[QUOTE="AllOut, post: 1984508, member: 12099"] Except Metallic was never a "Heavy" Metal band, like MegaDeth it's Thrash Metal. Heavy Metal bands like Slayer, Pantera, Sepltura, then the Death Metal guys like Cannibal Corps, Celtic Frost etc are true to the "Heavy" in the Metal. I like all forms of Metal, Thrash being one of my favorites. But all the bands i just named have stayed pretty true to original form over their careers except Metallica. There is no way you can say Metallica's last 3 albums are as "Metal" as their first 3. In fact the last 3 are not even Metal at all, it's more hard rock at best. That drastic change in their style is where the "sell out" label comes from in the Metal Head crowd. Real Metal bands have attitude and care only about Metal and don't care what the media, labels or any of the other corporate crap says or does. Those guys do what they want when they want, they make real metal cause it's what inside them. As Metal fans that's what we want and we feel that attitude in the music. Metallica use to be that way. 71Buick, no matter how bad you want to deny it and point fingers at other bands or their members flaws, Metallica does not make Heavy or Thrash Metal music anymore. To true metal heads that is "selling out"... [/QUOTE]
