Mastodon opened for Metallica at Wembley in 2007 and they were really good. I've never been a fan of Mastodon but after seeing them live I have alot more respect for them. Also that day was Machine Head and... H.I.M. I'll let you do the maths and decide who the better band was!

Dammit will you b****es just get over it already. I am a huge Metallica fan... Every Album... almost every song! I respect Branded opinion because along time ago i learned from Depeche Mode that "People are People" LOL If he wants to post off handed Metalli-hate.... GOOD! He can and he can make fun of me for living in their music. He lives through other bands and "OLD" metallica sometimes. For the love of all things metal, mosh pit rules apply. If I don't like Branded's actions I move away, if he falls down, I pick him up!!!! Let's just talk about what's good. Branded stay true to you but at least at somepoint tell the "NUBBIES" as I call them that Metallica is still one of the best live bands touring. I will see them when they come to Nashville and it will unbelievably be my first time.
Duece everyone

52. writes:
see you are not understandiong what every1 has told you. i have told this b4. i think that the 1st cd till the black cd were great cds. you just have a huge hard on for me. admit it. you think you are actually making yourself look all bad a$$ with your ignorant posts. every1 here has already tried telling you about all this. GO AHEAD AND TALK ALL THE SMACK YOU WANT. YOU ARE JUST SHOWING THAT YOU CANT READ WHAT OTHERS HAVE TOLD YOU AND DIGEST IN YOUR FEEBLE BRAIN.
AGAIN, TO RICKTHECO(CKLOVINGPRICK, I STILL THINK THAT METALLICAS 1ST 5 ALBUMS WERE GREAT. I HAVE NEVER DENIED THAT. NOW I FIRMLY DESPISE METALLICA. HOPEFULLY YOU CAN ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND THAT. I MEAN ITS IN ENGLISH!!
AS FOR YOUR HATEMAIL FROM METALLICA FANS, YOU SEEM TO BE THE ONLY ONE ACTUALLY SENDING ANY HATE MY WAY. EVERY1 ELSE IS SITTING BACK LAUGHING AT YOUR COMPLETE RETARDATION OF THIS WHOLE MATTER!! NOW, GO TELL MOMMY YOU ARE HUNGRY, MAYBE SHE WILL GIVE A NIPPLE TO SUCKLE ON...BAAAA BAAAA BAAA SHEEPBOY!!!!

Branded is saying the same thing he's said since day 1. He was one of the first people I kind of connected with on this site. Our tatses in music are very similar, and I am also from NC. He's always said that he liked Metallica from Kill 'em all to the self-titled release. To be honest alot of people here share his opinion, but might not be so vocal about it.
I have to say after all the stuff that has been written, I honestly don't know what it is you are trying to accomplish here, Rick. The members of this site, including Branded, are pretty decent people. We are very accepting of other metal fans and actually love to see new faces around here. We are a fairly tight-knit virtual community, we all tend to frown on blatant negativity, and as you noticed, we all do tend to stand up for one another. If you'd like to be a part of that, or just come here to talk music, that's great. Other than that, I'm not sure what else we can do for you.

I have to disagree on the Ozzy thing, though. I'm kinda hoping he hangs it up while I actually do have some respect. The albums are OK, I suppose, but I don't feel his heart is in it anymore. Certainly "Black Reign" was mediocre at best. On top of that the reality shows can rot. That, to me, is not metal.
55. writes:
i agree netro, i feel the same, about his heart not in it anymore. i firmly believe that sharon is pushing him more and more to make more music to get richer. sharon needs to get her own money making thing going instead of running the god-father of metal to an early grave!!

56. writes:
Netro will all due respect i can not understand why you and the rest of your members defend that cancer aka 420....i get that memebers stand up for each other but they also are quick to defend a member and afraid to stand up when a member is out of line or being disgracefull to non members....5 days on here i can tell that...it s not to dificult to figure out...i d just like your members to be real...and butt kissing and loln just because your members, is out of context and phoney....especially for a quality site like this......your member broke 2or 3 of your site pre rules...is it that hard to follow through your sites rules and regs on mu?
Review my threads on the metallica posts on what i am about and how much i do respect this site, but if your telling me you defend the comments and statements he or she has made the last 4 or 5 days provokeing a personal war with every metallica supporter or someone like me who just respects there work then you are
Then im sorry netro you got some miopia and some soul searching to do...be united as a group just keep it real, and show some respect to non members that have a decent opinion thats all....i know you think im some sort of hater that starts crap but thats far from the truth, review my takes .....your member ignited this garbage and i gave he or she a dose of his or her own medicine, but until someone maybe of your height in the food chain here steps up and says basically knock it off,.( meaning to your member that gets all obnoxious) the site will not go that other level.....i wish this site well, and i am who i am, i have quality takes i dont a$$ kiss ad all i ask is for mutal respect..... and if it dont happen well then the same crap will go on, not as long but it wont end,.... good luck netro.....respectfully .....RTB

57. writes:
As for you NUBBINS, i dont portray myself in anyway, i have 2 missions here now, to continue to expolit you for the horses a$$ you are by carrying on a war with a nonmember for 3 or 4 days and two, to destroy you,...fact of the matter isthe day i came in on this site your were getting b/fd by 3 or 4 metallica people, and you shook them off like you thought you where the sh**, but i came in gave decent opinions and your started your crap, i walked away a few times and your unemployed a$$ still wanted more, i called you out you did nothing but cry and kiss a$$ and loln to anyone that would give u a thread, as long your running, whinning and crying,....game on......and netro all he did was grill on metallica and hate...start with the wacken posts and work your way up, not once did he or she say that duuuhhhhhh ya i liked metallicas albums .....so how was i suppose to know that this jerk had any respect for them when all he does is hate and talk out of his ass......you couldnt find your a$$ with 2 hands NUBBINS....

Apparently you take this much more seriously than any of us here do. I'm not going to "review" or "research" the posts in a rediculous online flame war. In so much as I honestly didn't bother to read whatever it was you wrote beyond the second sentence. I care that little about the so called "facts" you seem so desperate to prove and much more about it being absolutely absurd. If you're here to defend MU, you can stop now. We are fine. I think I speak for a large percentage of this site. Can you say the same?
You repect this site? Show it. His opinion is different than yours. Get over it. So far the only with a problem is you.

rick just has a huge crush on me. GO AHEAD, TRY TO EXPOSE ME. YOU WILL FAIL. EVERY1 HERE ALREADY KNOWS WHAT I HAVE SAID IN THE PAST ABOUT METALLICAS 1ST 5 CDS. YOU JUST HAVE NO LIFE AND THINK YOU ARE DOING THIS SITE A SERVICE WHEN IN FACT YOU ARE DOING NOTHING BUT GIVNG IT A BAD NAME. YOU HAVE COME ON HERE AND DONE NOTHING BUT SHOW THIS SITE AND ITS OWNER DISRESPECT BY CONTINUOUSLY SHOVING YOUR BS RHETORIC AT ME AND THE OTHERS.
YOU TELL EVERY1 WHO TELLS YOU THAT YOU ARE DOING NO GOOD THAT THEY MIOPIA. GUESS MOMMY DOESNT LET YOU SUCKLE ENOUGH NIPPLE AND YOU ARE SO MAD AT HER THAT YOU COME HERE TO VENT YOUR ANGER...WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Netro, so your saying you condone garbage takes and cheapshots from your members and support bashing on non members....maybe i gave you too much credit, if you dont wanna review the whole story and search for the truth of the matter by just taking a side of a member just because of that, well thats pretty piss poor of you as well as miopic...good luck anyway.....NUBBINS the few people and i mean few people that have come to your rescue is because they feel sorry for you, i cant believe this site would support the garbage that comes out of your mouth, everyone wants the bs to end and everything to be cool, like i said, the longer we go the more foolish you look, my mission of making you look like the stupidest member of all time is complete, as for destroying you, in time....in time....

RTB.
Chill the f*** out. Branded had a DIFFERENT opinion than you, and you can't accept that? You are the one who needs to dig deep down and face reality. You are taking this flame war far beyond logical reasoning. You can't destroy someone over the internet. Branded will always have his reputation on here for being a honest metalhead. I respect Branded, just like I respect everyone on this site.
You need to chill out and think about how much of a jackass you are making yourself look like. Branded has tried time and time again to shut you up, but you keep egging him own. This argument is so stupid. You talk about how the longer this goes, the more foolish Branded looks, you're the one who looks like a fool. You are starting up a battle over NOTHING.
Seriously, just let it go, and move on. You're fighting over the Internet for f***'s sake.

this kid actually still believes that he is winning the people over. he claims hes not trying to, but eachtime he says how he is making me look the fool to every1 else, when every1 is calling him the fool. dam, i guess delusions can bring people down!!

ok ol rick keeps using the word myopic...here is the definition:
1. A visual defect in which distant objects appear blurred because their images are focused in front of the retina rather than on it; nearsightedness. Also called short sight.
2. Lack of discernment or long-range perspective in thinking or planning:
i do believe he is the nearsighted one on this battle. 420hater attacked me and i shot back. he comes in and defends 420hater (himself), and has consistently berated those who have told him he is the one causing all the probs here. its funny in the long run, cause he has shown nothing but disrespect while saying what he wants is to be shown respect.

O.k. I admit it. I argue with Branded because deep down I love him. I want to suck his big juicy man meat all night long, and lick his a$$hole clean. I want to then bust my nut in him, and let him do the same. I am a fag, and am now comming out of the closet. Branded will you marry me?

Whats goin on shi*heads, nice to see NUBBINS called in reinforcements to save his a$$ from drowning into the quick sand of reality....^ 77 79 81....haha loln loln loln, about as funny as ub40 up there thinking hes a deserving member of any site...blindgreed the plaque infects you dont tell me your gonna go belly up for someone whos not on the same wavelength as you, just because hes a member? Who has no art and whos takes are as piss poor as his a$$ kissing techniques are to get love from the mu...i understand bg you d be blacklisted for conversing or giving a non member any acknowledgement ever, so its ok, stay in the closet, i get it, just go back to the studio and do what u do best i offer 100 prayers for your safety....as for nubbins nice computer / sidekick / i phone self defense technique, about as predictable as your double standard takes and your crybaby reeling responses the last 4 or 5 days.....go back to chicken faqhn the hens in charlotte in your daddys barn half the day and live the rest of your day on the computer...as far as spell checks are concerned 1 its a goof on nubbins to make him run to dictionary dot com and to hear him squeele like a pig about my grammar...
2 its a desperate plea on his part cause he s all out of takes and insults he either goes to the grammar aka the setup card or cries to members that hes being ambushed again for the crap that comes out of his pie hole....hey nubbins SHOW US YOU TITS
Bg you said he had a lady....you sure that wasnt demoncleaner in drag?....anyways
