Hugely overrated????? you surely can dislike Metallica , but by saying that they are overrated you're only showing your lack of knowledge about rock history!!! Metallica has a huge influence in music history!!!! Liking it or not you must respect them!!!!! Metallica rules and their new record is f*** great!

LOL come on, Metallica may have once been great but now .... no not so much.
And no you don't need to respect them either, especially if you don't like their music.

Can you please tell me what do you like to listen...... cause there are certain things that you may not like , like Metallica , but if you read any book about the history of music i assure you , you'll see metallica's name on it. For instance , just like Ronsauce said i personally don't like Beatles but that doesn't mean that i would disrespect them , that's ignorance!!! Madonna???? I hate her music , but i won't say she's a big trash , she has values in music history. Now... if we talk about those i-am-richer-than-you-and-i-have-more-pussy-than-you-and-my diamond-neckless-is-more-expensive-than-yours-and-my-car-is-more-fancy-than-yours rappers shit.... this you shouldn't respect!

Unless it's fine for me to say The Beatles are overrated as well.
They are, aren't they? Mindless crap...
:D
As long as they don't include the video for 'One' as an added *bonus*, (unless they REALLY want to start a mass suicide...), this should be a good addition to the series. Any details on the song list?

The beatles changed music. Metallica didnt. Nuff said
How'd the Beatles change music? There were tons of bands like them, but they just happened to catch a break. It's not like their singing, playing, or writing was any better than other similar bands at the time.
That sounds pretty ignorant doesn't it? Thinking Metallica isn't good or wasn't influential is just as stupid.
If you're going to seriously argue about whether or not Metallica was influential you're showing your ignorance to not just metal but rock n roll as a whole.
Of course they had an influence, but I think people give them too much credit, they didn't have anywhere near the influence the Beetles, rolling stones or black sabbath had IMO.
I bet the guy chose the word overrated without even thinking. If you seriously dont have respect for their musical background you suck.
You can say you dont like them, but its the wording you chose what makes you look like you dont know what the hell you're talking about.

That could just be a function of being around longer therefore having more time to be an influence.

I've come a looong way listening to all kinds of music. When I started listening to Metal it was Metallica that dragged me into it. There are other great Metalbands and all their sub-genres. For instance there is Tool (or if you want to be a perv there is Mastodon), which is a great band on its own right and its own niche, and they are technicaly and artisticaly WAAAAAAAY beyond Matallica.
But Metallica chatched the masses, they made Metal pretty much mainstream, they made more people listen to that kind of music. They achieved a lot, saying they are overrated is very ignorant. It's the same people who think Halo:CE for the Xbox was overrated, but it just sooo isn't.

Thats like saying that Britney Spears isnt overrated either, since her music too has had a huge impact on music as a form of mass-produced business..?
I dont mind if you love Metallica, but if someone else thinks they are overrated, it has nothing to do with how much merchandize they have sold for how many $$$$$$, or how many bands try to mimic them.
Overrated refers to the general rating of the band, the general opinion.
The general opinion is that Metallica pwns, if i disagree with that i will call them overrated :)
