    Whatffft did i actually say though?

    If the album was:

    Tonight tonight
    Jellybelly
    Zero
    Here is to no why
    Bullet
    Ode to no one
    Love
    Muzzle
    Porcelina
    Where boys fear to tread
    Bodies
    33
    In the arms of sleep
    1979
    Tales of a scorched earth
    Through the eyes of ruby
    Xyu

    That's fucking damn near perfect.

    I'll have to have a re-listen. I don't think I've put it on in at least 15 years.

    Everytime I see it when looking for music, I don't even think about playing it .. which says a lot.

    I just watched/listened to Metallica doing a cover of Prince (When Doves Cry).
    I highly recommend you all seek it out.
    (only because I hate you all... it is fucking terrible)

    Sometimes even the best band feels the need to make a blues album ... but what if it's really good?

    Well that was interesting.

    Nice to hear it with a bit of bass at least, on ya Rob Trujillo!

    Metallica are good at butchering covers, and Kirk is still a shitty guitarist.

    Google pestered me into one month free of Google Music. So I scratched around for albums is never got around to buying: Maroon 5 "Songs About Jane" is one of them and it's an impressive collection

    I know it's considered pretty cool to hassle the shit out of Metallica for whatever reason but can you elaborate why this is ?

    To me he combines technical wizardry with music you actually want to listen to. The likes of Malmsteen, Vai and Satriani bore me fucken stupid in comparison.

    @mn5 I just think he is really repetitive with his solos and his technique is sloppy compared to his contemporaries in thrash metal (e.g. Skolnick, Freidman). But it's a matter of taste and I'm not a thrash fan.

    I'd be fucking furious if I went to a Metallica concert and got that shit.

    Angus Young, Slash and Jimmy Page are pretty sloppy too and no one has a go at them.

    I've read plenty of criticism of Page over the years. An excellent composer and player in the studio but his live performances were very hit and miss. Fans of certain musicians/bands will always defend them despite their limitations.

    I think Zep are arguably the greatest band of all time and he is a genius as a songwriter/arranger/producer but purely as a guitarist there were others better. Richie Blackmore to me being the obvious one from that era.

    Blackmore is definitely underrated, but I'm a DP fan.

    Out of the 3 Yardbirds guitarists Beck maybe the best of them.

    No maybes....Beck is a fucken genius, second only to Hendrix although I don't go out of my way to listen to him. He has an amazing unique style that I've never heard anyone emulate.

    Eric Claptout can fuck right off as a Guitar Hero as far as I'm concerned.

    I love DP as well and it's such a shame Blackmore is best known for Smoke on the Water. He was probably the first shredder ever, the solo to Highway Star is just amazing when you consider when it came out.

    been listening to a bit of Tool.

    Which reminded me of this cover which I reckon is better than the original, these kids also do a great cover of Sober
