I was reading the other day about Brian Wilson's unreleased 'Sweet Insanity' album, which included this rap number sampling various beach boys classics.
To call it an abomination is probably too kind.
I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun.
I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.
But for the man who gave us 'God Only Know', 'Good Vibrations' and 'Heroes and Villains' to choose 'California Girls' as his favourite! The follow on clip is about the negative effect LSD had on him...
In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

When two giants collide and the sum of their parts aren't compatible.
All but the first four Metallica albums are varying degrees of cack but St Anger really pissed me off. It was just actively bad and was the peak of their megalomania. And replacing your drums with biscuit tins is never a good idea, Lars.

Metallica are overrated and reached their "live long enough to become the villain" phase very early on in their career.
St Anger is hilarious, but the first two songs do slap.
Metallica for me is a best of playlist, mostly stemming from pre-Black album stuff.

Black album was my entry point and I still like it, supremely overproduced soft rock though it may be in places.
Everything before that is great, everything after is pretty ropey. A friend at the time suggested that Reload should have been called Another Load.

Metallica is arguably 3-4 different bands/projects under one brand if you look at the back catalogue collectively.
Death Magnetic was cracking and a welcome surprise. The newest one (forgot the name) sounds like an average band trying to be old Metallica.
Black Album is good but it's not a Thrash record. It's let down by Sad But True, and Nothing Else Matters (first is slow and dull, second is a ballad and NO*). Don't Tread on Me is a fist pumper though.
*Although The Day That Never Comes on Death Magnetic gets the thumbs up as a Metallica ballad from me as it has the 3 minute Thrash instrumental outro I love old Metallica for.
I think for me it's just them as people that puts me off. They are the least "Metal" people imaginable, extremely toxic personalities and Lars is, well, Lars.
I watched Some Kind of Monster the other day again for a laugh, and it reminded me why I die inside slightly every time I stick them on. I want to hate them but they do honestly have moments that are incredible and integral to the history of heavier alternative music.

I only watched some kind of monster for the first time fairly recently. Lars and hetfield really are prize weapons aren't they? More so than I'd already assumed.

It was absolutely pathetic from both of them. Why you'd watch that back and think 'yeah, this shows us in a really good light' is baffling. Should never have seen the light of day.

Kirk comes off alright. He wanted an easy life and to enjoy the process. He was right in hindsight too, solos missing was a mistake.

He's just keeping schtum knowing full well he's done Mustaine up like a kipper...
God imagine that doc if Mustaine was still in the band. Jesus.
I love the part where Lars is like having an ego meltdown about his place in the world after the Echobrain gig. Pure jealousy leaking like any abusive type when the control slips over their victim.
On that note, they did also bully Newstead horribly. Oh and Hetfield hunts.
