years ago.

Back to Metallifuck. Lars sucks cock and I urge you ALL to not buy this and copy it just to piss little Lars off, the whiny little drummer boy fuck. And who the hell designed the cover? It looks like a an abnormal vagina. Dumb title. Not as dumb as St. Anger but almost.

Metallica used to be a cool name, and I was proud to wear their shirts, but if I wore a Metallica shirt now, it would feel pretty much like wearing a sports shirt with a great big Nike swoosh on it meaning Metallica is nothing but a fast food nu-metal franchise now.

Don't waste your time. Listen to the old stuff when they were still cool.

You are so right. Nobody should be making "comebacks". Like you shouldn't have come back from Japan. You should have been skinned and fed to Godzilla or something. That way Godzilla would have choked on your swollen and bloated carcass, died and could never reappear and you couldn't have posted this horrible mess. The world would have been a much better place I agree.
