Yeah, I can't see them meeting much competition. Metallica is taking somebody out. They better...Best band ever! (IMO) And I agree with Goony on this one... Well, it's gonna be tough, because a lot of people still haven't forgiven Metallica for Napster.... but they truly are the best band ever, regardless of St Anger (which is still better than a lot of the junk some of the newer bands put out.) They're talented, but every other song sounds the same to me, as an all out rock song, or a ballad. I really like Master of Puppets the best, Orion is epic. Yeah, MoP and Orion are probably the best songs I've ever heard... and yes, that's my bias-love towards Metallica kicking in. EDIT: Oh, and I will agree that a lot of their stuff does sound alike. Ktulu. I don't concede the last point. To the consternation of many diehards, Metallica keeps finding ways to break the mold.
