New Metallica Album Release Date Delayed Again

Band Photo: Metallica (?)
Sources from Metallica's record label reportedly told Stereo Warning that the release of the band's new album has once again been pushed back. The up-coming follow-up to St. Anger now apparently won't be available until September this year. Lars Ulrich made the first claim that it would see light in February, but then the release date changed to April. That, too, changed when the band was still in the studio months later. The last time Metallica took so long in the studio resulted in the "Black Album."

yea yea yea, another delay. let the metallisheep begin the crying game!!!!....wuhahahahaha...YO METALLICA, STOP BEING LIKE AXL POSER AND RELEASE IT ALREADY. I WILL NOT BUY IT, BUT YOUR METALLISHEEP HAVE EATEN ALL THE GRASS UP FROM THIS PASTURE, AND ANOTHER DELAY FORCES THEM INTO ANOTHER PASTURE..baaaaaaa baaaaaaaaa baaaaaaaa metallisheep...your "metal gods" have forsaken you again!!!!! wasting time, money, and fans paitience is all they are doing. however, im glad cause it means no new metallica music for a while!!!!

i love listening to the metallisheep here in charlotte. o they rule...there are no higher...noone comes close to them, etc, etc, etc...trendy fuktards, metallica will never, I REPEAT NEVER, be the metal kings they once were. after lars began his sue crazy days, james going into rehab, jason quitting the band (good move i think), now another delay on a cd that will 99% bomb in my opinion, it can only mean that they are trying to build up the hype for a huge turd!!!!!

wow....why cant metallica just accept there music is trash...they problly think that this is gonna keep fans on the edge of there seats waiting for this but there just gonna lose the couple hundred fans they have left
and by the way lars ulrich HAS to be the gayest person in music...wat a fag

I keep thinking about a scene in that some kind of monster movie (yeah I watched it), where the label exec shows up to listen to the st. anger stuff, and as it plays, you can see he thinks it sucks. when it's done, he asks about the stuff they recorded before that at another location. maybe someone this time around told them that the new stuff sucks and they need to do a better job. no way they can recapture their old school vibe, but they can sure as hell not put out another piece of crap like st. anger

james is a sober b****,Lars is a sh**ty f***ing drummer that cant even play real double bass anymore(oh my Heart Mur-Mur).Kirk is washed up and has a strap-on shoved in his a$$ every night.There new bass player R.T. might be the only good thing left in this band,(but dont count on it,like metallica would ever let his 2 cents in.) this band should of all died when the bus fell on Cliff .why god did you not take them all so they could be remebered as a truly great metal band.f*** Um.... Those that get p***ed at this entry should remember that any old schoolers out there know what i'm talking about.
^It would not at all surprise me. Lars has a habbit of inserting foot in mouth everytime he speaks. I also think that this great because we get another thread to bash sh**allica in! I was by all means done with ever defending sh**allica whfn St Anger came out. Load and Reload where very mediocre. sh**allica should just call it quits.
Ah well I see most of us agree that Metallicrap sucks huge donkey balls. I don't even get it. Why do they want to get to their old glory days ? They should just try to be good. To achieve what they once done is very hard, the expectations so high. Just call it a day guys, you're reputation is already tarnished, don't make it even worst than that. Great players know to retire when they are still at the top of their game. Well guys you are at the bottom of your game, just like Korn. Go away and keep an once of respect from some of us. In my book you lost it all a few years back, especially when they got their fa**ot hair cuts.

To post 12 who calls himself an old skool fan.. u are the biggest f***ing joke in thrash metal history. infact ur not even part of it.
if u call urself true thrash blood.. i will destroy my denim and burn it..... to wish death on anyone, ur a disgrace to the deceased. a disgrace to metal, a disgrace to Cliff, a disgrace to chuck schuldiner, paul baloff and many great fallen heros.

to old skool trash.......Baloff sucked---to exodus's credit the newest album and the last album by far the best ever exodus album's ever there new singer blows baloff away(good riddance)....Death was a tremondus band but...how do you feel that the band members are trying to replace chuck now that he's passed on....complete sh** if you ask me.you probably burn your denim it might do you good and pop some of those nasty zit's off your face and shave what you call a goatee off your face and become a emo queer...still will say metallica sux and have sucked since Cliff passed .Master of puppets,ride the lightning,and kill em all best metallica ever anything after that complete and utter sh**, no direction or talent just thrown together pieces of crap to sell to a bunch of new generation red hot chilli pepper fans.. I'll stand by my comment and still say Metallica died on a cold dark icy road in switzerland and took the only thing good thing from us that night....CLIFF BURTON the heart and soul of Metalllica...........dont agree with me let's hear it...cause the truth hurts

I agree with Old Skool thrash.....those comments were bullsh**. Hopefully Metallica's album will be worth the wait...Rick Rubin has a history of producing some of the greatest albums ever.....I may not be a fan of a few of the groups or people he's worked but he's turned around and launched a lot of careers....I believe he will be able to the same with Metallica...I'm not gonna cry about havin to wait....if it comes out it comes out if not then so what.....it's been pushed back a few months...it's not like it's been ten years...might feel like it because of St. Anger

LMAO gotta love ur comment, ur statment about me couldnt be so far out if u even tried :P just because i have my denim dont mean i have zits and a goaty HAha good one though u stereotypical poser :P stand by your comment, im not asking you to change ur mind. lmao and ur statement about baloff? and you call yourself old school HEHE, funny old school you are :P you obviously know nothing about death! they are doing a tribute for chuck schuldiner - not trying to release a completely new album under "death" u anal fag. everyone knows Chuck schuldiner is Death - no-one could resurrect death without the maestro !!
old school metallica fan wtf r u talking about? for one ...And Justice For All kicked a$$ and two the heart and soul of Metallica was James Hetfield and Lars Ulrich not Cliff and third if you wish death upon someone that just makes inhumane. Baloff sucked? Baloff was the best singer Exodus ever had, Souza is good but Baloff was alot better, and while I may like Dukes he is alittle more modern so Baloff all the way.
Regarding Exodus, I personally would say that Rob Dukes is my favourite vocalist but that's just me. Baloff was the man however. He was better than Zet in my opinion. Also, although, as I said before, Dukes is my favourite Exodus vocalist, I wasn't impressed at all by The Atrocity Exhibition though I loved Shovel Headed Kill Machine.

To brandedcfh420 & all others who just trash talk away, go lick each others a$$ holes, then the sh** spouting from your mouth wont smell as bad. #1 call everyone metallisheep, look at you, you "hate metallica" but you have to clink on a link that says metallica on it. You are all hypocrites. If i see a thread that has bullet for my valentine or avenged sevenfold in the title, i dont click. ITS THAT SIMPLE

yes, we click the link to come to the threads to talk smack on these putrid wrinkled up has beens....and i will continue to do so, and you cant stop me...so if it bothers you that bad, dont respond in the thread..waaaaaaaaaa waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...another crying metallislut......

you little emo co**s need to quit ur b*tching. Its Metallica for christ sakes. so waht there last few albums have been bad. you call urself true old school metallica fans but if that was so have u turned ur back on things like Master of Puppets or Ride the Lightning that quick? ok u dont llike them either thats fine but when u gutless a**holes start talking about when cliff died and how it should have killed them all, are you kidding me. Metallica has earned everything they have, if they wanna make a few sucky albums they can. they are still the best at what they do. so emos just go play on the highway or cut urself some more
Um... I am confused. What the f*** makes me emo when I bash sh**allica?? We are not abandoning albums... We are adandoning a band that just plain does not get it and yet they try to with no true intelligence or even the slightest bit of effort! To add to that sh**allica have attacked their own fans for just simply trying to listen to their music when they were makeing more than they were worth in merchandise and concert sales. To top it off Lars the dumbest f***ing drummer in the entire history of metal keeps opening his mouth and inserting foot into mouth! Then keep pushing an album back time and again to further the agrivation of what little fans they do have! In which it seems that the fans they do have are idiots. f*** sh**allica!

You guys are p***ies you guys dont know wat metal is if it hit your stupid emo a$$ in the head . you guys listen to as i lay cryin and avenged b****fold cds they suck the music you "Call Metal" sucks so have fun lisenin to you almost easy songs and retarted sh** like that have fun you fa**ots !!! and have fun listenin to the new fallout d*** cd

HAVE YOU CONSIDERED LEARNING THE PROPER WAYS TO TYPE SENTENCES?? looks like another metallisheep that doesnt know how to use english properly. waaaaaaaaaaa waaaaaaaaaaa waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. he hate buttallica and we hate you. DUMBA$$ ILLITERATE FUKTARD.
Why is that?! These idiots dont know whats in our album collections or what bands we like. I hate sh**allica, but that does not mean that I own a single emo song or album or that I cry about life. I am a metaler, I get p***ed and actually do something to make life better... Not cry about it.
I think the whole controversy(sp) about "Metalsheep" and "Emos" will never end sadly. Metalheads want music with actually good guitar and amazing drums and lyrics, and "Emos" say there music has that, which piss' off Metalheads cause obviously most the time it isnt true. Basically like your music and dont say its better then so and so. I dont care that much for people who listen to A7x and BFMV stuff as long as theres no bragging. and I hate Genres! why cant it be simple, its like everyband needs there own genre because they sound different. Its a BAND! its supposed to sound different from the rest. There should be like 6 groups of Metal genres and BFMV and that type music should exclude Metal from it to end this b****ing, its retarded and makes you all look like internet nerds. Play an instrument, listen to your music and shut up
I dont mind generes, it helps decribe the sound and gives me an idea what I am in for. Its only when its grossly misused by Metallisheep that call me emo for not being happy with a has been band that I get irritated. I do think you are right though, Kirk is a good guitar player and would be better off without sh**tallica. The question would be is he brave enough and smart enough to do so?
*LOL* A little self deciet is fun. I think the Black album is when Metallica died, then Load was when sh**tallica was born. I know I am not buying the new album. I am not ever going to even replace my old Metallica albums most likely. I will download for free, just to piss them off.
LOFL ! Yeah great Idea and then I could take a photo of me downloading their songs, butt naked, and send it to Lars with the following note : Up yours f***tard.
Kirk Hammett just told me that he is considering quiting Metallicrap to do gay porn movies. He's been in the gay side of things since Load so he feels that it's just a step in the right direction.

This is, by far, the gayest thread i have ever read. seriously, get a life. This is why this site is almost non-existent these days. My IQ level drops every post i read from branded or any of the other pathetic internet nerds who make up for zero social skills by "talking smack" about a band. Like they read any of it. Please, do the few actual "readers" that come by here a favor and drink a bullet. I bet this gets removed, while the 90% awful posts above will stay.

Scr&w All You Mother F**king B@st@rds...METALLICA IS THE BEST METAL/ROCK Band ever!!!...So They Had Some Gay Prick Hollywood B@st@rd F*ck up the band...YEA I'm Talking About You Bob Rock You F*ckin Pig!!! Wasnt James Drinking Or Jason Leaving It Was Bob Rock...World Renound Band Destroyer...When Your In The Music Industry There Is Something Called A CONTRACT PEOPLE and even if they wanted to Tell BOB No it wasnt going to happen until the contract was up!!! Metallica Loves You Guys I PROMISE YOU WILL LOVE The New Album!!!!!

waaaaaaaaaaaa waaaaaaaaaaaaaa waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....i think your iq level drops due to still sucking moms nips when you need dinner..

I guess the conclusion is that Metallica is this nice little "hobby" for these 4 middle aged men. Good excuse to leave the house every once and a while to get away from the average family life, and it pays pretty nicely as well. what other logical explanation could there possibly be? They have nothing to gain or win anymore. They've made the $$$, toured the world, played the stadiums and won the grammys and all that sh**.
"no, they haven't been the best at what they do since '89 im afraid....unless you mean making money, then i could agree with you."
Bands make money because it's a job. Oh, i forgot, it's not the tr00 thing to make money.
Times change, people change, Fags.
Oz, you're still cool.

Well no sh** its delayed. They just keep adding more and more f***ing european tours. I dont expect them to be back in the U.S. or a studio in time for the f***ing apocalypse. I'm so f***ing done with these a$$holes, the decline they have been in is just relentless. I'm not even gonna question the quality of the new album because as of now i dont give a sh**. I have officially lost faith in selloutica because the metal has been indeed long gone in this band.

I hope they delay it until december 2010, then James starts to sing about Teletubbies insted of tick, tick, tack.
Metallica is over and dead......maybe...ore..not..who knows???!? or MAYBE the album is so great that Master of puppets gonna sounds
like Ally McBeal´s Soundtrack?
will this new album turn into metallicas chinese democracy??? is axl rose involved somehow?? does anyone care about metallica anymore??? When are Beataliica releasing new material??? and the most important question of all...
has anyone seen my trainers? they aint where i left them last night, i mean come on, they cant just walk off on their own,, they are shoes for god sake..
:P

I think the delay was brought about because they listened to what they had prepared for this release and thought it was great. Rick Rubin comes along and tells them its crap - back to the old drawing board!!!
Seriously - the album is delayed for one main reason - they have no idea how to make a decent record anymore.

Listen to the ectasy of gold here: http://nl.youtube.com/watch?v=Zm7EeuWnc-8
If you haven't heard it, this certainly sounds like the old Metallica we love, so i'm hoping for the best in the future. That bob rock screwed metallica. Black was fine but the other ones are a disgrace. In the long run, the original sounds pay off better. I hope that new producer (rick rubin) brings back the old metallica. He said to the band that that he excpected them to be as ambitious as when they went in the studio to make the master of puppets album. And this one should sound like something between the ...and justice for all and Black-album.

suck my d*** branded your just mad cause your fall out boy cd isnt out yet... boo hoo ! Emo go cut yourself and cut yourself so deep that you die! cause your killing music!!! fag!!! lol!!! Go listen to your Lamb of b**** cd that sh** sucks!!! lol you call That Metal!!!! lol fags

how the fuk am i emo when i listen to slayer, pantera, black label society, paragon, acid bath, sepultura, testament, etc....by going off on your little tirade and spouting all this emo crap, you have just shown your moronic self...

YOU KNOW, ALL THESE DUMB ASSES CALING US DELAY-TALLICA HATERS EMOS IS REALLY FUNNY. WHAT THEY ARE NOT REALIZING IS THAT THEY ARE BEING VERY "EMO" ABOUT IT ALL. LETTING THEIR BAD "EMO" FEELINGS FORCE THEM TO CALL US NAMES LIKE LITTLE "EMO" KIDS. GETTING ALL MAD "EMO" STYLE, AND DEFENDING THEIR HAS BEEN "EMO-TALLICA" DOGFARTS!!

These delays aren't exactly old news for Metallica.
There was a five year gap between the Black album and Load.
There was a six year gap between Reload and St Anger.
It's barely been five years since St Anger was released.
Unlike the early days these guys are all married with kids now and have stacks of cash.
So why should they rush when they don't have to?
I predict that when this album finally gets released it will be the best metal release in a decade.
And do you think Metallica even give a f*** what their detractors think?
The mere fact that they are doing this album with Rubin tells you that they are doing this for their love of the music and for no other reason.
Metallica have nothing to prove as they've already been there and done it all.
I'm happy to wait a few more months for what I'm certain will be a classic Metallica album and probably their best in nearky two decades.

you are all posers. more than half of you arent even true metallica fans. just because you are used to a certain style of metallica doesnt mean you have to throw your butt around when you dont hear it your way. how bored would you get playing the same sound over and over again . i cant wait for the album to come out so i can give a big f*** YOU to everyone who doubted. go suck some ass!!!

I think Big Metal Stevie makes a good point. I'm still increadibly p***ed how Metallica treats their fans over in America by NOT PLAYING ANY f***ING SHOWS and how they keep adding european dates instead of finishing the album. No matter what, they do still seem somewhat passionate about their music and i guess thats what counts.....even if it is country music

Ew! man i wish i could whip your f***ing stupid a$$ posers! call me Emo? are you f***in retarted?????? i guess so ! lol you dont know who your talkin to lol!!!! hey when you call someone a homo tryin sayin it to their face! instead you have to be a little b**** and say it on the internet! lol fagot . And hey Metallica is one of the best bands in the world and will always be so get over it lol!!!! and why are you wastin your time tryin to piss people off for no reason??? to make yourself feel better??? you obviously have no life lol And like dude the bands you posted sayin to liked are like the most obvious metal bands you could think of . i mean thats like sayin i like Tool , everyone likes tool lol And hey if i ever seen any of you faget Metallica haters at a concert you know you would get knocked the f*** out . you are all posers if you hate metallica. cause they started real Metal

i cant believe all this sh*t talk bout metallica, all right load sucked reload was average and lets just not mention st anger but maybe they realise this and its been delayed because they need another black album to win the fans back. i dont agree that cliff dying cilled them coz he died early on in the career but i think jason leavin was the last straw for them. they need to get thier feet on the ground and realise there fans are leavin. the last thing metal need is another super band dissapearing after the death of dimebag(rip) lets just hope this album is a good one

I was never a big fan of Metallica, and James, lately, just doesn't have the vocals anymore. I hate to say it, but I think it is true. I heard some of the fairly recent songs, and he is really straining with his voice. I wish them the best of luck, but that is all I can say. The band has grown older, so don't expect them to sound like the 'young' metallica.
Anyway, I have been cracking up non-stop over these posts...and a doofus, like almetal101 continues to make a buffoon of himself....EMO....lol. f*** Emo! just the name makes me laugh. I also loved the comment about Metallica being the greastest country band alive...that was awesome, and I agree! ha ha
Branded, Red Chord and metalfan...you guys had me rolling on the floor with all the emo references....too fukkin funny. Work sucks, so you guys made it that much better. Thanks to everyone for entertaining me...lol. Lunch time - and stop spewing your EMO propaganda...allmetal101..and get a fukkin life. We all know you are an "emo" in disguise..of a metalhead... "bad" emo feelings....HA HA HA

- Too Fukkin funny! - badass. Alanmetalhead101 - is a dumbass..who secretly wants to start his own "emo-licious" band...or be the head of an "emo" record label... ha ha

Alanmetalhead101 is one tough dude [on the internet] - better watch out -his words will hurt you something fierce...sharp letters comin your way. What a f***in' moron - acting all Bad in an "emo" way....your "emo"tions are getting the best of you...Alan. haha

ok...f***ers....get a life...ur all idiots....the only reason im here is to look for a damn release date! obviously im one of the few people who like metallica left....stop gloating about the fact that u think they suck now.....what makes u think they give a F*** about you!!!

well, considering that you have extreme trouble spelling, have no idea what sentence structure is, and think you are gods gift to metal, means one thing: inbreeding does not work in your family..ok alanmetal, what is the name of you band? how many cds do you "true metalers" have out? what tour were you on last? when is your next cd comin out? what studio do you record in?

This is the problem with metal right now....we all fight each other trying to argue about what "real metal" is. We need to band together and start a war with the true enemies.....the emos and guidos of the world. It's like no one has any balls anymore, we need a leader with charisma, someone with....zazz. Metal is my f***ing religion, i would die for it to continue, and we are all diciples of its teachings. We are brothers in metal.
This just in : alanmetal has no band and sucks f***ing ass. And alan, rock band (the game) doesn't count as a real band. Actually, since you're a fag of 5 years old of mental age, you should just bang on your moms cooking pots, that would be more useful for your career. Ah you f***tard, I just talked to your mom, she was on the street working, and she told me that you where so f***ing dumb that you were hitting on your potty. sh** flying in your face and all. She told me you really liked it and then she was getting into the interesting parts but a customer showed up and she had to go. Do you think it was your dad ?
Actually my dear allanmetalfag, I never said I had a band unlike you, and if I did have a band, I would probably not go around saying we are the sh** unless we have a record deal, unlike you again. Now, you are pretty weak in insults so work on that a little bit, you're weak, just like your band.
And seriously, how can you write on your post that you are currently listening to Kid Rock ? That is just so pathetic even words can't describe it.
So about my dad, he doesn't live in California so he couldn't really be there and you want me to eat my mom's sh** ? Well it's better to do that than being born a sh**. That must stink...so will you tell me what's your myspace address so I can listen to your band ? You seemed so sure of yourself.
And Terminator, don't leave it up to his mom for the decision to go to California, she too busy being a whore and her pimp (Kid Rock I guess) doesn't let her make a decision.

why the f*** would my band have a myspace???? its called underground man lol we dont wanna be a mainstream band we dont care about labels or record deals , its about music not fame
he obviously thinks we are too stupid to realize he is lying and has no band...
Or that his band is a polka band. Polkallica they are called.
Terminator, I knew that you were b****ing Alan, I was to when I told you not to let her Mom take the decision. It might have sound as if I was attacking you but no, I was aiming at alandouchebag101. We have been allies for a long time and that will not change. LOL. Sorry about the little misunderstanding.

So selfish. its all about what you want, and not steeping back and appreciating artists for what they are. Why is Metallica always compared to what they were in 1987? Things cahnge. NOBODY is the same person at age 25 then they are at age 40. They are a great band, and always will be. Oh why waste time? this is an underground metal page. I'm sure most of you are semi-down syndromed skinny turds with long black dyed hair, elephant pants and a slipknot or hatebreed t-shirt..... Let me guess, you hate your fathers, too? Better get ready for your dreaded gym class, you ignorant pricks

well, i have short brown hair, kinda balding (which is good), dont own any elephant pants, or slipknot or hatebreed shirts.....

Man, this guy above will NEVER shut his mouth. Alanmetal - you listen to fukin' kid rock...not metal - man..sorry. You make me laugh so much...I have been having a great week just watching your moronic posts....BAD emo...go to your room!
lol
Grow up little man...it is obvious that Red Chord and Branded are more mature than you could ever wish to be.. Go back to your star trek toys...and go away like a good lil' emo b****..ha ha
He can't really reply to our posts, he just goes like, Hey you learned a new word or hey, I ain't wasting time no more but nothing really good. i guess you can't expect too much intelligence from a goat turd. Heck, the flies that hang over this piece of sh** are teaching him how to reply but they abandoned him. they found better turds around.

To Pat- *sigh*
Have you ever seen a mosh pit? It is definetely a place for skinny turds afraid of gym class. Outside of the army, metal concerts are the only places, IMO, that a man/woman can express themselves as true warriors. It is battlefield with the most kickass soundtrack ever known to man. I have blond hair btw not black, and not dyed; I'm told i look a little like Thor. The only band/music T-shirts I have are Jimi Hendrix, Pantera, and Tupac, because the are no longer in existence due to deaths, so I pay homage. I do kinda hate my dad though, so you pegged me right on the head with that one. Darn!!! Now I'm just a stereotype loser. Oh Well.
Now Playing: Affliction- "Retribution"

Now we all know what kind of person alanmetalhead101 is, white trash from the trailerpark who goes down to McDonalds to use their internet.
Probably has no teeth, those are the only type of people who listen to Kid Rock.
So you don't have myspace because you want to be underground?
Then how are you going to spread your message and music?
If you really are in a band, what is it called?

He didn't write this branded, that's what he's going to say, and then he'll start saying that he is underground and that underground is cool. His Polka band Polkallica is too good for the masses. Plus his garage is full right now so they can't practice, they are shooting a gay porno movie called alanmetalgivesmenheads101.
Hey alan, bring your friends on this site so we can see how dumb you inbred guys are...what ? You have no friends ? I am really shocked...

Hey Red b**** you are the biggest p***y ive ever seen and possibly the biggest sh** talker, i bet your not all that tough when you not on the computer? right... thats what i thought , have fun living in the mothers basement lol!!! Oh!! and Branded when you and your little butt buddy Red Chord wanna get your little asses kicked tell me cause i will glady do it!!! lol !!!!!
There you go, alanmetalgives ahead just went loco. Do you really think that you are insulting me ? Hahahahahaha. Seriously emo homo, play with your Band Polkallica and leave us alone. By the way where do YOU live, I mean I don't want an address but I guess you own a house because you imply that you do when you say that I live in my mothers basement. Well to bad for you I own a house I guess. And you know that when somebody just says he wants to beat you, they lost because they are out of arguments and they just go back to their primal state of being because the evolved state of being just doesn't work for them...ah little brains little balls.

LOL, Branded you are right on that. have you notice how alangivesmenheads insults are week and get weaker every time he shows up on this site ?
He is use to not think too much and I think that every time he tries to think, he get very weak. I am really concerned about his health right now and especially the fact that if he gets to tired he will be unable to perform with his awesome band Polkallica in the underground garage tour of RedNeck street.
And I show concern about the fact the he shows so much violence. That's all he can say, I'm gonna beat you up, I'm gonna kick your a$$ etc. But I guess a lifetime of abuse at school, home, Church and a hard life on the streets as a men whore will do that. Alan, we are concern by you, we genuinely care about you and we want to help. So I am going to give you an advice and I hope you will follow it for your sake : try to bend yourself so you can put you head in your ass, you'll feel just like home and it will rmeind you of when you were born. Good luck Alan, we will always be there for you.

This has to be the most retarded argument. If you don't like the new music and are not mature enough to leave normal comments, then just stay away from the news. You will avoid the Metallisheep, and you will quit embarrassing yourself. Yes; James, Lars, and Kirk are old and are not what they were in the 80s. Everyone understands that. If you want to listen to their new music, then that is fine. If you want to listen to their old music that is fine. If you don't want to hear them at all it is fine. Just quit acting like middle schoolers.
Thanks a lot Gandhi ! Just what we needed ! Another one out to save the world. Listen Mr. Peaceandlove, we are having fun here and that's the whole point of it. you think it's personal ? It's not but we are having a good time. It's been like that on this site for a very long time and I don't think it will change. so get your peace treaty and go to Irak, you could be more useful there.

well, no i wont quit. i enjoy makin the metallisheep mad by talkin smack on their geriatric heros...ok, i agree that metallica is not what they were. im not askin them to be. but they need to quit circle jerkin eachother and letting some fukin counselor get o their inner feelings...put those inner feelings into the music, and i bet it might actually come out good for a change. if they keep makin the music they do fine, no biggie. but they just need to come back to reality and see what they have to do to get back the fans that have flocked to other fields to graze on music.....

I will agree with red that this yelling match is something people do for the fun of it; I suppose after scanning through 170+ comments of the same crap that is on all the other Metallica articles, the small part of me which hopes Metallica will put out a decent album again just got a little annoyed. And branded, it is good to see that you have a rational argument behind all of this, which I agree with. Nice talking to you.

o dear lord....back to skunk-tallica...im sure they are scheduling these european dates as warm up dates to begin a massive worldwide tour......that way when the cd comes out they are already on tour supporting and itll only add to the stink-tallica news flow..HERES A NEWS FLASH.."""butt nuggettallica on tour now!! run out and baaa baaaa baaaa all night to your favorite songs as they invade every old folks home in the country looking for their final resting place...tickets on sale now.."""

But how can he possibly be Emo OR gay when he has a name as cool as alanmetalhead? It just doesn't make any sense to me. i personally think he must be the most intelligent person ever and definitely not a poser at ALL.
And I am most certaintly not just being a sarcastic a$$hole. I would NEVER do such a thing.

I agree with Old Skool thrash.....those comments were bullsh**. Hopefully Metallica's album will be worth the wait...Rick Rubin has a history of producing some of the greatest albums ever.....I may not be a fan of a few of the groups or people he's worked but he's turned around and launched a lot of careers....I believe he will be able to the same with Metallica...I'm not gonna cry about havin to wait....if it comes out it comes out if not then so what.....it's been pushed back a few months...it's not like it's been ten years...might feel like it because of St. Anger
Yeah he is the only one making sense about this. So what the album got delayed big deal don't b**** and wet yourselves about it..damn.

See guys, the reply I wrote for him was on the spot. He even used the lol thing again. I love this dude, he's really the most idiotic sh**head that ever was on this site, he even beats Jericho for those who remember that d***. Alangivesmenahead101, glad you exist, it makes everybody I know so much better. lol lol lol lol lol lol lol (note the the overuse of the lol thing is for alansucksmenass101)
Opeth ? Girl singer?lol ! oh sweet mother you are so out of it you stupid dumbsh**. lol! Opeth don't have a girl ! lol Just shows how much of a retard you are with metal music. lol! I think you really are going to get it from all the other guys now. lol!
When you don't know sh** about music you shut up alansuckshorseshead101. lol!
So how do you like my overuse of lol ? lol!
Yes alan, once again you prove how stupid you are we can see that you are Disturbed as well. Now go look up Opeth you dumbass and you'll see that there are no girls in it. the band you are looking is called OTEP d*** weed and if you want to say that OTEP sucks, then it will be the first time we agree on something

From the first comment to the last none of ye are making any sense, ya st.anger sucked bllox, but at the end of the day Tallica are the gods of thrash metal and thats all that counts, the new album will come and prob suck just as much as the load sh** and the st.anger crap, but at the end of the day they will rock the sh** out of you live and if you like thrash pick up there first four albums and if you dont well then fu*k off and stop writing stupid sh*t.

St Anger gave hope to us all that the boys have come out of the rut of load and re-load. While it wasnt gold, it was hard and fast. Rob gives new life to the weary old buggers and i reckon they will surprise all you knockers out there. Lets just wait till september before sending them to the old farts home and enjoy, indulge and remember what they have given to all of us over the past 27 yrs. METALLICA FOREVER !!
im feeling sorry for those that have come on the site recently and met alanmetalhead/disturbed.. its not good is it.
aaaaaaanyways.. metallica might as well tour russia, maybe they havnt heard st anger. maybe putin will accuse them of being capitalist pigdog americans and imprison them for crimes against lenin..
we can only hope.

I will concede to tht fact that sense Load they haven't done anything to impressive. But considering what they are capable of, by looking at their past, I will always give their next album a shot. lars is a major whiner and a d***, but James only fault is that he sobered up. He needs to be angry again.
Yeah he maybe meant OTEP but that shows that he doesn't know sh**. And I gave him a chance by saying check it out you're wrong and not only did he have no clues that he was wrong, he went further by saying all the band members were girls. So no forgiveness for this Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiid Rock a$$hole

oh sh**! i thought you said Otep lol!!!!!!!!!!!! my bad well otep sucks thats what i meant i wasnt reading what you said right my bad lol! thats fuked up ! St. Anger was an amazing Album and so was Load how the hell did they suck????????????????????????????????????????????
...before everyone flames you... out of curiosity how old are you alanmetalhead101?
P.S., rule 1 in any 101 metal course would be that St. Anger was one of the most terrible insults to metal heads ever created. Though it was done with a good heart.

"St. Anger was like one the heaviest cds ever! the drums were amazing !!! it was so freakin hard !"
Ok Metallica is my favorite band and I refuse to even look at the cover as it brings back painful memories of the worst drum sound I have ever heard, this aweful and unorganized guitar style and sound, Bob Rock's aweful bass playing, the mediocre song writing from gods who lost their divinity a long time ago, and last but not least the turn for the worst Vocals I have ever heard from a man I revered as one of the greatest frontmen on earth.

Dear cruor. Everything that was done on St Anger was done on purpose. The raw sound of the drums was what they wanted to do. They also agreed not to do a guitar solo though Kurt wanted to. They do not have to justify themselves to you or to any of these other complete and utter f uckwits on this page. I cant wait for the new record and i bet you all will be eating your pathetic words after hearing it. Anyway, isnt the best judgement of a rock band the way they play live? Because I saw them recently and they most definately still have it ! ps. Rob is an animal on that bass guitar.......good riddence jason.

Of course I know they did that piece of sh** on purpose that was their defense every since it received mountains of criticism since the release (not the initial release considering the billboard charting but what do they know?) but that doesn't mean I have to like the sound that they were going for. That doesn't mean that I have to approve the sound that my favorite band created. I also can't wait for the new album that they are working on as I have high hopes for something good. by the way who the hell is Kurt? Do you mean Kirk?
Good call to you also Cynic In the Nightside Eclipse is a great album also.

Alanmetal is still a dweeb...man this guy makes the world go around! You are such an assclown man...Alanmetal is from the tough state of Oklahoma...boomer sooner on my ass...huh??? lol - Thank you so much for making me laugh harder than I ever have. I love metal underground...everyone is so funny on here. I just find it hard to believe that this guy is still going on how about "metal" he is - and continues to defend himself[defensive?] when he is accused of being a poser or emo maricon! lol

Oh my God - post 218 is the sh1tt....hahahahaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaa
I nearly pixxed my pants reading it....he he he
I can't wait to get home so I can write more crap to bury Alan'wus'Metal101....
Alan's mirror thinks he is tough, and you know mirrors never lie...sarcasm....lol

Fukk ya bro - if you don't about Killing Joke, man, or Sick of It All, you don't know metal. It is cool that you admit your ignorance...which is refreshing. You are still a kid at 18 - I am 37 years old - so I have been around the block a few times. Grow some pubes - and get back to me. Also - it is utterly moronic to call someone out or threaten to beat them up from a keyboard...ha ha. You are just a natural, man, at making an a$$ of yourself - Alan"scary-emo"Metal101.

Ha ha - I hear ya. It was fun stomping a mud hole in his A$$, though. I had to throw out a Texas phrase, from a Texan - Stone Cold Steve Austin. Yeah it is clear that Alan has given up - I guess his mascara started to smear...so he had to go....LOL
Nah - seriously - I think the "kid" figured out he was being a jacka$$ and is trying to be cool with you guys now. I had a blast flamin' on him.

It all started like this....

Don't worry - at least you like metal, so you are ok in my book.
OK - lol - Sooner boy

I think he was actually trying to kiss your a$$ near the end - because as you said - he was out of ammunition...After you made him look like a dork - about the Opeth reference - that the band has a female singer...he started trying to act cool with you. Go back and look - what a goof he was...but an entertaining little "emo" critter

or write songs for Trivium..LOL

Thank you for the spelling correction, brandedcfh420. However, here (correctly spelled!) in Australia, we whinge, where in America, you whine. They’re two different words with the same meaning. You don’t understand what “I just spat the dummy” means. This is an Australian saying, if you take it literally, it means I just spat the dummy out of my mouth. Where, what it really means in context, is that I just whinged (whined if you wish to correct me) about something, or went on a tirade. Just like a baby does when they spit out their dummy! And when I asked for all you girls to help me find it (the dummy); think about what a baby does when you put a dummy back in its mouth. Generally it will shut the f**k up!!

well, before you come on here and call a bunch of people pricks, learn to spell an easy word like "NEW"....the "NEW" album will suck....you put "knew", meaning you "knew" something sucked, as in past tense..!!
What the f*** do you want Richard, you don't half of the story with Alan and so far you are his only supporter because he was the one starting a war with EVERYBODY on this site. I mean, it's alright to have an opinion but this one is out of line really.

Listening to Sworn Enemy : Talk is Cheap

LMFAO, you know there was a time when I thought I was on the "bad side" here, and bashing Red_Chord with a lot of reasons of him being a zoophile, pedophile, midget humper happened. But now I'm starting to realize there is no need to regret humiliating the saddest gathering in the Heavy Metal community.
Dream Theater is far from as good as they were 3 years ago, do you see Jericho bashing them no. Iron Maiden sucks balls now, but do you see me bashing them and degrading them no. Same goes for Metallica, you sorry sacks of sh**s aren't even metal enough to "acknowledge" that Metallica "sucks" now.
And you're all further in a very hilarious and comedic way showing of your "Heavy Metaaaaaal tastes" by doing this little trend "Now playing-blah blah", ROFLMAO. That some really funny sh** guys keep it up. Metallica is the gateway to the Metal world, and you false p***y metalheads bashing Metallica further shows your uncanny penchant for being a poseur.
I have been reading the comments, I had various thoughts of Alanmetalhead. But of course, since he is defending metallica I will indeed waste no time to have him be the first one man into my "alliance" here in Metal Underground.
That's right, I'm taking over. I should call this faction...the New Metal Order. Just like the one I am currently part of in Youtube.

suck my balls! im my own worst enemy , i "Know" im cool! retard i dont care what you guys "Think" because you guys have no life , you just stay on here all day sayin stupid sh**! Oh and Branded last time i checked this isnt English ! dumbass!!! lol!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well alan, if its not english, then what the hell are you typing? chinese? russian? what you are typing is a feable attempt at english. guess you inbreds from oklahoma just are all illiterate and cant spell properly..its never good when a sister and brother mate, you are the end result!!

oldschool metallica fan-----if they have sucked since before and justice, then why do u have their name in ur screen name? what an idiot. and to wish death on anyone --especially based on something as trivial as their music. what a loser. get a life. if u dont like them then listen to garth brooks u fake poser. metallica has evolved is all. they r in their 40's now. cant expect them to still be full of angst and rage. they sell out everywhere they play. if they re irrelevant, why is everyone anticipating their new album. how many albums has your band sold? how many tours of yours has sold out. get a grip--u r the irrelevant one.

I think the BLACK album and LOAD were their best, but dudes dig their older stuff, I personally can't understand why.
as far as their new album is concerned...I think it will be more of the same old formula repeating itself which will equal a disappointing album!

metallica is not gonna repeat there self because that would be stupid , why make two of the same cds??
well, "there" is spelled "their" to begin with (god bless oklahoma education)!!! secondly, it seems they have made the same cd over and over, 1 SH1TTY ONE AFTER ANOTHER...PILE UPON PILE OF SH1T..
jester in post 310 shows a good point, Metallica never sold out they simply started writing music they wanted to, which happened to be hard rock not thrash. St. Anger was bad and they admit that.
But bottom line to me is man, I can't wait to hear their new stuff and I'll be lining up to buy it. The thing is I really owe Metallica thousands of dollars, because that's how much their old albums mean to me. But thankfully I can get them for $25 NZ down at almost any music store. They don't owe you anything bar a refund on St. Anger - but wouldn't you pay double for Master Of Puppets? Case closed.

how the fuk you figure that 1?? if the article says its been DELAYED AGAIN, how are you figuring that it isnt delayed?? AND HE CALLS US RETARDED!!!
Well Kalis it's alright to be lazy, there is nothing like lounging on the couch, flipping through the tv channels in search of mindless entertainment, eating chips, drinking beer, white t-shirt stained with grease, in your underwear...ah well ! you get the point.
Uh... not sure that's really my idea of being lazy. Atleast on a personal level anyway. *LOL*
TIMMAY! (atleast from your post's I get the image of South Park's Timmy) If I gave you the list of things I have accomplished and been through you would die and old man!

Sources from Metallica's record label reportedly told Stereo Warning that the release of the band's new album has once again been pushed back. The up-coming follow-up to St. Anger now apparently won't be available until September this year. Lars Ulrich made the first claim that it would see light in February, but then the release date changed to April. That, too, changed when the band was still in the studio months later. The last time Metallica took so long in the studio resulted in the "Black Album."
-- Hey d***heads-- No one told Stereo Warning anything. This thread is a waste of time.
A representative for METALLICA's management has responded to a report on StereoWarning.com which claimed that "sources from the band's record label" have said that the group's new album has "been delayed again" to a September release. The representative told The Pulse of Radio that the disc has not been "delayed" since there "has never been an actual release date." As for when the record was likely to surface, the representative said, "It will be out when it's ready."

well, lets look at the article again shall we:
Lars Ulrich made the first claim that it would see light in February, but then the release date changed to April. That, too, changed when the band was still in the studio months later.
hhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmm, looks like delays to me. if there is no actual release date then what the fuk does it mean when Lars C0ckmaster says Feb, then its changed to April. how are we wasting our time??!! the only people wasting their time are the metalli-sheep waiting for a huge turd to be released upon the sheeple. why do you metalli-slaves have to come on here and think we (metalli-haters) are the retards?? we are only saying what is the truth: metallica and the little metalli-assmasters are the stupidest people on the planet. we realize that poop-tallica are taking their time because they are older. we realize they are no longer as fast with their music as they were in the 80s (james and his cocaine addiction helped that "speed"), we realize they will never put out another M.O.P. or R.T.L, so we just make fun of you metalli-fags in your dedication to old geraitric homos. if the band needs a "feelings" counselor to help them with their feelings then what the fuk are they in the music business for??!! i thought music was all about feelings!! if they would take all the hatred, anger, and ill feelings for eachother and put into their music, then im sure another excellent album will be the result. but since they cry to the counselor and just b**** at eachother about their "feelings", it only means the end is fast approaching!! and you metalli-fags will be the ones crying in the end not us. WE WILL CELEBRATE IT!!

Red_Chord, do you long for the day when you are no longer my butt of everyones jokes, and my own personal gimp b****. You sit your a$$ in a bundle of aluminiun wrap with a pile of your own feces on it. b**** do you even know who your father is? Your mom keeps a scapbook on 20 guys.And every year you send a Happy Father's Day card to one of them along with a request to see them.You haven't gotten a f***ing reply back yet other than "b**** get lost".
There's still slim hope that on your next birthday the last one might reply and actually come to see you.But don't get your hopes up, you circus midget.
OK, this thread has become a big clusterf***, but I wanted to warn many of you against the personal attacks. Please lay off them. King Jericho in particular - I've seen a number of your comments cross the line in other threads. Regardless of who started it, this is your warning. The ones you posted that got caught by the moderation queue/spam filter will not be posted. Just lay off the personal attacks or I'll be forced to delete all of your comments.
To the rest of you - don't get sucked into personal attacks or you may find yourself banned and comments deleted as well. If you actually value Metalunderground.com and your time here, don't run that risk.
I value our readers and the sincere commentary on the site, but the off-topic banter and personal attacks are counter productive to fostering a community. So once again, please stay on topic and stop the personal attacks. Thanks! \m/

I'm a recent MetallicA fan, I've loved pretty much every one of their songs I've listened to. I'll also risk saying I like the "Load" and "ReLoad" albums almost as much as their older things, but in a different way. I'm slightly disappointed about the delay in their upcoming album and I have my fingers crossed that it's not St. Anger all over again. Would someone care to explain to me why there's so many haters on this thread, is it that bad that Metallica's new album has been delayed by a year or two?
Good post NED, basically the reason there is so much animosity towards Metallica is they had previously made some bad choices which fans took as a money grabbing (Napster), and fans feel constantly disappointed by recent releases in a band that once released 5 highly acclaimed albums back to back.
Now Playing: Demons & Wizards - "Seize The Day"

Surely though, if someone liked the band so very much before they made these "bad choices", they'd stick with the band simply because of their loyalty to it? Otherwise, if they did not approve of the way things turned out, why not leave Metallica behind? This reminds me of the bickering between fans of Metallica's Dave Mustaine days and their opposition. Sorry to bring the Mustaine subject and I hope it doesn't turn into another argument but it's just too similar. Anyway, the bottom line in this post is, if you care for the new album, why not endure a bit more without complaints, and if you don't care enough to wait another few months for the new album, surely there's no reason to post on this.

Well guys, I'll tell you one thing I *am* happy about: Metallica are playing in Bulgaria this year :) So are KISS, I haven't listened to many of their songs and I certainly didn't know they were still together. Anyway, to make this relevant to the thread, has anyone heard any possible names for Metallica's upcoming album?

I came to MU with the intention of interacting with my fellow metal heads. However, as they saw that My metal knowledge and intellect far surpasses them the decided to retaliate in the form of "Jealousy", so I just had to defend myself. I will lay off the attacks if they lay off my d*** it all I am saying. I just want to talk about Heavy metal.

haha, yeah right Queen jericho. you never saw us as "fellow", you falsely saw us as inferior.
"My metal knowledge and intellect far surpasses them they decided to retaliate in the form of Jealousy"
you have higher intellect?!?!?! Hell no, not even if you were in a group of special kids. we are not jealous of you, you are jeaous of us, that is the reason why you try to be superior, retard.
Dale, holy sh*t do you know any other words other than "f*ckhead"?? if you are in class with your friend then why did you say dakota was 400 miles away?? maybe if you retyped post 369 so we all could better understand you, i have no idea what the f*ck you were trying to say there anyways. whyd you get so f*cking p*ssed and insulted, i think its true then from the way you reacted. stop talking to yourself.
METALLICA SEEMS TO BE MUCH MORE INTERESTED IN PLAYING FESTIVALS THAN GETTING THERE NEW DISC OUT. THEN HEARING THAT THE FIRST SINGLE WOULD BE RELEASED IN A VIDEO GAME ISN'T ALL THAT GREAT TO HEAR EITHER. LIKE MANY OF YOU I JUST WANNA HEAR THE DAMN THING!! WE ALL ALSO SHOULD'N'T PUT TOO MUCH EMPHASIS ON BASHING THE BAND TOO MUCH. IT'S APPARENT THEY'RE PLAYING SOME SORT GAME WITH US ALL. VIDEOGAMES, APRIL FOOLS, AND NOW SEPTEMEBER??? METALLICA NEEDS TO REMEMBER THE OLD USA....IT WAS THE USA THAT TOOK THEM FROM AN OPENER TO A HEADLINER. STOP PLAYING AROUND AND PUT THE DANG CD OUT....THATS ALL I WANT.

Ok now LM77 i was trying to explain to you guy's that i am not talking to my self. i didn't mean to do that. and also there is a lot's of things that i can say to you. and also there is 3 Dakota's. there is Dakota smart there is Dakota faster and there is Dakota foster. OK now. and also you insulted me first. LM77.

...On another note, I'd also like to ask whether there is a name for Metallica's single on that game, I read about it in the Wikipedia site on their new album but they haven't mentioned any names apart from Lars's mock titles(Glass Cow, 19, 20, etc). Oh and also, CAPS RULE(thumbs up to VO)!!!

dale it was kallah who told you to stop talking to yourself first and you didnt take it very personally. and notice how lightly i said it. i didnt say "stop talking to your f*ckin imaginary friends you dumbass". so i think you were the one being aggresive and all that first.
and 3 dakotas?? now im really confused, but whatever.
"we are not jealous of you, you are jeaous of us, that is the reason why you try to be superior, retard."
Hahaha! Owned.
"i am in new castle co that is 400 milie's away for hey"
Wait... If you both use the same ip... Does that mean that there is a 400 miles underground cable that relies your computer with your friend's computer?
Heck, your posts are harder to read than chinese, just shut the f*ck up already.

goddam u ppl have no loyalty to a band. They release 1 average album which was, admittedly not as good as thier others, but its still half decent. St. Angers a great song. What happened to metallicas most devoted and loyal motherf***ers in the world, Its only one album guys, When they finally do release the new one u guys will change your tune pretty quickly. YOU GUYS ARE THE f***ING SHEEP
Yes it is! I love all things strawberrie! Choclate makes almost anything good! My grandma used to grow strawberries and would have me go pick them for her... I would eat like half of them or more and she cought on to me and would not ask me to do it anymore. Hehehe! My Dad would lay in the strawberry fields in Ca and eat them all night long. I probably got my strawberry love from him. I got his sence of houmor too that will most likely get me into big trouble one day... it already has.
Now playing- The voices in my head telling me to go on a crusade to comit strawberry genicide!

ah ha....obviouosly strawberries are a weakness..?
The place is or was.. located along the Minnesota/Iowa border, damn near straight south of the Twin Cities ( Minneapolis/St Paul )... its pretty cool.....mom made alot of jellies and jams... mmmmmmm
Damn, I bet its been 20+ years since I was there....in all honesty I'm not even positive its still open...???
Hm... I will have to do more research on it. My grandma makes fresh fruit jelly's and fudge every years for xmas gift's. She is amazeing it it too! She has been doing them for decades now! Yes, strawberries are a definate weakness and so is ice cream... mix the two and I am a happy woman. I heard not too long ago that those who ate strawberries back in the old world day's were considered to be wicked and burned at the stake as witches. I would have been dead as a baby! I have not fully looked into it, but it seems to fit way things were back then.
Ned, it's never too late to get us back on topic.... What's on your mind about it?

man f*** all you guys your just a whole bunch of c*** suckin immature b****ass p***ies...don't get mad at the greatest f***in metal band ever to f***in roam the earth yall lil b****es prolly just sit at home listening to gay a$$ bands like slipknot,slayer,him,and all that wannabee metal so f*** yall hatin mother f***ers yall can go suck another c*** after yall stop suckin your own hahaha..dumbass b****es...METALLICA f***IN RULES FOR LIFE.

metallica kicks ass, even though st. anger sucks big d***. but how can someone like SEXYCOCKSUCKER07 bash a band like slayer, calling it wannabee metal. your opinion is clearly worthless to people who like bands like metallica, slayer, pantera, and testament. if you don't think slayer has been better than metallica for the last 15 f***in' years, then i think your borderline mentally handicapped. while hetfield was in rehab like a p***y, slayer was still f***in' thrashin'. i can't wait to here the new 'tallica, but you can't put down slayer, wannabee metal my ass. slayer is the best metal band going today. f*** YOU!!
*LOL* It's o.k . You can just post the link here so everyone can read the article.
Just saw Halloween by Rob Zombie..... WOW! Very intense. There was a couple of details that where messed up, but over all a very decent flick I think. One does wonder about the mind of a complete phyco pathinc killer and in the case of Mike Myers if there is a way to fix the problem. I have read a few book's on the mind of violent people and think that it really does start with the parent's. Alot of people think that it is simply being bullied around by peer's, but think it goes alot deeper. I think a myspace blog is in order tommrow on this subject and I will go alot deeper into my thought's.

whats shakin....besides Micheal J Fox..?
Hello there Kalis_wrath... I agree..Rob Zombies Halloween was pretty decent.. ( from someone who seen the original in the same decade as it came out..)
I thought it was done quite well... an excellent idea giving the background or beginnings of Micheal Meyers... I liked it...!!
As for views on serial killers and such...I too, have a researched the subject a bit.. and I agree entirely that one of the root causes of this behavior begins with the parents and the childs surroundings and so on....
Of course, this isnt the place to discuss serial killers and weirdos... we're here to talk about Metallica.... now....at least I mentioned it..... just like I've mentioned how cool it was to see them on the Master of Puppets tour in '86.....only a matter of weeks before Cliffs tragic demise... \m/
Theodore Nugent - One Woman
LM77, May 22nd???
Godlike, that must have been awesome to see Metallica when they were a great band! Cliff's demise was one of metal's greatest tragic moment's indeed! I think that when he died so did Metallica.
As far as the Mike Myers deal goes do see why the kid went nut's! I thought my childhood sucked until I heard of how he was raised. The thing that is unclear to me is why he went to kill his little sister even after all those years and not when he had a clear chance to do so when she was a baby? Maybe that was the line even he could not cross? I also wonder how his mother put up with that man like she did? The entire thing does leave one with questions galore! I know that alot of people don't like that Rob uses the same people in his movie's, but think that they all just work so well together and think it is a great thing! It's not like they suck and the movie goes to sh**!

oh.. no worries ma'am... this is a common thing.. in fact, it usually happens in the fall...so Ive actually been eagerly looking forward to it...going outside in the winter sucks...Ive been spending winters off work for almost 15 years..
Yes, I like my job...or the type of work I do that is...and without going into too many details....lets just say there are alot better options out there... its only a temp. layoff which means anywhere between 2 weeks to 3 months...
I had already planned to take another job anyway...been kinda waiting for the right moment... and obviously spring is going to be the right time..!!!
So, Washington state it is..?? and the birthplace of Jimi no doubt...!! thats always a bonus..!!
Black Sabbath - Country Girl
Godlike, so long as you are o.k with it then that's what matters. :)
LM77, that is gross man! My fat, stinky, low life compulsive liar of a coworker James probably has millions in his stomach! *shudders* Indy fan hu? My partent's will be watching I am sure. My Mum has a racer's licence and my Daddy-o is a trials motorcycle rider.

haha post 427, i saw a video on youtube about worms in someones stomach and it was nasty as hell. just imagine a community of little yellow worms crawling all over inside and in the lining of your stomach, coming out of lil holes and tunnels theyve dug into you. i hope i dont have any.*shudders*
Fact: If you act like an a$$hole and you will get your a$$ kicked.

my schools hockey team played against some other school and one of the players from the other team started a fight.
he injured one of our players and swung his hockey stick at this one guy and misses. so this guy gets f*ckin p*ssed and headlocks the b*tch, yanks off his helmet and just starts pounding him with his fist. he was beating him for a minute before the ref tackled them, and he was still pounding him while falling.
the guys face was literally smashed in, he had a broken nose and a black eye and his nose looked like a huge dent. there was blood everywhere, but the guy deserved it. haha

After reading most of these posts, it's clear that a great many of you either didn't finish school or just didn't pay attention while you were there. I'm not talking college or anything, just basic schooling where you learn what grammar is and how to spell words correctly and form sentences that make sense. Now, having said that, it's hard to take anyone's opinion seriously when you can barely discern what they are trying. When you can't think of a word, just use an expletive! Works great, and makes you look intelligent. The reality is, Metallica is one of the most successful bands in modern history, having created a lot of brilliant songs. They are all more talented at what they do than most of us could ever hope to be. Want proof? They are famous, you are not. The reality is, they will release the album when it is ready. The reality is, it will sell. Why? Because they are Metallica! Everyone is a critic; it's easy to be one. While we all wait for the new album, my suggestion is that most of you pick up a course in Basic English and learn how to form you ideas into cogent sentences. This way, when the album does come out, you will be able to express your hate and anger so that other people can actually understand what you are saying. You may even be able to persuade someone to join you in your opinions if you get good enough at it. Until then, it's probably best not to post inept comments. This is just some helpful advice that I am sure none of you will take.

That's lovely Anon, thanks for expressing your view on Metallica's upcoming album, as well as your hate for most of the people in here. I'm sure it'll mean a hearty welcome from those you criticise, as well as everyone else. What a brilliant way to make friends!
Anyway, I'm back guys :). Bought a new guitar yesterday, Ibanez GAX30-TR. It's so sweet, transparent red with a brilliant sound! I think that's not bad for my first electric, considering I know very little about the technical side of guitars. I'm itching to get some of those new Metallica tunes on the go, once the album comes out.
Anon, did you take a course in sh**allica's arse...? You did after all kiss it well enough... Furthermore, if you are so well educated you know that art is subjective and this means that if I do not like it then I have full rights to voice my opinion. If you don't agree you could say that you think I am wrong and point out that you think sh**allica is a good band because you like their art. You then don't care what I think because you also know that art is subjective and that opinions differ! I don't care how many albums sh**allica has sold because that just means that alot of the herd likes their crap music! Britney Spears sells alot more albums, but that does not mean I have to like her music or that she even has an ounce of talent in MY opinion. NO!

A lot of the herd likes METallica because they make awsome tunes. Theyve only made one bad cd. The fact that the last album was balls makes me look forward to the new one even more because theyre gonna really pull their fingers out for this one! Im optomistic. If its late its late. Lets critisize it wants weve actually heard it. I think its can only be better th an st anger, and it should be pretty interesting hearing what it sounds like. Shotgun some thrash!!!!!!!

You guys are pretty lame. Seriously, you sound like Metallica has personally insulted you. Get a grip, you p***ies - you're only making yourselves look worse. Metallica don't owe you anything.
Anyway, they have stated this album has been inspired by their early works, and they've gotten rid of the 'blues' influences... so try to be a little optimistic, eh? If the album still sucks, move on.
That said, I admit I will be very disappointed if the album is not metal.

I NEVER SAID THEY OWED A DAMN THING!! I SAID FOR THEM TO SHUT THE FUK UP AND DELIVER TO THEIR LITTLE BRAIN-DEAD SHEEPLE!! ALL THEY ARE DOING IS WASTING TIME AND THE METALLI-SHEEP'S PAITENCE....I, FOR ONE, WILL NOT BUY THE CD. I JUST ENJOY WATCHING ALL THIS DRAMA (THIS THREAD HERE) UNFOLD, AND SMACKTALK THE STUPID PEOPLE.

branded, I'm pretty sure the comment wasn't addressed to just you. As for your love of "smacktalking the stupid people", this is hardly the place for it. If you want to insult someone, go up to their face and do it. If you won't buy the CD, why are you here? There's hundreds of other threads on this site, many of them about bands or albums you don't like.... unless Metallica's the only metal band you hate. Besides, whose time are they wasting? I think you're referring to Metallica's own time. By posting rubbish you cannot make them stop wasting that time, and you also don't know the exact reasons for the album being delayed: another pointless side of your posts. If they're wasting the time of those you refer to as "metalli-sheep", surely you don't consider yourself one of them? Obviously you think you're way above listening to Metallica, and must therefore not care about the people who like and listen to them. Why bother?
To point out something else, making up words doesn't work. "Metalli-sheep" and "sheeple" just doesn't fir. Surely someone as pedantic about spelling and grammar as yourself wouldn't stoop so low. If you don't know what to do, find another expression in a dictionary.
On a side note, CAPS RULE@@@@@@@I'M GETTING ATTENTION@@@
Hey Ned, pretty interesting what you are saying. The only problem if you don't mind me saying so is that this argument has been used over and over again and over again and obviously no one will just go : oh ! He's right, i will not say how much I dislike this band and move on. You're the one who is pointless here and of course I was being sarcastic about the iinteresting part. I don't give a sh**, branded doesn't give a sh**, you don't even give a sh**. You like metallicrap ? Good for you ! And stay awake, Metallicrap will be on tour soon in your town with Linking Park...

Red_Chord, this was not addressed to you. Although I value your opinion and mine differs from it, I won't comment on what you just posted. I'm sure that branded can post for himself. Also, the fact that you cannot move on from this state just shows how bound all of you are to Metallica- whether it be by love or hate. If you can't sustain these feelings, pour them out towards the band itself, and not the people posting on this thread. If you hate Metallica, fine. You don't have to hurl crap at the people who do like them, it just makes you look like an idiot. An interpretation of your behaviour sounds like "If I can't like Metallica, neither can you because I'm right and you're wrong!" Well, that's how you see things but you're not the only thinking person in this world. Also, excuse me if I didn't understand the Linkin Park comment. I would appreciate it if you explained it to me in as civil a manner as you can.

The last decent album Metallica released was Ride The Lightning I don't think there new album is going to be any good judging by the direction they took on there last. Bring on the delays plus they might be scared as Meshuggah release there new album soon and that will annihilate them.

well, yes it was directed at me and all the other metallica haters..i trully do not care what you think so your post doe not affect me in one bit...i choose to come on this thread and make fun of the metalli-sheep..who cares if you do not like it, I DO NOT!!...

Branded, I'm not trying to make fun of you or affect you, all I'm curious about is why take the time to make fun of people online, and why call them "metallisheep" and things like that. Also, what's behind all that? Why do you hate Metallica fans? Surely there must be a good reason behind all the abuse you're spouting all over the place?

well, ned, i think the metalli-sheep are like the guns and roses fans...wishing for their so called metal-gods to make a comeback....neither metallica or g-n-r will ever make a successfull comeback...o sure, metallica will sell-out stadiums and all, but look at what each band has done to the metal world as of lately...both have delayed cds numerous times, continued to spout off stupid crap, and it makes the metallisheep just start to spank off to the stupidest news....having the same damn article posted over, and over, over, and over, again just makes people want to puke until they have no inkling of respect for metallica anymore...it is something that poop-tallica has brought on themselves...!!

I think I see what you mean, but why can't you tolerate people who like Metallica's later music? Even though critics may spit on it and what not, I for one loved "Load" and "ReLoad". "St. Anger" wasn't my cup of tea, but the former two have songs I found really catchy. It might not have contributed a whole lot to the metal culture, but do you only see it as a downfall and degradation of the band?
Look at it this way: you do something really well, and you do it for ages. The results are excellent but one day you grow bored of that activity, whatever it is. Wouldn't you decide to try out something new, bring a bit of a change to your life? Even if you're not half as good at it as you were at the first thing, surely you're still growing, in a different way though it may be. Hopefully that makes sense. All I'm trying to say really is that there might be a bright side to it, Metallica might have grown bored of the bad stuff and maybe, just maybe Rick Rubin was accurate in his description of their future album. Do you consider this plausible at all, or have you lost hope in Metallica forever?
NED-- i understand that logic, but because metallica took such a sharp turn out of metal and in the world of rock in such a short timespan sent the message of "f*** you" to the original core of fans. it was not so much a betrayal or a bad thing that the members of metallica wanted (or perhaps were brainwashed into by bob rock) to go in a different musical direction, it was that they drug the moniker with them. personally, i think that if they wanted to take that durastic of change musically, they should have retired "Metallica" and gone under a different moniker or done load/reload/st. anger as a side project.
and for the record i like the black album, i like load, not so much a fan of reload, despise st. anger.

Terminator, that's quite a good point. Perhaps there's sense when people say "Metallica died with 'Load'", but only in a sense that they changed. My point of view is that they've grown- perhaps it would be dangerous to call this growth beyond metal, but certainly in a different direction from it. However, it keeps nagging me that they might have exhausted their creativity and their gift. Kirk is still a good guitarist, Robert Trujilo certainly still has the technique. Lars and James are getting old but I still sense they have something working inside them- perhaps not virtue but certainly there's something. Perhaps the metal part of the band has been exhausted? After all, they are a huge landmark in the history of metal... I don't think I know of a band that has achieved such greatness and gone out in fashion afterwards- the only one that comes to mind is Queen, but the only reason for that was that Freddy died and they didn't have a chance to end their career in style. I think Metallica has gone no lower than any other famous band by changing so radically; I guess it also has to do with what stage of life the members are at... I'll stop blabbing now, better get some sleep. Feel free to criticise this post, however note I am sleep-typing(does that even exist?).

ned and terminator both make fair comments i'd say. I personally am looking forward the new stuff, but part of me kind of thinks that although I want to here them do some thrash again, it is almost like metallica saying "look at us.. we're still cool!! We can still write metal!!" Although I dont like load and reload as much as the older sh**, I still think think that its good music, and they where writing something that was more befitting of their advancement in age/maturity. Theres mothing wrong with aging with dignity. My music taste has changed a fair bit over the years, and im only 22. I dont know what I'll feel like listening to or jamming to in 10 years time, but I'm not just gonna shut my mind to other styles of metal or rock just because some kids say I'm not cool anymore.

i agree 100%. they changed their music, i didnt care (every band changes something up just a bit). they changed their looks, so what (everyone does). they went into different ventures outside of the music world, (no biggie). they began an assault upon their legions of fans about something that someone in their inner circle is responsible for!!! (ended my respect for them on the spot)
now they seem to spew out little "loads" of useless news to keep the metalli-sheep spanking off while waiting for the next huge dissappointment of a cd!!!

I agree with the three of you, and now I think I've gained a bit more insight into what you're trying to say, branded. Don't Metallica have a video on youtube about how they don't care whether their old fans support them or not? I think I watched something like that. I think I understand why you would feel personally offended by things like that, especially if you had been a fan of the band for a long time before this happened. What is it exactly you saw or heard that brought down your respect for Metallica?

the last straw was when they sued a lip-stick company who used then name metallica for one of their colors..and then lars limpd1ck went after them..WHAT MILLIONS FAIL TO REALIZE IS THAT LARS STOLE THE NAME METALLICA TO BEGIN WITH!!! SOMEONE ELSE WAS GOING TO USE THAT NAME FOR A METAL MAGAZINE, AND SINCE IT WAS NOT PATENTED, LARS f***ED THAT GUY OVER AND STOLE THE NAME....NOW LOOK AT WHAT THEY DO TO PEOPLE....PATHETIC, PILES OF DOGSH1T!!! so, if you want to support theives, (lars and company) go ahead. it only shows the hypocrisy of saying that illegal downloading is theivery, while they are riding high on what was stolen in the 1st place!!!!!!!
i trully do not care what people here think of me. i am only expressing my opinions, just as they are as well. but the metalli-sheep only make themselves look even more like trendy sheep by continuing to support these has been b1tch theives. WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!!!!

Surely you must realize that stealing is a big part of the music industry. Although people prefer to call it "adaptation" and "alteration", the reality is that bands steal things from each other and put them into their own music without acknowledging the original version. The way I see it, it has all happened for the better, because these things did not happen, Metallica would not amount to what they once became, and we probably wouldn't have the Master of Puppets, Orion, One, And Justice for all and all the great music they made. Granted, we wouldn't have St. Anger and the music not everyone likes as much, but I think that more good than bad has come out of it. As for the band suing the lipstick company and Napster etc, I cannot support what they did... Perhaps they had a good reason, perhaps they didn't. I guess we won't find out, but they did what seemed to them the right thing to do. Sadly, I don't think that being angry over what's happened will change anything. I support everything Metallica stand for musically, but I don't know much about the members' personal lives and I choose not to prejudice them as people.

Mr. Noogieburger wants everyone to shut the f*** up about Metallica. No one cares what any of you think. Mr. Noogieburger cannot understand why you all are STILL b****in about sh** that happened 10, 15, 20 years ago. MOVE THE f*** ON. Mr. Noogieburger often wonders if you all are b****ing simply because Metallica are famous and you are all a bunch of nobodys that no one gives a flying f*** about.
Hey godlike, you got any more skunk on ya???

Branded, I don't think I'm contradicting myself. To your first post my reply is yes, it's ok to steal but only music. Not names, money or anything else you might think of. Also, no- not as long as it's Metallica. Any band can "adapt" Metallica's music and Metallica can adapt anyone else's music and I think that's ok because that's what pretty much everyone does. Granted, it'd be amazing if everyone came up with their own music, but if that was a condition there wouldn't even be a quarter of the bands there is today. To your second post, you have misquoted me because later on in the sentence I say I don't support Metallica's members as people because I don't have enough knowledge to take a stance for or against them. Saying I support what they stand for musically is just a long-winded way of saying I love their music. I don't agree with them plundering various companies' money because they feel like they have been robbed themselves, but I don't mind listening to a band whose music has bits of other musicians' genius in it. Now I think about it, I should really call that an "influence", because at the end of the day that's what it is isn't it? Anyway, the only thing I mind is Metallica's petty squabbles for money, but that's in the past now. I can't change much of what happened but it was their choice, not mine. I apologise if my previous post wasn't making that clear.
Mr. Noogleburger, I appreciate your attempt at making a fool out of yourself- it was excellent. As you can see(or perhaps you're illiterate, intelligent people tend to refer to themselves in the first person), the majority of people who post are here to express their views and opinions about the article. Whether you like it or not, this is a forum thread and that is its purpose. If you question the point of this thread, don't post in it yourself. Not everyone here hates Metallica, but I'm quite sure the opposite applies to you. Hopefully you will understand this when you read it.
Apologies for the excessively long post.

Mr. Noogieburger thanks you NED. Just to let you know, Mr. Noogieburger realizes that he has been here probably alot longer than you have. Mr. Noogieburger is happy to see that yet ANOTHER metalunderground poster feels the need to get all up his own a$$ and preachy in his posts.

I'm glad but hardly surprised to learn you've been here longer than me, since this is my first week here as a poster. I'd like to know what I seem to be preaching, and also you might realize that there are girls posting here too(I'm hinting at the gender you've prematurely classified me as, in case you didn't notice).

,,,And godlike, thanks for the advice. I'd rather voice my own opinion than lick someone's shoes. Besides, mr. Noogieburger, obviously you don't understand that I for one am not "b****ing" about Metallica because, if you read the last few posts you'd find out I am trying to understand why others are doing it. Also, I'd tather you stopped referring to yourself in the third person, unless you really have to. All it does is create the impression that you're being a clown.

well NED.... if your new to the site.... I shall welcome you with a mighty... \m/...
I would also like to thank you for clarifying the whole gender thing... Not that it really makes a difference...but it's nice to know that there are ladies among us metalheads... \m/
Megadeth - Addicted to Chaos

I meant in my posts.. I'm not here to argue... I just enjoy gettin stoned and talkin with other metalheads.... and perhaps throw some humor into the whole equation..!!
as for Mr.Noogieburger..? well, after awhile you'll get used to him..... there are actually alot of cool people around here... perhaps some of them like to refer to themselves in the third person..?

"Id rather you stopped referring to yourself in the third person, unless you really have to. All it does is create the impression that you're being a clown."
LOL You'd rather Mr. Noogieburger stopped reffering to himslef in the third person? f*** you. Are you going to sue Mr. Noogieburger if he doesn't?
PFFFT!

I'll keep that in mind, though his being "cool" doesn't mean very much to me. I was drawn to this thread specifically because I wanted to find out a date for Metallica's new album. The only reason I'm staying here is because I wish to find out why Metallica's old fans now hate them as if they've been personally offended. It's only common sense that I'll respond to whichever post seems relevant to me. If mr. noogieburger's first post was sarcastic, well sarcasm doesn't work as I said earlier. The only thing which annoyed me was how shallow and profane his first post was.

Excuse me if I don't find that funny, and anyway it wasn't my main point. Besides, people shouldn't have to put up with an immature little kid telling everyone to stuff their comments where the sun don't shine. In case you didn't get this one either, the immature little kid is the impression I'm getting of mr. noogieburger.

btw NED.. your recent guitar purchase is cool to see.. yes.. I might say..thats a fine choice for a first...!!! I'm quite confident that if you choose to stick with it...you will be purchasing something of a bit better quality in the future ...??
For damn near the same money as you spent on that new one that was made in Korea or Indonesia you can find a decent used American made guitar on Ebay that would be ALOT better quality used... than many are new..!!
BLS - House of Doom

I'm not sure where you've looked up my guitar, godlike, but you seem to be saying it's expensive. It cost me £130 which I think was pretty cheap.
As for a second-hand guitar I thought about it but there's huge potential for defect and I expected to spend a lot of money trying to find and repair whatever's gone wrong; especially if it's a guitar suited for heavy metal- most people who use these don't tend to leave them completely intact after use :)
"Excuse me if I don't find that funny, and anyway it wasn't my main point. Besides, people shouldn't have to put up with an immature little kid telling everyone to stuff their comments where the sun don't shine."
I hate to break this to you sweetheart, but you're at Metalunderground now, so you better get used to that or leave. Or better yet, IGNORE IT.

ZT, I might just do that. As to your previous comment, I wouldn't call branded a baby who can't accept change. Since I couldn't find out what Metallica had done so wrong, I decided to ask someone who REALLY hated them, and for a reason. Read branded's comments a few posts above and you'll see. I can't say I'm a Metallica hater since I love just about every song they've released but it's useful trying to understand those who are.

why no NED... on the contrary..!! I am a bit of a guitar nut..Ive been playing for about 30 yrs...!!
I was only commenting on that being a good first guitar because of price and quality...!!
As for the used or experienced guitar market....yeah there will be problems or defects...but most are easily fixed... which isnt a bad idea to begin with....if your gonna play em...you should know how they work and how to fix em too....
the IP logged thing will show if someone is using different screen names in different posts.....??
Blackfoot - Road Fever

no that wont make a difference... Were your first few posts made from a different computer....??
That is tracking the IP address of the computer your posting from....
notice how all of mine are the same...? now click on someone elses....
you might notice that there are some people that post under different names...

you got me by the short hairs ladies...!! I really dont know a helluva lot about the damn things... (computers that is)...
the moral of the story is.... there just might be a few poeple around here that post under a different name....sort of like an alter-ego type thing...??
Or perhaps.... they are just plain idiots that want to make it seem like they have alot of poeple that agree with their moronic ramblings...
so anyway NED... Im happy to see there is another guitar player in our midst.... have you started lessons or learning anything yet..?? what kind of amp did you get..?
I have a collection of electrics that I like to play with as much as possible...sometimes it seems like there just isnt enough time for em all...
Scorpions - Dynamite

Before I go, I'm still using my old bass amp. I got a cheap bass pack when Behringer had a clear-out for about £60, was brand new at the time and it's still doing a fine job.
As for the guitar, I've been playing acoustic for nearly 2 years now, started electric as soon as I bought it on thursday. I wasn't a huge Metallica fan until recently, around the middle of January I'd say. I've been having guitar lessons for almost a year now, and I'm still parted between electric and acoustic. I think I'll practice both for as long as I can, to balance things out. There's good stuff that's unplugged too, you know :)
Anyway, I better go. Mondays are always very long for me. Good night everyone.
