This article represents the deluded mind of an-overly critical fool completely lacking in any sort of integrity or pride. The article's only purpose is that of link bait, and in that capacity it obviously works quite well, but the author is a man without soul...
He, from beginning to end, does nothing but criticise the band Metallica. Now, while I agree that there is a lot Metallica can be criticised for, his attack is an old one, he's flogging a dead horse.
We've all heard, over and over, the complaints about Metallica's attack on Napster all those years ago. We all know that a majority of the population seems to feel that the band should, after years of striving to make themselves into a household rock name in an industry that was almost impossible to succeed in, for some reason give their work away for free.
The author goes as far as to say that Metallica are has-beens, that no one cares about their up-coming album, Death Magnetic.
I hate to be the one to tell you Don, but Metallica don't have to try become rock legends, they already are rock legends. The only crime of which they are guilty is that of holding onto their old-school values and integrity. They don't hate music downloads, they hate the thought of putting work and effort into creating an album just to have a bunch of losers too cheap to buy it ripping it from the 'net and then distributing it amongst his friends.
Tell me Don, in doing all the in-depth research I'm sure you undertook for the writing of this article, did you at any point notice that Metallica are still one of the top searched-for names in music on the Internet today? Big thing for a bunch of has-beens. Perhaps you also failed to find out that wherever Metallica goes the crowds follow.. They've lost none of their ability to fill seats, stands and fair grounds my friend.
I criticise Metallica often, but even I wouldn't make the groundless claims you have the audacity to spout..
Do some research Don...
