Metallica are fkn awesome. First concert I ever went to,wagged school drove hours to see them. One of my favourite memories as a teen! Even my horse ElleMay loved the Black album. My boyfriend at the time learnt every song on that album by ear... talented young man he was and ElleMay loved listening to him play it and I of course thought he was so cool lol. Rock on Metallica ✨💚

[@damouze]

If the Black Album sucks, then I should probably not tell my dad. He'll have a heart attack. Some twenty years ago he came to me with this album. "You should listen to this. It is very good."

I've never been a big Metallica fan personally ( not that I don't respect their musicianship, they are great musicians and performers), just wasn't all my personal vintage. But good grief are these guys FUNNY, and have an AWESOME sense of humor. I LOVE that. This is GREAT!!! I wish them the best, this video is awesome.

I remember my introduction to Metallica like it was yesterday It was around 1992. I was about eight years old and there was this cool older guy who gave me a tape of …And Justice for All. I went home and played that tape over and over, it is still my favorite album to this day.

[@littleraven28]

I saw them headlining a festival in June on one of the hottest days of the year and they were having fun, played longer than sheduled and were still on stage talking to the crowd when roadies were already getting gear off. It was awesome.

In Slovenia (EU) we grew up listening to Metallica in high school. We all knew the band, we all listened and sang their songs. Especially with the Black album, the band approached those who had not listened to this genre. In those days, Metallica was No. 1.

When they were reading the Black Album hate, I was waiting for Rob to say, "Not my fault . . ." . :) For the record, I love all of their albums (even St. Anger). :)

[@StoneColdMagic]

@Peter Alexander - Sometimes I feel bad for Rob when they get asked questions about the old days when he wasn't part of the band. He just kind of has to sit there while the guys tell Cliff stories or Jason stories.

[@palanthis]

Kirk repeating "Metallica Sucks" needs to be sampled and used in something else. I don't know what yet, but it shall be. While I am a "first four" kind of guy, I will admit that I listened to tBA like a hundred times as a kid when it first came out. Now, many many years later, I find that my Metallica playlist is just KeA, RtL, MoP, and aJfA. With a few songs from newer albums sprinkled in. I've been listening to them since I was about 5.

I like that it seems James was genuinely bothered by those negative tweets.

[@Kikdrumz]

I caught this too. His eyes looked beady and teary. I’m sure he couldn’t help but take a little bit of it personally since Metallica has been his baby since he was 18. He’s a sensitive guy (I mean that as a positive) that can roll with the punches but deep down he definitely feels things deeply, even when they’re tongue-in-cheek. Still the greatest frontman ever, and a one-of-a-kind role model.

[@crazygamer6601]

James Hetfield even said that Metallica wanted to do an album like the black album for a long time. They didn't make this record because of record label pressure. They made music that they wanted to. What, are they supposed to follow the same thrash formula for a 40+ year career? Stupid to call them sell outs. Honestly I kinda hate the sell out term in general. Bands aren't aloud to step outside of their normal formulas and follow a more mainstream sound without being hated on.

[@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS]

Yes, they should keep playing thrash!!

[@markanderson5095]

My man, this is a most excellent view and I totally agree

[@mikea4015]

The people that say they sold out when they wrote the black album would have been slamming them for writing the same shit over and over again if they stuck with the same formula every damn album.

[@kman8749]

I love thrashy stuff but I also really like the black album it allowed the band to slow things down and play melodic stuff and expand their arsenal. Metal fans are weird. They love their genre of music and shit on other genres lack of intricate music but then shit on their bands for becoming successful. If it keeps metal alive why are you bitching about it?

The thing is, no matter what you think of the Black album… These are some of the most talented musicians to ever step on stage. The fact that they sound as good today as they ever did, should be proof positive of that talent. Not to mention, writing 40 years of music is not easy. Keeping a fanbase happy for 40 years, is not easy. Reinventing yourself in lieu of the feedback you know you’re probably going to get, is not easy. Stepping out of the comfortability of your own skin in order to try something new is what made this country and world great. it’s what sets great apart from average or mundane. Be who you are and be proud of it, never be afraid to try something new and experiment with something old. Live life every day like it was your last and love like it was your first.
