MetallicA by AAL2014

I love Metallica. Always have. Always will. They've gotten me through tough times. They introduced me to a new style of music, taking what I all that I thought was possible in rock music to the extremes. Anger meeting harmony. Power meeting grace. Thrash meeting taste.

If you don't agree with what you just read, that's fine, wouldn't be anything particularly new when it comes to my love for Metallica. Quite the opposite as it all started in 7th grade.. Before I loved Rush or Iron Maiden or anybody short of Van Halen, Hendrix, and Stevie Wonder. A friend of mine convinced me to listen to Metallica and get out of my comfort zone. He burned me copies of Ride The Lightning and Master of Puppets (copies that I still have with his, uh, rendition (?) of the MetallicA logo loud and proud with black Sharpie). Those albums burned holes in my CD player at the time as I fell in love with the music, the likes of which I had never heard.

Since then, obviously I have expanded my horizons even more and Metallica has come and gone from my listening habits but never from my list of favorites or influences. I have had to defend my love for Lars Ulrich more times than he has fucked up Disposable Heroes live. ;) But seriously, Lars is a huge influence of mine and I wouldn't be where I am today as a musician without his beats to guide me through my first few years of drumming. Internet drummers and friends be damned, Lars is a drum hero.


Anyway, I love Metallica. Here's my take on their greatest work that developed a legacy for them that few bands have ever achieved. Enjoy Metallica lovers and haters.
