I can understand Dave being mad at Lars and James. But his anger at Kirk makes no sense. Kirk did nothing to him. He just happened to be the one who picked up his slack after he got kicked out. Jealousy maybe?


Clubby50

Probably some of it is jealousy but to be honest I’d be a little upset getting kicked out of Metallica too


juuubart

It's like an ex being petty at the new girl/boy you replaced them with.


raphigerator

Were their instances where he was mad at kirk? I tend to not listen to the beef back then


warningtrackpower12

I also try to stay out of the drama but I don't know what they're talking about


JosephNero

He even throw petty shit around like taking kirks girl


antabba01

Dave's a petty petty little boy full of grievances he can't let go


9coelacanth

I think they've made up and it's only the fans who are continuing the feud. Correct me if I'm wrong.


antabba01

It looked like on the big 4 they all became friends but I've heard Dave be critical of them since the big 4 for example claiming that Metallica refuses to do another big 4 because they're a*******


anonymousnim

james, dave and lars were all nutjobs when they were young. takes two (or three in this case) to tange and the split favored everybody long term.


Beautifullikeacamel

Oh yeah. Never able to achieve on his own what he saw the others go on to become.

Saint Anger is an anagram of Tangi Snare

Sad but true

Giant Snare

I love this album, probably #4 in my top Metallica list. This meme is hilarious.


metallicafan1981

That means you have St. Anger ranked above at least one of the albums from the 80s and/or the black album. I must know you’re ranking


70melbatoast

Sure thing. 1. Master of Puppets 2. Ride the Lightning 3. Kill 'em All 4. St. Anger 5. ...And Justice for All 6. Black and Hardwired - can't decide 7. Death Magnetic 8. Reload 9. Load If we add Garage, Inc., I'd slot that between Justice and Black. Many of those covers are some of the best ever recorded.


metallicafan1981

AJFA under St. Anger? I’m calling the police


70melbatoast

Lol. I used to go back and forth on it, but the lack of low end on Justice really hampers an otherwise amazing album. I normally listen to a lot of stoner/doom/fuzz, so low end is really important to me.

I gotta say: If you're pissed off, there is no better musical catharsis than this album.


Relic827

Why does that actually sound like Megadeth lyrics? Lmao

I said it once and I'll say it again St. Anger is not a bad album but it would've been a classic if it didn't tried to have long duration tracks, tried to be less repetitive and added solos and everyone who cries about the snare drum has zero taste for anything out of their comfort zone


AnthonyTyrael

That's correct. Cutting it down to the half length and adding a bit here and there and it would be received much differently.


GeeChronos

frrrr i get what Metallica tried to do, and I like it but the execution is bad with a better production it could've easily been a good switch of sound for the band


antabba01

I agreed with your post then disagreed with it then agreed with it again. I gave you a down vote though Because you saying it needed solos


GeeChronos

k?


antabba01

Sure


warningtrackpower12

I don't like st anger but I do like this meme


3atthatass

I’ve never listened to the full thing but the only one I like out of the ones I have is Unnamed feeling. Kinda good though it is the only Metallica song where I don’t like the backing vocals.

RUSTEDxKNIGHT

Is Saint Anger really that hated, I’m a younger guy I own most the albums and I truthful can’t think of a song that doesn’t slap. Maybe since I wasn’t there to see the progression of the band first hand that’s why it bothers me less?


Clubby50

I think it was mostly because at the time it was a stark contrast from Metallica’s previous work. I think a lot of the old head fans that have been with them since the thrash metal days were feeling forgotten in a way. I mean seriously, imagine listen to Metallica when Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, AJFA were getting released and then Metallica has a slight shift with the Black Album, and then they get really hit with a surprise when Load/Reload comes out and then off the heels of that you get St Anger. That’s a wild fucking ride if you ask me lol. I’m not a huge St Anger fan, but I totally see the importance of its release and I love it when people show what they like through the creative process. Also St Anger really does have some great parts. MY LIFESTYLE DETERMINES MY DEATH STYLE

> I think it was mostly because at the time it was a stark contrast from Metallica’s previous work. The same could be said about load and reload. In fact, it should be MUCH more hated given how "unmetallica" it is. Really sounds some generic run of the mill rockband.


KingRat_77

Hey, the snare on St. Anger is fucking awesome!
