  1. A photo of Lars reading reviews of the song has been leaked
  2. Heavy metal isn't really about nice tunes you can hum along to. Heavy metal is supposed to be challenging to listen to, it shouldn't be easy listening background music. I've been a metal fan for a very long time and I have never listened to some Crowbar or Suicidal Tendencies and thought "if only this had a more catch tune and maybe a major key to cheer it up a bit". If I ever have those thoughts then I'll trade in my record collection for Michael Buble's greatest hits.
  3. Holy crap! For nearly $600 you get a general admission ticket, one item of merchandise and one drink. Even Ticketmaster would think that's a bit much.
  4. I saw them recently and bought a few sets for my daughters school because she always complains their bass strings are dead. I tried out a set and they're entirely adequate. Nothing fancy but they get the job done and sound fine. I do want to avoid the waste of buying 5 string sets though. Saving the planet one g string at a time.
  5. When was the last time they released something really exceptional? The sort of quality you'd expect of legends?
  6. So general opinion is not positive then?
  7. Is premature ejacula-shun an age related problem? Erectile disfunc-shun certainly can be. The two problems are rarely combined.
  8. Why would they make the drums so loud when they're not interesting or creative? Bass is too quiet again. Metallica used to make great music, these days it's all just average. With the exception of Lars they're all extremely good musicians (even Lars is good, but not great) but I think they ran out of ideas a long time ago.
  9. Should have said, round wound, standard length, nothing fancy.
  10. Does anyone make a 4 string set suitable for BEAD tunings? Something like .130 - .065 would do it. I'm currently buying 5 string sets be it seems a bit wasteful buying that .045 g string that I'll never fit. Saving the planet and a few quid with one less string.
  11. For me there's nothing special about Fenders. They're just a solid do it all tool. They sound decent on anything from jazz to doom metal and you can make a P or J cut through about anything. That's also the reason I'd probably only buy Mexican P bass rather than a fancy one.
  12. I didn't want a Fender because everyone and their mum plays a Fender. I recently bought a Mexican P bass and now I understand why everyone plays them.
  13. Feel the pain au chocolate - Dinosaur Jr
