Probably not much savings involved in buying a condo in Vail.

he over paid by $800K or something like that just because he loved being able to take an elevator from the complex garage straight to his unit.

By all accounts he's an awesome and super dude. However, his lifestyle determines his deathstyle.

He's going to plummet to his death in an elevator, is what you're saying.

I guess it depends on how you watch it.

Comedy: Amazing
Band Documentary: Interesting
Metallica Fan: Painful

The doc is great but it makes them look like such tools. I have to give them credit for even releasing it. But more likely they were just too oblivious to realize how lame they had become.

Complexity does not equate to quality. Not dissing early Metallica, but I don't think their later output is even the same type of music, so that kind of comparison doesn't mean much to me.

Sure. But that complexity is what set them apart in my mind. They traded that in for generic riffs, trite lyrics and mediocre drum work by Lars.

Can you imagine being in a band and playing with Dave Lombardo after years of dealing with Lars, and then having to go back to Lars after only a short time? It's like Flowers for Algernon or something.

lol at Lars. What a d baggo. First class.

sigh

Invisible Kid was pure torture. this is wrong. Someone stop this.

I know, St. Anger is so great right

It's better than the Black Album. I have the "unbrickwalled" version.

For all the talk about Ulrich's drums on this album, I can honestly say that its the least horrible thing about it.

"Sometimes it feels like it only rains on me"? Are you fucking kidding me Hetfield?! My World can't be a real song by a band thats been around as long as Metallica. It just can't be.

How did you get hold of an unbrickwalled version?

I have no good excuse for this but there it is.

James Hetfield is one of my favorite singers to poorly imitate.

I've been meaning to get the unbrickwalled version.
