I rank Metallica right under Led Zeppelin in the rock competion.


Overall I rank the Beatles as no.1, Zep no.2, Metallica no.3 based on songwriting, originality, performance and vocals.

Liked Rush, was never a big Metallica fan.  Admitedly, Rush was a bit anticeptic, but Metallica had a tendancy to be at the exact opposite end of that spectrum.  Never wore either groups black t-shirts.  Maybe that's what I despised about Metallica... it wasn't their music, but their fans.  Talk about being the biggest group of clones on the face of the earth.

Guess I don't mind seeing people act like clones... as long as part of the clone pier pressure involved showering once in a while.

Nah.. all the rush fans had "ziljan" t-shirts.

Surely you aren't comparing the black tee metallica army to that of the rush fans?  Granted, most of the rush fans were wearing black tee's too... but they all said "Metallica" on them. ;)

seeing as how i started this post i gotta step in a min and say:

a band with songs about faries in the trees compared to BATTERY.... hmmmm who's the "queer" one?

this was meant to be a bash on MTV & the hosers that tried to do Metallica songs on it. not the band being "honored" :(

from now on all subtlities are out the door... the gloves are off.. no letting the "boards" interpret and see what they think. you are all wrong compared to me!
I don't know what to put here yet.

I dunno Nuke.  I'd put Floyd over Metallica in those categories.

Rush sounds queer because their lead vocals whines non-stop.


yep.. their instrumentals are the best

but I still like Rush at times.. don't figure

but how can one campare Rush to Metallica
apples and oranges IMO, nothing to compare.

as far as musicianship you can't believe Metallica has that going for them.. their stuff is fun to listen to and I love it but they are NOT great musicians by any stretch..
Rush on the other hand, are all top notch..
but I still prefer to listen to Metallica at times.

Rock and Roll isn't always about the talent..
it;s about the soul
