strange how they're so far and away from 2nd place, if there even is one. I guess Iron Maiden would be them but even they don't have that much going for them outside of metal fans.
Iron Maiden predates them by quite a bit, and is an entirely different genre. Closest would be Slayer or Megadeth. Which is funny, because Metallica became rich and famous with Mustaine's songs.
I was talking popularity so it doesn't matter when you started. Also nobody gives a shit about slayer or megadeth and it's laughable you'd have them over Iron maiden.
Holy based.
I knew I wasn't the only anon who also thought this. For Whom The Bell Tolls is a literal masterpiece. Especially the Cliff Burton version.

yeah it's their best. slow and powerful. there's nothing else like it in thrash. metallica were just so far ahead of the rest of their peers it's crazy

No, pal, that's just you. There's a lot of this going on throughout the thread from your stupid ass.

Here's a "meme" song from a "band no one has heard of"
The music is so predictable and the lyrics are so plain and boring. Why not Nile? Annihilation of The Wicked alone goes harder and better than anything Metallica ever did.
saw them 3 weeks ago. didn't have high hopes for it since the new album is so fucking bad but holy shit, they keep getting better every time i see them. best live show you'll ever see
>speed metal
Literally just heavy metal but the bands that want to make it known how much they love Motorhead over all the other NWOBHM want their own super special secret microgenre
strange how they're so far and away from 2nd place, if there even is one. I guess Iron Maiden would be them but even they don't have that much going for them outside of metal fans.
>naming your band after a female
>best band
kek, no

I don't know, Megadeth had their heyday and songs in movie soundtracks and shit. Mustaine's voice is a bit hard to listen to, though.
Tornado of souls would not work in any other voice than Dave's
Dave's voice is kino you filthy pleb
Master of Puppets is their best album because it isn’t tainted by Musty Dave
Ride the Lightning is their best album, LULZ chud.
Actually, Mustaine played one of the solos on Orion and is the uncredited co-author of Sanitarium
Get off LULZ Dave
their biggest song is Nothing Else Matters
MoP is overrated. The Nevermind of Metallica.
RtL, KtA, and AJfA all mog it
do you think megadeth is better than metallica too?
right
eternally 2nd best, just like megadeth
biggest hit: Enter Sandman
best song: Enter Sandman
why are the people always right?
and their best song is For Whom The Bell Tolls
Holy based.

What's your fav song from the album?
>metallica were just so far ahead of the rest of their peers it's crazy
so true
Lars is the shittiest thrash drummer in any band, ever.

He is right.
Drummers are just one aspect of a band and definitely not the main part, not the heart and soul.
it depends on the band
I would argue that Jaki was the most important part of Can's sound, for example
Yeah they set the background noise, but nobody fucking listen to rock music for the drummer, they listen for the singer or guitar soloist or bassist.

that sucked ass
Vocals were a key part of that
absu
>they listen for the bassist
nobody can hear the bassist lmao
>t. coping drummer
They set the fucking beat, for fuck's sake. They had to work extra hard around his shitty drumming.
Everything in music should contribute to a greater whole. Lars haters don't understand this basic fact
The music is so predictable and the lyrics are so plain and boring. Why not Nile? Annihilation of The Wicked alone goes harder and better than anything Metallica ever did.
>Nile
Who?
If it's a popularity contest then yeah, Metallica wins by a landslide.
They sing about pharaohs and shit, it's pretty funny.
>t. got into metal 2 months ago
they are the buttrock of metal but I like them because I'm not a hardcore metal fan and just like the surface level bands
saw them 3 weeks ago. didn't have high hopes for it since the new album is so fucking bad but holy shit, they keep getting better every time i see them. best live show you'll ever see
Holy dogshit, Texas? Only steers and queers come from texas, private cowboy, and you don't look like a steer to me so that narrows it down.
zip those cocksucking lips, coastie
Probably true
Also Mickey Dee is still the best rock drummer currently alive
