To take your minds off the tragedy...

[Iommic Pope]

I know we've just received some harrowing news, and I don't want to detract from the gravity of that at all.
But I just read this and thought that if you need something to just, you know, take the edge off, just for a minute, this is pretty funny.

Because, you know, tragedy effects us all at some point.

i couldn't make it through all of the new album.

even though i thought hardwired to self destruct was a pretty alright track. it gets a bit more mid-tempo, slowed down, and it's boring.

Dude I haven't even bothered.

Metallica should have given up the struggle for relevancy somewhere in the mid 90s.

So many lost riffs. And so many dik pix

[Iommic Pope]

Imagine all the pedal designs we lost as a species?
And all those contributions to future Metallica records that Lars and James would have vito'd anyway?
Tragic loss to all mankind.

Can we fucking talk about this, though

Every time I pick up my guitar, I’m hoping I can write the next ‘Rock the Nation’ or something

.

Dude wrote the "Die By My Hand" riff in Creeping Death and he's trying to aspire to a riff that became an evolutionary dead end when Mudhoney wrote Touch Me I'm Sick?

Can you get CTE from spending 30 years headbanging in Metallica?

Yes, let us. Because its ridiculous.

Yeah, I mean it is really easy to forget that there is some fucking great Metallica, AND that Kirk was a big part of that, but I'm gonna go ahead and say somebody doesn't feel like their contributions have been validated....

Yeah, or you can drink/coke/whatever your cognitive prowess away as well.
Honestly, I think it's just another effect of the bubble world they live in.

If I deteriorate to the point that I start thinking anything involving Sammy Hagar is cool I hope someone realizes it's time to shut the life support off.

DLR or get the fuck out.

Sammy Hagar is a dude and you idiots know it. Sure, he doesn't bring the party like DLR, but he is a rock n roller through and through.

Where'd that meme come from, stealing like half my post?
Woah.
