Some Kind Of Monster
 

Iwas reading my husband's Maxim today..(yes I do read it if only to know who my competition is in my hubby's dreams)...and it seems

Metallica is releasing a movie to theaters called "Some Kind of Monster" this month where the band namely Lars Ulrich and Kirk Hammett air their dirty laundry..

Okay so I am thrilled cause you all know that I am a HUGE METALLICA fan but Lars said something interesting....
"A film like this couldn't of existed 25 years ago, when rock was about mystery and mythification..."So what do you guys think has rock lost it's mystery and is this a good thing or bad...?????

I heard about that

Cool. Is it a TV movie, or in theaters? Metallica rocks.


H-D :pimp:

In theatres!!! Yes Metallica RULES!!! Anyone besides me seen them live?? They are incrediable!!

I just saw this thread today. I got exited when I heard you reading Maxim. When I saw it was about Metallica... well yea.

I soooo can't wait for this movie! A month ago one, of the guitar mags had a DVD promo of it and it looks pretty cool. The reviews have been kind as well. I love Metallica. I saw them once last year and I'm going to two shows this year! As to your question, goddess_bb, I think that yes, rock is more in your face and upfront than it was a few decades ago. I think a lot of bands were into the occult and stuff and that lent itself to more of a mystical feel. Still, I like the honesty that some of the bands have shown over over the years, though I think that a lot of today's music is a little whiny. It's just evolution.

LOL @ mullet as usual you make me laugh and then you say something that worries me...not a fan huh?? That is too bad...

Dogstar..always the voice of wisdom...Metallica is incrediable live, I never saw Creed..who was better??

I think you are right of the bands being more mysterious..they almost didn't seem human, I think that is why they were so misunderstood-called the devils music or accused of making kids commit suicide..you don't hear those things anymore like you did in say the mid 1980's..and amen so many bands today are such whinners they drive me batty..it takes ALOT for me to even be interested in a new band..I stick with the "REAL" stuff..Metallica, Zombie, System, Korn..etc..and yes let's not forget mood willing--Creed..

PS thanks guys for posting..people don't like my threads I think it's cause I ask them to think..oh well

I have just one thing to say:

"If I haven't had music in my life there's a good chance I could be dead... And... I'd much rater be alive!" - James Hetfield
