All of my favourite 'tallica stuff was done early in their career, but that doesn't mean that I won't listen to newer stuff. A band that's been around as long as Metallica are in the impossible position of either putting out the same sounding record until they call it quits or trying new things and risking alienating their established fanbase.
I'd rather have a band that stretches and challenges itself to grow than listen to the same E minor pentatonic riff for the rest of my days.
Different strokes and all that.
Update: bit the bullet and sent it off to be doctored by Gamer Tech in York. It's not back yet but the communications regarding its progress have been clear.
I’m doing Queen songs at the moment too, but more 70’s ‘flat key’ stuff (somebody to live, bo’ rap, don’t stop me now) just to learn how to read again after the ‘brain drain’ of long covid.
t strictly DISCO but I'm not one to pass up the opportunity to post something from the canon of Frank Zappa.
I didn't post the album version 'cos it's just a bit sterile compared to this great live version.
