Dude is menacing.

What do you mean I don't support your system? I go to court when I have to.
What do you mean I couldn't be President -- of the United States of America
I'll tell you something. It's still "We, The People...," right?

If there's a new way
I'll be the first in line
But it better work this time


Little ****. He and Mike Muir do not like each other. At all. I think they had it out once or twice on a tour once.
 
lead singer david lee roth does a high kick directly into james hatfields crater face and launches him into outer space advantage van halen

guitar eddie van halen looks at kirk hammett and hammett realizes he isnt fit to even cower in the shadow of one of the greatest axe smiths of all time and launches himself into the sun advantage van halen

bass michael anthony and cliff burton would actually probably just be brohans and go get a beer and then just be awesome together and would gang up to find lars ulrich and beat him up together draw

drum kit alex van halen would be standing alone looking for lars who is like others have said aleady hiding in a tree from mike a and c burton trying to make cookies like keebler elfs do in a tree so advantage x 1000 to van halen

at the end of things the tale of the tape clearly shows van halen winning 3 rounds out of 4 with a draw in the 4th round take that to the bank brohans
 
Van Halen. This one's easy.

I watched David Lee Roth line up backstage skanks at a concert here in KC when I was about 13. He walked down the line and pointed out:

you
you
you
not you
not you
you
not you
you
you

Lars shut down Napster.
Guessing those "not you"s are probably CEOs today.
 
so far four people have voted for metallica but no one is standing up for metallica which is sort of like real life a lot of people know and listen to metallica songs but no one will admit it take that to the bank bromigos
 
What's odd about that is Metallica used to be the underdog's underdog. They refused to do a video for MTV to gain credibility. They built their ardent fanbase through relentless touring and attention to their craft and fans.

Then, somehow, they became the overdog's overdog. They cut a video. They toured arenas. They got too big for other thrash bands. They were singularly huge. Mariano Rivera walked out to the Yankee mound -- the height of all entertainment overdogs past and present -- in the middle of yet another Yankee dynasty to a crappy song off of a crappy album, and Metallica was cemented forever with heavy rock music.

Now they're best loved anonymously and with the sense that maybe they became a little self-important along the way and don't need stadiums of adoring fans, but a gun in their back and a bowl of rice a day (bonus points for anyone who catches that reference).

man i dont know about hatfield being tough but what i do know is that it would be hilarious seeing dave lee roth beating the ever loving hell out of hatfield while he does a whole scatman thing like in i aint got nobody take that to the bank brohans
 
Depends on Metallica's lineup at bass. Burton and Trujillo would probably want to bro it out, while Newsted would destroy VH with his death-stare and whiplike hair movements.

I might've considered Metallica until I saw their documentary - Some Kind of Monster - probably 15 years ago. They say never meet your heroes. I would say if you like a band, never watch their documentary.

I voted Metallica but I didnt read directions. I think Metallica has the better overall body of work, but peak Van Halen is tough to beat.

Really? It’s not even close. Metallica in a 1st round stoppage.

DLR is too busy doing his hair, practicing his screaming and trying to get laid, Eddie’s over in a corner drinking from the bottle and working on his finger speed to drunk to care, all while little Van Halen is just holding his bass saying “can’t we all just get along”.

While literally everyone on Metallica is in the running for angriest person alive. James and Lars don‘t need a reason to punch you in the face, they need a reason not too.

This is where I'm at too.

This is interesting, I don't know Metallica weren't revered by most metal/thrash fans

I thought Enter Sandman was a freaking great song, and thought the video was exceptional, and the Yankees closer coming out to that song was unbelievably bada**.

But then again, I wasn't a metal guy, so maybe me liking it was proof it sucked?

I remember at the time, my friends and I hated the black album, coming after the greatness of Justice. Lots of talk about "selling out", etc. Maybe it's my own age, but I feel the black album is excellent now and has aged very well.

They were revered, but I think there was a sell-by date. Personally -- and this might be just me -- I'd already turned away from Metallica when the Black Album came out. They'd already lost their underdog status by embracing MTV with ...And Justice For All, so I think antennae were up among fans. I think most guys like me that liked Ride The Lightning and Master of Puppets around when they came out (I think Master was '86 and I was listening to them starting in '86-'87) detested the Black Album by its '91 release date, which is nearly a half decade after Master and a lifetime away in teenage years. But I could possibly be speaking for only myself. I'm sure tons of fans loved it, as fans are wont to do. By then, I was listening to Rick Rubin produce Slayer and that was metal goodness to me. Not some "Don't Tread On Me" bit.

I also had really traded metal for punk and alternative (grunge and others) by '92, and had that sort of attitude. Metallica was sort of anathema to that during that time period. They were huge beyond huge and there was little special about them in a "I'm a drinkin', fightin', working stiff just like you" regard anymore. They were rock stars now.

But then again, I wasn't a metal guy, so maybe me liking it was proof it sucked?

Nah, that's too limiting. Things don't suck when they get embraces from people who like other genres -- unless the person judging the sucking is a nitwit. To be fair, in my younger days, I might have been that nitwit, but we'll let time heal wounds and memory pretend like I was the whitest knight ever.

tl;dr-

downhill after Cliff.

R.I.P 🤘

I had friends that refused to like Metallica anymore after the black album. Same thing, about selling out and whatnot. That record, however, was what made me like them. So I guess I was a bandwaggoner.
