official battle of the bands: metallica vs. simple plan
 
this should be some funny **** (metallica all the way)

The Defibrillator 11-06-2003 06:37 PM

alas, I never got into Metallica. Simple plan is definitely not one of my favorite bands ever, but I personally like em better.

Simple Plan = Horrible Flavour-of-the-month. Metallica = gods. 'Nuff Said.

Metallica used to be cool. Now, they suck. Their new basist looks like he just escaped from Montana State Prison. Also, when you watch the DVD the comes with St. Anger, there is this part where Kirk obviously falls down. They dont actually show the fall, but the band stops playing and laughs. The only reasons they wouldn't show it would be A) As Kirk is playing, he starts to lose his balance, shuffling backwards like and old man, and falls over some cords. Or B) He jumps in the air to try to do a hard core move, and just falls down, again like an old man. Also, what is up with the lyrics? James does most of the lyrics, and since he got out of rehab, they suck. I think that the best thing he could of done for his fans is to keep on drinking. :x

Metallica is definitely one of the best bands ever. What I really hate about them is their serious media overkill. When St. Anger was out you couldn't turn on your TV without seeing them and that got seriously on my nerves.

Metallica isn't washed up yet.i personally enjoyed St. Anger. But their new bassist looks to much like Fieldy from Korn,atleast his hair does. As far as Simple Plan. This whole emo,wear a tie without a shirt stuff just isn't moving me. Metallica wins.

Love Metallica, liked St. Anger (even though it's not my favorite by far), never heard anything by Simple Plan. Metallica wins.

Yes.


That sums it up perfectly.

Simple Plan has only produced one gay song.

Metallica have produced three gay albums.

Simple Plan rule

Albrecht 11-09-2003 08:54 PM

your odd.

ZariusTwo 11-09-2003 08:59 PM

Most Post-Black Album Metallica fans tend to be worse

Or maybe, just maybe, some of us don't judge a band by its earlier work and prefer to judge objectively. Load, ReLoad and St. Anger don't sound like older Metallica, but there are still plenty of good songs on all three.

I'll never understand people who only want a band to have one distinct sound. That's so limiting. I'm reminded of what Axl Rose said when the Use Your Illusion records came out and a reporter asked him what he thought of people who didn't like it because of the departure in style from Appetite for Destruction: "I'm sick of 'Appetite'. It's a good record, but I'm past that point in my life now. I'm sick of it, I want to move on. I refuse to make the same exact record over and over again for the rest of my life like so many other bands do."

Words of wisdom, t'be sure. But then Mr. Rose is a genius anyways.

I agree with every ****ing word. Wherever you have a look around Metallica is bashed. Bashed for what? For not recording a new "Kill 'em All"-album. That's sooo stupid. Ok, the songs on the old albums probably were better than almost all of the new stuff but that doesn't make "Load", "Reload" and "St.Anger" bad albums. Actually I can't think of any band which came up in the last three years which could write as good songs as Metallica. They were one of the most creative music acts in the 80s, is it so hard to believe that they wanted to try a new sound for another reason than money (although the money made it definitely easier :evilgrin: )? Geez... :roll:

why emo wins
 
Simple Plan sort of sucks. But they will always win against Metallica because Metallica is uberlame. First of all, what kind of a band name is Metallica? My band is called Jesse Helms's Dirty Jockstrap. Now that is a good band name. Second of all, the guys in a simple plan are ridiculously hot. And I think it's important that people in good bands be hot. Metallica is not hot, and have really greasy hair, so greasy in fact that I'd be afraid to light a romantic candle for fear their locks would go up in flames. I know I should judge on the "quality of their music" but when a battle of the bands offers only bad options, I have to go with hot. Plus, emo is awesome, even though simple plan is not really that emo. My vote for the winner in this fight is Weezer.
