Every, and I mean EVERY band ever formed had hopes for success and stardom. I don't think they sold out, their style changed. Lars did drive some changes that were less than ideal, but Kirk made sure it didn't change too much. I love the early stuff, got my first metallica tape (a bootleg of Kill 'em ALl) in '88 when I was 13. Changed my life. I think it is hilarious when people make stupid comments like "they were better drunk". Really? You would rather they fully destroy their lives so you can have a new CD? James is a true hot rodder, armani clothes or not. Lars comes from money, hell he was a semi-pro tennis player as a kid. Lars has been very clear that he regrets the napster thing, he was caught up in controlling everything Metallica, he has apologized over it repeatedly. If you like Led Zeppelin and know their history you will know that LZ doesn't care about their fans, in fact Robert Plant has said repeatedly that he makes music for himself, he could not care less about the fans. Talk about a douche. LZ doesn't allow their music to be used in movies, they sued the studio over the movie Dazed and Confused. In the end, they lost. They let caddilac use their music in a commercial after they paid LZ a butt load of money. I like how all you haters out there have remained the same since junior high, you never changed at all, right? I bet you are still flipping burgers too. If you don't like the music, just say that, it isn't for everyone, but don't use stupid phrases like "sold out" to belittle THE GREATEST METAL BAND IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!</blockquote>
