    They're okay every once in a while.

    Frankly, though, I think the 60's Mothers of Invention is still the greatest rock band ever, even moreso than the Beatles.

    Metallica is boring. "Ooh, we can make dumpy, vaguely-Sabbath-ish crap songs, then play them real loud so hopefully nobody notices how bad they are."

    That's quite harsh. While the modern Metallica is in fact boring, I grew up listening to Master of Puppets and One. Can't say that was boring for me.

    Compare those albums to Ace of Spades and Discharge's debut album.

    ...Of course, I might be looking at it from the wrong (right?) end of the Thrash spectrum.

    Probably their worst or 2nd to worst album... but still not bad. Songs For The Deaf, Rated R, and Self-Titled (Queens of the Stone Age) were the best ones.

    Agreed.

    Agreed here as well, growing up to that is pretty cool.


    Anyone listened to:
    You Think I Ain't Worth A Dollar, But I Feel Like A Millionaire
    Avon
    Song For The Dead
    Infinity
    In The Fade
    ?

    Those are some of the best ones that people usually haven't heard.

    There is no best band. Only personally preferencial bands.

    QOTSA, I don't mind, I do enjoy their earlier stuff sometimes yeah.

    Not a fan of Metallica either.

    But, each to their own.

    Yeah ofc I like Songs For the Deaf etc. But Vulgaris somehow hit me when I was in the US for a year. It was just the right album at the right time with the right people, even though it may not be as complex as others.

    Plus Kyuss! "Welcome to sky valley" Yaaaaaay.

    not necessarily. IMO Death Magnetic is much better than St. Anger and LOAD, which both were horrible albums (what was james hetfield thinking???) and that coming from a fanboi like me.
    Death magnetic returns to Metallicas roots of mostly thrashing and not as much singing.
    but i wil agree that their best work is Ride the Lightning (album) and Maste rof Puppets (album).
