The Big Four

As if you needed another reason not to go to Coachella.

This shit is going down right after it.

Metallica
Slayer
Megadeath
Anthrax

One stage.

I did not grow up on this shit and actually only started fucking with thrash in the last decade. That being said I also do not fucks with Anthrax or Megadeath (mostly cause Dave Mustaine is a mark) to be fair Lars (Metallica's drummer) is a mark too.

I'd say this is sort of a Rock The Bells for white people, but only white people go to Rock The Bells (well them and asians) so that is a poor metaphor.

At any rate it's cool to see four egotistical bands set aside their petty beef for ridiculous amounts of money.

Thx Algot

Metallica

So I just found out about this underground band called Metallica.

Fuck You Lars U Mad?

This image has been on here before, but as far as I'm concerned this is one of the most brilliant pieces of graphic design ever conceived.

I Heart The Internets

This sign needs to be more descriptive. Are we talking Cliff Burton Metallica? Or we talking post Cliff Burton Metallica.

It is a huge difference.

Why?

Because if it is post Cliff Burton Metallica then the only difference between that Metallica and Miley Cyrus is one of them gets their period once a month and the other has been pretending like they do for the last 2 decades.

What did we learn kids?

Metal is chess not checkers.

Metallica "Kill 'Em All"

As Hallow's Eve approaches us I thought I'd keep with the metal thing and post up some more face melting shit.

This album dropped when I was all of 3 years old. My older sister probably had it as she had all things metal. My first tape purchased was Guns N' Roses "Appetite For Destruction" mainly because of her influence over my tastes at the time.



This little gem was just a bonus image I found while searching for the album cover. Nice.


This is a pretty rad story about the original title and art work for what would become "Kill 'Em All."

Taken from Wikipedia:
The band initially planned to title the album Metal Up Your Ass, and it would boast a cover featuring a toilet bowl with a hand clutching a dagger emerging from it. However, Megaforce urged them to change it and they agreed, switching to Kill 'Em All. This time the cover featured the shadow of a hand letting go of a bloodied hammer. Cliff Burton is credited with coming up with the name Kill 'Em All (referring to timid record distributors) as a response to the whole situation.



This was the original title and cover that the band submitted.

SDTW posting up Metallica? Yup.

Play the second track and see if it doesn't make you want to punch a cop square in the face.

Personally, after seeing that documentary that they produced THEMSELVES I sort of thought these dudes were dicks. Well mostly Lars, but old Metallica is still pretty epic. They have the whole "armored knight in deep thought" sound that they throw in before the riffs that get all all agro and that's what makes me enjoy it so much.

Get brutal.
