Re: Songs that made you realize your favorite band was going downhill
[ QUOTE ]
Why do people always say that about Metallica? Their songs from post-Black Album era are objectively better than before. Stop trying to be cool by saying newer Metallica sucks; god forbid a band should develop musically beyond speed metal that all sounds the same. [/ QUOTE ] I think this was about the time Metallica started having group therapy sessions.

You're the first human being I've ever heard with that opinion. I knew Metallica turned into a bunch of hacks when I first heard "Fuel." Just contrast and compare the lyrics to something like "Creeping Death." Slaves Hebrews born to serve, to the pharaoh Heed To his every word, live in fear Faith Of the unknown one, the deliverer Wait Something must be done, four hundred years So let it be written So let it be done I'm sent here by the chosen one So let it be written So let it be done To kill the first born pharaoh son I'm creeping death Now Let my people go, land of Goshen Go I will be with thee, bush of fire Blood Running red and strong down the nile Plague Darkness three days long, hail to fire So let it be written So let it be done I'm sent here by the chosen one So let it be written So let it be done To kill the first born pharaoh son I'm creeping death Die by my hand I creep across the land Killing first-born man Die by my hand I creep across the land Killing first-born man I Rule the midnight air, the destroyer Born I shall soon be there, deadly mass I Creep the steps and floor, final darkness Blood Lambs blood painted door, I shall pass So let it be written So let it be done I'm sent here by the chosen one So let it be written So let it be done To kill the first born pharaoh son I'm creeping death This [censored] song makes me wanna kill [censored] babies that will grow up to become tyrants. Now contrast that to "Fuel" from the Load Album Gimme fuel Gimme fire Gimme that which I desire Turn on, I see red Adrenaline crash and crack my head Nitro junkie, paint me dead And I see red One hundred plus through black and white War horse War head [censored] em, man White knuckle tight Through black and white Oh, on I burn Fuel is pumping engines Burning hard Loose and clean Oh, and on I burn Turning my direction Quench my thirst with gasoline So gimme fuel Gimme fire Gimme that which I desire Turn on beyond the bone Swallow future, spit out hope Burn your face upon the chrome Take the corner, join the crash Headlights, head on Another junkie lives too fast Yeah Lives way too fast, fast, fast, fast, fast Oh, on I burn Fuel is pumping engines Burning hard, loose and clean Oh, and on I burn Turning my direction Quench my thirst with gasoline So gimme fuel Gimme fire Gimme that which I desire Oh Gimme fuel Gimme fire My desire Oh, on I burn Fuel is pumping engines Burning hard, loose and clean On I burn Turning my direction Quench my thirst with gasoline Gimme fuel Gimme fire Gimme that which I desire On I burn [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] This song makes want to bomb a theatre full of people watching 'Fast and the Furious' but not because the song kicks ass, simply because the theatre might be full of people that like songs like this one.

[/ QUOTE ] How is it "cool" to say new Metallica isn't as good? Who would we be trying to impress, exactly? Personally, I think even the Black album was the beginning of the downhill slide for Metallica, although it's not the boring pile of crap all the later albums are. Also, I wasn't aware there were objective criteria for measuring music, especially heavy metal. Subjectively, I think they used to rock. Now I think they sound like most other crappy metal bands. If you disagree, fine. You don't really fit the criteria of this thread, since you think they're still good.
