3. For Metallica to put together a decent album again.
--MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM IRAQ EVERYONE!!--
For #3, I think they passed the torch to Godsmack or AudioSlave. I could tolerate (just barely) Queen and Elton John covers, but then Bob Seager....why not just throw in Tiny Tim and Egleberg Humperdink in for good measure.
Favorite album (you know our ages right?) from the boys is Ride the Lightening.....they did pretty damn well and shook things up a bit; but they aren't quite Zep in my book!
I understand they have to grow musically and all of that, but I have to agree with you, with the exception of a few songs of Load and Reloaded...not much to be impressed with since the Black album (Spinal Tap, crucial!)
