mxxconOpen-toe sandals are really not metal..
poolcleanerAs a metal head myself, though I tend more towards the early bluesy Sabbath/KISS/SLB/Priest sounds and aesthetics of the late 60s and early 70s, my problem is less about the sandals and more about them playing into the public perception of "metal" --which is apparent when they cover the most over played piece of shit in the analogs of metal.
This is quintessentially not even metal when Metallica plays it. If these kids mattered in the realm of metal -- and they could have despite their sandals -- they would have covered Hit the Lights off of Kill Em All, (Mustane, bitch) or a moving instrumental like Orion off of Master of the Puppets.
Say what you will about Mustane and his unmetal born again bullshit, when you hear him on Hit the Lights... you're fucking owned by the beast. You know metal. And it knows you. Enter Sandman, NOT metal.

ChaosEngineAnd here we see one of the reasons I stopped listening to metal for a while.
Fuck "true" metal and anyone who says they know what is or isn't "real" metal. You go down that path and you end up listening to nothing but Manowar.
It's either a good heavy song or it isn't.
Sandman's pretty far from my favourite Metallica track, but it's a decent tune and a good "gateway drug" into heavier stuff.

FlowersInHisHairCovering popular standards is a good way of practicing and also of getting some views. Many bands on YouTube do it and it seems a bit weird and pompous to pick on these talented performers for doing it too.

poolcleanerFuck true metal? It's mostly a joke, dude, not a sense of entitlement. You want to read entitlement and serious judgement in my comments? By all means, chaotic fool, use it as a platform for your Internet social gain. But I'm speaking from the perspective of someone with years of knowledge passing it down. I cited songs which Metallica wrote and played which are hard and fast, raw and powerful, exuding the youthful energy of their best albums, which are for some reason blacklisted and instead we hear the songs that the recording industry WANT you to hear because they're marketable. The songs I listed are awesome and considered by some to be the real gift Metallica left us with, like Van Halen's first 4 albums.
I bestowed a gift, and you saw me being high and mighty for my gain? Sounds like YOU have some problems to deal with.
I dont only listen to metal. I played sax, guitar, bass, and drums, but now mostly play percussion -- I like hitting things. I was in a rolling Stones and velvet underground cover band, played some gospel folks stuff for a while. I provided my perspective on metal because I thought it beneficial. For the music obsessed, hearing something over and over on the radio for the remainder of your life, when there is better material from the band and the idea of popularity as some sort of higher value than the subtleties you pick up on when you have standards, it's all very silly to read. You are a jerk and now I'm sad.
Thanks. Gift horse doesn't like staring contests.

eric3579I like turtles.
ChaosEngineForgive me, oh benevolent metal god, I guess you're more metal than me.
/rolls eyes
I never said you only listen to metal, and I didn't disagree with you that Metallica's early albums are great (although Lightning, Puppets and Justice are a massive improvement on Kill 'em all).
But you're not some benevolent metal guru here to "bestow a gift", you're bitching about a song that a bunch of teenage girls choose to cover. They're just starting out as musicians. Let them find their way before you get all righteous on their ass.
And just for the record, I didn't upvote this either. I just don't see the point in picking on them.
