I tought I heard something about it but no thread discussed it so I decided to open my own (hey, thats the beauty in TalkBass, isn't it?).
did Jason Newsted leave Metallica? if so, whose playing bass for them now (no, I'm not thinking of applaying myself for a new job)?

since then they only started to get worse and worse and not because of the appearent "sell out", it's because they didn't do anything that made me go: "yay, that was a cool one!", maybe some tracks on the black album were nice but I hate Justice and load/reload (and you wont count Garage Days and S&M for sure).

They should have carried.. just not as Metallica. They should have changed the name because they were no long Metallica. Metallica consisted of James, Kirk, Lars, and Cliff.

Read all the interviews and the guys would say everything was run through Cliff before it was done. He was their musical encyclopedia, he was the "frontman", he was Metallica. Now Lars thought he could do it. A drummer, nonetheless. Quote: Originally posted by Flea Claydirnt I would think most people would accuse them of going prog because of S&M. | Blasphemy. Thats a slap in the face to the prog world.

Here's an idea why don't you go do something productive with your time, like practice, insted of bashing a band you don't like. |
