black tide is awesome idc what anyone says. they have awesome songwriting abilities and lots of musical talent, plus they don't rip off metallica in the slightest bit. just because theyre not playing the same bullcrap that everyone band plays now doesnt mean they suck

feedingthedemons, dmasa, brandedcfh420....you all need to get a grip. Sounds like a huge load of jealousy. So what if they're doing a cover off of Metallica. Are you going to bash Sully Erna for doing a John Banum cover.??? These guys have ALOT of talent and if they play their cards right, they will make it big unlike all of you.!!!!

i'm pretty sure they are covering "hit the lights" and not "until it sleeps". 1981-1992 = thrash/heavy metal. 1992-now = crap. not hard rock. crap.

If anything Black Tide are ripping off 80's fag metal bands like Poison and Ratt. And their lead singer has not yet hit puberty, seriously man how old is that kid like 12. I'll admit the band has talent but that doesn't mean their music is good
