Unforgiven Cover - Fade To Bluegrass
oh, and metallica's black album was released in the 1990's not 1980
Metallica - "The Thing That Should Not Be"
>> ^kulpims:
damn! can't seem to enjoy even Metallica's pre-black album songs anymore. I hate them nearly as much as I loved them in those highschool metal dayz
Why? (hating takes up so much mental energy I need a really good reason usually...others don't seem to have a higher threshold for emotional entanglement than I, however.
Metallica - ' Enter Sandman '
Obvious statement of the year, but Metallica went downhill once Cliff Burton died. Justice was a decent album, and there were some good songs on the black album, but overall they're spent. I miss the days of REAL metal; now everything is numetal infused with ska, hiphop, blah blah, etc. Give me some ol' Metallica, Megadeth, Soundgarden, Motorhead, Pantera, old Scorpions any day.

The Pixies Performing "Gigantic" at Lollapalooza '05
I am a huge pixies fan, I saw them once in the early 90s, and I've followed Frank Black in the intervening years. I am happy to see this on the sift.
However... I feel this was kind of a bad performance. I think Black's opening vocals were sloppy, Santiago's playing in the beginning and a few other parts feels distinctly off-pitch. In general it seems a little... low energy. OK, I guess the pixies aren't the young rock stars they were 15 years ago, I guess I'm not either.
It's kind of funny I remember being a little shocked by each and every one of the pixies albums, and the first 2 frank black albums. They seemed so... loud and hard. I don't know how to explain it. Looking back at them it sometimes surprises me that they are tamer than I remember, probably because the intervening years have seen mainstream rock go for the same level of noisiness. When I saw Santiago play I was just blown away, I thought he was going to hurt himself or someone else, he was frantic.
It's true that the Pixies had only modest success in the US. 15 years later I hear more people claim to have been at their shows than can possibly be true. I think this is a little bit like how my dad claims to have listened to the doors but probably listened to 3 dog night.
Danger Doom (Danger Mouse & MF Doom) - The Mask
Most people will remember Danger Mouse from his awesome Grey Album where he mixed the Beatles White Album and the Jay Z Black Album. And Benjee, MF Doom doesn't have as many nicknames as Kool Keith, Dr DooM, Dr Octagon, Black Elvis.
Correct the titles, the 2nd rapper here is Ghostface Killah from Wu Tang Clan.
DJ Danger Mouse: The Grey Video (The Beatles breakdance!)
A short explanation/further example of Danger Mouse's (the guy behind Gnarls Barkley) project can be found in this video on YouTube. Essentially, it's an amazing 'mash-up' or remixing of The Beatles White Album and Jay-Z's Black Album (I know: he's a much better crack dealer than he is a person/musician/lyricist, but it's actually quite good). The Grey Album (Danger Mouse's entire project) was the most downloaded music ever on the internet (much to the dismay of the record companies attempting to make a profit from his hard work).
P.S. The video is worth a watch alone - no-where else can you find Ringo scratching vinyl or The Beatles break-dancing!
Kirk Hammet - teaches some Metallica stuff
Bit strange that Hammet is demonstrating the main riffs of the songs when all of the main riffs on the albums was done by Hetfield and was predominately played by Hetfield when live.
Still love the old stuff despite them self-imploding after the black album
