All Them Other Guys / Re: Load and Reload
« on: June 17, 2026, 11:32:44 PM »
Thanks for the replies my friends
First I am going to be forced to agree with Vyn and Zzzptm about the spark of creativity that was extinguished when Cliff died
I still like the Black Album, Death Magnetic and Hard Wired To Self Destruct but they are vastly inferior to the original 4 albums
@charger- I am very close to sharing most of your opinions on these albums except I think that Load is very weak IMHO
@kdc- I know that thrash metal is not for everyone and I'd say that coming from your perspective I can see how the albums would have a appeal to you. I am glad you enjoyed Load.
And though Metallica deny it Reload is all the crap that didn't make the first cut on Load
And I agree with you on them both being better than St. Anger
@Zzzptm- I found myself in total denial of what I was hearing and seeing and modern Metallica became uncomfortable for me
I felt completely betrayed by the whole image they were adopting and the quality of the music was abysmal
@Vyn- Speaking of lipstick 💄 😍
The band had more makeup than motley crue ever wore
Cliff truly was such a loss
