great results. some grade-a killer songs in the list so far. hopefully we've seen the last of the Black album as i think its best three tracks have been represented (might have been more sympathetic to The Unforgiven back in the day as one of the better numbers, but it sits awkwardly with me now).

oh and yeah, 4 Horsemen slays
― charlie h, Wednesday, 8 July 2015 05:10 (eight years ago) link
I was the person who voted it #1! Always loved that riff; the version from the Cliff 'Em All VHS tape... When the synchronized headbaning kicks in when the galloping riff and drums kick in... As a teenager it was just so fucking perfect.

oh man, it still is perfect, let's face it.
also: the Fight Fire With Fire vid from '86 is nothing short of ferocious. love how they tear through it, no bullshit, just going about the job in the most intense way imaginable. would have loved to have seen them in that era.
― charlie h, Wednesday, 8 July 2015 06:31 (eight years ago) link
Glad to see so much love for Fight Fire With Fire. But a bit gutted it's unlikely Leper Messiah will make it now. I thought it might be the one Puppets track to be overlooked, much as I love it.

Though by my reckoning there are eight dead certs and two wildcards to come, so who knows.

No forgot Fade to Black, only one wildcard.

Memorized all sorts of bits from Cliff Em All tape: the absomotherfucking-lutely bit, where they all play freeze, the bizarre intro where they walk into a convenience store and walk out with beer in hand.
And oh yeah, shit like that version of Four Horsemen. I was definitely an MTV kid, but we did go off the grid every once in awhile.

the fixxxer is great, unforgiven ii is almost better than the first one

i am not gonna see "the outlaw torn" in this countdown and i legitimately think it's the best metallica song
― insufficiently familiar with xgau's work to comment intelligently (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 July 2015 12:53 (eight years ago) link
at least i got "junior dad"
to me, unforgiven II is not only much much better than the first, but my favorite song by the band…it's like JH had matured in 98 to a point in which he could feel what he's talking about, whereas on the black album, he still too insecure that, I dunno, the guys in Metal Church might laugh at his pussy ballads. I didn't vote, but this would have been #1 if I did.

Never sure to what extent Lulu supporters are trolling; it just sounds flat-out horrible to me.

I have never trolled! also "junior dad" is legit gorgeous

Yeah sorry to cast aspersions, I'm sure it has its genuine fans. I just do not get it at all.

metallica wrote some of their most inspired riffs in years just for lou reed to yell poetry over them. jeez of course i love it
― insufficiently familiar with xgau's work to comment intelligently (BradNelson), Wednesday, 8 July 2015 13:21 (eight years ago) link
"Junior Dad" is not my favorite Lulu song and it's one that i think benefits from the context of the whole album, but i voted for multiple tracks from it and gave "Junior Dad" a vote because i knew it had the best chance of placing.

when Howard Stern goofed on the "I am a table" tune, I laffed uncontrollably for several minutes…

You guys this was the first Metallica song I ever heard and so I always (rightly or WRONGLY) think of them as an environmental band, like Nuclear Assault or something.

Actually, I don't really know if that's totally wrong, but I have my suspicions. Anyway, I fucking love this song.

Q: You played at Live Earth. What are your thoughts on the climate crisis. What can METALLICA contribute to [the whole process]?
Hetfield: "I really avoided the press around the Live Earth day. I didn't quite agree with what was going on there. Politics drive me crazy, and I don't like talking politics. Politics get in the way of things; they get in the way of getting things done, and getting our music across is what we wanna do — we don't wanna cloud it with 'Democrat, Republican,' whatever. Our philosophy is 'think for yourself' at the end of the day — do what you think feels right. I really believe that humans will survive. I have a lot of faith in mankind that we will overcome and adapt — whatever it is; whether it's man-made or God-made, or Earth/Mother Nature — we have a lot of smart people on this planet that will make something good out of bad."
