re: #565 Ray in TX

wow.

Heavy metal is just another musical format that people write lyrics for. Early Metallica was VERY heavy for its time and the band wrote a lot of smart songs.

Ever since the Beatles popularized the 4-man format, almost every rock band has technically been “high school garage music.”

heavy metal is a marginal offshoot of rock and roll…wow…nobody will even remember Metalica 25 yrs from now…their contribution to the greater picture is little…unless our children are as braindead as their parents who dig that crap
