Van Halen - Metallica would be one man short while Lars sat in a corner crying.at their absolute peaks who would win in a no hold barred fight between van halen and please note i did not say van hagar and metallica please show your work take that to the bank brohans
That's it. I'm changing all my Baby Jesus jokes to Baby Lars.Van Halen - Metallica would be one man short while Lars sat in a corner crying.at their absolute peaks who would win in a no hold barred fight between van halen and please note i did not say van hagar and metallica please show your work take that to the bank brohans
Dave could also distract Metallica with his assless chaps and catch them off guard.Van Halen.
Diamond Dave would juke 'em all night with the shuck and jive.
Dude is menacing.
Guessing those "not you"s are probably CEOs today.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

Lars shut down Napster.
but no one is standing up for metallica
Hetfield would hop into his new, huge Ford F-150 with the American flags on poles in the back and pull out of the parking lot before the fight even began to join an insurrection of some sort in progress
Hetfield would disembowel Michael Anthony and Alex VH before anyone even knew what was happening. The rest would be easy, even with Lars curled up in the corner crying.
SWC said peak Metallica, not current dumb-*** Metallica.Hetfield would hop into his new, huge Ford F-150 with the American flags on poles in the back and pull out of the parking lot before the fight even began to join an insurrection of some sort in progress
Oh come on. Everyone knows you just throw 'em in a bowl on your nightstand.You gotta hand it to SWC when it comes to topics. Heavyweight stuff, not whether you sort your coins in alphabetical order.
Correct. Van Halen win this easy.DLR I think practices multiple martial arts and has high belts in them
metallica is in the running for angriest person alive the same way my fat uncle louey is in the running much like louey who sits on his porch and complains about the world and those damn kids metallica is literally the four karens of the apoloclypse prosecuting kids who shared thier quote music endquote and if you want proof look no further than hatfelds cigar company hell they might as well come up with metallica golf clothing line what a bunch of posers hell the only thing they get mad about it when the dow jones industrial dips two perecent win a fight again van halen hell no theyd be lucky to win against a rec u8 tee ball team take that to the bank bromigosReally? 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.
Best line. I'd like @SWC 's permission to use it.
easily because all that proves is that men at work could also beat the hell out of metallafraud take that to the bank brochacho

This is interesting, I don't know Metallica weren't revered by most metal/thrash fansWhat'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).
No! Then the batter knows what's coming

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?

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.
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.This is interesting, I don't know Metallica weren't revered by most metal/thrash fansWhat's odd about that is Metallica used to be the underdog's underdog.

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.
tl;dr-
downhill after Cliff.
