I was always more inclined to alternative music as a youngster and I'd quite happily sit and watch their video's on the Kerrang! channel and stuff, I remember enjoying tunes like 'November Rain' and 'You Could Be Mine' and that when I was younger. I just never really felt passionate about them. It wasn't until I heard heavier stuff that I really got excited about music and became a real fan, around the age of 13 or 14 when I started discovering bands like Machine Head, Pantera, Fear Factory, Sepultura and the like.
Metallica are another band I've never been too fussed about, I don't mind some of their earlier stuff (Justice for all was by far their best album IMO) but rock music in general's just never really got me excited the way metal did.
I'll give G'N'R's new stuff a blast at some point tonight, I'm actually quite interested to hear what it's like what with it being 15 years in the making an' all  |
I used to be a huge Metallica fan but became too disillusioned with them after hearing one mediocre album after another. I never liked their Black album but after hearing the ones that came after I began to appreciate it a little more but not too much. Load was bad, Reload was very bad, Garage Inc. was bloated and quite pointless, S&M was also pointless and an ego massage if anything and it was all rounded off with one of the worst albums ever produced imo - St. Anger. I still ain't got round to their new one and am in no rush either. Their '80s material was brilliant though. Justice was always my favourite but I'm too familiar with it now so my favourite is Master Of Puppets with And Justice For All, Ride The Lightning and Kill 'Em All just behind. I think Metal Militia is one of
the great metal songs.
To be honest though I've always been a bigger Megadeth fan than a Metallica one.
So your opinion on Chinese Democracy please?

I had a quick listen to them yesterday after reading this post. They sound alright but I'll need to listen again. They're certainly a lot softer than what I normally listen to judging by those songs.
