I am sitting here & listening to Leper Messiah from Metallica's Master Of Puppets album.
Now while every one loves the song Master of puppets. I am not the same it's a great song but for some damned reason this song rocks my world so much more. Now, while, This whole album is the bomb, Particularly when it comes to the area of heavy metal. There is only one other band on the planet that even comes close to Metallica and for the exception of the early albums of Megadeath there would be no bands that could hold a torch to them.
Metallica rule's now & they will probably do so an eternity from now. I feel that even in the future that Metallica will still rule the area of heavy metal. Megadeath is great Pantera and Slayer are good but they are not now nor will they ever be as good as Metallica.
Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden, Helloween, and Black Sabbath are in the area of Metal Glam Rock. They were showy and they rock but again they are no where near the greatness that is Metallica.
I've lost my Metallica albums & I've had them stolen, and yet, I still return to buy them even now years later. When it comes to Metallica the songs Leper Messiah & Nothing Else matters are my 2 top picks for the best of 3 Metal Rocks songs that I have ever seen or heard performed live..
