I am torn between laughing my ass off and being infuriated over the blasphemy.
For your own sake: Don’t look up what Metallica was up to since the 90s.
I haven’t, on purpose.
Nothing after Load exists to me.
Thankfully, despite being a metal fan, I’ve never listened to enough Metallica for that song to get stuck in my head, and I probably never will. Fuck Metallica for supporting DMCA. I’ve heard they’ve been kinda coming around on it, but what a dick move. The way it’s set up tends to be ineffective or damaging to small artists.
Hell, what’s up with the big thrash metal bands? Like, Metallica helped get DMCA passed. Megadeth has Dave Mustane, a racist, homophobic, conspiracy-theorist and born-again Christian frontman. Slayer has an supposedly rabidly antitheist frontman. Anthrax is the only one where I don’t recall reading anything recent (within the last 10yrs or so) about the band members being shitty people.
This is why I don’t look into musicians lives for the most part, so many good musicians have shitty takes or ideas I’d rather just listen to the music
Like reading about Eric Clapton…
Godly musician, absolute shit stain human being…
