I'm certainly not saying they're at the top of my list, but if you play Orion, or Call of Ktulu... I'm immediately rocking out!
Metallica, whether you like them or not, was a VERY powerful force with their early albums, well written, expertly produced, and able to back that up with sold out world tours.
I don't want to start an argument, since musical tastes are as diverse as cigar preferences. But anybody who says they "suck" is just plain LOST!

ok - one of my favs right now I can only find on youtube - other versions of both songs by various artists are out there on CD, but this is the shit: Twilight Singers with Mark Lanagan doing a "Live with Me / Where did You Sleep Last Night" medley. fuckin' sick. Also, Lanegan with Soulsavers on "Revival". Also been listening to some Nick Cave - this guy is a genius.

Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds are flipping awesome. Basil, you should check out
Grinderman, another Nick Cave project.
As far as Metallica, I've loved them since 5th grade when my older cousin made me a copy of Master. Even liked the black album...then they cut their hair and it was like they lost their powers.
St. Anger had potential but was IMO, one of the most poorly produced albums I've heard. The dvd does sound way better.
They may be HUGE assholes (James and Lars) but Kirk is a guitar god and James was right about Trujillo, ST rocks.
Did anyone see the Some Kind of Monster doc? I lost all respect for Lars and James as human beings, but I'll still listen to their old stuff and throw up the horns.

Nick Cave. Awesome! Just listening to some old NC and the Bad Seeds last week. You cannot deny the power of a song like "The Mercy Seat".

I guess if you like to hear grating horror movie music with the chorus sung over, and over, and over........
I can't stand that guy. He may write some interesting lyrics, but he can't sing his way out of a paper bag, and there is zero musical talent behind him.

Hey, they've been around longer than Metallica dude. Rick Rubin also kicks ass because he keeps crates of porn in his house. Didn't he used to pretty much run Def Jam?
End of line.
Don't get me wrong, I totally think getting Rick Rubin was a huge score. He and Russell Simmons built Def Jam from scratch.
And Metalllica and Slayer both formed in 81, at least that's what Wikipedia tells me.
